Volume 1 Chapter 5 (1/2)

Chapter 5 - Oly with Rokuhara Ren andering around the Southern Europe in a budget travel

It seemed that Goddess Aphrodite ent out to roam the earth said this to him

『The human over there Submit your body for my sake』

When the japanese youth as overly carefree talked to the ician Julio Blandelli, it seemed there was still the continuation of that absurd demand

『You said your name is Ren? You can die for my sake Do you understand?』

『Hmph The likes of , cow, or horse It's one thousand years too early for a nificant human to state his opinion to me It's different if you're a royalty or hero who descended froe of God……』

Those were her lines toward the hu chased by soether with her so, well, as could be seen, she had really nasty tongue

The enemy's aim was Aphrodite's divine tool, the Girdle of Friendshi+p and Love

Rokuhara Ren and the Goddess who introduced herself with the alias Stella to hide on earth hout Southern Europe as a pair of human and God that shouldn't possibly be able tothat ti the ician

And then, even that terrifying 《Goddess of Retribution》 also……

『Rokuhara Ren is a Godslayer』

Julio faced the note PC on his desk and typed the keyboard rhyth the draft of the research report that was planned to be publicized sohout the world

『Aphrodite used his body to hide her divine tool However, due to an unfortunate chance, the Goddess fell into a critical state where she was dying In order to not let her life return into nothingness, Rokuhara Ren unwillingly──”devoured” her flesh and blood and soul along with her divine tool in the end』

『But he also had done a Godslaying in aon his way at the end of his extreether with Aphrodite……was the divinity of retribution The pursuer who cay──』

Tap tap tap tap Julio typed on the keyboard with jaunty rhythm His hand stopped here and his eyes moved toward the clock on the desk and then toward the room's

The curtain of the as left open The outside had become completely dark

Currently, it was past 9 PM at the small city Taormina located at Sicily Island

Around this ti dawn at japan More than ten hours had passed since Rokuhara Ren and Toba Riona entered Sanctuary Troia

However, it was unknohether the say

There was a case of one hour in earth was equal with three days inside the world of y, but there was also the opposite case where ten days on earth was nothing y

It was just like japan's folk tale of Urashi+ on earth and in the world of end was also different

「What is Ren and Stella are doing at this time……」

He wasn't at his own residence, but a villa that he chose for his stay in Sicily

And then, it was already late at night However Julio didn't change clothes He was still wearing a classy white shi+rt and slacks If he wore his jacket then he would be able to go out right away

Yes This was only the natural precaution

Because with the Godslayer Rokuhara Ren eical world Sanctuary Troia, it wouldn't be strange for drae to occur anyti」

Zeus's

The trial to judge the Goddess of beauty and love was still in progress at Olympus palace

「You said that the surface dweller Aphrodite brought here saw through the technique of the hero Achilles」

「Indeed,one Apollo smiled

That suely looked like there was ulterior motive behind it── While he was the God of sun, his smile was suitable for a ”twisted person” who deliberately walked in the darkness

「Achilles the Swift attacked with the Godspeed that he was proud of It should be impossible for a mere surface dweller to endure it, no matter how blessed with fortune he could be Further the body blow of Achilles」

「Hmmm」

Zeus knitted his eyebrows The sun God Apollo reported further to him

「And then just nohen I questioned the rats that I sneaked into Greece shi+p as spy, that surface dweller also easily dodged tord attacks of Ajax the Lesser He dodged the serious sword attacks──from a hero that crushed a whole army of ten thousands by himself!」

「Huard down I believe」

Stella=Aphrodite was getting anxious hearing their talk

The wound of Rokuhara Ren that she felt just now That o to Ren quickly! Stella was looking around restlessly

However there wasn't any path of escape anywhere The sovereign king Zeus glared at her

「Now then Hearing that this surface dweller escaped safely from Achilles o, a certain Goddess departed fro to earth」

