Judging from his demeanor, this new king seems to be a gentle person.

Just like his attire, he is a knight full of a sense of justice.

At the same time, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, "Finally, there's a normal person among the Demon Kings!"

"Doni, Andre, could you please step out for a moment?" Arthur said calmly, his eyes slightly narrowed.

"Yes, sir." Andre Rivera bowed and replied.

Salvatore Doni, also belatedly realizing this, scratched his head and said, "513." "Oh right... You probably don't know yet what 'Authority' you've usurped. So take your time to experience it. Once you're familiar with the 'Authority,' we'll find a time to have a contest."

"Thunder Lord, please don't do this!" Andre Rivera adjusted his glasses and said in a deep voice, "If the two kings were to fight, it could easily cause serious damage to the city."

"Don't worry!" Salvatore Doni patted Andre Rivera on the shoulder and laughed heartily, "Arthur knows a kind of barrier that can materialize mental landscapes. Even if we fight fiercely inside the barrier, it won't cause any damage to reality."

"Oh... my dear friend, when are you going to teach me that skill?" Salvatore Doni leaned on the edge of the bed, his eyes shining as he looked at Arthur, asking expectantly, "If I learn your skill, I can go and fight other people of my kind without any worries, and I won't have to be afraid of being scolded."

"I see--"

Upon hearing Salvatore Doni's words, a white light flashed across Andre Rivera's glasses as he thought to himself.

No wonder the Naples Garibaldi Square remained completely undamaged despite the birth of the new king.

I never imagined that His Majesty the new king would possess such a secret technique.

"Get out... You don't have that talent." Arthur rolled his eyes and bluntly refused.

"Ah... I'm so sad!" Salvatore Doni feigned injury, then scratched his head nonchalantly and grinned, "Well... never mind! I'll just ask you for it during our next duel."

Upon hearing this, Arthur rolled his eyes again.

He's definitely not suited to dealing with this talkative and carefree person.

"Well... you should study your 'Authority' carefully, then we won't bother you anymore." Salvatore Doni put his hands behind his head and left the room.

"Lord Arthur, I must take my leave now." Having learned Arthur's name from Salvatore Doni, Andre Rivera changed his form of address and bowed.

After Salvatore Doni and Andre Rivera left, the room returned to calm.

Arthur finally had time to examine the changes in his body.

Previously, when I was distracted, I vaguely sensed changes within myself, but now that I have fully immersed my consciousness into my body, I find that these changes are absolutely terrifying.

First, there's Arthur's body!

Whether they are 'Heretic Gods' or 'God Slayer', their physical constitutions are extremely abnormal.

Not only does it possess secret arts such as Immunity True Magic, Taoist Arts, and Onmyōdō, but its defensive power is also harder than Diamond!

Arthur's powerful strikes, capable of splitting mountains and cleaving seas, were easily blocked and crushed.

Only by using Forbidden Spell or Divine Artifacts against the gods, or by casting spells within their bodies, can one harm God Slayer.

If Arthur's previous physique was as weak as a sheep, without the addition of 'Mana Burst (A)' and 'Armament Haki', he wouldn't dare to be touched by any martial arts expert.

Now, Arthur has no doubt that if Kaido were in front of him, he could rip him open with a single punch.

The difference in dimensions, merely an improvement in physical constitution, granted Arthur the power to fight against any enemy in the vast ocean.

Furthermore, Arthur's Mana (cursed power) tripled.

Moreover, this was only the first 'Heretic God' he had killed. If Arthur were to kill more gods, his Mana (cursed power) would become even greater.

Arthur vaguely sensed that he could now completely remove the seals on the Excalibur's and the 'Rhongomyniad' from more than seven levels.

My mind drifted slightly, landing on the template in my mind.

Name: Arthur Pendragon

Height: 181cm

Weight:69kg

Strength:--

Durable:--

Agile:--

Mana:--

Lucky Lu Hai

Divinity:--

Inherent Skills: Attribute Concealment), Immunity), Language), Instinct (A), Mana Burst (EX), Giant Beast Hunting (A), Charisma (D)

Skills: Observation Haki, Armament Haki, Conqueror's Haki, Swordsmanship, Spear Technique

Authority: Sun

Noble Phantasms: Excalibur (EX), Invisible Air (C), Rhongomyniad (EX), Avalon (EX)

These are Arthur's new attributes.

Compared to before, the difference is beyond description; it's terrifying.

In terms of overall strength, he is far superior to the previous Arthur.

First, there are the five-dimensional attributes. Due to Attribute Concealment), even Arthur cannot view them through the template.

But he could clearly sense that, apart from luck, his five-dimensional attributes were also...

Especially in terms of strength and endurance, it has probably increased more than tenfold.

The physique of God Slayer is practically indestructible.

