Chapter 1456 Necessary Hatred

Sea of ​​golden apple trees.

The Hundred-Eyed Argus supported a giant sword as big as a mountain in both hands and stood in the sea of ​​golden apple trees like a mountain pointing to the sky, as if his eyes containing countless stars were watching the entire sea of ​​golden apple trees.

Any intruder will be seen before he steps in, and his loud voice like a bell will resound throughout the sea of ​​golden apple trees, informing everyone that the invader is about to arrive.

Even the invasion in batches was meaningless. What he saw was all the invasion points of the entire invasion, and his words correctly arranged the movements of everyone.

Of course, arranging defensive tactics was not within the scope of Argus's expertise. The arrangement was decided by Cyrene, who was sitting on his shoulder.

"Still attacking. How persistent." Kullene looked at the sea of ​​golden apple trees. Although he did not have a broad enough vision, his knowledge was sufficient, covering almost all fields.

"Do you hate that girl? Her attack contains all kinds of negative emotions, hatred, jealousy, curses, malice, etc."

"There is no reason to hate it." Hundred-eyed Argus was extremely calm. His eyes never shifted for a moment, always staring at the sea of ​​golden apple trees.

"That is necessary hatred, a reason to act like this."

"Necessary hatred. This is a rather novel term. It sounds like it is justifying the evil deeds in front of us. It also sounds quite twisted."

"Then should the mistress of the underworld Kuer be overjoyed and excited to reap lives as the god of death Scorpio?" Countless stars flashed through the eyes of the hundred-eyed Argus and his voice resounded through the sea of ​​golden apple trees.

The gray roots twisted with hatred attacked again. They twisted their bodies and continuously whipped the rock-hard bark of the golden apple tree.

"Is it more terrible to be a god of death who takes lives out of hatred, or to be a god of death who takes lives without any feeling, or even with joy and joking?"

"Which side is the most suitable destination for the dead, Lord of the Underworld Kul?"

"My friend, you are looking too far ahead." Cyrene chuckled, pushed herself up, and landed from the shoulder of the Hundred-Eyed Argus.

"Be careful not to miss it."

"You will certainly see that, my cunning friend."

……

Blaze put on his gear, his hands clenched, adjusting to the arm armor that covered his shoulder and right hand.

[Anubis's right wrist armor]

[After removing the different colored totems, the incomplete yet pure Hui-shaped Nile totem equipment contains the deeds and power of the god Anubis, but this world does not allow it to awaken yet.]

He had never worn the equipment because it was incomplete and did not meet the conditions for use, but the stranger had a theory that if there was a prohibitive rule, there must be a way to circumvent it.

If the reason why this arm armor cannot be used is that [the world does not allow it to awaken], then just don't use it in the world.

The underworld of Kuer is a good place, outside this world and also the world after death.

Now that they had enough World Seeds made from the mud of life taken from the River of Chaos, they had to move on to the next step and meet Ereshkigal, the mistress of the Underworld Kul.

Facing an enemy with invincible power in the underworld, even Blaze would be nervous. He had felt this kind of power in a similar being like Hela, so he made every possible preparation. Ishtar floated on the side with her feet up, watching Blaze prepare. She hooked her finger, and the Three Star Belt and the Hunting Star Bow floated towards Blaze.

"Don't forget to bring this."

Blaze took the Star Hunter Bow and the Three Star Belt and asked.

"how about you?"

Blaze's question made Ishtar stunned for a moment, and for the first time, she, who was always confident and proud, showed an uneasy expression.

"What about me?"

"You let me go, what about you?" Blaze didn't want to give Ishtar the chance to play dumb, he repeated every word and spoke carefully.

"Don't think you can use me as your pawn. I'm doing this for you, so why not you go?"

“So, this is your duty as the Night Watchman, isn’t it? Returning the twelve fallen great souls, and Scorpio the God of Death is also within your responsibility.” Ishtar’s eyes were wandering, and she slowly drifted backwards, as if she was planning to solve the problem by running away.

"You said it yourself, Golden Sea of ​​Trees is the fallen Death Scorpio, and the one who is awake now is the normal Death Scorpio. She just looks out of control now, but strictly speaking, she is still carrying out her mission, so this has nothing to do with the Night Watch."

"This is about Ereshkigal, the God of Death. Have you given up?"

"Has anyone ever told you that you speak in an annoying way?" Ishtar fell to the ground, her face darkened, and she stomped her feet heavily as she walked back to Blaze.

"Yes, they also warned me not to talk to Scorpio, the god of death, saying that nine out of ten gods of death are crazy, one is a crazy woman, and the other is a hapless person."

"The old guy you know is really prescient." Ishtar held her forehead and sighed hard, "After meeting you, I almost let out all the anger in my life. After all, what's the point of asking me [What about you?]?"

"I have no power left. None at all. I am just a soul. What's the point of going there? As a hostage? Besides, I still have to maintain my power and authority with Ereshkigal..."

"You talk a lot. Let me ask you, why do you think I can do it?" Blaze turned his head and asked seriously.

"It has nothing to do with whether I have returned the first seven constellations, but the experience. I am not yet an adult, and it is difficult to even say that my life has reached a high point, let alone say that my past life was a low point. Can I be considered to have completed the seven realms of life?"

"Will I be able to convince Ereshkigal, the Scorpion God of Death, when I face him like this?"

"This..." Ishtar hesitated. She looked into Blaze's eyes, which were as dazzling as the sun, fiery and full of energy.

Because of Blaze's power, she had somewhat forgotten that the person in front of her was just a young boy.

"And I think if I appear in front of her, she won't think of me as someone who embraces death. That's me in a long, long time, not me now."

“Generally speaking, when faced with the statement ‘Only you are qualified’, people will nod and agree without hesitation.” Ishtar sighed helplessly and put her hands on her hips.

"No, generally speaking, people should know what is important and what is not. Aren't you, who has truly embraced death, more suitable than a young man like me?"
