Chapter 135

Without any hesitation, he tore open space again and entered the netherworld.

Pan Duola looked at Li An, her small face tinged with pouty resentment.

Her child killed another child!

That made her, as a mother, deeply sorrowful.

But Li An said nothing; he walked up to Pan Duola, picked her up in his arms, and kissed her fiercely.

It had been so long since they last met—he missed how tight she was.

After kissing for a while, Li An pinned her beneath him and began moving.

Several hours later, Pan Duola asked with a pouty expression: "Why did you kill Tony? He was your brother!"

"He wasn't my brother—he's my son!" Li An corrected her.

Pan Duola's face flushed red, and she punched Li An.

This guy was just too irresponsible.

Li An grabbed her tiny fist and said: "Alright, let's begin the God-Slayer ritual."

Although he had already gained Perseus's power by devouring him,

Li An never turned down more power—if he could do it again, he wouldn't let the chance slip.

"Fine, fine, I give up," Pan Duola rolled her eyes at Li An, then stood up and summoned the Ring of Usurpation to begin the God-Slayer ritual.

The ritual normally required the corpse of a rebellious god, but Perseus's corpse had already been devoured and digested by Li An, so it was gone.

Fortunately, his divine soul still remained—sacrificing the divine soul would work just as well.

As the ritual began, Li An felt a surge of power flow into his body.

This power, upon entering his body, was assimilated and absorbed by his divine energy.

At the same time, Li An felt he had gained another authority.

Sovereignty of the Sun!

Of course, this was not the Sovereignty of the Sun from the Hakoniwa World—its name merely coincided.

The primary ability of this authority was to control the sun and command solar fire.

Perseus was known as the Son of the Sun, so it was natural for such an authority to manifest.

But this authority was redundant—Li An's Eastern War God's White Horse avatar could also summon solar fire.

I should merge these two authorities sometime and see if I can create a better one.

No need to merge them now—I haven't left the God-Slayer World yet.

Once I devour more God-Slayers and rebellious gods and gain more authorities, I'll merge them all together.

After the God-Slayer ritual ended, Li An did not immediately leave the netherworld—he stayed to chat with Pandora for a while.

This woman had been stuck here alone for too long; she was still lonely.

Since his physical body had entered, it didn't matter how long he stayed.

As they chatted, Li An grew unruly, pulling Pan Duola into his arms and beginning to fondle her.

Pan Duola's face turned bright red, but she didn't resist.

Thus, Li An spent ten days of debauchery in the netherworld before finally leaving.

Returning to reality, since the time flow between the netherworld and reality differed, only ten hours had passed.

It was already dawn the next day.

Li An got up and stepped out of his room to find a woman in the living room—it was Erica!

Upon seeing Li An, Erica immediately became excited.

Yesterday, Li An slew the King of Swords, destroyed Hera's Divine Pillar, and released the divine dragon formed from the earth's vital energy, attracting Perseus, then devoured both Perseus and the dragon.

These deeds had spread far and wide; all magical societies in Southern Europe had gone mad.

Judging from Li An's methods, they all agreed he was a tyrant!

Yet even so, they still sought to cling to him.

Southern Europe could not remain without a God-Slayer—now that the King of Swords was dead, they had no choice but to submit to Li An.

Erica, having already pledged loyalty to Li An, was sent by the Southern European Seven Sisters Alliance to ask whether he would accept their submission.

"Your Majesty, the Southern European Seven Sisters Magic Alliance wishes to pledge allegiance to you—would you accept?" Erica bowed respectfully before asking.

"Fine. Have their leaders come tomorrow." Li An nodded in agreement.

"Yes, I understand!" Erica replied with immediate delight.

"Master, what are your plans for today?" Gipuriel asked, looking utterly bored.

"Today, I'm going to find the Sadingdao Witch and see if she's willing to submit to me!" Li An smiled.

"The Sadingdao Witch? Luculazia Zola!" Erica exclaimed.

"Do you know that witch? Is she strong?" Gipuriel asked Erica.

"She should be strong—she's an established thousandfold, at least a demi-god level!" Erica analyzed solemnly.

In the God-Slayer World, cultivators are divided into six tiers!

First tier: Apprentice, Intern!

Second tier: Formal!

Third tier: Top-tier, Advanced, Senior, Great Knight, Great Magician!

Fourth tier: Divine Beast, Demi-God, Holy Knight, Supreme, Highest Senior!

Fifth tier: Pseudo-God, God Ancestor, Transcender!

Sixth tier: God-Slayer, Rebellious God!

Currently, Erica is at the third tier: Great Knight.

She believed that the Sadingdao Witch Lucrécia should be at the fourth level, with strength equivalent to a demigod or a Paladin.

"So weak?" Jibril said, looking disappointed.

Yesterday, she fought that God-Slayer named Tony and found he was just so-so.

If Tony's Authority hadn't held some restraint over her, she could have completely hung Tony up and beaten him.

Yet that Sadingdao Witch was actually two levels lower than Tony; she must be incredibly weak.

Hearing this, Erica couldn't help but twitch at the corner of her mouth.

If Paladins are called weak, then wouldn't I, a Great Knight, be weak among the weak?

Those words were too hurtful!

"Alright, let's talk on the way. First, let's go to the Witch's home. Erica, do you know where she lives?" Li An interrupted the two women and asked.

"Leave it to me!" Erica patted her chest and assured him.

Immediately, she made a call to summon her maid, Eliana Hayama Aruru!

Although she was just a maid, her relationship with Erica was very good, like sisters.

Eliana was very beautiful with high good looks.

Even standing beside a top beauty like Erica, she wasn't overshadowed much.

It was a pity she had no talent in swordsmanship or magic, so she could only serve as a maid, taking care of Erica's daily life and meals. Erica called her

Besides that, her driving skills were quite terrifying; she couldn't distinguish at all between MT and AT cars.

Although her cooking was first-class, for some reason she always cooked up something terrible.

Li An remembered that in the original story, this maid could drive a car until it was wrecked, making the male protagonist Kusanagi Godou vomit, so he refused, saying, "Forget driving; let's just take a taxi."

"Taking a taxi is fine then. Eliana, you can go back first," Erica instructed Eliana.

"Yes!" Eliana nodded and prepared to leave.

Li An, however, spoke up: "No need to go back. From now on, you are not only Erica's maid, but also my maid. Stay by my side just like Erica."

"Eh?" Eliana was stunned, not knowing what to do.

"Hurry and thank Lord Li An," Erica urged quickly.

"Oh, oh, thank you, Lord Li An!" Eliana reacted and hurriedly expressed her gratitude.

Li An merely nodded and said nothing more.

Next, the group left the hotel and took a taxi to the home of the Sadingdao Witch Lucrécia.

About twenty minutes later, the car brought everyone to a relatively remote place.

There was only one house here; the house occupied a large area, like a small castle.

Outside, a courtyard was enclosed, and a black cat was lying on the courtyard wall, curiously eyeing Li An and the others.

"This Witch is quite wealthy," Li An said while looking at the house.
