Manga from the Age of God

"Well, I'm back."

Page 259

Ash nodded in response with a smile, and took the initiative to hold Athena's hand.

And with a gesture of intimacy that would never be done before, he wrapped around the other's slender waist.

In fact, he did not know the difference between the body and the true spirit.

It was only faintly felt that the goddess in front of her did not seem to be greatly affected after receiving the "contamination" of the true spirit.

You can still maintain a normal attitude towards yourself.

However, since things have developed to the point where they are now, it is not good for Ashe to pretend to say "still a friend" anymore.

Then show your "fangs" in advance.

He has always liked to be honest with people.

In addition, Yaxiu is actually a little worried, if he is also calm now, pretending not to care.

I am afraid that the relationship between the two will return to the previous indifference and peace, not far or near.

So it's best to pick as soon as possible.

Even if it takes a little risk. ...but no matter how embarrassed the goddess was, she couldn't slap him to death.

This point has long been in the world of 973 "God Killer", and Ash has asked the true spirit either overtly or covertly.

And got a vague, but more positive answer.

Sure enough, being held by Yaxiu like this, Athena did not even produce a rigid signal of resistance, and seemed to acquiesce to the relationship between the two.

She froze for a while, then turned her head in embarrassment.

Looking at the Nebula Lake in the distance.

After being silent, he finally let out a long sigh: "As early as [*] years ago, I could have noticed that the gate of time and space here was gradually dissipating." "So that's the case... It's the world we live in, and we're leaving. Creator."

"So, the gates of time and space connecting other parallel universes will also be closed."

"All existences in the future will be locked in the [cage] of this world."

"Maybe apart from you, there will be no gods who can explore the world... Ash." Athena turned her eyes again, and her beautiful eyes fixed on the black-haired boy who was close at hand.Deep in the eyes of the beautiful goddess, there was a touch of daze and unease, and she muttered: "I am actually very worried that the door to the world will be closed in the future, which means that God the Father will never return." Clothes, the earth will never reappear..." "The last ray of hope has completely disappeared."

"And without the divine clothes, how can we, the gods of Olympus, resist the [Chu Zhen] of the Titans?" "I'm still here."

At this time, Yaxiu had no way to erase the anxiety in Athena's heart.

All he could do was show his confidence.

"No matter what happens in the future... it's all mine."

Reaching out his hand to embrace the beautiful goddess in front of him, Yaxiu's voice was soft, but with an oath-like solemnity: "I will stay in this world and face it with you."

"...No, I will stand in front of you in the future and block any wind and rain for you."

"Try to believe me!"

Athena silently closed her eyes and skillfully leaned her face in front of Ashe.

At this moment, she seemed to wake up faintly, why her true spirit would fall willingly.

After all, intelligent creatures are afraid of being alone.

Especially when under great pressure. .

Chapter 6 The power settled in the depths of the earth

"After so many years, it seems that there has been no change in God's Domain."

Standing side by side with Athena by the wide terrace on the highest floor of the temple, Ashe looked down at the [*]th Zodiac, the guardian of the zodiac below, and the original environment around the Divine Realm, feeling a little emotional.

There are still so many palaces built by himself, and there is no increase.

Even the location and furnishings are exactly the same as they were [*] years ago.

He continued to look further afield.

The city of Athens seems to have been enlarged quite a bit.

But the overall civilization of mankind is still maintained in the era of city-states.

It's just...a bit more advanced than before he left.

The nearby city-states are forming some kind of [alliance].

That already has the embryonic form of imperial society. "what?"

Yaxiu suddenly froze for a moment, looking at the city of Athens in the distance, his spiritual sense spread with all his strength, and he carefully observed the humans in the city. "You feel it too?"

Athena beside him sighed and said: "Yes, after so many years of continuous changes, the mysterious blood of human beings has become very small... and a small number of people are completely ordinary."

Due to the rapid degeneration of bloodlines, even if Yaxiu has passed down a correct and complete worldview in God's Domain, it is difficult for another fighter to break through to the sixth sense.

Now the human fighters in the realm of the gods are all ordinary people with more sensitive five senses.

Even if they continue to work hard all year round because of their belief in the goddess, no one can successfully open up the source of miracles and master any form of [miracle].Recalling the recent situation of God's Domain, Athena said helplessly: "Perhaps for human beings, this is a sad era." "No."

Yaxiu shook his head, showing a confident smile: "For human beings, this is actually the best era!"

After losing the supernatural and mysterious, I am afraid that the gods will gradually become less interested in human beings.

Then everything will go back to the original direction.

The gods are high in the heavens, and except for the careerists such as Pluto and Sea King, they will no longer intervene in the human world.

In this special period of getting rid of the prestige of the gods, human civilization will develop at a high speed with a more vigorous attitude, and finally reach the prosperity of modern society.

What's more, not all mysteries are lost.

Athena will give humans the power to protect the earth on their own, and even hide the hope of becoming a god as a mortal.

Although that hope is very slim.

It is so slim that after so many years of the original work, no Saint Seiya has succeeded. "Tell me, why did you suddenly put on the sacred clothes~v?"

