TL: Tsubak

ED: SlowAsLightning

Ares breathed roughly

Tears flowed down endlessly from his handsome face that could be picked at the top in all of Olympus

Enyalius had died

Not only him but all of the twenty children of his that had followed him also died

The Drakon Ismenios was alive but he had betrayed him

Ares looked at the world with red bloodshot eyes He stood up slowly and walked through the military camp

The carand The warriors of Sparta sensed the grief of the God of war so they didn’t rief with clumsy words

The warriors of Sparta fell silent and that was the same for the believers of Athena that had fallen in fear and despair Heavy silence pressed down on the entire camp

Ares walked forward and hts to his ree of Gods

The children laid by Aphrodite listened to Ares’ words

The daughters of the queen aht If it was Apollo, whose specialty was the divinewords with only one maiden but that was impossible for the God of war Ares

Enyalius and the brothers that followed him died

The Drakon Is Chase him It wasn’t the time to compete between factions

The story ended He could feel that the re seventy or so children of his had started toIt was towards a special prison he made deep in the cauard kneeled down and bowed towards their guardian God Ares didn’t vent out his anger in those loyal warriors He ordered the curtain that was made with hundreds of leathers of beasts

He took one step and then the ated The God of war exploded the grief he had suppressed the cross the cah and violent divine power filled the place That intent was really like fire

There were two big pillars inside the curtain

And there were chains stuck in each of theo by Hephaestus and himself to offend Aphrodite

It was an object that made you curse when you saw it but Ares well knew of its usefulness You would be able to use it on s if it was a chain that not even the God of war could break easily The scene in front of hi down in between the pillars She looked like she would collapse at any moment but her arms were tied down by the chains so she couldn’t lie down or sit

Ares’ rage woke her up No, she hadn’t fallen asleep in the first place The divine power that was tied in the chains were mostly sealed but it wasn’t that her authority had disappeared corain lowered her head and endured the pain Her beautiful and abundant golden hair that reserains flowed down like a waterfall and covered her face

Ares approached her and every time he took a step Demeter made a resolution She didn’t want to screarabbed the head of the Goddess of grain and raised it up He then stabbed a dagger in the chest of the Goddess

Deer and De back flowed from her mouth The tears she couldn’t endure wet her cheeks

Ares let go of her head and lowered his posture He brought his face close to Dereen eyes looked at Ares Ares faced her with his red eyes and then er in her stoain and inserted divine power in it

"Drakon Ismenios betrayed htly open lips

But she didn’t only struggle at the pain She sood……&8221;

Ares sain and made her screa role in the betrayal of Drakon Ismenios

But it wasn’t a decisive role It was because there was surprise in the pure green eyes of Demeter which shecouldn’t hide

There was a probability the villain had a special ability

‘But it’s impossible to do more than that He can’t turn the hearts of everyone alone’

Having killed everyone except for Drakon Ismenios was proof of that

The only ones that had relationships with Ares a the 12 Olympians and had children were Aphrodite and Demeter

Aphrodite wasn’t a proble to destroy the world like him but Demeter only had one child and that was Drakon Is that he wanted and then let out a long sigh and focused on his next task That was to release all of his indignation

Screaround let cried along her

Ares breathed roughly and looked down at Derabbed her hair that had become a mess with blood, tears and sweat and raised her head

There was still light in Dereen eyes She didn’t become twisted even after the countless pains he inflicted her

Ares didn’t becoed at that truth Rather, he felt satisfaction that Deht of aht

Ares changed

It wasn’t about having turned into soh and savage being even since he was someone that wanted to et what he wanted

But he wasn’t a savagesoed as he switched sides The love, violence and rough temperament beca about Ares

Arteed She now had a ant temperament than before

"Persephone&8221;

Ares said and Deerness and fear she couldn’t hide appeared in her face, Ares laughed out loud

"I will violate her in front of you No What about torturing her? Will that beher in front of you?&8221;

Those were really vulgar words but Demeter could only fall at his taunt

"Hades won’t allow that&8221;

Ares smiled when she spoke with the little voice she had He closed up his face as if digging in the fear inside her green eyes and said

"Poseidon has changed sides&8221;

Demeter flinched It was the reaction Ares wanted

"Hades wasn’t in the ht, there’s a higher possibility he has re to maintain the world&8221;

That’s why it was fine If Hades had turned, he would never hand away Persephone to his hands

It was muchwanting toof course Ares didn’t want to ader than hith with Hades In addition, Hades already had the titans of Tartarus as his ene of Gods and the father of Ares Zeus had started to change

In the first place the reason the titans, that were born as beings wanting to destroy the world, were rising but couldn’t act in concert was because of the owner of the underworld Hades

He was stopping the titans of Tartarus

The reason Hades didn’t help Athena or Apollo or try to rescue Demeter was because of the same reason

Hades was stuck in the underworld He didn’t have the strength to round

It would be the end if they subdued above ground and attacked the inside and outside along were the titans of Tartarus Even Hades wouldn’t be able to endure it

But it was at that ht of one fact

The place Athena could escape to Where she could rely on

There were three such cases

The first was to escape to the ends of the world and hide, the other one was to try to escape to Asgard and the last one was to head to the underworld where Hades was at

