Just as Abel accepted Erica's allegiance, news of the seventh Godslayer's birth quickly spread, as did the news that the seventh Godslayer was a devil.
Many forces find this unbelievable. After all, there was no precedent for a devil becoming a Godslayer. Now, such a case had actually appeared.
One can imagine what the weaker Heretic Gods would encounter in the future.
However, even so, those non-humans could not obtain the authority of a Heretic God. After all, not everyone was like Abel, he was a transmigrator.
As for future matters, they could be discussed in the future. The hunting of Heretic Gods had nothing to do with him. If anyone wanted to cause trouble, Abel was ready to oblige.
Moreover, he had three Satans backing him, not to mention that he himself was now a Campione.
When they learned that a devil had become the seventh Godslayer, some initially panicked, but they quickly accepted the setting that the seventh Godslayer was a devil. Similarly, they only hoped that this new King would be a King who loved his people.
What was a Godslayer?
It was a person who killed a Heretic God and obtained its authority.
Whenever a Heretic God was born from myth, the people in that area would be in dire straits, so whether intentionally or unintentionally slaying a god, it was considered protecting the people.
...
At this moment, inside Erica's small villa.
Abel sat on the sofa in the living room, closing his eyes to rest, but he was actually checking Verethragna's Ten Incarnations.
These incarnations were quite useful, such as Gale. As long as someone called him, he could instantly appear by the caller's side if he wished. No matter how far, even to other worlds, he could arrive instantly.
Youth could grant divine protection to his important people. The true value of this authority was that it could greatly enhance the power of those he bestowed it upon.
It had to be said that the method of granting Divine Protection was quite special: mouth to mouth.
Ram allowed him to be resurrected from near-death injuries.
While Abel was checking his skills, Erica was brewing black tea for him. This should have been done by a maid, but Erica insisted on personally brewing tea for her King.
After a while, Erica brought up the brewed tea on a tray. Then she picked up the teapot and respectfully poured a cup for Abel.
"My King, my humble abode is simple, please do not mind it."
Abel, who was deep in thought, was pulled back. "It's nothing, I don't care about these things."
After speaking, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea. The taste was good, and the tea leaves were of excellent quality. However, compared to the black tea brewed by Akeno, Erica's black tea was still a little lacking. But it was fine, after all, each had its own characteristics and flavor. Then Abel placed the teacup on the table.
Seeing that Abel only took one sip, Erica was a little worried that she hadn't done well. She cautiously asked, "My King, does this tea not suit your taste?"
Abel waved his hand. "The tea is good. Erica, you did very well."
Erica's mood visibly improved at a rapid pace.
Abel slowly savored his black tea. He had the idea of expanding his Peerage.
Since Erica had already sworn allegiance, then joining his Peerage should be no problem, right?
Thinking of this, Abel put down his teacup. Looking at Erica, who was still cheerful, he spoke up, "Erica."
Hearing Abel call her name, Erica respectfully knelt on one knee before him. "My King."
Looking at Erica before him, Abel got straight to the point, "I intend for you to join my Peerage, I wonder if you are willing?"
Listening to Abel's words, a glimmer of light flashed in Erica's eyes. "My King. I am willing."
Erica's unhesitating answer surprised Abel a little. But it also made sense. After all, once Erica swore allegiance, she became his possession. Similarly, Erica had already prepared herself to serve the new King.
Moreover, with Abel's current status, as long as he announced his intention to choose Peerage members, many people would be willing.
This was what a King should enjoy.
Abel looked at Erica, his lips curving slightly upward. Then he raised his hand, and a white knight chess piece appeared before him.
Looking at the white piece before her.
Erica was a little curious. She had only heard about reincarnation into a devil's Peerage but had never witnessed it firsthand.
"My King, what should I do?" Erica looked at the chess piece and then asked respectfully.
Abel played with the chess piece in his hand and said with a smile, "It's very simple, just integrate it into your body."
Looking at the chess piece, Erica nodded.
"Come, my King."
"Alright, take off your clothes."
As Abel's words fell, Erica's face visibly turned red. Even with the preparation to serve, she was still a little shy. After all, she was just an eighteen-year-old girl.
Abel looked at the shy Erica and said with a smile, "There's no need to be shy, you only need to expose your chest."
Erica hesitated for a moment, slowly unbuttoning a few buttons of her top, revealing her chest. She tightly closed her eyes, her face full of shyness.
The knight piece in Abel's hand emitted a gentle glow, and he placed the piece on Erica's chest.
Erica felt a chill. Immediately after, she felt something enter her body.
Then the reincarnation ritual began.
Erica felt a warm current surge into her body, and her body seemed to be enveloped by a mysterious power.
[Congratulations, Host, you have received a Peerage Pack.]
Listening to the system's prompt, Abel nodded.
Then he drank his black tea, quietly watching Erica's transformation.
Time passed bit by bit.
As the light gradually dissipated, Erica slowly opened her eyes, and at the same time, a pair of devil wings grew behind her.
"Are these devil wings?"
Erica felt the wings behind her and the power within her body.
