"As expected of the strongest Gold Saint, the most versatile existence in the Sanctuary, truly dazzling!"
"Aspros is a top student. To become the Pope, he studied all the knowledge of the Pope, and even learned the forbidden knowledge of the Sanctuary due to Yoma's Dark Seed!"
Everyone was wondering if Yoma had dug his own grave, but everything he did, Aspros calling him a demon was not an exaggeration.
"Gemini is incredibly strong!! With the cost of only one hand, he dealt with the troublesome Yoma!"
Although Yoma was a pseudo-god, he was still a god after all! All of his abilities were god-level!
Which Gold Saint could withstand his skills? Besides Aspros, none would be his opponent.
It's a pity... even such a powerful Gemini couldn't escape the fate of dissipating, but thankfully, at the last moment, he found salvation with Athena!
He also accepted his past self, letting go of everything he had done. Regardless of good or evil, Gemini remained the Goddess's Saint, worthy of the title of strongest Saint.
.....
〜Bleach World, Karakura Town〜
Rukia shook her head and sighed,
"It feels like Gold Saints can't do anything without killing a god. Every one of them exchanges blows with a god at their limit."
Gemini truly leaves a lingering feeling. These Gold Saints are indeed ridiculously strong, showing no fear of gods, and some even go after gods intentionally.
Orihime Inoue silently counted on her fingers:
"Cancer's master and disciple killed a Death God, Hakurei fought the God of Sleep, El Cid challenged the Four Dream Gods with his sword, Aquarius froze the Sea God, Gemini soloed the pseudo-god of time, Yoma..."
Listening to Orihime's murmur, Ichigo Kurosaki felt a wave of speechlessness and asked from the depths of his soul,
"Wait!! Aren't there too many gods in the Underworld?!"
No wonder they all went after gods; it was truly out of necessity, with no other opponents to choose from! With so many gods on the other side, you could hit one just by throwing a brick, so all they could do was fight gods, right?
〜Konosuba World〜
Even the dim-witted goddess Aqua couldn't help but complain after watching:
"This is outrageous... According to that world's perspective, theoretically, that's a passage only gods can open."
How could this human possibly touch the realm of the gods! It's too much of a cheat.
Kazuma's expression also became a bit more serious after hearing Aqua's words. Although Aqua was a dim-witted goddess, she was still a god, and what she said made some sense.
So he asked in confusion,
"Are you saying Aspros has the talent of a god?!"
Aqua shook her head,
"Perhaps it's because he's proficient in 'Another Dimension'!"
His 'Another Dimension' space's environment itself was very similar to a god's passage. In her opinion, a god's passage was more like an upgraded version of an 'Another Dimension'!
Other Gold Saints were already impressive enough, but Gemini was incredibly strong. It felt like there wasn't a single weak Gold Saint.
〜Type-Moon World, ██████ Worldline, Chaldea〜
Having witnessed the arrogance of the gods within, Da Vinci was also very curious about the goddess who could command the loyalty of the Gold Saints:
"Perhaps only Athena can empathize with mortals and embrace all the light and darkness of humanity."
Growing from a girl in the slums to the goddess of the Sanctuary, she had experienced human growth from a young age!
And her childhood experiences had already imbued her divinity with human emotions, destining her to become a goddess who could resonate with humanity!
Mash had a hint of sorrow:
"Yes... Aspros's brilliant life finally received affirmation from the goddess he once served."
There are no people who are solely good or evil in this world. Aspros was not just evil, despite the many mistakes he had made.
But he was also a human who lived with all his might! In the last moments of his life, Gemini entrusted his hope to the next generation and left this world with a sense of relief.
〜Saint Seiya Shioriverse, The Lost Canvas timeline〜
On Kanon Island, looking at his brother who ultimately dissipated, Defteros felt a touch of sadness, but more so, relief:
"You finally won, brother... I sincerely thank you, Lady Athena."
The demon who once made our lives a mess finally died by our hands! The mistakes made in the past also received the Goddess's forgiveness.
But thinking that it was only the future, and the demon was still alive in the present, Defteros showed a cold smile again:
"Heh... Demon! Your good days are coming to an end."
Perhaps he wasn't an opponent now, but the opponent's weakness had been exposed!
