Chapter 39: The Wounds of Mortals

At this time, Sasha, who should have lost her power, reappeared in her pupils with the color of a goddess, and she answered without confusion or even without hesitation.

"It's not a ploy, I just want Hades to live this life as a human being. Even if it is just once, let the so-called holy war, which has been repeated since the age of mythology, disappear into obscurity. ”

After the goddess's answer is over, it is Sasha's answer.

"Indeed, I could not do anything during those days as a human being, living a life of poverty and helplessness as an orphan......"

Sasha smiled contentedly, and she was genuinely happy just thinking back to those days, and so did Pegasus.

“…… However, it is very happy. With Tenma and Aaron's brother here, no, everyone in the church suffers the same thing. Even so, we get up together, work together, laugh together, fall asleep together, and encourage each other to live. I really miss those days. ”

Listening to Sasha's self-description, neither Tenma nor Akima interrupted or spoke, but listened quietly, Tenma felt resonance from Sasha's words, and Amama pressed his hat to the brim of his hat, as if thinking about something.

"The so-called pain, ......"

"Is it something that can't be felt by the gods on high?" Akima seemed to want to say something, but Sasha picked up on his words.

"I used to be scared to be reborn as a human being, but all humans have endured a lot of suffering to survive. Even in a situation of hunger and cold, they can hold each other's hands and find possible happiness...... How strong and illusory it was, both in the hands they had reached out with all their might and in the hands they clasped with each other......"

"Humans have always been looking forward like this, and at that time, Aaron's brother and Pegasus and I supported each other to survive like that, and I believe that those days will definitely not be meaningless."

......As a goddess and a member of the countless humans living in this world, Sasha's words strengthened Tenma's belief that she would definitely protect her, whether as a Saint Seiya or as a Tenma.

At this point, he snapped his fingers again, untying Pegasus. After realizing that his body could move freely, he quickly snatched Sasha from the horse's hand, and held Sasha at a distance from him.

"You get the idea! Sasha won't play with people's hearts like you, we are childhood sweethearts who grew up together, no matter what the holy war is, it's okay...... No matter what happens in the future, we will live together! ”

"I see, it's really a drop of the little beauty, I'm satisfied, this is the whirlpool that I didn't expect at all 15 and fifteen years ago!"

The black air began to dissipate from the horse's body, and the dark clothes also faded back to their previous black suit, and the pure white wings spread out from behind him, and the Pegasus that he had used to ride appeared again.

"Sure enough, nature is the most terrifying, whether it is Hades or the godslayer, they all want to dance with this little beauty, this little episode is also a drop of water that causes ripples, it's a pleasure to see you, Pegasus."

Sitting on top of Pegasus, Akima looked at Pegasus expectantly at Pegasus and Sasha as he pulled out his pocket watch and smiled a little wickedly.

“……? What are you talking about......

[It's funny, all three vortices are gradually starting to exceed my expectations. Especially the one you've been hiding!! 】

————————————————————————————————

After the Pegasi and the others had all passed through the House of Mercury, a black vortex resurfaced after Pegasus and the others left, and a young Pluto Fighter of medium stature fell out of it, and the features of the Dome robe reminded of some kind of strange monkey.

“…… That damn Mephistopheles actually did this to me, and gave me the palace that Lord Aaron handed over to me to guard for people to pass directly, so that I didn't even have a chance to take revenge on Shion. ”

The grass of the Tianqiao Star Monkey (Hanuman) is itself the palace guard of the Mercury Palace, but it was briefly sealed by the secret plot of the horse.

"So, I had to go straight to my sister, and it looks like she's still on that wreck......

——————————————————————————————————

In the valley behind the statue of Athena......

"Huh~~~" Sitting cross-legged in a big pit, Naraku, who was wearing the Phoenix's holy clothes, let out a long breath of turbidity.

In the previous battle with Huihuo, he didn't win without injury, and when he was hit by Huihuo in that state, his body was also beaten into a mess, and his internal organs were not badly injured.

For this reason, after defeating Huihuo, he did not rush to [LC] immediately, but stayed here first, and through his superhuman recovery power, he finally recovered.

Naraku, who stood up from the ground, looked at the remnants of the Benu bird's dark clothes beside her.

"You won't need it next time! An immortal bird that has attained nirvana! I'll destroy this thing, LightningBolt!! ”

A golden light emanated from his arm, and in an instant, the tattered garment was shattered into the tiniest particles and disappeared in place.

"So is it time for me to play?" The middle finger of his right hand was put together between his eyebrows, "Ahh ”

Naraku's figure disappeared into the sanctuary.

The next moment......

In the sea of clouds below the Star Demon Palace, Naraku, who was wearing the sacred clothes of the Phoenix Constellation, appeared here out of thin air, stretched out his arm in the direction of the sea of clouds, and the turbulent small universe suddenly caused the sea of clouds to churn, and the ship of hope that had been sunk into the sea of clouds resurfaced.

“…… That ship actually ...... Who are you? ”

At this time, the figure of a pluto fighter floated over from the other side rowing a boat, it was the grass that had been pit by the horse before, and he wanted to go to his sister to settle everything, but as soon as he arrived here, he found that a man wearing a bronze holy robe had salvaged the ship of hope casually.

"Pluto Fighter? It's a good time to come, are you planning to get rid of all the people on this ship? That's a pity......" Naraku shook his head, as if he felt worthless for Tokusa, but the smile on his lips was undoubtedly mocking him, even if he had recovered part of his memory, Naraku's long-term character could not be changed.

Tocao, who has become the palace guard of the Demon Palace, is confident that he will not lose to him again even if he meets the Golden Saint Seiya Shi Ang, but the guy who appears now obviously doesn't take Tokusa seriously.

"Take me for a fool, you Saint Seiya are the same annoying guys, follow this ship and sink into the sea of clouds again, Praesepe-Departed-Soul-Summoning !!"
