Shirou's clones number 30 million

"Have you all placed your bets? Xiuer, aren't you going to place one?"

"No interest. This summoning circle needs some time to study. I'm going back to Valhalla."

"You haven't left Valhalla yet?"

"There's nowhere to go even if we break away, so we might as well stay here."

"When you were traveling, didn't many girls want you to stay? Were you not satisfied?"

"You can't say it like that, it's just... inappropriate."

Liu Xiu selected several books related to summoning magic from the bookshelf, and with a thought, left in front of the group of warriors.

Upon seeing this, Rimuru unconsciously recalled Liu Xiu's experiences during this period.

After helping Imagawa Yoshimoto unify the country, he did not stay behind but embarked on a new journey.

The second time, Liu Xiu was born in a modern world.

At that moment, I was looking at a primary school girl who had problems with both legs.

Hearing that her parents had both passed away and she had been living alone, Liu Xiu stayed there and took care of her for a period of time.

Once her legs recovered and she was able to live independently, she left again and embarked on her third journey.

The first time, Liu Xiu descended into a female version of the Three Kingdoms world. After helping the female Liu Bei unify the world, he was about to return when he was summoned by Louise.

Having no interest in becoming someone's familiar, and even less interest in dating a little girl, he left her with a wild wolf as her familiar before departing.

"Truly composed, worthy of being Emperor Guangwu."

A slight smile appeared on Rimuru's face as he muttered to himself:

"Traveling to different parts of the world and seeing different scenery is a dream shared by many Shirous."

Rimuru himself had also looked forward to such a thing.

However, due to many ties in life, it is really difficult to leave resolutely.

Moreover, even if you travel to other worlds and meet more people, you might not want to leave.

The first world features a female Imagawa Yoshimoto, the second world features a primary school student Yagami Hayate, and the third world features a female Liu Bei.

Regardless of which one it was, they all sincerely hoped that Liu Xiu could stay and live with them.

Perhaps he hesitated, but in the end he still chose to leave.

This kind of unwavering commitment to freedom is something I absolutely could never achieve.

If I were in the same situation, I probably would have surrendered in the first world.

Suddenly, the Anywhere Door opened, and Apollo stepped out.

Upon seeing this, all the young men stepped forward.

"How did it go? Did it succeed?"

Come on! Shake hands.

Apollo nodded slightly:

"It went very smoothly."

"Haha... Fujimaru Ritsuka must be furious right now." Asami Shirou, who never misses a good show, said with a laugh.

"Given his personality, he won't hold a grudge. It'll be fine tomorrow." Rimuru shook his head slightly, then looked at everyone with a smile. "Gentlemen, do you still remember the bet from earlier?"

Chapter 633 Did I disappoint you?

Chapter 633, Section 634: Did I disappoint you?

[In the age of mythology, there was a group of young men who protected the Greek goddess Athena. Their fists could cleave the sky, and their feet could shatter the earth...]

Artemis listened with interest to the broadcast announcement, her gaze lingering on Saori Kido for a long while before she sighed:

"Do you really know what you're doing, Athena?"

"If you persist, it may eventually trigger a new war of gods."

“God wars are completely different from the mortal wars you have experienced in the past. Even if I support you, it would be meaningless if I were the only one.”

Saori Kido remained silent. Having read the manga, she naturally knew the general outline of her past plans.

Pegasus was trained to be a weapon to slay gods. The will of each generation was condensed into the Pegasus Cloth. As long as the new Pegasus has a firm belief, he will inherit the will of all the past Pegasus Saints.

However, this was merely preparation for a holy war.

If we ask ourselves honestly, even the weakest god is no match for ordinary people.

Even if Pegasus has the potential to kill a god, even if he were to risk all his faith and his life, he could at most trade one life for one with a weak god.

If a war between gods really happens, in the end, we can only rely on ourselves.

“Sister Artemis, there’s no need to worry too much. I’m tired of this endless holy war. If it can bring peace to the world, I’m willing to give up the ownership of the land.”

