Chapter 17: The Two Heroes (1)

"After all, it's just a little girl, maybe our expectations for her are too high."

Aioria placed the unconscious girl on the stone platform, and several Golden Saint Seiya around her also walked over.

They have neither the idea of rebuking Leo, nor the emotions of anger, and the only thing left is probably loss.

Although the result has been known for a long time, when the last trace of illusion is shattered, it is still a little difficult to let go.

"What's next?"

Dis Musk asked,

"Leave it to Zachar, and he will protect Athena." Shura said slowly,

"Since you can't fight with us, let her exist as a prop to maintain the enchantment for the time being." Miro said quietly, "Once the Pisces Palace is breached, the thirteenth person will send her out of the Sanctuary." ”

"Let's go, it's time for us to prepare for the final crusade."

The Golden Saint Seiya left one after another, and except for a few cases where they looked back twice, most of them did not make any sluggish movements.

An hour passed, two hours passed, and there was finally one more person in the shooter's palace.

He stood by the stone platform, and through the hole in his mask, his gaze rested on the pale face of the goddess,

After a while, he slowly reached out and took the golden scepter from the girl's hand.

Is that enough?

In the dark air, a voice seemed to ask.

Sa, do it. Since she doesn't have that ability, why don't you come...... Fill somebody's shoes.

The strong have the right to stand in that position, don't they?

"No, it's not." He covered his face in pain, and his long pale blue hair began to fade and gradually turn gray.

Abandon useless kindness, that kind of thing will only interfere with you.

As if hypnotized, he pulled out a white piece of paper from his bosom, something that looked ordinary still tinged with a slight glow in the darkness.

Then, the last light was crushed by his own hands,

From the shredded pieces of paper, a golden dagger suddenly appeared, gradually approaching the girl's frowning brow.

"Huh?" Virgo suddenly broke away from his meditative state and stood up.

"What's wrong, SaGa." Mu walked over and asked.

Saga bypassed Aries and walked straight towards Garon,

"Ahem." Garon hid the wine he hadn't had time to finish and wiped his mouth with a napkin.

"Garon."

"Well, I understand that the rules of the Sanctuary must be followed......",

"Where's the letter I gave you?"

"So I know, not next time—what do you say?"

Garon asked, raising an eyebrow.

"When you left the Zodiac to rescue the Bronze Saint Seiya, where was the white paper letter I gave you?"

"It landed in the Hades Palace, I thought that thing also had an effect on the Hades Fighter, so I ...... it",

"I see." Sagar's fingers grasping the rosary slowly relaxed,

Dis Musk walked back when he saw that Virgo didn't say hello, and secretly said weird. When he turned his face, Garon stood up a little irritably,

"Hey, where are you going?"

"Sober up!"

【Athena, Athena......】

Who is it, who is calling my name?

[Athena, I'm sorry.......]

Who is he...... What are you talking about?

She struggled to open her eyes, and it seemed that she could see a familiar face.

The gray walls are moving at high speed, and the cheeks seem to glow with a blazing light.

This feeling..... Lightspeed Punch?

Blood dripped, and the corners of his mouth moved,

[It doesn't matter if you don't have strength, please live well.] 】

The tired eyelids slowly closed, and the girl's hearing gradually weakened.

"I believe in God's mercy, not violence. 】

He slowly stopped, finally stopping running.

On the back of the holy robe, a pair of large golden wings were folded.

The solid walls reveal countless golden gaps, broken by immense force.

"Where is she?"

The man in the robe walked in calmly, looking around for the girl who had disappeared.

"Aiolos."

"Zachar, are you really Zachar?" ,

Aiolos wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stood up.

"I'm asking you, where's Athena?!"

The oppressive force caused by the Lightspeed Punch rushed straight towards Aiolos, and Sagittarius neither backed back nor dodged, and faced it with a straight fist.

"AtomicThunderBolt!"

The impact of light and light caused an absolute vacuum for a moment, and the collision of two forces bounced off the two Golden Saints.

It's so strong......

Aeolos pressed down on the stuffy pain in his chest,

"We agreed that we must not do anything to Athena, why should we break our agreement?"

"She can't do it, so I'll do it for her."

Zachar's answer was simple, so simple that Aeolos had the illusion of confronting a stranger.

No, if it were Zachar, he would never say such a thing.

"You shouldn't cover her, Aioloth." 'Sachar' said slowly, "Distraction is a big no-no in battle. ”

With that, he reached out and lifted the mask on his face,

"Now that you've discovered all this, you can't be allowed to live."

The power of the nebula condensed between his palms, a violent force that Aioros had seen many times before, but he never thought that one day he would taste it for himself.

A path of light hit the small universe in Saga's palm straight, detonating the destructive energy in advance.

"Who is it?!" Zachar's fingertips were stained with blood,

Is this feeling?

Aeolos turned around, and saw a man walking up the stone steps leading to the goat's palace,

"Although I was prepared before, I didn't expect your patience to be so poor, and it didn't take long to take the bait after you put down the bait."

He took off his helmet and hugged it around his waist, with a wicked smile on his lips,

"It's probably the first time we've met like this, 'Nissan.'"

"Garon?"

Aiolos looked at the visitor in disbelief, although he was a little surprised by the coincidence of the other party's appearance, but he was even more surprised by the other party's attitude.

Judging by Garon's words, it seems that he knew the reason why Sagar would become like this.

"Aeolos, step aside." Garon said slowly, "He'll leave it to me to deal with." ”

"But?!" ,

"Aren't you going to protect Athena?"

Garon said lightly, protecting Aeolos behind him, facing Zachar, who still didn't move.

"Well, don't be so nervous, Nissan."

Garon sank down and threw a punch.

"How about a greeting gift for you?"

The trajectory of the magic fist hit the brain directly, and the pupils of 'Sagar' gradually dilated.

"Garon, you ......",

Aiolos fell to his knees, his consciousness blurring.

Phantom Demon Emperor Fist.

"As long as I have him, it is equivalent to holding half of the zodiac, and this is my bargaining chip."

Garon laid one hand on Aeolos' shoulder and stretched out his other hand to Zachar.

"How do you think about it, do you want to cooperate?"
