Holy Right : A Multiverse Occultist

Two options, one dangerous, other very safe.

'Dangerous, huh? Then... it will get more interesting, right?'

He was never the one to back from challenges because of danger. 

If so, he would not have 'foolishly' fought with Archangel Michael with the body of a mortal when he had other safer alternatives. 

Because with high risks, comes big rewards. 

He had already made a decision, whether it was Athena's power or Athena herself, he didn't want to give up on either.

Normally this is impossible, but Roy's current situation is very special. It is the time, position and other factors that can make impossible possible.

He pressed his head with his hand, forcibly suppressing the dizziness overturning his brain and looked into goddess's eyes. 

The vertical draconic eyes of the goddess were full of stubbornness. Although she was defeated and even admitted to the clauses of the agreement, the arrogant goddess would never let herself be completely reduced to a prisoner. 

Now, if he chooses the first option, he can now forcibly occupy Athena's body, but it is absolutely impossible to get her heart.

The agreement between the two includes the clause that the defeated party will become winner's possession, but it does not mean that after becoming the other party's property, the 'possession' cannot have other thoughts. 

The victor can dispose the defeated at will, but the defeated's heart may also give birth to the spark of rebellion. 

A person's heart from the point of spirituality has always been very complex, even the most loyal soldier still has the possibility of betraying the leader, let alone the agreement between a Goddess and a Godslayer, that is full of loopholes. 

In the agreement between Roy and Athena, there is no content that the defeated cannot resist the victor, because this clause is so ridiculous to Roy himself. 

When you touch the bottom line that the other party, retaliation is common. He could have tried to leverage the agreement towards his benifit... 

But, to go against the King Of The End and defeat him, Athena, the Strongest Of Earth is an important irreplaceable chess piece. 

And to secure this chess piece, he has to handle this piece with care. 

"Then according to our agreement you are now my possession, Athena!"

Roy wiped the blood from his face and said in a deep voice.

"Yes, according to the agreement, this goddess's body is now your possession, you can do whatever you want to our body, and this goddess's body will cooperate!"

"Although, this goddess's body has no practical sexual experience, but this goddess's wisdom knows everything, and will do everything possible to make you feel content with your 'possession'."

"…Of course, this 'possession' is a snake, you have to be careful of the back handed venomous bites, human. The Womanly Wisdom will use all available opportunities to kill you, so this goddess recommends that it is best for you to kill this goddess and take our power!"

"But, pray, Roy Crowley. Pray, that this goddess's doesn't fulfill the miracle of revival, because we are the Strongest of Earth that is bound to be immortal!"

Athena laid on the ground in relaxation, a provocative smile was etched on her lips. Although she was defeated, her tone and eyes were suffused with mockery. On the contrary, she was more like a victor, like a proud peacock.

This is the true Athena. If just because of an agreement, she becomes servile and flattering, then she is not the Athena, the noble goddess of war and wisdom.

Even if death is near, even if she may lose the 'goddess' position, she will not let go of the arrogance and pride in her heart, this is the true queen of gods!

"Truly, you talk like I'm some sex manic who tricked you into an agreement in order to get your body for my carnal needs."

Roy smiled bitterly. Although he has lived a more indulgent life, he is not a person who has make his goal to conquer every beautiful hole. 

Otherwise, with his current status, among the billion of womens worldwide, there are always countless beautiful women who would willingly jump into bed, either for fame or wealth or any other thing.

"Isn't it so~? Then, which debauched demon king asked this goddess to sleep with him? Which demon king reacted to the this goddess's young body? Which lecherous demon king is after the body of this goddess? Can you answer, human~?"

The corners of Athena's mouth curled up slightly, and the taunting became stronger.

"Is there some circuit switch that comes with age progression? How did a tsundere suddenly became a teasedere..?"

Roy's mouth twitched as he murmured and continued with a 'it is how it is' face:

"There is a difference between being attracted by cuteness and being attracted by beauty. The former has to be carefully raised at home and the later is someone with whom we have to make a home."

"You get my point, right? To make a house a 'home' we need a family, and to do so we need kids, and kids are not given by God, parents have to do the hardwork and 'sacrifice'..."

"Okay, let's not discuss this aspect, let's get down to business. Strongest earth, ugly snake or immortal old witch, I don't care."

Roy said impatiently, this teasing of being treated like a "sex manic" and despised, even people who don't easily take offense will be unhappy in their hearts.

Athena closed her mouth, but looking at the smile on her face, he knew that she was in a much better mood now.

'This goddess has to take the initiative no matter what she does, she is really pride obsessive.'

Roy lips curled in amusement.

"I won't kill you, and I won't do anything to you. I want you to be my subordinate and fight by my side with me!"

Roy made his request.

Athena was stunned, then she out of the blue laughed as her body shook joyfully: 

"This joke is not funny. Godslayer and Heretic God fighting at the same side? You are a godslayer, and this goddess is a God. You think this goddess will really do this? Even if the targeted Gods belong to different myths, they are also the compatriots of this goddess. Now, why should we help you kill our compatriots, human?"

"Let's answer your first question first, it is indeed impossible for the normal Godslayers and Gods to unite, their physical instinct will make them hate each other, not to say that they are fighting side by side, not sneakily stabbing a knife in other's back is already a miracle. But, I am different."

