Crossing the Saint Seiya, the strongest silver leads the gold

"I can easily remove your right to use the holy garment because I have obtained Athena's approval."

"In a sense, I am Athena's spokesperson."

"Of course you can think of me as a subordinate god of Athena."

"It's just an identity and a title, it's not important."

"What's important is that I represent Athena's will."

"You just heard it yourself. Athena doesn't want to return to the Sanctuary."

Sisyphus was stunned when he heard this, then he said excitedly: "How is it possible! Athena doesn't want to return to the Sanctuary, then what about the Holy War?"

"Without Athena leading us Saints, how can we fight the Holy War?"

Dongfang Long slammed the table and said, "Why do we need to fight a holy war?"

"Why do you want Athena to lead you in the holy war?"

Sisyphus said: "That is because there is an evil god who wants to rule the earth and bring disaster to mankind."

Chapter 193: Why should God fight for humans?!

Dongfang Long smiled: "I won't say whether this is true or not, even if it is so."

"Why does Athena have to fight endless holy wars for humanity generation after generation? Tell me, why?!"

"She is Athena," Sisyphus replied.

"Why?!" Dongfang Long shouted loudly, "Tell me why? Why does she have to fight for humanity? Who made this rule?!"

"Why should humanity's wars be fought by Athena?"

"Just because she's a god, a goddess who protects the earth, does that mean she must fight for humanity generation after generation?"

"Have you ever asked her? Have you ever asked her if she's willing to keep on being beaten like this?"

This question made Sisyphus stunned for a moment, because no one had ever thought about this question.

Dongfang Long continued, "Whether it's Athena, Hades, Poseidon, or any other god."

"Their souls are eternal and they possess eternal life."

"The universe is vast, and the stars are countless."

"The earth we live on is but a drop in the ocean of the universe."

"Perhaps, during the mythological era, they once fought for the right to rule this land."

"It's possible that he went on to fight several jihads later on."

"But was the subsequent holy war really just for the right to rule this planet?"

"Is it possible that they don't care about this land at all?"

"Maybe they cared at first, but later on it was just because the defeated gods couldn't stand it. They just wanted to defeat their opponents to save face."

"Is it also possible that, in the nearly ten thousand years since the mythological era, they've figured it out, are tired of fighting, and don't want to fight anymore?"

Sisyphus said, "Impossible! Every time a Poseidon awakens, it unleashes a tsunami, attempting to purify the world."

"Every time the Pluto awakens, it will launch a world-destroying war."

"How do you say that?"

Dongfang Long asked in return, "Is it really the will of the Sea Emperor that wants to evolve this world?"

"Is it really Hades himself who wants to start a world-destroying war?"

"Just like you found Sasha now."

"After each generation of the Sanctuary found Athena, they taught her from a young age that she was the reincarnation of Athena, and that she would fight for humanity and wage a holy war."

"You found all sorts of excuses to educate Athena's reincarnation, telling her that she had to fight the holy war. She was born to fight, but who among you gave her another choice?"

"Has anyone ever asked Athena's reincarnation if she wants to fight a holy war?"

"There is also the reincarnation of Hades and the reincarnation of Poseidon."

"Once they are found by the Pluto army or the Poseidon army, they are taught from childhood that they are the reincarnation of God. When they grow up, they will awaken and fight a holy war, defeat Athena, and gain dominion over the earth."

"Has anyone ever asked the reincarnated bodies of these gods? Do they still want to fight the holy war? Has anyone ever cared about their wishes?!"

"no!"

"Everyone kept telling them, and forcing them, that they had to keep fighting over a grudge that had been accumulating for tens of thousands of years. No one ever asked them if they still wanted to fight."

"What for the maintenance of peace and justice on earth, what for the sovereignty of earth!"

"They're all excuses! They're the excuses for the common people to hold the gods hostage."

"The greedy among humans, they wage war in the name of the gods to fulfill their own selfish desires."