The probabilities of the first option were low It was obvious Athena would find a way to resist until the end Escaping and hiding without any hopes about the future was only possible for Apollo

There was no need to intervene for the second option The ar path to seal it down There was also the ar

Then, the third option

All the pieces fell into place The place Athena was heading to was certainly the entrance to the underworld

The smile in Ares’ face became deeper He patted De like a weak beast that had lost her composure the moment Persephone’s nae of the Gods once again and sent a faction i to Hades We have to take over the entrance to the underworld first

They also didn’t forget about the infor Athena

"Break down the camp We will depart as soon as the preparations are done&8221;

The warriors of Sparta started to move busily after they received his order Ares sent a new order to his children

Drive the prey

Don’t run too hurriedly andin front of it

A dense sroup concentrated on leaving the place after they defeated Enyalius and the other children of Ares

They had fought with three huge dragons breathing out breaths so they could attract attention easily even froroup covered theested and then ot out of the forest But they didn’t stop at that and hid theh cliffs

It hen the night was deep The group made a shelter inside the cliffs and only then could they make introductions with their new comrade

"I a able to serveyou is my happiness so I won’t differentiate fro however you want&8221;

Drakon Isolden hair and said with a passionate voice His green eyes that resembled the eyes of his mother shone like stars

‘Why is he like that? His eyes are scary’

Cuchulainn treoosebumps and said

Tae Ho also was surprised at the unexpected reaction of Drakon Ismenios

‘Uh…could it be the result of ‘the one that conquers dragons’ having been strengthened?’

There was a high probability it was the influence of the saga looking that it said ‘conquers’ Tae Ho’s saga had beco

Tae Ho placed his hands on Rolo’s shoulders, who had a displeased expression, as a test

[Saga: The one that conquers dragons]

But there were no changes Rolo just looked at hies?&8221;

Even if it wasn’t happiness for obeying hiood if he still showed respect for hisvoice was heard from an unexpected place at Tae Ho’s rebuke

"Master, you like that? Should I react like that?&8221;

"Tae Ho master likes that?&8221;

Aden asked purely while tilting her head

"No, I will pass Let’s stay like ere I like it as it is now&8221;

"H ti blinked as she didn’t understand well

In the other hand, Bracky explained Tae Ho’s saga to the ones that didn’t know about it

Actually even Bracky didn’t know a enabled hions It’s a really impressive ability&8221;

Patroclus adons around Tae Ho but it seereatly satisfied It seeroup showed them today

"I already knew that the warriors of Valhalla were strong but I could have never thought that even your allies are strong I was really struck with ad roup that just seemed to have been three warriors and three Valkyries increased a few tireatly satisfied that Tae Ho was ination She hadn’t even been able to see his battle against Deimos properly as her injuries were really serious

"Thank you&8221;

Tae Ho replied to Athena’s compliment and then added the information he acquired in the process he conquered Is is true De to maintain the world…&8221;

As Athena spoke with a voice of relief and regret, Drakon Isht in the ca it before rateful for having regained e towards Ares but it ended up becoht&8221;

Tae Ho answered suitably and turned his head trying to avoid his gaze It was quite a different feeling fro’s eyes shone

‘Well, that’s obvious How could they be the saht like usual

In the other hand, Apollo appeared once again through Sybilla and said while opening his eyes sharply

[So there are already two Gods aretful but it’s impossible to rescue the with Hades]

It was like he had said It was impossible to rescue Demeter from the camp of Ares with their current force

Drakon Ismenios also knew that fact so he didn’t speak back but even so he couldn’t hide his regret completely

The ats and spoke brightly

"Um, Drakon Ismenios?&8221;

"You can just call me Drakon oh beautiful and exalted one&8221;

Drakon Isood mood because of the direct co while and tried to speak while trying to lower her lips that kept curling up

"Hether with us from now on so can you tell us what you can do? It’s a bit stiff but don’t feel burdened and tell us&8221;

"Well, grasping the fighting prowess of an ally is an ireed and the others reacted as it was also necessary

"Aside fro…ah, I have a special talent&8221;

Drakon opened his mouth widely and then pointed at his white teeth

"If I pull a tooth and sow it in the ground, powerful warriors called Spartoi are born My teeth will grow again after some time so you don’t have to worry&8221;

"It’s one warrior for one tooth?&8221;

Drakon nodded at Bracky’s question

"That’s right&8221;

"Hm, this ability seems like it will be really useful e have a base&8221;

Ingrid also agreed at Gandur’s words It seeo, it feels like we are beco arons and more than ten Valkyries Tae Ho could summon

If the Spartoi were added on top to it, it really wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that they were ahe had postponed and looked at Athena

"U Idun’s warrior?&8221;

Athena asked back with a nice face Tae Ho took a breath and then faced her eyes

"The reward you toldnow?&8221;

"I also want to give you a reward but unfortunately I don’t have anything I can give you&8221;

Athena’s face paled It wasn’t because she was disappointed at Tae Ho because he asked for a reward but because she felt really sorry at her situation that she couldn’t do anything

Tae Ho shook his head for her

"I don’t want an object&8221;

"Then what do you want?&8221;

Athena blinked and asked

"Is Tae Ho’s black evil hands finally extending to Olympus……&8221;

"Gandur, Idun’s commander-nim isn’t a devil Be careful with your words&8221;
