The scene before him made Ye Weiwei's heart stir slightly... This scenery was somewhat similar to the path of judgment that Kratos experienced in the God of War world.
If I'm not mistaken, those three enormous statues should be the three Inquisitors.
At this moment, they each hold sacred vessels representing justice and fairness, such as scales and swords, and quietly await the arrival of new souls to be judged.
"I'll wait here. Hero, please step forward to accept the trial. I believe it should be over soon." To avoid being recognized by the three high priests, Persephone did not intend to continue. Moreover, she could not stand in for Night during the trial.
The night has no meaning in this regard.
But when he arrived in the trial chamber, suddenly—
Suddenly, the three statues lit up with crimson eyes, their ominous postures and terrifying divine power descending from the sky and sweeping over everything, as if to crush the night and force their souls to kneel.
at the same time--
One of the statues' mouths actually opened and closed, uttering a deep, majestic voice: "O Olympus, you honored ones have been slain on the earth."
How could the incarnation of the true God die!
Do not proclaim it on earth, nor spread it in Greece, lest the followers of those other than the twelve Olympian gods rejoice, lest the rebellious god-killer continue to triumph and run rampant.
"Now let's begin the trial of the sinner Griffith..."
“Minos—there is no need for further trial. The man before us is undeniably evil, who has committed the heinous crime of murdering the most noble person in the world—we…”
"Our uncle, the sinner of Poseidon, the god of the sea, and his brother Ares, the god of war."
"Outrageous! Outrageous! Griffith is guilty! He should be executed immediately, his soul utterly shattered."
The three high priests uttered astonishing words, launching into such a bombshell statement, while terrifying divine power emanated from them, making it clear to everyone that they were not joking.
For a moment, Persephone, the Queen of the Underworld, wore an expression of disbelief, and was filled with utter horror and panic: ...!!
How could this be?
The three judges actually used fabricated charges to forcibly define Griffith as evil?
Their reason was that Griffith injured both the god of the sea and the god of war?
But—! That was clearly…
What kind of ultimate Greek joke is this?
Chapter 235 Come forth, my beloved eldest son—Minotaur!
Persephone wanted to step in and stop it.
Even as the Queen of the Underworld, she could not bear to see an unjust trial unfold before her.
However, before he could take a few steps forward, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of him—it was Hades, the god of the underworld.
The other party had his back to Persephone and did not turn around to look at her. He simply said, "Step back, Water Nymph Mingta. No one may interfere in the sacred judgment of the Inquisitor."
Hades said coldly, showing no interest in the woman behind him.
Persephone had previously lowered her head and moved forward with her head down because of her various inner feelings.
Therefore, when he and Griffith arrived, Hades did not pay attention to their appearance, in addition to the aura concealed by the invisibility cloak artifact and the obscuring effect of the laws of the underworld.
Hades, who was not the true King of the Underworld, was quite powerful and had considerable control over the Underworld, but he was not the God of the Underworld after all, and he failed to recognize Persephone's true form immediately.
This is just an avatar of his; if it were his true self, he might be able to recognize who the woman behind him is.
And now-
Clearly, the other party had overheard the conversation between the hero Griffith and the water nymph, which had traveled all the way from the Gates of Hell, and thus regarded the Queen of the Underworld as a mere handmaiden of Hades.
Meanwhile, Persephone, whom His Majesty personally addressed as Minta, was stunned.
Here's a joke: the mighty King of the Underworld couldn't even recognize his own wife.
Persephone instantly became alert—putting aside the most unlikely possibility, that was the truth.
She found it hard to believe that someone would dare to impersonate Hades in the underworld.
Despite being so close, the three judges on the other side remained completely indifferent.
Persephone couldn’t believe that even she could discover Hades was an imposter, while the three Inquisitors couldn’t.
Those who wield a portion of the laws of the underworld and can judge all souls that enter it are like those with true vision; all pretense is exposed under their gaze that can see directly into souls.
But what caused these judges to choose to turn a blind eye?
Danger—! Realizing that this 'Hades' identity might be even more terrifying than imagined.
...The weaker Persephone did not expose his opponent immediately, lest he put himself in danger.
On the other hand, she was powerless to help Ye.
at this time--
The three judges gathered together in the central trial corridor, creating an area resembling the Colosseum of ancient Rome.
Then countless robes of death, draped in black and wielding scythes, floated out and attacked the night.
Neither the three judges nor Hades made a move.
They believed that Griffith, having lost all his divine artifacts, could not possibly defeat so many underworld 'death gods' in his soul form alone.
Even the souls of great heroes are incredibly fragile after death; those who are slightly weaker are in danger of dissipating simply from the winds of the underworld.
