I am a god-slayer, not your hero.

The power [White Knight's Assault] summons Lancelot as a subordinate god, allowing him to fight at full power for about ten minutes.

[This Body as a Contract] exploited a bug, using the power of the contract to force two goddesses to swear allegiance, turning them into his subordinate gods.

Luo Hao frowned slightly: "What is a BUG?"

Mingxian: "It's a loophole in the rules."

Luo Hao nodded slightly and continued, "According to what you said, it wasn't just one loophole that was exploited, but two."

"There's another bug?"

The sound of the stringed instrument gave me a ghostly feeling.

Why is it that the power usurped from the gods of law, justice, and contracts is all about exploiting loopholes in the rules?

Luo Hao: "God cannot break his own vows, otherwise he will tarnish the sublimity of the soul and shake the foundation of being a god."

This is yet another bug.

【This Body as a Contract】will be automatically activated when the Godslayer defeats the Goddess and both parties reach an agreement, forcibly signing a contract with the Goddess.

This is a characteristic similar to the myth of the "God of Steel".

The defeated, weakened, and forced goddess had no choice but to sign a "contract of fate."

They swore allegiance to Mingxian and fought for him.

In return, Mingxian must pay a reward.

The problem lies in the preceding "oath of allegiance." When a god swears an oath of allegiance to a god-killer, it becomes the god-killer's power, making him his subordinate god.

However, since it wasn't the goddess who voluntarily pledged allegiance, she could break the "contract of fate."

Once the "contract of fate" is torn up, the matter of loyalty ceases to exist.

The goddess can then shed her subservient status to the gods and regain her freedom.

This is the second bug.

Gods will not break their vows unless absolutely necessary, even if the vow is detrimental to them.

Therefore, Aphrodite and Nemesis did not want to break the "contract of fate".

Mingxian nodded slightly and pressed on, "And what's the purpose of choosing a new name?"

“The names of the gods are very important; they are the fulcrum of their existence.” Luo Hao didn’t keep anyone in suspense. “As subordinate gods of the official, once they lose their original names, they will be unable to use their powers on their own initiative. They can only use their powers with the official’s consent.”

Mingxian was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid I can't just order them to use their powers at will."

"Why?"

"【This body as a contract】is fair; I must pay the price."

Upon hearing this, Aphrodite and Nemesis instantly shone with brilliance.

That's right!

Such stringent power would be too overpowered if its coercive force were only directed at the contractor!

As the master, Mingxian will also be forced to pay a price.

Once the battle is over, Mingxian can be forced to pay an unbearable price, at which point he will have no choice but to break the "Fate Pact".

The "This Body as a Contract" can only be used once on one person.

Luo Hao simply said it.

"What price?"

"let me see."

Mingxian pulled out a contract that looked like parchment from the halo behind his head, slowly unfolded it, and looked at Aphrodite at the same time.

"..."

Why did you suddenly stop talking?

Mingxian asked doubtfully, "Lord Cupid, do you still have purity?"

"What do you mean?" Aphrodite glared at him angrily.

Mingxian said speechlessly, "The price I have to pay for sending you into battle is a 'date,' which means I have to go on a date with you..."

"Who, who wants to go on a date with you?" Aphrodite quickly retorted, "A lowly mortal! He has no right to be a goddess's lover! At most, he's just a pet..."

Mingxian raised her eyes, glanced at Aphrodite, and asked Luo Hao, "What do you think this servant should be called?"

Luo Hao: "The Greek goddess of beauty is truly a scourge to the nation and a bewitching charm to the soul. Let's call her 'Heart of Calamity'."

Mingxian extended a finger and wrote the words "malicious intent" on the "Contract of Fate".

In an instant, Aphrodite's divine power diminished, weakening her to the level of a demigod, roughly equivalent to Riona Toba, who had used all her strength to break free of her restraints.

"How dare you!?"

Afo, no, "Evil Heart," was tearful but unable to resist. The iron chains binding her even tightened, making her thin dress taut and outlining her graceful curves.

Mingxian couldn't help but say, "If all else fails, why don't you just tear up the contract yourself? Living such a miserable life is worse than dying with dignity."

Why should I kill myself?

"You mean I'm the one who should die?"

"No, no, that's scary. Don't look at me like that."

"Evil Heart" shrank back, seemingly very frightened.

Mingxian was speechless. "Is this really a god? Don't they all have a strong sense of self-respect?"

“Those are disobedient gods; they have not violated the myth.” Luo Hao explained, “The self-esteem and strength of disobedient gods are directly proportional. Although they may cause trouble for people, they will never do anything despicable. For their own dignity, they will fight bravely even if they know they will lose.”

