Human Evil Is Human Love
"Looks like I have quite mellowed down these days. Now even some domestic cats and dogs dare to bark at me."
Roy clasped the [Sacred Line of Judgment of Good and Evil] in his right hand and turned slightly to his side.
Those beautiful sky-blue eyes shining with a shade of silver felt piercing. The coldness and pity in those eyes which seemed to be make by the God himself with special extra care, for some reason made the English Godslayer feel cold shivers run down his spine.
However, deep down, Alex ultimately was one of the only six being in the entire globe who have produced the miracle of slaying a God.
He quickly calmed down his wandering mind. The cause and effect of this incident was being calculated by his brain.
"Huh, it turns out that you have been monitoring me. Oh, maybe, I should be appreciative of being taken in such high regards?"
Gascoigne felt bitter in his heart, he knew at once why he was exposed.
The youngest king's 'Eye of The Yore' has the ability to see the past, but, because the past put together is too grand, the new king must have an accurate observation target in order to use this ability.
Now he knows, the new king has been observing everything he does right from the start, so when he secretly followed and sneaked to snatch the Holy Grail to explore the secrets of the Last King, even if he thought that he was being secretive, to the new king it was just a clown's performance which he let be to bring him some amusement.
'Damn it! This Divine Authority's abilities are a bit too exorbitant!"
The magic eye that can see through all his tricks, enough to make him, who likes to plan meticulously for each step, totally helpless.
Just because, even if it is just a second that passes in this instant, it's already in the past.
The new king was truly his fatal nemesis.
Not only was the new king more of a thinker like him but also had the ability to thwart all his plans and thinking.
"Among the Godslayers of today, the only person who makes me feel troublesome is you, Black Prince Alexander Gascoigne."
"Although Aisha always brings disasters, she is inherently kind, John Smith will not do things that go against his principles, Salvatore is obsessed with swords and fighting, and Lord Luo Hao has no interest in foreign objects."
"The only one left is you, who has a slight overlap with me in character, someone who likes to cause trouble. You, the man with a intelligent and sophisticated mindset, but still a rampaging savage."
"If you ask me who is most likely to destroy my plans, then without a hitch, my answer would be you, Black Prince, you."
"If you had remained struck to your own things honestly, I won't have bothered the less to care about you, how to phrase it, you are also a godslayer, not so easy to deal with."
"But, but, but, you just had to appear in here, to grab the Holy Grail."
Roy looked at him with a smile, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, looking at the ugly face of Black Prince who was looking back at him.
This man is also a typical god-saving man. He goes down his own way and doesn't care about the consequences.
If it was in the past, Roy appreciated the black prince's meticulous thinking, maybe they could have become friends, just like Romani, but now they were enemies.
So, no doubt, it's better to get rid of unstable factors such as the Black Prince as early as possible.
"The pursuit of the Holy Grail is my lifelong goal, and it is also my father's will. Since I now know that the Holy Grail is with you, I am afraid that I will continue to harass you until I get the Holy Grail in your hands."
Alexander Gascoigne menaced with a sneer, his words were half laced with a threatening tone.
Although the Black Prince is not the powerful type among the Godslayers, his powers are more inclined to his theme — thief.
His first authority is god-speed lightning, enabled for quick escapes and robberies. He is also a quirky thief in that his second, third and fifth authorities are booby-traps for his quarry and for those pursuing him.
The fourth would possibly either being a pet for diversion and raw muscle, or lack of compensation for his inability to work with women like other thieves.
So rather, because of this, it was absolutely annoying to be stared at by such a person.
If such a troublesome godslayer continues to hover on his head and harass him from time to time, just like a fly, then any person would be irritated and annoyed.
"I'm not interested in letting a fly buzz around me all the time. I would rather slap this annoying fly directly to death."
Roy continued to say with minute signs of regret.
"I myself had an immature idea, but I don't want to use this method of killing other Godslayers to fight against the [Great Ritual Of The Old Covenant]."
"Although the Godslayers are called the Devils, compared to the Heretic Gods, we godslayers are relatively humane and can peacefully communicate with each other. It is precisely because of the existence of us Godslayers, that the Heretic Gods cannot destroy human civilization while leaving them plagued with disasters."
"I'm also concerned about the common people when I have energy to spare. If there are no Godslayer in this world, before the birth of a new Godslayer, the Heretic Gods are likely to destroy the modern human civilization."
The particularity of this world made him discover the reason why modern civilization was mainly born — just because the last king suddenly got too lazy.
Allowing the Ancient Godslayers such as Marquis Voban and Lord Luo Hao to continue to survive, so that within the last three hundred years, in quite a short period of time, Heretic Gods were unable to reproduce large-scale destructive actions, allowing the human civilization to develop rapidly.
