The black art that Epimetheus and I left behind...

The sacred birth of an illegitimate child,

shrouded in darkness, born of a fool and a witch...

A secret rite of usurpation, only possible through the sacrifice of a god...

In short, all conditions have been met,

a gift from the Heavens.

What are you talking about?

Well, to put it simply,

the sacrificing of your life, in order to slay Verethragna,

has succeeded.

I killed him?

Who are you?

The all-giving woman, Pandora.

You will be reborn as a Campione.

The God-Slayer, the King of Kings, the Campione.

Oh, no!

It's been a week.

I defeated Verethragna, and became the God-Slayer, the Campione.

For no apparent reason, I became the center of attention,

was forced to test my abilities against other Campione,

and finally came back here, to Japan.

I have no clue what either the Campione or demon king things are about,

but at least I'm finally-

Hey, Godou...

Could you get me a cappuccino?

Why are you here?

Hurry up.

I don't like it unless it's blistering hot.

Put some clothes on already!

Godou Kusanagi is the Campione!

"Campione" is the title given to those who succeed in killing a god.

He is the King of Kings.

He is a demon that cannot be controlled by anyone.

This is the story of a young man who has become a Campione

and the women surrounding him.

The Landscape with a King

So when you two first met,

you didn't get along at all.

That's right.

Then, let me guess... You didn't know Erica had come to Japan?

That's right.

And actually, you're unhappy with the way things turned out.

Have I said this right?

That's right.

Here you go, Ms. Erica.

Thank you, Arianna.

It sure doesn't look that way.

It's true! Believe me, Shizuka!

I don't know what's going on,

but her attitude toward me completely changed all of a sudden!

Completely changed?

Yeah, completely.

That's quite rude of you, Godou.

I just feel like accepting your love now, that's all.

When did I do anything to make you think I like you?

You did.

We shared a bed at Lucrezia's house,

and the very next day we shared a hot bacio.

Bacio?

In Japanese, that would be "kiss."

Oh, really?

Don't say things she'll misunderstand!

That was because we were fighting a god!

A god?

N..No! A god?

She wouldn't believe me if told her.

But it's true that we shared a kiss, is it not?

N..No!

You're purposely twisting the facts...

I told you to put on some clothes!

I'm wearing some now.

Or are you interested in what's under the clothes?

If that's what you want, I don't mind, Godou.

Calm down.

This is a trap.

Purge yourself of emotion.

Yes, purge everything.

But maybe a little peek first...

Brother, you wanna have a little one-to-one up on the roof?

Shizuka, we don't have a roof you can go up to-

No talking back!

Yes, ma'am...

Freaking Shizuka...

Yo, what's the matter? I saw her in the teachers' lounge, and she's so pretty.

A she-devil decided to drop by this morning. I saw her in the teachers' lounge, and she's so pretty.

She ruined my relationship with my sister. I saw her in the teachers' lounge, and she's so pretty.

She ruined my relationship with my sister. Really?

The worst person, huh? She's got a great figure.

A she-devil, huh? I was really surprised.

Oh yeah, did you hear that we're getting a transfer student?

I don't really care.

Sounds like she'll be here today.

They say she's Italian, very pretty, and of noble heritage.

You didn't even react!

I'm seeing it again...

I gave you the key to unlock the Golden Sword through that kiss.

Because of that, you were able to use the sword, Godou,

striking Verethragna with a finishing blow.

Splendid...

Splendid, my good warrior.

Verethragna...

You are a god-slayer who has taken the God of Victory's Authority.

Remain stronger than any other!

Remain undefeated until the day we fight again!

I never wanted to steal a god's power.

Why did Erica come all the way to Japan?

You said she transferred from Italy?!

That's a slow reaction!

All right, attention please.

I will now introduce our transfer student to you.

Hi, everyone, buon giorno!

My name is Erica Blandelli.

There is something I must explain to all of you first.

I have already promised my future to someone.

To that person there, to Godou Kusanagi.

U..Uh...

Now, we can be together all the time, Godou.

I couldn't possibly think of sitting anywhere other than beside Godou Kusanagi.

I know I'm being selfish, but we love each other,

and I hope that you will understand.

Okay.

Wh..What are you doing?

I think it's obvious.

I'll be in Japan for a while.

Oh, yeah, I rented an apartment.

I'll show you where it is later.

W.. Wait...

Godou, I can't believe you.

All this time you pretended to be unpopular with the ladies...

...but you found yourself a girl first.

