    Okay, so token good member? Bart seems to have already made an observation on Silver, and finds himself a kindred soul...on hating their goddesses. His sister is either a secretly good person who wants out of the familia, a very control freak type person, or she's a yandere for her brother.

    Have familia gods/goddesses ever been slain while on the mortal plane by mortals?

    Nope. It is generally a bad idea for anything to kill a god/goddess other than another one, as their Arcanum automatically activates healing them, and in whatever time they have before they are booted back to heaven they can do some serious shit to whoever killed them. Also, they can meet the soul of whoever killed them in the afterlife, so that's extra shit for the mortal.

    Ok, can an outsider consume some of their godly power, possibly if you consume some of their flesh or blood?

    I don't think that's even remotely a thing in the setting.

    The Falna is basically a god literally using their blood in a sort of ritual to make you into a baby Demigod, so there is that.

    But if you are asking specifically for a power or a skill that allows someone to kill a god and absorb some their power (kinda like a Campione when you think about it), then no.

    Or in this fic no. Because I don't see a story if the SI or a character had a skill like that in this fic/setting.

    Or rather, the story would go into a direction I am not interested in writing. Either the person with said OP power will be hunted by EVERYONE the second they find out about him, thus he spends his life on the run if found, or in hiding if his power isn't found out yet. Or they pretend to be a god, which is a whole other type of story dealing with a long con. Or they just crub-stomp everyone, The End.

    In conclusion, no, this power does not exist in this fic. And in the original setting, it wasn't a thing.

    Again, sure, someone could write a story with it being some character's Skill or Development Ability, but I don't think I would be interested in introducing this element to the fic.

    MY GOD NIKE IS SO GOD DAMN IRRITATING.

    I'm not sure where you are going with her for this, but this far in, not only is the MC incredibly wimpy (outside of bloodlust battle) and ridiculously stupid, but Nike is grating.
    So grating.

    I understand you're attempting to make this funny by having us laugh at the MC's misery and Nike is the instigator of most the shet but when you continuously have him become unfortunate it becomes so much worse.

    *phew

    Right the rant is nowhere done, but I shouldn't go on too much.
    In comedy and in writing you should attempt a sort of balance between characters. So far this has been stretched way too much in Nike's favour and it is not good because it feels like you are attempting to bash the reader. Especially since this is an SI where the Reader is put into the MC's shoes as much as the Author here.
    Nike's wins, okay that fine I get that its her thing, but not winning ALL the time.
    So please.
    Let the (*&%)(*#@%Y)($#^ MC win.

    Thank you.

    It's been well over a month, dude.

    Edit: It's your first post though, wow. Reminds me of my first couple of forum posts on my first forum joined.

    I'm a bit confused on what you said here.
    A lot of unfamiliar lingo.

    It basically means don't post in threads that weren't active for a long time, although I think it's okay on QQ if it's to further the discussion. Not entirely sure though.

    As for this, well thanks for reading, hopefully if you decide to continue you'll see that things get better.
    Yeah...fuck it, I'll bring it back. Two days should be enough.
