Roy with twelve holy white, flaming wings on his back and a sacred halo on his head, flew across the sky, and landed on the deck of the luxury yacht at a speed that surpassed the limit of human response.

The flame-like, holy white wings retracted. Before, Roy used two of the twelve wings to shield Erica from the external impact in the state of 'Graced Wings', so Erica didn't have to bear the impact of fast speed.

As the wings made of flames turned into tiny particles of light and disappeared, the halo on Roy's head also blew out, and he changed from the 'Angelic Physiology' back into the Human Physiology.

He gently lowered Erica's delicate body, the beautiful Italian blonde girl's face seemed to be flushed with fever, and the heartbeat was also accelerating.

In the past, Erica's status in Copper Black Cross was equivalent of that of a princess, which boy would dare to even touch her?

After all, Erica is only a fourteen year old girl. Although she has developed a little too early, it is also the age when girls are filled with fantasies of their Prince Charming, and she is now embraced by Roy, who is 'similar' in age to her.

Because of the tears in her battle dress, even the porcelain, white skin of the young girl who has never been touched was rubbed against Roy's hand, making the noble awe-inspiring knight feel more ashamed.

"Well, the decision to keep this yacht as far away as possible from Ponza Island was really correct, otherwise we would have to fly all the way to Italy."

Roy's mental age is over forty years, and he is not an only-fantasy otaku that hasn't even touched a girl's hand.

He will not feel embarrassed or flustered about any ambiguous behavior with the opposite sex.

The staff on the yacht were not ordinary people, but elite mages and knights sent by Copper Black Cross as the King's entourage.

After seeing someone suddenly dropping on the deck, they immediately drew out their weapons.

But, when they saw that the person is Roy, their king; they immediately put down their weapons, and expressions on their face became both respectful and fearful.

Although they did not see the specific scene of Roy and Metatron's battle from this yacht.

They were able to see the annihilation of the Ponza Island as well as the howling tsunami, the frightening blast in the end; moreover, the still beserk mana flow made these mages and knights very scared.

Now that their princess seems to be very close to the King, they didn't want to the 'fly in the ointment', they looked at each other and bowed at their king; and retreated quietly.

"King! Please allow Erica to go and freshen up first, and then Erica will be back again to be King's service. My current appearance is really unsightly to appear in front of you."

Erica took a deep breath, suppressed the shyness in her heart, and performed a knight's salute.

"Now that you mention it, I might also need to tidy up a bit."

Roy glanced at his clothes. The cardinal's robe was enchanted with protection magic glyphs. It wasn't wrinkled or dirty, the damage done during the fight had already self-repaired. The sea water was already dried.

However, when his spirit travelled to Pandora's domain, his body fell into the sea and was soaked in salty water, so Roy's body also smelled unpleasant.

"Then... I will serve the King first in cleaning up, and then I will go and clean up after serving the King."

"Serve? What's there to serve? Is it taking off your clothes in the bathroom, using your youthful body to make me relax, my 'would do everything' personal knight?"

Roy laughed suddenly and teased Erica.

Erica was less shy and more shocked at Roy's words. She did not expect that Roy, who had always been cold and indifferent, would tease with her like some teenager.

Could it be that she has seen one of the hidden sides of the King, so how many sides are still unknown to her?

The heart of the girl who became a great knight based on her talent became confused, and even her usual sharp mouth became a little stuttered.

"....King, please be a little bit more reserved... Of course it is not that I don't want to, no, I mean it's not like I want to go to bed or something. It's not a knight's task... but if you really want me to do this, I hope you can give me the my stature!"

After all, Erica was not like her good friend Liliana, she would lose the ability to think and speak because of her shyness. She calmed down quickly and even asked calmly.

She also knew that when she became Roy's subordinate in the name of his personal knight, if Roy, her king, had ideas on her, she would not be able to escape his hands, she was so confident about her beauty.

But surrendering her body just like this is definitely not what Erica wants, she not one of those girls who mix with guys for fun, she is from a noble, Italian mage family, and she cannot have a unnamed relationship with anybody.

Erica's character is like this. She thinks and solves problems in a way that maximizes her benefits.

After knowing she has nowhere to escape, she even dared to use her body as a means to gain more benefits.

This woman is a bit too shrewd, so sometimes it can be very annoying, but it cannot be denied that she is faithful in fulling her promises, once you gain her trust she will be ready to wholeheartedly aid you in your cause, so it's hard for people to really hate her.

"Ah, I'm kidding, Erica, don't take it seriously."

Roy condensed the laughter on his face, and became calm and cold again.

That sudden change in temperament made Erica a little apprehensive.

When she saw Roy acting like a normal teenager, she relaxed a bit and said the sentence not without properly framing her words, but King ultimately denied her.

Could it be that the King looked down on herself and thought she was not attractive enough?

Or did the King felt that she was not qualified enough to be in any kind of relationship with him?

Under the complicated mood, Erica somehow said with a little disappointment:

"...Then, please excuse my insolence, king can go to clean up first."

"No, you should go Erica, I'm not in a hurry..."

After a pause, Roy suddenly grabbed Erica's arm and looked at the red steam burns on her white skin. He gently brushed with his fingers and said warmly:

"...does it hurts?"

Roy's sudden coldness and sudden gentleness made Erica's mood even more messy. She raised her brows slightly and said:

"...Compared to the training I received to become a Great Knight, these burns are nothing, it's just that my mana is exhausted, so I cannot perform a healing spell."

"I will apply some alchemy medicine in a while and wait until the my mana gets restored, I will cast a healing spell to cure it."

Hearing Erica's indifferent speech about the pain, Roy did not speak, but chanted the incantation in a low voice, and then, in Erica's surprise, he directly performed a spell to heal all the blisters that appeared on her arm.

"Unlike other Campiones, I am still very interested in magic. This is the first time I have casted a healing spell, it seems that the effect is rather good."

"Keep care of yourself. It is better for girls to cherish themselves."

Roy's palm gently rubbed on Erica's slender arm, and then said:

"...Go Erica."

"Understood, King."

Erica hugged her injured right arm with her left hand in confusion as if she hadn't recovered and walked to her room on the yacht, with messy thoughts in her mind.

When the yound girl's back disappeared from his sight, Roy flickered his hair and laughed at himself:

"...Although I was not shy when facing girls before, I am not someone who can speak gentle, comforting words. Why have I suddenly became so talented?"

"...Is this because of the genes that I inherited from Aleister Crowley? I lived with Laura, she was the only girl similar to my age in London, so this talent didn't get the chance show it's light to the world before..."

"...Lola."

Roy took a sigh of 'exhaustion' and walked to his room.

The so-called noble ladies and gentlemen of twentieth century is not his life anymore, maybe, he was destined to see the wonder of endless worlds.

As the devil king on the ground, even if he collects all the beauties of the earth, nobody can say anything.

'If one day I really become that kind of scum who can plays with girl's heart at will, it must not be my fault, it must be Aleister Crowley's genes, because Aleister is the expert in deceiving women's feelings, I'm just continuing my father's business.'

Roy quickly put aside the messy thoughts, not entangled with these things anymore.

Glory, wealth and women come and go, true love is hard to find, pursuit of knowledge and power is eternal.

Roy instead focused on the new Divine Authority he gained by beheading Metatron—
