Chapter 17: The Birth of Two Kings
The sound of the battle had subsided, and Erica cautiously walked over, where a Japanese boy was lying asleep in the ruins that had been tattered by the battle of the gods.
Erica was also relieved to see that the guardian was safe, but soon she panicked.
Without Esther's breath, she didn't see Esther.
"No...... No," Erica searched around for a long time, using magic to find out, but still couldn't find Esther.
Her eyes were a little distracted, and she sat beside the guard, "Esther is dead?" ”
Tears ran down her cheeks.
Although it was only a few days together, Esther's gentleness, strength, courage, and responsibility brought a deep impression to her, and she became a close friend recognized by her.
"Is this the fate of humanity?" Erica thought of what her uncle said when she left, "I hope I can see you again in the future", it turns out that participating in the battle of the gods is so terrifying.
He survived, and so did the guard, but the strongest Esther fell here, and even the bones did not exist.
After a long time, Godo slowly opened his eyes, and saw Erica sitting beside him with his legs in his arms.
"Am I not dead?" Hutang was a little dazed, he clearly remembered that using the power of the gods in the [Prometheus Cheats] seemed to directly tear his body apart, and the painful feeling almost made him collapse.
However, although the clothes and clothes on his body are now tattered, the previous injuries, broken bones, bruises, burns, and all kinds of other injuries on the body have recovered.
He was surprised by this change, thinking that Erica had helped him recover, but he never thought that it was his own self-healing power.
"Erica!" Godo shouted.
Erica raised her head, her face was sad and lost, but she still reluctantly gave Godo a smile, just a little ugly, "Congratulations to Hutang, you successfully killed the gods and became the seventh god-killer." ”
Looking at the Gotang, who was shocked by her words, she smiled lightly, "In the future, you will definitely be worshiped by the world as a demon king, and you will hold the fate of the world in your hands." ”
"I became a godslayer?" After a moment of pause, Godo came back to his senses, "That is, the gods have been defeated. ”
"Yes!" Erica nodded, "Remember what I said when you set out for the final battle?" ”
Godo heard Erica's voice and looked at Erica's lips and blushed.
Erica didn't notice the dark color of the goto, and said slowly, "You shouldn't know that the ritual of reincarnating a godkiller is from Prometheus' younger brother, Epimetheus and his wife Pandora.
It means that the calamity and hope are put into a box to make seeds, and the gods are sacrificed to open the box."
Erica, who hesitated for a while,
"The name Prometheus means the one who thinks first, that is, the sage who has foresight, and Epimetheus, on the other hand, represents the one who thinks later, that is, the fool who regrets after acting."
Erica lowered her head and buried her head in her knees again.
"So only a fool like you can receive the favor of Epimetheus.
Wise people don't go one-on-one with God, and I explained it to you just now.
Therefore, the godslayer is also called the illegitimate son of Epimeterus, that is, the son of the fool.
It can be said that all the godslayers were stupid like you before they became demon kings."
"Hey!" Even the unresponsive Godo sensed that something was wrong.
Soon he remembered why he hadn't seen Esther.
"Erica, where's Aster?" The hand that shook a little in the voice of the guard said, "That guy, I remember that in the end he was defeated by Urus Ragnar and was seriously injured, did he run away to recuperate somewhere." ”
Erica didn't speak, only the sound of the girl crying came to his body's ears.
Godo's face turned pale, and the joy of defeating the gods dissipated directly.
Esther is dead, and in every way, Erica's message to him is this.
"Why did you ......" Godo thought of the ensuing battle, fighting the gods while guarding his own figure.
If it weren't for the defense of himself, maybe Esther would be the final victor!
"Mingming...... Obviously, you still want to become a god-killing demon king, why did you fall here. ”
Godo also shed tears, tears of pain.
"Huh? Did something happen? Or did Godo bully Erica? The sudden sound made the two people stunned.
Familiar with the sound, with ease, pleasure, but also with dazedness.
"Esther." Godo was a little surprised, and then he saw a figure rush into Esther's arms.
"Stupid, stupid, stupid...... You disappeared without saying a word, do you know how worried we are about you? ”
Erica hammered Esther hard in the chest, and finally hugged him and cried.
The smile on Esther's face also retracted, "Sorry, I don't know......"
The sadness on the face of "Esther ......" disappeared and turned into a bright smile, which was so good, it was really happyend.
……
"In other words, you became a godkiller, the eighth godkiller." There were three people, not six figures.
By the time Erica recovered, it was already late, and after some discussion, the three of them decided to stay here for one night to enjoy the last peace.
This is what Erica asked.
Because she knew that when she left here, she would not be able to go back to the past, but would become a demon king to be admired.
Just when I asked where Esther was going, the other party said this.
After Gordon defeated Urus Ragnar, and seeing him perform the ritual, I went after Mercato, and luckily defeated him, becoming a godslayer. 〗
Then there was Erica's exclamation.
Without him, it's just shocking.
After all, in just one day, she witnessed the birth of two godkillers, you know, the godkillers that exist today do not count the time of birth between each other.
There will be two people a day.
However, Erica is still shocked by Esther's audacity and madness.
Obviously suffering such a serious injury, he still tried his best to kill Mercato, you must know that one is not good, but it will die.
Compared to Esther's shock, Hutang was excited, "Originally, I was worried about what to do in the future, but now Esther, you have also become a god killer, in short, it will be right to follow you in the future." ”
The words of the guardian are true, killing the gods, although there is joy, but more is confused.
