Little Garden 226-230

Title: How Does It Feel to Trip Up?

“By the way, have you prepared the Gift Game?”

Athena turned, asked Aslan curiously.

Generally, banquet this big usually holds corresponding Gift Game to liven atmosphere.

While generating entry fees cover costs, promote their Community, increase influence.

“Of course... not yet.”

Aslan sighed helplessly.

“So many people, how should I prepare? Anyway no relevant experience.”

Aslan said somewhat complaining. Arcadia only few manpower, what could do?

“But already prepared one entertainment event.”

While saying, threw sheet White Contract, Gift Game condensed with Host Master Authority.

Impossible have prizes, but entry fee not low.

Like join, join. Not like, just leave.

This Aslan’s attitude toward group still lingering, wanting see if entertainment.

“Holding Holy Grail War in different eras and times? Quite interesting.”

Athena held White Contract thrown by Aslan, smiled seeing content.

【Gift Game: Lostbelt · Holy Grail War】

【Completion Condition: Obtain Holy Grail, return history to proper path】

【Completion Method One: Obtain Master qualification, summon Heroic Spirit, participate in Holy Grail War, obtain Holy Grail, destroy abnormal distortion point.】

【Completion Method Two: Occupy Hero Throne, with Organizer help, create alternate identity Servant, participate in Holy Grail War, obtain Holy Grail.】

【Seal of Aslan from Arcadia】

For this game, Canaria worked hard create thousands large small Lostbelts, all taken from history and myths in Human History.

Of course, these Lostbelts’ function not just for this Gift Game. This time only test if bugs when run.

True use in future as Aslan’s Host Master Authority as Fictional Historian, easier deny others’ Spirit Status with fictional history, deny others’ merits.

As for those worlds, slices of eras created by him.

“Of course, this game I participated when wandering certain world.”

“Alright.”

Athena laughed hearing that.

“Originally wanted ask, need help?”

Aslan didn’t look, instead turned, sought Karyou drinking beside to play.

Canaria’s ability still very good, all needed arrangements done. And now, needed greetings also finished.

Aslan finally could relax bit.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

Approaching noon, End of the World City.

Five-story commercial building near city outskirts.

Rin wearing trench coat and hoodie passed small alley, arrived commercial building roadside, glanced clothing store, took out key, entered side iron door, directly went third floor.

*TOK-TOK!*

Two short three long knocks sounded, faint spatial wave echoed.

Entered boundary with password, Rin opened room door entered.

What seen wide living room. In living room center four rows sofas, each row sat one figure.

“Rin, you’re back.”

On sofa facing door, Kalki lifting head showed faint smile.

“Yes, His Highness.”

Rin closed door, walked nearest sofa. Before could sit, Lamia tying hair twintails on right sofa winked, asked impatiently.

“How’s brother-in-law’s preparation?”

“Now should set multi-layer traps, waiting our arrival, right?”

Corner Rin’s mouth twitched slightly.

(Hey, be serious!)

(Though we same position regarding Arcadia, please note we now Ouroboros!)

(We Arcadia’s enemies!)

(Mind secret agent ethics!)

(And His Highness, you too. Where learn curtain-closing, propping head with both hands, illuminating lower half face with lamp light?)

(When start acting bad!)

“Rin, don’t you feel this very cool, like criminal organization leader?”

As if seeing Rin’s inner complaints, Kalki said somewhat cheerfully.

Just seeing Kalki’s so cheerful mood, Rin could only ignore.

Anyway, Kalki just child.

“How intelligence investigation?”

Deep male voice sounded. Rin slightly turned, saw large-bodied figure, nearly crushing entire sofa.

Graiya also only result old Arcadia allies’ efforts?

Wondered if could find info on Kasukabe Koumei from Rin.

Rin recalled task given by unreliable teacher Canaria, felt tired.

“Due Second Alliance activities, Heavenly Army’s Bishamonten and Prithvi Mata left last night.”

“Additionally, Pallas Athena also recalled by Zeus, guard Olympus, face Egyptian and Babylonian Pantheons’ movements.”

“Hmm? Something wrong?”

Kalki stunned moment, said sweating.

“This not right, right? Shouldn’t they left face incoming attack?”

“Not sure, but likely preparing trap.”

Rin also couldn’t guess what Aslan truly wanted, could only judge based current situation.

“Maybe not really gone, but lurking in darkness?”

Kalki guessed somewhat uncertainly.

“No, through observation, language, divination, other methods, confirmed. Even Shiroyasha not in Arcadia now. Seems she and Karyou returned visit relatives?”

Corner Rin’s mouth twitched. Slightly didn’t know what say.

Whether say Aslan arrogant? Or truly confident?

“Currently left in Arcadia, Four-Digit combat power only Aslan, Letícia, and Kurousagi.”

“No, they plan use this lineup face our attack?”

Graiya said disappointedly. Though knew all secret agents, shouldn’t act like this.

“Really don’t understand why First Alliance big shots send us rebels here?”

“To trouble them?”

Graiya sneered, tone very mocking.

“Maybe... we just bait.”

Rin seemed thought something, said not too certainly.

With her voice, everyone in room silent. No one spoke long time.

All thought one person, figure truly controlling Third Alliance, existence made all shudder.

He Prophet, also Mithras, alternate identity top Almighty Domain.

Alternate identity true Gods’ King, Four-Digit Outlier monster.

For such elder alternate identity, ordinary Four-Digit Outlier, except Origin Candidate holding Origin Candidate, ordinary people no match at all.

Truly bold. New Arcadia leader’s mentality?

But before could speak, male voice sounded throughout End of the World City.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I current Arcadia leader, Aslan.”

