I am a god-slayer, not your hero.

"[Astra] Destroy him!"
Astraeus's body, as vast as the universe, suddenly burst forth with dazzling light, followed by an astonishing transformation.
Miraculously, a hundred arms grew from his body.
Each one is steady and powerful, as if it can bear the weight of heaven and earth.
He held a dazzling star tightly in each hand, like a pearl from the night sky, embedded in his body.
This ruler of the stars did not hesitate to unleash his magnificent power.
With a flick of his wrist, Astraeus sent a hundred stars streaking across the sky like meteors, carrying irresistible power and the light of destiny as they hurtled toward Tony.
……
On the land of 【God Realm·Troy】.
The Trojan Palace, majestic and solemn, stands like a mythical fortress on this ancient land.
Inside the palace, the room that the Trojan royal family had carefully prepared for Mingxian and Luohao was like a quiet paradise, isolated from the hustle and bustle of the outside world.
Inside the room, sheer curtains swayed gently, and candlelight flickered, illuminating the silhouettes of a perfect couple.
They haven't stepped out of this small area for some time.
Time seemed to freeze in this tranquil space, leaving only the whisper of the wind outside the window and the clamor of the distant battlefield, weaving together a silent symphony.
With a gentle wave of his hand, Luo Hao conjured several large plates between them, each displaying a vibrantly colored Chinese dish, resembling a stunning work of art.
The first dish was thick slices of pork placed on a leafy green. The pork, cut into several centimeters, was stacked in more than a dozen layers like a mille-feuille, each layer radiating an enticing sheen. It melted in the mouth like light snow, and the sweetness of the meat juice slowly bloomed in the mouth, making it intoxicating.
The second dish was a dozen or so spring rolls arranged in a triangle shape, with a bright red outer skin that looked as fiery and tempting as flames.
Spring rolls are filled with sweet sauce and various sweet taro pastes, making them into smooth and delicious sweet cakes. The profound and varied sweetness comfortably embraces the throbbing taste buds without being too sweet, leaving a lingering aftertaste.
The third dish was a clear broth with translucent wontons floating in it, shimmering with seven colors like a kaleidoscope.
The wontons are filled with diced vegetables and minced meat, each a different color—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple—a beautiful sight to behold.
Mingxian took a sip of the soup, and the wonderful coolness and sourness were very refreshing. Then, she bit into the colorful wontons, and the freshness of the fish and vegetables played a variety of delicious harmonies on her tongue, which was as intoxicating as a symphony.
Before she could even swallow, Mingxian couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "I'm always amazed by your skills every time I taste it."
“In the past, as the daughter of the Luo family, I received the proper upbringing for a woman. But now that I am the supreme master of martial arts, it would be beneath my dignity to display my skills in the kitchen.”
Luo Hao smiled contentedly, "Only you, sir, are an exception. It's only natural for a wife to cook for her husband."
At this moment, Luo Hao casually picked up the moon lute beside him and gently plucked the strings, filling the clear air with almost heavenly music.
The melodious poems of Qingming Festival resounded all around along with the sound of the zither.
"Place the zither on the table, sit languidly, and let your heart be filled with affection. Why bother to play it? The wind will produce its own sound on the strings."
She wasn't someone who deliberately showed off her skills; she just did it on a whim.
Enjoying the delicious food and listening to the music, the two were immersed in the wonderful time.
Mingxian felt a little conflicted. He had planned to cause a ruckus in [God's Realm - Troy], but because of his agreement with Luo Hao, they would be husband and wife for a month.
For some reason, Luo Hao actually started to play the role of a wife conscientiously.
Not only does he cook for her every day, but he also spends all his time with Mingxian and even teaches her to play the stringed instrument.
The two were so harmonious and loving, it was the envy of everyone around them.
With the idea that "if I don't sleep now, I won't have the chance later," Mingxian felt that this place was more important.
In any case, Mingxian felt that he had fallen.
"I was originally planning to go find Athena first, but I didn't expect that the effects of [Holding Hands to Cross the Dust] and the Godslayer training would be so good." Mingxian thought to himself, "Originally, it would take the yin energy of three thousand girls to increase the stamina of a Godslayer, but I didn't expect that if it were a Godslayer, one would be enough."
"Unfortunately, Luo Hao was a complete accident. If it were Annie or Elsa, it wouldn't have been so easy."
"But this is not bad either, we've made a profit anyway."
Having finished dinner, Mingxian naturally planned to begin his training for the day.
Luo Hao blushed slightly, showing no sign of rejection. The two of them had been like this for the past few days, spending most of their time cultivating and the rest of their time either eating or dating. Their level of affection even surpassed that of the iconic Trojan couple.
In the outdoor scenes, "Evil Heart" watched Mingxian and Luohao's cultivation with great interest, and even made a few comments.
"Qiu Mo" next to him couldn't help but chuckle, "Watching people's ○ behavior makes you ○?"
"No, no!" The tone was somewhat unconfident, but "Evil Heart" still raised its chin and said, "This is a ritual for creating life, which is very sacred. We gods only need to use our powers to create life."
