Luo Hao had to admit that Roy was indeed stronger than her. But she wouldn't give up so easily.

"Haa!" she shouted, unleashing her power.

A horrifying shockwave erupted, tearing through the ground and shaking the very air.

She had activated the—[Dragon's Voice].

This was an [Authority] she had usurped from the Hindu Goddess Gayatri.

The shockwave, accompanied by a resonating sound, possessed incredible destructive power, comparable to a powerful typhoon at its peak.

"Is that a Dragon's Roar?" Roy commented with amusement.

The scene resembled the effects of the Dragon's Roar technique from various anime, just on a much larger scale.

Roy casually flipped the two Vajrapani aside, then gently blew at the incoming shockwave.

The horrifying attack dissipated into nothingness as if it had never existed.

Luo Hao was stunned.

"H-How—"

Her [Authority] had no effect on him. This realization was a blow to her pride.

"It's simple. I'm stronger than you," Roy explained with a smile, walking towards her.

Luo Hao's eyes lit up. It was true.

"Can you really make me stronger?" she asked, her gaze filled with longing.

"Of course," Roy replied confidently.

"Then—I agree to become your wife," Luo Hao declared, her cheeks slightly flushed.

Roy smiled in triumph.

He didn't waste any time and performed the Devil transformation ritual on her.

As Luo Hao became a Devil, an even more powerful aura erupted from her.

She had reached the Peak of Super Devil, just a step away from Planetary-level.

"Thank you, Roy," Luo Hao said gratefully, feeling the power surge within her.

"You're welcome. Come on, let's go out. I'll introduce you to Rias and the others," Roy said, leading her out of the subspace.

...

The girls were waiting for them in the living room.

"How did it go?" Rias asked, concerned.

They had been a bit worried when Roy took Luo Hao into the subspace.

"Haha, don't worry. Luo Hao is my Queen now," Roy announced, introducing her to the others.

"Just call me 'Cuilian', Roy," Luo Hao said.

Her real name, Cuilian, was only used by those closest to her.

Others addressed her as "Master Luo Hao" or "Martial Arts King."

"No problem, Cuilian," Roy replied with a grin.

Luo Hao blushed.

...

After becoming Roy's servant, Luo Hao returned to her home to settle some matters.

As a leader, she had many responsibilities. She had to pass on her position to her student, Lu Yinghua.

After Luo Hao left, Pandora suddenly spoke up.

"Pandora, what's wrong?" Roy asked, seeing her anxious expression.

"You can't summon any more Heretic Gods," she declared.

The girls exchanged surprised glances.

They were all waiting to become Campiones.

Why couldn't they summon more gods?

"Why not?" Roy asked, voicing their question.

"Because there's a special existence among the Heretic Gods. He's called the 'Last King,' the strongest 'steel'," Pandora explained.

"He's the nemesis of all Campiones. He possesses the immortality of a steel hero. Even if he's defeated, he'll simply transform into a divine sword."

"And most importantly, his power increases with the number of Campiones."

The girls gasped.

"The more Campiones there are, the stronger he becomes? Then even Roy might not be a match for him?"

"This powerful being—he's invincible!"

"Is his power the sum of all Campiones?"

"What do we do now?"

...

Roy, however, wasn't worried.

The Last King's power was indeed the sum of all Campiones.

But Roy and his group weren't solely reliant on the power of Campiones.

Roy himself was already at Planetary-level.

The Last King's power was more accurately the sum of all slain Heretic Gods.

And the difference between a Super Devil and a Planetary-level Being was huge!

Even a hundred Peak-level Super Devils couldn't defeat a single one.

Roy wasn't afraid.

"Don't worry, everyone. We'll continue summoning Heretic Gods," he reassured them with a smile.

He then explained the situation.

The girls were relieved.

Pandora was also surprised. The problem that had worried her was so easily resolved. This man was truly incredible.

...

Their plan remained unchanged. They would continue summoning a Heretic God every week.

Meanwhile, the Bronze Black Cross and the Copper Black Cross were also searching for Heretic Gods.

A month later, Diana and Paolo reported their findings.

"Maou-sama, we've found a Heretic God in Japan," Diana reported respectfully.

"Oh?"

Roy suddenly remembered that there were indeed many Heretic Gods in Japan.

And most importantly, the Eastern Heretic God, the Monkey King, was imprisoned by the Japanese gods.

The Monkey King was Sun Wukong.

Roy couldn't tolerate that. It was time to deal with those Japanese gods.

"According to our information, one of the elders of the History Compilation Committee is a Heretic God," Diana continued.

"This god is called 'The Old One'. He's currently residing in the Netherworld."

Roy was surprised. He hadn't expected them to uncover such information.

"Good. He's our next target," Roy declared.

He gathered the girls and informed them of his decision.

"It's time for Yuri to visit her family," Sona said to Yuri Mariya.

Yuri was a member of the History Compilation Committee and had a younger sister, Hikari, in Japan.

She missed her family.

Yuri was excited.

They packed their belongings and prepared to depart.

Fianna and the others were still busy preparing for the next summoning ritual, so they didn't come this time.

...

At a small private airport in the Kanto region of Japan, a luxurious jet landed smoothly.

Roy hadn't used teleportation this time. He wanted to experience a more traditional journey, so he had Diana arrange their travel.

The cabin door opened, and Roy and the girls disembarked.

Diana had already arranged for someone to pick them up.

But just as they were about to leave, a middle-aged man in a suit approached them with a group of people.

"Greetings, Campione-sama. I am Touma Amakasu. Welcome to our country," the man said.

Yuri looked at him with fear.

This was the man who had handed her over to Voban.

If not for Roy and the others, she might not have survived.

"Welcome?" Roy scoffed. "I don't see any joy on your face. In fact, you seem quite terrified. Well, you should be. Enjoy your last few days."

He then ignored the man and left with the girls.

Yuri was his servant now. It was only natural for him to eliminate the History Compilation Committee.

And they had even imprisoned Sun Wukong. Roy wouldn't hesitate to destroy them.

He didn't care if Japan was destroyed in the process.

Amakasu's face paled.

Roy's words were practically a declaration of war. But he still held onto a sliver of hope.

And that hope was their elder, the Heretic God, "The Old One."

He hurried back to report the situation.

...

Roy and the girls, meanwhile, enjoyed their time in Japan.

After all, once the battle began, this place would be destroyed.

They spent a day sightseeing with Yuri as their guide.

That night, they visited Yuri's home.

Roy met Yuri's younger sister, Hikari Mariya.

Hikari was a trainee shrine maiden with short brown hair and the ability to dispel magic and curses.

She had a pure and innocent personality.

"Greetings, Campione-sama. I am Hikari Mariya. Pleased to meet you," she introduced herself after reuniting with her sister.

"Just call me Roy-onii-chan, Hikari," Roy replied with a smile.

"R-Roy-onii-chan?" Hikari blushed.

"Yes. Here's a welcome gift." Roy handed her a small teddy bear-shaped Teigu.

"This is...?" Hikari looked at the palm-sized teddy bear with curiosity and delight.

"Thank the Maou-sama, Hikari," Yuri urged.

She recognized the object. Roy had also given her, Liliana, and Erica similar gifts when they first met.

They had initially thought they were just toys, but these Teigu were as powerful as some high-level magic items.

"Thank you, Roy-onii-chan!" Although she didn't know what the teddy bear did, Hikari bowed gratefully, following her sister's lead.

"It's just a small toy," Roy said with a wave of his hand.

He was planning to cause some chaos here, so he had to ensure Hikari's safety as well.

He left that task to Sona.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Hikari rushed to answer it.
