Inner Voice: All Heroines Hear My Inner Voice Chapter 1090: Dating and enemy attacks

At a certain time.

Eiji told Pandora to leave the Underworld and come with him to his home in the human world. Pandora was a bit hesitant to go with him because of her duties as a ritual master. There are also the rules of mythology and the laws of the world.

Unlike the Heretic Gods, who reject their own mythology and manifest in the human world, bringing disaster in their wake, Pandora is an "obedient" goddess. Therefore, she cannot manifest in the real world like the heretical gods who are the enemies of the Campione.

However, Eiji resolved that issue with just a snap of his fingers.

"I’ve already taken care of that. Even if you descend into the human world, you won’t become a Heretic God. You’re still a True God—and, of course, my woman, Pandora."

He had just used All Fiction.

Pandora, who had gotten dressed and was sitting on the edge of the bed, was stunned. "My husband, this... I do feel that what you said is true."

She said that while clenching her tiny fists repeatedly. A change had come over her, as if she were no longer part of the plot devised by the author of the original work.

By the way, Pandora called Eiji "husband." That clearly means she’s divorced Epimetheus!

Now, she no longer even felt guilty about betraying her ex-husband.

She gazed at the man standing before her and reached out her hand to him, her eyes full of tenderness.

"Let’s go." Eiji said.

Pandora reached out her hand with a bright, childlike smile, "Yes, my husband!"

A few seconds later.

Eiji had teleported Pandora to the front yard of his mansion. And what he said was true—Pandora didn’t feel like she had broken any rules.

She hadn’t turned into a Heretic God.

Her body was also truly a physical one.

"How does it feel?" Eiji asked.

"I’m fine! Husband, you’re amazing. It’s been so long since I’ve actually been in the human world."

Pandora replied cheerfully.

It would be a lie if she said she wasn’t bored living in the quiet, grave-like underworld.

If it weren’t for the rules set by the author of the original work, she would have been wandering the human world long ago.

Unlike Epimetheus, who had only forced work upon her for centuries, Eiji gave her a freedom she’d never known before. Pandora was overjoyed; she didn’t regret letting that man fuck her earlier.

"Come on in. I’ll introduce you to my other women, even though you should already know who they are." Eiji lifted Pandora’s body off the ground and carried her.

Pandora cried out; she wanted to say she could walk on her own. But feeling the man’s hands squeezing her butt as he carried her, she swallowed her words.

Come to think of it, Eiji seemed to really like her butt—and the other women’s, too. He’s a butt maniac!

So forget it—let him do whatever he wants.

The next day.

By then, Pandora had met Erica, Liliana, Lucretia, Athena, and the other women living in the mansion in person.

Erica and the others pretended to be surprised. Even though they’d known all along that Pandora had become Eiji’s woman and had been anticipating her arrival.

They welcomed her with a friendly attitude. Luo Hao was no exception, but she felt a little strange because she was also a Campione, and had met Pandora in the underworld when she killed a Heretic God for the first time.

She hadn’t expected that yesterday, Eiji would bring that woman back with him and make her their sister.

Instead of feeling jealous and angry, Luo Hao was actually proud of her man.

[Host, do you want to check your rewards?]

Inside an SUV driven by Arianna, Eiji and all the women currently living in his mansion have plans to hang out together.

So this morning, they went out together. You could call it a date with nine women at once.

Sitting next to Arianna as she drives at a high speed that would terrify the average person—

"Kyaaa! Arianna-san, you’re going too fast!"

"Arianna, slow down! Hey, hit the brakes—there’s a curve up ahead!"

"Wawawa! Arianna-san, please listen to what those two women are saying!"

Ah, correction. Mariya, Ena, and Liliana were still scared as they watched the scenery outside the car window fly by so quickly.

The car they were riding in was also weaving through the streets, passing every vehicle and taking turns without slowing down even a little.

How could they not be afraid of getting into an accident!?

"Ladies, calm down. I already have a driver’s license." Arianna showed them her driver’s license while continuing to press the gas pedal.

Mariya, Ena, and Liliana: That’s not the point!

