The Cloth obtained after defeating God King Melqart.
This ancient Phoenician God King did not have a directly corresponding constellation. However, in the world of Fox God users, different God systems and divine beings might still be intricately linked.
Simply put, from a mythological perspective, Melqart's characteristics are closer to a "cyclical death and rebirth" God, similar to Osiris.
Babylon referred to the Boötes constellation as the "Faithful Shepherd," which is similar to Melqart's title. Babylonian cuneiform texts record the "GIR.TAB" star cluster, and in Greek mythology, the divine being corresponding to it is Hercules.
Therefore, whether it is the northern celestial constellation Hercules, or the zodiacal constellation Capricorn, both could potentially manifest from Melqart's being.
However, as Athena said, the strong fortune brought by victory, now facing the Ancient Night before him, the most suitable Cloth appeared on him in the form of thunderous shock and the sun.
Betelgeuse, Orion constellation.
The radiance of the sun, centered on the Orion Cloth in its Sun-Hunter Form, expanded outwards.
The swarm of serpents, driven by the Triune Goddess, instinctively felt terror at this moment, but it was already too late to retreat.
This halo of pupil-red light, a Solar Sanctuary, had already swept towards them.
The serpents made a final charge amidst their hissing, but as the light halo expanded, the black on their bodies instantly solidified into lifeless pale white, and scorching flames shot out, with plumes of smoke symbolizing burned and ruined bodies rising, then converging behind Seiya, like a pale white halo.
Sun-Scorpion Form, a form rumored to only be possessed by the Sun-Scorpion Sacred Robe, whose performance and defense both surpass that of a Gold Cloth, now materialized on Orion's body by Seiya's will.
"Tosho and White Horse, this power of the sun! So that's it, it truly was I who called to you." As Metis, the most ancient Goddess of wisdom, the moment she saw this halo, she realized it contained the power of the White Horse Authority.
At this moment, she suddenly recalled that when she was still in her maternal phase, dominating the body of Gorgon, the last thing she did was to re-bury Prometheus's stone tablet in that hidden forest.
She understood now; Seiya was indeed right that day. It was indeed she who was calling him, but the part of her that was Metis did not know.
"O Death granted by the Underworld God, pour into my blade!" Metis showed no fear, laughing wildly as she met the rising sun from the ground.
The Saint did not speak, but swung his hand.
The radiance of the sun and the Thunder of Punishing Fire converged into a purple-gold Solar Dragon Tornado, charged with dazzling electric light, directly striking the approaching Disobedient Metis.
Her proud black barrier was disintegrated, and by the time she lunged before Seiya, she was already in the form of a pure white Goddess.
Metis, or rather... the Triune Mother in her full-power state, pressed forward into the sun's radiance.
The light before her distorted, and the Death God Scythe, empowered by the authority of the Underworld, still carved a path for her.
Then, violent atomic electricity brushed past her body on either side.
Metis coughed up a mouthful of blood, swallowed it back indifferently, and gritted her teeth, continuing to advance, striking at the Pegasus who defied her, unleashing a full power blow.
A chilling arc of light cut across the sky; the power of the entire world empowered this scythe, the authority of the Underworld condensed into a blade light that could not be dispelled.
"Your breath, your life, all shall be seized by me! You shall walk alone into the dim underworld, into the desolate fields of the cold netherworld, for I am the one who summons winter and controls life and death!" The cold ruler of the Underworld, the Queen who takes by force.
"I command you, disobedient Pegasus, become a dead king, turn into a corpse!"
Winter of Oblivion.
Endless death.
Metis, facing the raging sun, came here for this moment. She saw Pegasus's lips curl upwards, then unleashed the source.
An unimaginable terrifying force appeared in Metis's chest, a spiral indentation forming in her chest in one ten-thousandth of a second, then destroying the Goddess's chest.
Immediately after, a new punch once again shattered the defense brought by Ancient Night, striking her face.
Seiya held nothing back.
Harboring reverence for the Goddess and resentment towards Athena, he unleashed an unprecedented, strongest blow!
"Athena, it is now my time to save you!"
The platinum radiance of Pegasus Light Speed Fist completely enveloped Athena's vision.
A counter-mechanism would inevitably be counter-acted by even greater power.
If darkness devours light, then it will likewise be dispelled by even stronger light.
A crisp sound rang out first.
Athena's distorted eyes still tightly clutched the Death God Scythe, but she saw the blade before her shattering into pieces.
Metis was protected by a black barrier.
That was a black barrier capable of isolating all light and possessing immense power.
The white radiance was thus blocked.
This move, which she had not intended to use in her plans, still managed to save her life.
But immediately after, a new punch was already closing in on her!
"O Earth, know my resolve! O Darkness, understand our surging emotions! As the descendant of the Great Mother, Goddess Athena, I shall here punish the disobedient Pegasus! Land collapse, ground shatter, witness the brutal Song of Destruction of the Goddess!" The Goddess loudly chanted the incantation that would raise her power to its peak.
At this moment, whether it was the magicians engulfed by the expanding Ancient Night or those observing from outside, all could see that the Ancient Night, which covered reality, was faltering.
Accompanied by streaks of light like sharp swords, the domain belonging to the Disobedient God was also on the verge of collapsing.
At this moment, Lilyana, struggling hard not to fall into the endless darkness, with one hand wrapped around Princess Alice's spiritual body with Verbal Chains, and the other gripping the unconscious Alexander, was gritting her teeth and persevering when she finally saw the dawn of hope.
"It seems the victor will finally be decided," Alice's spiritual body said.
"Seiya is going to win."
"Ah, are you sure?" Although Lilyana also felt it was no longer the desperate situation it had been, being outside the battlefield, how could she be certain of the outcome within?
"Ancient Night itself is a domain that grants her immense power, and as someone of the highest celestial rank, I can still discern that much," Alice said faintly.
Because she was a witch and also in spiritual form, she was completely unable to resist the dominance of the higher-ranked Earth Mother God's black-eyed Underworld.
But also because her own status was extremely high, she could vaguely discern the story's ending.
"Then let us fight! My form shall represent the Goddess Athena of the Dark Night, Queen of the Night and Mistress of the Underworld. And my body shall bless and honor the daughter of the Earth, Goddess Medusa, Queen of the Earth and Mistress of the Stone Chamber! Come forth, all my manifestations, and together punish the rebellious Pegasus!"
Above the shattered night sky, three figures stood under the moonlight.
Athena, standing on the left with her arms crossed, Metis, standing in the center with hands on her hips, and Gorgon, with her arms crossed over her chest, were the three figures.
