Chapter 267
——Chaldea had used such means to change the predetermined future before.
All those who were supposed to die died in the past where they were supposed to die, no doubt about that - but Marisbilly was resurrected, Olgamari was resurrected, Lancermello was alive as a fairy, Solomon did not erase his existence, and the members of Group A were successfully thawed and returned to the Chaldean team.
Countless blanks and tiny infinite possibilities gradually accumulate to create the power to overturn fate and shake the predetermined future.
"…Although it may sound a bit arrogant to say this, pruning future branches is what I am best at." Lansemello looked at the people in front of him and threatened them with a smile, "Only if you can cooperate with my arrangements. If the plan is leaked again, the risk level will really rise to a point where I can't handle it!"
——Saga, who leaked the most information, avoided Lansemello's sight guiltily and coughed a few times awkwardly.
"The plan is basically the same as before - those who were supposed to die on that day, please voluntarily die, and the subsequent arrangements such as resurrection will be left to us adults." Lansemello pointed at the death list in the projection with his pointer, and paid special attention to Saga, Aphrodite and Camus. "Don't let those Bronze Saints go easy on you just because you want to die - they are the main force against the Hades' army in the future. If their strength is not up to standard, I will be in trouble."
"...I won't let you go." Camus answered Lancermello, his thoughts drifting to the disciple who was swept away by the ocean current and became missing not long ago. "After all, he is the only disciple I can discipline now - I will definitely train him to death. After all, how did Hyoga understand the message I sent him..."
"Regarding this point, I think it's a problem with your teaching - I didn't teach you to extract the key points this way!" Lancer Mello crossed his arms and complained to Camus, "He actually turned the question of choosing between the Sanctuary and the Gurado Foundation into a simple notice of 'taking the White Bird Cloth to Japan'... How did you teach him?"
"Dieter's key extraction isn't that outrageous, is it? Although he probably learned it from dealing with the nobles of various European countries, so it has nothing to do with me directly..."
"Dieter???"
Several participants who were used to Lancer Mello directly referring to the saints by constellations did not react immediately to who Lancer Mello was talking about. Relatively speaking, Shion, who was more familiar with Lancer Mello, did not understand what Lancer Mello was talking about at the first time, but this did not prevent him from making a shocked sound at the first time.
"You clearly remember the name!!!"
"...For me, it would be more convenient to call you by your constellations - it would also be easier for me to judge your status." Lansermello glanced at Shion coldly and gave a simple example, "After all, I am a stargazer - just like the battle between Pegasus and Draco that just ended in the Guradu Arena not long ago... You should all be paying attention to the situation there, right?"
"You all know that Draco was hit in the heart by Pegasus and his heart stopped beating, right?" Lansermelo replaced the projection with the image of the fight and showed it to everyone. "The night before the match, the light of the star corresponding to the heart in the Draco constellation became abnormal - it was like it was about to explode."
"Of course, we all know that the star did not in fact explode - and even now such anomalies are no longer seen."
"The abnormality of that star foreshadows the danger that Draco will encounter." Camus quickly summarized Lancermello's long speech and continued to move on. "So, in addition to what you said before, is there anything else you want to tell us?"
"The rest is basically Saga's job." Lansemello thought for a moment and gave an answer, "The current position is that the Sanctuary denies the legitimacy of Kido Saori - that is, they want to treat her as an imposter who uses the name of Athena. Therefore, we have to arrange an assassin to target Kido Saori."
"But, all the Bronze Saints that can be used now are outside the control of the Sanctuary—" Shion flipped open a paper list and pointed at a few names, "We can't just call them up for the preliminary preparations, right? And if we do that, the scope of those who know about it will expand again."
"So it's the Silver Saints - to be precise, all the current Silver Saints, except for Lyra, who are still alive, will participate in the assassination of Kido Saori." Lancer Mello simply pointed out the dispatch order to Saga, "After the group of Bronze Saints defeat these group of Silver Saints - arrange for the Gold Saints to go there."
"Gold Saint!?!"
"This is the future I see - the candidates for the Golden Saints are Scorpio and Leo." Lancer Mello circled Ioria's name with his pointer and shrugged at Saga, "Although Leo won't trust the Pope because of Sagittarius - but he can be fooled by provoking him a little. As for Scorpio, tell him that you are going to monitor Leo."
"Those two idiots..." Camus gasped in despair, falling on the table with lifeless eyes. "It feels like the Gold Saints are dead like this. Even if Hades hadn't planned the world line for nearly five hundred years, it would be impossible for the remaining idiots to win the holy war with these idiot Bronze Saints!"
