During the time that Kuro was training and trying to familiarize himself with the Yin-Yang Sagittarius Cloth (YYSC) and his new found power, a loud snarl was heard outside of Sanctuary (12 Temples). Two figures, claiming themselves to be Myst-Vearn and Kill-Vearn, made their way to the outskirts of the 1st Temple while killing numerous civilians and Steel Saints alike (Steel Saints were the newest forces under the Sanctuary, using technology and cosmos together).
Kill-Vearn wielded a long scythe, which belonged to Death (the one exchanged with the Hades Cloth). Myst-Vearn, on the other hand, always had his eyes closed while casting multiple 1st level spells that were powerful enough to annihilate Steel Saints and 1st grade Vampire Hunters alike. He wielded a strange staff similar to the Sorcerer’s Staff used by the Dark Priest Shaft.
Myst-Vearn summoned a small fireball while uttering in a soft voice “Mera…”.
The small fireball hit the poisonous flowers planted by the Pisces Gold Saint Amor (brother of Medea, the mother of Eden in the Saint Seiya Omega Timeline) in the outskirts of the first temple, completely obliterating the whole field. This field of poisonous flowers served as a first line of defense against attackers but it was destroyed in as short as 2 breaths of time due to Myst-Vearn’s fire spell.
A notification rang in the head of Amor inside his Pisces Temple.
“Pisces poison garden has been destroyed.”
Looking into the far distance, Amor muttered to himself “Enemies have come.”
From afar, Avan, Genya, Yoko and Hammer were able to see the huge explosion of the Mera (basic fireball spell) casted by Myst-Vearn and they knew that the Sanctuary was in trouble.
“Quickly my brethren!” uttered Genya, while slowly chanting a seal-releasing spell with the assistance of Yoko.
A notification rang inside Genya’s mind.
“Unsealing Vampiric Powers.”
“Progress at 1%.”
Hammer was wearing the latest Army Prototype Kinetic Suit which enabled him to jump, double jump, and glide in short distances, allowing him to keep-up with Avan and the others. They were still 500 km from the Aries’ temple when they heard the start of fighting.
“I am able to see 3 heat signatures ahead. It seems that these 3 are quite powerful” uttered Hammer.
Meanwhile, Kuro was digesting everything that was happening to himself. He realized that his most trusted friend, Soma Cruz, killed their childhood friend Mina Hakuba and took over as the reincarnation of the Dark Lord Dracula. He is now wielding the powers of Darkness and Chaos and if he does not do anything then the whole world will be doomed.
His thirst for vengeance will only allow him to move forward and destroy the minions of Darkness in order to confront Soma. Unknown to him, Soma is the reincarnation of both Hades and Dracula, possessing Dracula’s Soul and the Hades Cloth. Even with the Ying-Yang Sagittarius Cloth (YYSC), he will still lack the power to defeat Soma unless he obtains the help of either Julius or Genya or at least a divine power similar to the Vampire Killer Whip or his cosmos should be at least at the peak of the 8th Sense.

“Let me show you what happened in our fight against Hades” muttered the YYSC.
A similar to a video playback was projected in Kuro’s consciousness, where he was able to see the final moments of the battle between Hades and Athena with her Saints.
Seiya and the others
“Pegasus! Ryu Sei Ken!” (Seiya)
“Aurora! Execution!” (Hyoga)
“Andromeda! Chain!” (Shun)
“Ryozan! Shoryuu Haa!” (Shiryu)
“Ho Yoku Tensho” (Ikki)
Donning their Divine Cloths, Seiya and the others engaged Hades in a bitter struggle until the final moment, where Seiya shielded Saori from Hades’ Sword.
“Die Athena!”
“You shall not hurt Saori as long as I am here!”
“Urgh!”
Before the Hades sword was able to pierce Seiya, the Sagittarius Gold Cloth got in the way. It was then nailed to Seiya as the Hades Sword pierced his heart. But this allowed Athena the opportunity to defeat Hades in a split second.
“I’m sorry, my brother.”
“I will end you and your evil!”
“Athena! Retribution!”
The divinity of Athena was fully channelled in the Athena Cloth and Athena Staff, fully enveloping Hades and consuming his cosmos and body.
In the last .01 seconds before being defeated, Hades also willed all of his willpower, cosmos and consciousness into the Hades Surplice (similar to what Saori did). He willed it to go to Vearn as they have planned.
A system notification rang inside the head of Hades.
“Hades’ power infused in Hades Surplice. Transportation to Vearn initiated.”
With a smirk, Hades slowly closed his eyes and fell.
The Sagittarius Cloth and the Pegasus Cloth were then transported out of Hades Elysium, heading towards Sanctuary.
The scene was cut off afterwards, leaving Kuro to ponder.
“What a terrifying battle.”
Kuro also realized that he knew Seiya somewhere, since he is the direct nephew of Seika, the former’s sister.
“So I am from the same lineage as of Seika, the sister of Seiya,” muttered Kuro.
The will inside the YYSC mumbled “I contain the power of both Hades and Athena. You can only use one power at a time since you are still not familiar with it. The other power will remain dormant. If you are able to wield both powers at the same time then you will be able to stand a chance in your fight against the forces of Darkness”.
“I understand” said Kuro. He then decided to head to Europe on his own in order to confront Soma.
Meanwhile, on the 1st Temple of Sanctuary, a fierce battle is being fought.
“The same technique will not work on a Saint twice!” uttered Aries Kiki, the direct student of Mu, the previous generations’ Aries Gold Saint.
With eyes closed, Kiki deployed the Aries Gold Saint skill Crystal Wall which reflected the 3 Meras skill casted by Myst-Vearn. The latter casted another Mera which nullified the reflected Meras, while Kill-Vearn deployed a Scythe Attack using Death’s Scythe. The Death Scythe hit the Crystal Wall and the recoil of the Dark attributed Scythe caused Kiki to spurt a mouthful of blood. The Crystal Wall showed numerous cracks after the attack, but Kiki persisted and solidified it once again using his Cosmos. The attack reflection effect of Crystal Wall also caught Kill-Vearn off-guard, injuring his robotic body in the process.
Suddenly, a strong surge of energy suddenly came from the Taurus Temple just above the Aries Temple. A loud shout was heard and suddenly a towering figure of a 2.1 meters young man was seen rushing the steps while casting a strong offensive skill.
“Ultimate Great Horn!!” Taurus Aldebaran shouted (for the Taurus Saint, they always inherit the name Aldebaran, superseding their original name and in this case Harbinger).
A bright light suddenly flashed and hit Kill-Vearn, causing him to stagger for a dozen steps before being able to stabilize himself.
“Now let us see if you can defeat the both of us in a 2on2 battle” uttered Aldebaran while slowly gathering his peak 7th sense and cosmos.
