Underworld Artifact: The Twelve Blood Sisters!
With this, the two underworld artifacts of Erhart and Rebold were finally completed.
The Demon Star.
The Underworld Armor.
The perfect underworld warrior.
The underworld artifact.
The first two form a perfect cycle. As long as the Demon Star is born, Hades only needs a single thought to bring forth the underworld armor.
The latter two form another perfect cycle. Once a perfect underworld warrior is born, Hades bestows divine power, which naturally forges the most suitable underworld artifact for that warrior.
This is the essence of the underworld artifact.
After their underworld artifacts were created, Erhart and Rebold knelt on one knee in reverence, pledging their loyalty and respect to their lord, Hades.
Following this, the two underworld warriors entered a period of seclusion to cultivate diligently. Without such effort, they would have no place in the underworld.
After all, among the perfect underworld warriors, Garon, drawing upon his divine origins, had already reached the pinnacle of the Chief God level.
In fact, with Hades' further advancement, Garon could easily step into the realm of the God-King.

Elysium
The ancient gods Erebus and Nyx, husband and wife, had already departed.
Hades sat quietly on his throne, deep in thought.
At that moment, Persephone and Hestia, the two most noble and revered goddesses of the underworld, arrived.
"Husband!"
"Brother!"
"Persephone."
"Sister."
Hades looked at the two women with a calm expression. It was rare to see Hades show such tranquility, which indicated that he genuinely cared for these two goddesses.
For a god who controls emotion with reason, feelings are not easy to come by.
To gods, in fact, emotions are not necessarily a good thing.
However, Hades didn't mind. In his view, even as a god, having emotions was natural.
Since that was the case, it made sense that having feelings was both normal and reasonable.
If a being were truly devoid of all emotions and cut off from everything, what meaning would that existence have?
Hades did not know the answer to that.
At the very least, Hades was not that kind of god.
While Hades' emotions were sparse, even faint feelings are still feelings, and to have people he cared about was significant.
He always took such emotions seriously, no matter the circumstances.
That was Hades' nature.
It had always been that way.
In all matters, Hades was serious and extremely earnest.
After all, once he made a choice, it wasn't something to easily abandon.
It was important—at least to Hades.
This was Hades' unchanging personality.
"Brother!"
"Brother!"
Hestia excitedly ran over, plopping herself onto an empty throne, sitting cross-legged, and exclaimed, "Look, look! How is the underworld warrior search device your wife and I made? How is it?"
Hades calmly responded, "It's excellent."
"Hehe~"
Receiving praise, Hestia giggled like a child.
In reality, Hestia really did behave like a child. She hadn't experienced the struggles and trials of life.
Unlike the original story where she had to face numerous challenges on Mount Olympus, things were entirely different in the underworld.
On Mount Olympus, Hestia would have had to deal with endless schemes and conflicts, making a peaceful life almost impossible.
In such an environment, Hestia's mindset would naturally be different.
However, the underworld was different. Here, Hestia could simply enjoy a peaceful life.
Hades truly treated this sister who chose to follow him as family, not without emotion, but with genuine sibling affection.
Because of this, Hestia enjoyed her life. Every day, she was happy and carefree, without any worries.
She did whatever she wanted.
It was a life of pure joy.
For this reason, Hestia's personality underwent a complete transformation.
This was a good thing, with nothing bad about it.
"Haha~"
Persephone, meanwhile, sat gently on her throne as the queen of the underworld, her expression soft.
From the three thrones in Elysium, it was evident.
Hades and Persephone, the king and queen of the underworld, needed no explanation.
But the third throne was prepared for Hestia, which spoke volumes.
Clearly, there was no need for more words. It symbolized Hades' deep affection for his sister.
Likewise, Persephone understood Hestia's love for the underworld, a love that came from her very soul.
If one day the underworld were to face destruction, Hestia would not hesitate to sacrifice her own life to protect it.
That was Hestia's nature.
To her, her brother, sister-in-law, and the underworld were all more important than her own life.
This was the most profound change in Hestia's character, and it was the best change of all.
