The two were now very close, and Genichi Hanyu could even clearly see her long, thick silver eyelashes and feel the unique aura emanating from her, a mixture of virginal fragrance and the chill of the underworld.
"Human desires are always so foolish and intense, ultimately leading to self-destruction."
Athena's voice deepened, carrying a strange, almost seductive rhythm.
"Since you desire it so much, if you are not afraid of the backlash from this collection of mine, and are not afraid of falling into the eternal underworld..."
She slightly tilted her exquisite, flawless face up, and in her golden eyes seemed to be a vortex of death slowly swirling.
"Then, I will give you this opportunity."
Her voice was as soft as a whisper, yet as heavy as a final judgment.
"But, Godslayer, are you prepared to die?"
This is not a compromise, much less a surrender!
This is a trap!
It was a deadly trap meticulously woven by Athena, aimed at the blasphemous Genichi Hanyu!
She intends to use herself as bait to deliver a fatal blow!
Upon hearing Athena's death omen, which was both provocative and strangely promising, Genichi Hanyu was not alarmed. Instead, he chuckled softly, his laughter filled with confidence and amusement: "Preparing for death? I am always ready to meet challenges, whether from gods or from death itself. I just hope that Athena will not disappoint me with your opportunity."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Athena moved!
There was no earth-shattering burst of divine power, nor the summoning of ancient mythical beasts.
Her movements were as fast as a ghost, yet they carried a strange elegance and solemnity.
Her slender hands, like the bright moonlight, gently yet with an irresistible force, cupped Genichi Hanyu's cheeks.
Her palms were icy cold, a temperature unlike that of a living person, more like ice drawn directly from the depths of the underworld.
The next moment, under Genichi Hanyu's slightly surprised but not resisting gaze, Athena tiptoed and pressed her lips, which were a pale cherry blossom color but extremely cold, onto Genichi Hanyu's lips!
A kiss from the goddess of death!
However, this was by no means a sensual gift, but rather the most deadly trap!
The instant their lips met, Genichi Hanyu clearly felt a vast, cold, and deathly power, like the floodwaters of the Styx bursting its banks, rushing wildly into his body through their joined lips!
That is the purest power of the authority of death!
Athena attempted to use this most direct, intimate, and dangerous method to detach Genichi Hanyu's soul directly from his body and drag him into the eternal, cold underworld!
This is not a clash of arms, but an erosion and stripping away of the rules!
Athena chose this extremely clever method. She was betting that Genichi Hanyu would relax his closeness to her for a moment, and that although the body of the god-slayer was strong, his soul would still be extremely fragile when faced with the most fundamental rules of death!
Through the kiss, she poured her divine power and the rules of death into him without reservation, attempting to dismantle him from within and avoid a direct confrontation with his battle-hardened god-slayer body and his vast powers.
The chilling power of death spread rapidly along the veins and blood vessels like countless venomous snakes, freezing and annihilating all life wherever it passed.
A faint, bluish-gray tinge, belonging to the dead, began to appear on Genichi Hanyu's skin. His heartbeat seemed to slow down, his body temperature was dropping rapidly, and his consciousness seemed to be dragged into an endless darkness and silence.
Athena's golden eyes were inches away, but there was no emotion in them, only absolute coldness and indifference to execute death.
She is doing everything in her power to send this arrogant god-slayer to eternal slumber!
Genichi Hanyu felt as if his consciousness was standing on the edge of a cliff, with a bottomless abyss below, and the cold aura of the underworld was pulling at his soul.
However, at this critical moment, in that instant when he seemed to be completely swallowed by death, there was no fear in the depths of his eyes, but instead a glimmer of extreme excitement and madness!
A forced melon will bear fruit!
And this deadly kiss of death was an unprecedentedly stimulating experience!
300 Athena's complete corruption
Just as Genichi Hanyu's soul seemed to be entangled by the cold tentacles of the underworld, and he had one foot on the edge of that eternally silent realm, a sudden change occurred!