"Be more serious, Saga and Mu are smart after all." Saga silently glanced at Shion who was sitting in the Aries seat, and reminded Camus, "And they also have Libra's teacher Dohko - besides, in fact, the final record of each holy war ends with Pegasus injuring Hades... like this."
"As long as Pegasus is alive, we will definitely win the holy war - the special attack on Pluto is not the same." Lanser Mello sneered, his eyes lingering over everyone coldly, "Anyway, the assassination of Kido Saori is arranged like this for the time being - let's talk about other things next."
"Saga, be careful not to crash your head into Athena's golden scepter - otherwise even Asclepius won't be able to be saved." Lansemero switched the projection image and his eyes fell on Camus and Aphrodite. "That's right, I need your help in this area of work."
"The two of us?" Aphrodite, who had been almost excluded from the core area of the plan by Lancermello since thirteen years ago, blinked in confusion and pointed at himself to confirm with Lancermello.
"Camus is because he has a suitable entry point to intervene; as for you..." Lansemello smiled meaningfully and gave a subtle answer, "In short, you are going to be a companion to a non-human - she kicked her husband out before, and now we are working hard to expand her range of mate choices."
"...Huh?" Saga interrupted Lansemello's speech, "Wait a minute, although Athena is a virgin goddess so the Saints don't have to consider this problem - but directly pulling Athena's Saints out and putting them in other people's mate selection options is a bit..."
"No, let me be more specific - I need help from someone in the Olympian God family tree, and she just happened to be interested in looking at other members of the God family tree, so she chose Aphrodite." Lansemello sighed helplessly, "Although I deliberately said it in a way that people could misunderstand, but apart from Aphrodite, there are no other women in the Olympian God family tree who actively mess up their love history."
"Can I know what your next plan is to deal with?" Shion, who had been persecuted by Lansemello for more than two hundred years, sighed and asked Lansemello, "You have always said that you will use all the power you can to fight Hades... So, can I know what else you are planning to do besides the Sanctuary?"
"It's Poseidon." Lansemero answered Shion, "He was the guy who was sealed in Brugrad in the past. When Dieter was running the group's initial business, he was unsealed by the son of the local lord and stuffed into a human corpse. I sealed him up again last time and moved him back to the Sanctuary."
"This time we are going to pull Poseidon's sea warriors into the ranks against Hades."
"Wait a minute, what does this have to do with me and Aphrodite?" Camus sat up again and looked at Lanthemello, asking her sincerely, "Poseidon's recorded love history shouldn't include a beautiful boy like Zeus's, right?"
"...As an Aquarius, this question is very powerful." Lansemero subtly misaligned his eyes with Camus, but soon returned to normal. "In this regard, it is because I need the assistance of the sea nymph Amphitrite. Galatea, who belongs to the genealogy of Aphrodite, has been busy with King Pygmalion and is unable to help me find Amphitrite for the time being."
"So I chose Aphrodite of Pisces to participate in the next operation." Lansemero crossed his arms and looked at Camus with a smile, "As for Camus - I hope you still remember your disciple who was swept away by the sea current not long ago? He was picked up by Poseidon's sea warriors."
"Ah, actually, the Pirates have something to do with Saga, but Saga has to stay in the Sanctuary as the Pope, so he can't participate in this operation." Lansemello pulled out the data sheets of several pairs of twins in the projection, and told Saga with a smile, "Your brother who was imprisoned in the rock prison in the Sniwan Strait is Poseidon's Pirates."
"Moreover, it was he who lifted the seal of Poseidon this time. Generally speaking, the two people under the light of Dioscuri are the type that can suppress each other..." Lansemello held his chin and looked at the only unfinished document. "But if it is the two of you now, I doubt that you have the ability to suppress each other."
Saber's Pollux can suppress the anger in Castor, an Avenger, and will try to make Valentine's Day protected chocolates for the members of Chaldea upon Castor's inquiry. In this world, this generation of Gemini, the younger brother aroused the evil hidden in the older brother's heart, but failed to suppress that evil within a reasonable range...
As the elder brother, Saga simply and roughly threw Kanon directly into the rock prison. If the two of them met in their current state, it would probably become a life-and-death battle.
"...So, that's all for this meeting." Lansemero clapped his hands and lifted all the magic he had set up in the Pope's Hall. "If there are no objections, we will start executing it from now on."