Looks like you tricked us.

A hot Italian chick...

That wouldn't even happen in an anime!

You're not getting away with this!

You've got it wrong!

No, they've got it all right.

The warmth of your skin...

Warmth?

E..Erica, wait, don't say anything-

I think it's better to tell everyone exactly what happened!

Godou and I have already spent a night together-

That's why I told you...

Wh..Who are you?

My name is Yuri Mariya.

A seventh Campione has been born...

How extremely interesting.

Do you have more information about the divine instrument?

Yes!

We believe it to be in Rome,

but its exact location is...

Please do not disappoint me, Liliana Kranjcar.

I apologize!

This is the Dead Servant,

one of Duke Voban's Authorities.

There is not much time before the Prophecy of the Starless Night.

I'm really sorry.

I got close to you all of a sudden.

N..No!

I'm the one who made the mistake.

Also, the stuff that Erica girl said wasn't true at all.

You don't have to believe her.

You know what's going on already, don't you?

Huh? What are you talking about?

I am fully aware that the anger of a violent demon king,

your anger, will not be tamed simply by killing me.

But I beg you to please punish me alone and no one else.

Uh, I...

Please, I ask you once more.

Uh, well...

It seems as if you're troubling the King, Ms. Yuri.

Wh..Who are you?

Amakasu, from the Committee for the Compilation of True History.

Nice to meet you, Seventh Campione.

I guess you could call us the governmental body that

handles individuals related to magic within Japan.

When an incident occurs that involves a god or magic,

we are the organization that investigates and deals with the matter.

Princess shrine maidens, like Ms. Yuri, assist us.

So this morning, I didn't accidentally grab her,

it was Mariya who...

That's correct.

We are terribly sorry for that.

As you are a king,

we desperately wanted to establish contact with you.

Ah, but please don't be angry with her.

I'm the one who requested that she do that.

Sorry for the wait.

I apologize for what happened.

Just stop apologizing.

I don't consider myself a king at all.

It seems the Seventh King is a bit different than the one you know.

But...

It makes me uncomfortable when people speak to me so formally.

Couldn't you talk to me like a normal friend?

I couldn't...

Then, how about at least using my name?

Yes, if you insist, Ku..Kusanagi.

Thanks.

So, what did you want to talk to me about?

Oh, I wanted to inform you

about Erica Blandelli and the Copper Black Cross.

I'm back!

Brother!

Oh, that smells good.

Today-

You know, Mariya's the famous, cool beauty who's part of the Tea Club!

She's the center of admiration for all the girls in our middle school!

She isn't someone you'll ever make any headway with!

What are you talking about?

Everyone at school's talking about it!

They're saying you attacked Mariya!

That's nonsense!

There isn't a shred of truth in that!

Really?

Even if you're telling the truth, the whole school is talking about

how flirty you are with Erica.

I'm tired of talking about that.

The Red Devil?

That's right.

In Italian, Diavola Rossa.

Even at a mere sixteen years of age,

her alluring eyes were said to steal a man's heart in an instant.

Her unparalleled figure was said to ignite a man's hidden desires,

and her wonderfully clear voice is said to be unforgettable from the second you hear it.

And she's never let a man lay a single finger on her.

So, what does she want with me?

Yes, I've been wondering the same thing.

What happened to make her SO crazy about you?

The only thing that comes to mind...

That you're a Campione?

What does that mean, then?

The Copper Black Cross is attempting to use her to bring him into their organization.

To put it simply, they're trying to seduce him.

I guess that's what's going on.

She didn't really seem like someone who'd do that kind of thing though.

Do what?

Why are you here?

We love each other.

Of course we'd need to spend some time together.

I can't believe you disappeared after school ended, too-

Go home! Actually, you're breaking and entering!

Oh? I got permission from your sister to come in.

Although, I told her I was here to give you your notebook.

You know...

If you're after something, you should just tell me.

After something?

I don't know who ordered you to do what,

but you shouldn't try to seduce someone you don't even like.

I see.

So that's what you think, Godou.

I understand.

Then, let's spend one last day together.

I'll show you...

exactly how I feel.

When someone says they want to spend a day with you,

you usually just chat at a nearby café, or something like that.

That's right.

Or maybe you go see a movie,

or go to the beach.

Why...

did I have to come back to Italy?!

But not even a day has passed.

See? It's still three in the afternoon.

By now, the date in Japan has been different for some time.

So where's Erica?

It seems Ms. Erica's meeting is taking longer than expected.

