章 34: Variant Campione part 1
"More~More~"
"Ha!"
"Yes! You can do it. You're almost there..."
"Moree~!"
"Hnng!"
"Ugh!..998....999… " Asahi grunted, his muscles burning with exertion, pushing through the final moments of his daily training.
"One more push, Asahi. Let's go!" Tet's voice rang out, cheerful and encouraging. She stood beneath Asahi's foot, casting a gravity spell to add an extra challenge while he did his handstand push-ups.
"1...000!" Asahi collapsed onto the grass, gasping for breath, a triumphant smile on his face.
He lay there for a moment, letting the exhaustion wash over him. His heart pounded in his chest, but a sense of accomplishment lingered, pushing away the fatigue.
He felt the warm flame sensation surrounding him.
The air around him seemed to hum, and the burning ache in his muscles slowly dissipated, replaced by a warm, soothing sensation. His body was recovering—faster than it ever had before.
"Good work for today, Master," Amaterasu's voice came, calm and serene. She stood nearby, watching with quiet approval. Her golden eyes gleamed, her presence radiating warmth.
She stepped forward, offering him a towel with a graceful gesture. "You've pushed yourself hard. Let me help ease your muscles."
"Thanks, Amaterasu," Asahi replied, gratefully accepting the towel.
"It's my duty, Master," she said, her voice soft but firm. "To heal and guide you, as a servant should."
Asahi glanced at her, his brow furrowing. "You don't need to be so formal. I'm still getting used to calling me 'Master'," he chuckled, but there was no mistaking the deep respect in her tone.
Her eyes softened just slightly. "I understand, Master. But until you accept your place, I shall continue in my role."
He sighs slightly and wipes out the sweat from his face, looking up at the sky.
The clouds were soft and billowy, and the sun cast a gentle warmth over the estate.
It had been two days since they arrived at Lucretia's home, and things were beginning to settle after the chaos of their battles.
Amaterasu, the goddess of the sun, had officially joined their group, and her presence had brought both strength and a certain sense of calm to Asahi's life.
Following the chaotic events, everything was more or less getting settled in these incidents.
Asahi apologized to Lucretia for any trouble caused.
To his relief, she graciously accepted, understanding the extraordinary circumstances.
When Lucretia wanted to voice her concerns, Asahi didn't explain; instead, he showed something.
The goddess suddenly appeared at his side with a brilliant, divine presence on her.
Lucretia instinctively bowed when she felt a deep connection due to her lineage as a descendant of the earth goddess Miko.
Amaterasu acknowledged Lucretia's gesture and, looking at his master, understood his intention, raised her hand to touch his shoulder.
The radiant flames didn't burn; instead, they brought a wave of healing energy that washed over Lucretia, rejuvenating her magic and lifting her spirit.
She watched, mesmerized, as Asahi flexed his restored forearm, testing the strength that flowed through it as if it had always been there.
Finally, Asahi looked up at Lucretia with a gentle smile. "I suppose you've already met her in battle, Lucretia-nee," he said, gesturing to Amaterasu. "This is my new friend and companion, Amaterasu."
Amaterasu corrected him immediately, her tone respectful but firm. "Master, I am not your friend. I am your servant."
She then turned to Lucretia with a polite bow. "It's an honor to meet you formally, Lucretia Zola. I'm deeply grateful for your kindness and for sheltering my master after his recent battles."
Still recovering from her unexpected situation, Lucretia hid her surprise in her warm smile, which inclined her head.
"The honor is mine. To witness such a profound bond and strength… Thank you for the honor of introducing yourself. O Goddess Amaterasu" The warm connection lingered, binding them in a quiet understanding.
Amaterasu smiled slightly and nodded at her, satisfied with Lucretia Zola's action. "You can call just my name, I grant you permission to it."
"Y-yes."
The garden returned to its peaceful state as the golden light faded, leaving a newfound harmony between them all.
Which concluded what had happened and went inside the house.
---
Asahi has just finished testing his body capabilities and adjusting his new training set in the house's backyard under the big tree in the morning.
The house's backyard, shaded by a massive oak tree, had become his daily training ground.
"Which reminds me.."Tet, who had been floating nearby with her usual mischievous energy, chimed in
"Mhm?"
"Did you text Grandpa Ichiro and the others? They're probably going nuts wondering where you are.""
"Indeed." Amaterasu didn't inquire about their identity because she already knew who they were from reading his memory.
Asahi blinked, caught off guard. "Ah! I completely forgot about that." He smacked his forehead in exasperation before quickly pulling out his phone from his storage space.