Rin, Kalki, all present, Asura hiding city corner, even large white-haired Prophet, lifted heads simultaneously.

They saw White Contracts scattering from sky.

Aslan’s voice fell with Contracts.

“Very glad you could come End of the World City, attend my banquet.”

“So decided hold Gift Game liven atmosphere.”

“However, considering banquet participants too many, even exceed total End of the World City population. So, decided invite everyone in End of the World City participate this game!”

“Starting now, everyone can choose.”

“Whether go to Lostbelt I created participate Holy Grail War, or stay in real world.”

Once words fell.

Rain of Parchments covered sky, pure white Parchments written game content, fell from sky.

Symbolized Host Master Authority from Good God side.

Born from void, fell, like no physical entity, passed physical obstacles one by one, but touchable by living.

Large white-haired Mithras, originally didn’t want reach take, but instant, face slightly changed, coldly snorted.

“Good, good, good, quite bold. Nearly fooled.”

Mithras grabbed White Contract pale-faced, participated Gift Game.

Originally wanted imitate Krishna, directly attack with Three-Digit power thoroughly clean Aslan, this disruptor.

Along with Arcadia allies cleaned, none left.

Arcadia... starting disrupt. Especially that Athena, and Heavenly Army.

After all Little Garden countdown destruction, why follow rules?

Just now, which good person holds Gift Game using Demon Lord coercion?

And damn, Moon Rabbit Judge Authority added!!

Forcing people participate Gift Game, isn’t this only Demon Lords can do? Why Moon Rabbit Judge Authority added?

“Hey, Little Garden’s Central Core, want report cheating, rule violation!”

Mithras never expected first step already tripped.

No, wasn’t plan this simple? Still trip?

Mithras sank in contemplation...

If not Judge Authority above, strengthening link between Host Master Authority and Little Garden’s Central Core.

Long used illegal method place self outside Gift Game.

Directly block Little Garden’s Central Core, use true Three-Digit power. Before Little Garden’s Central Core react, destroy entire End of the World City.

As for people inside, Pantheons, what business with him? Already big profit if Almighty Domain accompanies death.

As for now... if not want involved with Winds of Decadence, better not violate rules.

-

Title: The One Playing with Contracts is Cunning!

“I found you!”

Aslan smiled faintly. By dragging entire End of the World City into Gift Game he hosted, finally found unknown enemy hiding.

That old powerful Prophet—Mithras.

Decided confront suspected alternate identity of long-existing Christianity’s Holy Child.

No choice, enemy old monster long famous, Almighty Domain survived Dawn era still active Little Garden stage.

Top Almighty Domain, only below near Two-Digit existences like Zeus and Indra.

Even Athena seemed young compared him.

Rather secretly targeted by such existence, Aslan preferred drag out, throw under sunlight, kill first!

Didn’t like stalked by old monster all day.

Once words fell, White Contract fell from sky, directly toward Mithras.

“Displacement!”

Aslan swapped mass with falling Contract’s mass. With physique comparable Star Spirit, own mass already star level.

Not including other explosion methods. In sense, Aslan now star in human form.

When Contract with swapped mass fell, could consider falling star directly.

However, next second, strong large hand caught Contract without slightest surprise, checked content.

Seeing scene, Aslan just wanted curse.

“Damn, this time truly met old monster!”

Dragon catching star-mass Contract bare-handed... Too excessive.

Originally wanted teach lesson, gather info on him.

Planned intense bare-handed fight, but now forget.

And before Aslan reacted, pure white Contract suddenly turned black.

Black Parchment? Demon Lord Host Master Authority!

“My Lord told me evil person stalking me. My Lord said, evil person must fight fairly with me.”

Mithras held Contract, said gentle tone.

While speaking, gaze pierced space, saw Aslan watching from higher dimension.

Aslan shocked discovered somehow entered opponent’s Gift Game scope.

(What? Entered someone else’s Demon Lord Gift Game inside Gift Game I hosted myself?)

Aslan narrowed eyes, took Contract shooting from void to hand, saw content.

【Gift Game Name: Fair Contract】

【Destroy unfair Contract, sign fair Contract.】

【Seal of Mithras】

Besides that, nothing valuable.

Contract?

What Contract?

Aslan saw no Contract at all.

“Highest Obfuscation Authority? Last Trial of Mankind?”

Corner Aslan’s mouth twitched.

Was this Li Kui meeting Li Gui? (Metaphor for original meeting fake)

(Truly funny. Dares play shallow understanding Last Trial of Mankind before real one like me.)

However, when Aslan broke Obfuscation Authority, saw true hidden Gift Game content.

Couldn’t hold spit curse.

“Worthily old man playing Contracts, plays cunningly.”

What saw? Just saw Contract using tens thousands languages, covered various word games, logic traps, length hundreds trillions words.

This also true solving method opponent’s Gift Game.

Namely directly debate with this old geezer, find one by one unfair contents in Contract, fix to fairest situation.

Otherwise, must directly defeat old man.

“Old man, your heart too cunning, right?”

Right when Aslan sighed, suddenly hand appeared behind, grabbed head.

Aslan quickly tilted head, successfully dodged grip.

Cunning, truly too cunning.

Aslan never expected, when Mithras said “My Lord said, evil person must fight fairly with me.”

Forcibly twisted mark Aslan left on his Gift Game, forcibly signed fair Contract with him.

Right, very fair, fair in dividing everything his.

Aslan’s power and Authority divided two at moment, one in his hand, other added to Mithras’s body.

But luckily, Lower Layer, Mithras only succeeded by twisting Contract.

So, only power and Space Authority divided.

“But luckily, I can be even more cunning.”

