In a place called the Temple of Infinite Time.
It was a singularity that existed outside of space and time. A completely unique place that is not connected to any universe. It is a temple-like structure located on a floating asteroid.
It works similarly to a Serenitea Pot or a private dimension.
The ruler of the place is someone who does not have a physical body. His entire form is a stone lion mask with two snakes protruding from the sides, serving as his hands.
The mask is inside the temple and attached to the wall.
His identity is Zurvan— the God of infinite time from Ancient Persia. One of the most powerful gods in Campione.
His authorities were absurd.
He had authority over Eternity, infinity, perpetuity, creation, and absolute destiny.
Not long ago, in order to eliminate an anomaly called 'Eiji Seiya' because its presence made him unable to see the future.
He contacted Godou, one of the Campione and pretended to be himself from the timeline. He even gave him memories of his other self, which was actually the future that would have happened if Eiji had not appeared.
He wanted to use Godou to kill Eiji.
Something like this didn't happen in the original work, but because of the things Eiji did. One of them was stealing the Golden Sword / Authority of the warrior from Godou. His power was not enough to protect him from Zurvan's thread of destiny.
In other words, Godou did not have enough plot armor.
"I found you."
Eiji's voice was heard by Zurvan.
"!!!"
He was surprised especially when he saw a pair of giant Rinne Sharingan suddenly looking at him from the void.
At the same time, he also lost the connection between him and Godou. The thread of his destiny seemed to have been severed.
"Detecting the presence of intruders entering the temple."
"Combat mode activated."
Zurvan spoke like a robot, his words sounding mechanical.
Right after that, the space around the shrine shook and many waves of white energy enough to destroy several countries flew towards the intruder.
The intruder was Eiji of course.
But only his consciousness was there and manifested as a pair of giant Rinne Sharingan.
Seeing the attacks that were about to hit him, he used
He was able to do that because his Rinne Sharingan was from the Miss System. She loved him so much that she made him capable of using all the various abilities of all kinds of Mangekyou Sharingan and Rinnegan.
If the Uchiha in the Naruto world knew this, many of them might vomit blood.
"That's an unfriendly welcome, Zurvan."
And yes, he knew who the person who had manipulated protagonist Godou was. When he found out from Rasiel, he was a little surprised because one of the villain bosses from Campione had moved faster than he expected.
Since he was hiding in a singularity that was not connected to any universe, he had to trace his thread through Godou to meet him as he was now.
"Who are you?"
There was confusion in Zurvan's voice and he did not seem to know the intruder was Eiji. After all, not many people knew about his existence.
Unless he gave permission, no one could enter his residence. Even the other gods... They shouldn't be able to.
However, this guy was strong enough to infiltrate his residence and block his attacks with ease.
"You couldn't guess it? I thought you were so smart and had a brain like a super computer."
There was mockery in Eiji's voice.
Then, his inner voice was heard by the heroines.
[One of the strongest Gods in Campione, the God of infinite time, Zurvan. I didn't expect him to pretend to be a Godou from another timeline and deceive Godou in this life.]
[In the original work, he was a villain boss who often moved behind the scenes. With his authorities consisting of Eternity, infinity, perpetuity, creation, and absolute destiny. He has manipulated many destinies belonging to others and created various incidents to kill the God Slayers.]
[Like many other gods, he disliked the God Slayers including Godou. However, he is now making use of Godou to deal with me.]
[I have a guess as to why she did that. His actions remind me of Alaya and Gaia from the Fate universe.]
While many of them wondered if Eiji would find it difficult to defeat Zurvan.
From the description of his abilities, he seemed like a very powerful God.
He even had the title 'Infinite' which was somewhat similar to the Infinite Dragon God, Ophis.
[Alaya: Ugh... Does that man still hold grudges because of things that happened in the past?]
[Gaia: Oh? I'm sure not, our husband just said that casually.]
[Alaya: I-I think so.]
[Vivian: Alaya is so anxious. Is she worried that Eiji hates her? Fufu~]
[Alaya: I'm not![
You did it, thought every member of the chat group including Vivian (OC Goddess from Shinmai Maou no Testament with the appearance of Vivian from Epic Seven).
As expected of Eiji.
He really conquered women like Alaya.
If Zurvan was a girl and so beautiful... Needless to say, Eiji would definitely woo her!
"....." Eiji.
He felt that his women were thinking of him.
Ah, he was so loved.
Hearing what her host was thinking, Miss System refrained from commenting.
"Judging from several possibilities. There is only one person..."
"You are Eiji Seiya, an anomaly whose past and future I cannot know."
Zurvan spoke without emotion.
However, Eiji's hearing was very sharp. He was able to detect the anger of the Time Lord in Campione.
"That's true and obvious. After all, I just defeated Godou. Your ability called the thread of destiny is quite interesting."
