Campione Scumbag in Mash-up Anime

In a world filled with supernatural forces, almost every country has a specialized organization to deal with threats that go beyond the understanding of ordinary humans. Japan is no exception.

In the land of the rising sun, the Divine Enforcers serve as the primary defense against supernatural phenomena. This organization consists of two main divisions with distinct roles and authority: the Historical Compilation Committee and the Onmyou Agency.

### Historical Compilation Committee

Responsible for controlling information about supernatural events.

- Concealing the existence of mystical creatures and strange occurrences from the general public through media manipulation.

- Handling evil and criminal practitioners of the occult, as well as relatively harmless aliens.

- The Historical Compilation Committee is led by four families: the Seishuuin Family, the Kuhoutsuka Family, the Renjou Family, and the Sayanomiya Family.

### Onmyou Agency

Focused on combating supernatural beings such as ghosts, youkai, and evil spirits that frequently plague Japan. Their leaders are known as the Twelve Divine Generals, the strongest onmyouji who hold authority over spiritual protection across the nation.

As the two main forces, the Historical Compilation Committee and the Onmyou Agency often operate behind the scenes, ensuring that humanity continues to live in peaceful ignorance.

A short while after Ren left the scene, five men in black suits emerged from the shadows. Though they looked like ordinary office workers, their sharp eyes scanned the charred debris with meticulous precision.

One of them reached out, sensing the residual energy in the air. His face tensed momentarily before he let out a sigh.

"This... is divine energy residue." He said, his voice trembling.

The others shuddered. They had suspected something terrible had happened, but not on this scale.

"There's no trace of the Heretic God." Another agent spoke after inspecting the crater. "Is the Heretic God still nearby?"

Everyone tensed at the question. Heretic Gods were walking disasters wherever they went. If such a being were still in the vicinity, they would all be dead in an instant.

Their leader finally spoke, his voice flat but carrying an underlying tension.

"Don't be reckless. If the Heretic God were still here, we'd already be dead."

"..."

They fell silent, then slowly began to grasp the situation. Most likely, the Heretic God had already left the area.

One of them sighed in relief. "At least we arrived late."

"..."

No one denied it.

In the face of gods, even the strongest sorcerers were nothing more than slightly larger ants. And they—mere field agents tasked with gathering information—stood no chance. If they had arrived earlier, they wouldn't have had the opportunity to stand here now.

"Report to headquarters. We need further investigation." Their leader ordered.

They quickly departed, leaving the crater silent once more. A specialized team would handle the aftermath of the destruction.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

The sky was still dark when Ren opened the door to his apartment, the familiar scent greeting him calmly. The clock on the wall showed 4:30 AM—dawn was approaching, but the night still refused to relent.

His steps halted in front of the bedroom door. From beneath the blanket, he could see the silhouette of Itsuki, sleeping soundly, her swollen belly indicating her eight-month pregnancy.

Ren didn't enter. He simply gazed for a moment, then let out a soft sigh before heading to the living room. Sitting on the sofa, he removed his jacket and leaned back.

"Let's summarize what I learned from the earlier test. My running speed is about 400 km/h. That's no small number. 400 km/h is equivalent to the speed of a small plane or an F1 racing car. Relying solely on physical strength, I can lift something weighing 5–6 tons. That means I can lift a large truck or even an armored vehicle with little effort."

"And my punching strength is around 8–10 tons of pressure. I need to control my strength, or else an ordinary human hit by my punch would be obliterated instantly."

"These are the basic attributes of a Campione. Even without using Divine Authorities, the body of a Godslayer has surpassed human limits tenfold. If they utilize their Divine Authorities, they become far more powerful."

"Campiones are indeed worthy of both respect and fear. Their existence is as dangerous as that of Heretic Gods."

The reason Ren returned late was because he had been testing his new limits.

He had run across the city in an instant, leaped from skyscrapers without injury, and toppled power poles with a single punch.