A power, originating from the same source as the death power of Athena that was raging wildly within him, but even more ancient, purer, and more supreme, suddenly awakened from the deepest part of his soul!
That was in the world of Harry Potter, where he completely merged with the Godhood of Death!
This divine essence does not represent the rules of death in a specific mythological system, but rather the primordial power that is closer to the concept of death.
It is usually silent and unassuming, integrated into the essence of Genichi Hanyu, and is rarely used.
But at this moment, stimulated and invaded by the divine power of the same attribute from the outside world, it was like an enraged monarch, naturally revealing its terrifying power!
"Om-!"
An invisible yet soul-stirring hum reverberated within Genichi Hanyu's body.
The death force that Athena had originally injected, which had attempted to annihilate his life and drag away his soul, instantly became docile and even filled with fear in the face of true death!
The situation is reversed instantly!
It was no longer Athena pouring death into him, but rather the death god within Yuzuru Hanyu's body that generated an irresistible and terrifying suction force!
It was like a bottomless black hole, greedily and domineeringly drawing the power of death from Athena's body!
"Well!"
Athena's pupils suddenly contracted to their maximum size, and for the first time, an incredulous look of horror appeared in them!
She could clearly feel that the core power within her body, originating from her status as the Queen of the Underworld, was draining away at an unprecedented rate, surging wildly towards Genichi Hanyu through their still tightly pressed lips!
That was not just a depletion of divine power, but also a stripping away of the very essence of authority!
She wanted to break free, to push Genichi Hanyu away, and to stop this terrible process!
But at this moment, the roles of hunter and prey have been completely reversed!
Genichi Hanyu's eyes, which had originally held a playful tone, had now become deep and unfathomable, as if they contained the nothingness of the end of the universe.
He had previously let Athena do as she pleased, even harboring a sliver of expectation, but now his true intentions have finally been revealed!
His hand, which might have been casually resting on her head, now acted like the strongest iron shackles, pressing firmly against the back of Athena's head, preventing her from escaping even an inch!
"Ugh, let go~".
Athena let out a muffled, indistinct, terrified sob, her small body trembling violently as she tried to struggle.
But it was all in vain. Under the absolute suppression of the Death Godhead, this goddess who controlled death couldn't even control her own power!
She could only watch helplessly as the death power she had accumulated over countless years, along with the source of the Queen of the Underworld's authority, was uncontrollably absorbed, devoured, and fused by Genichi Hanyu, like a flood that had been released from its dam!
Through this most intimate contact, the most brutal plunder was carried out!
This ancient goddess, in Genichi Hanyu's hands, is like a beautiful butterfly nailed to an experimental table, with no possibility of resistance, only helplessly feeling her most essential power being drained and stripped away little by little.
Her long silver hair seemed to have lost its luster, and her petite body became even colder, as if she were truly about to turn into a lifeless sculpture.
Absolutely terrible!
How ironic!
She originally intended to use the power of death to ambush Genichi Hanyu, but she never expected that a higher being with absolute control over death was sleeping inside him!
This is practically walking into a trap, like being delivered right to someone's door!
Finally, when the last trace of Athena's death essence was completely drained away, her body went limp, the light in her eyes dimmed completely, and she seemed to become an empty shell, leaning helplessly into Genichi Hanyu's arms.
She not only lost the foundation of her manifestation as the disobedient Athena, but even the most core power, representing the Hades aspect of her Trinity, was completely plundered by Genichi Hanyu!
Genichi Hanyu slowly released his grip, licking his lips as if savoring some delicious treat.
He felt the surging, now perfectly complete, power of death within his body, and the newly acquired absolute control over the underworld, a look of satisfaction appearing on his face.
He looked down at the silver-haired loli in his arms, who seemed to have lost all life and had empty eyes, and chuckled softly: "What a generous gift, Athena."
At this moment, Athena, strictly speaking, is no longer the disobedient goddess closely associated with mythology and bringing disaster.
Her most important core was stripped away, and her form of existence underwent a fundamental change.
