Several days had passed after Lavinia stayed at Ryota's house.
Shuten, and Osakabehime quickly welcomed her as a new member of the household as they were already friends with Lavinia.
Tamamo was somehow angry when she found out Lavinia wanted to stay with them, though she still reluctantly agreed.
The vacant lot that Lavinia bought was still being used as a public parking lot because she didn't know what to do.
The past few days, Lavinia had moved smoothly from where she was before with the help of Ryota and Tobio, who offered to help them.
Although some new problems arose, for example, Lavinia had a habit of going to other people's rooms when she was half asleep, and because she was not aware of her own beauty, when Tamamo entered Ryota's room to wake him up the next day, Tamamo found Lavinia sleeping half-naked beside Ryota.
Tamamo angrily taught Lavinia common sense about the differences between men and women, after she saw that.
However, Lavinia was still sleeping in Ryota's room even though at least she wasn't half-naked anymore.
Luckily the bed in his room was big enough, so Ryota never touched Lavinia's body while he was sleeping, or Tamamo would get angry again.
—
Today was one of the rare days where all the residents, except for Lavinia, who was taking a shower right now, gathered in Osakabehime's room.
Usually, the place where they somehow gathered was the living room or the dining room. The only time Shuten went into Osakabehime's room was when they asked her to play a game, when Shuten usually refused them. After all, Shuten preferred to drink rather than play games.
However, she was still joining them right now.
Ryota was playing a new game that Osakabehime recommended.
Osakabehime was browsing several websites, looking for her new cosplay outfit.
Tamamo fed Ryota a late-night snack while watching him play a game.
And Shuten joined them because Ryota was sharing his King's wine.
Osakabehime's room was modified to be larger than normal because the collection of action figures and games takes up a lot of space. So, the size of Osakabehime's room was almost the same as the master bedroom in Ryota's house.
Ryota was stuck in one of the levels in the game he was playing now, so he tried to get Osakabehime's help.
"Hey Himecchi, how do you beat this boss?"
"…This one is cute. This one has special effects. Which one should I buy? Ah! Can't decide! Yes, yes. I'll just buy them all…"
Ryota felt slightly angry at being ignored by Osakabehime, so he pinched her cheeks.
"Ouch! Ouch! It hurts Ryo-chan!" screamed Osakabehime in pain with teary eyes.
Shuten looked at her with an amused expression.
"Fufu, you're so funny Hime."
"Shuten-chan! How dare you laugh at me! One day, I'll make you cosplay in a magical girl outfit!"
Shuten looked at Osakabehime with a scary smile, and a dark aura radiated from her body.
"Try it, Hime..."
Tamamo threw the fries at their heads and shouted.
"Idiot! Don't fight in the room! Master will be angry!"
Ryota was ready to use Enkidu to stop their fight, but it seemed Tamamo was ahead of him, so he couldn't help but smile at them.
Unfortunately, Shuten and Osakabehime misjudged his smile, and they thought he was really angry, so the atmosphere became awkward.
"...Sorry, sweetie."
Osakabehime walked to Ryota while smiling awkwardly.
"Hehe…Ryo-chan, what do you want to ask?"
Tamamo looked at the two of them and nodded silently. After all, using the Master's name was the best way to stop their fight.
As Osakabehime was helping Ryota, suddenly, an unfamiliar voice sounded in the room.
"Hohoho, the Gilgamesh descendant of this generation is really having fun with his life!"
'Everyone!'
Ryota used telepathy to talk to everyone. This sudden sound meant that someone had infiltrated his house.
Tamamo prepared her fox fire magic, Shuten summoned her sword, and Osakabehime was surrounded by flying weapons created by her origami magic.
Ryota and the others looked in the direction of the voice.
A beautiful woman with long black hair and blue eyes. She also had pointed ears like an elf. However, something caught Ryota's attention.
Her clothes.
This woman was wearing the popular Virgin Killer clothes.
However, no matter how good she looked in those clothes now, they still had to be vigilant.