Now, he could no longer be called an ordinary human.

Ren let out an admiring sigh at the power of a Campione, then felt the name of his Divine Authority emerge in his mind.

"Sun Conqueror... That name fits Hou Yi, the hero who shot down nine suns in mythology."

"In short, Sun Conqueror Divine Authority is a set of archery skills—Heavenly Eye, Meteoric Ascent, Solar Annihilation, and Nine Sun Strikes."

A few hours ago, Ren was just a scumbag who fooled around with women until they got pregnant, but now he had become a Campione, unreachable by any ordinary human.

As a Campione, the most important thing, without a doubt, is the Divine Authority stolen from a Heretic God.

Thanks to the influence of Pandora's Godslayer ritual, Ren didn't need to think too hard to fully understand the role and usage of his Divine Authority.

However, gods possess many Divine Authorities, and Campiones do not obtain all of a Heretic God's Divine Authorities.

The Divine Authority stolen by a Campione is related to the nature and character of the Campione themselves.

Therefore, even if Campiones kill the same Heretic God one by one, different Campiones will obtain different Divine Authorities.

"Sharp vision is a must for an archer. Otherwise, how could an archer aim at enemies from a distance? Thus, Heavenly Eye is the manifestation of Hou Yi's vision."

Heavenly Eye allows Ren to see all objects within his line of sight without blur, even if they are normally obscured by fog, darkness, or illusions. Nothing can hide from his sight.

"During the earlier test, without using any incantation, I could see up to 200 kilometers."

How did Ren know the accuracy of his visual range so precisely? Simple—he saw Mount Bandai in Fukushima. The distance between Tokyo and Fukushima is 200 kilometers.

"If I use Heavenly Eye at full power... an incorporeal eye the size of the moon will form in the exosphere. In other words, I can target any country on Earth. In the myth, Hou Yi shot down nine suns, so it's no surprise his visual range is extraordinary."

Ren smiled faintly, then continued analyzing the second skill, Meteoric Ascent.

"Meteoric Ascent is a skill that allows every projectile fired to travel at unmatched speed and power, like a meteor piercing the sky. With this technique, no projectile is faster or stronger than the user's. Even an ordinary arrow can pierce steel as if it were paper."

Every arrow he releases will have unparalleled speed and penetrating power. Ren has now shattered the common sense that thermal weapons are superior to cold weapons.

He continued analyzing the third skill—Solar Annihilation.

"Solar Annihilation is an attack that destroys sun-based rulers. Arrows fired with this technique negate the supremacy of solar power, making them the antithesis of sun gods and goddesses. The stronger the target's connection to the sun, the greater the destructive impact they receive."

With this skill, Ren is not only capable of fighting ordinary gods but also becomes a nightmare for all sun gods across various pantheons.

Apollo, Amaterasu, Ra, Surya, Huitzilopochtli...

They are all natural targets of the Sun Conqueror's Divine Authority.

Ren suppressed a grin.

"Wow, haven't I become the antithesis of all sun gods in every pantheon?"

In any mythology, sun gods always hold the highest positions.

Apollo is one of the twelve Olympian gods in Greek mythology. Amaterasu is the chief goddess in the Shinto pantheon. Ra is the supreme god in Egyptian mythology.

And now... Ren has a weapon to kill them.

He felt adrenaline coursing through his body.

However, there was still one final skill he needed to understand.

The strongest skill in the Sun Conqueror's Divine Authority. Compared to the previous three skills, it's no exaggeration to call Nine Sun Strikes the ultimate attack.

"This is the crystallization of Hou Yi shooting down nine suns. Mimicking the original legend where Hou Yi shot down nine of the ten suns in the sky, I fire nine arrows that soar into the heavens, as if aiming to kill the sun gods once more."

"Upon reaching the zenith of the sky, the arrows transform into nine giant suns that scorch everything below. A single sun is enough to incinerate mountains and Japanese prefectures, while nine suns create a sea of fire capable of destroying continents and turning regions into barren wastelands."