"Like those demigods, fairies, and heroes."
“Life doesn’t need to be so intense; I mean, a solemn ceremony is enough to create life.”
"But humans have to do these things."
With his hands on his hips, "Evil Heart" expressed his thoughts: "The process of creating life is sacred and should be joyful!"
"Chou Mo" sneered: "You hedonist."
"Evil Heart" snorted coldly and continued to watch the battle between the god-slayers, while asking curiously, "Nemesis, what do you think a child born from two god-slayers together would be like?"
"Power cannot be inherited; at most, it's just some divine blood." "Chou Mo" showed no interest in this. "However, given the anti-fate power of a god-slayer, the combined anti-fate power of two god-slayers is not as simple as one plus one being greater than two..."
"That's it."
"Evil Heart" nodded slightly, not finding this statement surprising.
“However, there is also an unexpected one.” “Qiu Mo” seemed to have thought of something.
"What accident?"
"Gods can be reincarnated as humans, and not only gods, but also some divine artifacts with immense divinity can be reincarnated as humans." "Chou Mo" didn't keep anyone in suspense and said directly, "If a god or divine artifact happens to want to be reincarnated as a human, perhaps it can be reborn as the child of a god-slayer."
"Evil Heart" was somewhat speechless and said, "Even if a god were willing, that rude female god-slayer wouldn't accept it, would she?"
"Too."
Just as the two subordinate gods were talking, Mingxian suddenly stopped moving.
Luo Hao couldn't help but turn his head and look at him with a puzzled expression.
In the exterior scene, the surface patterns of the [Spirit Jujube Pit] shimmered with light, and Edelweiss's voice entered the soul.
"It is indeed a bit difficult to disturb the lovers' affection, but my master, I must tell you something: the sun has not set all day."
Mingxian looked at the curtains and could see beams of light shining through the gaps.
"It's time to get down to business."
……
Stepping out of the room, Mingxian and Luohao walked together to the pavilion in the palace courtyard.
Edelweiss had been waiting for a long time. She had changed into a white Greek-style dress and was watching Cassandra wield her sword.
Sensing someone approaching, Cassandra lowered her bronze sword.
"It's been a long time since we last met."
Sweat beads clung to her cheeks, but her smile remained radiant.
Mingxian looked Cassandra up and down: "Are you practicing your sword?"
Cassandra nodded. "My brother was seriously injured. Although he barely survived, we can't expect him to be active anymore. We can't keep relying on Sister Ai, so I also need to do my best to fulfill my duties as the Trojan princess."
Mingxian said slowly, "Are all you princesses so obsessed with becoming stronger?"
"Why do you say that?"
"Because every princess I've met wants to become stronger and take on responsibilities."
"Has Lord Naruhira met many princesses?"
“Two, I guess.” Mingxian thought of Juliet and Stella, and added, “One of them is my girlfriend.”
"Girlfriend?" Cassandra tilted her head. "But isn't Lord Mingxian married to Lord Luohao? Could she be a former lover?"
Mingxian shook his head. "It's my current girlfriend."
"Eh?"
"Actually, Xiao Ai is also considered my girlfriend."
"Eh?"
"Weren't you also asked by Apollo to be one of his lovers? Relax, relax, it's nothing."
"That's it..."
Cassandra felt a little dizzy, her eyes darting between Mingxian, Luohao, and Edelweiss.
Mingxian then walked towards Edelweiss, asking, "Is it always daytime?"
“To be precise, the sun is nowhere to be found, but the sky is still bright,” Edelweiss said, pointing to the sky.
You can't see the sun at all, but the sunlight is plentiful.
What is the reason?
"do not know."
Luo Hao looked up at the sky, then suddenly turned to Cassandra and asked, "Princess of Troy, do you know why?"
Cassandra gave a soft hum, her voice barely audible: "Actually, I have a vague premonition that someone stole Lord Helios's chariot, which led to the current situation."
Upon hearing this, both Mingxian and Luohao felt a subtle unease, and an indescribable feeling welled up in their hearts, like a ghost in the mist, appearing and disappearing, making it impossible to understand.
The thought seemed to say, "Cassandra's prophecy sounds rather dubious."
Edelweiss also involuntarily frowned, his eyes revealing doubt and worry.
Mingxian took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and mobilized his incantation power, which was like a spring breeze, instantly dispelling the uneasy cloud.
When he opened his eyes again, a warm smile was on his face, and he said gently to Cassandra, "Thank you, your help was invaluable."
"Do you really believe my prophecy?" Cassandra's voice carried a hint of uncertainty, and her tone revealed a subtle sadness.
Upon hearing this, Mingxian's smile widened: "Of course I believe you. Actually, I'm quite curious why you would ask such a question?"
Cassandra lowered her head, her long hair obscuring half of her face.
“This is a gift bestowed upon me by Lord Apollo, the ability to foresee the future. But I refused his invitation to become one of his lovers and went against his good intention of elevating me to the position of a witch on earth. Therefore, I have been punished by the gods, and no one on earth will believe my premonitions and prophecies.”