Retracting his gaze from observing humans, Yaxiu looked at the heroic goddess beside him, and deliberately teased in a relaxed tone: "I think I, the Pope, haven't had time to do anything too hateful, at least not. It's hateful to the point where the goddess needs to put on a sacred garment to shock her once she returns." Do you also know that you are the pope of my goddess for the time being?

Athena's beautiful eyes turned slightly and glared at him.

Inwardly, he quite enjoys this relaxed atmosphere of equal communication.

After falling out with the gods of Olympus and determined to protect the earth, she has not seen her former relatives and friends for a long time.

Because of Typhon's pressure, because of the pressure of Hades and Neptune, Athena's heart was always tight.

But it cannot be released and relieved by pouring out on people.

Now the appearance of Ash and the strange twist in the relationship between the two.

It made up for the part of normal social interaction that Athena lacked, allowing her to re-experience the ease of getting along with her relatives and friends.

and cherish it even more.

"Before meeting you, I just attended a discussion meeting of the gods of the heavens."

After a moment of silence, Athena's pretty face had a touch of sadness, and she rarely showed a weak expression, and said in a low voice, "It's a discussion about the ultimate ownership of the earth - the gods have actually discussed it several times before. already."

"Although I have the orthodox name granted by the Father, as the Father has been missing for longer and longer, the two uncles have become less and less concerned about that [name]." "According to the recent postures revealed. , they are ready to use force to seize the ownership of the earth!" Yaxiu looked at the beautiful face in front of him, and suddenly raised his hand with a smile.

Gently pressed the other side's slender eyebrows, slowly smoothed the tightly locked eyebrows, and said softly: "The so-called soldiers come to block, water comes to cover, as long as we can build a [platform], we don't need to What are you worried about." "Frustrating Pluto and Sea King several times, maybe it can shock the king of monsters in the dark, killing two birds with one stone..." Athena was stunned, and a faint cloud appeared on her pretty face.

In my heart, I really enjoyed the gentleness of Yaxiu.

In the end, the goddess gave a soft "um" sound.

In fact, before this return, although she and Yaxiu were friends on the surface, but because of the huge disparity in strength, they both understood deep down.

The so-called "friends" are just some kind of rhetoric.

Perhaps the relationship with other gods and the Pope is closer, but the gap between the man and the god still exists.

But now... the gap between man and God was gradually filled because of the strange experience in the world of "Godslayer", and then he was shamelessly forcibly crossed by Asher.

Every man who can successfully catch a woman is undoubtedly thick-skinned.

The same goes for chasing the goddess.

If Ya Xiu pretended to be reserved, he would always be haunted by the huge power gap between the two.

Even if the two have peculiar experiences in the world of "Godslayer", I am afraid they will still return to the normal relationship between the Pope and the goddess.

Of course, this ease is not superficial.

If she pretends to be easy, how can Athena not see it?

That would only make her always remember the "gap between man and God", and then entangle and alienate her.

Yaxiu relies on his strong self-confidence and believes that in the future, he will be able to far exceed the single-universe level, so he can really deal with it calmly. Sometimes, arrogance is not necessarily a bad thing.

Only in this way can Athena gradually forget the identity gap between the two when they get along, and finally remove the majestic mask of the goddess, just like getting along with friends as casual and real.

All feelings come from sincerity and sincerity.

The truth of taking off the mask is undoubtedly extremely important.

"Actually, for a long time, I have had some unsolvable doubts about the gods competing for the earth. Looking at Athena in front of him, Ash hesitated for a moment, but still asked curiously: "Why do Pluto and Sea King attach so much importance to this piece of land, and have to seize the ownership of the land?" "With the size of a single cosmos-level god, you don't need to care about a small projectile like the earth, right?" The reason inside is very complicated. "

Athena did not hide anything, and said solemnly: "There are two uncles who were unwilling to lose to the Father God, and there are also dissatisfaction with the existing human beings, but the biggest reason... (Nuo Zhaohao)"

"It's because in the depths of the earth, there is a mysterious power originating from the beginning of the world. . . . Including the Father God, all faintly feel that it should be the [direction] that the gods such as me lead to a higher level!" This is a secret that, apart from the three brothers of the Father God, only I, the god who has obtained the power to rule the earth, know it.”

"Originally, no gods can move that power, and it has always been firmly deposited in the center of the earth... But some time ago, it seems that because the world was separated from the embrace of the [Creator], it has gradually begun to spread out!" "Now it is just relying on God Father Apocalypse comes to suppress, I am afraid that it will explode completely soon!" With a slight pause, Athena suddenly continued thoughtfully: "If my perception is correct... that mysterious power may be for you. Awakening the [will of the gods] will be of great help." Awakening the will of the gods?

Ash was shocked.

He was just about to ask a detailed question, but Athena quickly turned her eyes, Meimei looked at the sky, with a little surprise in her expression. .

Chapter 7 Artemis

Feeling the surprise of Athena beside her, Ash also subconsciously followed her line of sight to the past.

Then I saw a ray of light suddenly appear in the sky.

In the next moment, the bright sun was in the sky, but a hazy moonlight passed through the entire Divine Realm and landed in front of Athena with ease.