"What Poseidon, the god of the sea, wants to rule the earth? What Hades, the god of the underworld, wants to rule the earth?"

"Do they care about a speck of dust in this vast universe?"

"Those who seek to gain control of this land are nothing more than the Hades Saints and Sea Saints who, standing behind them, have seized upon their will and wish to wage war in their name, as well as the millions of greedy humans."

"Have you ever considered that, for tens of thousands of years, from the mythological era to the present, these gods have reincarnated into the human world every two hundred and fifty years, and their sole purpose after reincarnation is to fight for life and death."

"Over tens of thousands of years, they've reincarnated dozens of times and fought dozens of wars. For those who possess endless eternity, repeating such meaningless and boring things, aren't they tired? Aren't they bored?!"

"Maybe they no longer want to fight."

"But every time they reincarnate, after their reincarnated bodies are found, the first thing they are taught is that they will fight when they grow up."

"'No one ever gave them a second option, saying maybe we could find a way to live in peace."

"Maybe we can avoid war."

"As a god, you have fought for so many years and are tired. You can take a break in this life."

"Who told them that?!"

"Who gave them a choice?!"

"These gods seem to stand above all other living beings, but they are just pitiful creatures."

"They are swept up by their followers and the will of millions of people in this world, endlessly repeating, generation after generation, what they may have long since stopped wanting to do."

"Perhaps every time they reincarnate into this world, they just want to be ordinary people, living happily, never thinking about fighting wars, never thinking about ruling the world."

Dongfang Long slammed the table, then pointed at Sasha and said, "Now Athena wants to live a happy life like this (Nord's) now."

"I want to live a happy life with my family."

"Why do you deprive her of such rights?"

"Why don't you respect her opinion?"

"Why do you impose your will on her?"

"Why should such a heavy responsibility as defending the earth and fighting holy war be imposed on a little girl like this?"

"Tell me, why?!"

Sisyphus was speechless for a long time after hearing this. Then he said, "But if Athena were not there, those evil gods would wake up and start a war."

"Then what should humans do?"

Dongfang Long said, "First of all, we can't always rely on God to protect us."

"We cannot pin our hopes of survival on the protection of gods."

"In that case, we are nothing more than parasites."

Chapter 194: Perhaps God No Longer Wants to Fight

"We kept shouting that we wanted to resist the gods who played with our lives and live with dignity."

"But if we always rely on Athena, then isn't that a form of parasitism? Is that living with dignity?"

"So even if we're fighting a holy war, we can't always place this responsibility and hope on Athena."

Sisyphus fell silent after hearing this. Although this conflicted with his thoughts, he felt that what Dongfang Long said made sense.

Dongfang Long said, "Besides, the gods of this generation are really tired of fighting. In fact, maybe none of them want to awaken again in this generation."

"So you don't have to worry. I will seal the souls of the gods."

"Let their reincarnated bodies live this life according to their own wishes."

"As for the holy war, you don't have to worry about it."

"Athena, Hades, Poseidon, their souls have been sealed by me."

"I just want to test whether these gods want to wage holy war on their own?"

"When they were little, I didn't want anyone to interfere with their thinking and tell 910 they had to fight jihad."

"As for whether this holy war can be fought, then when they grow up, they can decide for themselves according to their own wishes."

"If the jihad doesn't happen in the end, what does that mean?"

After hearing this, Sisyphus thought calmly and said, "This means that the gods may really not want to continue the holy war."

Dongfang Long nodded and said, "Yes! This shows that they are tired of fighting for tens of thousands of years and don't want to continue this meaningless holy war."

"In this way, perhaps jihad can be truly ended in this generation."

"It doesn't end with one side defeating the other."

"Instead, the gods reconciled and never waged war again. How the earth would develop was left to humans to decide."

"Isn't this a bad ending?"

"Isn't it worth a try?"

Sisyphus' eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard this.

Yes, from the mythological era to the present, there have been several holy wars fought over and over again.

Each time was extremely tragic, with countless deaths.
