What race could be more powerful than the gods, to the point that they possess the complete mythological arts, yet can only be their candidates?
"This is just my idea for now. We'll talk about it once you've truly grasped it."
Su Mo didn't reveal much.
"Just in time, the Last King is catching up."
Upon hearing this and noticing the rapidly approaching aura of steel, Athena did not press further but instead stood in front of Su Mo.
She originally intended to prevent the other party from getting close to her master, but she did not expect that the Last King valued etiquette even more than she thought.
Just a hundred meters away from Su Mo, this terrifying deity, who had caused a world-class apocalypse and nearly overturned the entire Far Eastern island nation in the Pacific Ocean, stopped and even knelt down to pay homage with utmost piety.
"Rama, son of King Tencha, greets the Great God!"
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.
The two people fighting fiercely were Su Mo's family members and Su Mo himself kneeling down.
Is this really the treatment a god-slayer should receive?
Even if the other party is the Shattered Moon Demon King, isn't this just too outrageous?
Even Erica was somewhat puzzled by this, but Su Mo himself was not surprised; he simply asked out of curiosity.
"you know me?"
"I know...no!"
Rama, the Last King, nodded and then shook his head, his expression showing great inner turmoil.
"Although I cannot distinguish whether you are Brahma, Shiva, or Vishnu, my divine nature tells me that you at least possess the divine nature of the Triad, one of the most revered divine beings among our pantheon."
In Hindu mythology, the supreme god is the Trinity, which is why Rama could not distinguish which one Suma was.
But he knew one thing: Su Mo's status was absolutely the highest.
As a former Kshatriya, he had to pay homage to a being of the Trinity level; otherwise, according to the rules of the Hindu pantheon, it would be a grave sin of blasphemy.

"I see."
Su Mo nodded slightly.
Now, he contains the mythological chronicles of all the pantheons of the Godslayer world. Rather than saying that he is the supreme god of different pantheons, it would be more accurate to say that he is the mythology itself carried by different pantheons.
He is not a god, but an being who governs mythology and the history of mythology.
The gods such as Rama and Michael only observed a part of his existence, which is why they regarded him as the supreme god. They could not understand that the essence of his existence was far superior to that of gods or even mythology.
However, that's alright.
"You still have some manners, don't you? They were thinking of just getting rid of you on the spot for disrespect!"
Jibril said something that seemed quite unexpected, and then stopped what she was doing.
Since the goal is to win favor, they naturally need to solve problems that Athena cannot solve.
If Rama hadn't knelt down on the spot, he would probably have turned to ashes by now.
"...You flatter me, how could I dare to disrespect the great deity!"
Sensing Jibril's terrifying aura, Rama trembled and lowered his head with utmost respect.
Others might think Jibril was exaggerating. How could the Last King, whom even Athena, a goddess capable of destroying the human world, be so easily dealt with by an angel?
However, Rama himself instinctively sensed that Jibril truly possessed this power.
That aura of death, strong enough to make even the most resilient steel hero tremble, could easily obliterate his steel immortality.
People were stunned by Rama's attitude.
They then realized that not only Su Mo, but even one of Su Mo's servants held such a position.
"You came to pay your respects voluntarily to fulfill your mission?"
Seeing that Rama seemed hesitant to speak, Su Mo asked.
"May the great god see the truth."
Rama nodded immediately.
As the last king, he was entrusted by the gods to be a hero and to destroy the demon king who ravaged the land in 807 – the Godslayer.
From a human perspective, one might think that the god-slayer is the only hero who can save humanity under the protection of a god who does not obey.
From the perspective of the gods, all human actions are perfectly justified, whether they are curses or blessings, they are simply how the world should be.
Therefore, in a harmonious society built by humans and gods, the god-killer is the absolute villain, a demon king who should be defeated.
Based on this theory, the Last King, as the hero wielding the Holy Sword, is destined to defeat the Demon King.
"I have no intention of fighting against Athena, but the destruction of the Demon King is my destined fate."
Rama explained it this way.
He also held Athena, the goddess, in high esteem.
"Humph!"
Upon hearing this, Athena showed displeasure.
"The god-slayer is the master's spoils of war, how dare a petty thief like you lay a finger on him?"
"..."
Rama looked at Su Mo in silence, unable to refute.
The conflict between the two sides lies in this, so no matter what he says, he cannot resolve this meaningless conflict.
Seeing the exhausted appearance of the Steel Hero God in front of him, Su Mo slowly spoke.
"As the prototype of the hero myth, it is indeed your mission to slay the Demon King, but judging from your appearance, you must already be tired of this mission, right?"
"...I can't lie in front of a master, yes."
After a few seconds of silence, Rama nodded.
In his view, slaying the Demon King was a perfectly just cause, which was why he agreed to become the final king.
However, after one killing and destruction after another, and finally even having his wife kidnapped by the Demon King and become his enemy, he began to doubt his mission.
That is why he did not appear for nearly a thousand years, until the number of god-slayers reached seven before he was forcibly awakened.
Although he was forced to oppose Athena due to his mission, his reason for wielding the sword was merely the most basic responsibility; he despised the mission of the Last King itself.
"In that case, I can allow you to relinquish your status as the Last King, I can rescind the fate imposed upon you, and I can grant you your freedom again."
Seeing that the other party agreed, Su Mo made a suggestion.
"In exchange, you must do everything in your power to fight Athena."
"what?"
Rama was quite surprised to hear this request.
As one of the Supreme Triads, Su Mo's promise was naturally very effective. The so-called identity of the Last King was nothing more than a constraint imposed by the Three Goddesses of Fate, which the Supreme Triads could easily remove.
He had no doubt about Su Mo's promise, but he didn't know why Su Mo had made this condition.
"To fight Athena with all our might?"
"Yes."
Su Mo nodded, then looked at Athena beside him.
"This is a trial."
"I understand."
Rama suddenly realized.
It is common for deities to bestow blessings or curses upon those who grant trials.
Although the subjects of the trials are mostly humans, it is common for beings at the level of supreme gods to conduct trials on ordinary gods.
"Master, I will not let you down, I will definitely win!"
Athena showed no fear whatsoever; the goddess of victory issued a declaration on the spot, her gaze blazing.
And so, war broke out again.
"A thousand dragons, a thousand snakes, now all have become blades!"
"The blade that cleaves planets reveals the light of salvation!"
The Savior Blade and the Black Blade rose from the ground simultaneously, the platinum-gold Morning Star and the pitch-black Black Hole stood facing each other, and thunder and storms clashed against each other.
The entire world trembled.
Seeing this scene of the end of the world, Sayamiya Kaoru, Mariya Yuri, and the others who were kneeling on the ground felt a chill in their hearts.
But in front of Su Mo, they didn't even have the right or the courage to speak.
They could only witness the apocalypse unfold before their own eyes.
On the battlefield, one side fights for freedom, while the other fights for control of power.
The blade that cleaves planets, born from the earth, collides with the black blade that represents the chaos of the primordial earth.
Without a doubt, the Savior Blade, representing the steel element, completely counters the Black Blade, representing the power of the earth.
However, under the mythical spell of the Creator Goddess, Athena received energy from the entire earth, and the power she unleashed was enough to completely overwhelm the final king.
It was only because the God of Salvation could draw power from the Black Blade that it was able to stand firm.
It seemed that the battle was about to return to its previous state.
Athena glanced at Su Mo beside her, and her aura instantly intensified several times over.
"The Mother of Creation!"
