Saint Seiya: From the Succession of the Underworld

The demonic man retreated.

and!

"Hahaha~~~"

Ernest then let out a near-maniacal laugh, and he said ferociously, "Everything, everything, is now in my hands. This empire belongs to me!"

And at this time.

A jet-black beam of light instantly pierced through the heavens and earth.

Not far from the capital.

The whole world is clearly visible.

"Ok?"

Ernest's smile vanished instantly, replaced by a grotesque grin that resembled that of a demon. He cruelly declared, "It seems there have been some minor changes, but as long as I possess that supreme and powerful Imperial Arm, everything is merely a matter of course."

The northern border of the empire.

This area is known as the northern tundra, where tribes gathered together and coalesced into a great northern nation.

just.

This country, however, has been completely defeated and has been reduced to individual tribes once again.

As for the reason?

Esdeath, hailed as the empire's strongest general.

She came here.

When she left.

Everything has settled down.

"Ok?"

The tall, perfect woman, dressed in a white military uniform and with long blue hair, raised her head, her icy blue eyes flashing with a sharp light.

"Is that the direction of the capital?"

"what is that?"

"A strong one?"

Esdeath seemed to be speaking in a murmur.

After a while.

A smile played on her lips as she leaped into the air, leaving behind only an order for the soldiers to return to the capital.

She vanished without a trace in an instant.

Given Esdeath's strength, even if she wanted to travel from the border of the Empire back to the capital, it wouldn't take her much time.

She could sense the terrifying power contained within that pitch-black pillar of light that pierced the heavens and earth.

this moment.

Esdeath felt her body trembling; she was completely aroused.

It's been a long time.

I haven't felt this way in a long time.

For Esdeath

She longs for battle.

She longs for battle.

just now!

She felt it, that powerful enemy who could defeat her, that intense excitement, it even made her feel like she was dying.

……

In the mountains, ten kilometers north of the capital.

Here.

This is the headquarters of an assassin organization called Night Raid.

Night Raid was a secret assassination unit established by the Revolutionary Army in order to overthrow the rule of the Empire.

Their usual task is to purge the corrupt bureaucrats, villains, nobles, and ultimately, the root cause of the empire's complete corruption: the ministers!

just.

In this world where darkness has penetrated deep into the human soul.

Are revolutionary armies really any good?

all.

It's just a recurring cycle.

When an empire is overthrown and a new empire is established, everything is just a cycle that repeats itself over time.

"Hill, are you alright?"

A lithe figure sped past at breakneck speed. It was a bold woman with long golden hair, a hot figure and attire, who resembled an older sister. She was Leone, a member of Night Raid.

At this moment.

Leone rushed over quickly, looking at the dark pillar of light that was so close at hand.

She called out urgently.

That's right.

Another member of the night raid, named Hill, was on patrol today, but she never expected that something like this would happen.

Normally.

Hill is a bit of a ditz, absent-minded, and can't do anything right, so she's never assigned any daily tasks.

Nowadays.

Hill wanted to help everyone, so he volunteered for the patrol mission.

Leone had agreed, saying he would watch from a short distance and nothing would go wrong. But unexpectedly, such a turn of events occurred, which made Leone extremely resentful of himself.

why?

why?

I have to agree to Hill's request to patrol!

"Leone, I'm fine."

A soft, weak voice came from behind, and Leone breathed a sigh of relief. She rushed over and, almost instantly, shielded Hill behind her.

It was only about twenty meters away from Leone.

The jet-black beam of light had begun to gradually recede.

"What the hell is this?"

"Is it a Teigu?"

Leone bowed slightly, and his body instantly changed, growing ears, claws, and a tail, making him look like a lion-man.

This is Leone's Imperial Arm.

The Lion King, King of Beasts!

Leone was ready for battle. Seeing this, Hill's eyes also flashed with a sharp light, and she picked up a huge pair of scissors that was as tall as a person.

It was Hill's Imperial Arms.

Two parts of all things, utterly captivating!

The two Night Raid members were on high alert at this moment. What they didn't know was that it was the God of Darkness who had descended upon this dark empire.

Chapter 16: The chasm between man and god is like an insurmountable barrier.

The jet-black beam of light gradually dissipated.

Instead, there was endless oppressive power.

In an instant.

Leone and Hill had already uncontrollably fallen to their knees.

Do not!

should say.

Only Hill was kneeling on one knee, if not for the support of her weapon.

Hill had already knelt down, just like Leone.

"Ha~~~"

"Ha~~~"

Leone and Hill were both panting heavily.

Leone's forehead was dripping with sweat, as if she had just been pulled from the water. She struggled to lift her head, her voice hoarse, and whispered with difficulty, "Who... such a terrifying sense of oppression... Is it that woman Esdeath? Or is it..."

Is this the power of God?

“Ker”.

"Relax a little."

"They are excellent candidates."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The voices of two women emanated from the dark pillar of light.

At this time.

As the black pillar of light dissipated, three figures appeared before Leone and Hill.

"Leone."

"Hill."

"It seems that we are now at the main base of the night raid in the northern part of the capital."

Jiang Chen glanced at the two women kneeling on the ground, his dark eyes filled with calm, and guessed where he was.

"..."

Leone and Hill stared intently at Jiang Chen.

Almost instantly.

The two of them seemed to have lost consciousness.

They both fell to the ground.

"Really are."

Persephone said gently, with a hint of helplessness, "How could these two children, as human beings, possibly withstand the gaze of the God of Darkness?"

"The darkness in people's hearts has been fully awakened."

"Continue."

"They will become complete puppets of darkness."

Kerr looked at the two women.

He naturally knew about the two women's situation.

Persephone raised her hand, and two brilliant streams of divine power flowed into their bodies, gradually calming the darkness.
