…

Kasugano Haru was incredibly frustrated. deeply frustrated.

Goddess Athena had left three days ago, saying she was returning to the Mediterranean to prepare for her plan to rewrite mythology.

With Haru’s typical “modern playboy” personality, he wasn’t about to let the goddess go so easily, especially after they had just confirmed their relationship. It was the perfect time for some newlywed bliss.

However, the silver-haired girl sleeping peacefully on his arm was the primary reason for his frustration. He had been entangled with Kasugano Sora for three days straight, paying his “dues” each night. Though he enjoyed the process immensely, there was a limit.

A proper Devil King, no, a future God King, should be enjoying the spoils of victory, flirting with one while eyeing another, all while living a life of luxury and indulgence. That was a God King’s duty.

Just a little longer. Once Sora lets her guard down, I’ll sneak over to the two knights next door for some fun.

Just then, an owl with brown-black feathers flew towards the master bedroom window from afar. Flapping its large wings, it landed on the windowsill and transformed into the shadowy figure of a young woman. Sensing the familiar power, Haru allowed the light-formed girl to move freely. She floated towards him and kissed him, conveying the goddess’s affectionate greetings.

Later, in the Kasugano residence’s dining room, Haru held a sleepy Sora in his arms as they enjoyed a late breakfast.

Across the table sat the two knights who had come from Italy: Liliana and Erica.

Today’s breakfast had been prepared by Liliana. The silver-haired knight seemed to be quite skilled in cooking, Thanks to her, they were enjoying soup dumplings and a special multi-grain soy milk. However, the most delectable sight was the beautiful young woman herself.

Erica, wearing a pink silk robe, yawned sleepily, shifting her posture to reveal glimpses of her smooth, jade-like skin and a tantalizing hint of cleavage. Even Sora, still half-asleep, tightened her grip on Haru’s thigh at the sight.

In contrast, Liliana still wore her Bronze Black Cross uniform. She kept her head down, her neck slightly flushed, occasionally glancing at Haru. Judging by her expression, she was probably imagining some rather risqué scenarios. She was so easy to read; her thoughts were practically written on her face.

“So, Haru, what sparked your interest in visiting Naples?” Erica asked, sipping her soy milk, her words slightly muffled.

“Well, it’s like this. I received a message from Athena. She insisted I come over for some urgent business. So, I thought, why not take everyone on a trip to Naples? Sora, you have to believe me; it’s really official business,” Haru quickly explained to Sora, who was pouting in his arms. Her initial 30-degree pinch on his thigh escalated to an inhuman 720-degree twist.

“You just want to see Liliana and me in our swimsuits, don’t you, you scoundrel?” The mischievous Erica added fuel to the fire, as if afraid Sora wasn’t jealous enough.

As for Liliana, she was already seeing stars, practically fainting at the mention of swimsuits.

…

In Italy, on the eastern slopes of Mount Vesuvius, a large archaeological team of about 100 people was busy excavating.

A young Asian man, speaking broken Italian, tried to persuade the Old professor leading the team.

The young man had ordinary, but pleasant features. Though slightly plump, his physique suggested underlying strength, likely from years of archaeological fieldwork. “Professor, are you sure there are Roman ruins here? We’ve been digging for three days, and all we’ve found are animal remains and fossilized feces!”

The white-haired professor wiped the dirt from his face. Professor Yang, He retorted in fluent Italian, “(Bffa!) Liu, you’re just an intern, and I’m the leader of this archaeological team. The funding and plan for this expedition were decided by me. You should be doing your job instead of complaining to me.”

After speaking, the professor hurried off to direct the other team members.

“Quick, dig over here! Use the shovel! Harder! Put some muscle into it!”

“I feel the guidance of Zeus! There must be a world-shaking archaeological discovery here!”

Liu spat in the professor’s direction. “World-shaking? I heard you bought your professorship with $100,000. What skills do you have? It’s the same everywhere, even abroad. Money can buy you a diploma.”

Liu picked up the shovel beside him and thrust it into the ground. Snap!

 The shovel broke. “What the…?!”

Just then, Professor Yang turned around and saw the corner of something protruding from the small mound of dirt. “That’s it!”

Despite his advanced age, the professor sprinted towards Liu with the speed of Usain Bolt. “Move! Get me the small trowel! And the brushes! Two of them! No, five! Recorder! Get over here! We have a discovery! Where’s the camera? Bring the camera immediately!”

After several minutes of careful excavation, a stone tablet, five meters high and three meters wide, was completely unearthed.

Professor Yang examined the tablet closely, holding a fragment that had broken off during the excavation. “It seems to be ancient Roman script… Get a scholar who specializes in this over here. And run a dating test on this fragment.”

Liu approached the professor, his hands rubbing together ingratiatingly. “Professor…”

Professor glanced at Liu, and in that single glance, the old man understood his intentions. “You’re a full-time employee now. Sign the contract later. I’ll include your name in the report.”

“Thank you, Professor!” Liu’s face lit up with joy. With this job and the report, he would finally have the confidence to propose to his girlfriend’s family.

A translation expert hurried over. As time passed, the text on the stone tablet was gradually translated.

“The Goddess heeded the God King’s teachings, and with the help of the Queen, obtained the sacred shield and ventured into the hidden realm to challenge Medusa…”

Professor’s eyes widened with excitement as he looked at the translated text. “Indeed! This is a world-shaking discovery! A brand new ancient pantheon, discovered by me!”

On Mount Vesuvius, a young goddess watched the human drama unfolding at the archaeological site, a captivating smile playing on her lips.