Genichi Hanyu gently placed her on the sofa, then took a step back and snapped his fingers.
"bring it on."
As his calm voice faded, something strange happened.
The empty shell of a body that had been lying on the sofa with vacant eyes slowly dissipated like smoke.
In the shadows beside Genichi Hanyu, a new figure gradually coalesced and emerged.
She still had that silver hair, a delicate, doll-like face, and a petite, adorable body.
She slowly raised her head, revealing her eyes.
However, although those eyes were still beautiful, they no longer held the indifference that once contained ancient wisdom and divinity.
Deep within his eyes, the reflection was no longer of the mountains of Olympus or the darkness of the underworld, but of Genichi Hanyu!
His eyes held absolute respect and obedience, as well as an indescribable, instinctive reverence and connection to Zhao Haohao.
She still exudes divine energy, but this divinity has changed, becoming an extension of Genichi Hanyu's power.
She is no longer a disobedient god opposed to human sorcerers, but rather a divine servant centered around Genichi Hanyu.
"Owner."
The newly born Athena—or rather, a familiar that possesses Athena's appearance and some of her essence, but whose core has been completely replaced—bowed slightly and bowed to Genichi Hanyu in a clear but emotionless voice.
Her very existence was to serve the king before her who had both taken away her life and given her a new one.
Genichi Hanyu looked at the completely transformed Athena before him, a slight smile curving his lips.
The forced melon not only tasted good, but the vine was also transplanted to its own yard.
Now they've recouped their principal and interest.
301 The Sun of India
Erica, holding a freshly brewed cup of black tea, gently pushed open the study door.
The morning sunlight streamed through the huge French windows, casting bright dappled patterns on the carpet, while the air was filled with the delicate aroma of tea and the fragrance of old books.
However, this tranquil atmosphere was completely shattered the moment she looked up.
Her gaze immediately fell on Genichi Hanyu, who was sitting behind the large desk, and then, almost instinctively, she was drawn to the figure standing quietly behind him.
It was a woman with long, flowing silver hair like moonlight, skin so white it was almost translucent, and wearing an inappropriate, classically styled white dress.
She stood there quietly, like an exquisitely crafted doll, yet emanating an inhuman, heart-stirring divine aura.
Erica's pupils suddenly contracted, her azure eyes instantly filled with immense shock.
She will never admit her mistake!
"Athena?!"
The tray in her hands wobbled slightly, and the porcelain cups clinked together, producing a clear, crisp sound, revealing the extreme turmoil in her heart.
She stared in disbelief at the disobedient god who should have been the king's enemy, now standing silently behind King 283 like the most loyal guard. His eyes were lowered, devoid of the legendary arrogance and coldness, only a kind of silence and obedience that felt unfamiliar to her.
How can this be?
What exactly happened last night?
How did the king manage to do that?
How did an ancient goddess transform into this?
Erica's gaze instinctively turned to Genichi Hanyu, seeking an explanation.
Genichi Hanyu, having witnessed Erica's shock, merely glanced at her indifferently without offering any explanation.
He picked up the black tea that Erica had just put down, gently blew on it, and the rising steam blurred the subtle curve of his lips.
Some things don't need to be explained too clearly to subordinates.
Maintaining a certain degree of mystery and authority is a way to manage subordinates.
Moreover, the fact that he left Athena behind, and in this form, has its own profound meaning.
A former disobedient god, now completely under his control, has many things he can do—whether as a hidden trump card, a powerful fighting force, or a decoy to mislead other gods or god-slayers in the future, he is extremely valuable.
With her status and aura as an unorthodox god, she is perfectly suited to carry out many special missions.
Erica was an incredibly intelligent girl; she immediately read the unspoken message in Genichi Hanyu's nonchalant attitude: there was no need to ask any further questions.
She quickly concealed the shock on her face, suppressing all her doubts and curiosity deep inside.
As a genius of the Copper Black Cross, and as a knight who pledged absolute loyalty to Genichi Hanyu, she knew exactly where the boundaries lay.