"Is that what you really think?" Artemis glanced at her with a half-smile. "If that's really what you think, why don't you bring Uncle Poseidon or Uncle Hades over here?"

"I think the two of them would be very happy to become gods of the earth."

“The two of them aren’t a good match,” Saori Kido said with a smile. “However, if it were Artemis, it should be fine.”

"Are you sure? If I take over the land, where will you go?"

"Actually, I've thought more than once about letting go of all my burdens and being an ordinary person."

"Athena, I never thought you would become so hypocritical."

"I mean it."

"You probably don't even believe that yourself, do you?"

Artemis lost interest in chatting with Saori Kido and turned her gaze to the construction site on the side of the street.

There, three slimes are turning stone bricks into a solid wall.

Although I have been observing the earth, my perspective has not remained fixed on one place for long.

Unexpectedly, such a strange object has appeared in the world.

The slimes I just saw come in more than ten different colors, each corresponding to a different ability.

Healing, washing, sewing, building... all these bizarre abilities come together in one creature, making one wonder why the Creator values ​​the tiny slime so much.

"Athena, if you were given the choice to live in the heavens or on earth, which would you choose?"

"Of course, it's the human world. It's not that I crave the power of the earth, nor that I have any dissatisfaction with the heavens. I... simply prefer the hustle and bustle of the human world."

"I see. I do prefer a quiet atmosphere. Nowadays, forests have greatly decreased, and the wild animals that once roamed the land are few and far between. I really find it hard to like it."

Saori Kido remained silent for a long time, then sighed softly.

"Severe environmental damage is indeed the most serious problem in recent years."

"However, humans have also realized this and are working to restore farmland to forest. Although it is difficult to restore the glory of ancient times, it is still of some use."

Artemis glanced at her indifferently and said in a slightly cold tone:

"If you keep hanging out with mortals like this, you'll get hurt sooner or later."

“Is Artemis showing concern for me? Thank you,” Saori Kido said with a smile. “When I was little, I often wondered what it would be like if I had an older sister or brother. I never imagined that reality would be so much more amazing than I imagined.”

"Have I disappointed you?"

"No, that's not it. I'm just feeling a bit emotional. The way sisters get along is really different from what I imagined."

"The celestial realm and the mortal realm are naturally different. I don't know what kind of sister you imagine, but I obviously can't become the kind of person you expect."

"Well, I've never expected that either."

Saori Kido smiled to herself, thinking:

The progress has finally reached fifty percent.

Cold on the outside but kind on the inside—that's pretty much the description of her.

As long as you play the emotional card, you're bound to succeed.

……

"I did it, Brother Apollo."

Looking at Saori Kido, whose face was beaming with joy, and Artemis, who stood to the side with a cold expression, Apollo looked back and forth between the two.

Although I don't know how Saori Kido persuaded Artemis, as long as the result is good, there's no problem.

So, the next thing to do is to summon all the gods as soon as possible and convene the Olympian Council.

It would be best to do it before the Star Martial Festival begins, so that we can completely get rid of that old Zeus and no longer need to wear his tiger skin.

"I'm sorry to trouble you with this matter, Artemis."

"Brother Apollo, are you confident?"

"Yes, about 90%."

Apollo nodded slightly and said seriously:

"Then, the Olympia Conference will resume tomorrow morning when the sun rises. Just arrive on time."

“Brother Apollo, I would like to correct my previous request.”

Saori Kido glanced at Artemis and said again:

"I intend to relinquish ownership of the land and live on Earth simply as an ordinary human being."

Artemis picked up the conversation and added:

"After I obtain ownership of the land, I will abolish the Sanctuary and cease all interference with humanity."

"Let what belongs to the gods belong to the gods, and what belongs to humans belong to humans."

Apollo looked surprised. Abolishing the Sanctuary meant that the Saints within it would have no connection with any god.

It's not surprising that Saori Kido made this decision, after all, she clearly hasn't regained all her memories and her personality leans towards her own.

Selling away her hard-earned savings was like selling her family's land without a second thought.
