Bab 124: Chapter 124: Hades: Coeus, You've Forgotten Your Sealed Memories
"Black Source of Light!"
"Flashing Thrust!"
"Black Thunder Pierce!"
Coeus combined his guardian star, True Divinity, Ultimate Power, and technique into one, unleashing the most perfect divine power, elevating himself to a level comparable to a God-King in a short time.
However, such an onslaught, such a barrage of attacks, seemed insignificant in Hades's eyes. From start to finish, Hades showed no emotional fluctuation.
Holding a pitch-black divine sword with one hand, he effortlessly blocked all of Coeus's attacks. It felt almost like a joke, giving an incredibly strange impression.
But Coeus couldn't worry about that. As time went on, he could feel the vast difference in pure strength between them. It was a gap that words could hardly describe, the gap of true equality beneath the God-King level.
"Huff... Huff..." Coeus was even panting, an absurd situation for someone of his level. That was the truly strange part, making it even more bewildering.
Yet, the fact was undeniable. Coeus was not only panting but also consuming a tremendous amount of divine power. Despite having his guardian star to replenish his strength, the relentless barrage still drained him immensely.
Even so, Coeus remained sharp and vigilant, understanding the importance of not letting his guard down.
Otherwise, it would mean a fatal outcome.
"What is he waiting for?" Coeus pondered after a round of attacks. "What is Hades waiting for? Why is he acting this way? Why?"
Coeus couldn't understand what Hades was doing. It was too strange, even eerie. Hades could easily kill him with his power.
Moreover, Hades had stepped into the God-King level, and with the Dark Emblem, he could temporarily wield power comparable to an Ancient God. Why could the three new-generation God-Kings—Hades, Poseidon, and Zeus—challenge the Titan God-King Cronus after reaching the God-King level?
The Dark Emblem!
The Light Emblem!
These were artifacts prepared by the world to let the three God-Kings temporarily step into the realm of Ancient Gods. With these artifacts, the three God-Kings could simultaneously reach the level of Ancient Gods. Even if they couldn't defeat Cronus one-on-one, what about three against one?
Clearly, the logic was understood. If you couldn't win alone, you could gang up. It was the best strategy. As for Poseidon's artifact, no one knew, not even Hades. It wasn't mentioned in the original story, but it existed for sure.
Because of this, Coeus found the situation strange. What had happened? The current circumstances were too bizarre, even eerie!
If Hades wanted to kill him, it would be simple. There was no need to waste so much time. As for erasing him completely? That wasn't realistic. His source crystal, created by Gaia, the Earth Goddess, and Creator God, was tied to his mother.
As long as his mother lived, his source crystal couldn't be destroyed. So, what was Hades trying to do?
As a seer, Coeus's wisdom had always been his strength, even during the Sky God War.
Indeed, before the Titanomachy, Cronus waged a war against his father, Uranus, called the Sky God War. That war was equally brutal and difficult.
Hyperion showcased his strength.
Coeus showcased his wisdom.
After that, the two were considered Cronus's right-hand men. However, Coeus couldn't understand what Hades wanted to do. Clearly...
"Coeus," Hades said quietly, seeming to see Coeus's confusion. "You have completely forgotten your sealed memories."
"It seems..."
"Waiting for you to recover your memories isn't feasible. We have to take a chance."
Hades looked at Coeus with a calm but helpless expression, which confused Coeus even more. Memories? What memories? What was hidden in his mind?
Coeus couldn't remember. He couldn't recall what was hidden in his memories. Hades stopped talking. Given the situation, Coeus still couldn't remember what was sealed.
Then.
Continuing to wait was pointless. So, it had to end here. Clearly, getting the desired power wasn't easy.
Hades felt helpless. He had been toying with Coeus, hoping to push him to his limit, forcing him to release the special power sealed in his memory.
But now?
Clearly!
Coeus had forgotten everything. Continuing like this was meaningless. Hades could only use the Star Demon's seal and devouring laws to see if he could get the power he wanted.
"Dark Thrust!"
Coeus didn't know what Hades meant, but he saw Hades was serious. He didn't hesitate, unleashing his strongest move.
He gathered his Ultimate Power in his arm, releasing black lightning. The countless lightning laws shattered the guardian stars, merging them into one. At this moment.
Coeus truly combined everything he mastered into one, launching a devastating strike.
However...
