Meanwhile, Loki, who had been left to the side, was fuming.

Seeing Roy and the others laughing and chatting, he unleashed a torrent of flames towards them.

As the god of fire, his flames were no ordinary fire.

Even from a distance, Roy and the others could feel the intense heat.

However, the flames had no effect on Roy.

He simply waved his hand, and the entire area was enveloped in an icy blue aura.

Loki's flames were instantly extinguished.

"What?!" Loki was stunned.

He knew the power of his flames. Anything they touched would be incinerated.

Even other gods were wary of them.

But his flames had been effortlessly extinguished.

The difference in their strength was too vast.

Roy reached out towards Loki.

The moisture in the air condensed around Loki, forming ice.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

In the blink of an eye, Loki was frozen solid.

"That should do it," Roy said with a satisfied nod.

He then handed the divine sword to Claire. "Here, Claire. Use this to kill Loki."

"Is that okay?" Claire asked, confused. Didn't she have to defeat the god herself?

"It should be fine," Roy replied.

Sona had defeated the Heretic God with the Supreme Teigu and the divine sword.

But Roy recalled that most Campiones in history had only managed to kill Heretic Gods by taking advantage of opportunities.

After all, it was nearly impossible for a human to defeat a god head-on.

So, this method should work.

Claire nodded and approached the frozen Loki, the divine sword in her hand.

She took a deep breath and swung the sword.

The blade glowed brightly, and Loki's head was severed effortlessly.

"She did it!" Fianna exclaimed, envious of Claire's accomplishment.

Rinslet, Claire's rival, was also envious and a bit frustrated.

Why was that flat-chested girl the one to become a Campione before her?

She glanced at Roy, a mischievous glint in her eyes.

"Roy, I did it! What do I do now?" Claire asked, returning to Roy's side, unsure of what to do next.

"Just relax and sleep in my arms," Roy said gently, pulling her into an embrace.

Claire blushed, then lost consciousness.

Roy smirked. His plan had worked.

Pandora, who managed the Campione reincarnation ritual, was hostile towards Heretic Gods.

The more Campiones there were, the better it was for her.

So, she would definitely help Claire with the transformation.

"Alright, let's head back," Roy said, carrying Claire.

...

Back at their lodging, news of another Campione's birth spread quickly.

The previous Campione had just been born a few days ago, and the various factions were still reeling from the shock.

Now, there was another one.

It was unbelievable.

When had becoming a Campione become so easy?

Even the other Campiones were surprised by this news.

The leaders of the Southern European Magic Association were also shocked and terrified.

They had just retrieved the Sword King's body a few days ago.

But his body was frozen solid. Despite their best efforts, they couldn't break the ice.

They had to accept that the Sword King was dead.

...

Among the Campiones, there was one who was particularly interested in Roy and his group.

In the distant land of China, a young girl living in seclusion in the mountains had heard about the deaths of Voban and the Sword King.

She was intrigued by Roy and his companions.

And upon learning about the birth of two new Campiones, she was eager to test her strength against them.

This girl was Luo Hao, one of the Campiones.

She had usurped her Authority two hundred years ago and had never been defeated.

She was a master of martial arts, claiming to be the strongest in the world, though this only referred to physical combat.

She was the only Campione who could rival Voban in strength.

She was also an exceptional beauty, with long, black hair and a qipao-like outfit.

She wore a long coat with flowing sleeves, resembling a dress.

If Roy saw her, he would undoubtedly agree that she was as beautiful as any of the girls in his peerage.

However, Luo Hao lived in seclusion in a mountain temple and rarely ventured into the outside world. It was said that those who saw her beauty would be compelled to blind themselves.

...

"Deliver this letter to the newly born Campione," Luo Hao instructed a man outside her temple. "I'll pay them a visit personally later."

Her voice was clear and melodious, but the man trembled, hearing her words.

"Yes, Master!"

This was Lu Yinghua, Luo Hao's student.

He took the letter and left.

...

Meanwhile, Claire had woken up from her unconscious state.

They were in the subspace, and Claire was about to test her newly acquired Authority.

Loki, the god of fire, possessed many Authorities, the most powerful being his control over fire and illusions.

Claire closed her eyes, receiving the information about her new powers.

When she opened her eyes, flames flickered within them.

A fiery aura erupted from her, forcing the others to back away from the intense heat.

"Roy, my first Authority is fire!" Claire exclaimed excitedly.

Loki's flames were incredibly powerful. If Claire used them, she could incinerate an entire nation in an instant.

"Calm down and put out the fire," Roy said with a chuckle.

Claire, seeing how far the others had retreated, realized the intensity of her flames and quickly deactivated them.

"That's terrifying!"

"It's a powerful Authority."

"She's become so much stronger."

"Hmph! I'll let you be ahead for now."

"My skin is getting dry from the heat!"

...

Claire rolled her eyes, hearing their comments.

She already possessed the True Flame, which was just as powerful as Loki's flames.

Now, with the additional fire Authority, her strength was on a completely different level.

"Claire, you said 'first Authority.' Does that mean you have another one?" Roy asked with a grin.

"Yes, I do," Claire replied, puffing out her chest proudly.

"What is it?" Rinslet and the others asked curiously.

"I'll show you." Claire turned to Rinslet with a mischievous glint in her eyes.

Rinslet was confused, but then she suddenly blurted out embarrassing words.

"My Fenrir is just a mutt. Claire's fire cat is the best. When I take a bath, The thing I love the most with Roy is..."

"...."

...

"Onee-sama, what are you saying?!" Mirelle exclaimed, her face flushed.

"You must be controlling her!" Judia added, glaring at Claire.

"My lady is amazing! She's saying such shocking things! She'll definitely fight Claire-sama when she wakes up!" Carol cried, though Roy suspected she was secretly enjoying the chaos.

The other girls also blushed at Rinslet's words.

"Eh? What happened?" Rinslet suddenly woke up, confused.

Seeing everyone's flushed faces and knowing stares, she quickly realized what she had said.

She blushed furiously and glared at Claire.

"Claire, I'll kill you!" she shouted, summoning her Ice Bow and firing several Ice Shots.

Claire, however, didn't dodge. She stood still, seemingly ready to take the hits.

Rinslet's heart skipped a beat. It was too late to stop the attack.

She hoped Roy would block them.

But Roy didn't move. He simply watched with amusement.

Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!

The ice arrows struck Claire, but to Rinslet's surprise, they had no effect.

Claire had blocked them with her body.

"Heehee, Rinslet, don't forget that as a Campione, attacks below Ultimate-class can't harm me anymore," Claire taunted with a smug grin.

Rinslet finally remembered.

She had been too worried and had forgotten about Claire's newfound power.

But this only fueled her anger.

"Don't worry, Rinslet. I'll punish Claire," Roy said, taking her hand and comforting her.

Rinslet calmed down slightly.

"But I'll also fulfill your request, Rinslet," Roy whispered in her ear.

Rinslet blushed, her ears turning crimson.

"Ahem, Claire, tell us about your Authority. You used your second Authority on Rinslet just now, right?" Roy asked, turning to Claire.
