Pandora closed her eyes, pulled Kusanagi Shizuka over, and placed her in the center of the ceremony.

Not only their souls, but their bodies were also pulled in.

"Here it is...?"

When Kusanagi Shizuka woke up, she was lying groggily on Ming Ge's lap.

"This is my Starry World."

Ming Ge said, "The battlefield is a projection of the stars, and this place is equivalent to the inside of my body."

"Inside the body?!"

Kusanagi Shizuka opened her eyes in surprise, but looked much more composed than usual.

"Congratulations, you have achieved the feat of slaying a god and become the seventh Campione!."

Ming Ge patted Kusanagi Shizuka's head and laughed, "From today onwards, even the Japan Prime Minister will have to watch his step, and you can even replace him if you want."

Is that so?

Kusanagi Shizuka tilted her head.

"Yes, the Campione! possesses the power to destroy an island nation; this is the privilege of those who possess power."

Ming Ge said, "However, we should also thank Voban and Luo Hao. If it weren't for the fact that they used their brutal methods to intimidate countless people in the past, a newly Campione! like you might have been used as a toy by schemers."

"Hmm... that's not hard to imagine."

Kusanagi Shizuka thought of the unique characteristics of Japan and couldn't help but shake her head.

She has absolutely no confidence in her own country, which is completely different from a domesticated chicken that's like a pig.

"However, I was able to do this entirely thanks to your weapon; otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to win."

Kusanagi Shizuka asked earnestly, "Master, do I now have the qualifications to stand by your side?"

"Standing beside me... I've never needed any qualifications."

Kusanagi Shizuka seemed to have noticed something, Ming Ge chuckled in response, "Perhaps I'm some important figure from somewhere, or perhaps you're just an ordinary person, but as long as we're of one mind, there will be no distance between us."

"Never from beginning to end."

"Is that so... I feel relieved now." Kusanagi Shizuka's mind was slightly hazy.

My body is in a lot of pain, no less than during the previous battles when it was constantly tearing and healing, and the process was just as intense.

After receiving Ming Ge's response, she couldn't help but relax.

"Hang in there, this is the ceremony to reach the top."

Ming Ge gently kissed her forehead and said.

"Um... Master, can you hold me?"

Kusanagi Shizuka felt the warmth of Ming Ge's lips and asked with a slight smile.

In the original work, Kusanagi Shizuka appears to be somewhat arrogant, but that's not actually the case.

She didn't see Kusanagi Godou as a brother-complex character, but rather as someone who was afraid he would become the kind of scumbag who always brought women home like 'Grandpa'.

Home is a shared home for the siblings. Regardless of family members, the fact that the brother always brings other women home is tantamount to invading his sister's territory.

Animals might even fight each other, so Kusanagi Shizuka's dissatisfaction wasn't due to arrogance, but rather helplessness.

Furthermore, since Kusanagi Shizuka in this world is two years older than in the original work, she has even less of a tsundere element.

A series of encounters, along with Ming Ge's reliability and connection to fate, brought Kusanagi Shizuka's dependence on and affection for Ming Ge to its peak.

"Certainly."

Ming Ge picked her up and placed her in his arms.

Feeling the warmth of Ming Ge's chest, Kusanagi Shizuka felt a strong sense of security.

Even the pain emanating from my body seemed distant, suppressed by the sweetness in my heart.

Erica, who was walking from a distance, slowed her pace upon seeing this scene.

"Is the battle over?"

Erica asked in a low voice.

"It's over."

Ming Ge chuckled lightly, "As you can see, the child succeeded."

"Success was inevitable... I didn't expect your weapon to be so powerful."

Erica shook her head and said, "It's called a subordinate god, yet it allows an ordinary girl to fight against a disobedient god head-on, and the opponent is none other than the God King."

"Not only that, I think... Verethragna is already dead."

This is easy to guess. Ming Ge's sword possesses that level of power, yet he lent it to Kusanagi Shizuka while he fought against Verethragna.

If he didn't have the power, why would he lend out the sword?

Now that Ming Ge has appeared, but Verethragna is nowhere to be seen, the answer is obvious.

"You guessed right."

Ming Ge nodded and said, "You do have some cleverness after all."

Erica fell silent, a sense of unease rising within her.

A subtle pang of jealousy prompted her to ask, "Why this child?"

"Compared to this child, don't I, as a great knight, have more potential?"

"No, that's not right. Everything you're thinking is wrong." Ming Ge shook his head and said, "To become Campione!, you need talent, and this talent can even be called destiny. Without this destiny blessed by human reason, even if I give you a weapon, you may not succeed."

"Although Shizuka lacks magical talent, she possesses the ability to become a fool; this was decided from the very beginning."

To the gods, there is not much difference between ordinary people and great knights, because they pose no threat to them.
