Saint Seiya: From the Succession of the Underworld

It would be the strangest thing if we didn't know that things had progressed to this point.

Hera knew it very well.

If you only reach the level of a God-King, it's completely meaningless. In this chaotic game, without the strength of an ancient god, being merely a God-King only grants you the qualification to protect yourself.

go away.

Sometimes, it is indeed a better choice.

Poseidon nodded, but didn't say anything more.

but.

He glanced at another figure standing not far away, a figure that looked like a child.

Cupid!!!

Cupid was the child of Ares and Aphrodite, but even Ares and Aphrodite never truly sensed or understood the special nature of this child.

can.

Ares had experienced enough and seen enough, and naturally he also saw the divine power contained within Cupid. He pondered for a moment, but ultimately did not speak of it.

some things.

Let them discover it naturally; no matter how much others say, it's meaningless.

not to mention.

Many things are meaningless when said by others.

"..."

Hera noticed Poseidon's gaze and seemed to be deep in thought. After considering it for a moment, she glanced at Aphrodite's worried eyes and said nothing more, lost in thought.

Regarding Aphrodite's situation.

Hera was well aware of this; she was a fickle goddess who, despite loving Ares, had countless lovers, both men and women.

Every beauty warrior is a gigolo.

but!

If.

In such circumstances, is Cupid, the child born, very special?

"Cupid..."

Hera wondered to herself, "What is so special about this child?"

Hera had something she couldn't understand, but she didn't think about it deeply. At this point, any further deep thought would be meaningless.

and……

At this moment, Ares emerged from the portal, seemingly unchanged from when he left. Poseidon, however, smiled and said softly, "Ares, congratulations, you have succeeded."

"..."

Ares remained silent, simply watching Poseidon. Poseidon smiled casually, raised his hand, and a stream of light appeared. His soul began to dissipate, and the status and origin contained within it seemed to merge into Ares's body.

It can be said.

This is an extremely dangerous thing. Gods are not something that can be devoured casually. If you want to devour someone, it is never an easy thing.

There is a very high possibility that problems will arise here.

Looking at it now?

This is absolutely beyond doubt.

Therefore!

Ares remained calm, forcing himself to control everything. This was his last chance, his final opportunity. If he failed again, then it would all be over.

Chapter 126: The Ancient Gods Awaken, the Seal of the Twelve Titan Gods is Lifted

Time passes.

Devour!

absorb!.

This is indeed very difficult.

can.

Ares knew very well that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he had to seize it.

not to mention.

Poseidon also truly gave up everything.

all in all.

It seems extremely difficult, extremely challenging.

But Ares remained steadfast, seized control of the sea, devoured Poseidon's status and essence, and became the new king of the gods.

"Whoo~~~"

Ares exhaled a small breath of stale air.

next moment.

A terrifying divine power began to emanate from Ares' body.

After Ares devoured Poseidon's essence and status, he did not inherit the laws of the Sea God. Instead, he simply integrated the essence and status into himself, thereby strengthening himself.

Ares is now a true god of war!!!

"Ares..."

Seeing this, Hera's lips curled into a deep smile; her child had finally succeeded.

"Mother!"

Ares nodded seriously, turned to look at Aphrodite and Cupid, and slowly clenched his fist, feeling the divine power that was on a completely different level compared to before.

This is the true divine power of the God-King, which is incomparable to anything before.

It can be said.

At this moment.

Ares could truly feel how vast and astonishing the difference was between the King of Gods and ordinary gods, like heaven and earth.

"Whoo~~~"

Ares finally let out a slow breath and said calmly, "Alright, Mother, Aphrodite, Cupid, I have succeeded. Now..."

Speaking of it.

Ares fell into a brief silence.

stay!

leave!

These are two paths facing Ares: should he choose to leave?

For Ares, after he stepped into the realm of the God-King, it was possible for him to leave this place through some special means; it wasn't that there was absolutely no way.

and.

Everything Poseidon left behind exists in Atlantis in this way.

In other words.

If he wanted to leave, it didn't seem like a particularly difficult thing, but was Ares really going to do it?

If I were to choose to stay...

So!

Ares knew very well that this water was extremely deep, a game that could contain a colossal beast capable of swallowing everything, and that it might completely devour him.

Right now, I can only be considered a slightly more powerful boss on the game table, although I already have a certain amount of influence.

just.

For me, this only means I have the qualification to participate; it doesn't mean I'm actually qualified to be a game player.

Can only say.

Everything is changing too fast.

once!

The God King is qualified to enter this game as a player, even if that player is a little weak. But right now, the God King can no longer enter the game table.

"Ares."

Hera noticed Ares' hesitation and smiled, saying, "Whatever choice you make, I will support you."

"but."

"Remember, once you've made a choice, don't regret it. You must truly walk down this path!"

"Ok!"

Hera's words made Ares nod deeply, and he opened his mouth.

At this time...

In an instant, streams of divine power permeated the entire world, and everything seemed to fall into silence.

……

Hades.

This is a place where death gathers.

once.

In the Age of the Ancients and the Age of the Titans.

that time.

Before Hades created the underworld, the underworld had always been a place that contained everything.

of course.

In that era, the Golden Age, the concept of life, death, and reincarnation did not exist, and there was no need for the underworld to operate.

The underworld is different now.

With Hades' death, the cycle of life and death, which was originally the responsibility of the Underworld, returned to the Underworld once again, and the entire Underworld began to bustle and naturally started to function again.

And at this moment.

The underworld, on the other hand, began to emit a different aura.

as if.

The underworld, which was once just a peaceful place, is now beginning to seem to come alive. The underworld was once just a machine, but now it seems to have begun to have life.

This feeling is very wonderful.

But this also proves one point.

One of the ancient gods.

Tartarus, the god of the underworld.

He woke up.

The figure with black hair and a black divine robe stood quietly in the underworld, seemingly lost in thought, sensing something.

After a while.

He shook his head, a calm smile on his face, and said, "It seems that as the earth changed, Gaia awoke. However, because of Izanami's prior preparations, was Gaia also captured?"