Corner Aslan’s mouth showed mad smile. Raised hand, strongly grabbed Mithras’s arm.

Though currently, Mithras’s power far stronger, but if could sign Contract, couldn’t Aslan swap Party A and B?

“Displacement!”

Next second, Aslan’s power returned, simultaneously strengthened by half Mithras’s Star Body power.

Nearly one and half times usual.

Aslan exerted power, directly tore opponent’s right arm.

Seeing bright golden blood like stars flowing from opponent’s wound, shocked.

“Star Body? You didn’t pass Trayastrimsa Heaven descend as human?”

(Damn, no wonder this old geezer’s physical quality so excessive, nearly matching me. Turns out sneaked down.)

Star Body, Almighty Domains’ Divine Body after breaking Three-Digit experiencing sublimation. Mass and density comparable star. Every move can trigger devastating natural disaster.

Simply, after becoming Three-Digit, their Divine Body power automatically rises to level comparable Star Spirit.

Just Star Body and Star Spirit Body still differ. Star Body more like God Avatar, embodiment their Authority and majesty. Existence alone can cause unimaginable damage to world.

While Star Spirit Body pure physical quality, pure hardness.

Just, what puzzled Aslan, how Mithras sneaked to Lower Layer without impact?

What appeared before Aslan now not Mithras’s alternate identity, not Mithras after descending as human.

But true Almighty Domain Body, Mithras, somehow hid in Lower Layer while maintaining Three-Digit essence.

Just dared not leak power exceeding Four-Digit Outlier.

This aroused Aslan’s curiosity. How Mithras limited power, strongly limited to Four-Digit Outlier level?

“Old geezer, how hide in Lower Layer? Tell me.”

Aslan turned, pressed Mithras under, strongly pressed under body, asked curiously.

“Want know?”

Mithras stunned moment, showed faint smile, not feeling captured at all.

“Then I’ll tell you. It’s Vow!”

Vow also one type Contract, but Vow self-signed Contract with self, absolutely unbreakable.

As Contract Authority master Almighty Domain, Mithras naturally could sign Contract with self. Even limit power, behavior, even own Authorities.

Through Vow, Mithras strongly limited power output boundary to Four-Digit Outlier. Couldn’t break boundary any way.

Of course, as Contract master existence, occasionally breaking Contract naturally no issue.

“Damn, old man, your heart truly cunning!!”

Aslan released pressed Mithras under, stood still beside.

Mithras happily patted new dust on white robe.

Stood beside like famous teacher, teaching Aslan Contract knowledge.

Right on Aslan’s earlier question, once again signed teacher-disciple Contract with Mithras. One important clause teacher must not harm disciple, disciple not harm teacher.

Other clause teacher must seriously teach disciple, disciple seriously listen lessons, teacher answer every disciple question.

This left Aslan not knowing where start.

Swap identities? What’s use swapping?

Still can’t harm each other, even possibly leak info.

“You’re welcome. You’re more cunning, kid playing Displacement Magic.”

Mithras crossed Little Garden years, who knows how many heroes lost under his Contracts, became slaves. First time tripped in Aslan’s hands.

Never seen magic like this swapping concepts. This even more cunning than his Contracts.

Even more cunning, Aslan truly developed near Authority level.

This kid, wasn’t playing space?

(If this old man/kid not die here, truly can’t sleep.)

At same time, Aslan and Mithras’s thoughts highly aligned.

(This old geezer should be natural God, right?)

Aslan thought inwardly, no longer wanted play. Time activate Another Cosmology.

“Void Star Tai Sui!”

(Already prepared your this step. Think I didn’t seriously gather info?)

Mithras sneered. Know why not limit Aslan using Displacement Magic manipulate concepts?

To prevent Aslan activate Another Cosmology.

Though Another Cosmology activation zero-frame (instant) high priority, as long as limited before activated, enough.

“Contract: Both parties prohibited using Another Cosmology.”

Strong Contract power limited Aslan’s link to Void Star Tai Sui, made unable use Another Cosmology.

Limit Another Cosmology? Mithras no such ability, but limit Aslan very easy.

Just cost bit high. Could only limit one.

Aslan also found Mithras’s weakness, corner mouth showed evil smile, laughed very arrogantly.

“Old man, didn’t expect I have second, right?”

While saying, Aslan gripped. Beautiful bright golden spear held in hand, pointed at Mithras.

“Old man, think need how many spears kill you?”

“Think you can’t even stab once!”

Mithras still said with punchable smiling face.

Before words fell, coquettish voice sounded.

“Six Paths Reincarnation: Asura Path!”

Next second, Vasavi Shakti originally in Aslan’s hand disappeared, shocking him.

Aslan turned, saw Asura somehow appeared, asked unconsciously.

“What happened?”

(No, since when you appear, damn? Wasn’t happily participating Holy Grail War? And in time slice I created, causing chaos in Hell.)

“That’s Teammate Contract. Surely played online games, right? Inspired by that Contract. Teammates can’t harm each other, also summon each other.”

Teacher clause to answer disciple questions triggered. Mithras laughed explained to Aslan.

In his eyes now, Aslan out of moves, all usable ways used.

Now wait Asura attack finish Aslan.

“Watch what? Won’t participate unfair lopsided fight.”

Asura coldly snorted, stored own Six Paths Reincarnation: Asura Path Another Cosmology, one part Six Paths Reincarnation, also Asura Clan’s most important inherited Gift.

Asura Clan may suffer, but this absolutely not.

And Six Paths Reincarnation: Asura Path can overall boost Asura Clan power, trigger all Asura Clan potential, simultaneously seize others’ weapons, grant immortality to Asura Clan. No matter killed how, can return from Asura Path.

