Anime Crossover: My Devil's Crystal Palace

Chapter 57 Pandora, Subordinates

The sky, the ground, and everything around were all pure white.

However, some people still managed to paint a beautiful picture.

A man wearing a floral shirt was resting his head on the lap of a girl who looked to be only ten years old.

Such a scene creates color in the pure white space.

The girl stroked the boy's hair, waiting for him to wake up.

This young man was Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao's eyes twitched, and then she slowly opened them.

What came into view was a baby-faced girl with purple hair in pigtails. She was very happy to see Ye Xiao wake up.

"You're awake, my dear child."

Ye Xiao was also brought back to her senses by her words.

"This is......"

"The realm of immortality, my child~"

The girl answered Ye Xiao's questions.

The Realm of Immortality, a Purple-Haired Girl?

Ye Xiao sat up and looked at the somewhat familiar girl in front of him.

Ye Xiao remembered who she was and was about to say it when the girl in front of him pretended to be shy and said...

"Honey, please don't look at Mommy like that, it's a little embarrassing~"

thump~

A crisp sound.

Ye Xiao delivered a karate chop to her head.

"Who's your child, Pandora!" Ye Xiao said irritably.

Pandora covered her head and said in a wronged tone, "Oh dear, why are you being so fierce? Can't you be gentler with Mommy?"

But then she cheered up again.

"But you know Mommy's name, and Mommy is very happy too~"

That's right, the girl is Pandora.

Unlike the disobedient gods, she is a true deity.

A woman who gives everything.

She is also the mother of the god-killers; whenever someone kills a god, whether injured or not, their soul will enter the realm of the immortals to see her.

She will help them consolidate their acquired power, heal their wounds, and thus become god-killers.

Ye Xiao glanced at her, then curiously looked around. This Undying Domain was indeed pure white.

But now he's more curious about why he, a demon, is here.

"Why have I, a demon, come here?"

Pandora blinked, then said playfully.

"Because it's a secret~ After all, you're a special child in my eyes~"

Okay... I didn't say anything.

Looking at this space, Ye Xiao looked at Pandora and asked, "How do I get out?"

"Honestly, this is the first time I've seen you leave without even chatting with me. It really hurts my feelings. And now you won't even call me 'Mom'."

Pandora was somewhat angry about Ye Xiao's situation and kept muttering to herself.

Looking at Pandora in front of him, Ye Xiao couldn't bring himself to say it. "You should at least have a maternal glow," she thought.

"Okay, how do I get out?"

"What a naughty child," Pandora said somewhat disapprovingly, but still earnestly, "You'll have to wait until Mommy gives you a firm grip on power, okay?"

"Okay, thank you for your help."

"Hmm~ Well, what can I do? I'm your mother~"

Hearing Pandora's words, Ye Xiao refrained from going up and delivering another chop.

The two of them sat facing each other like that.

"Congratulations to my most special child for defeating Vereslana and Mercado in battle..."

Ye Xiao listened as Pandora explained the process.

After a while, Pandora looked at Ye Xiaodao.

"You will return as Campione, the god-slayer, the king of kings, Campione."

As she spoke, Pandora kissed Ye Xiao's forehead.

... ... ... ...

The battle between the demons and the disobedient gods has ended.

The area was in complete disarray.

Ye Xiao stood in the sunlight with her eyes closed, and the wounds on her body healed rapidly.

Erica was walking towards him from not far away.

At this moment, Erica looked at Ye Xiao with excited and passionate eyes.

This newly born king is the seventh king in the world.

Moreover, this king is special and unique.

Since he accomplished the work of killing gods in the form of a demon, and also obtained the authority of a disobedient god.

This has never happened before in history.

But now this rule has been broken by a demon.

It's simply unbelievable.

When he defeated the disobedient god in his demon form, Ye Xiao had already surpassed all demons, including the four great demon kings of the underworld.

Similarly, he can also be among the top few in the world's strongest people.

Erica had already come up behind Ye Xiao, her burning gaze undiminished.

Everyone admires the strong, and she was no exception.

If Ye Xiao agrees, Erica Blantri is willing to become his subject, or rather, fortunate enough to become his subject!

Now...

Looking at Ye Xiao's back, Erica knelt on one knee and performed the highest-level knightly salute to Ye Xiao.

"Your Majesty, I, the knight Erica Brantelli, offer you my highest respect and courtesy. If you will accept me, I will become your loyal subject, follow in your footsteps, and fight for you."

Erica's voice was firm, her eyes filled with enthusiasm and anticipation.

After a long while... Ye Xiao remained silent.

Erica did not get up, remaining kneeling on one knee behind Ye Xiao, and she looked up at him.

This is a test for the king.

Yes! This must be the king testing himself.

At this moment, Ye Xiao slowly opened his eyes, feeling the power of the authority within his body. This feeling was amazing.

Thunder in the left hand, storm in the right.

Add to that the ten incarnations of the God of War, and it's fantastic!

However, feeling the intense gaze behind him, Ye Xiao turned around and saw Erica kneeling in front of him on one knee.

Seeing Ye Xiao turn around, Erica lowered her head again and spoke once more.

"Your Majesty, the knight Erica Brantelli offers you her highest respect and courtesy. If you will accept me, I wish to become your loyal subject and follow in your footsteps!"

Seeing Erica's burning gaze, Ye Xiao smiled.

"Even if I'm a demon, does it matter?"

"I am different from other god-killers. They were once human, but I am a demon."

Erica raised her head without hesitation, looking firmly at Ye Xiao.

"My king, I have been here since birth for this moment. In my eyes, strength is everything. You killed a god with the body of a demon. This feat has transcended the boundaries of race. I follow a powerful king, and you are the king I have chosen. Whether you are a demon or anything else, nothing can change my determination to follow you."

Ye Xiao looked at Erica without saying anything, while Erica waited for Ye Xiao's answer.

For human forces like Erica, serving the Demon King is an inherent duty.

After a long silence, Ye Xiao spoke.

"Human, state your name and swear an oath once more!"

At that moment, Erica's previously dejected eyes regained their light.

She raised her head, looked at Ye Xiao, and spoke solemnly again.

"Your Majesty, I, Erica Brantri, once again offer you my highest respect and courtesy. I wish to become your subject and follow in your footsteps!"

Ye Xiao nodded.

"Erica, I accept your request! Get up."

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty!"

After Erica finished speaking, she also stood up.

However, because she had been kneeling for too long, her legs suddenly lost strength, and Erica swayed and fell to the ground.

Ye Xiao reacted quickly and caught her.

When their eyes met, Erica's face instantly turned red; she hadn't expected to have such close contact with the king.

"Thank you... thank you, Wang."