[You got 100+ notifications missed calls, and messages]
The screen was flooded with notifications—missed calls from Grandpa Ichiro, Grandma Chiyo, and others. Among them, Shizuka's name appeared multiple times, her concern practically radiating through the screen.
Asahi sighed and scratched his head.
"Ugh… They've been worried about me since the disaster in Italy. I forgot to tell them I'm fine after all the madness," Asahi muttered to himself.
Tet giggled. "Well, you were a bit busy dealing with gods and fighting off monsters. I'd be worried too."
Sighing, Asahi quickly sent a message to let everyone know he was safe, apologizing for the silence. He felt a pang of guilt for not reaching out sooner, but there had been so much going on. He couldn't afford distractions.
Once the messages were sent, Tet floated closer, her mischievous grin still in place. "Now, don't get too distracted! You should probably check your abilities—there's been a new development."
Asahi blinked, "New upgrade? What do you mean?" his curiosity piqued. He had grown accustomed for not checking his [Status] regularly but this time he know something felt different.
Amaterasu, standing at his side, offered a gentle smile. "It's time you assess the changes in your powers, Master. I sense a growth in your strength."
"Right," he said, clearing his mind. He activated his [Status] Authority.
'[Status]!"
The interface appeared in front of him, displaying his personal information and abilities. But this time, there was something... unusual.
"Oh! " He muttered under his breath. His gaze as he examined the new additions to his status.

PAGE: 1
=======================================
Asahi's eyes sparkled as he scrolled through his updated status. His stats had improved, new titles appeared, and passive skills he hadn't expected showed up with startling clarity.
He felt a deep sense of satisfaction; the grind was paying off.
Asahi's eyes lit up as he scanned the new setup, noting the organized layout and updated titles. His stats had improved, and new passive skills appeared.
The first thing that caught his attention was his job-specific skill: Synergist Mastery. It had upgraded, and the enchantment of dwarf of No game no life was added to his class skills too.
The list of abilities under it was vast, and impressive his skill was getting shown and Asahi smiled to himself. His abilities were becoming more powerful by the day.
The changes to his stats were also apparent. His Strength had risen from SS+ to SS++, and his Magic Power had gone from EX+ to EX++.
It was clear that his combat potential had skyrocketed. His Stamina and Endurance had also received considerable boosts, which made sense after the intense battle he had been following.
As he was satisfied with his gain, that stood out above all in the panel:
"Whoa... [Variant Campione]?!" Asahi murmured, eyes widening at the unique descriptor.
"I won't spoil it for you," Tet, ever the playful observer, smiled mischievously "Click on it and see for yourself."
His fingers hovered over the icon before he tapped it, curious to understand more about his new status. The panel expanded, revealing a detailed description.
=================================
[Variant Campione]
Description: A unique god slayer blessed by gods, maintaining a symbiotic relationship and gaining their Authority.
Special Traits: Unlike other god slayers, this user's presence does not trigger the battle instincts of gods.
================================
?! Asahi's jaw dropped.
Tet put up his mouth to avoid some bugs getting in.
Asahi hadn't expected to become a variant type.
The term was unfamiliar, though he had a vague recollection of hearing it in passing.
Only one other person in the stories was described as a Variant Campione
The second Protagonist.
Rokuhara Ren
He doesn't know much about that man, only the cover of the novel Shiniki no Campiones.
He only knows that person is only a variant campione.
The reason for becoming a Variant Campione is to have a symbiote relationship with some god and the uniqueness that constitutes him.
Hence, he wasn't just a godslayer; he was a unique one who was able to form symbiotic relationships with gods rather than simply kill them.
That meant he didn't have to fight gods the moment he see him unless he chose to, a revelation that brought a sense of relief.
Thinking for a moment, where did he get the god's blessing?
...
Realization struck him. "Amaterasu's Authorities, Grandpa's blessings, Mom Pandora, and those goddesses…" he muttered.
Tet smirked, her eyes dancing with amusement. "Took you long enough, genius."
Asahi chuckled, wiping away a few happy tears. "This is... this is perfect. It's everything I could've hoped for."
This newfound power would enhance his abilities and change how he approached encounters with divine beings.
That means he can avoid fighting gods and pass this on to others while he enjoys his normal life.
This is the greatest ability he has.
"There, There." Tet smiling while patting Asahi.
Eager to discover more, he began the next page by reviewing his updated Authorities, each more astounding than the last.
