Dark Cloths!
Sora could roughly guess what this dark power was.
After all.
What dark power could be contained on Death Queen Island? Anyone could guess with their knees.
Sora and Persephone landed on Death Queen Island.
Hot!
Very hot!
If.
Ordinary people were to land on this island, they would probably be instantly vaporized by this terrifying heat wave—directly vaporized at the atomic level.
Of course.
This situation wouldn't affect the two of them.
"So this is Death Queen Island..."
Persephone also looked around, contemplating thoughtfully.
Death Queen Island was covered with traces left by flowing lava, and the central volcano occasionally erupted with terrifying magma.
It could be said without any courtesy that anyone who could survive on Death Queen Island was no ordinary person.
Besides that!
After landing on Death Queen Island, the first thing that caught the eye were Dark Cloths—precisely, damaged Dark Cloths.
"Dark Cloths."
Persephone looked around and said softly: "No one knows the true origin of Dark Cloths. Even Mother doesn't know their real origin."
"However."
"We can probably guess they might be imitations."
"After all."
"The Mu continent has already been destroyed, leaving only very few fragments."
Persephone speculated about the Dark Cloths' origins.
Sora waved his hand, divine power sweeping across.
Instantly.
All the Dark Cloths on Death Queen Island began boiling, countless fragments rapidly assembling before Sora.
In a short time.
Just in front of him, over a thousand pieces had gathered—seven to eight thousand broken Cloths.
"All Bronze Cloths."
Sora looked at these assembled fragments.
Sora didn't repair them, just displayed them before his eyes. They were covered with various cracks, and many were missing parts. From any angle, calling them scrap seemed more appropriate.
"Bronze Cloths."
Persephone scanned them one by one and said softly: "Each Bronze Cloth has over a hundred, even two hundred Dark Bronze Cloths."
"However."
"Unlike real Cloths, these are almost all defective products."
"These Dark Cloths."
"Don't have true constellation spirits inside."
"Essentially."
"They're almost useless."
Persephone shook her head but continued: "If needed, I could create countless such Dark Cloths with a wave of my hand."
"Hehehe..."
Sora smiled with amusement: "Nothing useful at all?"
"Hmm..."
"Star sand."
"Star cores."
Persephone thought briefly: "These are probably the only useful things. These are divine objects that only the Mu continent produced in the mythological era."
"These divine objects are very suitable for forging battle garments."
"It can be said."
"Except for Specter Saints, the battle garments of warriors under various gods all contain star sand and star cores."
"However."
"These aren't very useful. Mother has also collected very many. Even using star cores and star sand for forging, at minimum, tens of thousands of battle garments could be made."
"Still the same point—battle garments without cores are essentially meaningless."
Persephone's words made Sora contemplate thoughtfully.
After a moment.
Sora asked: "What is the core?"
"The core of each Cloth is illuminated by the 88 constellations. The master of Sanctuary isn't just that simple, but also the master of 88 constellations."
"This is the true core."
"For example."
"Ares's Berserkers, Apollo's Corona Saints."
"Berserker garments contain war cores."
"Corona Saint garments contain solar cores."
Persephone's explanation made Sora nod with understanding, one hand rubbing his chin thoughtfully: "If that's the case..."
Sora opened one hand, and instantly.
Dark divine power flowed into the Dark Cloths before him.
Each Dark Cloth seemed to be boiling.
In an instant.
When everything returned to calm, the Dark Cloths had regained silence, and their former damage and cracks had vanished.
Now each Dark Cloth radiated ink-black light.
If.
The biggest difference between the current Dark Cloths and before was.
The previous Dark Cloths were dead, without any spiritual existence.
But the current Dark Cloths had come alive, possessing brilliant spirituality.
"Darkness."
Sora said with interest: "Persephone, now, do these Dark Cloths possess cores?"
"Dust..."
Persephone said helplessly: "With your status, injecting a strand of your divine power into these Dark Cloths is already sufficient. This dark core is enough for these Dark Cloths to nurture corresponding constellations—just dark versions."