In Asura’s hands, even could, with Asura Path support, legally exert power exceeding Little Garden boundary, like Last Trial of Mankind.

But due background, plus she’s Indra’s biological daughter, Indra’s blood flows in body.

Plus Asura Path ability, naturally easily seize Vasavi Shakti from Aslan’s hand.

After Asura finished, red flames ignited. Red Lotus Karmic Fire burned whole body, also severed Teammate Contract once made with Mithras.

Golden Wing Flame burns existence, Red Lotus Karmic Fire burns all karma, i.e. sins, cause-effect, etc.

Small Contract can’t withstand Red Lotus Karmic Fire.

Asura didn’t attack. Aslan also relieved. Seems not time use trump card yet.

Just this old geezer, who came true Body, still maintaining Three-Digit Spirit Status. This left Aslan very helpless.

If other party Four-Digit Outlier, Aslan had ways deny Spiritual Rank, merits, Divinity, even Authorities. Why this complicated?

(Damn, this old geezer truly cunning.)

(This kid shouldn’t have other trump cards, right?)

Mithras didn’t know why felt chill on back. Seemed grateful not descended as human.

Kids nowadays, truly worsening. Lucky acted early.

Otherwise, who knows how far this kid grow.

-

Title: Are You Joking Right Now?

(Tch, this old geezer too cautious, right?)

Aslan clicked tongue unhappily, gave up initial intent summon his Beast Vassal for surprise attack.

Contract signed with him stipulated neither could harm other any way.

Meaning, any method Aslan could use under this identity couldn’t hurt Mithras.

Unless Aslan switched identities now, use second account.

Wait, even switched second account, for Contract, Aslan still same individual. Meaning, Contract’s binding power still applied.

(This old geezer... truly.)

Regarding calling reinforcements? Wanted to, but Aslan still waiting Mithras use Prohibition Paper given by World Dragon.

Perhaps, before reinforcements arrived, already prohibited.

After all, Aslan not yet want exposed in World Dragon’s view. Clearly, Mithras same thought.

“Oh? No other ways?”

Mithras raised eyebrow, forehead wrinkles increased few.

“Then, now my turn attack, right?”

After Mithras said this, Aslan suddenly more alert.

What other method this old geezer use?

However, after long silence, Aslan felt no change at all in situation.

Conversely, Mithras’s face showed slight surprise.

Because Mithras met accident, now Aslan’s turn laugh.

“Old geezer, don’t tell me trump card you prepared met accident?”

Aslan asked holding back laughter.

“Strange, didn’t we make agreement? Why Judas not dare attack?”

Mithras ignored Aslan’s mockery, muttered softly.

Agreement made with Christianity’s Holy Child real reason dared come alone destroy Arcadia and Aslan.

As Little Garden’s strongest fighter, even destroyed by Winds of Decadence, Holy Child could easily resurrect him.

As for destroying Arcadia and killing Aslan alone, lacked courage.

Dared not provoke Shiroyasha.

Only under Two-Digit pressure dared do this.

And now, accident happened.

(No? Judas, where promised reinforcements? Why your people not appear? Not even slightest will.)

Instantly, Mithras’s face darkened. Slight embarrassment in eyes looking at Aslan.

(Gulp, can we reconcile?)

“Pfft!”

Aslan couldn’t hold laughter.

(Are you joking right now?)

Finally, situation reversed. Now his turn.

“But, curious one thing. Who exactly Judas? As Holy Child’s alternate identity, why need Judas’s help?”

Aslan stared curiously.

Judas, famous for betrayal, should only considered ordinary Three-Digit in Little Garden. Estimated couldn’t compare Cain, let alone top Almighty Domain like Mithras.

“Oh? Turns out you don’t know this.”

Mithras showed faint smile. Perhaps lifeline chance. Explained.

“Judas betrayed Jesus, true Holy Child founded Christianity. Swallowed His Spirit Status, replaced Him, became current Christianity’s Holy Child.”

“But natural you don’t know. Happened during Dystopia War era. Then, Lord of Hosts somehow suddenly turned Dystopia Demon Lord.”

“True Holy Child Jesus also quarreled with Lord of Hosts then. Seems tried stop last becoming Dystopia, but ultimately beaten severely injured, then Judas took advantage.”

“Otherwise, without accident, truly could become Two-Digit should be Jesus, not Judas.”

“No... why?”

Just as Mithras about continue, pitch-black hand suddenly pierced chest cavity, crushed heart.

“Why think I’d give time prepare Paradox Game?”

Pitch-black hand condensed by Blacklight Virus slowly retracted into Aslan’s body.

In that situation, Aslan could only use second account Angra Mainyu, borrow Last Trial of Mankind power break deadlock.

Otherwise, only one result waiting Aslan, forcibly dragged into Paradox Game.

As for Mithras’s very confused question, why Judas not attack, Aslan perhaps could help answer.

As known, Two-Digits can’t ascend Little Garden stage. Even alternate identities forbidden descend. Other methods like Will Descent naturally same, all illegal.

Because illegal, then Little Garden’s greatest Rule Enforcer, Winds of Decadence, must summoned.

Aslan just waiting Mithras request backing Holy Child attack. That way, Aslan perhaps could kill Two-Digit with Winds of Decadence help.

Just Two-Digits still Two-Digits, not easy fall into trap. That Judas even dared not lower gaze slightest.

In sense, just observing Little Garden already illegal for Two-Digits, can trigger Winds of Decadence attack.

However, current Two-Digits all very cunning. Even if Little Garden’s Central Core attacks, not necessarily catch red-handed.

Unless like Aslan did, enforce law by baiting.

“But somewhat surprising. True body that Holy Child turns out Judas.”