「I……is that right?」

Twitch Stella spoke while pretending to be cal, that she would chastise the Goddess of beauty and love who perpetrated so bad……those words reachedGoddess you see, in the past even when I, Zeus chased after her for fun──she displayed a splendid escape Sometimes he would transfor around heaven and earth It's exactly because it was this Zeus as the pursuer that she……Nemesis could be captured」

Zeus suddenly talked about the past In addition he murmured

「If there is a surface dweller who stole the swiftness of Goddess Ne, then it's no wonder that even Achilles ended up having a really hard time The likes of Ajax the Lesser won't even be a e of an opening due to some unforeseen situation…… And then」

Finally Zeus let out a thundering roar

「That 『Goddess who governed over justice and divine punishment』 isn't in Olympus even now! She left to earth in order to chase after you──Aphrodite, and then she hasn't returned even now!」

Stella almost screamed 'Hiih!', but she sonity as Goddess However, she was gradually getting cornered into this predicaer the chief God Zeus this much──

It was at that time

Giiiiiiiiiiiiiii-

The audience hall of Oly with a heavy sound

「My co her home?」

「……Ren!?」

The one who entered fro talked

Rokuhara Ren The worthless huht from earth He didn't even possessthousandth of drop of divine blood in hihtest

He was just a mediocre person asn't any different fro feature, that should be him And yet,

He devoured two Gods and usurped each of their authority

The youth who should be called as Godslayingcheerfully with a relaxed stance

「You finally ca ht Thanks to that I immediately found where you are Luckily I also have a comrade who can fly in the sky I asked her to send me here」

Ren smiled at the captured Stella

However, the companion who shared half her life with Rokuhara Ren spoke with an angry face

「Aren't you a bit too late!? Do you kno disheartening it is for me to be alone in this kind of place!?」

「Hahaha, sorry, sorry」

Stella was unable to keep up her acting and her true feeling leaked out unreservedly Ren apologized to her

「I'll take you out froh it doesn't look like it will be that easy to do that……」

Ren shelved his inherent carefreeness for the moment and said that

A white palace was erected on the su majestically A lot of people were inside the audience hall at the center of it

Perhaps all of the that was similar to that

Ren quickly sensed that fro this place

And then, a fa the Gods He alking with heavy footsteps toward Ren as at the entrance of the hall

Bluish black skin andbearded face

There was no doubt He was the sea God Poseidon who he encountered at the sea a few hours ago

「Froot lost into our sanctuary huh?」

Poseidon stared dubiously at Ren and sniggered

「Hah! Ridiculous I can't feel any killing intent or fighting spirit that is peculiar to those beasts fro beast!」

「I was also told that before I think it's fine though, being thought as weak」

Ren wryly sh I'm a killer like that」

「There is no way it's fine」

Poseidon haughtily approached Ren with powerful stride

A trident appeared in his burly right hand Ren had seen it before in a painting It was the favorite weapon wielded by the sea God of Greek y

「You see, even with your appearance you're still more or less a demon who has done harm to us the Gods Even if you're a small fry, if you don't at least act in a way that befit such feat──that's troubling」

「Uwah!?」

Poseidon suddenly thrust with his spear Ren hurriedly juh empty air But, the sea God's hands didn't stop The second thrust, third thrust──unbelievably, seventeen thrusts were launched in less than a second!

It was a speed that far surpassed huhted all of them with an abnormal dynamic vision

He seared all seventeen thrusts into his eyes while slipping through the spear tips──

「That's dangerous!」

The moment he yelled, he was already behind Poseidon

He moved in clockwise direction and circled behind hi that he learned continuously at hisfor the sport scholarshi+p

Poseidon's spear didn't reach Ren's body

His attack couldn't catch up with Rokuhara Ren's abnor only cut empty air

「Hohou……」

Poseidon ht of Ren who circled behind him He turned around to behind him and aimed the tip of his spear oncethe supernaturally 『fast escaping speed』 He was really used with fighting

Sure enough, Poseidon chuckled 'kukuku'

