Chapter 57: Pandora, subordinate

The sky, the ground, and everything around them were pure white.

However, someone still sketched a beautiful picture.

A man in a floral shirt rested his head on the lap of a girl who looked only about ten years old.

This scene formed colors in the pristine white space.

The girl stroked the boy's hair, waiting for him to wake up.

This boy was Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao's eyes twitched, then slowly opened.

What greeted his eyes was a childlike girl with purple hair in twin tails, and seeing Ye Xiao wake up, she was very happy.

"You're awake, my dear child."

Ye Xiao was also pulled back to reality by her words.

"This is..."

"The Undying Domain, my child~"

Facing Ye Xiao's confusion, the girl answered him.

The Undying Domain, a purple-haired girl?

Ye Xiao sat up, looking at the somewhat familiar girl in front of him.

Ye Xiao also remembered who she was, and just as he was about to speak, the girl in front of him feigned shyness and said,

"Child, don't look at Mother like that, okay? It makes me a little shy~"

Dong~

A crisp sound.

Ye Xiao chopped her head with a hand.

"Who's your child, Pandora!" Ye Xiao said, annoyed.

Pandora covered her head and said, aggrieved, "Oh, why are you so fierce? Can't you be a little gentler with Mother?"

But then she became happy again.

"But you know Mother's name, so Mother is very happy~"

That's right, the girl was Pandora.

Unlike Disobedient God, she was a true deity.

The woman who grants all.

She was also the Mother of Godslayer; whenever someone slays a god, whether injured or not, their soul would enter the Undying Domain to see her.

She would help them consolidate the authorities they gained, heal their injuries, and thus become a Godslayer.

Ye Xiao glanced at her, and also curiously surveyed his surroundings; this Undying Domain was indeed pristine white.

However, right now, he wanted to know why he, as a devil, was here.

"May I ask why I, as a devil, have come here?"

Pandora blinked, then said playfully,

"Because it's a secret~ After all, in my eyes, you are a special child~"

Alright... she said nothing.

Looking at this space, Ye Xiao looked at Pandora and said, "May I ask how I can leave?"

"Honestly, this is the first time you've seen Mother, and you don't want to chat with Mother, you just want to leave. You've really hurt Mother's feelings, and even now, you're not willing to call me Mother."

Pandora was a bit angry about Ye Xiao's situation and mumbled to herself.

Ye Xiao looked at Pandora in front of him; no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't bring himself to say it. You should at least have some maternal glow, right?

"Alright, may I ask how I can leave?"

"What a bad child." Pandora was a little displeased, but still said seriously, "You have to wait for Mother to stabilize your authority~"

"Alright, thank you for your trouble."

"Mmm~ Who told me I'm your Mother~"

Listening to Pandora's words, Ye Xiao resisted the urge to give her another hand chop.

So, the two of them sat facing each other.

"Congratulations to my most special child for killing Veleslana and Melqart in battle..."

Ye Xiao listened to Pandora going through the process.

After a while, Pandora looked at Ye Xiao and said,

"You will return as a Campione, a Godslayer, the King of Kings, Campione."

Saying that, Pandora kissed Ye Xiao's forehead.

...

As the battle between the devil and the Disobedient God ended.

The area was a mess.

Ye Xiao stood under the sunlight with his eyes closed, his wounds rapidly healing.

Not far away, Erica was walking towards him.

At this moment, Erica looked at Ye Xiao with excited, fervent eyes.

This newly born new King, the seventh King in the world.

And this King was special, and unique.

He had accomplished the feat of Godslayer as a devil, and had also obtained the authority of Disobedient God.

This had never happened since ancient times.

And now, this rule was broken by a devil.

It was simply unbelievable.

When he defeated the Disobedient God as a devil, Ye Xiao had already surpassed all devils, including the Four Great Demon Kings of the Underworld.

Similarly, he could also enter the ranks of the world's top powerhouses.

Erica had already arrived behind Ye Xiao, her fervent gaze not weakening in the slightest.

Everyone worships the strong, and she was no exception.

As long as Ye Xiao agreed, Erica Brantelli was willing to become his subject, or rather, honored to become his subject!

Now...

Looking at Ye Xiao's back, Erica knelt on one knee and performed the highest knightly salute to Ye Xiao.

"Respected King, Knight Erica Brantelli offers you her utmost respect and courtesy. If you are willing to accept, I wish to become your loyal subject, to follow in your footsteps, and to fight for you."

Erica's voice was firm, and her eyes were filled with fervor and anticipation.

For a long time... Ye Xiao remained still.

Erica did not get up, remaining on one knee behind Ye Xiao. She raised her head and looked at Ye Xiao.

This was the King's test for her.

Yes! This must be the King's test for her.

At this moment, Ye Xiao slowly opened his eyes, feeling the power of the authority within him; this feeling was amazing.

Lightning in his left hand, storm in his right.

Plus the ten incarnations of the God of War, it was amazing!

However, feeling the fervent gaze behind him, Ye Xiao turned around, only to see Erica kneeling on one knee before him.

Seeing Ye Xiao turn around, Erica lowered her head again and said once more,

"Respected King, Knight Erica Brantelli offers you her utmost respect and courtesy. If you are willing to accept, I wish to become your loyal subject, I wish to follow in your footsteps!"

Looking at the fervent Erica, Ye Xiao also smiled.

"Even if I am a devil, does it not matter?"

"I am different from other Godslayer; they were human before, but I am merely a devil."

Erica raised her head without hesitation, her gaze firm as she looked directly at Ye Xiao.

"King, from my birth until now, this moment is what I have lived for. In my eyes, strength is everything. Your feat of slaying a god as a devil has transcended the boundaries of race. I follow a powerful King, and you are the King I have chosen. Whether you are a devil or something else, it cannot change my determination to follow you."

Ye Xiao looked at Erica and said nothing, while Erica waited for Ye Xiao's answer.

For human forces like Erica, serving the Demon King was an inherent obligation.

After a long time, Ye Xiao spoke.

"Human, state your name and swear your allegiance again!"

At this moment, Erica's previously desolate eyes brightened.

She raised her head, looked at Ye Xiao, and solemnly said again,

"Respected King, your subject Erica Brantelli, here once again offers you her utmost respect and courtesy. I am willing to become the King's subject, to follow in the King's footsteps!"

Ye Xiao nodded.

"Erica, I accept your request! Rise."

"Yes, thank you, King!"

After Erica finished speaking, she also got up and stood.

However, due to kneeling for too long, her legs suddenly lost strength, and Erica swayed, falling towards the ground.

Ye Xiao was quick, and immediately helped her up.

As their eyes met, Erica's face instantly turned red; she had not expected such close contact with the King.

"Tha... thank you, King."