"Who are you and how did you enter this house so easily?" Ryota said with narrowed eyes.
He knew that the barrier in this house was supposed to repel beings with the utmost limits at the ultimate level. That meant, anyone who wasn't strong enough couldn't teleport inside without permission, and this person in front of them was stronger than an ultimate class devil.
He made a note in his mind to create a stronger barrier after this, although he needed help doing that, since he didn't have a strong mastery of runes and barrier magic. But now, he needed to ask who this person was who had suddenly appeared inside his house.
The woman smiled.
"I am Nyx, the Goddess of the Night, one of the Primordial Gods of Olympus. How can I enter this house? I am in my strongest form at night, so entering a barrier at this level is easy for me."
When Ryota heard she was a goddess, he became even more wary. Many ripples appeared in the room, and golden chains appeared, ready to bind Nyx.
He prepared to use Enkidu, a golden chain that could even bind gods.
The chain could be summoned from anywhere the Gate of Babylon can reach, lengthening and shrinking indefinitely, and multiple individual pieces could be summoned at one time.
The strength and durability of the chain got stronger if the target was strong, but he also needed to pour more magic into the chain.
Enkidu could also be used to kill the target if Ryota used more force and magic.
"What do you want?" asked Ryota. If this Goddess wanted a fight, he would instantly bind her with the chain and kill her.
Ryota couldn't play with enemies at God level, especially if what Nyx said that she would be in her strongest form at night was true.
Nyx didn't react and was still smiling at him.
"Hades told me about a certain interesting human."
"Geh Hades... What's the matter this time? I already gave him the Invisibility Helmet in exchange for Shutencchi. Besides, how did you know about this place? I've never met you before."
Nyx smiled mysteriously and explained to them.
"Hohoho! Of course I know about you! All the powerful higher-ups in the Realm of the Dead know about you! Somehow you were able to summon the souls of the people confined in Cocytus! Even the main God of Olympus is watching over you!"
Ryota knew about the three great factions watching him, but this was the first time he had heard that Olympus was also watching him.
Ryota thought he had never done anything to make Olympus wary. So he needed information from this Goddess.
"Is this why you came to my place? To tell me my greatness?" asked Ryota while raising her eyebrows.
"Every god and Goddess on Olympus is wary of your power. Or your sacred gear. A normal Longinus has the potential to kill Gods, but your sacred gear isn't even on Longinus' list. However, we know your sacred gear contains many weapons that can kill Gods, and this is already above the Longinus level. That's why we keep an eye on every descendant of Gilgamesh who has the King's Law."
Ryota was still silently staring at Nyx. If they just needed to keep an eye on him, this woman wouldn't need to appear in front of him right now. Even the Heaven faction that had watched over him since he was a child had only ever appeared before him less than ten times.
While he was thinking about this, Nyx continued.
"Even though all the Gods in Olympus are wary of you, I came here for a different purpose. Actually, I'm interested in you. You are very different from all the previous holders of the King's Law. Your personality. Your attractive original magic. Your indifference to more power. Is there a human more attractive than you?"
"...Eh?"
Ryota looked at Nyx weirdly. He thought they wanted to invite Ryota to their faction or trade his weapons, but this conversation was moving in a weird direction right now.
Actually, Michael and Azazel also said Ryota was different from all the previous King's Law holders. However, if he was 100% different from them, Ryota never thought so. After all, He still liked to collect treasures.
He was the holder of the King's Law but that didn't mean he would act like Gilgamesh. All previous holders except Gilgamesh were all idiots, as they were just trying to be Gilgamesh version two with their false arrogant and selfish attitude. That was how they died so quickly.
Humans have always had greed for power. Ryota was no different. It was just that he preferred to focus on controlling his own power first before trying to gain more power. He couldn't even use the full power of Enuma Elish. At least after that, he would create new original magic or try to create new skills from the power of the King's Law like Gilgamesh.
"I want to see a boy who attracts a lot of people's attention with my own eyes. I am one of the primordial Goddess. so I've lived long enough and everything in my life has become boring. What do I want? Let me stay in this place so I can observe you." said Nyx.