「Godslayer brat Your running away is really fast……」

「It's one ofpoints after all But, when I came to this world, I suddenly met with someone who seemed to be faster than me I lost my cool there」

「Achilles the Swift huh Certainly if it's you, you ainst that person」

Poseidon looked around the hall

It was in order to pressure──all the Gods ere present here He yelled

「I ask all the Gods! assistance in this battle between h to tra this especially──to reen robe, Athena of the shi+ning eyes

The staff she was holding had vanished when anyone noticed In exchange her hand was holding a long sword She looked like she was going to h she had stopped at thisintrusive!」

「……Understood, honored uncle」

The Goddess of wisdoht after that

Suddenly──the scenery surrounding Ren changed coathered, to smack dab in a marine blue sea water!

Ren was shocked 「Eeh!?」

He was stepping not on marble floor, but white sand on the bottom of the sea when he realized

As expected froht Rokuhara Ren into the sea in an instant He couldn't breathe like this He also couldn't move satisfactorily due to the water resistance

And then, Poseidon was──

Charging forward like an orca or shark attacking their prey!

The large ht more than two meters was so fast he could be mistaken as torpedo Naturally, his trident also attacked Ren with the same speed!

(Wait, wait, that's unfair!)

Blub blub blub Ren's protest only ended up as bubbles co what he should do Look He was staring hard at the bearded sea God asn't orca or torpedo charging straight in the sea

Poseidon's movement was just like a slow h He could do it anytime The moment he was convinced of that, Ren's body smoothly swa speed doesn't change even inside the sea!』

The voice of the God of ocean Poseidon was heard clearly even inside water

When it caht, no e Ren focused his hten the power of divine ic power or ic befalling hi with this kind of trick!」

Right after he asserted that, the sea water around Ren vanished completely

He returned inside the palace's audience hall once more Yes He splendidly broke Poseidon's spell 『transition toward the sea』 that was affecting him

If he was slower by only five seconds, the spell would becoate anymore

「Hmph You're an ilared at Ren and spat out

Even though the two of them were inside water, their clothes and body weren't wet at all

「A htily brush away the mystical force of us Gods」

「Obviously We humans aren't the toy of you God」

「Hah You're already so beast Hearing you talking like you are the representative of the huhable!」

As soon as he said that, Poseidon thrust with his spear once olden splendor The tip that was divided into three blades and also the long handle were shi+ning gold divinely

It was an attack that was had thecertain death applied on the weapon

But, in that instant

Ren also siest weapon” His──Rokuhara Ren's right hand's lued close to each other and they were thrust straight forward

The approaching tip of the spear and Ren's two fingers clashed

GiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiNNNNN!

Aon each other and a yell of anguish echoed

「GUuuOOOOOOOOH!?」

「You know? I' away and I also don't really have any redee feature But because of that, everyone often……ht hand along with his index finger and ht to the front

And then, the sea God Poseidon His e bluish black body was deeply stabbed by so on his stomach It was a trident

The weapon that Poseidon hied its own master's stomach!

「If it's duel or quarrel, it's not like I'……no Perhaps, I'ry Poseidon pulled out the spear from his own stomach forcefully

But, he was a bit careless Fresh blood flowed out froasped 「Guh!?」 in pain and fell on his knee

Ren looked down at that blunder Poseidon turned a gaze that was filled with anger toward him

「You bastard, you deflected back my spear……」

「In the words of you Gods, it's retribution If it's said in the words of us human, it's cross counter? Anyway it's a technique that returned the attack power from the opponent exactly as it is」

In that instant──

The trident lost against Rokuhara Ren's two fingers and sprang back with GIIN! sound It then vigorously rotated once and gouged the stomach of its owner

Ren displayed a brilliant perfor indifferently till the end

「You see, actually I have no intention to kill a God But, a trouble befell ainst anyone ill harm my friend and important person……」

