Chapter 251: The Star Holy Sword: A Special Attack Against Shiroyasha

Verethragna revealed a smile of a scheme successfully executed and charged toward Su Nian, the Golden Sword in his hand slashing toward the Star Holy Sword in Su Nian's hand.

Hum!

That Sword of Wisdom which seals authorities slashed toward the Star Holy Sword!

In an instant, the surrounding environment underwent a subtle change.

A world resembling a dreamscape overlapped with reality.

And within this dreamscape, Verethragna charged forward with the joy of impending victory.

Yet the next second, Verethragna, holding the Golden Sword, was dumbfounded.

"This is?!"

In the vision of the dreamscape, he saw the target of his attack: thirteen towering, majestic phantoms sitting above a Round Table, reaching from the heavens to the earth.

Behind those figures, a golden sun hung high in the sky, looking down upon everything.

Even the shadows of this world carried terrifying, immense power.

And among the many phantoms, the only one he could see clearly was Su Nian.

At this moment, Su Nian lowered his head slightly, as if he had discovered Verethragna's presence.

Immediately following, countless rays of brilliance gathered in Su Nian's hand, forming a golden sword.

——That is the golden blade of salvation!

——That is the Star Holy Sword, which, once unsheathed, is destined to face enemies capable of destroying stars!

Verethragna looked down at the Golden Sword in his own hand, then looked up again at the Star Holy Sword in Su Nian's hand.

Verethragna fell silent for a moment, then revealed a smile of relief.

"To be an enemy of such an existence, even death is without regret!"

Countless golden rays of brilliance rushed toward Verethragna like a waterfall!

Hum!

Everything returned to calm.

And in the outside world, the corners of Su Nian's mouth twitched helplessly.

He had just wanted to have a hearty battle with Verethragna to put on a show for Pandora to see.

But who would have known that he would actually be so overestimating his own strength as to choose the Star Holy Sword in Su Nian's hand as the object to seal.

One must know that the thirteen constraints of the Star Holy Sword are the strongest seal!

To upgrade the Star Holy Sword into a Secret Treasure fitting for Little Garden, the Halloween Queen had spent a heavy price, practically putting the entire Avalon into it.

Su Nian had once heard Scathach say that when recasting this Star Holy Sword, the Halloween Queen referenced and used the technology the Takamagahara God Group used to forge the Kusanagi Sword.

She used the worldview of the Round Table Knights built by the previous King Arthur, combined with the Spirit Status of all members of the Round Table Knights, the original Sword of Promised Victory from Little Garden, and added parts of the Spirit Status of the Halloween Queen and Scathach.

Only then was this Star Holy Sword, which can exert Three-digit Exceptional power under extreme circumstances, created.

Of course, the extreme circumstances referred to here are when facing extraterrestrial invaders who intend to destroy the Earth and Little Garden of the entire Human History; only when all constraints are released can it exert Three-digit Exceptional power.

But the point is, if an extraterrestrial invader that does not belong to Human History and is recognized by the Little Garden Central appears, the Two-digit beings would have already taken action.

And if the Two-digit beings cannot handle it, look into the Decadent Wind.

If even the Decadent Wind cannot handle it... Sir, please come in~~

One of the reasons why Geocentrism might destroy the world is because of enemies from beyond the heavens.

And now that Geocentrism has been surpassed, it means that extraterrestrial enemies almost cannot exist.

This makes Su Nian always have the feeling that this Holy Sword was specifically forged like this to target Shiroyasha.

And given the Halloween Queen's twisted sense of humor, this possibility is quite real.

Spending so much effort and money just to disgust Shiroyasha.

Although it is a Three-digit Exceptional attack, for Shiroyasha, who has retrieved the Geocentrism Spirit Status, the insult is probably higher.

Of course, apart from this, this Star Holy Sword is an absolute Artifact in every respect; whether used in the lower levels or in Heaven, it can exert extraordinary power.

It is also an Artifact second only to the Simulated Star Creation Map.

One can only say that Verethragna is truly brave, actually thinking of bypassing the thirteen constraints to seal the Star Holy Sword.

But can this even count as a Godslayer "winning against the strong with the weak"?

Su Nian blinked, looking at Verethragna, who was frozen before him.

And in Pandora's judgment, is the opponent dead or not?

The output he used just now absolutely did not exceed Five-digit; it was just the level of Artoria, a Servant in a normal Holy Grail War, releasing the Sword of Promised Victory.

But that was in the illusory realm where the constraints manifested.

As expected, a battle is still necessary.

Su Nian sighed, picked up the Holy Sword, and gently poked Verethragna.

Then, as if it were the last straw that broke the camel's back, with just a light touch, Verethragna's form collapsed into sand.

After a breeze blew past, it dissipated with the wind.

And at this moment, just as Su Nian was preparing to fabricate the process of his battle with Verethragna, Su Nian felt a very faint sleepiness and a sense of being summoned.

