"Eros, if we keep fighting like this, once I regain my authority, your loss will be inevitable."
During a brief lull, Hades’ face showed a rare, sincere smile.
She was enjoying herself. She was exhilarated. She was reveling in the thrill of battle.
Though Hecate could suppress Hades’ authority, such suppression couldn’t last forever.
"You talk too much. So you think you’re the only one with a shot at victory?"
Eros let out a scoff.
"If you were truly certain of your win, why waste ti with idle chatter?"
Compared to Hades, Eros had far more experience. The new power coursing through them was still foreign to her, unfamiliar.
Moreover, the mysterious divine fragnt within her was subtly responding to Eros, on the verge of being pulled out of her body altogether.
If Eros really wanted to fight dirty, he could’ve easily rallied Athena and the others to gang up on her. In her current condition, Hades wouldn’t stand a chance.
But that wasn’t what Eros wanted. And Hades wouldn’t accept such a victory either.
At this point, continuing the fight would only drag things into a stalemate.
Eros needed a greater push, sothing powerful enough to drive his strength to heights never before reached.
And now, what could still drive Eros forward?
Concern for humanity? Responsibility to Zeus? His refusal to lose to Hades?
Countless thoughts and emotions surged through his mind, until only one remained, raw and honest:
The true reason he had pushed the battle this far...
He wanted to defeat Hades completely, body and soul. To crush her stubborn devotion to sisterhood, and twist it into a deep affection for him.
His lust for Hades, his desire to conquer the beautiful goddess, was the very root of everything he had done.
All the talk of responsibility and justice? aningless in the end. What truly drove Eros was the primal yearning to claim her.
"Co, Hades! Let’s finish this once and for all!"
There was no need to pretend anymore. He let instinct guide him, and aid to utterly defeat her.
In that instant of clarity, Eros’ aura exploded!
BOOM!
It soared higher, crazier, more ferocious than ever before!
Marked line – possibly needs slight toning for so platforms:
姦姦姦姦姦!
(A stylistic, suggestive sound effect to emphasize the "lust-fueled" surge in power)
His power now burned fifty tis more intensely than ever before.
Such unfiltered lust. Such wild madness. Such bold, shaless craving.
How could Hades withstand that?
"How... how can this be?!"
Caught off guard, she channeled all her energy in response, driven by the purest emotions from deep within.
Her attachnt to family. The sorrow of being alone. Her helplessness at being unable to reunite her sisters.
With a peak output of five hundred thousand horsepower, bolstered by her vast godly might, she released her strongest blow yet, maybe even enough to surpass her limits.
She wasn’t sure how she would win, but she didn’t believe she would lose.
"Damn it! Absolute power, co to !!"
Before her astonished eyes, a flood of strength burst forth from every cell in Eros’ body.
In an instant, he surpassed the 500,000 horsepower threshold. His magnetic field raged forward like a storm.
590,000. 640,000...
The mont his fists collided, the power he summoned had already climbed to a new, unreachable peak,
"Atomic Fission State! 750,000 Horsepower! WHALE-KILLING DOMINATOR FIST!"
There was no way, no possible way, for Hades to block that.
The mont their fists t, her arm exploded from the impact.
Eros’ punch tore through her defense, straight through her divine body!
"Now... fall before !!"
Under her stunned gaze, Eros forcefully blasted her down into the ground.
Despite her earlier display, she ultimately had no choice but to fall, because Eros had gone beyond her reach.
His drive, his determination, his burning desire to win, they all pushed him further than she could go.
After the decisive blow, Eros didn’t rush to act again. He simply stood in place, savoring the breakthrough he had achieved.
This was the power that ca from unmatched resolve. From gravity-defying ascension... all the way to Atomic Fission.
His strength had multiplied explosively, and with it, ca a completely new level of control.
What once took imnse energy, like molecular reconstruction, now ca effortlessly to him.
And it was thanks to Hades. Her pressure. Her challenge. Her passion in battle.
If not for her, this breakthrough might have taken much longer.
