Chapter 45: Farewell, Golden Sign!

The icy waters of the pool spread and rose above the scarlet carpet and the surrounding rock pillars.

Shi Ang walked down slowly, took out a small bottle of amber from his bosom, and crushed it.

Let the blood-red color drip into the water.

Under the faint light and shadow,

A figure appeared outside the doorway,

Shi Ang, who was focused on the things in his hands, said lightly,

"I've wondered countless times which Golden Saint Seiya will survive this fierce battle and return to this papal hall.

But even then, I can't pick out the current one among those possibilities. ”

"Disappointed,

His Royal Highness? ”

The edge of light, the gap of shadow.

The positions of the two are opposite, as if there will never be a line of junction.

After a long time, Shi Ang said slowly.

"Let's go over."

Garon stood at the entrance, not moving.

"Aren't you worried that I'm threatening Athena's safety?

A sinner like me would lead her into an even more dangerous predicament. ”

"That's between you and Athena,

It's up to you to decide. ”

The figures of the two missed, one forward, one backward.

At the exit in front of you, there are steps leading to the temple,

Across that long distance, Garon seemed to be able to see her waiting in the distance.

"Garon."

β€œοΌŸβ€

"My mission as pope is coming to an end."

[Next, it's your time.] 】

Garon's footsteps paused slightly,

Then he stepped into the shadows of darkness.

The pool flooded the hall and overflowed Shion's waist,

Step by step, he sank into it,

Zodiac ...... and the Papal Room......

I used to be here, one by one, to confirm whether they had the qualifications to be the Golden Saint Seiya.

However, today...... It is my own hand that has sent you to death.

Warrior of the Zodiac,

You guys

Have you ever blamed me?

1st house,

My disciple,

The Guardian of the House of Aries, Mu ......

The warrior of gold is standing in the center,

The area around the cracked crystal wall array has been completely occupied by the Demon Star.

"The guardian of the first house, it turns out that there is only one person?"

"The Sanctuary has really lost the power to fight against my lord!"

The sharp teeth interlaced the dark clothes flashed with a cold luster, and the eyes of the Heavenly Sin Star appeared with murderous intent,

"Even a beast of prey is not alone in a colony of good beasts, let alone a weak lamb."

"Let your blood be a sacrifice to my lord."

"Die in the belly of a wolf, Aries!"

The crimson ball of light struck his body,

"Hell Roars!"

Then, at the place where he fell, another Pluto fighter raised his hands,

"Bloodflower - Guillotine!"

The winding river of blood entrenched around him, however,

[Also, it's not over.] 】

The thin crystal silk that seemed to be like nothing bound the bodies of many underworld fighters,

The frantically struggling Goblin Star loses its former composure,

"Mu,

Guys like you, why can't you understand?

With your strength alone, you can't save the defeat of the Sanctuary at all! ”

Whether it's quality or quantity,

The outcome of this battle was already predestined.

The underworld will be the winner!

"I don't understand...... It's you......."

The parts of the sacred garment hovered beside him, imprisoning a huge amount of power.

[I believe in the power of my companions, and they will do better than me. 】

Under the shepherd's star, the golden sheen converged on his fingertips.

"O monsters underground,

Have you ever seen it...... Stardust disillusionment? ”

On the scattered star map, high-speed rotating star clusters shoot out brilliant orbits.

Yes, I believe.

[Sanctuary, will eventually win the final victory. 】

Are you right,

Arudiba?

The bull monster's giant axe and golden fist pressure intertwined, slashing out fiery red stars.

The breastplate of the golden bull has a huge cross crack,

"The strength of the brute bull has subsided, and it looks like you're going to stop here, Arudiba."

On the raised high slope, the tall figure knelt on the ground for the first time,

"Perhaps, but ......"

β€œοΌŸβ€

"At least, after you are finished!"

The horn of the golden bull galloped freely inside the underworld, and Gordon's body gradually fell apart.

"What...... Time?! ”

In the shattered blood mist, the unwilling sigh of the Hades Fighter was left.

Unexpectedly, I would lose to you.

But, what a bull.

Will you be able to deal with the next enemy?

[You must know that we guys are just pawns. 】

"Excuse me."

"This guy has been hit hard by the aroma of monsters, the giant axe of the bull monster, and he also ate an attack from Lord Radamandis......"

Why

Why?

Why is he still on his feet.

"Radamandis!

