Chapter 21: The Beastmaster's Fangs (4)

"I told you to be quicker, Tanatos."

"I told you that I don't want to touch any of those corpses, Hypnos!"

Death's gaze gradually descended, looking down at the guardian of the fifth house.

"Pluto fighters are nothing but a bunch of slaves, and when they die, they die.

It's just that the slave is killed, and as the master, he has to take care of it. ”

In Aeolia's eyes, there was only a man with blond hair and golden eyes left in the low sky, and his clothes were much more luxurious than Minos just now, giving people a solemn and quiet feeling.

However, just now there were two voices,

Where else did it go?

"Saint Seiya, where are you looking?"

Aioria was startled, only to find that another person was standing two or three meters in front of him, looking at him lightly.

His hair and eyes were silver, and unlike the man standing low, he exuded a powerful and violent aura. The small universe is like the starry sky and the abyss, and the bottom limit cannot be measured.

There is no doubt that this guy is not human, but only - God!

"Death...... Thanatos? ”

"Oh, Golden Saint Seiya...... There are also mortals who know our names? Instead of taking advantage of the opportunity to attack, Thanatos asked, "Did that Gemini tell you?" ”

"There's one thing I'd like to confirm." Aioria said in a deep voice, "Fourth house, the Golden Saint Seiya of Cancer......."

Leo's question comes to an abrupt end because the other person has already given an answer.

The Grim Reaper raised his arms, golden shards scattered between his fingers.

"Really......" Aioria straightened up, her knuckles snapping with too much force.

The badly wounded skeleton groaned, but the furious fist swung out without fail.

"Lightning - Bolt!"

【Aeolia ......】

The zenith of the Nordic Asgard Palace, the self-moving wheel of the zodiac, has lost its former glory.

The girl held the golden pocket watch in both hands and looked closely at the lion in the fifth house.

It seems that as long as there is a moment of distraction, a place of light will be extinguished again on the zodiac.

[It's okay for a moment, Aeolia...... You want...... Survive! 】

Raging thunder dominates the view, like the fangs of a lion trying to devour its enemies.

Thanatos didn't dodge or retreat, taking a step forward into the range of Lightspeed Punch's attack,

His hands were propped up in front of him, intercepting the punch.

"Lightspeed Fist?

It's a little different from that Gemini, 50 million, 80 million per second,

No, is there 87 million punches? ”

A white mist erupted from Tanatos' palm, which was the water vapor that had evaporated after the over-frequency fist pressure had been extinguished.

"Indeed, this level is enough to deal with the Warriors of the Underworld.

But in the eyes of God...... Still too immature. ”

As he spoke, he crossed his right arm,

"Let me tell you, what a qualified attack is!"

Aioria turned to the side and covered her left arm behind her, leaving only her right hand slightly diagonally in front of her, her eyes glancing left and right.

He knew that the other party's speed must be faster than his own, and if his physical condition was slightly better, he might still be able to maneuver, but if he took another blow to this situation, he might not be able to stand up, and he couldn't be careless.

"I'm here."

There was a sudden darkness in front of him, and the Grim Reaper was already standing on Aeolia's left side, only a few dozen centimeters away from him.

Even, just a punch can hit him in the heart.

With a flick of Thanatos's arm like a whip, Aeolia's entire body seemed to be bent from the waist, and was bounced out by a strong force, and after breaking three or four stone pillars in a row, it smashed deep into the last wall of the Lion Palace, and the still trembling eyes were almost out of consciousness.

"So weak, this is Athena's strongest warrior, the Golden Saint Seiya?"

Thanatos walked step by step, but Aioria could no longer see clearly, only a vague shadow was moving in his vision, and there were countless buzzing sounds in his head, and every movement of his body was a continuous sharp pain.

"Thanatos, no matter how good he is, he's only human. As gods, we are far superior to them, and this comparison doesn't make much sense. ”

Hypnos descended to the ground,

"That makes sense."

Thanatos wasn't fast, but he was only a few steps in front of Aeoria and his left hand reached out and grabbed Aeoria by the neck, tearing him off the wall.