Ren declared coldly without hesitation

「I'll definitely take revenge on that person using everything that I can use」

「Hah! So you're finally talking in a ”befitting” way huh, Godslayer!」

The wounded Poseidon howled fiercely

Then suddenly──Ren's partner Stella raised a lovely voice

「O Gods who is guarding the country of Troia together with me Aphrodite, you've seen it just now correct!? This is the power ofas my servant, Rokuhara Ren!」

The belt that rapped around Stella's waist was shi+ning with rose color

No, it wasn't just her belt, her whole small body was clad in the same radiance

「Because there is the favoritism of my lord Zeus and the harlot Athena in the ith Greece's side, the situation will be leaning to that side sooner or later- The chance to overturn it is only now If you help Rokuhara Ren here, ill bring victory to Troia's side without fail!」

Ren's partner used the authority Friendshi+p Circle as though to say that noas the moment

Of course, to respond to this or not would be decided by the other party's will If the other side didn't find enough attraction fronored

However, as though he had been waiting for it──a certain God laughed

「Hahahahahaha! Way to go Princess Aphrodite, and also the Godslaying beast-dono!」

The one who laughed in exhilaration was the radiantly beautiful youth

The handsome sun God Apollo He was an old friend of Stella and a God who protected the kingdom of Troia from Greece army He called a silver bow into his hand

「Indeed, you should use all your strength to brush away the trouble befalling you And then this ti trouble is all of you the Gods protecting those people of Greece!」

The sun God turned his silver board──Athena

The Goddess of wisdom and war also felt shocked as expected She sharply questioned hi Apollo!」

「Have you forgotten? The authority of this lowly Apollo also included foresight and prophecy To speak honestly, the fact that this time the Trojan War this ti that I have known since a long ti」

The handsorinned heroically and fearlessly

Ren coht and curse to Cassandra It wouldn't be strange for he hiht ability

And then, Apollo pointed his hand to Rokuhara Ren and yelled

「O Gods who came from outside Greece like ood chance Let's show our obstinacy and dignity to the Gods of Olympus!」

3

「Certainly──」

The first one who responded to Apollo's encourageedly honest God of war Ares

「In the first place the nu Greece is a bit too e cannot be denied at this point The existence of the like of Godslayer is annoying, however……it's better than defeat」

The war God as clad in bronze ar sword

Then, a beautiful Goddess also nodded at Ares's words

「I believe that the remarks of you the ferocious God of war and elder brother are worth their weight in gold Very well, Arteue」

She spoke coolly with her gallant beauty that looked really similar with the sun God

She was Apollo's little sister, the moon Goddess Artemis Her features looked even more clever and serious than even that Athena

She was ”a long distance arrow shooting Goddess” asn't at all inferior coolden bow and silver arrow into her slender arsters!」

The God of sea and land Poseidon gritted his teeth

Because his sto on the floor But, he souished expression

「It's outrageous to intend to dirty this Oly face also turned stern froht beside her dainty body The shi+eld had a size that could snugly hide the young Athena's body behind it like a wall Goat skin was put on its surface

「O guardian deityAegis that I borrow froht now they were split into two camps

Sun God Apollo, war God Ares, and the moon Goddess Artemis who protected Troia

Goddess Athena, and sea God Poseidon who backed the countries of Greece

Within the explosive situation, both sides glared at each other eapon in hand, holding back each other──and then the battle began as though it was only natural

Ares slashed with his sword Poseidon thrust his trident

The siblings Apollo and Arteoat skin shi+eld that she received from her father

And then there was a peerless beauty who glared at Troia force

「My husband, Lord Zeus!」

The queen of Olympus Hera At the ancient Greece, coentle ox were offered to this Goddess of the greatest class She was enraged

「As the king immediately bestow the punishment toward their behavior that came from their youth and foolishness! I cannot be patient anymore!」

Hera was the Goddess as the mother of the land called Greece Naturally she was an enenored his wife's voice The king of Gods was currently facing the bitter ene to strive to be the first to get away from the hall that became the scene of battle

They must be the Gods of the neutral faction who only watched the Trojan War or cooperated with both factions in a balancing act Also,aere feraceful and beautiful than hu like they were co scene……