Their faces turned pale, and they were breaking out in a cold sweat. Mariya started to feel like she was going to throw up; she desperately covered her mouth with both hands.

Erica chuckled, "The three of you are overreacting. We can all trust Arianna’s driving skills."

"Is that because she’s a former professional racer?" Luo Hao asked with a blank expression.

The Martial Arts King certainly wasn’t afraid of being in a car speeding at such a crazy pace.

Still, she remained on high alert, ready to jump out of the car at a moment’s notice if they were about to hit something.

"No, Arianna just likes to drive." Erica replied.

"...." Luo Hao.

Mariya, Ena, and Liliana grew increasingly anxious.

"Wow... So this is what it feels like to ride in a car? Athena-chan, isn’t this fun?" Pandora exclaimed.

"Stop calling me that, Pandora. You’re not my senior." Athena sighed; she was the calmest person in the car.

"Athena-chan, look at that! There’s a guy on a motorcycle who we almost hit."

"Did you hear what I said? Are you deaf?"

Eiji was happy to see his women getting along so well. While he kept stroking Arianna’s thigh. He’d been doing it for a while now.

Arianna bit her lip. She tried to focus on driving while holding back a moan from escaping her mouth. Otherwise, Mariya and the two other women sitting in the back would panic even more.

’Eiji-sama is so perverted! B-But, for some reason, I’m enjoying this... Mhmm!’

She simply spread her legs.

[Perverted host, don’t you want your reward?]

’Ahem! Miss System, of course. Let’s check it out—come on, let’s take a look.’

Eiji’s gaze briefly fell on Arianna’s thighs and the other beautiful women sitting behind her.

Miss System rolled her eyes.

[Ding! Detected that the host has altered the "Campione" plot.]

[Successfully altered 72% of the plot by defeating Luo Hao and making her your woman. You’ve also killed Sun Wukong and the protagonist Godou from the original work.]

[This should be the last reward you can get from this series because you killed the protagonist.]

Damn.

Eiji had forgotten about that.

Killing the protagonist of a series has consequences, just as Miss System said. But it’s okay. There are still plenty of other series out there that can give him rewards.

He doesn’t regret killing Godou and trapping his soul inside his Ultraman action figure. For those of you wondering which Ultraman that is, let me answer...

It’s a blue Ultraman Nexus action figure.

Doesn’t that fit Godou pretty well?

[You’ve also cuckolded Epimetheus by having sex with Pandora right in front of him. The NTR perpetrators must be proud of you.]

’Is that a compliment?’

Miss System ignored her host’s question and continued with the announcement.

[You’ve succeeded in making Pandora your woman. All those actions have altered many plotlines in the original work.]

[Congratulations, host—you’ve obtained the Solomon Character Card (King of Magic from the Fateverse)]

"...?"

Eiji knew which Solomon Miss System was referring to; he had even defeated that man when he was summoned as a Servant of the Avenger class previously.

To be honest, he was weaker than the other character cards he possessed. However, in the world of Campione, Solomon from the Fateverse is a threat no less formidable than the Heretic Gods or even the Last King.

Upon obtaining that character card, he immediately achieved an 81% fusion rate. Eiji wasn’t surprised at all.

Suddenly, he thought of Guinevere.

He checked the upcoming plot using his Future Insight, and the corners of his mouth turned up even higher.

"Eiji-sama, should we take one of the indoor parking spots?" Arianna asked as the car they were riding in arrived at the shopping center.

"No need, let’s just park outside." There was a reason why Eiji said that.

Arianna and the others didn’t know. As they got out of the car and walked through Tokyo’s largest shopping mall, which was packed with a sea of people, their group naturally drew a lot of attention.

Especially the men—they looked at Eiji with envy. After all, he was the only guy in the group. Right now, Erica and Ena were even holding onto his arms from both sides.

"There’s still some time before the movie we picked starts at the theater. Eiji, should we go shopping first? I want to buy some new clothes."

"Sure, you can also help your sisters pick out some nice clothes for them."

Eiji agreed with Erica’s suggestion.

He also asked her to pick out some nice outfits for Luo Hao and Pandora, who, for their own reasons, didn’t really understand women’s fashion these days.

