Chapter 972 972: Dionysus is truly evil
'I didn't expect Eiji-sama to have a fetish like that...'
Eiji read Ryuu's thoughts and glanced at Medusa with a smile that seemed to say: My wife, what exactly did you tell Ryuu? You didn't say anything too much to your future sister-in-law, did you?
Medusa didn't understand the meaning behind her man's smile; she said nothing. And if she had to answer, she might have told that green-haired elf too much.
Eiji didn't know if he should laugh or pretend not to know. It must be the latter.
"Yo, you two. Behind this wall, there are two people hiding." He pointed to a wall that looked no different from the other walls in Knossos.
However, neither of the two women doubted him. Because, from their watches, they detected the presence of a Creature in the direction he was pointing.
"Should I destroy that wall?" Medusa asked.
Eiji shook his head, "Let me do it."
*Bang!*
With a casual punch from his hand, the wall made of Orichalcum shattered into pieces, revealing a passageway.
Ryuu opened her mouth slightly, but she didn't say anything. After all, even though Eiji was a god, he didn't seem to be bound by divine rules like the other gods.
With Eiji leading the way, the two women followed him as he walked into the secret passage.
They looked like a group of cartoon treasure hunters—that was just Eiji's impression, of course. At the end of the passageway, they arrived at a room that wasn't very large.
There, a blond man was sitting on a luxurious chair, and a woman with a face resembling Filvis's. But unlike Filvis, her skin was blue, making her look like a monster.
She was Ein.
And the man beside her...
"Welcome to my little hiding place. Eiji, I didn't expect you and those two women to be the first ones to find me here."
Dionysus said with sadness on his face, but no hatred, which left Ryuu and Medusa puzzled.
A normal person would surely be furious that the grand plan they'd been preparing for years had been thwarted.
But this man...
His reaction wasn't what they expected.
Only the woman beside him, Ein, was staring at them with hatred and murderous intent in her eyes.
"You didn't expect this? Liar. You've clearly been keeping an eye on me and my familia for the past few days. Otherwise, you wouldn't have sent Filvis to lurk around my familia's house, Dionysus."
Eiji gave a faint smile, he himself didn't look at the man in front of him with hostility or hatred.
However, it would be different if Dionysus had made Demeter his scapegoat, just as in the original story.
Fortunately, he hadn't done that yet.
In Eiji's eyes, the man in front of him was nothing more than someone who had set the stage for him.
"Hehe, that's right." Dionysus laughed, he didn't realize his own plan had been exploited by the man in front of him. "I admit that compared to the Loki Familia and the Freya Familia... Eiji, you and your familia, consisting of Level 8 and 9 members, are the only variable in my ultimate Orgia plan."
Hearing the god openly admit that he was the mastermind behind all the terrible things that had happened before, Ryuu felt disgusted and looked at him coldly.
Dionysus is an evil god!
"However, what could I do? I couldn't stop your Familia members from killing the six Demi-Spirits, and the Corrupted Spirit that had even fused with Nidhogg."
"Your family's power even surpasses that of Hera and Zeus's families; you've really made me powerless."
Dionysus sighed, in his own way, he had witnessed how the members of the Seiya Familia had defeated the monsters he had mentioned.
Those women are monsters.
Especially Artoria and Scáthach—they're Level 9! Otherwise, there's no way they could have killed six Demi-Spirits and the Corrupted Spirit/Nidhogg so easily.
Even the Hera Familia only has one Level 9, the Empress.
But the Seiya Familia...
Dionysus was a little jealous of Eiji, but that was all. What he wanted most in life was to witness an Orgia on a massive scale!
Even so, that was clearly impossible to achieve. At least not after Eiji and the members of his familia suddenly appeared in the lower world.
"Is that a compliment?" Eiji asked.
He wasn't in a hurry to decide what he would do to Dionysus.
As for Ein?
Having one Filvis was enough for him.
"That's a compliment." Dionysus said, and then asked curiously, "By the way, what did you do to Filvis? You didn't seem to kill her."
"Oh, why are you so sure I didn't kill her?"
Eiji gave a faint smile, but his expression was indifferent.
Filvis? Ryuu suddenly realized something was off. She was also curious about what Eiji had done to that woman?
Even though he knew Filvis was the captain of the Dionysus Familia, he let her participate in the Gantz game.
Unlike the others in the room, Medusa had a guess about what Eiji had done to Filvis.
But she didn't say anything about it.
