Exp lover– Roy
Roy was wearing a cardinal robe standing in the middle of the Holy See Palace, holding a information file in his hand— "Seven Sisters•Compiled Information File".
The Holy See Palace was originally the residence of the Pope, but it became his residence after Roy became the 'Holy Son' of the Holy See.
On the ceiling and walls of the Sistine Chapel were carefully preserved, famous frescoes of "Book of Genesis" and "Last Judgment" painted by Michelangelo in four years.
The magnificent hall was filled with works of many famous artists and painters, brewing a sacred breath in the Hall.
"Seven Sisters... Isn't it the name of Italian football clubs— Juventus, AC Milan and Inter Milan, along with Roma, Fiorentina, Lazio and, Napoli!"
"I don't remember the plot of the 'Campione' anymore, it has been too long. But the author was definitely enervated when he choose this name, complete the work and go home early."
Roy secretly slandered.
He is only sixteen years old now. After the sixteen years of life in 'A Certain Magical Index' world, his memories of his previous life felt blurred even after becoming a Campione.
"Let me guess....."
"Copper Black Cross is AC Milan, Bronze Black Cross is Inter Milan, Olden Dame is Juventus, Capital of Lilies is Fiorentina...."
"Female Wolf is Roma, Eagle of the Blue Sky is Lazio and, Aegis is Napoli."
Roy put down the file in his hand amusedly and then fell into contemplation. Although these seven mage associations match with football clubs in Roy's memory, which makes him feel wacky.
However, these seven mage associations are actually the strongest force in the Italian magical circle.
"Aiwass, how is your research on
Under the famous painting "The Last Judgment", the shining figure of Aiwass manifested.
"A conclusion has been drawn on the existence on the appearance of the Heretic God."
"Human beings have created the concept of Gods due to their fear and belief in the unknown, the weaving of these epic, legends, myths and folk tales resonated with a certain 'Aspect' in a certain mystical way which caused the Gods to form."
"This 'Aspect' also named as 'Realm of Immortality' lies beyond the 'Boundary of Life and Immortality', where the gods who have not rebelled against their myths dwell."
"Because of some special reason, a very small number of Gods get seperated from the Realm of Immortality and became the Heretic Gods roaming on earth."
"...The Heretic Gods are more like the Incarnations of Gods, these Incarnations are supported by a 'supernatural core', a part of the origin of True Gods as well as 'spiritual information base', a accumulation of information from myths and legends."
"Pandora's
Aiwass talked about the relationship between the Heretic Gods and Campione that it had researched.
"In other words, the Heretic Gods are actually like heroic spirits but, the incarnations of gods are much stronger than those people who have been sublimated into heroic spirits because of their great achievements."
"The conceptual information of Gods exists in mythology, legends and folklores, and the Heretic God adventing on earth is the process of using this information to become an physical entity under the combined action of the unique rules and magic of this world."
Roy nodded slightly, he understood about the formation of Heretic Gods.
This is almost the same as the concept of the heroic spirit in the 'FGO' game he played in the past, except that the heroic spirit's 'spirit' reside in the Throne of Heroes. They become herioc spirits due to their achievements.
Whereas, Heretic God's are incarnation of True Gods who are formed due to myths and legends, their 'spirit' resides in 'Realm of Immortality'.
They all descend in the form of incarnations, and the 'supernatural core' is their 'foundation' of existence in the material world.
Under normal circumstances, the 'supernatural core' of the Incarnation of the Heretic Gods will dissipates when their incarnation is slayed.
However, Pandora's
There are no real, naturally occurring Gods in the 'Campione' world. They are only conceptual information woven by human beliefs in mythology.
When these concepts or information gains 'consciousness' and they descend on the earth, these Gods descend as Heretic Gods. When they do not descend on the earth, they are in Realm of Immortality.
This is a paradox. The True gods can never appear in front of mortals but, the gods that can appear in front of morals are Heretic Gods. The ordinary people without mana cannot even see the Heretic God.
"So, in fact, it is not difficult to completely eliminate the gods, because the gods exist because of the myths woven by humanity."
"We have to figure out the relationship as well as cause and effect of this phenomenon. The gods come from the myth... So, if human history is wiped out, or all humans die, the gods will naturally die out."
(A/N: These are the original word of the Campione's creator. If you want the gods to disappear completely, you must let the humans disappear.)
This information is very critical to Roy, maybe, by using the loop holes he can plunder a God's Authority without killing them?
Roy's goal is to raise the 'Sword of Rebellion' to his Father. With the power of the so-called Campione he now possesses, in front of Aleister Crowley, this power is actually as ridiculously weak as a child's toy.
Therefore, Roy must turn these 'toys' into real weapons.
That's why no matter what his outer behavior maybe, his mentality has not changed after gaining so much strength.
"Aiwass, what do you think are the major flaws of a Campione?"
Roy asked again.
Although becoming a Campione can make one directly ascend to the sky in one step, directly skipping countless years of hard work, the upper limit of a Campione is really not high.
No matter how many Heretic Gods you kill, the magical energy reserve will remain the same, the magical energy will not accumulate at all.
The power you possess will not increase, there will only be a quantitative change in number of Divine Authorities.
The difference between the oldest Campione and the newly born Campione is not in terms of power, but in terms of experience.
In gaming terms, a Campione's leveling journey starts at Level 100 and ends at Level 100.They cannot increase their Level to 101, no matter how many 'monsters' they kill.
By slaying these 'monsters', will only gain new 'skills', no 'exp'. This is really a torture for 'exp lover' like Roy.
This is the huge flaw of Pandora's
However being stuck at a Level, this is not what Roy wants. If he only relies on himself, Roy will naturally find it difficult to break through the shackles of a godslayer in a short time.
However, he has the help of Aiwass, a 'Secret Chief', an existence equal in the 'nature' to a God of Magic, a being far stronger than all the gods in this world combined, she can naturally do it!
Compared to the mysterious space that allows him to travel through the different worlds, Roy believes that Aiwass is his actual 'golden finger'.
"I need more 'knowledge' of this world to be able to improve Pandora's
Aiwass responded to Roy.
"Well, thanks, Aiwass! I will try my best to acquire more knowledge to help you."
Roy sighed softly.
Although he has the help of Aiwass, it is impossible to get Aiwass's knowledge before being able to understand Aiwass's words.
It is like a primary school student facing a university teacher, although the primary school student doesn't need to understand the complicated math problems, just write according to the teacher's dictation.
However, the primary school student doesn't even know the basic mathematical symbols, so he will not able to write what the teacher is dictating, much less be able to understand it.
Roy is equivalent to that primary school student in front of Aiwass. Unless, he possess knowledge rich enough to understand Aiwass's words, he cannot understand Aiwass's teaching.
'Killing a Heretic God to explode a material that allows you to break through the shackles of the current level. Isn't this a certain game i played before? Kill monsters, gain exp. No, this is the very case in every isekai...'
Roy thought to himself.
"Well, knowledge must be learned with full enthusiasm, and the goals must be completed one by one..."
"I will personally visit Italy's 'Seven Sisters'. Those magic associations must be hesitating now. Those mages will dare not to disobey my orders..."
"I think it's the presence of 'King of Swords', Salvatore Doni which makes them hesitate to choose between two Campione."
He hummed, inserted his right hand in his pocket, and soon, the red figure left the Sistine Chapel.
"Tell me where the leaders of the Seven Sisters are. I'm going to personally meet them!"
Roy said so to the shock and horror of the priest guardians at the door.
These clergymen did not expect that the 'king' will go to the Seven Sisters in person!