After all, how to put it, he was an ordinary person before.
Gu Chen
He doesn't have the mind of a so-called savior, nor does he have the mind of lawlessness after gaining power, he is still just an ordinary teenager who is about to become a high school student.
Now, Esther has also become a god killer, which at least gives him some comfort in his heart, after all, he is also a close friend and comrade-in-arms who has fought together.
"Don't worry, no one can say what the future holds, at least, we're still alive and sitting here and chatting together.
Just cherish the moment. ”
Esther also felt the dazed guard, and said with a light smile.
"That's right." Hutang also smiled, yes, it's good to cherish the moment.
"By the way, the three of them?" Godo shifted his attention and looked at the three of Shanaiduo.
"Oh, they're elves, this is Shanaiduo, the violent dog, the panda master, summoned by me."
Esther and Erica introduce the three elves.
"Elves? Authority? But does Mercato have such authority? Erica was at a loss.
"Who knows, maybe it's similar to 'Locust', after all, I didn't inherit the authority of 'Locust', maybe it's an arc compensation.
Anyway, I'm quite satisfied, at least more comfortable than the locust. ”
Esther's words were recognized by Erica's protection, after all, if Esther summoned locusts, it would not be a much better experience for Erica, after all, girls are afraid of bugs and the like.
"But don't underestimate Shanaido, they are even stronger than I used to be."
This sentence surprised Erica and Godo, "It's really so powerful." ”
"That's right, and they're self-aware, and they're able to grow, so you can treat them as cubs of the beast." This is the explanation that Esther thought of on the road, after all, what authority the gods have, and humans only know a rough idea.
"The power of summoning is about quality rather than quantity." Erica jotted down the message, "What a magical power. ”
"Esther's Elf is much stronger than mine, like ......," Guardian sighed, and was interrupted by Esther before he could finish speaking.
"Remember that even the closest people should not easily share their authority with others.
Although our authority is known to the world, the specific effect will change slightly after we usurp it.
And perhaps we usurp authority that others don't know, so these will be our hole cards.
After all, you should also feel that after becoming a godkiller, we are hostile to the gods, and the relationship between the godkillers is not as good as you think.
The fight between them is also very ferocious. ”
Esther said unabashedly.
Godo looked at Erica, who was silent.
Godo nodded, indicating that he understood.
"Although the god killer is the child of the fool and the demon king who came into the world, in essence, we are just people with great power.
Don't think that you can be lawless, otherwise you don't know that calamity will come that day.
Let's do our best and protect ourselves in this troubled world! ”
Esther's last words were an admonition and exhortation to the Guardian.
"It's natural, and I thought it would be nice if I could go back and be an ordinary high school student." Godo smiled.
"That's my report" In the conference hall of the Bronze Black Cross, Erica reported the information she had and what was happening in the world to the senior members of the association.
"In other words, in just a few days, two godkillers were born."
"In a day, to be exact, although there is a time gap, it will never exceed two hours."
Erica added.
"How do you feel about these two kings, Erica, how do you feel about having been in contact with them the longest?" At the top of the list is Paul Brandy, who has just become the commander-in-chief.
"First of all, I have a feeling about Kusanagi Godo, who before coming to Italy, was a completely ordinary person who had nothing to do with magic, and he came to return the Prometheus Cheats for his grandfather, an item that belonged to Lucrecia.
But because of the war of the gods, Lucrekia was unable to gather mana and hand over the cheats to us. ”
The rest nodded, all they knew, but no one interrupted Erica's protective talk.
"He has an ordinary personality and is a little lazy, but he is also very strong-willed, does not know much about the gods, and has no fear of the gods.
is also more stubborn.,Determined to do things even if you risk your life.。
It belongs to the great wisdom and foolishness, with kindness and justice. ”
"I don't know much about Esther Renault, who first met the Protector and the god of war, Urus Ragnar, because of the Prometheus Cheats.
A self-proclaimed magician, Lucrekia is called a strong man who stands at the limit of human beings and follows the footsteps of the gods.
Mysterious overall, it seems to come from an ancient oriental country.
In addition, he seems to be born with the temperament of a leader.,In battle,Can specify the right plan.,Can also play dangerous roles.,Gentle.,Righteous.,It's also very kind.。
I feel like a trustworthy brother. ”
"Hehe, it looks like Erica has a good sense for both of them." Paul smiled, "However, the above are your personal senses, and can only be used as personal information, as for how they are, it will take a long time to pay attention." ”
Paul looked at the people around him, "But in any case, there is one thing we need to remember, whether it is Kusanagi Godo who used to be an ordinary person, or Esther Renault, who is mysterious and powerful.
At this time, they all have a common name, that is, the Demon King, which is our unrivaled existence.
When you treat the king, you have to serve and admire. ”
"Yes......"
……
Erica walked out of the conference room and let in a gentle send-off.
To be honest, she still feels a little excited now, after all, not only did she witness the birth of the two godkillers, but she also established a deep relationship with the two godkillers, and was called a close friend and comrade-in-arms by those two.
In the association, it can be said that it is a very high achievement.
It can be said that Erica's protective status is now quite high within the association, and it has become a link between the two godkillers.
After leaving the association and hailing a taxi, Erica soon appeared in a luxurious hotel.
In the lobby of the inn, Esther was sitting there drinking tea elegantly, looking at books about the gods in his hands, if he had eyes on it, it would be difficult to imagine that this was a demon king, more of a scholar!
