Chapter 252: Just tell me whether he is saving this world or not!

"Waa~"

Pandora said with a crying tone, tugging at the corner of Su Nian's clothes.

"Um, I am very sorry, the usurped Authority cannot be infused into your body."

What to do? He wouldn't cut me down with a sword, would he?

Pandora's heart was in extreme panic; as an Earth Mother Goddess, encountering a Steel Hero was like encountering a natural predator.

If it weren't for the fact that Verethragna had already been defeated and restrained by the Ring of Usurpation, she generally wouldn't even dare to appear before such a Steel Hero.

From the Earth Mother Gaia, to the Goddess of Time Rhea, and finally to Pandora, she had never won against the Steel Gods.

Having been bullied and oppressed to this extent, she could only take revenge by creating Godslayers.

"Then I have lost an Authority; how do you intend to compensate me?"

Su Nian looked at the trembling Pandora with a half-smile.

Stared at by Su Nian's azure eyes, Pandora trembled like a little rabbit being watched by a giant dragon.

"I surrender, please don't kill me. For the sake of us both being Divine Spirits, and if you kill me, how will the Heretic Gods of the multiverse be dealt with?"

The birth of a Godslayer is not an accident, and Pandora does not have the ability to shroud all parallel worlds with the Ring of Usurpation.

In fact, the ability for the Ring of Usurpation to be born and for Godslayers to exist on the Earth is a result permitted by the planet and Mythology.

There are always Divine Spirits who do not submit to their own Mythology, attempting to descend to the Earth to modify the Mythology and obtain freedom.

However, the descent of Divine Spirits and their Heretic Avatars causes extremely serious damage to the Earth, especially the Steel Gods; their descent drains the Earth's essence and brings all kinds of disasters.

And the Godslayers take on the responsibility of cleaning up the Heretic Gods.

Pandora hoped to use the responsibilities she shouldered to make Su Nian let her off.

At this moment, Su Nian said in a very calm tone.

"Is that so? But what does that have to do with me? Just tell me how you will compensate for my loss of this Authority?"

"Aren't you a Savior? Where is your sense of responsibility?"

Pandora said, wanting to cry but having no tears.

"I am not the Savior of this world, and when did you get the illusion that I am not saving this world?"

Su Nian rolled his eyes at Pandora and said.

Otherwise, what do you think he is doing right now? Isn't it just to prevent this world from being sunk by those Two-digit beings?

Never mind who brought this danger.

Just tell me whether he is saving this world or not!

This is a Merit of saving a multiverse, after all.

Su Nian looked at the unclaimed Authority that was about to disappear, flicked out a Magic Card, and collected the Authority of the 【God of War of the East】.

Although this thing is of no use to him, it is purely a hot potato to others.

But for Kalki, this is a good thing; it can completely help him develop the Simulated Star Creation Map.

Perhaps he can sell it to the Sun King Group for a good price.

Hmm, almost forgot, I can also fleece Indra for a bit.

Who told him to be unlucky? Verethragna just happened to be an Avatar of Indra.

And he also has the Avatars of the Hinduism deities Indra and Vishnu.

The Avatar portion of this Authority comes from the Vishnu Avatar.

Killing two birds with one stone, simply perfect!

"Um, didn't you not lose this Authority?"

Pandora raised her head, looked at Su Nian, and said ingratiatingly.

"That, can we just let it go? I am penniless and really cannot afford to pay."

"That is indeed true, you have no assets to compensate with."

Su Nian pinched his chin and looked at Pandora with interest.

He could tell that Pandora was telling the truth; there was no place for her in the Divine Realm, she didn't even have a single property, and her only daily pleasure was observing the current world through the Netherworld to see her children.

That is, the other Godslayers.

As for Authority and Divinity? She has changed from Gaia to Pandora, what Authority or Divinity does she have left?

The Ring of Usurpation and the Dark Christmas Season still require her to operate them.

Hmm, at this time, Su Nian glanced at Pandora.

After receiving the look, Pandora subconsciously looked at her own slender body and said to Su Nian with some fear.

"You... you wouldn't want me to pay with my body, would you?"

Pandora looked at Su Nian with a slightly flushed face; if she really had to pay with her body.

It seems she wouldn't be at a loss? This guy looks exactly like King Arthur walking out of the Arthurian Legend.

As a Mythology compiled by Witches, Arthur's body still incorporated many of the Witches' preferences, although in the Mythology, the Witches' Avatar is Morgan.

But Morgan also craved Arthur's body.

"If it is you, it is not un..."

Thud!!

Before Pandora could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by a flick to the forehead from Su Nian.

"You are daydreaming!"

Su Nian moved his wrist slightly and said.

