Becoming a Saint Seiya since the Age of Mythology

"Don't worry, sister, he shouldn't bother you for now!" Sasha put away her divine spear and holy armor, reverting to her girlish appearance in a white gauze dress, and comforted her.

The Holy War is not over yet, so Hades should not be distracted for the time being.

"I hope so!" Persephone sighed softly.

The Holy War will not distract Hades, but that is only one possibility.

Even if Hades came knocking on her door right now, she wouldn't be surprised at all.

Thinking of this, she felt increasingly uneasy and immediately said, "Alright, things here are resolved, I should go back now! See you again someday!"

"Are you leaving again so soon, sister?" Sasha asked, a little reluctant.

"It's better to go back sooner! It would be terrible if that annoying guy tracked us down!" Persephone shook his head and waved to clean up the traces he had left behind.

After doing all this, she waved to Sasha and opened a dimensional portal to leave the Yellow Springs Rift.

Meanwhile, taking advantage of the break between the two goddesses' conversation, Wuxin and Defteros took it upon themselves to clean up the battlefield.

It is worth mentioning that, seeing that the situation was not good, Tianmengxing Radamanthys had already escaped from the Yellow Spring Rift, which made Wuxin feel very regretful.

After Wu Xin and the others gathered all the seriously injured Saints together and fed them Moon Essence Water to stabilize their last bit of life, the many seriously injured Saints were finally able to save their lives.

Unfortunately, Pope Sage had already perished at the hands of death, and even his body had turned into a pile of charred remains, with no possibility of recovery.

Chapter 355 The Grim Situation

After cleaning up the battlefield, Wuxin and the others returned to the Holy Land under Sasha's leadership.

Sasha then held funerals for the many fallen Saints and announced his safe return, stabilizing the uneasy hearts of the Sanctuary.

After doing all this, all the Gold Saints gathered at the summit of the sacred mountain, their hearts heavy with sorrow.

Currently, apart from Goshin and Defteros, all the other Gold Saints are injured.

El Cid was the most seriously injured, in particular.

The lightning strike from Death almost turned his body into a charred corpse. If it weren't for Wuxin using the Moon Essence Holy Water to preserve El Cid's last breath, this Gold Saint would have already perished.

Furthermore, El Cid's life force was severely depleted as he burned his life to gain power to fight against death, and his life force was like a candle flickering in the wind.

Left with no other choice, Wuxin had to freeze it to further solidify its fragile vitality.

As for Regulus and the other four, they were severely injured by Defteros, who was controlled by the Demon Fist, and it would be difficult for them to recover for a while.

It can be said that the Holy Land is now in an extremely weak state.

Knowing the dire situation in the Sanctuary as well, Sasha addressed the group, saying, "Although we successfully sealed the Grim Reaper, everyone is seriously injured. I have decided to adopt a defensive strategy against the Underworld for the foreseeable future, temporarily slowing down our offensive to allow everyone to recuperate."

No one objected; they all nodded silently.

Sasha continued, "During this recuperation period, our most important task is to heal everyone's injuries and allow the Sanctuary to recover its fighting strength as soon as possible."

"Therefore, we must find Odysseus of Ophiuchus as soon as possible."

"We need the help of this medical master!"

As she spoke, she glanced at everyone present with extreme heartache.

Apart from Goshin and Defteros, all the other Gold Saints were injured, and their injuries were quite severe.

"I'll go!"

Defteros stepped forward and volunteered.

He could clearly sense that his brother, who shared a soul with him and had once instigated a rebellion in the Holy Land, was very unnatural when facing this goddess.

Even after the battle in the Yellow Springs Rift ended, he kept his right eye closed, as if he didn't want to have any contact with anyone else.

Therefore, he planned to take this opportunity to go out and give his brother some time to adjust.

"You can't do it!"

Sasha shook her head slightly and said seriously, "I have another equally important task for you!"

"That's a task that only you can complete!"

"what?"

Defteros was somewhat surprised and quickly asked, "Lord Sasha, what exactly is the mission?"

“We’ll talk about that later!” Sasha replied with a smile.

Seeing this, Wuxin had no choice but to say, "Since Senior Defteros has other tasks, then leave the task of finding Odysseus to me!"

Currently, the only Gold Saint that Sanctuary can still deploy is Defteros.

As for the Bronze and Silver Saints below, it is not appropriate to send them out in such a dangerous situation.

Moreover, the mission to find Ophiuchus is urgent, and only a Gold Saint would be suitable.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Great Lord!" Sasha looked at Wuxin solemnly.

"Rest assured, my lord, I will find Ophiuchus as soon as possible!" Wuxin nodded emphatically.