"That's because Ein… her original self simply felt the connection between her and her clone had been severed." Dionysus stood up and stepped forward to place his hand on Ein's shoulder.
Feeling the touch of her god, Ein blushed slightly but still glared fiercely at Eiji.
Just like in the original work, Ein was more infatuated with Dionysus and loved him. She was even more foolish than Filvis.
That's why Eiji didn't want her, and didn't even want to bother lowering himself to change her mind.
However, he was curious to see how she would react after finding out what had happened to Filvis.
Dionysus felt that Eiji's smile resembled his own when he was planning the ultimate orgy. He was just like him, a god who sought pleasure in twisted and immoral things!
"So that's how you feel..." Eiji's gaze fixed on Ein, there was a hint of amusement in his eyes before he said, "I didn't kill her. Instead, I gave her a new life by creating a new body for her and transforming her into a High Elf. Now, she is my assistant."
"What!? You, you did that to a clone like her? Lying! You must be lying!" Ein shouted with disbelief on her face, but her voice was tinged with jealousy.
Besides, just like Filvis, she also felt disgusted with herself because she was a monster.
She glanced at Dionysus to make sure Eiji was telling the truth. The gods have the ability to detect lies.
Dionysus had a surprised expression on his face, and felt Ein's gaze... He turned to her, "Eiji isn't lying."
"...!" Ein's body trembled, she lowered her head to hide the obvious jealousy on her face.
Clearly, she was the real Filvis.
But her clone had a better life than she did!
Eiji helped her, and even made her a High Elf!
She didn't know how he'd done it, but what was impossible for a god?
And Ein wondered if Dionysus could do the same for her?
As a villain who relies on his intelligence, Dionysus certainly knew what Ein might be thinking right now, and felt helpless. Even if he were to break his seal, he lacks the ability to do what Eiji did.
The abilities of the gods and goddesses vary.
Eiji might be a God of Life or something like that.
[Hehe, good. Show me more of that jealous look. I like it.]
The heroines: "...."
Ryuu: "...."
Do you have a hobby of making others jealous of you, Eiji?
Your hobby is bad.
"Even so, Eiji... How did you do it?"
"May I ask?"
He was curious about how Eiji had transformed Filvis, who had turned into a Creature, back into an Elf. Or more precisely, a High Elf.
Ein lifted his face again, she also wanted to know how her clone could have been turned into a High Elf.
If possible, she wanted to imitate it. Unfortunately, it wasn't as easy as she thought, and the key was…
"It's simply because I have the ability to do it."
Eiji Seiya.
If only she could receive help from him like Filvis...
Ein bit her lip, but she knew it was impossible—the situation had already gone this far.
She wouldn't betray Dionysus over that, either.
Knowing what she was thinking, Eiji could only conclude that this woman was truly beyond saving.
"The fact that you can use your abilities to that extent... The divine rules seem to have completely ignored you, Eiji."
"You're clearly not the kind of god from heaven I know. I also understand why Ouranos is so optimistic about you, and doesn't blame you for one of your familia members killing Ishtar."
Dionysus began rambling about things that happened in the past. He had clearly investigated a great deal about Eiji and his familia beforehand.
Eiji wasn't surprised.
"I didn't mean to keep it a secret... Has Ouranos still not told the other gods that I am a god from another universe?"
"A god from another universe!?" Dionysus's eyes widened, and his voice sounded excited.
Eiji looked at him impassively, "It seems you're just finding out now. In any case, prepare to face your punishment."
He didn't want to talk to Dionysus any longer. Besides, he'd already gathered enough evidence.
More precisely, the conversation they were having was actually being live-streamed by him.
Using his magic, he had secretly contacted Ouranos and manipulated his Divine Mirror.
Right now, the gods and goddesses gathered on the 30th floor of the Tower of Babel were, of course, stunned.
"Dionysus really is an evil god!"
"He admitted it himself!"
"For the sake of his desire to witness the Orgia. He planned it all, and even wanted to kill the other gods. He cannot be forgiven!"
"Eiji, kill him! Send him back to heaven!"
"By the way, the Seiya Familia is really amazing! If it weren't for them, everyone living in Orario—including us—would be dead."
"The members of the Seiya Familia, and even Eiji himself, have achieved a great feat by thwarting the evil god Dionysus's plan!"
"This is the first time I've heard that Eiji is a god from another universe. Divine rules don't apply to him either."
"With a god like him, who can freely wield his power in the lower world... I don't think we need to worry so much if the Black Dragon breaks free from its seal."