This was his first ti fighting soone who also used magnetic force, and the clash between kindred warriors stirred a unique euphoria.
The others were still dazed, overwheld by the ferocity of the battle.
Just when they thought it would be a long standoff, Eros had surged forward and crushed Hades with absolute force.
[Title Unlocked: Strongest Being in the Underworld]
With Nyx’s support, there was no denying it, Eros now stood as the strongest being in the Underworld. The throne of Hades was well within reach.
Effect: Massive increase in Legendary Value. Acquired skill: [Corpse Aura – Underworld Wave]
Hearing this, Eros raised an eyebrow.
"Corpse Aura – Underworld Wave" wasn’t particularly useful for offense, but it could be used to teleport between the mortal world and the Underworld.
Now the Underworld was basically his backyard. Co and go as he pleased.
But now wasn’t the ti for experints.
Eros descended to where Hades had landed.
Luckily, her divine body was tough enough to survive the blow, barely. Otherwise, she would’ve been sent straight to Tartarus.
Still, she could only slowly recover using what little power she had left.
"You’ve lost, Hades."
"...Yeah. I didn’t think I’d really lose to you."
She didn’t offer any excuses, only calm acceptance.
"Do what you want with or Persephone. That’s your right now."
There was peace in her smile. She had released most of her inner turmoil through the battle.
No more strength left to argue. The wild brawl had been more than enough.
"My plan remains unchanged," Eros said. "Persephone will spend three months each year in the Underworld as Queen, and the rest of the ti on the surface."
"When she is here, winter will fall upon the earth. When she returns above, spring will bloom once more."
"That is her fate."
Upon reflection, Eros realized another reason for his smooth breakthrough: his actions had aligned perfectly with fate itself.
Though Fate may seem impartial, it doesn’t always oppose those who diverge from it.
When one acts in harmony with fate’s design, they may find destiny lending its strength instead.
As the saying goes, when the ti is right, all things fall into place. When fortune fades, even heroes are bound.
Now Eros finally understood why Zeus had sent him. This was a lesson in fate, not an obstacle, but a force that could aid him if handled well.
Thus, he made the sa arrangent spoken of in legend.
But hearing this, Deter instinctively began to protest.
"Why does it have to be like this? Haven’t we already, "
SLAP!
Finally, the "Personality Correction Palm" he learned from Hera had its mont.
In a flash, Eros appeared before Deter and slapped her hard across the face.
Hecate looked away, pretending to be deep under Nyx’s control, entirely ignoring the scene, while also casually suppressing Deter’s agricultural authority.
Stunned, Deter stood frozen.
She had suffered many injuries in life, but no humiliation like this. Even Hera had never struck her.
Yet Eros had dared do it!
"You really are self-centered, aren’t you?" Eros said flatly.
So people needed a hard wake-up call.
"Have you ever once thought about what your daughter actually wants?"
"Or her feelings? Or her voice?"
"Your mind is filled with nothing but yourself, your pride, your maternal ego, your possessive love."
"To you, your daughter is just a trophy, an extension of your vanity. Sothing to mold, to show off."
The blow, and the verbal assault, left Deter dazed.
But sowhere deep down, she began to question herself. Eros’ words... they made too much sense.
Had she really been so selfish? Was it all just for her own satisfaction?
"Persephone. Talk to your mother."
Eros shook his head. One slap was enough, he didn’t feel like wasting more breath.
"As for the surface world... it’s ti she stopped this madness."
The one who ties the knot must be the one to untie it. Eros left the matter to Persephone. A mother and daughter, finally forced to talk.
With this final thread resolved, Eros turned to the Underworld gods.
"Everyone, this gathering is over."
"Her Majesty Hades is unwell. We’ll reconvene another ti to discuss the Underworld’s future."
He still had important matters to handle. Too many people around would just get in the way.
The show was over. The goddesses reluctantly took their leave, but not before lining up to introduce themselves and invite Eros to visit them soti.
So of them lingered, hoping to catch a private mont.
