"So what about you? What is your Authority?" Lucrezia Zola asked Chen Fan.
"I don't have any Authority. My power was born from science, not mythology. They're completely different."
"Science? What a novel word. It seems I'll never be able to understand it."
"It would be best if you didn't. It could hurt you." Chen Fan knew that this world was ultimately still a world of magic. It simply did not have a Science Side like Academy City. Yet science and magic were ultimately opposed; understanding it would cause one harm. After all, not everyone was Chen Fan.
I'm Just Stating a Fact
(I'm Just Stating a Fact)
"Are you worried about me?" Lucrezia Zola asked Chen Fan, putting on a shy and coy act.
Chen Fan casually waved one hand, his expression calm. "No, I'm just stating a fact."
"You're really tsundere. If you're worried about me, just say so! I'll reward you properly."
"No, I really am stating a fact."

While Chen Fan and Lucrezia Zola were chatting, Sasha Dejan Stardat Voban, the elderly God Slayer who had arrived after Chen Fan killed two gods, also received the news.
In a gloomy palace, a beautiful girl knelt on one knee on the ground and reported to Sasha Dejan Stardat Voban.
"The Seventh King? And the one who forcibly snatched away what was supposed to be mine? It seems necessary to meet him, so that he understands the consequences of stealing someone else's food." Sasha Dejan Stardat Voban's eyes glowed green. When he had rushed over, he found nothing; the battle had already ended. He had thought one of the gods had won their battle, but now he learned that the food about to reach his mouth had been plucked away by someone else. Naturally, he was displeased.
