[ Facing Tenma's ridicule, Pandora glanced at the three of them disdainfully: "Little girls, you can just quit here obediently!"
Radamanthys silently walked up to Tenma and the other two, but… his unparalleled oppressive aura was impossible to ignore!
"Hey… Regu…!" Tenma also noticed that Regulus was a little off at the moment, as the latter's expression suddenly became incredibly ferocious.
Before Tenma could ask about his condition, Radamanthys, who was standing in front of them, suddenly opened his mouth, and a destructive power condensed before him!
In an instant, the rampant power poured out towards everyone without reservation, instantly tearing up the ground. Regulus and Tenma were directly embedded in the wall by this wild force!
"What… just a roar could have such…"
Feeling the pain coming from all over his body, Tenma was somewhat surprised by the power of this attack!
Seeing this scene, Pandora was in a great mood and couldn't help but mock them:
"Hahahahaha, it's nothing more than this, you can't even withstand a Wyvern's breath!"
But in the next second, a golden ray of light shot out from the ruins, revealing a dangerous aura that made even Pandora shudder.
As the dust settled, Sasha stood in the air holding her scepter, with the Athena statue silently standing before her: "I won't let you harm Tenma and Regulus, Pandora!"
Pandora's eyes instantly turned cold, and she thought to herself, "The Goddess statue?!… Could that be the one that can obliterate all evil…!"
Before Pandora could make a move, another dazzling light descended from the sky, as the Goddess of War had already donned her God Cloth!
However, it was not easy for Sasha, whose divine power had been sealed, to wear the God Cloth. Large beads of sweat continuously rolled down her forehead!
The sacred and brilliant God Cloth not only failed to bring power to Athena, but instead felt like a thousand pounds of weight pressed upon her.
Tenma realized that something was wrong and became worried: "Sa…sha?!"
In just a few seconds, Sasha was actually crushed to the ground by her own God Cloth!
Pandora was already laughing so hard that she was shaking like a flower branch:
"Hahaha, this is truly a masterpiece!"
"Now you've lost both your divine power and your Cosmos, you're just an ordinary little girl!! Right?" ]

"She's one of the Twelve Olympian Gods, yet she's being openly mocked. If Hades hadn't sealed her divine power, could Pandora and Radamanthys still be so arrogant?!"
"Is this path so wild? It's the first time I've seen someone crushed by their own Cloth."
Everyone was a little speechless at this point. They thought Athena would unleash her divine might after putting on the God Cloth, but they didn't expect such a scene.
Big sister, if your divine power is sealed, don't be so arrogant! What if Radamanthys focuses his attack on you? Even if the little lion can resist, he probably won't be able to account for the aftermath.
As an ordinary person now, even a single aftershock could probably take your life.
.....
〜A Certain Magical Index World, Academy City〜
"Uh… this~"
Misaki Shokuhou felt embarrassed for Athena watching this scene. Who would have thought there would be such a reversal?
This is probably the most awkward famous scene in the Saint Seiya world. The Goddess of War is actually crushed by her own armor, unable to even stand up.
It's like Sun Wukong in Journey to the West suddenly can't lift his Ruyi Jingu Bang. Absurdity opens the door for absurdity; it's utterly ridiculous.
In the Tokiwadai dormitory, Misaka Mikoto's mouth also twitched slightly, but not at Athena, but at Pandora, feeling speechless.
"Earlier, when she realized it was a God Cloth, her expression was panicked, and in the blink of an eye, she's laughing so hard she's shaking like a flower branch…"
Your mental reversal is too fast, isn't it?!
And… isn't your goal to reclaim Hades' soul? As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Why are you wasting time with Athena here?!
.....
[ Pandora obviously wouldn't miss this great opportunity. Seeing Sasha on the ground, she directly delivered a long-legged kick!
"LADY ATHENA!!"
"Sasha… Even if you can wear the God Cloth, your current body cannot fight!"
Seeing this, the little lion and Tenma cried out in distress and instantly rushed in front of Pandora!
"Pandora! I will never let you act so wantonly!"
The little lion's Plasma Lightning Fist and Pegasus's Meteor Fist merged in mid-air, blasting towards Pandora.
But Radamanthys wouldn't give them this chance. His figure instantly appeared before them, and a chilling roar instantly resounded: "Listen! The Wyvern's Flap!"
"Behold, The Unfurling Of The Wyvern's Wings—!"
Tenma and the little lion's combined attack was instantly reflected back onto themselves!
"Ugh… it all bounced back?!"
The power of this combined attack was indeed strong; it directly knocked both of them down! ]
[ .....]
〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"Hiss—, when will Pandora realize she's wearing a skirt?! She loves kicking so much."
"Tenma and the little lion said: Don't we know how strong our combined technique is?! We just knocked ourselves down."
But… everyone was even more confused as to how the little lion's Plasma Lightning Fist combined with Pegasus Meteor Fist?! The punch speeds don't match at all.
Or did Tenma's punch speed already catch up to a Gold Saint after training on Canon Island with the Gemini Saint for a few days?!
If that's the case, Tenma seems to be a genius as well.
It's just that among a group of incredible Gold Saints, Tenma's brilliance was overshadowed, making him seem somewhat ordinary.
.....
[ Pandora also took this opportunity to lock Sasha's throat, and countless venomous snakes crawled onto her body, tightly binding Athena's body.
Seeing the helpless Tenma and the other, Pandora laughed even more wildly:
"Ahahahahaha, base souls like them can only possess pathetic and short lives!"
Hearing Pandora's contemptuous words about human destiny, a faint light began to condense around Sasha's body!
Seeing this, Pandora's laughter abruptly stopped, and she couldn't help but freeze in place: "Something faintly emerging from Athena, who has lost all her Cosmos…"
Just then, a gentle yet firm voice came from Sasha's mouth: "Precisely because of this, as long as humans have life, they will continue to nurture their Cosmos!"
Although humans have fragile and short lives, as long as there is life… even if her power is sealed now, she will still nurture her Cosmos!
Pandora quickly raised her trident, and Sasha, who had previously been gasping for breath under the pressure of the God Cloth, was now able to directly confront her!
"Compared to gods, humans always bring shock to her heart! Their lives will be passed on infinitely, and their lives are full of freedom and hope."
"You should know this, too! At least… You once lived as an ordinary girl!" ]
[ .....]
〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"So that's it! I understand, I'm going to feel the Cosmos now. If no Cosmos is born, I'll accuse you of deceiving the audience!"
"Hahaha, to put it simply, Sasha means: although it's sealed! It doesn't mean you can't relearn!"
It has to be said that Sasha's mind actually works quite fast. It's just being sealed, so she'll just relearn! After all, the foundation of a deity is there.
Everyone found this scene somewhat peculiar! A Cosmos nurtured in just an instant could actually directly confront Pandora.
This is the confidence of a god!
.....
[ Hearing these words, Pandora felt as if she had been struck hard, and a memory that seemed to have been sealed for a long time began to slowly surface in her mind!
"What… what is this memory…?"
An ancient memory merged into her mind, and at the same time, in the deep darkness, Yoma watched this scene with interest: "It's time to stir things up!"
In Pandora's memory, when she was young, the world in her eyes was colorful!
She was so happy she danced when she learned that Partita was pregnant, and when Tenma was born, Pandora was even more overjoyed!
She surprisingly loved this child and even began to imagine living together with her brother after he was born, believing that the world would then shine brilliantly!
However, on the day Pandora's brother was born, her beautiful wish was completely shattered. Hades' soul was stolen, her mother died, and Partita's family disappeared without a trace!
Pandora pointed the finger of suspicion at Partita, and the Twin Gods even came out to fan the flames, telling Pandora unequivocally!
"Pandora, that faint and suspicious Cosmos is the Cosmos of our sworn enemy, Athena's Saint!"
The culprit was that maid, and her child also had the Cosmos of their sworn enemy, Athena's Saint!
From that moment on, Pandora's world turned ash. She ordered the Specters to immediately pursue them and tear that child to pieces!
Pandora could no longer suppress the anger in her heart and thrust her trident at Tenma: "THAT WOMAN IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL!!"
While dodging, Tenma quickly tried to explain: "No! Pandora, Mom didn't do that…"
A strange vortex appeared out of thin air, and the true mastermind, Yoma, embraced Pandora, but… his hands were a little dishonest: "That's right, it wasn't his Mother, it was I, this father, who did it!!" ]
[ .....]
〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"Wait… where are your hands?! Let go of her, you old pervert!"
"Tsk tsk, combining with the information Yoma gave earlier, everything connects. It can only be said that everything is Yoma's fault."
Pandora was once just an ordinary human girl, longing for a beautiful future.
But because of Yoma's drama, everything shattered! Almost all tragedies were born because of him. It can only be said that being sealed by the Gemini Saint was a cheap punishment for him.
"So Pandora was tricked and now has to work for someone else? What the heck!"
No wonder Pandora gritted her teeth in hatred every time she saw Athena. It turns out that Athena inexplicably bore the blame without realizing it.
If Yoma hadn't interfered, judging by Pandora's attitude towards Tenma when he was just born, they might have even been considered siblings now…
