After making the necessary preparations, Roy gathered the girls to depart for the world of Campione!

The threat of otherworldly gods loomed over them, so he had to increase his strength.

"Ahem... Rias, Sona, I'm planning to take everyone to the Campione world," Roy announced.

"Campione?" The girls were curious.

The name suggested a world filled with powerful beings.

"Yes, 'Campione!'. In this world, there are gods called Heretic Gods. If you kill one, you inherit its power," Roy explained.

The girls were surprised. Sona's eyes lit up.

She was currently at the peak of High-class and needed a breakthrough to reach Ultimate-class.

She had been envious of Rias, who had already reached that level.

"So you can gain the power of a god by killing it?" Sona murmured, her eyes gleaming with ambition.

"Don't worry, Kaichou, we'll help you kill a god," Tsubaki and the others assured her.

"Sona, don't worry, you'll have your chance," Roy said with a smile.

He was planning to make a big move, hopefully turning everyone into Campiones, or God Slayers.

Heretic Gods varied in strength, but even the weakest were Ultimate-class.

The more powerful ones were Maou-class or even at the Planetary-level.

If his plan succeeded, all his servants would become incredibly powerful.

Having a peerage full of Ultimate-class... the thought made him feel invincible.

Perhaps he could even conquer the world of 'Mondaiji-Tachi' World and create the strongest community there.

"Is everyone ready? We're teleporting now," Roy announced.

"We're ready!"

"Hurry up! I can't wait!"

"Yes, I can't wait to become a Campione!"

Roy activated the teleportation magic, and they vanished.

...

In the world of Campione!, humans had created various mythologies, which gave rise to numerous gods.

These gods were supposed to play their roles in their respective mythologies, maintaining the balance of the world.

But some gods, known as "Heretic Gods," defied their roles.

These Heretic Gods brought disaster upon the world, and as a result, powerful mages capable of defeating them emerged.

Those who killed a Heretic God inherited its power and became a Campione, a God Slayer.

...

On an unknown island, a strange building stood tall.

Its vast hall was empty, lit only by flickering torches, creating an eerie atmosphere.

However, many young girls, dressed in thin clothing, were gathered there.

The oldest were around twenty, while the youngest were barely twelve.

They were praying, their bodies emanating spiritual power, seemingly performing some kind of ritual.

A magic circle glowed before them.

As the magic circle grew brighter, the girls' faces became paler.

But they didn't stop the ritual, enduring the strain on their spiritual power.

Even when some of them fainted from exhaustion, the others continued.

All this was because of a figure standing near the magic circle.

He looked like an elderly, wise gentleman.

But he possessed a wildness, superhuman strength and agility, and a thirst for battle. He was cunning and unyielding.

This was Sasha Dejanstahl Voban, also known as the "Duke Voban."

He was one of the most powerful Campiones.

He was a king among men, a human who had slain gods.

He was arrogant and accustomed to giving orders.

He would do anything to satisfy his desires, even destroy humanity.

And this summoning ritual, which was pushing the young girls to their limits, was his doing.

...

This was four years before the main events of the story.

Voban was conducting a ritual to summon a Heretic God.

But just then, a bright light filled the hall.

Dozens of people appeared.

"Who are you?!" Voban demanded.

It was Roy and the girls.

Having decided to come to this world to claim the Heretic Gods' power, this was their first stop.

Roy looked at Voban, then at the girls performing the ritual, and nodded in satisfaction.

It seemed they had arrived at the perfect time.

"Wretches, state your names, or face death!" Voban roared, his eyes filled with killing intent.

"This guy is annoying. Can I kill him?" Ilulu asked, tugging at Roy's sleeve.

Voban's words had clearly angered her.

"Sure, go ahead. But don't fight here. Take it outside," Roy replied casually, not even bothering to look at Voban.

Voban was just a Maou-class. Ilulu could handle him.

.....

"Kid, you're full of yourself! There's no one in this world bold enough to stand against me!" Voban snarled, his green eyes narrowed.

He was clearly enraged by their dismissive attitude.

"Hmph! I don't have time for you, old man. Let's fight," Ilulu declared, stepping forward.

"Very well. You've successfully angered me!" Voban roared.

"Angry? Good! Let's have a fight then! Hehehe..." Ilulu grinned mischievously.

As a battle maniac, although she was obedient in front of Roy, she was still a ferocious dragon.

Crack!

The ground beneath her feet shattered as she appeared before Voban in an instant.

Before Voban could react, she punched him in the stomach.

BOOM!

Voban was sent flying out of the hall.

"Heeheehee!" Ilulu giggled and chased after him.

Outside, Voban unleashed his powerful aura, a chilling darkness that filled the air.

"Brat, I'll use your life as an appetizer before I hunt that Heretic God! Hahahaha!" he cackled, his eyes fixed on Ilulu with murderous intent.

But Ilulu, a dragon who had lived for tens of thousands of years, was unfazed by his killing intent.

Tohru then appeared and waved her hand.

The three of them were transported to a subspace.

"Roy said we shouldn't damage the temple. Ilulu, finish this quickly," Tohru instructed.

Roy had anticipated that Ilulu might get carried away and cause too much destruction, so he had Tohru intervene.

Now that they were in a subspace, they could fight without worry.

"Okay, okay," Ilulu grumbled.

"What kind of magic is this?" Voban's eyes widened in surprise as he found himself in an unfamiliar environment.

"Don't bother trying to figure it out, old man. You can't escape. Just fight me!" Ilulu taunted, her eyes gleaming with predatory excitement.

She lunged at him.

"You're too careless, brat!" Voban roared, unleashing his powerful magic.

The ground shook, and debris floated in the air as a strange, dark aura enveloped Ilulu.

Voban's eyes glowed green.

"Eh?" Ilulu paused, sensing something strange.

It was the Evil Eye of Sodom, an Authority Voban had usurped from the Roman hero, Horatius Cocles.

Any living creature he looked at would be turned to salt.

However, Ilulu only felt a slight discomfort, then nothing happened.

She charged at Voban again.

"What? It had no effect? How?" Voban was stunned.

Even gods and Campiones would be partially petrified by his Evil Eye. It shouldn't have no effect at all.

But before he could recover from his shock, Ilulu was upon him.

Her claws raked across his chest.

"Aah!" Voban cried out in pain as he was sent flying, two bloody gashes appearing on his chest.

Although the Evil Eye of Sodom seemed powerful, capable of seeing for miles, even through objects, and theoretically able to petrify an entire city, it was mainly a support ability. It wasn't very effective against truly powerful opponents.

"I underestimated you, brat. What are you?" Voban asked, staring at the claw marks on his chest and then at Ilulu's claws with shock.

Humans couldn't have claws like that. What was she?

A Dragon? Or something else?

"Heehee, I'm a Dragon!" Ilulu declared with a mischievous grin as she flew into the air.

She opened her mouth, her flame pouch glowing as she charged an attack.

Then, she unleashed a barrage of fireballs.

Dragon Breath. It was a technique all Dragons possessed.

"A Dragon?" Voban snarled, his anger rising as he unleashed his power.

He summoned a massive skull, over sixty meters tall.

"Wolf of Ragnarok."

This was a new Authority he had usurped from Fenrir, the monstrous wolf of Norse mythology.

It could devour anything, a power derived from Fenrir devouring the sun during Ragnarok.

Ilulu's Dragon Breath was completely absorbed by the giant skull.

"Damn it! It devoured my flames! Then have another one!" Ilulu roared, frustrated.

She opened her mouth wide, gathering a massive amount of magic power. She was preparing a powerful attack.