If you have the consciousness of a broken body, then try again! ”

In front of the blood-stained golden body, three huge black shadows gathered,

"It seems that you can't pass the second house by normal methods, so-"

[Finally, they were forced out.] 】

Among the one hundred and eight demon stars in the underworld, there are three people standing at the apex.

Blood stained down from the corners of his eyebrows, staining his vision red.

"Be honored, Taurus."

"Your lives will be harvested by the three strongest of our Demon Stars."

"To really crush your loyalty and power!"

He took a deep breath, suppressed the pain in his chest and abdomen, and laughed.

"Hahaha, so what are you waiting for?!"

As you wish, Brute.

Rest in peace in the second house!

"Griffon, Minos."

"Celestial Star Garuda, Aiagoth."

"Celestial Stars, Wyvern, Radamandis."

"In the name of the Big Three,

Disappear - the bullfight of gold! ”

The small black universe came to a point, and fell heavily on the tall body made of gold, breaking the sharp horns.

[It seems that I can only go so far, but-]

If it were you, you would be able to win even against them, right?

Gemini, Zachar.

3rd house,

The power of the wyvern disappeared in the palm of his hand, and Gemini said lightly,

"Your body has been battered by the horn of the Taurus, how can you be my opponent?"

"What?"

At the moment when the raptor hesitated, the heavily injured hands were crossed by the opponent.

The last thing I saw was a brilliant galactic torrent, all of which collapsed.

[Since you don't want to die in another dimension, let's smash it with the stars, Radamandis! 】

GALAXIANβ€”β€”EXPLOSION!

The torn garments fell to his feet,

Behind Gemini, who is about to return, two unusually large small universes descend.

[The Hades Fighter as a consumable was almost completely wiped out in the third house, and Athena's Golden Saint Seiya may be more troublesome than expected. 】

[It doesn't matter, just a few humans, no matter how many people come, they can't rewrite the defeat of the Sanctuary. 】

With just one step, the Grim Reaper, who calmly descended, crossed the limits of space and came to Zachar's front.

His arm swung diagonally, leaving a deep notch in the golden robe.

Following that trajectory, one-third of the double uterus gradually collapsed.

"Behold, this is the power of God.

And you will never be able to resist, fate! ”

On the black dead earth,

Thanatos withdrew his palm and looked contemptuously at the silent traitor beyond the crumbling barrier.

"Is it just to lure us here so that we can take advantage of this barrier?"

"But,

Your cleverness is only enough to delay for a short time.

Cancer. ”

He slowly raised his head,

In those eyes, there was gradually a golden color.

"I'm sorry about that, God."

My life is hard!

On the corpse-dense stratus clouds, a golden armor slowly descended.

[Gambling on the honor of the fourth house will not let you leave easily, evil god!] 】

"This guy,

These Golden Saint Seiya ......"

Tanatos looked at his opponent coldly,

The teeth make a crisp sound of anger,

Don't they know how to respect the existence of God?!

Then let me teach you well!

Between the broken golden fangs, he easily struck the golden lion with his whip,

"O lion,

Bow down before us,

Confess that Athena is not and confess your sins! ”

He pinched the warrior's neck, loosening his fingertips slightly, waiting for an answer.

The trembling from the intense pain gradually subsided, and then his voice came out in the silent fifth house.

"Infatuation...... Delusion! ”

In the rising dust, the man who should have been shattered into ashes stood in front of him,

A flash of light shattered his helmet, leaving a blood-red wound on the god's face.

Damn it

Damn,

"Are you as stubborn as the reckless men before you?!"

"The guardian of the sixth house, the man closest to God?!"

Saga stood up, the rosary in his hand levitating,

"Say goodbye to your five senses for a moment, twins!

The biggest mystery of Virgo, Sky Dance - Treasure Wheel! ”

"Hmph,

Ha ha

Hahaha-"

I see, that's why Lord Hades wants to destroy you.

They do not know humility, and they have defiled the earth,

God's created playthings do need to be cleansed!

"Judging the life and death of others based on their own preferences."

"This kind of life has no value that we respect!"

The purple halo is blocked by great force,

Before the absolute vacuum of the terrifying destiny, is a point that gathers the golden small universe,

"This power ......"

The Grim Reaper struggled to maintain his tricks,

Beneath the crumbling walls, sacred runes flutter,

"You mortals...... Are you planning to kill gods?! ”

The Beastmaster's fangs escaped, drawing deeper marks on his face,

The pain began to eat away at his mind.