Aslan slightly shocked. Little Garden’s bizarre mythology development once again gave considerable surprise.

“Feel this news perhaps can exploit.”

Aslan narrowed eyes. Evil delight in eyes nearly overflowed, made watching Asura beside feel chill.

(This Aslan too bold, right? Suddenly wants use this news trap Holy Child once.)

(As Two-Digit, anything said will known. Just mentioning real name already big risk.)

(Especially thinking ways trap Full Authority Domain)

(Estimated moment think plan, they already know.)

(This Aslan isn’t too arrogant?)

Even Asura, couldn’t help shocked by Aslan’s arrogance.

Fact, even knowing Judas backstabbed Jesus, swallowed Jesus’s Spirit Status become Two-Digit, wouldn’t say anything.

After all, Two-Digit power enough explain all dissatisfaction. Other party Two-Digit. His words truth. Says He who, then He is that!

Who dares dissatisfied? Betrayal? Sorry, Little Garden only remembers winners. History books always written by winners.

Despised one becomes supreme existence, then why say He despised?

Aslan naturally also wouldn’t care these things. Even cared, couldn’t change fact other party won became strongest.

But who told other party want be his enemy? Then this news has great use value.

Especially when Aslan Fictional Historian.

Two-Digits truth, truth. However Two-Digit views history, that’s history.

But Aslan Fictional Historian, right? Doesn’t care that one this one!

Which good person making rumors needs care other party’s truth?

This very good material for Aslan make fictional history. If exploited well, perhaps shake that Holy Child’s Spirit Status.

How possible despised one become true Holy Child?

You fake Holy Child, don’t block true God’s Second Son become Holy Child.

Aslan believed, God’s Second Son surely wouldn’t miss chance like this target Holy Child.

If can’t shake Holy Child’s Spirit Status, at least make annoyed.

Next, Aslan shifted gaze to awkward Asura holding Vasavi Shakti beside.

Feeling Aslan’s gaze, Asura actively stepped back.

“Think we can’t considered enemies, right?”

Asura said somewhat awkwardly. Also knew behavior truly unethical, seized Aslan’s weapon while he and Mithras fighting.

Though didn’t attack Aslan after.

But behavior like this, honestly, already inevitable enmity with Aslan.

Pity, currently holding Vasavi Shakti and Six Paths Reincarnation: Asura Path, but also felt not necessarily defeat Aslan.

Instinct told, if attacked now, Asura perhaps wouldn’t last more than three attacks.

After all this cruel person directly killed Mithras. Didn’t think life more valuable than Mithras.

Especially now someone to blame. Dead can’t speak.

“If not wrong, just borrowed Angra Mainyu’s power, right?”

To truly kill Mithras, only Last Trial of Mankind power truly could kill Almighty Domain, even Two-Digits not.

Unknown if other party has hidden alternate identity.

Two-Digits not omniscient omnipotent.

“So what? Anyway, only know one thing, dead won’t speak.”

Aslan smiled staring. Because Asura already acted hostile, must prepare bear consequences.

Like facing bullied Nobita by Giant. Help Giant or spectate both bully Nobita. Especially Asura also seized Aslan’s weapon.

Caused must open one trump card. Otherwise, Aslan still could hide awhile longer.

Not like now, Aslan could only add one more identity, namely surrendered to Angra Mainyu.

Simultaneously explain how Aslan regained Vasavi Shakti.

Because Canaria joined Angra Mainyu, he also joined.

Problem? No problem at all.

During Dystopia War, weren’t few Pantheons surrendered to Dystopia?

Asura admitted slightly regretting now. Regret attacked seized Vasavi Shakti.

If knew, better just kidnapped Kurousagi.

Eh... seems not right either.

Seems if kidnapped Kurousagi, fate also not much better.

Asura finally realized one thing, if want target Indra, seems completely can’t pass Aslan hurdle.

Seems whatever happens, only end like this.

Thinking this, Asura closed eyes somewhat desperately.

“Just kill me!”

-

Title: Asura, the Smart Child

“Just kill me!”

Asura struggled in despair, bound to Vasavi Shakti like a slaughtered pig.

While Aslan shouldered Vasavi Shakti, preparing to return.

“Kill you? Better not. Don’t want provoke entire Ksitigarbha Faction.”

Aslan sneered, no longer caring ancient declaration little girl learned who knows where.

Kill her? How possible? Too wasteful.

Setting aside Asura Clan’s Queen’s appearance and charm, though immature, her innocent pure face, if savored carefully, actually very appealing.

Could say worthily Asura Clan woman, born very beautiful.

Taking back as hot weapon better than killing.

Moreover Asura’s background. Indra’s daughter, holder one part Another Cosmology Six Paths Reincarnation.

If Aslan didn’t ask Athena before acting, perhaps truly cruelly destroy this beautiful flower.

Asura not hold Asura Path from Six Paths Reincarnation, but Original Candidate entire Six Paths Reincarnation, created by Buddha.

And one making Asura Original Candidate precisely Ksitigarbha himself, Ksitigarbha vowed “As long as hell not empty, swear not become Buddha.”

Very headache-inducing. And not just this headache.

One more, though Six Paths Reincarnation severely damaged due hell destruction incident, basic functions still remain.

Even Last Trial of Mankind can’t truly kill one protected by Samsara (Reincarnation).

Can’t kill. Even killed, other party still return from Samsara. Only uncertain if next second, or years later.

Better capture as prisoner.

“Anyway, can you only say that sentence?”

Aslan shook Vasavi Shakti where Asura hung, urging answer question.

“Where’s courage when seized Vasavi Shakti challenged duel?”