There was no doubt that they were gentle Goddesses or fairies Ren thought that

Because of that, Gods ere proactive in regard to the scuffle stood out

Poseidon, Athena, then Apollo, Artemis, and Ares

They were all fa theht now

He earing a white gara His hair and beard were curled splendidly

The highest God of Greek y spoke in a really deep voice

「To think that the day would co a Godslayer in our sanctuary」

「I also never thought before that they day would co someone like Zeus」

「Ren!」

「Let's talk later Stella First, it looks like I have to talk with this o hide?」

His partner was rushi+ng here in small steps with utmost effort, so Ren said that to her

Stella iure vanished with a pop She ”assimilated” into Rokuhara Ren's body that could be said as her other half so that she wouldn't become a burden

And then, alment from my thunder, Keraunos!」

Zeus chanted a spell and fired lightning attack from his left hand

It moved toward Rokuhara Ren as less than four, five meter ahead It was a super close distance Further in the speed of 150 kilometer per second There was no cause for it to miss

However, just before it hit──

Ren quickly ju!

Zeus's thunder didn't hit the Godslayer, instead it bleay the iron door of the audience hall behind him with a thunderous sound GOuuuOOOOOONN!

「H」

The caller of storm and thunder cloud Zeus narrowed his eyes

「Go forth onceattacks all at once from his hand

All of theer approached hiic power His five senses were sharpened──

Thehim with the speed of 150 kilo Approaching The lightning that was scattering sparks was approaching to him There were nine of them The distance until they burned Rokuhara Ren only left 50 ch the attack this time too Ren muttered

「Acceleration device……activate」

He used a keyword that he remembered from an old anime as the spell to activate his ability

Just before the nine thunder hit hith toward Zeus's behind Ren instantly rushed outside froot its iron door wrecked up

The lightning attack destroyed the ith thunderous sound DOON! The sound thundered nine times behind him

「Nemesis-san's power really has absurd speed……」

Renat full speed in the palace's corridor

When he finishedunder the blue sky

He rushed through the inside of the palace in the blink of eye using reflexes and speed that could dodge even lightning He went ”outside” froed sacredon the flat summit There must be more than five kilometers from the audience hall until the outside But, the time he needed to travel was only several seconds……

Ren already returned to his nore human

He stopped his feet and smiled wryly

「Its only flaw is that it can't be activated if I don't look at the opponent's attack until the very last moment But, if I'm able to use this speed anytime, I'll beco a stupid h suddenly cae eagle flying a few dozenout the voice of the sky God Zeus toward Ren

「There is many way for me to finish off a mere brat who is only fast」

「Uwaah!?」

Zeus instantly struck with lightning Ren screaolden scarab beetle that crawled out fro from its whole small body at Rokuhara Ren!

「 A A A A A A A A A A A A A A─────────!」

His whole body was tor sensation and intense pain and heat

As expected he was taken by surprise from the insect that ca resistance toward 『ht direct effect to hisattack inal ony to Ren──

Far froive him a burn That was how it should be, but,

「You're tenacious as expected」

Right after the large eagle in the sky said that, two streaks of lightning fell

This tih s that Zeus personally launched hireat strength that could destroy even a part of the sacred mountain Olyround──

Already had no leeway to even dodge the two lightning!

That hy he used his right hand's ”index finger and ether even while being struck by lightning, he folded down all the other fingers other than those two, and chanted the spell

「The Goddess of revengeNemesis will pass down the divine punish ment of justice to be carried!」

The result──the two streaks of lightning were deflected back to the sky

Toward the person who fired the in the sky

「NUOOOOOOOH!?」

The large eagle was hit by his own lightning and fell unsteadily toward the ground

On the other hand, Ren as also hit by the saood unless I dodge it……」

He pressed his chest and crouched down

He was attacked by a pain that felt like his lung was stabbed by a short blade

Even an attack that he failed to dodge could be reflected using Nee would come back to him like this──