The first one knows quite a bit about fashion, but before she became a woman, she almost always wore a qipao.

The latter is a goddess who has long spent her time in the underworld.

Erica didn’t refuse.

Soon, they split up into several groups because Mariya and the others had other things they wanted to buy with Eiji’s money.

Eiji didn’t mind spending a lot of money on his women. After all, it’s just money. He could replicate money if he wanted to.

[That’s illegal, host.]

’Miss System, you can pretend not to hear what I’m thinking.’

[All right, I won’t report you to the police either.]

Miss System’s joke isn’t funny.

Besides, what police force could possibly put him in jail?

Eiji shook his head. While his group—consisting of him, Ena, and Liliana—headed to the bakery because the beautiful women wanted to eat something sweet.

Erica, Arianna, and the other women also happened to be in a separate area on the other side of the mall to buy Pandora some new mortal clothes.

In one of the slightly less crowded aisles on the upper floor, Athena walked gracefully beside Lucretia. However, Athena’s steps suddenly halted.

"This aura..."

Just like Athena, Lucretia also narrowed her eyes.

They were on high alert because, at that moment, the atmosphere around the shopping aisle instantly froze, replaced by a shimmer of silvery-white magical energy and mist.

The ordinary people there froze, as if they were in a different space and time.

That was the effect of a barrier.

From behind a pillar in the mall corridor, a tall, blonde-haired woman emerged, wearing a dark blue cloak that covered her white knight’s armor.

Lancelot du Lac, the mightiest Steel God and legendary knight who protects the King of the End, had appeared and immediately blocked their path. Unlike other Heretic Gods, whose appearances trigger natural disasters, the appearance of a Steel God like him does not cause such events.

She stepped toward Athena and Lucretia with the dignified stride of a knight.

Lancelot’s right hand rested on the hilt of her sacred spear, her piercing blue eyes staring straight at Athena with a hostile glare.

"At last I have found you, Ancient Goddess of the Earth, Athena," said Lancelot, his voice loud and cold, echoing through the corridor that had suddenly fallen silent. "I am Lancelot du Lac; I have been sent to kill you."

Hearing this, Lucretia stiffened. "Lancelot du Lac? Another God of Steel? And this time, it’s one of the mightiest in the mythology of the knight-protectors."

Again?

Lancelot didn’t know that not long ago, Perseus had come to Athens only to be beheaded by her.

Athena’s expression remained utterly calm and impassive. Instead of feeling threatened, the goddess of wisdom simply folded her arms across her chest, looking Lancelot up and down with a gaze full of contempt.

"Noisy knight," she said coldly, her tone betraying not a hint of fear. "You’ve come at the wrong time, Lancelot. Gods of Steel like you have long since passed their prime. If you’re seeking death like Perseus, my husband will gladly crush your armor into worthless shards."

Hearing Athena refer to someone as her husband, Lancelot’s brow furrowed. A mix of surprise and curiosity filled his heart. "Husband? I don’t recall you having a husband. Of course, not even your husband would be able to protect your life from my divine spear, Athena."

Lancelot didn’t wait any longer. With a speed that sent shockwaves through the mall corridor, she thrust her spear—coated in silvery-white divine energy—toward Athena’s chest. The attack was so fast that it should have been capable of killing a god with a single thrust.

However—

*CRASH!*

A cold smile appeared on Athena’s face. Without shifting a single millimeter from her position, a large black scythe radiating the mist of the night’s darkness suddenly appeared in her hand.

She swung the sickle with one hand, blocking the tip of Lancelot’s divine spear with terrifying precision. The collision created black-and-white ripples that extinguished all the neon lights on the mall’s ceiling.

The hallway where they stood was illuminated only by the divine auras they radiated.

As for Lucretia? She had moved far enough back to watch from behind Athena.

"What?!" Lancelot’s eyes widened.

Her spear, which usually easily eroded and weakened the Earth Goddess’s essence, was effortlessly blocked and began to tremble.

The flow of death energy from Athena’s sickle instead crept upward, staining the silvery sheen of her spear with corrosive black spots. Before Lancelot could pull her weapon back, Athena twisted her body with an almost impossible agility.