“Guk~”

Sound like young pigeon heard. Asura closed eyes, as if closing eyes could escape reality.

Activated Host Master Authority, even dragged Aslan into own Demon Lord Game, then thoroughly beaten by Aslan using Displacement Magic.

In end, became Aslan’s slave, how could accept?

Rather like this, preferred accept reality killed by him.

Rather than humiliatingly hung like dead pig.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

At Arcadia headquarters, conference room.

Karyou poked Asura’s cheek hung by Aslan curiously, said somewhat incredulously.

“You captured her this easily?”

How strong Asura, Karyou knew well. Otherwise, wouldn’t hold back not involve in battle conflict with Asura.

However, precisely because that, so shocked.

“So what? If identity not too special, not advised kill, surely already killed by Mithras.”

Aslan shrugged casually.

“Really headache how handle this girl now.”

Force become his Biological Card, truly his? But Another Cosmology in body too headache.

Asura currently tightly bound to Six Paths Reincarnation. Unless Aslan could take entire Six Paths Reincarnation left by hell then.

In sense, so-called Six Paths Reincarnation should also one inheritance left by Chinese Pantheon. Sun Wukong lacked ability truly completely destroy Six Paths hell.

Just hell used that excuse leave Little Garden.

Heaven similar. When Sun Wukong caused chaos Heavenly Palace, Heaven nearly only empty shell left.

But what to do, hell and Buddha Faction relations quite good, especially Samsara concept proposed by Buddha Faction.

In end, Ksitigarbha inherited hell become empty shell and incomplete Six Paths Reincarnation.

Now, Ksitigarbha estimated wants repair Six Paths Reincarnation, lead hell.

If possible, Aslan didn’t want direct clash with famous Ksitigarbha.

Just targeted by Mithras already spent so much effort resolve. If targeted again by old monster like Ksitigarbha... who knows how exhausted.

Oh, and Indra, that pathetic god.

Problems on shoulders already plenty.

“Killed by Mithras...”

Corner Karyou’s mouth twitched. Blame-shifting move too skilled.

“But indeed quite troublesome.”

Karyou pondered moment, shook head, found no way handle.

Release clearly impossible. After all Aslan prepared kill, estimated knew important news need silence.

“Whatever, just hang like that first.”

Aslan rubbed temples headache, glanced Asura closed eyes humiliated face but looked very loyal, unwilling surrender.

Every time see Asura like this, Aslan wanted complain. Who made good Asura Queen become like this?

Truly triggered evil thoughts.

Last suffer similar fate Asura Clan Prince kidnapped Karyou before. But Asura’s treatment still slightly better than him.

At least Aslan didn’t strip Asura.

“Guk~”

Young pigeon sound heard again. Aslan and Karyou exchanged glances, together shifted gaze to Asura.

Asura’s closed-eyes face showed slight redness.

“Sound from where? Thought you’d say ‘Gulp, just kill me’ again.”

Aslan suspiciously observed Asura, curiously sought sound source.

Sound seemed not from Asura’s throat, but...

From stomach.

Indeed, next second, heard again. Aslan heard clearly, from stomach.

Feeling two... or more gazes on stomach, Asura showed extremely humiliated expression.

Now doubted life. Her Another Cosmology deliberately targeting?

Why Hungry Ghost Path start awaken now.

“N-Not my stomach hungry!”

Asura said very stubbornly. If stomach not sound again, would quite convincing.

However, facing Aslan and Karyou’s half-smiling gazes, Asura felt bad premonition in heart.

“What will you do? Won’t eat single bite from you!”

“Karyou, hungry? After big battle, stomach bit hungry.”

Aslan rubbed stomach. Earlier big battle quite draining, especially final battle against Asura.

“How about ask Kurousagi make something eat?”

Karyou nodded agreement. Though just ate home, eat again now also fine.

For them, eating more like enjoyment. Eat much or little naturally adjustable at will, unless high-energy food.

Soon, Kurousagi pushed small cart full various delicious dishes made rare ingredients, walked over.

Whether intentional or not, while Aslan and Karyou enjoyed food, Kurousagi even actively took fan, fanned Aslan and Karyou beside.

Wind carried overflowing delicious aroma, wafted to Asura’s nose.

Asura instinctively sniffed. Instantly, felt even hungrier.

“Y-You...”

Asura glared trio fiercely. Of course, hard say more glaring Aslan others, or delicious food cart.

“Won’t surrender!”

“Glek~”

Asura instinctively swallowed saliva. Now nearly driven mad by hunger torment.

Hearing swallow sound, Aslan smiled, took piece red pork chopsticks, walked straight to Asura.

“Want eat?”

“Don’t want eat!”

Asura coldly snorted, turned face away, unwilling give Aslan good face.

Asura’s eyes moved slightly, gaze always unconsciously glanced red pork on Aslan’s chopsticks.

But dared not show desire. Just faced Aslan with beautiful cold face, steadfast expression!

But truly that steadfast?

“If don’t want eat, oh well. Eat myself.”

Aslan also didn’t pamper Asura. Without ado, put red pork into own mouth.

“Don’t!”

Asura couldn’t hold shout. However, once words out, regretted.

“Hm?”

Corner Aslan’s mouth curved slightly. Seems this Asura Queen not too hard train?

“Mean, don’t want your pity!”

“Oh? Really?”

Aslan stared Asura curiously.

“But what if use your Ownership Document?”

As Demon Lord, if lose battle, lose Authority, become winner’s.

Asura then, to resist gain chance live, naturally abused Host Master Authority, forcibly dragged Aslan into her Gift Game, become Demon Lord.

Of course Asura still too green compared him. Aslan even didn’t use Another Cosmology. Just Leo Sun Authority granting weapon immunity and Displacement Magic, already beat Asura senseless.

