Persephone stepped into God-King.
But she.
Didn't care about displaying such majesty.
To her, she cared more about Alistair's safety.
Alistair shook his head. "It won't affect me. Discovering my uniqueness is meaningless."
"My rank equals 666."
"But."
"Essentially, I'm just a newly ascended god of darkness."
Alistair spread his hands, lounging casually on the sofa.
"Heh heh heh~~~"
Persephone, hearing him, couldn't help but chuckle, rolling her eyes charmingly. "Dust, you! Fine, as long as there's no issue."
"So."
"Don't worry."
"No problems."
Alistair waved casually. Small issue, small issue.
His rank was high, but discovering it? Not easy.
As for the Dimensional Star Chart? Impossible to detect.
In other words.
Alistair was just a minor Underworld god of darkness, newly ascended.
At most.
Remarkably talented.
"Then…"
Pandora bowed slightly. "Your Majesty, Lord Hades, I'll go to Earth to rebuild Hades' City."
Persephone smiled. "Go."
"Yes!"
Pandora turned, leaving joyfully.
"Looks like."
"Pandora's thrilled."
Alistair teased, watching her. "Ker, you and Pandora think it's easier with a strong backer, right?"
"Your Majesty…"
Ker shook her head helplessly, sighing. "Your Majesty, as you said, a strong backer helps. Only gods from the Titan era or the three kings' reign would understand the vast difference between God-King and below."
Alistair suddenly said, "Then, Ker, you must work hard."
"In the future."
"You could step into God-King too."
"What?"
"Me?"
Ker blinked, stunned, feeling like a mythical creature tasked with an impossible mission.
"Indeed."
Alistair nodded with a smile. "Why think you can't?"
"The Dimensional Star Chart."
"Traversing infinite records."
"If so."
"Can't you advance further?"
"Fate?"
"Plural gods?"
"Hmph!"
Alistair's lips curved faintly. "The law of fate isn't weak, and plural gods are meaningless."
"Your Majesty, I'll strive."
Ker nodded seriously, resolute.
"No need to stress."
Alistair raised his hand, and Persephone smoothly handed him a dark cigarette, the process seamless.
Alistair gazed into the distance, amused. "I'm curious what the Sanctuary will think when Hades' City reappears."
"Well."
"Not a big deal."
Alistair mused briefly, then let it go.
…
Earth.
Pandora's figure rose from the ground amid darkness.
"It's been…"
"So long since I've been here."
Pandora quietly surveyed her surroundings, her eyes filled with nostalgia.
Long ago.
She brought despair and hope to Earth, branded a witch, reviled by all.
After that.
Only under Hades' protection in the Underworld could she return to Earth.
But as Hades faltered and the Underworld declined, Pandora could only visit Earth in a human body. Her true self?
Impossible, due to humanity's malice toward her.
Now!
Returning to Earth, she felt that terrifying malice, but with His Majesty and Lord Hades' support, it was nothing.
Sorry!
It was insignificant. The moment it touched Pandora, it was absorbed completely.
Quite embarrassing.
For ordinary gods, even Hades, blocking or handling divine malice was impossible.
But for Alistair?
It was like dessert.
"…"
Pandora raised a hand, and a dark purple trident emerged from the darkness, landing in her delicate grasp.
"Rise!"
Holding the trident, she pointed forward.
The earth surged, a black spiral mountain rising over a kilometer high before stopping. Atop it, a castle materialized from nothing.
In an instant.
The Underworld's aura spread across Earth.
Most crucially.
A burst of divine energy followed—God-King energy—shocking the gods.
What happened?
The thought echoed in their minds.
"Hmph!"
Pandora, having rebuilt Hades' City, turned, gazing loftily toward the Sanctuary. "Athena, it's not over. The Holy War, in truth, is just beginning."
Holding her trident, she returned to the Underworld.
Hades' City stood boldly, leaving gods wary, too cautious to investigate.
Simultaneously.
The moment Hades' City reappeared—precisely, when Pandora set foot on Earth.
In the Sanctuary.
Saori Kido sensed her arrival, but before she could react.
The changes were too vast.
