Just as Kamakasu Toma and Mariya Yuri were conversing, a larger energy ripple, like a light shield, spread out from Soubu High School.
The slowly spreading light shield had a unique beauty, but it filled Kamakasu Toma and Mariya Yuri with immense dread, because even those who had never been exposed to any magic could sense the pure power.
This scene involuntarily reminded them of the divine power of the God of disobedience that rampaged across the land, the absurdity of a single thought being able to uproot a nation, completely disregarding everything else.
Yet, they had already confirmed that right where the explosion occurred, opposite them, there was indeed a God of disobedience, and it was the great Hercules, known for his bravery and strength in historical myths.
This looked like the prelude to a god's rampage. Yes, a prelude. No one believed that this small burst was the full extent of his power.
Although it sounds a bit disheartening, Kamakasu Toma and Mariya Yuri were actually planning to retreat. After all, knowing something is impossible but still doing it requires courage.
Moreover, in most cases, knowing something is impossible but still doing it has a clear purpose and can yield some benefit. But doing so in the current situation would be blindly courting death with absolutely no gain.
At least, neither Kamakasu Toma nor Mariya Yuri had such thoughts. After all, most of the people in the affected areas had already evacuated. Sacrificing their lives for a bit of property and possessions would be too much.
That wasn't their property; it was public property, no, most of it was even private property.
And this scene was witnessed by many. There's no need to mention those self-proclaimed ancient families; even some officials who were privy to the secrets quickly retreated, finding various reasons to go on business trips out of town.
Although doing so might lead to them being caught and facing disciplinary action or more severe punishment, their own lives were the most important.
After all, no one knew the exact situation here. The only known information revealed that the descending god might be Heracles.
But besides Heracles, were there any other gods? It was completely unknown. However, besides the existence of other gods, was there any other possibility?
Because they had never fantasized about other possibilities, these people didn't even dare to imagine in other directions.
At this moment, Qianshu Lian had arrived in a pure, pristine white world, as if no other colors existed in this world besides the one here.
But then, a rather petite yet uniquely beautiful loli girl appeared before Qianshu Lian.
The girl had a very slender figure, with a cute doll-like face and body that made one want to praise her. Her golden long hair was parted on both sides, and she wore a thin white dress.
However, more than anyone else, this girl had a more alluring, 'womanly' feeling.
"You are?" Qianshu Lian asked, somewhat puzzled.
"I am the mother of all Godslayer~" The girl in front of him quickly and joyfully approached Qianshu Lian.
"My dear child! Endure this momentary pain, for after the pain, you will gain endless glory and power."
"I thought I messed up and we both died together? I didn't expect someone could still save me?" Qianshu Lian continued to ask, somewhat puzzled.
"No~"
The girl shook her golden twin tails. "It was not my intervention that saved you from death, but your own courage and resistance."
"Hahaha, you're still the same!" The tall Heracles suddenly appeared, laughing, before Qianshu Lian and the girl. "Pandora—"
"What? This is Pandora?! That woman endowed with many characteristics by the gods. Speaking of which, the gods' aesthetics make me very worried!" Qianshu Lian said with great concern.
What on earth caused Pandora, who was shaped by the gods with numerous blessings and skills, to turn out like this?
Is this a distortion of divinity or a moral decay! All to be revealed—
Ahem, a slight cross-talk. Qianshu Lian shook his head, gradually came back to his senses, and asked coldly.
"Can you first explain what exactly is going on for me?"
"Of course, my beloved child~" Pandora said, looking at Qianshu Lian with loving eyes. Don't ask how Qianshu Lian could discern such emotion from that small, slender body.
None of this prevented Qianshu Lian from learning the truth from Pandora:
People in this world weave all sorts of myths, and myths create all sorts of gods.
The gods should maintain their roles as they are in their respective myths, allowing the world to function normally, but not all gods dutifully obey their mythical roles.
These are called "God of disobedience" and bring disaster, so some magicians emerged who could defeat the "God of disobedience."
They are therefore called "Campione," or Godslayer.
"According to what you're saying, then Godslayer should also be at the top of this world, right? Does that mean I finally don't have to worry so much about dangers that might pop up at any time?"
Qianshu Lian's tone carried a sense of relief and ease, but unfortunately, Heracles, after exchanging glances with Pandora, shattered his illusion.
"Having become a Godslayer, even as an enemy of the gods, every exercise of authority, every use of power, is a roar of defiance and provocation towards the gods!" Heracles's face was filled with a serious expression, making Qianshu Lian understand that the other party was not joking, but was telling him these things very seriously.
"It seems I still can't relax!" Qianshu Lian sighed, and in the next moment, he began to regroup.
"Exactly. Only then can you better survive in this world until—" Heracles's words stopped here, interrupted by Pandora, who suddenly spoke.
"Regardless, we must still thank God Heracles for his generosity. Otherwise, so much mystery and authority could not have been gathered together, and even if it could be restricted, the restrictions would be unimaginably numerous."
Pandora had a smile on her face, and Heracles could only nod silently in response.
In the ritual of becoming a Godslayer, the generosity of the god determined how much initial advantage the Godslayer gained after their transformation.