Mingxian nodded. "Now that you mention it, I'd rather fight the disobedient gods than get involved with these gods of the divine realms."

"why?"

"Because these gods will definitely do things like preventing the god-killer from getting ahead economically, and even denying their own teammates, and might even attack my family and friends. Their moral bottom line is extremely flexible..."

"Does Your Excellency dislike those who are despicable, cunning, and unscrupulous?"

"more or less."

Mingxian nodded, looked at Nemesis, and asked, "Do you want to commit suicide with dignity, or live a humiliating life under my control?"

"What is the price for driving me?" Nemesis asked.

Mingxian took out her "Contract of Fate" and replied, "Freedom. After you fight, you will have free time to do as you please. If you achieve great merit, you may gain permanent freedom."

I just casually drew a big pie in the sky.

Nemesis nodded slightly and said, "I can accept your employment for the time being."

Mingxian: "..."

Girl, you have a great appetite! You can even eat such a dry pancake.

The God of the Divine Realm and the God of Disobedience are indeed two different species.

It's best not to provoke them in the future. Fighting against disobedient gods is pointless; losing only means you die.

Given the flexible moral compass of these gods, it wouldn't be surprising if they did anything.

"alright."

What else could we do but comply?

Mingxian wrote "Hate Mo" on Nemesis's "Contract of Fate".

……

At the top of a lush, vibrant hill stands a magnificent olive tree.

Sunlight filtered through the sparse clouds, casting dappled patterns on the tree trunks and gilding them with a soft golden glow.

Under the shade of the trees, Mingxian and Luohao sat facing each other, their bodies seemingly enveloped in a faint, imperceptible atmosphere of harmony, blending seamlessly with the surrounding natural scenery, appearing exceptionally peaceful and serene.

"...So, this [Divine Realm] is based on Greek mythology and is currently in the period of the Trojan War," Mingxian confirmed.

Luo Hao said, "I arrived three days earlier than you, sir, and used my clairvoyance to see the world, which is why I came to this conclusion."

The two subordinate gods, "Evil Heart" and "Chou Mo," were observing everything outside the scene of the zither's sound. They had no intention of talking or coming out to speak.

Although a "fair" contract was signed.

However, the fact that they, as goddesses, were reduced to captives is truly disheartening.

Mingxian also recalled the beginning and end of the Trojan War: "The so-called Trojan War refers to the war between the coalition of Greek states and the city-state of Troy, which ended with the destruction of Troy."

"This war was a major war that lasted for ten years, but most of it consisted of repeated small-scale conflicts."

"The Greek army attacked Troy like pirates, while the Trojan army held firm in defense."

"In the final stage, the situation took a dramatic turn for the worse thanks to the heroic efforts of Achilles."

"Because he did not receive a sufficient reward, Achilles refused to fight. His best friend took his place but was killed in battle, which enraged Achilles. He then used this anger to cause a huge disturbance and single-handedly turned the tide of the battle in favor of the Greeks."

"At the end of the war, the Greek army used the Trojan Horse tactic, pretending to retreat and leaving a giant wooden horse in Troy."

"While the Trojans are complacent because they believe peace has been restored, let the soldiers hiding in the Trojan Horse attack the city."

"The Greeks plundered Troy, burned it to ashes, killed most of the men, and sold most of the women and children into slavery. Troy's treasures were loaded onto Greek warships."

A gentle breeze rustled the olive tree branches, making a soft, whispering sound, like nature's gentle murmur. Sunlight danced among the leaves, and in the interplay of light and shadow, the faces of the two people appeared and disappeared.

After Mingxian finished speaking, Luo Hao simply nodded without any joy or sorrow, and said, "Just as you said, Athena is on the side of Greece. Are we going to help Troy?"

"Go help them!"

Suddenly, "malicious intent" jumped out and hurriedly said, "You are, after all, my...employer. Shouldn't you stand on my side?"

Luo Hao glanced at her sideways, "You really don't know the rules. When the masters are talking, the maids should obediently wait to the side."

"Evil Heart" parted its lips slightly, wanting to refute, but was intimidated by Luo Hao's gaze, let out a sob, and fled back into Mingxian's body.

In response, Mingxian simply said, "Judging from the sun carriage I just saw, there seem to be other countries at the foot of Mount Olympus, with a structure similar to the Netherworld."

Luo Hao continued, "That's true. Beyond the realm of the Greek gods, there are indeed many human lands where people live their lives in accordance with the descriptions of Greek mythology."

"In other words, Troy is just a small world."