"It's terrifying... That's even more horrifying than the world's most powerful nuclear bomb!"

His expression was a mix of awe and dread.

As the owner of the Sun Conqueror's Divine Authority, Ren could confirm this wasn't an exaggeration.

Indeed, Nine Sun Strikes wouldn't be able to erase giant continents like Eurasia or Antarctica from the map, but medium-sized continents like North or South America?

Is the destructive power of Nine Sun Strikes too absurd?

Not really.

Every Campione possesses Divine Authorities capable of affecting the Earth on a global scale.

- Sturm und Drang: Marquis Voban has complete control over the Earth's weather. If he truly exerted himself, he could influence global weather for an extended period.

- Heaven's Fall: Luo Hao can cause solar or lunar eclipses at will. Normally, it lasts for half a day. However, if she pours a massive amount of magical energy into it, she can extend its activation for several years.

- Earth Sea Shaker: Smith can summon a flawed sacred beast to manipulate floods and earthquakes at will. If he pours enough magical energy into it, California could be swallowed by tsunamis and earthquakes.

- Wandering Avarice: Alec can create localized black holes with a radius of about 20 to 30 meters, which attract and compress anything in the area where they are summoned.

- Return to Medieval Style: Doni can nullify all modern devices and conveniences, reducing the level of civilization in the area where he is present to a point where technology more advanced than medieval levels cannot be used within several kilometers for half a day. However, the more power he uses during activation, the larger the area covered and the longer the duration, to the point where it could cover a metropolitan city the size of Milan for several days. It is a Divine Authority with the potential to threaten the world.

- Live or Die: Aisha can generate cold air from her body. If she uses this power excessively, winter will come and dominate the area where she uses it for an extended period.

- Ten Incarnations – White Stallion: Godou can summon a pseudo-sun to fire a spear of light at his enemies. The flames of White Stallion have power equivalent to a solar flare. The upper limit of this incarnation is unknown, with the strongest said to be a universal-scale explosion capable of burning the endless domain of the goddess of fate.

Ren, like other Campiones, possesses a Divine Authority with an ultimate attack of extraordinary destructive power on a global scale.

"With Nine Sun Strikes... I don't need to fear other Campiones, even though I'm still a beginner." Ren sighed deeply.

Does that mean he can defeat them?

Not necessarily.

Ren isn't arrogant. Even though he is now a Campione, he remains aware that his position is at the bottom among the Campiones of this era, at least for now.

Why?

Because he only has one Divine Authority.

Meanwhile, the senior Campiones have been fighting for years, seizing many Divine Authorities from the gods they've slain.

Each of their Divine Authorities is a deadly technique.

Only fellow Campiones understand the terror of their kind. Campiones can be considered a completely different species from humans.

They are monsters capable of snatching victory from defeat, killing Heretic Gods against all odds.

Unless absolutely necessary, Campiones prefer to avoid fighting each other to the death.

A fight to the death among them is a gamble, with the odds always fifty-fifty.

That's why Ren said he fears fighting any Campione. He might lose the battle, but killing him?

It's uncertain who would kill whom.

But even if Kusanagi Godou becomes the eighth Campione as in the original storyline, Ren remains at the bottom.

Because Godou's Divine Authority, Ten Incarnations, is technically equivalent to ten Divine Authorities at once!

"In the original story, Godou defeated Salvatore Doni shortly after becoming a Campione..."

"Forced Marquis Voban to retreat..."

"And even didn't lose to Luo Hao."

"Thinking about it, Godou almost never lost. As expected of the protagonist, the world truly loves him." Ren smiled bitterly.

It would be a lie to say he wasn't envious.

However, at the same time, he is also satisfied with his own Divine Authority.

Even if he doesn't have the protagonist's luck, it doesn't matter.

Because he will write his own story.