"Kara-", the fragments of the walls peeled off little by little, and the breastplate of Leo's holy clothes was also crawling with cracks.

"Legend has it that the Golden Sacred Vestment, which has not been damaged since the time of mythology, is not as strong as expected, but it is not bad. Unfortunately, your body is too weak. ”

As if noticing Leo's struggle, Hypnos on the side said lightly.

"Leo, we as gods disdain to be stained with meaningless blood.

Your badly wounded body can't stop us at all. ”

Feeling the unsubsided force between his fingers, Thanatos sneered,

"Golden Saint Seiya, bow down before us.

Confess that Athena is not, and confess her sins.

In that case, not only will I spare you, but I may also continue your small life.

You humans have many dreams that you want to come true, right? ”

【Dream ...... Is it? 】

In the shattered memory, a beautiful smile gradually emerged.

Indeed, I would like to ...... Pick up that dream with your own hands.

It's just, for the fighters, for the Golden Saint Seiya,

I still have something that I have to carry out, something to protect!

The lion's eyes grew clearer, and he slowly spoke his answer.

"Infatuation...... Delusion! ”

A beam of light flashed, and Thanatos turned his face sideways, easily dodging the attack,

But this answer, this rejection, is an insult to God!

The face of the Grim Reaper gradually turned hideous, throwing Leo's body out.

"Then I will fulfill you, foolish mortal!"

Aioria struggled to hold her body, her legs trembling from pain and detachment as if she was going to kneel down in the next moment.

In front of him, Thanatos held up a purple ball of light with his hands held in the air.

The expanding universe sweeps the corridors of the fifth house and hits Leo's near.

The speed of light fist refracted and staggered, blocking in front of the power of the gods, but after all, it could only slow down its steps.

"It's not over yet, Leo!"

In the palm of Tanatos' hand, another, even larger ball of light reappeared.

"Rest in death, sinner!"

Two purple light bullets overlapped, shattering the lion's fangs.

The golden shards peeled off and intertwined into a colorful scene before his eyes.

Such a gorgeous light,

It's like...... When I first saw the holy clothes, it was ordinary.

[Aeolia, wearing this Leo gold holy garment means giving up the past. 】

[Do you really not regret it? 】

I can't give an answer, not because I don't know the answer.

I just don't want to disappoint the teacher.

Now......

In the exploding purple turbulence, everything disappeared invisibly.

Thanatos snorted in satisfaction, dispersing the dust.

"Let's go, Hypnos, it's time to go to the next house."

The twin gods slowly walked into the devastated battlefield, and the sleeping god in the rear frowned,

"Thanatos!"

Death's footsteps paused, and the stunned expression stayed on his face.

[God, even if you break through this lion palace, you won't be able to go far!] 】

Straight rays of light appeared, followed by a diagonal downward path of light superimposed on it, followed by horizontal and vertical lines.

The web of light had already completed its attack before the god of death could react.

The hot, cheek-brushing trail lasted less than a ten-thousandth of a second before disappearing.

Thanatos' helmet was split in half, leaving a bloody streak on his face.

It's just ...... Lightspeed Punch?!

The speed of my fist that I didn't even react to?!

"Leo...... I'm going to tear you to pieces! ”

Thanatos said furiously, his unspeakable anger roaring through the lion's palace, as if it was about to collapse the palace in the next moment.

The next second, however, his anger was stopped by the sleeping god's arm.

"What do you want to do, Hypnos?!"

"Stop, Tanatos.

Angering the body of the deceased is a loss of godly identity. ”

Hypnos stepped forward and pointed forward with the other hand.

"The dead? What are you talking about?! He's justβ€”"

Thanatos could not finish his words, and the anger in his eyes froze.

In front of him, a golden figure gradually appeared.

The guardian of the fifth house, Leo maintains the movement of his right hand fist, and there is no breath left.

[Regret..... Is it? 】

[Although there are regrets in this life, ...... I have never regretted it. 】