However, it should no longer be called a five-dimensional attribute; it should be called a six-dimensional attribute.

Because after slaying the 'Heretic God' and becoming God Slayer, Arthur gained another attribute.

That is divinity!

Divinity is also unviewable due to Attribute Concealment).

Aside from the six-dimensional attributes, the biggest change is in the inherent skills.

The player now has an additional Language)!

Language), as the name suggests, means being able to understand all written languages and all spoken languages...

This is another unique ability of the God Slayer, besides their powerful Immunity constitution.

Instinct (A) remained unchanged, but Mana Burst (A) underwent a dramatic change, its level actually increasing to (EX).

However, considering his God Slayer physique, Arthur wasn't surprised.

Besides the existing skills and skill sections mentioned above, what caught Arthur's attention the most was the newly added section— Authority.

In an almost impossible miracle, humanity successfully slays the 'Heretic God,' bathes in divine blood, and then usurps the 'Heretic God's' Authority, becoming the Demon King of the earth— the God Slayer (Campione).

Arthur slew the 'Steel Hero God', the legendary dragon-slaying hero 'Perseus'.

Pandora sacrificed a 'Heretic God' to transfer the power of 'Perseus' to Arthur, making him the new God Slayer.

This power is incomplete.

Arthur received only one Authority from Perseus.

That is -- the Sun!

The so-called Sun does not refer to using the fire of the Sun.

Rather, it is the Authority of the Sun god!

Perseus also had another name hidden behind him: "Mithras".

And if we trace the origins of 'Mithras', it is the master to whom the 'Never Defeated god of war' Verethragna served— 'Mithras'.

Perseus's 'arrow that always hits its mark,' the incantation 'At this moment, with the Shemesh's Blessing, I shoot this Word of Power,' and even his final resurrection ability, all come from the power of 'Mithra.'

These three forces are all Authority — the Sun.

This 'Authority' wasn't very effective for Arthur.

The only thing that's somewhat helpful is that 'guaranteed kill arrow'!

However, in some respects, this ability is nothing short of miraculous.

Because of this Authority, the 'Sun,' Arthur can be resurrected!

Yes, that's right!

Because of this 'Authority', Arthur can be resurrected once a day, which is equivalent to having a resurrection coin.

Although after being resurrected, their condition will be weaker than ever before.

But it gives you an extra trump card to save your life!

5.1 In terms of attack, the 'Infallible Arrow' is inferior to Arthur's True Name Release.

However, its special effect is an extraordinary level of 'Authority'.

"I've hit the jackpot—" Arthur couldn't help but smile and murmured softly.

He did not usurp Perseus's Authority over dragons or mounts, but rather usurped the Authority of Mithra.

If Arthur could see the world, he would surely be overjoyed!

"God Slayer, you seem quite pleased with yourself."

Suddenly, a clear, melodious sound reached Arthur's ears.

'Mana Burst (EX)--'

The conditioned reflex to the appearance of his 'natural enemy' caused Arthur's entire body to be covered in a layer of golden fluorescence, and powerful magical energy spread out.

Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw a girl even smaller than Pandora appear at the balcony window of the luxurious room.

She had long, silvery-white hair that drooped to her ears, a delicate and lovely face that was expressionless, and a layer of purple fluorescence covering her body as she stared directly at Arthur.

"No need to be so tense, I'm not here to fight you," the girl said calmly, "But you could also consider it a declaration of war."

"I am a goddess named 'Athena'..."

Chapter 332 The Angry King with the Ahoge

"I am a goddess named Athena..." Athena said calmly, "Dragons are my servants. This time, thanks to you, that dragon-slaying hero Perseus did not succeed. I have come here specifically to get to know you!"

"Of course, it's not that I'm no match for that guy. I just haven't found the lost 'snake' yet."

"Once I have found my 'snake,' I will come to fight you, God Slayer!"

"..."

After saying this, Athena disappeared from the room, leaving Arthur speechless.

Athena's words are easy to understand!

She wasn't there to provoke Arthur, nor was she repaying kindness with enmity... it was simply the arrogance between gods.

After all, no matter what, it was because of Arthur that the 'dragon' wasn't killed by Perseus.

Dragons are Athena's servants, so she essentially passively accepted Arthur's favor.

As the 'mother' of dragons, she was powerless to protect her children.

In the eyes of the gods, it is a disgrace.

Therefore, Athena's arrival was a declaration of war against Arthur.

Once she finds her 'snake', she will come to prove her power.

This could be described as willfulness, or it could be seen as the arrogance of a deity.

Arthur understood Athena's meaning, which is why he didn't directly activate his 'Reality Marble' and start a war against this 'Heretic God'.

"Well... looks like things are going to get much more lively from now on." For some reason, Arthur suddenly revealed an excited smile.

But the next second, he suddenly woke up!
