Poseidon was the Greek God of the Sea, one of the Twelve Olympians.

When he rode his chariot across the sea, the waves would calm, and dolphins would follow him.

That's why Erica, seeing the dolphin, was certain that the Heretic God was Poseidon.

"How do we lure him out?" Rias wondered.

"I don't think we need to worry about that," Roy said, pointing towards a disturbance in the ocean.

A massive whirlpool was forming, and a giant figure emerged from its depths.

He wielded a trident and rode a golden chariot.

It was Poseidon.

"Wretched Dragons, you dare capture my divine beast? Do you know your crime?!" Poseidon's voice boomed across the sea.

"Oh, this fish is yours? Here you go then!" Ilulu grinned mischievously and tossed the giant dolphin towards Poseidon.

"Damn you, Dragon! You killed my divine beast!" Poseidon roared, slashing at the dolphin with his trident.

The dolphin was cleaved in two.

Even Poseidon had to be cautious when facing a creature thrown with Ilulu's strength.

"Hey, you're the one who killed it. It's none of my business," Ilulu retorted with a sly grin.

"Hahaha!" Poseidon's anger turned into a chilling laughter.

He unleashed his Divine Power, shaking the ocean and the sky.

Tsunamis raged across the sea, and underwater volcanoes erupted.

It was a scene of apocalyptic destruction.

In an instant, Poseidon caused disasters all over the world.

Fortunately, Roy reacted quickly, transporting everyone to the subspace before the world could be destroyed.

"Who are you trying to scare, old man?" Ilulu scoffed, looking at Poseidon with disdain.

She then unleashed her Dragon Breath, a torrent of flames shooting towards Poseidon.

"Hmph! Is that all the power you Dragons possess?" Poseidon sneered, raising his trident.

Dozens of water pillars erupted from the sea, blocking Ilulu's flames.

The flames were extinguished by the water.

"Try this then!" Ilulu, not giving up, unleashed another, more concentrated blast of flames.

This time, it pierced through the water pillars and struck Poseidon.

A cloud of steam filled the air.

...

"Did we win?" Asia asked with a worried frown.

"No, it can't be that easy," Rias replied, shaking her head.

They stared at the spot where Poseidon had been hit.

A wave of heat dispersed the steam, and Ilulu grinned. "Don't play dead, old man. I know you're not finished yet."

Suddenly, a waterspout erupted from the sea, spiraling towards the sky.

Poseidon had finally retaliated.

Ilulu was caught off guard and swept up into the waterspout.

But she quickly tore through it and emerged, unleashing another barrage of flames.

Although Poseidon was one of the Twelve Olympians, he wasn't at the Planetary level.

...

Roy didn't intend to intervene in this fight.

He was considering who should inherit Poseidon's Authority.

Poseidon had many Authorities: the ocean, tsunamis, earthquakes, storms, all sea creatures, horses, and more.

Most of his Authorities were related to water.

Roy immediately thought of Serafall, who was proficient in water magic.

Of course, Sona was also skilled in water magic.

He looked at Sona and Serafall. If he let them choose, they would probably just offer the opportunity to each other.

So, Roy made the decision for them.

"Serafall, you can be the next Campione."

The girls had no objections.

Serafall squealed with delight and jumped into Roy's arms.

"Roy-kun, you're the best!"

Roy chuckled, holding her close. "Of course. But you have to reward me properly tonight. Preferably in a magical girl cosplay."

Serafall blushed but nodded.

...

Meanwhile, the battle between Ilulu and Poseidon was intensifying.

Although Poseidon had many Authorities, they couldn't defeat Ilulu.

But their strength was roughly equal, so Ilulu couldn't defeat him easily either.

"Roy, should I join in?" Tohru asked, seeing their stalemate.

"Well, you could..."

"Let me go!" Serafall interrupted. "Although I'm not as strong as him, with Ilulu's help, we should be able to defeat Poseidon."

