Gamer System in Campione - Chapter 11
🕑 Added 2021-11-10 03:11:37 +0000 UTCThat was one of the few things he didn't like about his being a god slayer, the fact that people always had ulterior motives regarding him.
Although that was easy to identify due to one of his Authorities.
Seeing Jack talking to Ozymandias all the people inside and outside the Witenagemot building begin to bow to King Sun and pour out the list of services they could offer.
"Welcome! Your Highness, would you like to visit the British library? We have over a million books. We can make a special reservation-"
"Hahaha! Your Highness! You must surely meet my daughter! She is 45 years old, single and is-"
"Oh my god, aren't you cute! I just want to fuck you u-"
"Hamlet's play is taking place in..."
Ozymandias' eyes narrowed more and more as his patience with all those people was waning.
Seeing this Alice decided to intervene.
"Oh please stop everyone~!" Alice said in a cheerful voice, her tone composed and eloquent. Even so, her voice resonated somehow along the entrance, causing everyone to stop, realize what they were doing and stop so as not to displease the new king.
Alice pushed through the crowd and practically dragged Ozymandias to his office on the first floor, closing the door with a loud slam.
The Sun King sighed as he finally got some peace, honestly that was one of the things he hated most about being a Campione.
Alice bowed with a smile, her general condition unchanged despite having been at ground zero of everyone's attack. Her smile was tense, probably due to the blatant disrespect the other members of Witenagemot showed me.
She began to apologize profusely, bowing several times to Ozymandias while he just sighed.
Some minutes later.
"I hope the tea is to your liking." Alice said, smiling across the tea table that had been set up inside her office.
"It's good" said Ozymandias smiling slightly, he had to admit that this was the first time he had tasted such good tea: "What's the brand?"
"It's Da Hong Pao," Alice said.
Ozymandias' eyes widened as he stared in surprise at the tea.
"Isn't this the most expensive tea in the world?" asked Ozymandias, surprised, remembering the tea that was worth more than gold.
"Ah, we weren't sure what to serve the king, but I just yelled that we should serve you dearest as a respect, so…" Alice said with the smile still on her face.
"Oh, so in the future, please don't try too hard just for me," said Ozymandias with a sigh.
"You are very humble, Mr. Ozymandias, and thank you for caring about us. Most Campiones don't mind thinking of normal humans, and most only address their fellow Campiones or gods." Even the sigh that accompanied her little one complaint was made bubbly and eloquently. "However, although accidentally, you brought up a good topic." She seemed to gather herself and began to speak more reasonably behind her voice. "Mr. Ozymandias, what is your objective here in England?"
Sighing, King Sun set his cup on the table as he turned his serious gaze to Alice.
"Mrs. Louise" He started slowly: "What do you know about the Holy Grail?"
Some time later.
Ozymandias sighed as he looked across London from one of the hotels that towered over the earth like a skyscraper. After saying that he wanted to rest after talking to Alice he had been given the room with the best view, overlooking the metropolitan city with street lights and buildings entering the dark room and lighting it slightly.
Flashback.
"Sacred chalice?" Alice asked, her expression was one of confusion for a moment, then turning into her usual polite expression: "Mr. Ozymandias, why do you want to know about the Holy Grail?"
The Sun King looked at her for a few moments before sighing and starting to speak.
"From my information the Holy Grail is a very important item for a certain Heretic God," said Ozymandias calmly.
"Do you plan to use the Holy Grail to summon this Heretic God?" asked Alice fearfully.
From what she had seen Ozymandias was different from the other Campiones, but if that was his real intention.
"No, I plan to stop this Heretic God from manifesting," said Ozymandias, taking Alice by surprise.
"Actually, this God is already here on earth, but he is asleep, and inevitably he will wake up, but he will be very weakened, and so he would need the Holy Grail to regain his power, so I plan to destroy the Grail" said Ozymandias seriously.
Alice's eyes widened in surprise.
"Is this Heretic God so dangerous?" Alice asked with a gulp.
If Ozymandias, considered the strongest Campione, were so afraid of this Heretic God…
"Yes, he is considered the strongest Steel, a Heretic God with many, aspects and Authorities, his sword can seal Authorities. If the Campiones are god slayers then he is the Campiones slayer" explained Ozymandias calmly.
"Killer de Campiones?"
"Exactly. This God awakens once every thousand years and kills all existing Campiones before going back to sleep," said Ozymandias with a sigh.
"I see," Alice muttered as she thought about everything that was going on.
"Do you believe me?" asked Ozymandias with a smile.
The Sun King had nothing but words for Alice, there was no way he could prove to her that the King of the End was real.
"Well, I have my doubts, Mr. Ozymandias, as your claim has not been tested and has never been heard until now" She said with a small smile
"However, I don't believe you're the kind of person who lies in a serious matter, nor do I see any reason to lie to me on this occasion" Then she looked away and muttered with a small angry expression that made her face look cute. than angry: "And if I can take that man's treasure ..."
"That man?" Ozymandias asked, confused by his sudden breaking of the smiling face steady into a small frown.
"Oh, it's just that another Campione is looking for the Grail, Mr. Ozymandias" Alice said, her face turning into a beatific smile.
End of Flashback.
Black Prince Alec.
That was the name of the other Campione who sought the Grail.
Apparently, the other Campione has been pursuing the Grail most of his life, inheriting his father's wills.
This was something Ozymandias knew, but not in as much detail.
It would be likely that for him to take the Holy Grail he would have to fight another Campione.
And apparently, according to Alice, she and Alec met a girl named Guinevere, who offered the Grail to Alec for his cooperation two years ago, but was rejected by Alec, who wanted the Grail to be taken out of his hands freely, without being become your ally.
Ozymandias could not remember this Guinevere well, his memory of the events in Campione was not that great, it had been a long time since he had seen the anime and read some of the novel, and most of his knowledge came from his research on that universe in your past life.
Sighing, Ozymandias decided to get some sleep before thinking about what he was going to do.