"I mean, you work to pay off the debt; as long as you work for me for a thousand years, it will be settled."

Hearing this, Pandora was stunned, as if she had not expected that Su Nian would actually make her work to pay off the debt.

Although it's not a physical repayment, it's a bit of a loss.

But at least I survived, didn't I?

It's still a bit magical, Pandora couldn't help but ask tentatively.

"Really? Is one thousand years enough?"

"If you want to work for free, that's not impossible."

Su Nian looked at Pandora with some curiosity, unable to understand how she could be so happy while being exploited.

Pandora's small eyes lit up instantly.

At this moment, Su Nian discovered that Athena and Lancelot, who had gone to capture Melqart in Sardinia, had returned.

He left the Netherworld without a word, leaving behind Pandora, who looked somewhat awkward watching Su Nian's back as he departed without a hint of hesitation.

"Am I really that unappealing?"

Pandora wore an expression of doubting her own existence.

——

The world of the living, Sardinia.

Erica watched Verethragna, who had been easily killed by Su Nian, and couldn't help but mutter in a low voice.

"Godslaying... is it really this simple?"

From Erica's perspective.

Verethragna had just picked up the Golden Sword, taken two steps, and then frozen.

His youthful face still bore the smile of a scheme fulfilled, as if time had frozen on him.

Then, until he was gently poked by Su Nian's sword, his form collapsed, scattered into sand, and was blown away by the wind.

"If I had known, I would have gone myself..."

But before Erica could finish her sentence, her mouth was covered by Liliana.

Liliana had a terrified expression on her face, looking at Erica with some disbelief as she spoke.

"Erica Blandelli, do you know what you are saying?"

It was fortunate that Su Nian had just gone to the Netherworld and left.

Otherwise, based on Erica's words just now, it wouldn't have been an exaggeration for him to execute her on the spot.

Even the Copper Black Cross would inevitably be implicated.

"Let her go, Lily."

At this moment, Su Nian, having returned from the Netherworld, looked at Erica with interest and said to Liliana.

Hearing Su Nian's voice, Erica froze completely; from her feet to her head, every limb went rigid.

It's over? It's completely over now; the Demon King heard it.

She truly had not expected Su Nian to return so quickly.

Generally speaking, doesn't it take some time to accept authority after godslaying?

"However, since you said you could do it too, then perhaps I can give you a chance."

It just so happened that Athena and Lancelot had already captured Melqart and were on their way back.

Hearing this, Erica suddenly widened her eyes, looking at Su Nian with some terror.

No way? You want me to fight a Heretic?

Although she lacked a bit of self-awareness, she still understood what kind of monster a Heretic was.

But this was caused by her own slip of the tongue, and in order not to drag down the Copper Black Cross.

Erica had to accept Su Nian's Gift.

"Yes, thank you for the opportunity you have given me."

Erica knelt on one knee and said solemnly to Su Nian.

Yet her heart was desolate to the extreme; sure enough, she had bullied Liliana too much and was now facing retribution.

On the side, Liliana also looked at Erica with some pity.

She looked at Su Nian, wanting to speak but hesitating; although Erica liked to bully her, that was just how she and Erica got along.

Erica was also her childhood playmate; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them childhood sweethearts.

Watching Erica sacrifice her life just because of her own slip of the tongue, Liliana was still somewhat hesitant.

"My King, isn't this punishment a bit too much?"

Liliana knelt on one knee and said to Su Nian, hoping that Su Nian would retract his previous words.

Letting Erica face a Heretic directly—she would die, she would definitely die!

Su Nian said with a smile.

"How can this be called punishment? This is clearly giving her a chance to become a Godslayer."

Liliana opened her mouth but didn't continue speaking; being able to say one sentence for Erica was already the result of her and Erica's good relationship.

Erica, you're on your own; I've done my best.

Are you determined to see me die, Demon King? Erica thought with a smile on her face.

She didn't even dare to curse in her heart now.

At this time, Su Nian suddenly looked up into the distance and spoke.

"They're here."

Clip-clop!

The sound of hooves rang out; the honey-haired Valkyrie, carrying the silver-haired loli, rode a white horse and returned in triumph with the spoils of war.

The battered, unconscious, and massive figure they were dragging behind them was none other than the Heretic, the God King Melqart.

After a bitter battle between Athena and Lancelot, the two of them finally captured Melqart alive without a scratch.

"This is... the God King of the Sea-Flash Clan, Melqart? The Trinity goddess Athena? And the Steel Goddess Lancelot?"

Erica saw the truth at once, and her expression changed slightly.

The King isn't going to make me fight these three gods, is he?

For a moment, Erica felt completely unwell.
