Erica: "It's alright, I'm definitely not as busy as before."
Erica: "However, there are still some minor things to take care of; we're just waiting."
Rin Tohsaka: "A small matter?"
[Xiao Yuan: "Is this Lord Su Mo's mission?"]
Erica: "Mm."
Erica: "It was just dealing with a disobedient god. You've all seen it, right?"
After consulting with Su Mo, Erica casually turned on the live stream.
Before seeing the live stream, everyone remained silent in response to Erica's words.
Kanae: "..."
Rin Tohsaka: "..."
[Xiaoyuan: "It's nothing... Erica's tone is as if she's dealing with roadside weeds."]
[Rin Tohsaka: "We've all seen scenes of god-slaying, and we know that this isn't a problem for Lord Su Mo. But I remember that Erica initially held gods in great awe."]
[Rin Tohsaka: "What changed you, making you think that killing a god is a trivial matter?"]
[Rin Tohsaka: "Is this Lord Su Mo?"]
[Xiaoyuan: "I feel there's no doubt about this."]

077 New Group Members, Their Plot to Rebel Against the Gods
Erica: "If you knew what had happened these past two days, you certainly wouldn't be surprised by a mere disobedient god."
As she said this, Erica sighed softly.
Thinking back to myself three days ago, I was still anxious about the legendary mythical beast, and my reverence for the gods was ingrained in my bones since childhood.
I certainly couldn't have imagined back then that so many changes would happen in just three days.
Improving one's own abilities is the least noteworthy thing.
What once seemed like a miracle of god-slaying has become so commonplace that people have grown numb to it after it has been repeated so many times.
Rin Tohsaka and the others had only witnessed two battles that killed gods, both of which were one-on-one, so their threshold for such battles was not raised, and the idea of killing gods still held appeal for them.
However, anyone who has witnessed Su Mo mass-producing gods like a flowing stream, slaying seven or eight disobedient gods in one go, and cutting them down like wheat in one fell swoop, would find it difficult to feel any reverence for disobedient gods anymore.
Currently, with only one disobedient god in the battle, the outcome is hardly in doubt.
Although, given Erica's current strength, her chances of winning against a god of disobedience are not very high.
But that doesn't stop her from thinking the other person is bad.
After all, she had seen far too much.
[Xiaoyuan: "Although I don't know why, I always feel that Erica-neechan has worked very hard."]
[Rin Tohsaka: "I'm very curious about what happened that completely shaped Erica's perception into Lord Su Mo's form."]
Erica: "This is too complex to explain in words; you'll understand later."
Although there was only one disobedient god in front of her, Erica was certain that Su Mo's next mass killing of gods was not far off.
After all, there are still four god-slayers who have not submitted, and they can all be used as key materials for the divine summoning ritual.
Rin Tohsaka: "Riddler, get out of Fuyuki City!"
[Rin Tohsaka: "Huh, an owl?"]
With her sharp eyes, Rin noticed something amiss in the live stream footage.
It's still daytime, so why would an owl fly to the headquarters of the Copper Black Cross?
Before Rin Tohsaka even spoke, Erica had already sensed a strange aura.
Looking at the enormous owl, she pressed her hand on the hilt of her sword and asked the question with the most basic courtesy.
"Excuse me, what is Body Control?"
"Hmph! Standing before me, you don't even recognize my name? As the witch of Hermes, how can you be so blind?"
Upon hearing Erica's question, the owl in front of her suddenly spoke, its tone quite feminine.
Xiao Yuan: "Wow, the bird is talking!"
[Rin Tohsaka: "What kind of god uses an owl as a familiar?"]
The group members were quite interested in the owl in front of them and began to speculate about which disobedient god it might be.
Before they could guess any clues, Su Mo, who was present at the scene, had already given the answer.
"Athena, the goddess with bright eyes, you have indeed come."
Athena's other name is the Goddess of Radiance, which actually means "the goddess whose eyes shine with light," and in its most original sense, it means "the goddess with owl eyes."
Therefore, the owl is the most representative symbol of Athena.
"As expected of the Rakshasa King, he seems to have some discernment."
