Chapter Thirty-Nine: Their Plans

The figure scurrying through the long stone steps,

Garon,

My soul can't stay long without a host,

Now that you've recovered from all your injuries, it's time for me to leave the Sanctuary and fall asleep.

There's no way to see the end, it's a pity,

In the end, that little girl can hold this land,

It's still that guy who can fulfill his long-standing ambitions.

The answer may lie in you.

I fought with that little girl a few times, and even Poseidon, the emperor of the sea, never expected such a day.

Only once,

[Don't lose, Gemini.] 】

Seventh house,

The energy of annihilation is familiar and intimate,

Garon had no time to mourn his deceased comrades.

More than ten meters away, he jumped a few times to the front of the Libra Palace.

The quagmire of nightmares swallowed up most of the seventh house and cut off the path of the future.

Even if he was lucky enough to avoid the oppressive dark quagmire, the lonely stone staircase behind him did not connect to the eighth house.

He was unwilling to stop,

"Is there no way?"

Athena's enchantment is still in effect today, and he is unable to teleport long distances.

Even if you enter another dimension for a short time, there is no guarantee that you will connect back to somewhere in the Sanctuary again.

What to do?

He slammed the earth's crust with a punch, and the trembling earth slowly returned to calm after a moment,

"It's all here!"

It's a little bit closer.

From the moment I entered the Zodiac, I was vaguely aware of another small universe that had been watching the battle.

Hades – Hades!

Can't wait any longer,

He stood up, as if ready to venture beyond the boundaries of the nightmare,

Until, a voice stalled his movements.

"That was Oneiroi's last power, to stop any enemy who wanted to threaten Hades.

Don't be stupid, Gemini. ”

β€œοΌŸβ€

Garon looked at the other side of the stone steps in amazement,

There, a familiar Golden Saint Seiya stood up.

"It's finally here, old friend.

I've been waiting for you for a long time......"

In the Pope's Hall, Shi Ang, who was keenly aware of the strange small universe, frowned,

This breath ...... It's not Kamiao.

Zodiac signs, is there another Golden Saint Seiya who survived?

"Who is it?"

Shi Ang said slowly,

No, whoever it is, you have to get here as soon as possible.

If my prediction is correct, the black coffin that Ka Miao got ...... I'm afraid it's not enough to decide the victory.

"Hades, the king of Hades, the god who has not appeared in the battle until now.

How long are you going to hide?

Or ......"

- The Divine Realm,

The restless gods waited angrily but helplessly,

obviously has such a strong strength, but he can't even break through the twelve palaces.

No, not even the Golden Saint Seiya was killed.

"What the hell is that Hades guy doing?!"

Dissatisfaction, anxieties, anger,

Even as a god, the negative emotions that can't be erased are slowly vented,

Until one of them spoke,

"What are you anxious about?

Holy war..... But it's still going on. ”

"Butβ€”"

"If Hades really has that level of perfection, then there's no need to pay attention to him anymore.

Left and right are just a guy who has been defeated by mere mortals,

What qualifications do you have to return to the divine realm? ”

Having said that, just waiting is really hard to calm down.

Right now,

A new mirror slowly takes shape, revealing a dark scene.

"Huh?"

"This?"

"Thanatos and Hypnos are dead, so only ...... are left in the Hades army who can use this"

Their eyes are on the mirror,

In the gradually brighter environment, there is a relatively spacious side hall.

A teenager with over-the-shoulder green hair was leaning against the head of the bed, coughing softly.

"Instantly, what's wrong?"

The Saint Seiya, who was waiting on the side, got up and asked,

"It's nothing, it's just a little tired.

I've been resting for so long, but I still don't have much strength,

I'm such a useless guy. ”

Instantly apologized,

"Your injuries are not light, and it's good to be able to recover to this extent."

Phoenix comforted,

"I'm sorry, Nissan.

I'm dragging you down. ”

Looking out of the small window,

"You, you really want to fight with them, with the Golden Saints, right?"

Kazuki shook his head,

"Don't think too much about it, it's enough to have them in the holy war.

It doesn't make a difference between one more me and one less me. ”

Just looking out the window,

After a long time, I heard him say,

"Nissan, I'm a little thirsty, can you pour me a glass of water?"

Kazuki nodded hesitantly and walked out.

Darkness, which is an existence similar to shadow opposed to light, is slowly converging at this moment.

Instantly covered his forehead and clenched his fists in pain.

[A mere Saint Seiya can resist my consciousness for such a long time.......]

[Leave that guy away at the end, so as not to affect him?] 】

[Foolish mortal, since your wish has been fulfilled, thenβ€”surrender your body. 】

Consciousness began to blur, and the clenched fist slowly loosened,

He stretched out his fingertips, as if trying to grasp something,

However, everything in front of him turned into darkness,

========================================================

A few days ago, Hades Palace.

"Lord Hades, why...... Why give such an important thing to the Warriors? ”

Thanatos wondered,

"Wouldn't it be safer for me or Hypnos to keep the important black coffin of your body?"

Hypnos, who was usually calm, did not object at this moment, his eyes were full of consultation and confusion.

In front of the two of them, the soul of the Hades King in the gorgeous divine clothes has been fully awakened,

"The black coffin will weaken your power."

Hades simply replied,

The black coffin, the divine tool that houses the body of the Hades, is itself made of rare materials with the power of sealing.

Although the power of the seal can protect the god's body well, it will also hinder the exertion of the god's power.

Once you keep it around, mortals will not be affected much,

God, on the other hand, is unable to exert his usual power.

"Just a small impact, we-"

Thanatos tried to argue something, but he shuddered when he stepped on the intimidating little universe.

"Are you dissatisfied with my decision?"

"It's me who was rude."

"You're serious."

The two of them half-knelt down at the same time and said respectfully.

"Thanatos, Hypnos.

It's up to you to decide who protects the black coffin.

This holy war is different from the past, and with your strength, not even Athena in the Sanctuary can pose much of a threat to you.

It's just a mere twelve Golden Saints and an ungrown goddess of war.

Don't let me down. ”

"Yes!"

In a moment when death responded, Hypnos asked hesitantly,

"Master Hades, are you going to-"

"My body is prepared for victory,

With the protection of the black coffin, no one can harm it.

As for the fight, I already have a plan.

In the previous battle, the human who had been marked by my small universe was the next vessel to carry my soul.

As long as he's in the Sanctuary, I'll be able to find his place first,

Use his body to take Athena's life.

Therefore, when I slay Athena, you must annihilate all the power of the zodiac.

The victory of the underworld does not allow the slightest flaw.

Do you understand? ”

"Do your will."

Zodiac sign, eleventh house.

On the Aquarius Palace, dark clouds cover the sky.

[One hundred and eight demon stars, the three giants of the underworld. 】

[Tanatos, Hypnos.] 】

I didn't expect you guys to be so useless.

At the end of the day, do you want me to do it myself?

The black sword slashed through the wall of the side hall,

The oncoming Phoenix constellation blasted out with great force, and the vessel full of water shattered.

He fell against the wall, trying to raise his head, looking at the familiar people in front of him, the strange little universe,

"This power, you are ......."

The black clothes covered Andromeda's body, and the reborn god raised the long sword in his hand and said indifferently.

"Hades, Hades."