In end, lost, became Aslan’s.

While saying, black Parchment appeared in Aslan’s hand. This Asura’s Ownership Document.

“You seem forgot most important thing.”

Currently, Aslan sneered, shook Parchment in hand.

“Didn’t forget launching Demon Lord Game, if lose, become other’s, right?”

When Aslan said this, smile on face very evil.

“Come, aww~ Open mouth.”

Instantly, Asura’s face reddened. Red from humiliated to madness.

“You dare humiliate me like this!”

Feeling foreign object suddenly stuffed into mouth, Asura suddenly tensed like black cat fur standing. Waist bound by Discipline Chain arched embarrassing bow over Vasavi Shakti.

“I swear... Mmm...”

“Don’t think like this... I... uhuk... will... uhuk... surrender...”

Ownership Document just tool prove ownership. Simultaneously has some command rights in broad scope.

Similar stop actions, or ask other party attack, etc. But effect same Command Spell. If will strong enough, or humiliating commands like ask surrender possessions, ineffective.

So, though holding Asura’s ownership, Aslan couldn’t make refusing one actively open mouth, accept feeding.

So, actually, Asura’s rejection heart not that strong.

“Hm? Why not continue?”

Asura suddenly seemed realized something. Face originally flushed, instantly became embarrassed.

Currently, Asura finally remembered Ownership Document limits.

“Oh? Want me continue?”

Corner Aslan’s mouth showed smile. Effect this potent?

However, to truly succeed training, felt still bit short. Need break Asura’s psychological defense line.

Already felt Indra’s daughter bit slow before. Turns out true.

Felt could trick other party seven times day.

“Continue what? If not you controlling me, how possible react like this!”

Asura teary-eyed, but still said very stubbornly.

“I... I won’t ever surrender...”

“Guk.”

Asura’s stomach sounded again.

Not full yet. Or rather, how possible full? Energy consumption activating Asura Path very large. After big battle with Aslan, body severely energy deficient.

Otherwise, wouldn’t awaken Preta Path because this.

Aslan couldn’t hold laugh.

“Body far more honest than mouth.”

While saying, Aslan placed hand on Asura’s head, stroked like petting obedient puppy.

“Tsk, tsk, eat~”

Aslan poured bit dog food in palm, brought near Asura’s mouth. Simultaneously, other hand waved Ownership Document.

Wanted see how long Asura would deceive self.

Or, continue self-deceive like this also good? Very wanted obedient puppy like this.

Asura silent long time. Finally, hunger instinct overcame reason. Lowered proud head, ate dog food from Aslan’s palm with mouth.

Even after finished eating, still licked Aslan’s palm, felt not satisfied.

(Hmm, controlled. Not my own will, absolutely not my own will!)

(Absolutely not!)

Asura thought while fed and chin scratched by Aslan.

“Good, smart child.”

Seeing Asura so obedient, Aslan finally showed satisfied smile.

Then, leather slave collar with dog tag appeared in hand. Smiled staring Asura.

“Come, wear this collar. You’re my slave.”

While saying, Aslan personally fitted collar on Asura, stroked chin.

“Come, call Master~”

“Master.”

Asura called full humiliation.

Though face showed rejection, clearly body far more honest than expression.

“Asura, smart child.”

Title: Fictional History Attack, Extraordinary Effect

Eastern District Time, 2:30 PM passed.

At Arcadia headquarters.

Uesugi Kenshin wearing brown women’s suit with single ponytail. Prithvi, red-eyed white-haired Earth Goddess, came uninvited, visiting Arcadia again.

Of course, more accurate statement is.

“Heavenly Army, come out and clean this mess!”

Aslan pressed Heavenly Army emergency contact device, called Heavenly Army clean mess, and discuss compensation.

After all, Asura appeared nearly killed him. As Heavenly Army’s princess, asking little compensation not excessive.

Of course, Aslan also knew likelihood he holding Vasavi Shakti long exposed. Because Ouroboros wanted attack Arcadia, surely prepared thoroughly.

Would be strange if could use it.

Even without Asura, surely used other ways limit him.

On second floor, conference room, Aslan brewing tea main seat, complained without lifting head.

“Why Heavenly Army arrive so late?”

“Already pressed button earlier.”

Led in by Leticia, Uesugi glanced Aslan, wanted speak but held back.

“Not offering tea entertain us?”

“That should ask you, right? Created so many time slices called Lostbelts in End of World City. Nearly got lost.”

Prithvi just entered secretly glanced Asura standing behind Aslan, especially collar on neck and dog tag on it.

Prithvi stunned moment, pretended nothing happened, complained to Aslan.

“Heavenly Army... truly pathetic, huh.”

Aslan also said nothing. Anyway, already expected this. Even Heavenly Army’s delay partly his doing.

Couldn’t destroy time slices disrupt ongoing Gift Game, always entered wrong time space.

Impossible not late. Or rather, late only about one hour already result hard efforts.

“Asura, why still standing? Quickly serve tea to these important Heavenly Army figures.”

Asura still rejecting face, but body very obedient. Went serve tea.

Mouth rejects, body honest, proverb not wrong.

Prithvi stared Aslan strange expression, walked Uesugi’s side, secretly exchanged glances with Uesugi.

Now truly didn’t understand what happened.

How world become like this in less than day?

This Asura they knew?

When became so obedient?

“How? Newly captured obedient puppy?”

Aslan noticed hidden communication between Uesugi and Prithvi, said somewhat proudly.

After Asura finished serving tea, Aslan just waved hand, Asura immediately approached.

Let Aslan pet and play with.

Even Aslan shocked by Asura’s fall speed.

