"It's a pity there's no suppression material!"

Upon discovering that the Investiture of the Gods formation was beginning to crumble, Hawking couldn't help but let out a sigh.

If a power gem-level artifact, like the one used to seal Ego last time, were used as the core of the array, even Hades, the god of the underworld, would probably not be able to break through his seal so easily.

There's just no way around it; treasures like the Power Stone, which are condensed from the fundamental laws of the universe, become no different from ordinary stones once they leave their own universe.

Otherwise, Igor wouldn't need to be sealed now, and he could use it temporarily.

However, it wasn't a big problem, because after this short delay, he had already seen Athena, along with Kanon, Shaka, and the other Gold Saints, emerge from the Aries Palace.

"Sanctuary Barrier!"

Seeing Hades' soul struggling within Shun's body, Athena raised her scepter, and a warm and bright cosmos immediately filled the entire Sanctuary.

Because of Athena's barrier, Hades' struggles immediately diminished.

"Shun, what's wrong, Shun?"

Ikki, Seiya, and the other three surrounded Shun with worried expressions.

"It only temporarily suppresses Hades' soul. To save him, Hades' soul must be forced out of his body. Otherwise, Hades will completely take over Shun's body, and Shun will be beyond saving."

As Hawking explained, he glanced at Athena, or rather, Ms. Saori Kido, who was walking gracefully towards him.

Athena is different from Hades and Poseidon.

In each of Hades' holy wars, he would seek out the purest body in the human world to enter and gradually awaken his power, but his consciousness would always remain his own.

The original body's consciousness had always been sealed.

Poseidon's true form was destroyed in the age of mythology and then sealed in Athena's Jar for thousands of years. Each time, he was revived in the bloodline of a specific shipping magnate, the Thoreau family.

The consciousness after awakening is also Poseidon's consciousness.

However, Athena's true form has always resided on Mount Olympus, the earthly abode of the gods, and she would reincarnate into the human world every few hundred years before the start of a holy war.

The person reincarnated each time is not fixed, and their personality and abilities are different. Even after awakening, the consciousness and personality of the human host are the main factors, and Athena is only an assistant.

That's why situations arise where the Pope's assistance is needed; for example, Saori Kido was completely unaware of the activation of Athena's armor.

At the same time, because the main form is the human body, each Athena is different in many ways.

The Athena of the strongest mythological era was resourceful and possessed incredible combat power. She didn't need the Pope or the Saints to assist her; she could single-handedly overwhelm the Underworld, truly embodying the title of Goddess of War to its fullest extent.

Then there's Athena Sasha from the previous generation, who had an amazing start, appearing with a luxurious lineup of fifteen Gold Saints, each at their peak, the strongest generation of Saints, and the largest number of Saints.

The overall fighting power of the Saint Seiya is also the highest in history, and there is also the Pegasus Saint Seiya who was reincarnated to assist them.

As a result, although the Holy War was ultimately won, only two Gold Saints, Dohko and Shion, survived; all the other Saints perished in the battle.

Then look at Saori Kido in this generation. She had a truly hellish start. She was born with no ability to resist when she encountered the Saga Rebellion and was almost killed by her own Gold Saint.

Later, they could only rely on the Bronze Saints to turn the tide and return to Sanctuary, but this also led to the death of half of the Gold Saints when the Holy War began, and a large number of Silver and Bronze Saints died in the rebellion.

In the end, they had no choice but to risk going to the underworld for a desperate fight. Fortunately, the five Bronze Saints were strong enough, and Athena was the only one to defeat Hades' true form and completely end the Holy War.

The strongest support Athena of all time.

Speaking of this world, Hawking carefully recalled some information about his previous life and discovered that the water was much deeper than he had imagined.

The world of Saint Seiya seems to also have the concept of a multiverse, with many parallel universes and worlds. The strongest one seems to be called Chronos, the god of time, who manages the multiverse.

Next is Zeus, the all-knowing and all-powerful god and king of the Olympian gods, who seems to have disappeared long ago and whose whereabouts are unknown, leaving the heavens to his eldest son, the sun god Apollo.

This Apollo was incredibly powerful; legend has it that his strength surpassed the combined power of all the major gods, including Athena, Hades, and Poseidon, and that he could even demote the major gods to mortals.

Therefore, the gods of this world should not be underestimated.

There is also a legend that beyond the multiverse of this world lies a void, a place where all laws such as time and space are frozen, and even gods who enter it are imprisoned and unable to return.

This made him wonder if the worlds he was entering were also a void.

If one can traverse this void, wouldn't it be possible to find all sorts of worlds on one's own without needing a panel as an intermediary?

Of course, we'll have to wait until his strength surpasses that of others before considering that.

"Shun, you are my Saint, I believe you can expel Hades from your body!"

Athena came to Shun, cut her palm with the scepter of victory, and then placed her divine blood on Shun's forehead.

The blood of gods has powerful effects, or rather, the blood of powerful beings has powerful effects. Even Hawking's own blood is extraordinary.

If his blood were given to an ordinary person, it would be nothing short of a panacea, prolonging life and strengthening the body—that would be perfectly normal.

Sure enough, when Athena's blood came into contact with Shun's brow, the cosmos that had disappeared within Shun suddenly ignited, and his hair quickly turned from red to green.

"Ah, Athena, you little brat, I won't let you get away with this!"

Hades' soul let out a scream, then his cosmos suddenly erupted, breaking free from Hawking's God-Slaying Array and flying out of Shun's body.

"In that case, come with me to the Pure Land of Bliss!"

Emerging from Shun's body, Hades, though having lost his temporary physical form, no longer needed to gradually awaken his power. Instead, his cosmos surged forth, surpassing even his initial awakening, and swept towards Athena.

Athena was immediately alarmed upon seeing this, as she was not yet capable of contending with Hades' soul.

"Athena!"

The Gold Saints also changed their expressions drastically, unleashing their cosmos to stop Hades from kidnapping Athena.

"We've been waiting for you."

However, Hawking was different from everyone else; his expression revealed that he had expected this.

He quickly took out a vibranium rice cooker covered with talismans, deftly opened it, and began to cast his spells on Hades' soul.

"Demon Sealing Wave!"

A terrifying burst of energy erupted, instantly transforming into a vortex that engulfed Hades' soul and forcefully pulled it towards the rice cooker.
