Prometheus Slate

Two days later, at Narita international airport, Tokyo, Japan. a young man with short red hair got off the plane.

This young man is Noah, after getting money from several criminal organizations in Sardinia, Noah immediately went to Japan to get the Prometheus slate in the hands of Kusanagi Goudo first instead of waiting in Sardinia because he didn't want any uncertain factors.

After getting off the plane, Noah summoned his clone to gather information about Kusanagi Goudo's residence.

The time clones had helped Noah greatly so far in gathering information, and it didn't take long, one of his clones provided information on the Kusanagi Family's residence.

Without wasting time, Noah immediately teleported near Kusanagi's house.

Knock... knock... knock...

"Wait a moment"

After knocking on the door, a little girl's voice came from inside the house and opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, Noah saw a young girl with brown hair down to her neck, with a pink hair band and green eyes opening the door, she was Kusanagi Shizuku, Kusanagi Goudo's younger sister.

"Who are you, and what do you need?"

Shizuka asked after seeing the visiting foreigner.

"Hello, I'm Noah Vermilion, I know your grandfather from Sardinia, Italy. I'm here to take back a slate that was entrusted to your grandfather, is your grandfather at home?" Noah said while smiling gently.

Seeing Noah's smile and handsome face, Shizuka, who was a young girl who was going through puberty, immediately brightened up.

"Grandfather is not at home, wait a moment, I will contact grandfather, please come in," said Shizuka while inviting Noah to come in.

"Then excuse me," said Noah before entering the house.

"What do you drink, tea or coffee?" Shizuka asked after inviting Noah to sit down.

"Then tea please" Noah answered Shizuka's question.

A few moments later Shizuka came with hot tea.

"Wait a minute, I'll call grandfather," said Shizuka before going to call her grandfather, Kusanagi Ichirou.

"Moshi Moshi, grandfather, there was a red-haired young man named Noah Vermilion who claimed to be an acquaintance of grandfather from Sardinia, Italy.

He came to take back the slate that was entrusted to grandfather."

Shizuka said after the phone was connected.

"Noah Vermilion?" said an old voice from the other side of the phone.

Meanwhile somewhere, an old man was holding a telephone.

He was Kusanagi Ichirou, who was talking to Shizuka.

'Noah Vermilion?, why don't I know, is he related to Lucretia?' Ichirou thought when he heard Noah's name from his grandson.

"Can you give the phone to Noah, I'll talk to him myself" Ichirou said to Shizuka on the other side of the phone.

"Vermilion-san, grandfather wants to talk to you" said Shizuka while handing the phone to Noah.

"Okay, thank you Kusanagi-san" Noah thanked Shizuka before taking the phone from her.

"Moshi Moshi, Kusanagi-san" said Noah while holding the phone.

"Who are you? How do you know about the slate?" Ichirou said directly when he heard Noah's voice from the other end of the phone and he was sure he didn't know Noah.

"Didn't I say before, I'm Noah Vermilion, as for where I got the information about the slate, that's not important.

As a person who knows the supernatural world, you should know the importance of that slate, I will leave immediately after getting it and I will owe you a favor" Noah said directly and he would not threaten Ichirou with his family, no matter how much he took Kusanagi Goudo's chance, so he will help if the Kusanagi family gets into trouble.

"No need, I just need you to ensure Shizuka's safety"

Ichirou said when he heard about Noah's promise. As a person who knows the world of supernaturals, he knows that sometimes they will use any means for their benefit, so even though Noah did not threaten his family, it is a fact that now Shizuka's safety is in Noah's hands.

So he would rather hand over the slate than risk his grandson's safety.

"Give the phone to Shizuka, I will give you the slate. I hope you keep your promise" said Ichirou in a deep voice.

"Kusanagi-san, your grandfather wants to talk to you" Noah called Shizuka who had already left because it looked like Noah was going to discuss something important with her grandfather.

"What's wrong grandpa?" Shizuka asked as soon as she took her phone.

"Shizuka, get Noah-kun the slate he asked for, grandfather kept it in a secret room in grandfather's room, behind the painting of Mount Fuji," said Ichirou directly because he hoped Noah would leave soon.

"Okay, grandfather," said Shzuka before running towards Ichirou's room.

After a while, Shizuka returned with a strange slate in her hands.

The slate has a picture of a man raising his arms with a sun pattern above his head.

"This is the slate you asked for, Vermilion-san" said Shizuka while handing over the slate.

"Thank you, Kusanagi-san, then I'll excuse myself" taking the Prometheus slate, Noah thanked her and said goodbye.

After taking the Prometheus slate, Noah immediately left for Sardinia without delay.

A day later, Noah got off the plane in Italy, before leaving for Sardinia.

To avoid associations with Italian magic, Noah kept the Prometheus slate in his storage room.

After arriving in Sardinia, Noah wandered around various sports venues looking for the Verethragna's incarnation of youth. If he remembered correctly, after the battle with Melqart, the Verethragna Incarnation split and the young Incarnation who lost his memory was going to various sports venues.

Noah's goal in looking for Verethragna was to attract Verethragna's attention, so he could get the white stallion Incarnation from him.

Seeing the bowling alley in front of him, Noah took the Prometheus slate from the storage space and held it in his hand before walking in.

He had been around various sports venues in the past two days, and this was the last place he had not visited, he was sure that Verethragna was here, because he felt the presence of a strong magic power from within. That's why he took the Prometheus Slate from the storage space.

As soon as he entered the place, he saw Verethragna in the distance and he immediately directed his fighting spirit towards Verethragna, because he knew that Verethragna would definitely be interested in fighting with him as long as he was not afraid and showed the fighting spirit of a soldier.

"Oh? Human, you are very interesting, are you here to challenge me?"

Verethragna said with a smile when he saw a human dare to challenge him.

"Of course, Verethragna, I will give you the taste of defeat you are looking for" Noah answered firmly as he walked without fear.

"Oh? You seem to know who I am. I am the winner, the greatest being who defeated all his enemies" said Verethragna in an unquestionable tone.

"Then, great God, do you dare to give me a weapon to challenge you?" said Noah while pointing the Prometheus slate in front of Verethragna.

"Oh? Prometheus slate?, I didn't expect you to have something like that, well I will lend you one of my Incarnation and use it to challenge me, brave warrior"

Verethragna said while summoning a white horse avatar before storing it inside the Prometheus slate.

"Then, see you again, brave warrior" said Verethragna before disappearing in a gust of wind.

Seeing Verethragna leaving, Noah put the slate back into the storage space before returning to the hotel where he was staying.