It seemed that as long as he struggled slightly, he could cut off this feeling.

Sensing this, Su Nian realized that the mother of all Godslayers—Pandora—had arrived! ——

The boundary between life and death, the Netherworld.

This is a wondrous world that overlaps with reality, similar to a spiritual world.

As one of the inhabitants here, Pandora, who holds the Ring of Usurpation, once again felt the fluctuations of Mythology.

That is a special reaction that only occurs when a Heretic God dies because of humans.

"Has a new child been born again?"

A figure raised their head, looking toward the false sky of the Netherworld.

It was a petite young girl, one who could only remind people of a child.

Her long purple hair was parted to both sides; she was very short yet wore a thin white dress.

Yet, unlike her youthful appearance, her face radiated an incomparably enchanting, demonic beauty.

Pandora, the beautiful woman bestowed upon humanity by the gods, the first woman, the mother of humanity, the mother shared by all fools.

(Pandora, AI colorized)

She is also the key figure in the Godslayer World who grants rebirth to the humans who slay gods, transforming them into Demon Kings.

At this moment, having sensed the location of a new child, Pandora moved her thoughts and arrived in a stone forest.

This stone forest corresponded to the location of Sardinia in the outside world.

In the Netherworld, distance is meaningless; one can go anywhere just by thinking it, and by the same token, one can see the scenes of the outside world if one wishes.

But right now, Pandora was not paying attention to the outside world; she simply let the Usurpation Ring hidden on her body resonate with the Godslayer in the outside world, maintaining the new child's life.

Because Pandora had more important matters to attend to right now.

"Greetings, Heavenly Lord Verethragna, God of War of ancient Persia."

Before Pandora stood Verethragna, bound by illusory chains, dressed in rags, yet expressionless.

Facing Verethragna's numbness, Pandora did not feel much was amiss; she only smiled.

"It seems my child has brought you an unpleasant experience."

Losing to a human is a disgraceful matter for a god; those who can heroically become a sacrifice are few.

Most gods will only bestow the greatest Curse upon the newborn Godslayer before the Usurpation Ring takes effect.

"If you have no objections, could you allow the God of War to become the sacrifice for my new child?"

Pandora smiled, but in reality, she was already prepared to act.

At this moment, the numb Verethragna finally recovered a bit of his spirit due to the connection of Mythology.

He looked at Pandora in surprise and asked strangely.

"Mother of fools, why have you appeared here?"

Pandora blinked her eyes in confusion, then asked strangely.

"Giving the newborn child the most beautiful blessing is my responsibility, after all."

"A newborn child?"

Verethragna was stunned for a moment, then could not help but laugh wildly.

"Are you sure you didn't see wrong? That is your newborn child?"

"Hahaha, I never expected that the mother of fools would one day become a fool herself."

"Witch, open your eyes and take a good look; is that your child?"

Pandora looked at Verethragna with a strange expression, nodded slightly, and then looked across the Netherworld at Su Nian.

"That's right, it was a human who killed you, and he looks quite good too~"

Pandora wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth and said.

"I'm touched; finally, someone considers me a human."

A male voice sounded beside Pandora, and Su Nian wiped the moved tears from the corners of his eyes.

From the moment he arrived in Little Garden, he had lost his human identity and had been galloping far ahead on the path of "not being human."

But how many people knew the pain in his heart?

Why? Why? Little Garden was so unfair to him!

Izayoi Sakamaki, who possessed the Third Stellar Particle in his body, and Kasukabe Yo, who used the Life Catalog to simulate the abilities of different organisms, could both be called humans.

But why wasn't he?

Su Nian patted Pandora on the shoulder, moved; because of this one sentence from Pandora, he would protect this Pandora.

Even if Jesus came, it wouldn't matter! He said so!

Just by smelling the abundant Divinity on Su Nian's body, Pandora's movements froze.

Such intense Divinity, and it even had the scent of a Savior; is this the Last King?

But wasn't the Last King Rama?

Then what was going on with this one? Pandora looked at Su Nian, wanting to cry but having no tears.

"I'm dead, I'm dead!"

"Could it be that the Last King from another world has come to hunt me down?"

"Is it still too late to surrender now?"

"Is there any silly child who can come and save Mommy!"

Pandora's heart was screaming in madness.

If Mommy dies, you will never be able to obtain new Authorities again.

"Hm? Why stop? Isn't the Dark Christmas season still going on?"

Su Nian said somewhat strangely, reminding Pandora that he was still a human waiting to be reincarnated, and he still had to become a Godslayer.

"Do you desire my Authority so much? Take it, as a nameless king who has allowed me to witness a further path!"

Verethragna laughed loudly, then voluntarily gave up his Authority, disintegrated his Divinity, and returned to Mythology.

"Take it, take it all; consider it the price for my own overestimation!"
