Back on the island, Noah takes Circe and Athena on a cruise together.
"Noah, didn't you kill her?" Erica asked when she saw Circe.
"No, after all she is the Mother Goddess of the earth, now she is my subordinate god, don't worry, she has signed a contract with me," said Noah explaining that there was a woman.
"Are we still going on holiday?" Kanata asked Noah.
"Of course why not?" Noah said.
"Let's stay overnight on this island," suggested Noah.
"Up to you" X4.
"By the way, Athena, will you sign a contract with me?" Noah asked Athena.
"Do you mean to make me your subordinate god?" Athena asked in a dangerous tone.
"Of course not, the contract I mean is an allied contract, so that we can increase our strength by borrowing each other's authority when necessary" Noah explained.
"Oh, I see, okay," said Athena briefly.
After that they made an alliance contract to help each other in defeating the king of end and the goddess of destiny.
"Athena, do you still have something to do? If nothing, how about you stay with us?"
Noah asked.
"There's nothing to do. Are you planning to seduce this Goddess?" said Athena sarcastically.
"I just want to get to know you better," said Noah sincerely.
"I don't mind, but don't try to do anything excessive, Campione" Athena warned.
"Sure," Noah answered briefly.
"Noah, what do you want to eat tonight?" Edelweiss asked from a distance.
"How about we hold a barbeque party to welcome Athena and Circe's joining, what do you think Athena?" Noah said before asking Athena.
"Whatever," answered Athena.
"I didn't expect you to be so good at making barbecue, Athena," said Noah after tasting Athena's barbecue.
"Of course, I am the goddess of wisdom, so I can learn anything quickly and master it" said Athena with a proud smile on her face.
"By the way Athena, what have you been doing all this time?" Noah asked Athena.
"I am looking for the existence of the strongest steel," said Athena while eating the barbeque in her hand gracefully.
"The strongest steel?, you don't need to worry about that, I know where he sleeps": Noah said lightly.
"Is it true?" Athena asked in surprise.
"Sure, he's on a floating island in the Japanese sky," said Noah.
"How do you know?" Athena asked curiously.
"It doesn't matter how I know, but what is certain is that this information is accurate."
Seeing that Noah didn't want to talk about it, Athena didn't continue asking.
"How does he plan to deal with the king of end?" Athena asked.
"I don't know either," said Noah, not hiding it, because he also didn't know how he would face the final king. The ultimate king's most troublesome abilities are his immortality and the law of the great covenant of the gods that increases the king of end's power by the number of Campiones present.
"But what is certain is that I have to find a way to break the god-killing limit before I can face the king of end" said Noah explaining his plan.
"Oh?, how?" Athena asked curiously because this was the first time she heard a Campione say she would break the Campione's limits.
Campione although powerful, basically had limits, no matter how many heretical gods were killed, they could not increase the amount of their magic power. Campiones increase their power by mastering their authority and using it more efficiently.
Meanwhile, the magic power of the king of end is the sum of all the magic power possessed by the Campione at that time, meaning that if there were 8 Campiones at that time, then the magic power of the final king was 8x that of the Campione.
Moreover, the king of the end cannot be killed, even if he is killed, he will rise again sooner or later thanks to the great agreement of the gods.
There are two problems that must be resolved if you want to defeat the final king, one is the problem that his magic power must at least exceed the strength of an ordinary campione, either close to or equal to the final king so that if there is a long fight he can survive. The second is to solve the problem of the immortality of the late king.
"Maybe I need Pandora's help and also you, Athena as the goddess of wisdom," said Noah.
"Continue, I will help you as much as possible"
After that Noah explained his plan on how to carry out the ritual to make the authority he took from the heretical god completely his own.
Even though a Campione usurps a god's authority, it is actually like a right to use that authority, because the god can still appear again and if another Campione kills the god there is a possibility of gaining similar or even the same authority.
"Oh? Wouldn't that make you godlike?" Athena said in surprise. He didn't expect Noah to have such ambitions.
"I don't know either, but what is certain is that at that time I was no longer a Campione," said Noah with a shrug.
"But how can you find Pandora? The realm of life and immortality is very wide and Pandora's place is even more secret, no one can enter there," said Athena doubtfully.
"Don't worry, I can get to that place as long as I want," said Noah casually.
Previously when Noah met with Pandora last time, he had discussed this with Pandora and he had used the Dimensional Ark to mark that location in the realm of life and immortality.
As a multiverse-level artifact, this was of course easy to do because the Dimensional Ark was even capable of recording the coordinates of other worlds.
"Okay, I will definitely help you carry out the ritual, I also want to see what kind of creature will be created," said Athena with a faint smile.
"Really, don't think of me as a monster," said Noah helplessly.
Noah vacationed on the island with his women for a few days before returning to Japan.
"Welcome back, Vermilion-sama"
Once Noah returned to the hotel, he was greeted by Amakasu and a beautiful girl with long black hair in a hime cut and red eyes carrying a katana at her waist.
"What else is it this time, Amakasu?" Noah asked Amakasu.
"I'm just delivering Seishuuin Ena, she has business with you, Vermilion-sama," said Amakasu.
Hearing this, Noah turned his gaze to the girl.
Seeing Noah's gaze, Seishuuin Ena introduced herself.
"My name is Seishuuin Ena, Vermilion-sama, grandfather asked me to be your concubine and grandfather also said he wanted to meet you."
"Oh?, be my concubine?, are you willing?" Noah asked the girl curiously.
"Ena doesn't mind being your concubine, Vermilion-sama, it is an honor for Ena" said Ena innocently.
"No need to be a concubine, we just met, is the grandfather you are referring to Susanoo?"
Hearing this, Noah didn't immediately accept it and asked who the grandfather Ena was talking about was.
"That's right, Vermilion-sama, he hopes to meet you in person" said Ena.
"Is what you have in your hand the Ame no Murakumo no Tsurugi?" Noah asked as he felt the godly power on the sword in Ena's hand.
"That's right, grandfather gave it to Ena," answered Ena.
"Can I see it?" Noah asked.
"Please, Vermilion-sama"
Ena said while handing over her sword.
When the sword was in Noah's hand, the sword trembled trying to break free, but no matter how hard the sword tried, its struggle was in vain.
Noah felt the sword and used the sword as a medium to find out Susanoo's location.
After getting the location, Noah returned the sword to Ena.
"You can come back, Seishuuin Ena" Noah said to Ena.
"But Vermilion-sama, Ena was ordered by grandfather to serve you as a concubine, don't you like Ena?" Ena said in surprise, she was confident that her beauty was no less than Erica and the others, so she didn't understand why Noah could accept Erica and the others, but not accept her.
"Huf, it doesn't matter whether you like it or not, we just met and there are no basic feelings, so I won't accept you as a concubine or anything, go back. I'll meet Susanoo later" after that Noah entered the hotel with his women.
"Miss Seishuuin, we should go first before Vermilion-sama gets angry," said Amakasu.
"Okay"
"Noah, are you going to meet Susanoo?" Erica asked.
"Not now, by the way Erica, ask the Italian magic association to prepare all the knowledge about magic and mythology" Noah said to Erica, although previously Noah had asked Erica to teach mythology knowledge, but what Erica knew did not cover everything.
So Noah intended to learn more about mythology and magic in preparation for the ritual.
"According to your orders, my king," replied Erica before going to prepare.
"Athena, can you teach me the knowledge of heretical gods?" Noah asked Athena. No one knows the heretical gods better than the heretical gods themselves, let alone Athena who is the Goddess of Wisdom.
"Of course"
