Hearing Hades' words, Erebus and Nyx frowned.

His eyes revealed an extremely serious expression.

Erebus, in particular, felt as if his body was being eroded by a furious storm, and his heart was filled with intense rage.

This anger was even more evident when Hades had just perfectly parried his attack.

Hades even boasted that he would settle their differences before engaging in a final battle with the human.

This made him even more confused and angry.

He wanted to know where Hades got such confidence.

Does simply suppressing him and Nyx mean one is capable of defeating them both in a one-on-two fight?

Keep in mind, he had just woken up and wasn't even at his peak yet!

Moreover, everyone present could see that Hades was deliberately protecting that human!

He almost stopped acting altogether.

If the two gods are defeated, this person will be unstoppable and can leave at any time.

At that point, Hades' battle with that man would turn into a boring farce.

In any case, if they are both defeated, they will surely fall into a deep sleep.

Although they are gods, they do not experience death.

However, if they are traumatized to a particularly severe degree, they will fall into a prolonged sleep.

During this time, they will gradually regain their strength to be resurrected.

But they have no way of knowing what's going on outside.

Hades and that human can fight as they please.

They can fight for as long as they want, and fight however they want!

Who knows if Hades will continue to let the water flow freely?

Although Hades has always valued fair competition, no one can guarantee that he won't violate fairness in battle.

Therefore, when they heard Hades' words, their minds almost unanimously rejected the idea.

Absolutely not.

Moreover, Hades's overconfidence infuriated them.

"Hades, what makes you think you can beat us so easily?"

Erebus's angry voice echoed in the air.

Nyx did not speak, but her silence indicated her support for Erebus.

After all, they are one.

She usually acquiesces whenever Erebus speaks.

Faced with Erebus's furious questioning, Hades merely smiled coldly and snorted:

"Because I am the king of this underworld!"

With a wave of his hand, the spear sliced ​​through the air and instantly ignited scorching flames, rising up from the void of darkness.

A raging sea of ​​fire instantly tore through the black hole, and the scorching waves were so dazzling that they almost enveloped the entire world.

"I have participated in thousands of wars and have even personally severed the heads of ancient giants."

“Every scar on my body is a symbol of my strength and glory.”

His gaze was as sharp as a sword as he stared at the two gods who were immersed in darkness.

"The gods feared my power and sealed me in the underworld."

"They even had to limit my strength just to prevent me from resisting."

This was a compromise for the gods, but for Hades, it was more of a promise.

After all, they were once Hades' comrades.

No one can deny that Hades abducted Persephone.

Even the twelve main gods of that time could not stop him, which is proof of his great power.

That's why Hades compromised with them, because he knew his power would frighten the gods.

"And you,"

Hades' voice stopped abruptly, followed by a cold laugh.

That cold laugh seemed like a blatant mockery of the two gods.

That is indeed the case.

Nyx and Erebus.

In his eyes, they were nothing more than beings who had been fortunate enough to attain godhood.

It is precisely because they are born from rules that they can become rule-followers and possess the power of rules.

Unlike Hades, they did not climb to godhood step by step through their own strength and effort.

From the moment of their birth, they were destined to be supreme gods, surpassing all other gods.

Similarly, Hades respected them not because of their great power.

After all, no matter how strong someone is, they can't compare to him.

Born of rules and abiding by rules is the main reason why they are respected by Hades.

Because Hades also values ​​fairness and abides by the rules.

Aside from the fact that he was so enamored with Persephone that he abducted her in front of all the gods.

This is the only mistake he made that he will never regret.

Moreover, Hades was punished for this incident afterward.

As the ruler of the underworld, he values ​​fairness and justice.

Furthermore, it will subject all sinners who escape justice in the human world to a merciless judgment in the underworld, plunging them into an eternal purgatory of torment.

No one who comes to the underworld can escape his judgment.

Therefore, Hades hates evil people, and even more so those who disregard the rules and take shortcuts.

However, Nyx, who should have followed the rules, ignored Hades' rules instead.

They arbitrarily altered the trial content and even included their own divine child as part of the trial.

Their unscrupulous actions crossed Hades' bottom line.

"My respect for you does not mean you can challenge my bottom line without limit!"

Hades' angry voice echoed through the chaos.

Terrifying flames surged forth, and wave after wave of scorching heat scorched everything around them.