Roy raised his head slightly and asked, "Athena, when you face me, do you have the irresistible impulse that you must kill me?"

Athena was silent for a while. The goddess was disdainful of lying for petty things. She tilted her head and admitted directly: 

"Indeed, the smell that disgusts us gods on you is very weak, and is almost impossible to catch. Although this goddess wants to kill you, it is our own personal thoughts, not the force of inevitable 'fate'."

"…That's why this goddess thinks that you are a very interesting, a very special person. Even if you die, we will still remember you. Well, this goddess suddenly became interested, so let's talk about it. Why should we become an enemy of our compatriots for you?"

Athena is such a casual person, she is just too prideful and will never give up and bow her head, but when she encounters something she is interested in, she is more willful than anyone else.

"From what I know, you are a goddess who has always had strong ties to snakes. Both Athena and Medusa is you, the two snake goddesses, both sharing the same origin, and both bearing the avatar of the frightening Snake, and the Ancient Mother Earth."

"Athena, the goddess who controls the bounty of the earth, and the high subject of faith of countless ancient humans."

"The noble goddess of life and death. God of Death, Athena, who also manifests herself as the owl, crossing between night, and the Underworld. Ruled over death and darkness. Serpent of Mother Earth, Bird of the God of Death, and Womanly Wisdom. You were once the queen, the winged serpent."

Roy suddenly eulogized Athena's great achievements, praising her past glories, but Athena's face was not happy, because she knew that the next words would be absolutely ugly.

"You were the Queen of the Gods. That should be your rightful place, no? As the goddess of life and death, and the great goddess of wisdom. But then came the rebellion against the queen, with the appearance of 'steel', as the men began to rebel, you were driven from the highest seat of the gods."

"All of the males revolted, and together, they overthrew the Queen. Then ultimately Zeus became King of the Gods. The myth was rewritten, and the old queen, Athena, became the king's daughter. And Medusa was reduced to a monster. Thus, the queen of wisdom, the winged serpent, lost her Snake form, becoming merely a beautiful goddess. A beautiful, but tragically empty vessel."

"The Ancient Mother Goddess under you began to degenerate under the new rewritten history, becoming the wives, sisters and daughters of male gods, losing their past glory, and even degenerating into monsters, becoming monsters conquered by heroes!"

"And the Snake, your true form as Mother Earth, was eventually mentioned in tales as a different creature. The winged serpent... in other words, the dragon. The evil dragon the hero defeats in myth is actually none other than the degraded form of the defeated goddess of Mother Earth. Your own tragic story. A fallen Queen. And that, Athena, is who you are."

Every word of Roy pierced Athena's heart like a sharp blade, piercing through her most unbearable past, and then deeply rooted in it, completely digging out her old wounds.

The goddess bit her lips secretly, her face was surging with anger.

"Shut up! Shut your mouth, stop this foul language that makes this goddess disgusted!"

Athena's voice was a bit sharp, like a snake's poisonous hiss.

Roy who had returned the 'favour' in his own 'petty' way stopped his act of aggravating the old wounds, and changed the course of conversation: 

"The Gods hate Godkillers, but Athena, you hate the Heroes of Steel that have servered earth more than the Godslayers! So instead of dying here, isn't it better to join forces with me, you have also seen my power, as long as the two of us join forces, we will be able to retaliate against those heroes of steel, until we cut off the last and the strongest steel."

"…How about it, Athena! Is this reason enough? I promise to give you the respect you deserve until my bottom line is left untouched. Haven't I also been a good host? You should know, no one had the privilege to receive my goodwill to such an extent. Even the oldest Campione was buried in the wilderness of underworld."

Athena opened her lips slightly, her face flashed with surprise, "…you know the last steel, the last king?"

Before he could answer, her eyes flashed in enlightenment, she just nodded calmly and said: 

"Your eyes have the wisdom of past. It's not surprising that you know this... Roy Crowley, your eloquence is good, you moved our heart. Compared to you, the Demon King on Earth, we really hate those 'steel' more that made our mother gods lose their glory and degenerate into monsters, and so this goddess seeks to break the steel!"

Her cold eyes stared directly into Roy's eyes, and her charming face suddenly bloomed like a hundred flowers unfluring at the same time as she smiled mischievously and said: 

"The wisdom of this goddess knows that you have other purposes, but compared to the hatred of 'steel', those this goddess can ignore. Come on, stretch out her hand for this goddess."

Seeing Athena's beautiful smile on her mature face, Roy was also amazed, and after hearing her words, he subconsciously stretched out his hand.

The goddess's fingers grabbed his hand and brought it to her mouth, her moist lips opened as the jaw moved and with her teeth she bit down fiercely.

Roy knew that his idea had succeeded.

Because he made Athena his subordinate, it is equivalent to having all the powers of Athena, than usurping a single authority. 

Roy and Athena have the purpose of fighting the hero of steel and defeating the last king together. Then, with this firm comrade in arms, Roy believes that his budding plan will bear fruit. 

Thus, like this, Roy Crowley, the son of Aleister Crowley, not only got the goddess's powers, but also the opportunity to get her heart and body. Not to forgo any but to get the best of the both.
