Section II
"Master Aeoria, did you know? Before I became a Underworld Warrior, I was just a small fry in the Sanctuary.”
Upon hearing Laquis 'words, a layer of dust appeared in Aioria's eyes.
"I recognize you."
"Thank you, Lord Aeoria. You still remember me. That's great." Laquis 'face, which was covered in blood, revealed a brilliant smile.
" I remember when I joined the Sanctuary with hope and pride. I thought that I could become a real Saint Seiya with my own strength. After becoming a Saint Seiya, he could do earth-shattering things and gain everyone's praise. But fate is cruel." Laquis smiled bitterly and continued.
"Before you become a Saint Seiya, you need to constantly train. You need a lot of blood and tears to awaken the small universe in your heart. There were countless times when he lay on the bed on his last breath, not even having the strength to speak. Countless of them had fallen to the ground covered in wounds, feeling that living was unnecessary. However, my thirst for glory allowed me to survive.”
" I know," Eoria said softly." I've tasted such days."”
"But Lord Aeoria, you still succeeded, while I failed. Actually, I only participated in the battle for the Pegasus Bronze Holy Garment. But in the first round, I was defeated by Hoshi.”Laquis's eyes were filled with memories.
"Thinking about it carefully, it was fortunate that my opponent was Hoshi. If I were to fight against Casio, I would have taken the first blow and lost my head. In front of a real Saint Seiya, I was so weak. Therefore, I could only become an ordinary soldier.”
"Ioria!" Shura used his small universe to transmit his voice.""Don't waste time with him.”
"No, Shura!" Eoria replied," I respect this battle, and I respect him!”
Shura was silent as he sized up the Underworld Fighter in front of him.
He had brown hair and a straight face. He was an ordinary Greek. The dark clothes on his body had long been torn apart, but his eyes were still shining.
People from the Underworld shouldn't have such eyes. He looked like…like the Bronze Saint of the Twelve Zodiacs!
"A minor soldier is the lowest level of a Saint. What could he do? Other than dealing with some ordinary people who accidentally entered the Sanctuary, we can't defeat the Sea General, nor are we a match for the Dark Warriors. Even the rebellious Dark Saints can kill us in large numbers. The Sacred Zone often orders us to set up barriers, but these so-called barriers cannot stop the enemy, much less reduce our casualties.”Laquis sounded a little sad. Perhaps he found it inappropriate. He shook his head and regained his strong expression.
"You've gone too far. The life of a small soldier was actually a valuable training. Even though I couldn't take it a few times, you helped me, Master Eoria. Although I am now a Underworld Warrior and you are my enemy, you will always be my Lord Eoria!”
"It's nothing. I used to be a random soldier.”
"Yes, back then, Lord Aeoria was dressed like a random soldier. Almost no one knew that you were the Gold Saint, who was at the highest position. The funny thing was that there were still many people who didn't know and wanted to bully you.”
Aioria and Laquis looked at each other and laughed together.
Laquis continued," Master Aeoria told me that people have their value and shine, no matter how low their status is. I kept this in mind and worked hard. Finally, on that day, the Devil Star Drake was resurrected in my body.”
"Flood Dragon?" Ioria suddenly felt sorry for Laquis. The so-called alternative dragons were huge in size, but they did not have legs or wings. They spat out poisonous gas, but they were very afraid of fire. They were the weakest race in the dragon race. Laquis had worked so hard to become a Underworld Fighter, but he was still in such a lowly position…
"I'm very happy after becoming a Underworld Fighter. It doesn't matter who Hades is. I don't care what he wants to do. I just want to prove myself. I just want to let my bleak life shine once. The Sky Health Planet Flood Dragon might not be a powerful demon star, but it's enough for me to have the qualifications to be a warrior. Lord Aeoria, I'm sorry to have wasted so much of your time. Now, let's make our move." Laquis suddenly took off the rest of his clothes.
"Oh?" Aoria and Shura were both surprised.
"Lord Aeoria, Lord Shura, please don't misunderstand. I'm not giving up on the battle. It's just that I have too many misgivings and too many things that I can't let go of. Now that I've taken off my dark clothes, I just want to use my body to fight without any restraints!”
"Very good!" Without any hesitation, Aeoria exploded the Golden Holy Garment on its body.
"Lord Aeoria, you…"
"Since you want to fight without holding back, then I don't want to take advantage of you!”
“……”
Thank you, Lord Aeoria!
Laquis bowed to Ioria with tears in his eyes. The small universe in his body began to expand infinitely.
Looking at them, Shura was suddenly moved.
Very good. This was a man's battle. Both of them were warriors worthy of respect.
"Dragon Meteor Fist!"
"Lightning Speed Fist!"
The brilliant light fell on both sides, and blood flowed out. However, neither of them fell, nor did they dodge. Instead, they threw punches at each other! They kept fighting and panting. Their bodies were covered with scars and fist marks, like the badges of men! Their bodies were covered in blood, but they were still standing, like two rising mountains.
Shura clenched his fists tightly as he watched the intense battle.
What a terrifying Laquis. His fighting spirit had already surpassed his physical body! If this continued, even if Aeoria won, they would definitely be heavily injured. I'll make my move. No, I can't interfere in this man's battle! However, Aeoria would be injured. Besides, he didn't say that I couldn't make a move. If I make a move now, he won't have an excuse to blame me, right? Didn't those underworld warriors always attack us together? Was he really going to make a move?
The light pillars were densely packed and hit every part of their bodies, erupting with terrifying sounds. However, neither Ioria nor Laquis made a sound!
---No way! I must respect this battle! Even if Aeoria would be severely injured!
Shura let out a long sigh. He took out his reed flute and began to play passionately. This was not a demonic tune that could kill, but a hymn and lament for the warriors!
"Laquis!"
"Lord Aeoria!"
"Let's decide the victor."
"Good!"
The two blazing lights collided with a thunderous sound. Then, the earth regained its peace…