Or rather, Asura’s stubbornness level.

As known, one lie needs many lies cover.

And Asura clearly like that.

Because accidentally controlled by hunger, ate food fed by Aslan.

Plus disbelief, or rather dared not admit ate willingly, not controlled by Aslan’s Ownership Document.

Then, could only continue pretend controlled by Ownership Document.

Then Aslan exploited step by step... Actually not step by step, but directly forced.

Plus, food and dog food truly fragrant~ Seems not bad controlled like this.

In end, became like this.

She, Asura, absolutely not accepted feeding willingly. All this controlled!

Story teaches stubbornness not good.

However, in Aslan’s eyes, this Asura Queen bit stupid and cute.

Couldn’t criticize, truly innocent, mouth truly stubborn.

And follow Asura’s self-deception like this, teasing also quite fun.

Right? Obedient puppy.

(Why Asura looks bit enjoying situation?)

Corner Prithvi’s mouth twitched.

(This dog you captured? Clearly captured Asura, now come collect from Heavenly Army.)

(Undisciplined child, father’s fault.)

(Clearly Indra that bastard’s fault, but in end they, subordinates, bear consequences.)

Just Heavenly Army on wrong side now, Prithvi truly couldn’t say anything. Could only follow Aslan’s words.

“Indeed very good dog.”

If in past, found Indra’s daughter trained like this by others, surely very delighted, mock Indra thoroughly.

But now with Indra’s autistic condition, Prithvi dared sprinkle salt on wound, guaranteed before second day, Vasavi Shakti stabbed in bed head.

As if heard Prithvi’s voice, Asura opened characteristic red Ogre eyes, stared Prithvi unblinking.

Prithvi grinned, bitter smile.

“Hey, hey, don’t stare like that. Though Indra’s subordinate, not close with that bastard. Directly under Buddha Faction.”

Paused moment, turned, signaled eyes to Uesugi.

However, currently Uesugi not looking, just said to Asura.

“Surrender, Indra has no face meet you.”

No face, Aslan’s eyebrows jumped. Lowered head, glanced Asura lying on lap, letting play freely.

Sank in contemplation...

“Ssshh~~ Even biological daughter become like this, no face meet Asura?”

“This pathetic god Indra truly pathetic.”

Aslan couldn’t hold mock. Originally still had little good impression of Indra, but now good impression truly gone because Indra.

Asura also silent. Closed eyes slightly sadly, truly lay on Aslan’s lap, locked self.

(Even like this... still won’t meet me?)

Feeling tears wetting pants, Aslan didn’t speak. Just silently stroked Asura’s head.

If Aslan had system called Fallen now, could clearly see Asura’s fall index sharply rise.

Corner mouth still carried mocking smile.

“Perhaps after long acting pathetic god, truly became pathetic?”

Uesugi took teacup, sipped slowly, said calm tone.

“Can only say Asura involved many things. Even including Chinese Pantheon leaving Little Garden after Seven Days War then.”

“By way, don’t try investigate that matter. Involves some...”

Uesugi didn’t continue words here.

Words behind, all present knew.

What else could involve? None other than Full Authority Domains, Two-Digits.

And Uesugi also didn’t continue speak what just said. Just revealing above content already big risk for her.

Raised head, stared Aslan. Calmness on face changed to bright smile.

Raised teacup, toasted toward Aslan.

“Must say, this time you did very well.”

“What’s up? Heavenly Army succeeded catch Ouroboros’s tail?”

Aslan said somewhat surprised.

“More or less. In your Gift Game, caught important Ouroboros member, got evidence backstage sponsor Ouroboros is Christianity.”

Prithvi explained beside, then said smiling.

“And unexpected, they didn’t resist at all, directly revealed Ouroboros secrets.”

“You secretly made big surprise.”

“Now Christianity directly target criticism, object condemnation from many Pantheons and Heavenly Army.”

“Initial estimate, Christianity’s influence in Little Garden may drop about thirty percent.”

“Why only thirty percent?”

Aslan clicked tongue somewhat unhappily. Moreover this only influence in Little Garden.

If influence in Human History drop thirty percent, perhaps happier.

That truly shake Christianity’s foundation.

Aslan and Prithvi very secretly didn’t mention anything about Mithras. After all, one Almighty Domain’s fall too big impact.

“Oh, one very interesting thing. Just don’t know if you knew.”

Prithvi thought moment, said somewhat mysteriously.

“Rumor now someone observing new possible Human History. That possibility says Judas killed Jesus, then pretended be Jesus become Holy Child.”

“Oh? Something like that?”

Aslan said without slightest expression change, but inwardly couldn’t hold praise Canaria.

Worthily Canaria, work efficiency very high.

“Of course. Even that God’s Second Son confirmed this news. Now Holy Child raging in Eden Garden.”

Prithvi said emotionally, then face became bitter.

“Pity, news like this not allowed write in newspaper.”

For gossip goddess like her, what most painful? Of course, get gossip from close friend, but can’t reveal. That’s most painful.

And Holy Child’s movement secret among secrets. Just knowing already biggest risk, let alone reveal.

Prithvi stared Aslan not showing slightest expression change. Inwardly couldn’t help wonder.

(Not his doing? Then whose doing?)

(Who has life-death grudge like this with Christianity? So eager target that Holy Child?)

Fact, actual news Prithvi got was, that Holy Child not raging in Eden Garden, but meditating.

Reason meditating, seems stabilize Spirit Status.

Now even she couldn’t help suspect, is that Holy Child truly Judas who backstabbed Jesus, Judas replaced Jesus become Holy Child.

However, even so, could only praise backstage person acted very cruel, effect extraordinary.

And courage truly big.
