Chapter 319: Declaration, This is the Divine Judgment
"No, you killed Athena... You've gone mad, Zeus! I will never submit to you!"
However, Hades's defiance exceeded Zeus's expectations.
He chose to self-destruct as a final act of resistance, preferring death over becoming Zeus's prisoner.
As a ship of the same series as Zeus, Hades's self-destruction created an unprecedented shockwave.
Zeus, being the closest, was engulfed by the blast.
The concentrated energy created a thermal differential in the air.
The resulting shockwave turned the surrounding ruins to dust, scattering them with a hot wind.
Though He had prepared, Zeus's mecha form still suffered damage.
"—Foolish... To make such a senseless choice, Hades, my brother. You, the god of the underworld, would rather submit to death than walk with me?!"
Zeus's voice was filled with sorrow and anger.
He had not killed the other mecha gods.
