Athena summoned a bow and arrow, firing a powerful energy arrow towards Roy.

"Athena, are you out of tricks already? You should know that the same move won't work on me twice—" Roy taunted, effortlessly blocking the arrow with his hand.

Although the arrow was much stronger than before, it still posed no threat to him.

"Damn it!" Athena's arrogance faltered. She felt a sense of helplessness.

No matter how strong she became, she was still like an infant in front of Roy.

She continued firing arrows, and Roy continued blocking them with ease.

"If you have no other tricks, then it's my turn," Roy declared.

Athena's expression turned serious. She braced herself for his attack.

But Roy simply tossed a small ball of magic power towards her.

Athena was momentarily stunned by the seemingly insignificant attack.

But then she sensed the horrifying power contained within it and her face paled.

"Aegis Shield!"

She summoned the Aegis Shield to protect herself.

BOOM!!!

The small ball of magic power exploded upon contact with the shield, unleashing a devastating shockwave.

A mushroom cloud erupted, shaking the entire subspace.

When the dust settled, a massive crater marked the spot where Athena had been standing.

She had reverted to her loli form, her clothes tattered, lying unconscious at the bottom of the crater.

The Gorgoneion lay nearby.

Roy walked over to her and gently woke her up.

Athena sat up, her eyes filled with confusion.

"Did I lose?" she asked.

"Yes, you did. So, from now on, you'll be my obedient servant," Roy replied with a smile, patting her head.

Athena looked at him, about to agree.

But then, the Gorgoneion emitted a dark light.

Another Athena, enveloped in a black aura, appeared beside them.

"You're useless, Athena! Are you giving up?" the black-clad Athena sneered, glaring at her counterpart.

"You're—Metis?" Athena exclaimed in surprise.

Roy instantly understood what was happening.

The Heretic God Athena was a—Trinity Goddess, consisting of Athena, Metis, and Medusa.

And this new arrival was Metis, who had separated from Athena.

Before—Athena had been the dominant personality.

But after her defeat, the Gorgoneion, which represented Metis, had been knocked loose.

And Metis—unwilling to accept defeat, had manifested.

"Athena, give me your power! Let me defeat this Campione!" Metis urged, extending her hand towards Athena.

If Metis absorbed Athena's power, she could become the dominant personality and control the Trinity Goddess.

"Even if you become the Trinity Goddess—your power will remain the same. What's the point?" Roy interjected.

It didn't matter who was in control. Their combined power was limited.

No matter who was dominant, they were still at the Planetary-level. They couldn't become any stronger.

Metis glared at Roy.

"I'm not like that useless girl. I can defeat you!" she declared.

"I wouldn't get your hopes up. I never considered you a threat to begin with," Roy replied calmly.

Metis was furious. Just as she was about to persuade Athena to give her her power, Roy suddenly appeared behind her and lifted her into the air.

"What are you doing? Put me down!" Metis yelled, struggling to break free.

But she couldn't escape his grasp.

"Naughty girls need to be punished, hehehe!" Roy chuckled.

He spanked Metis.

"Aah! You disgusting bastard! I'll kill you!" Metis shrieked, her face flushed with anger and embarrassment.

But Roy ignored her protests and continued spanking her.

After a while, Metis finally calmed down.

Roy carried her over to Athena. "Athena, it's time to fulfill our agreement," he said with a smile.

Athena lowered her head, a hint of amusement in her eyes.

"I—accept."

"Good. And Metis, you agree too, right?" Roy asked, looking at the pouting girl in his arms.

"Eh?" Metis was surprised. She had been defeated. Shouldn't she be reabsorbed by Athena?

Athena also looked at Roy with confusion.

"I think this is fine. We found the Gorgoneion. It doesn't matter if you merge back together or not," Roy said with a shrug.

He wouldn't let them merge. He preferred Athena as a loli.

And this way, he had another adorable loli, Metis.

What could be better?

Roy even considered separating Medusa as well.

That would be triple the fun.

But he decided against it. Two was enough.

...

Roy then formed contracts with Athena and Metis.

Metis was reluctant, but under Roy's threat to let Athena reabsorb her, she agreed to the Devil transformation.

Roy, in a good mood, took the two lolis out for a feast.

He then brought them back to the Bronze Black Cross headquarters.

When Roy appeared in the main hall with Athena and Metis, the girls were already waiting for him.

"Welcome back, Roy!"

"You're finally back!"

"Who are these adorable little girls?"

"They're Heretic Gods, but they've become your servants, right?"

...

The girls chattered excitedly.

Akeno prepared tea for Roy.

Roy took a sip of tea, then introduced the two lolis. "This is Athena, and this is Metis. They're easy to tell apart."

Although Athena and Metis looked identical, their auras were different.

"They're so cute!" Lucoa exclaimed, hugging Metis tightly.

"Let me go, you busty woman!" Metis struggled to push Lucoa away, but despite using all her strength, she couldn't budge her.

She was shocked.

Lucoa was also a Planetary-level.

Athena and Metis were originally at the peak of Super Devil level. After the Devil transformation, they had broken through to the Planetary-level.

Yet, even with their combined strength, they couldn't push Lucoa away.

Roy knew that Metis was still scheming, but with Saeko, and the other Planetary-level Devils around, she wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.

...

Roy returned to his leisurely life.

Every week, they summoned a Heretic God and killed it.

Within a year, everyone in Roy's group had become a Campione.

Although their strengths varied, the summoning continued. Roy's goal was for everyone to reach Maou level and above.

But as they killed more and more Heretic Gods, Pandora grew increasingly worried.

She had a feeling that the Last King, Rama, the nemesis of Campiones, was about to appear.

...

One day, Fianna and the others performed the summoning ritual as usual.

Having become Campiones themselves, the ritual was much easier now.

They quickly summoned a Heretic God, and Akame swiftly killed it.

Akame gained another Authority, her strength reaching the high-level of Super Devil.

They were about to wrap things up and return to the headquarters when a rift suddenly appeared in the subspace.

A figure emerged from the rift.

It was a beautiful teenage girl with honey-colored hair and an angelic face.

She wore a simple white dress and a slightly tattered cloak that reached her boots.

Despite her wanderer-like attire, her beauty was undeniable.

She had a slender figure with surprisingly ample curves.

The girls stared at the sudden arrival in shock.

"Who are you?" Akame asked cautiously, gripping her Teigu, Murasame.

"You're... Lancelot du Lac?" Pandora asked, seemingly recognizing the girl.

"Indeed. I am the War God, Lancelot du Lac," the girl replied in a dignified voice.

Roy was also surprised. He hadn't expected Lancelot du Lac to appear here.

...

"Lancelot du Lac, what is your purpose here?" Roy asked curiously.

"Campione, you have slain too many gods. I am here to eliminate you," Lancelot declared, pointing her spear at Roy.

"Hmph! If you want to touch Roy, you'll have to go through us first!" Rias retorted, stepping forward.

"Do you need my help?" Metis asked with a smug grin.

"No need. You're not her opponent. I'll handle this," Roy replied, patting Metis's head.

He could tell that Lancelot du Lac was at the early stage of the Planetary-level.

But that wasn't the main concern. The real threat was the Divine Spear in her hand. If it awakened, it could absorb the power of all the slain Heretic Gods.

That would be truly horrifying.
