Chapter 61: The Arrival of the Sword King

It was early morning the next day.

Erica had prepared early to go to the "Bronze Black Cross" to bring her childhood friend Liliana to be the King's vassal and retainer.

After all, this could be considered freeing her from a life of suffering.

Having tidied everything, Erica opened the door only to see a blond man and a middle-aged butler standing outside.

Erica was slightly startled, but quickly her eyes widened.

"Eh!? Sword King!?"

That's right, the person in front of Erica was the Sixth Godslayer, also known as Sword King, Salvatore Tony.

And the one beside him was his great knight, old friend, and butler, Andre Rivera.

"Hello, is the Seventh Godslayer inside?"

Tony said, then simply walked past Erica and went inside, ignoring her.

Looking at his King, who always acted on his own whims.

Andre, standing beside him, truly felt helpless; his King's mind contained nothing but swordsmanship.

Andre quickly pulled Tony back.

Such an uninvited intrusion into another King's residence was quite unfriendly.

"Andre!"

Tony looked at his great knight, who was holding him back, with some displeasure.

Andre, knowing his King's temperament, felt a bit helpless.

However, what he said next instantly quieted Tony.

"Your Majesty, you wouldn't want to be unable to fight this King, would you?"

Listening to Andre's words, Sword King Tony was instantly convinced.

He quickly patted his head and laughed loudly, "Hahaha, Andre, am I the kind of person who doesn't know manners?"

Andre didn't say anything, only gave Tony a look.

Looking at the two master and servant in front of her, Erica felt a little embarrassed; although she knew this King was warlike, she didn't expect him to show up today, having only become a Godslayer last night.

He was truly quick.

Tony, who had been slightly lectured by Andre, also looked at Erica.

"Miss, is the Seventh Godslayer in the house?"

"I'm sorry, the King is not here."

In response to Tony's question, Erica did not lie but spoke the truth.

"Not here?"

Tony was a bit disappointed, but seeing Erica about to leave, he also asked, "Then do you know where he is?"

Erica hesitated, wondering whether or not to tell Tony where her King was.

If she told him, her King would inevitably have to fight Sword King.

If she didn't tell him, it wouldn't be quite appropriate.

Perhaps sensing Erica's concerns, Andre gently pushed up his glasses and then said gently,

"Miss, we mean no harm. It's just that His Majesty yearns for a sparring match with him, who is also a Godslayer, and it won't cause any serious consequences. If you are truly inconvenient to tell us, we will not force you."

Listening to Andre's words, Erica still hesitated.

Although her King was very strong.

She also didn't want to bring trouble to her King.

She was about to say something, but with a gentle breeze, Erica instantly changed her mind.

"I can take you to see the King."

As Erica's words came out, Tony's eyes instantly lit up, and his face was full of excitement.

"Then we'll trouble you, Miss Erica."

"Mm."

...

It was still the same small island as yesterday.

On a fishing platform.

Ye Xiao had prepared rebar and aircraft carrier arresting wire, and after baiting, he began fishing.

The wind had already told Ye Xiao what happened with Erica, and Ye Xiao also used the wind to have Erica bring Sword King over.

Ye Xiao stretched.

Looking at his first fishing attempt today, he shouldn't come back empty-handed, right?

Time passed bit by bit.

Ye Xiao, sitting steadily on the fishing platform, hadn't caught a single fish yet.

At this moment, his myriad words condensed into one.

"Damn!"

Just then, a gentle breeze blew, bringing news from Erica.

"That's right, they should be here."

Ye Xiao stretched, then began to transmit his voice. "Kanae, Zhu Nai, please come here."

In a short while, Zhu Nai and Kanae walked over side by side.

"Xiao, is something the matter?"

"Oh my~ Xiao, did you need Zhu Nai for something? Or did you miss me~"

Ye Xiao looked at the two of them and smiled, "We have guests coming soon. Zhu Nai, please prepare some tea. Kanae, please go to the island entrance to meet Erica; she's bringing the guests."

"Understood, but who is this guest?"

Facing their confusion, Ye Xiao smiled mysteriously.

"It's the Sixth Godslayer, Sword King."

"Godslayer!"

Kanae and Zhu Nai were both startled.

They quickly took action; after all, in a normal setting, Zhu Nai also understood what was important.

Zhu Nai prepared tea, while Kanae went to the island entrance.

Likewise, Rias and the others also knew about the Sixth Godslayer's arrival and came to Ye Xiao's location, standing behind him.

After all, a King must have a King's presence.

Not long after, Kanae saw a yacht approaching.

She also saw Erica on the yacht, as well as the two unfamiliar people beside her; the young man among them must be the Sixth Godslayer.

Soon, Erica brought Tony and Andre to the island entrance.

Looking at the two people whose names she didn't know, Kanae bowed.

"I am Butterfly Kanae, sent by the King to welcome Sword King."

"Thank you for your trouble, please lead the way."

Kanae nodded and turned to lead the way.

Along the way, Tony was also very excited; if Andre hadn't held him back for the sake of his King's demeanor, Tony would probably have already gone to Ye Xiao and issued a challenge.

Soon, they arrived at Ye Xiao's location.

Ye Xiao was sitting on a fishing platform.

Andre looked at this young King with some curiosity, and he also saw the girls behind Ye Xiao.

"It seems this King is quite a romantic King."

Andre thought so.

Seeing that the people had arrived, Ye Xiao put down his fishing rod and got up to walk towards Tony and the others.

Tony looked at Ye Xiao with fervent eyes.

Is this the Seventh Godslayer? He really wanted to fight him immediately.

Tony also walked up and greeted Ye Xiao.

"Hahaha! I am the Sixth Godslayer, Sword King Salvatore Tony."

Tony sized up this new King and continued.

"May I know how to address Your Excellency?"

Ye Xiao's lips curved upwards, "I am the Seventh Godslayer, Ye Xiao."

Thus, the Sixth King and the Seventh King officially met.

"My dear friend, I heard you slew a god yesterday and became a new King. Today, I've come to spar with you."

Tony said impatiently, his eyes filled with a longing for battle.

As for why he called Ye Xiao "dear friend."

In Tony's case, the true meaning was "written as a strong enemy, read as a friend."

"Certainly, but allow me to first fulfill my duties as host; please have some tea."

Ye Xiao smiled slightly, and Zhu Nai timely brought the tea. Tony didn't hesitate and drank it directly.

"Good tea, but I prefer alcohol."

"I'll remember that. Next time you come, I'll have good wine to welcome you."