"If I kill you... Will I be able to use it too?"
No one knew, but ever since setting foot in the world of Campione. Eiji already had plans to obtain Zurvan's authorities.
The ability he had made him a little greedy.
Rather than let the protagonist Godou kill him like in the original work, he would kill him himself.
Eiji grinned, the manifestation of his Rinne Sharingan releasing more spiritual energy and enough to make the Temple of Infinite Time tremble.
"?!" Zurvan sensed a threat.
Despite not showing it on the surface, he was also insulted that a God Slayer dared to take him as prey.
He was the master of infinite time and destiny!
With his power, he had stood above many gods. If he wanted, he could even kill people by turning back time before their birth. However, there was a problem.
The person in front of him was not the same as the others. He did not know his past. When he used his omniscience, he only saw darkness.
"An incorrigible creature."
"You are the one who will be killed."
Zurvan's snake arm extended and pierced through the void. Then, he grasped the hilt of a familiar-looking golden sword.
It was the Divine sword of salvation.
Eiji was not surprised.
In the original work, it was not only Godou. Zurvan also had that sword. As far as he knew, it was because Zurvan had a relationship with Mithras.
The two were even the Gods who created the Temple of Infinite Time. He didn't know the details because in his previous life, he probably missed the information about that.
"Well, whatever."
With the sword in his hand, Zurvan unleashed an enormous bolt of golden lightning.
It was the Lightning of salvation.
The destructive power contained within was immense and had anti-divine properties.
However, Eiji was still calm and used another Rinne Sharingan ability.
He created a max-level Susanoo that he controlled remotely. The armor-clad giant was dark red in color, had a pair of wings, four arms that each held a sword hilt.
With one sword and one slash, he cleaved the Lightning of salvation and at the same time destroyed the temple where Zurvan was.
*BOOM!!*
A huge explosion occurred inside the singularity.
However, Eiji knew Zurvan was still alive. In front of his Rinne Sharingan, he even saw how he avoided the attack from Susanoo by creating a time barrier.
The barrier instantly turned back time so Zurvan didn't take damage.
The authority of time and infinity allowed him to do that. In Eiji's eyes, it reminded him of Gold Experience Requiem's (GER) ability.
"Eiji Seiya, you—"
Zurvan didn't expect the Lightning of salvation he unleashed to be cut down by the giant over 100 meters tall in front of him.
He was furious and killing intent could be felt from his form. But before he could finish his words, Eiji interrupted him.
"Your defense is good. How about this?"
Eiji attacked again.
This time, his Susanoo unleashed many slashes at once. Zurvan panicked, even though he was confident in his time barrier, he used Lightning of salvation again.
A barrage of golden lightning strikes and crimson slashes collided. Many explosions lit up the place.
Unbeknownst to Zurvan, because he couldn't even see Eiji's future. Susanoo grew a pair of arms. With that hand, he held the bow and locked onto his opponent's position
He shot an arrow in the midst of the colliding attacks. The arrow pierced through the explosion and hit Zurvan who was late to react.
*BOOOMMM!!!*
The colossal explosion engulfed Zurvan's small figure and a moment later. He was still alive, but there were small cracks on the surface of his mask.
His time and infinite authority was still able to save his life. Even so, he was not happy.
Not only physically, he also felt that his soul was severely injured by the attack. His time and infinity authority could not instantly heal him.
That was strange.
What he didn't know, Eiji mixed the previous attack with Reiatsu and the World Serpent Poison.
And to prevent Zurvan from turning back time to heal his wounds. He used Time Matter on a singularity scale.
If Zurvan wanted to rewind time, he advanced time. It made time run normally and stopped for a moment many times.
"Detecting abnormalities."
"Eiji Seiya, did you poison me and have the ability to manipulate time?"
Unlike his other enemies so far, Zurvan was furious but still asked like a robot.
Eiji felt he was pathetic.
The author of the original work made his personality like that.
As a man, he didn't even have a body. He must have never dated and done adult things with beautiful women.
[Hiss! I can't imagine myself becoming Zurvan. What's the point of having such a powerful force, but not being able to exercise with beautiful women?]
The heroines: "....."
I'm sure if it was a normal person, they wouldn't think that far ahead of the person he was fighting.
"You realize it... So give up and let me kill you."
"?$!#$!#!" Zurvan.
"Huh? What did you say?"
Eiji was confused.
Oh wait, Zurvan definitely wanted to swear but the program prevented him from doing so.
"I see, you must have agreed to surrender, right? You made a wise choice."
"!?" Zurvan trembled.
Damn it! Eiji Seiya, you shameless creature!
That's what he wanted to say, but he was helpless.
[Who is the villain here?]
It's Zurvan, Miss System. Have you never read Campione's novel?
[No, but the host... You know the villain I'm referring to is you.]
How rude.