And what he needed to do now was to train specifically for Yoma's abilities, to make himself stronger! And then await the Holy War.
...
And Yoma, mixed among the Specters, no longer had his former calm and composure. His face twisted with uncontrollable rage:
"BASTARD!!"
He never imagined that he, a god, would actually lose to mere humans, and to the two brothers he once toyed with!
Now all his cards were laid bare. Forget about seeking revenge on the heavens; he might not even get the Pegasus God Cloth!
.....
[ As Gemini dissipated, the scene shifted, returning to a short while ago, in the House of the Earth Star!
Radamanthys, empowered by divine blood, looked at a pillar nearby: "Since just now, you haven't hidden your gaze, only constantly looking at me. What exactly do you want to do?"
As Radamanthys spoke, Regulus of Leo emerged from behind the shadows, Radamanthys's figure reflected in his pupils: "Wyvern, all of it! All your movements, every gesture."
"I merely observe and then firmly remember. And those whom I remember will all be surpassed by me."
Radamanthys sneered, "So, you're just a brat who's surpassed those incompetent fools and gotten carried away?" ]
[ .....]
〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"Oh?! Now it's Leo and one of the Three Judges? But the height difference and age gap are too big."
"Hahaha, Regulus seems a bit amusing. He doesn't hide himself at all, just stares openly at others. Isn't that a bit too arrogant?"
Everyone looked at Leo with a mix of laughter and tears. What could you possibly observe like that? You can't just watch someone walk a few times and discover their weakness, can you?
.....
[ The next second, the Wyvern bared his fangs and let out a roar: "Don't compare me to those incompetent fools... I have surpassed humanity!!"
"Roar of the Wyvern—!"
A terrifying roar emanated from his mouth, and wherever the powerful shockwave passed, the ground was all torn up. The little lion was also caught in it, pressed under the rubble.
Radamanthys looked at the scene of ruins before him, disdainfully turning his head: "Crushed to dust?!"
So he intended to turn and leave!
But...
Just as he turned around, a move identical to his, carrying immense power, struck him from behind!
That was... Roar of the Wyvern?!!
Radamanthys was filled with shock, but unable to dodge, he took the full force of the blow with his body! ]
[ .....]
〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"No... Brother!! You're serious. Even a genius needs to follow basic laws. Can this really be learned just by watching?!"
"Heh, while others are still stunned and amazed watching someone use a move, he's already learned it and can counterattack!"
Everyone in other worlds was dumbfounded. Although there had been a precedent when fighting Violate!
But this time it was one of the Three Judges! The speed and power of the attacks far exceeded Violate's. And you can still learn it just by looking?!
When fighting Violate, he at least put on a show, taking a skill head-on and then silently taking a beating! That was considered courtesy... But now, he's not even pretending, is he?
"Surely not every move can be learned at a glance? What is this, Full Counter?! A certain captain has something to say..."
Damn, not just anyone can be a Gold Saint. No wonder he became Leo at such a young age. With this ability, who else would be?
.....
〜Saint Seiya Shioriverse, The Lost Canvas timeline〜
Seeing this, Manigoldo didn't stand on ceremony, putting his arm around Regulus's shoulder in a brotherly fashion:
"Tell me honestly, do you always secretly watch people..."
Regulus scratched his hair, a little embarrassed:
"Uh... what aspect are you referring to?!"
Seeing Regulus's expression, Manigoldo's mouth twitched. He was certain this kid had learned all the Gold Saints' techniques!
Sisyphus, suddenly remembering something, quickly leaned into Regulus's ear and whispered,
"You learned the Genro Maoken, didn't you! It's a forbidden technique, don't use it carelessly..."
As Regulus's uncle, Sisyphus did not doubt that Regulus had learned all of Gemini's techniques shown on the screen!
Everyone present was a Gold Saint, so their whispers were no different from speaking loudly. The other Gold Saints pretended not to hear.
And the Pope, caught in the middle, didn't know what to say. The Genro Maoken was indeed a forbidden technique, but did Regulus count as secretly learning it? Yes!
But he didn't go to the Astrological Tower, so it wasn't really secretly learned; he learned it himself just by watching!
Sigh... forget it. He'd pretend not to hear. After all, he had high hopes for this once-in-a-century genius of the Sanctuary.