Turning back, Sasha scanned the crowd and said, "Besides the Saints who can only be cured with medical means, there are two other Saints present who seem to be severely injured and cursed."

"Healing is not my forte, but dispelling curses is no challenge for me!"

"Bring Degel and Sisyphus up!"

Upon hearing this, Wuxin and Deftero quickly carried Degel, who was frozen in ice, and Sisyphus, who was covered in ominous black aura, to the front row.

Sasha extended her left hand, and a golden divine shield materialized in her palm.

As a divine artifact, Athena's Shield not only possesses powerful defensive capabilities but also a powerful purifying ability, capable of dispelling all curses and other special statuses.

She channeled her inner power into the divine shield, instantly releasing a golden beam that shone directly onto the frozen Degel.

Immediately afterwards, Wu Xin saw that the huge scale that had been floating behind Degel rapidly faded, and Degel's heart on the scale also faded, just like the snow in early spring, silently melting away in the spring.

Soon, the scales became faint and indistinct until they disappeared completely, leaving no trace.

At this moment, inside the ice, Degel also clearly felt a familiar heartbeat that he hadn't felt in his chest for a long time.

His restless blood, pounding with his heartbeat, flowed through his body once more.

"Have I broken free from the curse of the Celestial Beast Star?"

Realizing what was happening, Degel was overjoyed.

With a forceful tremor, cracks appeared on the ice covering his body.

When the cracks expanded to their limit, the entire ice seal shattered with a deafening roar, and endless shards of ice shot out in all directions.

But under Degel's control, the scattered ice shards immediately turned into wisps of cold air and dissipated into the air, without harming anyone present.

"Thank you so much..."

He immediately prepared to thank Sasha, but due to being frozen for a long time and still recovering from his serious injuries, he was not used to being suddenly unfrozen, and his legs went weak, causing him to kneel down on the ground.

"senior--"

Wuxin quickly helped him up, preventing Degel from falling and losing his composure.

"I'm fine!"

Degel shook his head, pushed Wuxin away again, and focused his energy on controlling his body. Only then could he barely stand up with his trembling legs.

"I'm so sorry, I lost my composure in front of the adults!" he quickly apologized to Sasha.

“It’s alright, your injuries haven’t healed yet, just sit on the ground like them!” Sasha nodded, then turned the shield around and shone the golden light on Sisyphus.

As the golden light descended, the ominous black aura surrounding Sisyphus began to dissipate rapidly, and his once-blackened golden armor regained its golden luster.

However, Sisyphus, still unconscious, showed no signs of waking up.

"It didn't work?"

Deferross was somewhat puzzled.

Seeing that the black aura around Sisyphus had completely dissipated, Sasha put away her divine shield and said seriously, "This is the task I'm entrusting to you, Aspros!"

Upon hearing the name, Defteros visibly stiffened before smiling and reminding him, "Lord Sasha, I am Defteros, not Aspros!"

"Yes, I know!"

Sasha nodded, her face serious, and said, "But I didn't call him by the wrong name, I called him Aspros!"

Upon seeing this, Defrost immediately fell silent.

After a long while, he slowly opened his right eye, which had been tightly closed, and uttered a slightly different sound.

"Then, Athena's reincarnation, how can I help you?"

Chapter 356 Aaron Awakens

Upon hearing Aspros's impolite address, many Saints were immediately outraged.

"Aspros, please use a respectful title when addressing Lord Sasha!" Regulus the little lion immediately reprimanded.

"Never mind! It's alright!"

Sasha wasn't angry. She immediately stopped the indignant crowd and smiled, saying, "Although he has merged with Defteros and fully regained his consciousness, he doesn't really accept me, the reincarnation of the goddess, in his heart!"

"However, that's alright. As long as he's still willing to serve the Holy Land and strive for peace in the world, that's enough!"

"But, Lord Sasha—"

"That's enough, that's enough!"

Regulus the lion cub was still unwilling, but Sasha interrupted him before he could finish speaking.

Seeing this, Regulus and the other Saints had no choice but to shut their mouths and say nothing more.

Sasha looked at Defteros, or rather Aspros, and said seriously, "My shield can dispel the ominousness on Sisyphus, but it cannot dispel the ominousness in his heart."

"Therefore, to truly awaken him, someone needs to enter the depths of his consciousness and dispel his psychological illusions!"

"But why me? Defteros could have done it too, right?" Aspros asked again.

To delve into the depths of Sisyphus's consciousness, one must use his 'Demon Emperor's Illusion Fist,' which allows him to manipulate a person's consciousness.

But besides him, his brother Defteros also knew this trick.