"Eiji Seiya, you won but there's no way I'm letting you kill me."
Zurvan said and the space behind him opened wide.
He was planning to escape to a random place in the parallel universe.
However, how could Eiji just let him go?
"I'm not having a discussion, I'm just telling you."
As if an invisible hand was grasping him, Zurvan froze. The portal to the parallel universe he created seemed to be getting further and further away.
He was pulled back and forced to come face to face with a pair of huge eyes in front of him. There was also a huge giant that seemed to be looking down on him.
In his entire life, this was the first time he was defeated and felt so afraid of someone.
Eiji's power was more absurd than him!
His authority was useless in front of him.
"Amaterasu."
As soon as the words were dropped by Eiji.
Zurvan's body was devoured by black flames.
"Aaaaghhh!!!"
Zurvan screamed in pain, he was unable to withstand the temperature of the black flames that supposedly could not be extinguished until his target was killed.
A few seconds later.
The god of infinite time, Zurvan turned into ashes floating inside the singularity.
He was dead.
His death made many other gods in the Champione universe gasp. They didn't know what happened, but one of them seemed to have been killed by a Campione.
And it was no ordinary God.
Somewhere, Athena also felt the same way. She looked up at the sky with shock on her loli face.
"A God has been killed again. Who was the Campione who did it?
"Was it Eiji?"
Thinking of the man who had deceived her and fled to another country while carrying a part of herself (Gorgoneion).
Athena pouted.
What made it more problematic was that she was now having trouble keeping track of his position.
She didn't know that because Eiji kept Gorgoneion in his inventory.
Speaking of men who were thinking of the Goddess of Wisdom.
In the underworld.
"My son, we meet again~! I knew you were very strong, but I didn't expect you to even be able to kill Zurvan."
That cheerful and cute voice belonged to none other than Pandora.
Perhaps she was the only God who knew how the God of infinite time was killed.
By the way, after Eiji killed Zurvan. She tried to pull his consciousness to her residence.
Eiji didn't resist and here he was. Boldly, he lifted the True God's body in front of him and carried it.
"Pandora, did you miss me?"
"Ehh? Yes... Wait! My son, you still recognize me and remember our previous meeting?!"
Pandora was surprised, but didn't try to break away from Eiji's embrace. Ahem, it was natural for a son to hold his mother, right?
She enjoyed it.
Still, she had no idea how Eiji still remembered her. That meant, her memory erasing magic failed and the 'thing' they did before too...!
Pandora felt a little guilty again towards her husband, Epimetheus.
"I remember, how could I forget?"
"But I gave you..."
"Speaking of your memory erasing magic. Even before I became a Campione, I was immune to that kind of magic."
Does that make sense?
No, someone who hadn't been a Campione for a week and killed three Gods didn't make sense either.
One of the gods he killed was even a god of Zurvas' caliber. And he killed him without using the authorities of the Gods he had killed before.
With her powers as a True God, Pandora was able to see the fight that her children (the Campione) were having with the gods.
When she saw the Rinne Sharingan and Susanoo that Eiji used, she was amazed and surprised of course.
"Huh... I see. You are indeed different from my other sons. Now, it's time to reward you for killing a god again."
Pandora sighed and tried to be professional.
However, she only looked cute in Eiji's eyes.
"Reward? Of course, I'll gladly accept it."
After he said that, he pinched Pandora's chin and brought his face closer to hers.
Pandora pushed his handsome face away with her small hands. "Stop. What do you want to do?"
"Huh?" Eiji tilted his head in confusion and said, "Isn't it obvious? I'm going to kiss you again."
"...!" Pandora blushed and stammered, "I-I know you want to kiss me, but what you want to kiss is wrong. I just need to kiss your forehead."
"That's not wrong. After all, we've done it before."
"Before was just an accident! I... What if my husband finds out..."
She was worried about Epimetheus' reaction.
Eiji grinned and said, "If he finds out and gets angry, I face him for you."
"You would do that?"
Pandora was moved, she felt immoral but also excited. To answer her, Eiji brought his face closer to hers.
Pandora hesitated to resist and in the end, their heads seemed to connect with each other.
She closed her mouth, opened her mouth and moved her tongue.
Epimetheus was again green.
[Hehehe. Our king, why don't you take that legal loli home instead of leaving it in this place?]
Good idea, Leme!
Unfortunately, after having another affair, Pandora immediately sent his consciousness back to his body.
Pandora wiped the liquid left on her lips and snorted with a flirtatious smile on her face.
"Hmph! Naughty child. If I hadn't sent him back to the human world right away, he might have been more daring."
It was not without reason that she said that.
It was because earlier, she felt something hard poking her butt. She was suddenly anxious about their next encounter in the future.
Unlike the other Campione, Eiji would probably eat her!
However, Pandora had anticipation in her heart. Her guilt for her husband had also become stronger.