"Like this..."
Sora began contemplating slightly.
Persephone felt helpless. Indeed, her divine master was a treasure himself, but he completely didn't understand or simply didn't care.
Specter Saints.
Evil God Tool users.
Why had these become the two current teams under Sora, even requiring dependents to fill their ranks?
Simple!
Specter Saints' source was Demon Stars; Evil God Tool users' source was Evil God Tools.
These all possessed the essence of infinite evolution.
This was the core and endpoint.
In other words.
If Sora was willing, he could instantly create countless battle garments containing cores. Wanting to create subordinate warriors? He really could create countless with a wave of his hand.
Though Persephone felt helpless, she still explained wholeheartedly: "Normally, true Cloths need recognition from the 88 constellations to possess cores and grow."
"And..."
"Dust, by injecting dark divine power into them, these Dark Cloths have already passed the first step and possess cores."
"Unexpectedly."
"As time passes, these Dark Cloths will naturally nurture corresponding dark constellations."
"Well!"
"It doesn't really matter anyway."
Sora waved his hand casually: "Let's go. The dark power attracting me doesn't come from here. This was just done casually."
"Mm!"
Persephone nodded.
The two continued toward the deeper parts of Death Queen Island.
Actually.
Sora was now somewhat confused. Precisely speaking, Dark Cloths shouldn't only have Dark Bronze Cloths—there should also be higher-level Dark Cloths.
After all.
In Saint Seiya Lost Canvas, Dark Silver Cloths appeared.
Then.
Theoretically, shouldn't Dark Gold Cloths exist?
Of course.
These were just Sora's speculations. Although, following his will, he could instantly cover all of Death Queen Island and understand everything he wanted to know, if he did that.
In Sora's view, that would be too boring and tedious.
Take it slowly.
Look slowly.
Having transformed from a short-lived species to a long-lived species, he should take it step by step.
The corner of Sora's mouth was full of smiles. He and Persephone walked along like sightseeing tourists. Although Death Queen Island didn't have any beautiful scenery, this was relative.
Walking around and looking was never bad.
Soon.
The two arrived at the volcano's edge, looking at the 'gurgling' boiling magma below, as if it could erupt at any moment.
Persephone looked deeply at the volcano and said thoughtfully: "Dust, something seems hidden in the volcano."
"I can feel it."
Sora nodded: "I can feel that the dark power truly attracting me is inside the volcano."
"Let's go."
"Go in and see."
"Alright."
Sora and Persephone leaped down, instantly disappearing into the terrifying magma.
Boom!!!
As the two rushed into the volcano, the entire volcano seemed stimulated and instantly erupted. Endless magma spewed out, completely covering all of Death Queen Island.
All the Dark Cloths were swept by magma and flowed into seawater, making 'sizzling' sounds.
However.
Each Dark Cloth flashed with ink-black light, as if nothing had happened.
"Barrier?"
"Not worth mentioning!"
The moment Persephone entered, she felt a barrier but didn't care at all. With a wave of her hand, everything vanished.
And instantly.
Persephone's divine power constructed a barrier, incorporating all of Death Queen Island within it.
Although.
Her divine master gave no orders, in Persephone's view, her divine master would probably also like this Death Queen Island, so she'd incorporate it.
Sora said with interest: "Persephone, can this barrier block the gaze of the main gods?"
Persephone nodded and said: "Sora, this barrier is nothing to the God Kings, but for the main gods, even Athena, Ares and others who have reached the pinnacle of main gods, it is impossible to discover."
Sora nodded with interest, and at this time the two had already crossed the barrier.
In an instant.
The two seemed to enter a place filled with endless darkness, yet they could see everything clearly.
"It seems."
"This is the true fragment of the Mu continent."
"No!"
Sora thoughtfully pondered, then shook his head and said: "It's not truly a fragment of the Mu continent. This place should be said to be built with the Mu continent fragment as its core, containing darkness, thus constructing a special dimensional world."
"Please..."