Many gods spoke enthusiastically. The news that Eiji was a god from another universe wasn't even questioned by them. That was because Hermes skillfully steered the conversation; he was the god who suddenly brought up the Black Dragon.
Many goddesses gazed at Eiji's face with blushes on their cheeks.
"Eiji is so handsome!"
"I wonder if Demeter doesn't mind sharing him with the other goddesses?"
"I've wanted to sleep with Eiji for a long time! Now, I can't stand it anymore..."
"I don't mind being his mistress!"
"Ahem! Sorry, but Eiji doesn't seem to like cheap women." Among the crowd of goddesses, Demeter was actually there too.
Hearing those women talk about her man with such infatuated expressions, her lips twitched.
She was a little annoyed.
She didn't mind Eiji having a harem, but these women who'd slept with so many men were clearly unworthy of being her sisters!
"Demeter, you're so stingy!" One of the goddesses complained and glared at her.
However, she didn't deny that she was a loose woman. After all, all the gods and goddesses in that room were of questionable age.
Except for certain goddesses, many of them had already slept with many men, although their track record in that regard wasn't as extensive as that of the Goddesses of Beauty.
Back to the secret room in Knossos.
Hearing that Eiji wanted to punish her god, Ein couldn't stay silent. "I won't let a single one of you touch Dionysus-sama!"
She was clearly overestimating herself.
Because when she charged toward Eiji and his group, her speed was comparable to that of a Level 3 adventurer.
Ein cursed Filvis because after losing her, she hadn't regained her full power as a Level 7 either.
Without a word, Ryuu drew her sword and blocked Ein's slash.
*Clang!*
Under the gaze of many gods and goddesses, including Eiji, the two women's swords clashed. Ein spun around and unleashed a series of rapid slashes with her advanced sword skills.
Level 4 adventurers would still have a hard time defeating her. But Ryuu was a Level 5, and each of her attribute ranks surpassed those of many other Level 5s.
Her sword technique was no less than Ein's.
She easily blocked every slash from her opponent and counterattacked. Soon, Ein had numerous cuts on her body, but she hadn't given up yet.
She leaped and unleashed her super short magic chant, "Dio Thyrsos!"
Unlike Filvis, who had become a High Elf, the lightning bolts she fired were black, and the destructive power of the spell was also far weaker.
Ryuu didn't evade; she easily blocked the attack by parrying it with her green wooden sword, Alf's Justitia. It wasn't just any wooden sword, of course, but a top-tier weapon!
By infusing the sword with her magic, Ryuu was able to strengthen her attack and shatter Ein's lightning bolt.
"Impossible! Even if I'm only Level 3, my Dio Thyrsos spell couldn't possibly be blocked like that!"
"With the special weapon and enough skill, it's not impossible."
Ryuu responded to Ein's outburst with indifference. At that moment, she didn't realize Eiji was staring at her butt. Because when moving at high speed, her short green cloak fluttered, revealing the curves of her voluptuous buttocks clearly to the eyes of a Hegemony God.
[You're misusing your vision, host.]
'Miss System, that's slander! I haven't even used my vision to see through my target yet.'
Eiji rubbed his nose.
Miss System fell silent. She was sure Ryuu and the other women would be terrified if they found out her host could see through fabric.
But what he said was true; he hadn't used his vision to that extent, at least.
She was a little surprised.
My host actually still had that much morality left?
"Dionysus-sama, run away from—" Ein didn't finish her sentence; Ryuu, who had blocked her attack earlier, had already lunged toward her and slashed at her neck with lightning speed.
She couldn't react.
Ein's head flew through the air and landed in Dionysus's hand. Before her death, she saw a gentle smile on his face.
"Ein, you've worked hard. It's okay; we were destined to fail."
"Ah, Dionysus-sama... I'm sorry." At that moment, Dionysus also covered her eyes with his hand, and his smile faded as if his previous gentleness had been nothing but an act.
He was just acting!
Until the very end of her life, Ein remained utterly infatuated with him.
The gods and goddesses watching the livestream knew this, and cursed Dionysus for toying with that woman's feelings—and even his own familia members! The latter were reportedly said to have committed suicide after drinking wine concocted by Dionysus.
The wine they drank had the effect of controlling their minds to a certain extent.
Dionysus was truly scum.
Ryuu pressed the tip of her sword against Dionysus's neck and glared at him with utter disgust.
"I'm glad Filvis-san at least met Eiji-sama and was freed from your brainwashing, Dionysus."