'Master! This Goddess is dangerous!'
'Well, I'll follow you sweetie. This Goddess is strong but I don't think she wants to fight.'
'...What should we do, Ryo-chan?'
Ryota glanced at Tamamo. She tells him that Nyx was dangerous, but why was Tamamo looking at her clothes instead of her face?
"How about Hades and the other gods? Do they know about this?" asked Ryota.
"Hoho. I'm a free goddess. Even though I sometimes help Hades for his realm, he can't even stop me if I want to leave," answered Nyx haughtily.
Ryota thought for a while and said.
"Okay then. I want you to make a pact with Mephisto Pheles later. At least he needs to know about this."
"Agreement? Sure. I'm not going to stay here every day anyway."
If Mephisto knew a primordial goddess wanted to live in his house, at least he would help enchant the barrier because they would attract more attention from the Olympus and if the Olympus complained to him about Nyx leaving her job, he knew Mephisto would help him. And if somehow Nyx wants to attack him? That's why Ryota said to Nyx to make the agreement. So Mephisto will help him to contact the Olympus faction about this.
If Mephisto knew a primordial goddess wanted to live in his house, he would at least help conjure up stronger barriers because they would attract more attention from Olympus and if the Olympus complained to Ryota about Nyx leaving her job, he knew Mephisto would help him.
The reason Ryota told Nyx to make a pact was for Nyx to just keep an eye on Ryota and know she had no ulterior motives.
Grauzauberer was one of the leading Magician organizations and Mephisto also had contact with the Gods of Olympus, breaking the agreement with Mephisto would leave Nyx and the Olympus faction with a lot of enemies.
The only god from Olympus Ryota ever encountered was Hades, and his realm was different from that of the other Olympian gods. So Mephisto would help him to contact the Olympus faction about this.
Basically, Mephisto would help him with any problems that occurred.
The golden chains disappeared, and the others also made their magic and weapons disappear.
"Hoho. Even if you chain me with Enkidu, you can't kill me. I wear special clothes to block every virgin's attack."
Ryota looked at the clothes Nyx was wearing again.
"Those clothes? I thought you wore them to seduce me." Ryota said innocently.
Tamamo suddenly panicked and screamed.
"I knew it! This Goddess is dangerous, Master! She wants your virginity! If you want, I can wear it every day! Don't be tempted by her!"
Ryota glanced at Tamamo again.
'Is this why she thinks Nyx is dangerous?' thought Ryota.
If Tsubaki or Tamamo, or Osakabehime were wearing that right now, maybe he would have attacked her and taken her straight to bed. But, she was Nyx, not one of them. And he didn't want to tell Tamamo that. He didn't know about Shuten because the clothes Nyx was wearing now required big breasts to capture her sexiness.
"Are you all still virgins?" Nyx asked while giving them a strange look. She thought at least Shuten wasn't a virgin anymore.
"Of course. The person I summon will have a renewed body. Their physical scars before their death will disappear. How do you know about their virginity?"
"Hohoho, Don't underestimate a goddess, boy."
Ryota frowned.
"Stop calling me boy. My name is Ryota Kise."
Nyx didn't seem to care about his name and smiled at Ryota. It seemed she still wanted to address Ryota as a boy.
Nyx walked to one of the chairs in the room and sat there, then she said to Ryota.
"Boy, you can call me Nyx."
"Ryo-kun! My Onee-san's power to sense danger is tingling! What happened to you!?"
Suddenly the door opened, and Lavinia, whose hair was still wet and only covered in a towel after taking a shower, shouted at him.
Her skin also was still slightly wet. She ran from her bathroom to this room without drying herself first.
Ryota looked at Lavinia's body for a while, and sighed.
"Dry yourself and put on your clothes first. I'll explain later."
"Hoho. It hasn't even been 5 minutes, and I've seen something interesting. You seem to be completely different, Ryota." Nyx smiled mysteriously.