Upon hearing that Su Mo recognized it, the owl nodded in satisfaction, and then transformed into a silver-haired little girl who looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old.
Despite its incredibly small size, it exuded an aura even stronger than that of ordinary disobedient gods.
[Rin Tohsaka: "Is this the famous Athena, the goddess of victory? She seems kind of cute."]
[Xiaoyuan: "Indeed, she looks so young!"]
Unaware that she was being judged by others, Athena looked at Su Mo with unusual seriousness after officially revealing her form, her dark eyes fixed on the divine artifact in Su Mo's hand—the Gorgon Stone.
“Son of a fool! Since you deliberately lured me here with this divine artifact, you must have your eyes on my power and are prepared for battle, right? I will surely reclaim what is rightfully mine, so you—”
There was a "click" sound.
Before Athena could finish her threatening words, Su Mo casually tossed over the Gorgon Stone, which was of great importance to him.
"what?"
Athena was stunned; even the most powerful wisdom in her mind couldn't understand why.
She was mentally prepared to confront Su Mo head-on if necessary to seize the Gorgon Stone, but she never expected that such a precious artifact would be given to her so casually.
"Didn't you want this? Here you go."
Su Mo waved his hand, seemingly unconcerned.
"..."
Athena instinctively thought it was a trap, but after carefully examining the Gorgon Stone, she discovered that the artifact itself was not the problem.
So, she felt a little lost.
She asked in bewilderment, "Why didn't I immediately use the Gorgon Stone to complete my divinity?"
"Godslayer, what are you doing?"
The sudden act of kindness left her confused.
"It's just to express basic sincerity."
Su Mo said very frankly.
"There's something I need your cooperation on, so I wanted to ask if you'd be willing."
"You're returning this divine artifact to me merely for asking a question? Aren't you afraid I'll refuse your invitation?"
Athena asked in confusion.
Regardless, the other party's actions were far too risky.
Having obtained the Gorgon Stone, she is now more than twice as strong as before!
"Of course I'm not worried. I believe the goddess of victory wouldn't do such a thing. Besides, this divine artifact is just a gift to make you stop and negotiate. It was originally yours, and whether you accept my invitation or not, it's yours."
Su Mo naturally didn't care about this small boost.
If Athena accepts the invitation, that would be fine. Even if she doesn't, Su Mo can still obtain all of her enhanced divine attributes by killing a god.
No matter which Athena chooses, he will not lose out at all.
Athena may not have thought of this, but Su Mo's tone still pleased her greatly. Almost no god would dislike having their credibility recognized.
With a slight upturn of her lips, the young silver-haired goddess gripped her divine artifact and asked with considerable interest.
"What could possibly be worth such a price, just to involve me?"
"The matter itself is very simple, but we need to confirm your personal opinion first."
Su Mo carefully observed the goddess before him and asked.
"Before that, I'd like to ask you something. As a goddess of the Trinity, what you're pursuing now is to unify the divine status of Medusa, Metis, and Athena, and reclaim the glory of the Earth Mother Goddess... is that right?"
In the world of Godslayer, Athena's divine nature is clearly that of the Earth Mother Goddess who was defeated and dismantled by the Steel Hero God.
As an ancient earth goddess, she was originally a widely worshipped goddess queen in the Mediterranean. However, during the spread of mythology, the matriarchal clan was replaced by the patriarchal clan, and the mythology was gradually degraded.
Finally, her divinity was split into three parts: one goddess of wisdom, one goddess of victory, and one simply slandered as a monster.
Unlike Guinevere, who chose to submit to the Steel Hero God, Athena is a type with a strong rebellious spirit.
Therefore, she chose to rebel against the myths and descend to the mortal realm, attempting to complete her divine status and return to her original form as the ancient Earth Mother Goddess.
"You actually know this?"
If Athena hadn't been angry when Su Mo touched her wound, she would likely have been furious.
But now, Su Mo has given such a generous gift as soon as they met, and his tone of inquiry is quite serious, not sarcastic.
Since she was being beholden to the food she was being fed, she naturally couldn't adopt a very forceful tone.
"very good."