"Revenge!"
"Hatred!"
As soon as Sora arrived here, he sensed various different wills.
No!
To be precise.
These should not be called wills, but pure dark power, and these dark powers were filled with resentment, madness, hatred, and various other negative divine powers.
Sora's mind moved, and everything immediately calmed down. He interestingly surveyed his surroundings, saying with interest: "It looks like these Dark Cloths are quite interesting indeed."
"Dark Cloths."
Persephone also looked around.
Sure enough.
Dark Cloths appeared one by one.
Many!
Many!
There were really too many. The Dark Cloths here included Dark Gold Cloths like Aries and others, Dark Silver Cloths like Aquila and others, as well as Dark Bronze Cloths.
To be precise.
All the dark versions of the Cloths could be seen here, with black Dark Cloths floating in all directions.
"Ophiuchus Cloth."
"This Ophiuchus Gold Cloth has been completely sealed away in the Sanctuary."
"Here, we can actually see the Dark Ophiuchus Gold Cloth."
Persephone immediately spotted the most special and most magnificent Dark Cloth.
And!
The Dark Ophiuchus Gold Cloth was also the rarest among all Dark Cloths.
How many Dark Cloths were there here exactly?
Hard to say!
But roughly speaking, there were at least hundreds of thousands, perhaps even millions.
But there were only about a thousand Dark Ophiuchus Gold Cloths, indeed the smallest number.
"This number is truly astonishing!"
Persephone spoke with a touch of emotion.
Sora said nothing, just took a step forward, then spread his arms wide.
Instantly!
Infinite dark power began surging into Sora's body from all directions.
In an instant.
This dark dimensional world actually began to lose its darkness, gradually revealing its original appearance, like a dimensional space.
And all the endless darkness had completely surged into Sora's body.
All the Dark Cloths had fallen down, the original darkness had disappeared, as if everything had vanished.
Behind Sora, brilliant light appeared.
It was like a universe, rapidly gestating.
In a short time.
A universe began to appear, and within it, the light of the 88 constellations was shining, dazzling light beginning to flicker with brilliant radiance.
"Indeed."
"According to Sora's divine rank, if he wants to do it, it can be done easily."
Persephone gently shook her head.
Even though.
The 88 constellations themselves possessed divine rank, with essence comparable to God Kings, in front of Sora, they were simply not worth mentioning.
The 88 constellations.
The 108 Demon Stars.
Both of these.
Were very special. When exactly were they born?
This was really hard to say.
But what must be acknowledged is that both of these, if the divine power they contained could be transformed into deities, would possess divine rank equivalent to God Kings.
This is also why.
The 108 Demon Stars signed contracts with Hades, because Hades simply had no way to truly completely control the 108 Demon Stars.
Similarly!
Athena also could not truly completely control the 88 constellations, everything was done through contracts.
But the 108 Demon Stars were different with Sora. Although it seemed like contracts were signed, they were actually master-servant contracts, with the 108 Demon Stars completely becoming Sora's possessions.
This was the difference brought about by different divine ranks.
Like this current scene, Sora had only obtained a trace of the essence of the 88 constellations, but under such simple circumstances, he could already reverse engineer and directly create the Dark 88 constellations.
As for!
What use was this exactly?
Uh~~~
Probably just for fun?
Persephone temporarily didn't know clearly, and these Dark 88 constellations were rapidly being perfected, rapidly being completed, becoming truly no different from the real 88 constellations—Dark 88 constellations.
Besides this.
"Sora..."
Persephone spoke softly with gentle eyes: "Your divine power is truly terrifying! However, having forged the Dark 88 constellations, these imitations are also useless."
"Imitations?"
Sora shook his head at this time, saying with interest: "They're not really imitations, to be precise, they just haven't become genuine articles. Sometimes, when something is clearly born but is regarded as an imitation, who could accept that?"
Sora turned his head to look at Persephone, revealing a smile, and seeing this smile, Persephone also instantly understood, the corners of her mouth curving into a smile.
