...

A young woman, around seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed in ancient Greek white robes and wearing a flower crown, whose divine name was Athena, or perhaps Nut or Metis would be more accurate, the great goddess who governed life and death, the sky, the earth, and the underworld, sat in Haru's lap, expressing her hopes for him. "Become the King of Gods, Haru."

Her tone was akin to a doting mother wishing for her child to achieve greatness in society.

"Huh?" Haru was taken aback by the sudden request.

"What do you mean, become the King of Gods? Not only is His Majesty the Unkillable King a Godslayer, but how could a human possibly become a King of Gods?" Liliana's eyes widened in surprise.

In fact, both Erica and Kasugano Sora shared the same expression. The ancient Earth Mother requesting a Godslaying Devil King to become the King of Gods was a scene that shattered their understanding of the magical world.

"Haru isn't a Godslayer," Athena said, a slight smile playing on her lips. Her words would shock magicians around the world.

The strongest Devil King on Earth, the elusive ruler, was not actually a Godslayer.

Everyone's eyes focused on Haru, their expressions conveying a clear message: I need an explanation!

"I never was," Haru said, shrugging helplessly. "Pandora's ritual didn't fully work on me."

He hadn't denied the Godslayer title before because his actions were practically the same as a Godslayer's: killing gods, seizing divine power, deducing world rules, and evolving himself. The only difference was that Godlsayers didn't do the last two steps.

Everyone was momentarily stunned, perhaps because they had heard too much world-shattering news today, and quickly digested this fact.

"Then how did you get your Authorities? Authorities are unique to Godlsayers, aren't they?" Erica asked persistently, biting her lip.

Authorities were gained through Pandora's ritual, the Usurpation, which redistributed divine power, pouring the god's divine power and soul into the Godslayer's body. The power, containing world rules, merged with the Godslayer's soul, granting them partial control over the world. That was why Godlsayers weren't picky about which gods they slew, because the resulting Authority was always the one most compatible with their soul.

"Didn't Athena say it? My constitution can contain the Earth Mother Goddess's power. So, I can inherit their divine authority. My powers are, in a way, inherited from the Earth Mother Goddesses," Haru explained.

He attributed his powers to Athena's previous conclusion, which was actually due to the egg, but that was his greatest secret. This explanation was the best way to deceive them. A conclusion from a goddess was very convincing, wasn't it?

"But how can I become the King of Gods? That's impossible, isn't it?" Haru asked, gently stroking Athena's back, earning a loving gaze from her.

"Didn't the other mothers mention it to you?" Athena tilted her head, her face full of confusion.

"...Not at all," Haru said, a vein throbbing on his forehead. This made it sound like he had many mothers, which was true, but the only divine mother he had contact with was Pandora, who was trapped in the netherworld and couldn't travel freely.

The familiar Earth Mother Goddess aura Athena sensed came from Tsukuyomi, whom Haru had slain, and the Gaia's blood given by Pandora. The unfamiliar auras were deduced from the various earth-attributed gods he had defeated. That's why Athena said there were many Earth Mother Goddesses she didn't recognize residing within Haru. The source was actually the various earth rules deduced by the egg.

However, Pandora's motive for becoming Haru's mother was more about having someone to share the loneliness brought by time. That goddess wouldn't let Haru face any danger, fearing that the Last King would discover and kill him.

The Last King referred to Rama, the representative of the Steel Hero God. As the embodiment of male chauvinism, he had the power to kill Earth Mother Goddesses and turn them into his servants, the Divine Ancestors. This alone made him the most hated god among the Earth Mother Goddesses.

This power was considered vile, forcibly taking the Earth Mother Goddesses' power and enslaving them. At the same time, the Last King also had the duty to eliminate the rampaging Devil Kings on Earth, acting as a sort of cleaner.

"Do you know Cronus?" Athena mentioned a Greek god.

"Zeus's dad, quite famous!" Of course, Haru knew him. He was the father of the notorious womanizer Zeus. He was said to be a poor soul who loved his wife so much that he lost his position as King of Gods.

"Cronus was originally human! Gaia granted him her blood, giving him a portion of her authority over the earth, and he helped her defeat Uranus. Afterward, Cronus, as a human, rewrote mythology, establishing himself as the King of Gods, with Gaia as the Mother of Gods. In this way, he formed the pantheon and ruled ancient Greece."

Haru slapped his forehead. He remembered receiving this information when he extracted Pandora's blood. He looked into Athena's bright eyes. "So, you want to become the Mother of Gods through me rewriting mythology, and I become the King of Gods?"

"No, I want to be the Queen of Gods… You wanted me to answer that, didn't you?" Athena teased, a playful glint in her eyes.

"Ahem…" Haru coughed awkwardly, embarrassed that she had seen through him. He caught Kasugano Sora giving him a look of disdain from across the room.

"Alright, if I become your Queen, will you become the King of Gods?" Athena asked again, wrapping her arms around Haru's neck.

Haru fell into thought.

He had sensed it three years ago when he gained the title of Strongest King. He received the same treatment as Voban. Gods became increasingly hesitant to appear before him. It wasn't until he started using his Authority to create avatars and cast a wider net that he managed to slay a few wandering gods.

Susano'o, hiding behind the scenes in Japan, had gone completely silent, deliberately severing his connection to the earth. But if he were to establish a pantheon and become the King of Gods, all the vested interests, the current divine kings, would surely become Heretic Gods to obstruct him.

But the most important factor was the bonus of having a cute and alluring Athena he could cuddle with whenever he wanted. That was the decisive condition.

"I accept!"

After a moment of consideration, Haru agreed.

The beautiful goddess offered a kiss, a kiss from his wife.
