Chapter 60: Protection, the promise with Kanae

“A King?”

Hearing Erica’s words, Rias and the others were also a bit confused.

Why would Erica call Ye Xiao a King? What exactly happened in the past few hours?

“That’s right, he is a King.”

Erica answered with certainty, then continued.

“A few hours ago, the King slew two Disobedient Gods. He, a devil, performed the act of a Godslayer and obtained the authorities of the Disobedient Gods. Now, he has become the seventh Godslayer in this world, the seventh King in the world.”

“Eh!!”

Hearing Erica’s words, Rias and the others were utterly shocked.

How long had it been since they last met?

Ye Xiao had already become a Godslayer.

Did you think a Godslayer was like a common cabbage? Something you could just become at will?

“Is it true, Xiao?”

“That’s incredible!”

“Did Master truly slay a god?”

“......”

Rias and the others asked, still somewhat disbelieving.

Facing their questions, Ye Xiao also nodded.

“That’s right, I have sent the ancient Persian god of war and the god of storms back to mythology, and I have obtained their authorities.”

Hearing Ye Xiao say it himself, this… this was too incredible.

The current Four Great Devil Kings of the Underworld had all slain Disobedient Gods.

But they gained nothing.

Instead, they were injured.

Now, Ye Xiao had actually accomplished something even his own elder brother hadn’t managed.

And he even obtained authorities.

It seemed the Underworld was about to undergo a major change.

And this was a Godslayer.

They could be said to be among the people standing at the pinnacle of the world.

And Ye Xiao, the lover he knew so well, had actually become this powerful?

“Alright, don’t overthink it.”

“Whether it’s Devil Ye Xiao or Godslayer Ye Xiao, I am still your husband, your lover.”

Seeing everyone lost in thought, Ye Xiao said with a smile.

That’s right.

No matter what Ye Xiao’s identity became, he was always her lover.

Although he was a bit of a playboy, a bit too affectionate.

But the fact that he was her lover was eternal and unchanging.

Afterward, Rias and the others accepted the fact that Ye Xiao had become a Godslayer.

Just like that, everyone’s mood calmed down.

“Kanae, please call everyone over.”

“Yes, Master.”

As Ye Xiao gave the command, Kanae rose to call everyone who was playing outside.

After a while.

Everyone returned to the small wooden house.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Ye Xiao didn’t waste any words and went straight to the point.

“Everyone, next, I am going to bestow upon you the King's blessing.”

Everyone was a bit confused after hearing this.

But they didn’t ask, as Ye Xiao would never harm them.

“Aren’t you going to ask what a King's blessing is?”

“No need, after all, Xiao wouldn’t harm us.”

“......”

Listening to their replies, Ye Xiao also smiled.

“So, who wants to go first?”

“I…”

“I’ll go~”

Rias and Sona were about to speak when Zhu Nai beat them to it.

Since Zhu Nai spoke up, then she would go first.

After all, let Zhu Nai go ahead and test the waters.

“Are you ready, Zhu Nai?”

“Come on~”

As Zhu Nai’s words fell, Ye Xiao also leaned in and kissed Zhu Nai on the lips.

Zhu Nai hadn’t expected Ye Xiao to be so bold.

But it felt really good~

Very moist~

As the two kissed, golden light emanated from Ye Xiao’s body, then moved towards Zhu Nai’s body.

Before long, Zhu Nai was dyed with Ye Xiao’s color.

Similarly, Zhu Nai also felt something entering her body.

It was warm and very comfortable.

Looking at the two bodies glowing with golden light.

“Is this the King's blessing?”

“That’s right, this is the King's blessing.”

Facing the question, Erica also nodded.

The golden light gradually dissipated, and Zhu Nai slowly opened her eyes, which were filled with pleasant surprise.

Although she didn’t know what had been bestowed, she still felt many things added to her body.

“Zhu Nai, how do you feel?”

“Very good, and I also feel that my magic power has increased somewhat.”

Hearing Zhu Nai’s answer, everyone also showed expressions of anticipation.

Next, it was Kanae’s turn.

After all, Ye Xiao’s own dependents should complete the King's blessing first.

Kanae’s face was also red.

This was also her first time kissing Ye Xiao in front of everyone.

Ye Xiao lowered his head and kissed Kanae.

Golden light reappeared.

Kanae was also somewhat lost in that gentle feeling.

Just like that, one after another.

Ye Xiao felt like an emotionless King's blessing machine.

Finally, it was Rias’s turn. Her face was already flushed, yet full of anticipation.

Ye Xiao gently cupped her face and slowly kissed her.

Golden light shone again, and Rias felt a powerful force surge into her body, a force that seemed to cleanse her very soul.

When the golden light dissipated, Rias opened her eyes, which sparkled with an unprecedented brilliance.

“This power is truly amazing.”

… … … …

As Ye Xiao’s King's blessing was completed, time passed little by little.

The moon and stars hung high in the sky.

Everyone had already rested.

Erica also returned home first, planning to bring her childhood friend to Komaou Academy to follow her once everything was settled.

At this moment, Ye Xiao lay on the mountaintop, enjoying the cool sea breeze and gazing at the scenery.

He couldn’t sleep much at night.

After all, he just came out to relax, who knew he would casually slay a god.

Anyone would be a bit excited.

“Hmm? Kanae?”

Ye Xiao noticed Kanae, dressed in a butterfly kimono, sitting alone by the sea, looking at the sky.

Kanae also looked a bit melancholic.

Of course, this was also the first time Ye Xiao had seen Kanae show this expression. He felt that Kanae was missing her sisters.

Ye Xiao also transformed into wind and sat down beside Kanae.

“What’s wrong, Kanae?”

Kanae was startled by Ye Xiao’s sudden appearance, then quickly composed herself.

“N-Nothing…”

“What do you mean ‘nothing’? It’s all written on your face.” Ye Xiao rubbed Kanae’s hair, saying with dissatisfaction. “Are you missing your sisters?”

Kanae hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

“I miss Shinobu and Kanao. I don’t know how they are doing now, and I’m a bit worried.”

Ye Xiao reached out and gently put his arm around her shoulder. Kanae also rested her head on Ye Xiao’s body.

After a long while.

“Don’t worry, in a few days, I’ll accompany you back to see them. And while we’re at it, I’ll drag Muzan out to get some sun. After everything is over, how about bringing your sisters back here to study?”

Ye Xiao said calmly.

Kanae leaned into Ye Xiao’s embrace, feeling his warmth, and her mood gradually calmed.

“Xiao, it’s so good to have you.”

“I will always be with you all. Not just you, I will also protect everyone I cherish.”

Saying that, Ye Xiao also lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.

The two kissed, listening to the sound of the waves, enjoying this tranquility and warmth.

On the distant horizon, moonlight spilled down, shimmering on the water, as if speaking of their beautiful future.

(Brothers, I suddenly had a thought to use the two sacred gears I have to turn the protagonist into the Heavenly Dao. What do you think? I’m a bit tempted.)
