Clanging sounds echoed through the clearing.
Mariya Yuri, acting as support, couldn't help, and Lucretia, being drunk, was equally unhelpful. Only Erica and Liliana were in action.
Erica wielded her sword, Heart of the Lion, and Liliana held The Master, as both continuously slashed at the barrier before them.
Inside the barrier.
Abel had his eyes closed, his head resting on Athena's lap. Athena caressed his face, then gave a provocative look towards the people outside.
Erica and Liliana were furious. Wasn't this a form of NTR?
"Athena! Give our King back to us!"
With that, their slashing speed increased.
Abel, returning from the Netherworld was woken by the noise, and slowly opened his eyes.
Then he grumbled, "So noisy."
After waking up, he realized he was resting on Athena's lap pillow.
Athena's lips curved slightly as she saw Abel awaken. "Master is awake, isn't he?"
"Mm."
Abel nodded, then rubbed his brow.
He recalled the events in the Netherworld, he had never met someone so talkative. Pandora was really bored.
Erica and Liliana, outside the barrier, saw Abel awaken and relaxed, then shouted,
"King! Are you alright?"
Erica's voice?
Hearing the familiar voice, Abel looked up to see Erica, Liliana, and Mariya Yuri standing outside, looking worried. Only then did he realize that he and Athena were inside a barrier and quickly stood up.
Why did he feel like he was caught sneaking a snack?
Athena also stood up, then with a wave of her hand, the barrier that enveloped her and Abel dissipated.
As the barrier vanished, Erica and Liliana stood with their swords drawn, blocking Athena's path.
Athena looked at them, a smile on her lips. "These knights are quite loyal."
Athena praised them, but then her words shifted. "However, to dare draw your weapons before a Goddess, I must say, your courage is commendable."
As her words fell, Athena appeared behind them.
Erica and Liliana's faces stiffened, their bodies unable to move. Feeling Athena's hand roam over them, their faces flushed.
"You... what do you want to do!?"
"Of course, I'm checking them out for my Master."
Athena said, licking their faces, her fingers like sharp blades, smoothly cutting through their clothes.
The two completely forgot what Athena had just called Abel, they only knew that they were about to be molested by a Heretic God.
Feeling the hand reaching inside their clothes, both women's faces turned crimson.
Teary-eyed, they looked towards Abel. He stood by, eyes wide.
With faces full of shame and indignation, they shouted at Abel, "King... King, save us!"
Hearing their shouts, Abel, who was watching the show, felt a bit regretful that he couldn't watch the exciting scene anymore.
He called out to Athena, "Athena, that's enough, let them go."
"What a pity."
Hearing Abel's words, Athena whispered into their ears, then released them.
Then she came to Abel's side.
Erica and Liliana frantically tidied their clothes, their faces flushed with shame and a hint of grievance, glaring at Athena.
At this moment, the inconspicuous Mariya Yuri walked over. "King, are you alright?"
Abel smiled. "Thank you for your concern, everything is fine. Let's go, everyone."
Abel activated the teleportation array, preparing to go home.
To be honest, he had entered the Golden Domain from home, but now he had no idea where it had taken him.
Hearing Abel's words, Liliana and Erica quickly came to his side.
Mariya Yuri looked at the people before her. She wanted to say something but stopped. She wasn't a vassal of the King yet, nor had she received the King's approval.
Abel noticed Mariya Yuri standing there unresponsive and called out to her, "Yuri, why are you standing there?"
Hearing Abel call her, Mariya Yuri paused, then with a smile, she called out, "Alright, King."
At the same time, she felt a little joy inside. Had the King acknowledged her as a vassal?
Soon, there was a flash of golden light, and everyone disappeared.
The drunk Lucretia woke up, looking confused at the deserted area.
...
Abel's home.
Rias was a little annoyed to see another woman, but her mood improved when she looked at Sona. After all, if anyone should be angry, it was Sona.
Sona looked at Athena for a moment, then looked at Abel. "Abel, introduce her."
Abel smiled and said, "This is the Heretic God Athena, and now she is my servant."
Rias, Sona, and the others nodded.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes widened.
"What!"
They looked at Athena in disbelief, then at Abel, their gaze going back and forth between the two.
What did they just hear?
A God became Abel's servant!?
"Abel, you're not joking, are you!?"
"Of course not."
Under everyone's shocked gazes, Athena stood up. "I am the Heretic God Athena, and from today onwards, I shall be my Master's servant."
Hearing Athena's words, everyone fell silent.
Are you serious?
Athena, where is your dignity as a God!?
Just as everyone was still immersed in the shock of Athena becoming Abel's servant, a voice broke the silence.
Akeno said, "Ara ara. I never thought I'd see a Heretic God become someone's servant one day, how interesting."
Her words significantly eased the previously tense atmosphere.
Rias came back to her senses, she looked at Abel and teased, "Abel, you're really getting more and more amazing, you can even subdue a God."
Sona calmly said, "Since that's the case, we are all companions now, please take care of us."
Athena bowed slightly. "Naturally so."
And so, everyone accepted the fact that the Heretic God Athena had become Abel's servant.