Roy considered her request. "Alright, Serafall-san, you can provide support. Take this." He handed her the divine sword.

...

With this sword, Serafall would have a chance to kill Poseidon.

Otherwise, she might not even be able to injure him.

After all, there was a significant difference in their power levels.

Serafall took the sword, then kissed Roy on the cheek. "Thank you, Roy-kun," she said with a smile.

She then joined the battle.

With their combined efforts, Poseidon was finally slain by Serafall.

"Roy-kun, I did it!" Serafall cheered, hugging Roy tightly.

Roy patted her head, then turned to Pandora.

"Pandora, it's your turn."

"Honestly, I told you to call me Mom!" Pandora grumbled, munching on snacks.

'Pandora's love for food reminds me of Kurome,' Roy thought.

Pandora approached Serafall. "Get off him! How am I supposed to perform the ritual like this?" she demanded.

"Pandora, aren't you going back to the border between life and death?" Roy asked, surprised.

"Why would I go back? Are you tired of me already?" Pandora retorted.

"Of course not. But can you perform the ritual here?"

"Of course I can!" Pandora nodded matter-of-factly.

She was the one who managed the Campione transformation ritual. She could perform it anywhere.

Roy was speechless.

Pandora then began the ritual.

Diana watched in disbelief.

The powerful Heretic God, Poseidon, had been defeated so easily.

And a new Campione was born right before her eyes. She couldn't believe it.

...

They waited a while for the ritual to be completed.

"How do you feel? What Authority did you get?" Sona asked.

The other girls were also curious.

"I got the Authorities of the Ocean, Tsunami, and Storms," Serafall explained, having received the information about her new powers.

Roy clapped his hands in delight. Those were perfect for her.

'Did Pandora help her with that?' he wondered.

But that was unlikely. The Authorities one received from the ritual were completely random.

Regardless, Serafall was now a Campione, her strength boosted to the Super Devil.

She was now one of the strongest among them.

...

A few days later, Fianna and the others prepared to summon another Heretic God.

This time, it was Frigg, the queen of the gods and Odin's wife in Norse mythology.

She was also the goddess of the sky and earth, marriage, and family.

As Roy's "first wife," Rias naturally received Frigg's Authority.

They continued summoning Heretic Gods every week, giving Fianna, Claire, and the others time to rest in between.

During their breaks, Roy took the girls out to explore and have fun.

One day, Liliana approached Roy, saying that someone wanted to see him.

Many faction leaders had requested an audience with Roy, but he had refused them all.

He didn't have time for their formalities.

However, since it was Liliana's request, he decided to meet with this person.

...

Liliana soon brought a young man before Roy.

"Greetings, Campione-sama. I am Lu Yinghua, a student of the Martial Arts King Luo Hao," the young man said, bowing respectfully.

'So it's him,' Roy thought.

He knew about Lu Yinghua. He was a popular young man with decent skills.

However having been trained by Luo Hao since childhood, he had developed a misogynistic and twisted personality.

He seemed friendly towards girls, but he harbored a deep resentment towards them, especially those who were beautiful and capable.

Roy noticed that Lu Yinghua had only glanced at Shinobu and the others once, then completely ignored them.

"Student of Luo Hao, what brings you here?" Roy asked after taking a sip of his tea.

He was quite interested in Luo Hao.

He hadn't expected her to approach him first.

"My master has entrusted me with this letter for you, Campione-sama," Lu Yinghua said, presenting a letter to Roy.

Roy opened the letter. It was an invitation from Luo Hao.

She expressed her desire to meet with Roy and challenge him to a martial arts duel.

A duel was fine. But Roy suspected that wasn't her only motive.

"I accept her invitation. You can return to your master now," Roy said, setting the letter aside and dismissing Lu Yinghua with a wave of his hand.

"Yes, Campione-sama. I'll inform my master immediately," Lu Yinghua replied, bowing respectfully before leaving.