It's just a mere human being,

Why...... Can it be done to this extent?!

[Of course, it's for the protection of something important!] 】

Under the statue of the goddess of war holding the statue of victory, the shadows of the three people coincide,

As the Golden Saints, we gamble everything here.

This blow, offering life and soul.

Burn, little universe of gold!

"For Athena!"

"To protect ...... This land! ”

"To open up a new future!"

Stop there, Death!

【ATHENAβ€”β€”EXCLAMATION! 】

In the explosion that rivaled the creation of the universe, the body of the god gradually evaporated.

"Thanatos?"

The sleeping god who was supposed to move forward as expected slowly squatted down,

I see, not only him, but even me-

"Hypnos,

We're ......."

[Even if consciousness is taken away......]

"The tricks I have tempered have been integrated into this body along with my blood."

He waved his arms and said to his worried companion on the side,

"Don't worry, Aeolos.

This power is born to protect the Lord, as long as you and I are always in the same place,

Then, my holy sword will give you a chance to win. ”

[Even if the body is destroyed.......]

"Your Highness, there is one thing, I have to ask you no matter what!"

β€œοΌŸβ€

"I knew that the next battle would be extremely difficult.

In order to prevent unforeseen circumstances, please impose a ban on me. ”

"The sacred garment of Pisces, I have indeed reforged."

"I don't mean the Holy Clothes."

β€œοΌŸβ€

"It's the organs that have been destroyed, the limbs have been damaged, and the orders can still be carried out according to the will - the life forbidden law!"

The fragrance of roses fades,

Behind the kneeling Pisces,

Hypnos reached out with a trembling hand and touched the blooming golden rose on his chest.

"Why is it ...... To this extent. ”

He raised his head,

On that high place, a golden bow slowly opened.

"Aren't you afraid of death?!"

"O God,

There is an end to human life. ”

The detached body exhausted the last of its strength, and the corners of Aiolos' mouth slowly curved,

[But only the will can be inherited!] 】

Remember, O gods!

This is the sanctuary of the goddess of war!

It's humanβ€”the land of hope!!

One Hundred and Eight Demon Stars,

Thanatos, the god of death,

Hypnos, the god of sleep,

"The tide of battle has indeed turned, but your strength has been exhausted."

The overlord soaring in the sky sneered and looked down on the blood-stained scorpion king,

"The power of God is inexhaustible,

Human power is always accompanied by boundaries.

Abandon the near and smooth paths, and choose the unreachable paths.

You Gold Saint Seiya are really a bunch of unreasonable guys. ”

The next moment, the crimson scorpion venom appeared on the luxurious underworld.

"It seems that your proud divine power is not as strong as you think, Garuda."

blurred vision, hearing loss,

The god-winged Garuda tried to maintain his posture, but he couldn't stop the fiery poison that gradually connected to the Scorpio star map on his robe.

"Life without end, illusory power.

What exactly is worth pursuing? ”

Crimson stitch tracks hit the chest, and the last Pluto fighter slammed into the earth.

"Fall to the dust, Garuda!"

Underworld,

Under my command, the mighty legion was so annihilated.

"However, the Golden Saint Seiya of the Sanctuary has also been depleted."

Although trapped in the ice shell, Hades had an extra smile on his face,

"Your life is almost over.

Aquarius

Sanctuary,

mankind

There is nothing left. ”

"No, we ......."

The plain-clothed girl slowly leaned behind him, the golden holy clothes were reorganized, and the bottle seat that bloomed with royal blue light was facing the lord of the underworld.

[There's a future!! 】

The ice tower built by absolute zero is shining with dawn.

"Thank you,

Warrior of the Zodiac,

Thank you for giving your lives to regain the disadvantage of the Sanctuary. ”

In the pool of blood, he said lightly.

"Next, leave it to me."

Under the ice tower, a black gap emerged.

"The future?

This little hope,

I'll cut it off. ”

He raised his sword lightly,

The small black universe condenses into a giant python that devours the earth of the zodiac.

The sword slashed, and the last flower gallery collapsed.

On the temple, the girl felt a biting coldness and was slowly approaching.

Under the rain of floating roses, the six-winged Hades King with a black sword in hand walked step by step,

Behind him, there are cracked mountains.

"Athena,

Your Golden Saint Seiya,

Your zodiac house,

It's gone. ”