It was not wrong to say that Campiones are a fundamental and necessary part of this world, this world absolutely cannot lack Godslayers, otherwise when the Heretic Gods start wandering freely around the globe, it will be the mark of regression of the human civilization and the prelude of a devastating disaster.
Even though Godslayers are seen as Devil Kings on Earth, why do all magicians still respect them and look after their needs?
Campiones, due to the method of obtaining their rank, are depicted as evil tyrannical monsters from everyone in the magic world.
It is also assumed that every magician fears their wrath and serve out of fear of the frequent evil they pursue. However, this judgement is technically false.
Since they possess great power, or because of it, Campione can be seen as clumsy, as their powers cause unintentional damage.
But regardless of their flaws Campione's are grand kings.
Most of the magic world revere them for the achieving the impossible. So much so that all magic organizations having deemed attacking or threatening one of them to be courageously suicidal, or completely, downright stupid.
Anyone who does such a thing gets admiration for bravery or being labeled an even bigger idiot than the kings they challenge.
A Campione's power and existence serves as a necessary evil.
If Heretic Gods are disasters, Campione limit the disaster by at least 67%, and the fact that their selfishness indicates the human will to live. Which is why they are either determined, reckless, intellectual, or charismatic, lucky fools.
"What a joke coming from the guy who stormed Tokyo and displaced thousands of people, he would say that he cares about the common people."
Alexander Gascoigne shock his head in mock laughter.
The 'White Asura' sneered back.
"I now understand the pain of the teachers who have to deal with inattentive bastards like a certain blockhead who asks the question based on their own half assed understanding with they were previously already given the answers to."
"Like I said, I will protect the common people, only if I have spare power, and while fighting against a strong man like Marquis, I didn't had one."
"I may not care about the life and death of strangers; but I am also not a tyrant who likes killing and bloodshed. I also do have sympathy and compassion for ordinary people."
"…it is the love of mankind, and at the same, the evil of mankind!!"
Roy answered the black prince's ridicule very seriously with consideration, just a like a teacher teaching a disobedient student.
He is after all a human — selfish, and will choose to abandon others to protect himself and his close ones when it threatens his or their life.
He is after all a human, he has enough compassion and empathy for the weak, pitying their weaknesses and helplessness, and will help and give them love when he has extra energy to spare.
He is after all a human, and when he really reaches the most critical point, he will burst out with the greatest human glory, knowing sacrifice, and giving his self for a heroic feat.
Human beings are complex creatures where love and evil coexist, and so, human love is also human evil.
Because love produces evil, and evil also manifests love. In this society of animals with intelligence, they are indivisible.
"Roy Mrkl Crowley! You. Are. Overstepping. Your. Bounds."
The black prince became furious, because Roy's overly strict expression where pitying him the same like a beggar.
Godslayers are proud creatures, umm, except for a certain big breasted airheaded maid; so how could Gascoigne let someone undermine his authority?
"I have taken it for granted, Gascoigne. Your presence has already affected me. I can see that if you do not die here today, you will add countless troubles to me at a later date. Now you have seen the Holy Grail, your father's last wish of proving its existence is also fulfilled. It's time for you to leave your own will."
Roy pointed his sword at the livid Godslayer.
"It will not end easily, Roy, Crowley!"
Alexander Gascoigne's expression was almost distorted, as if he had completely lost his mind.
He roared and took out a pen from his suit's pocket, wanting to use this pen as a medium to activate a certain power of his, and then…
And then the Godslayer of Godspeed threw the pen, and turned around as thunder to flee into the distance!
Gascoigne, who was flying in the air, had an impassive face.
He was not a person who easily lost his temper. The previous appearance was just a facade.
The strongest acknowledged Godslayer in the world! Especially one with a sharp mind.
Plus, a Goddess beside him, with brought him many doubts.
In this kind of foggy situation, fools will foolishly fight and wise will wisely flee!
Roy was not surprised.
He had previously guessed the choice of this cautious godslayer based on his personality.
When Gascoigne incarnated into thunder and disappeared, he also turned into a streak of flame to chase behind, leaving only one sentence lingering in the place.
"Athena follow me."
The loli goddess of wisdom didn't think much, and followed Roy's orders.
Guinevere and Lancelot faced each other, seeing the incongruity in each other's eyes, they inexplicably interchanged, from the protagonists of the stage to the supporting side characters.
"Uncle, what should we do now?"
Guinevere asked blankly.
After pondering for a while, Lancelot replied:
"Let's go to Japan."
"Then take my hand. Aiya~!"
"The Night Has Come, So I Shall Sleep!"
"A Restful Slumber, I Shall Reap!"
"End Be Done! Awakened By The Morning Sun, I Shall Leap, While They Shall Sleep!"
The Queen of Divine Ancestors and her Guardian God disappeared together at the same time.