She'd like you to wait here.

Anyway, I have some work to do...

Huh? I have to wait here alone?

I was trying to not return for a while...

Are you the God-Slayer?

An outlander...

The same as myself.

You're a god?

What will you do?

Right now, I wish to retake the Snake.

Therefore, I do not feel it inevitable that we fight.

However, if that is what you wish,

I shall accept that challenge with all that I have.

Sorry, but I'm not here for that.

I don't know about any of the other Campione though.

Lethargy...

Understood.

Then, I shall take my leave.

But God-Slayer, you are a liar.

Huh?

Someone who would not enjoy fighting me

could never have become a god-slayer.

What the...

Huh?

What's wrong?

Oh, it's just you, Erica.

You're the Seventh Campione...

Godou Kusanagi, correct?

A pleasure to meet you.

Who are these people?

People from the Magicians' Society, who represent Italy.

They insisted on meeting you.

They wanted to see how strong you are.

Lion of Steel...

And he who begets you, the Lionheart...

Heed the oath made by Knight Erica Blandelli!

That which is the essence of battle, reveal yourself in my hands!

It appears it's time for a duel.

Cuore di Leone!

That's a real sword!

That's my Godou.

What are you trying to pull?

I already told you.

I want to see how strong you are.

Who uses a real sword to test someone's strength?

I have no choice.

A real fight is necessary to draw out your power.

Cuore di Leone, I entrust the battlefield to you!

Lion of Steel, rip him apart!

Bore through him! Crush him in your jaws!

Should I run?

No, I wouldn't make it in time!

Superb!

What power...

That is the super-strength of Verethragna's second avatar, the Bull.

What speed...

The power of the seventh avatar, the Bird of Prey.

There are still eight more.

It's true that there aren't many Campione with as many abilities as he has.

But there are also conditions for the activation of each avatar.

For example, the White Horse of Fire can only be used against normal people,

and the Golden Sword cannot be activated against an enemy

before enough is known about them.

You can't win just by running away like that!

I know that...

Godou, rogue gods aren't so nice

that they'll let you get away with what I am here.

Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani!

Lord, for it is afternoon, and I call out to you,

yet you do not answer.

For at night, there is also only silence!

This is...

That which becomes my strength, save me.

Save my soul from the sword!

The Golgotha Words of Power!

How reckless!

You fell for it.

Why do you think I purposely got hit by the Lion of Light?

Purposely?

Because I wanted to make you stand where you're standing now!

I won't be able to hold back!

Figure out some way to run away!

The Boar!

Fly, Boots of Hermes!

The power of the Boar, that which can trample anything.

You can only use each avatar once a day.

Think about when you use them.

Is that good enough to concede victory to me?

It wasn't very elegant, but you pass nonetheless.

I praise you for that.

That's why you're my Godou.

Cocky, aren't we?

What do you think?

John Pluto Smith,

the Holy Ragou,

the Black Prince,

Madam Aisha...

Lord Salvatore Doni and Duke Voban...

And Godou Kusanagi...

I understand Erica's desire to bet on the new king.

I as well.

Then, it is decided.

There's not much time before Princess Alice's Prophesy of the Starless Night.

We shall entrust the divine instrument to him.

It seems they've accepted you.

What are they talking about?

Perfect timing.

Since you've already got me on the ground,

would you like to share a bacio to celebrate?

Already got...

D..Don't be silly!

You were looking at a lady with passion in your eyes,

and then you went so far as to get on top of her.

Why don't you take responsibility for your actions?

D..Don't say things that people will misunderstand!

I've already said that I don't feel that way about you!

You're going on about that again.

You just can't be honest, can you-

I'm not joking; I'm serious here.

Now, tell me what you're really after.

That was the promise, right?

You're right.

Then, I'll tell you.

As a knight, I've made all my decisions thus far based on my own convictions.

I've never acted out of deceit or because someone ordered me to.

I'm quite a prideful woman.

Do you really think I would suck up to you simply because I can use you?

Then why...

It's because I'm truly in love with you.

Not because you are a Campione,

or because someone ordered me to do so.

B..But this is so sudden...

Eventually, you'll understand.

I am the only one who can be your partner.

Those alluring eyes of hers can steal a man's heart in an instant.

Her unparalleled figure can ignite a man's hidden desires,

and her wonderfully clear voice is unforgettable.

Look at this.

What is that?

At that time,

I was still unaware that the fate of the world rested on that medal.

CAMPIONE!
