It was around then that darkness began to flood the ground like water, rising up to the knees of those remaining on the battlefield before releasing a black haze in the air. Her body disappeared with the wind, and a shadow crept along the ground of the holy territory. I do hate you.” With those words, she released the last of her level which she’d been suppressing. “You made things complicated until the end. The power of the throne was a necessary part of making Tartarus completely hers because it possessed the right of ownership. Had Hades made his preparations expecting this? When? The questions that filled her head didn’t change the fact that the power of the throne had been taken right from under her nose. Also, since the recipient was a mere mortal, the system and Allforone would have refused to allow it to happen. The throne wasn’t something that could be handed over that easily. “Is it possible?” Had Hades already given it to someone else? She thought of Yeon-woo, but she couldn’t think of when they might have made the exchange. But even as Hades’ dust faded away, she couldn’t find it at all.Ī thought occurred to Persephone. In Olympus, Hades had been the recipient, and he had descended to the Underworld with it.īut where was it? Why couldn’t she see it?

She’d hesitated because she knew that making a contract with Mother Earth would mean endangering Olympus, where her mother was. Because of that, she had contemplated for a long time before deciding to make a contract with Mother Earth.Īlthough she had resented her husband at first, after some time passed, she had begun to let go of her hard feelings. Although he’d never been able to properly express himself because of his indifferent personality, it was impossible for her not to know how much effort he took to appease her. He had stolen her youth, but…there were times when she’d nearly reciprocated his feelings. He was kneeling and supporting himself with a sword, looking as though he were simply taking a breather after an intense battle.ĭespite her cold wintery aura, for a moment, different emotions flickered on her face. “Why are you like this even until the end?” Persephone muttered quietly as she looked at Hades.
