章 190: Chapter 190: Fancy Tricks Are Useless, Let's Just Fight Head-On!
Hestia felt helpless. The little one was overly confident. She hadn't considered properly that if the duties couldn't be controlled, would those duties truly not fall upon her brother?
"Well!"
"Forget it!"
Hestia shook her head as she watched the extracted duties and soul gradually enter the underworld. She muttered, "This child will appear again in the future, so it's best not to complain too much. Otherwise, it doesn't feel right."
"Time to go back to reading manga."
"But."
"I must say, human food is really delicious!"
"In that small world, chefs are highly regarded, and the dishes they create are truly outstanding."
"Mm!"
"I'm going to grab a couple back."
Hestia walked away happily.
Life in the underworld allowed Hestia to completely let loose. The role of eldest sister? What was that? It had nothing to do with her, and she didn't want any trouble!
She was just herself. She wasn't anyone's eldest sister.
For Hestia, a life of eating, drinking, playing, and doing nothing was too comfortable, making her happy every day.
While Hestia was happily slacking off, on the other side, Hades and Hypnos stopped once again. When fancy tricks were of no use, it was time for a direct confrontation.
After all!
Cronus would never allow his three sons to easily reach the top of the mountain. This was the last possible delay.
Titan Warriors stood before them, exuding immense divine power, clad in bronze-like armor, and radiating powerful divine laws. Each one was formidable.
Throughout endless years, how many Titan Warriors had Cronus accumulated? And how many powerful Titan Warriors were there? It's hard to say!
But!
What is certain is that aside from the twelve main Titans and the Titans scattered across the mythological world, the Titan Warriors guarding Mount Othrys were also an extremely powerful force.
These Titan Warriors were meticulously selected by Hyperion and trained through rigorous trials, eventually coming here. After countless years of arduous cultivation, they gained Cronus's recognition and were bestowed Titan Armor, becoming Titan Warriors.
"Lord Hades!"
"You!"
"Your journey ends here!"
Accompanied by these calm words, the Titan Warriors blocked Hades's path. Their eyes shone with fervent loyalty, almost fanatical.
Clearly!
These Titan Warriors would not retreat an inch.
Similarly.
In addition to the Titan Warriors, there were numerous divine beasts, monsters, demonic beasts, and yokai! All gathered here. Furthermore, fortresses rose up, resembling earthly temples, blocking Hades's path.
Obviously!
The Titan Warriors knew that direct confrontation and trying to kill Hades head-on was unrealistic. Their goal was to delay, to completely hold off Hades as long as possible.
For them, that was enough.
Hades quietly observed everything. Additionally, the essence of Underworld, representing the duties of the underworld, still enveloped everything around them, despite the death of the Titan Warrior Underworld.
Furthermore!
One by one, death beasts containing the essence of death were born. The laws of Underworld permeated numerous temples, standing tall, forming the most solid fortresses.
"..."
Hypnos stood still, gazing at the massive fortress ahead, lost in thought.
How to put it!
It was truly grand! The whole setup seemed elaborate, as if facing an entire army. Yet, besides Hades, there were only two people: Hades and Hypnos.
"Lord Hades?" Hypnos's voice carried a hint of hesitation. He wasn't sure of his lord's intentions.
Hades said indifferently, "Take care of it, clean up everything."
"Yes!"
Hypnos immediately understood. His lord didn't intend to act personally, leaving it to him.
In fact!
In the eyes of the Titan Warriors, such a setup, even for a god-king, was an insurmountable barrier, akin to an earthly temple that could block all attacks.
But in reality? To Hades, it was nothing! It was not even worth mentioning. If he wanted to break it, there were countless ways to completely destroy it.
However!
Hades calculated the situation and decided to let Hypnos handle it.
As for the reason?
To put it bluntly!
Both sides were waiting for the predetermined time to arrive. Hades, Poseidon, Zeus, the three god-kings were waiting, and so was Cronus, the Titan God-King.
According to the time estimate, that predetermined moment was approaching, soon to arrive, marking the beginning or the end of everything.
"Father." Hades gazed into the distance, through the endless illusion, seemingly seeing the Titan God-King sitting on his throne, and murmured, "You've considered everything. All of this, or rather, everything, is within your expectations."
"So..."
"Is it really that simple?"
"You're waiting, and so are we. When it comes to this point, what will the final result be? Who knows."
Hypnos walked forward step by step, while Hades felt a pair of eyes quietly watching him. His divine power was being endlessly weakened, his laws continuously suppressed, his divine artifacts repeatedly reduced to their limits.
However!
Despite this, he continued to seek the opportunity to break everything. And that moment seemed to be right in front of him. Once past that point, it would all be over.