The effects of her intimate bond with Eiji (the Master-Servant contract) and a slight boost from the remnants of Perseus’s divinity that she had absorbed the day before made her many times stronger than the version of herself known to the other gods.

*BOOM!*

Athena launched a heel kick imbued with Earth’s gravitational magic straight at Lancelot’s chest. The Knight of Steel was sent flying backward a dozen meters; the legs of her armor scraped across the mall’s marble floor, shattering it into pieces, before she finally managed to steady herself again.

Lancelot was stunned; her chest felt tight as she saw that her sacred white armor was now cracked, bearing blackened marks from the impact. "How is this possible...?! Your power... You’re not supposed to be this strong, Athena! You were supposed to be weakened by my spear and killed easily!"

"You’ve underestimated me. O, mightiest God of Steel, Lancelot." Athena casually hurled a taunt.

Lancelot’s handsome face looked somber; she channeled her skill into her spear to stop the darkness of the night that was consuming her.

She felt annoyed and said, "Shut up! You haven’t won this duel yet, Athena!"

"So we’re dueling? I just realized that."

Athena taunted the blond knight again.

Veins bulged on Lancelot’s forehead.

In the next few seconds, their figures became a blur. They moved at godlike speeds.

*BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!*

Intense clashes occurred one after another in the shopping mall corridor, which had been cordoned off by barriers. Lancelot unleashed all of her best knightly spear techniques, spinning her weapon to create a storm of sharp, silvery slashes. However, every attack from the God of Steel was easily parried by Athena.

Athena moved at high speed. The black scythe in her hand whirled through the air, cutting and splitting every wave of Lancelot’s steel energy. Every time their blades clashed, Lancelot could feel his physical strength steadily eroding, while Athena seemed to grow even more powerful due to her connection through the Master-Servant contract.

"Too slow, Steel Knight," Athena said condescendingly.

With a single, precise parry, Athena deflected Lancelot’s spear thrust toward the marble floor. In that very instant, before Lancelot could regain his fighting stance, Athena lunged forward and swung the hilt of her scythe in a devastating vertical blow, striking Lancelot’s steel helmet squarely at the temple.

*CRACK!*

"Ugh?!"

The blow was so hard that a large crack spread across Lancelot’s helmet. She staggered backward, her vision suddenly blurring from the shock of Athena’s blow. Athena didn’t give her opponent even the slightest opening to catch her breath. She leaped into the air, spun around, and launched a divine-energy-infused heel kick straight at Lancelot’s chest.

*BLAMMMM!*

Lancelot’s pure white armor was shattered into pieces across her chest. Her body was violently hurled through the mall corridor, crashing into a concrete pillar and shattering it, before finally coming to rest, helpless, atop a pile of building debris.

Lancelot tried to raise her trembling hand to retrieve her spear, but her consciousness was already on the verge of fading. Her eyes fixed on Athena, who landed gracefully before her, her heart filled with disbelief.

"H-How can... the power... of the goddess of the earth... be this formidable...?" Lancelot muttered in a broken voice, before her eyes finally closed completely and she fell unconscious.

Athena lowered her black scythe, letting the weapon fade back into the shadows. She stared at Lancelot’s unconscious body with a blank expression.

In the past, she would not have hesitated to kill Lancelot. But now, knowing the kinds of things her husband might like, she paused to think for a moment.

Her gaze fell on Lancelot’s beautiful face, her full breasts, her fair skin, and the curves of her body that would arouse a man’s desire.

The corners of Athena’s lips curled upward. The sound of footsteps came from behind; Lucretia was walking closer. "Athena, you didn’t kill him? Do you have another plan for her?"

"Witch—that’s what Lucretia meant." Athena almost forgot to be friendly to the woman beside her, who was now her sister. "Yes, I suddenly thought that Eiji might like this woman."

"Ah, I see. Fufu... This also serves as a lesson for Lancelot for daring to attack you. We can get Eiji to defile her and make her one of us." Lucretia giggled.

Athena was stunned for a moment.

Lucretia understood; she didn’t argue with what she said. Immediately, she contacted Eiji through the Master-Servant contract. She didn’t know Eiji had been watching their fight for a long time.