It's already astonishing that Griffith could physically overpower Cerberus, but even if he still retains a considerable amount of offensive power, his soul's defensive capabilities shouldn't have increased.
Its fragile body would be torn to pieces if the scythe of death were to touch it even lightly.
The judges were so confident.
After all, since the birth of the underworld, countless souls in Greece have failed to pass this trial.
They could almost see Griffith writhing on the ground in agony after being lightly slashed.
however--
When faced with multiple enemies attacking all at once, Ye, who had no weapons but his fists, chose the most efficient way to fight.
Instead of dodging, he actually charged straight at him.
Then, the dragon's claw manifested, grabbing a scythe and making a piercing sound as sparks flew. At the same time, Night swung the scythe and Death together.
This Grim Reaper is not the same as the other Grim Reaper. He has no divine status and is merely a servant transformed from the souls of the dead who served the gods of the underworld. In Ye's eyes, his threat level is nothing special.
He then charged directly into the storm of scythes, letting the attacks strike him and create countless sparks. Relying solely on primal violence, he rampaged through the enemy ranks and slaughtered a large number of Death's minions.
Radamanthys, one of the three judges, looked at the scene before him with a sense of existential unease.
As the son of Zeus, he was also one of the offspring of Europa, the grandmother of Europe and the first woman in Europe.
Born into a noble family and having served as King of Crete for a period of his life, he had never seen a being so ferocious even after death, despite witnessing countless Greek heroes during his reign.
He was simply not a product of the Greek world.
'monster'--!!
Just then, Minos, who was also a judge and had usurped the throne from Rhadamanthus during his lifetime, suddenly spoke up: "I have another way."
"Since the target of this trial is a monster that cannot be judged by common sense, then let it fight against a true monster. Come forth, Minotaur!! Your time has come!"
That's right, the Minotaur.
That infamous maze monster.
The three Inquisitors were convinced of the monster's power, finding it even more reliable than Cerberus.
After all, the era in which they lived was the era in which the Minotaur existed.
The king at that time was Minos.
Every year, he would offer male and female sacrifices to appease the terrifying bull-headed beast.
That year, he offered up a man named Theseus, but unexpectedly, not only did he achieve the fame of a hero, but the man also abducted his daughter.
Nevertheless, the judges never doubted the Minotaur's power.
Theseus could not have achieved his great feat so easily if he hadn't received help from the princess and been guided by the online group to find the drunken Minotaur and launch a sneak attack.
Although Minos loathed the deformed monster born from his wife's infidelity—no, from stealing a cow—under Poseidon's curse, he had to admit that the power of this half-grown son was quite useful.
He harbored disgust while controlling the spirit of the deceased to continue fighting for him in the afterlife. Over the years, through continuous battles, the spirit has regained its former strength.
Unlike those fragile, dead souls who have transformed into servants of death, the Minotaur now possesses the same powerful body as in life.
He didn't believe that any hero could defeat such a monster with his bare hands.
Unless Hercules ventures into the Underworld again!
Boom! ! Accompanied by the sound of a huge gate being pulled open.
A terrifying roar suddenly rang out from the cow.
Night also heard the words of the underworld judge's loud pronouncement earlier—and immediately perked up, 'Minotaur'!
That innocent monster?
No, no, we cannot change our preconceived notions and arbitrarily define this Minotaur, the infamous king of monsters, just because of some parallel world settings.
Even he couldn't determine the true nature of the Minotaur in this world; perhaps he would find out after meeting him once.
If you ask why a single meeting is enough to make a judgment...
Because dragons are the most brutal monsters in the world!
Chapter 236 Power so strong it could kill a god, an abnormality beyond reason—die! He must die!
If a true king of monsters cannot even distinguish between real and fake monsters, then he would be a laughingstock!
Although Night's dragon transformation is just a skill similar to a transformation.
But when he exercised that wild instinct, that most primal power, he did have the illusion of being reborn in despair and sorrow, transforming into a bloodless and tearless monster.
By discarding all superfluous 'humanity' and abandoning the worthless 'divinity' that monsters would even despise and loathe, all that remains is utter 'demonicity'.
That moment will undoubtedly be the most brutal, powerful, and terrifying moment of its arrival in the form of a dragon.
Absolute violence! They can't even tolerate the slightest bit of disgust.
If they are merely collections of desires controlled by superfluous humanity or simple feeding instincts and cravings, they are not even worthy of being called third-rate monsters, and Ye doesn't even have the qualifications (or the idea) to completely transform into a dragon to deal with them.
Perhaps this minotaur, who is undoubtedly the king of monsters in many worlds and other worlds, can bring him some wake-up call.
