While Aryan and the others were worrying about Dushala's critical condition, there was a major unrest in the Greek camp too.
In a large lavishly decorated tent which was almost the size of a basketball court, all the champions had gathered her for an urgent meeting.
"Are you telling me that both Herodius and Harman are dead? "
Danaus exclaimed in shock after receiving the battle report.
"Now this is interesting. It seems that the other side also has some capable warriors. "
Parish, Zeus's champion, said with a crazy smile on his face.
He was a well built guy with blue eyes, blonde hair and perfect facial features. He was the perfect model for the greek sculptors. But unfortunately, the arrogant smirk that constantly adorns his face makes it difficult for anyone to like him.
"This is not something to joke about Parish. It's a very pressing matter. I could understand if we're only talking about Herodius's defeat but to think that even Harman died too, it's a whole other matter. "
Rose scolded Parish in annoyance.
"I,... "
But before Parish could say anything in retort, he was interrupted by Danaus.
"I also agree with Rose on this. Although Harman was not a demigod like the rest of us, but his attainment in crafting divine artifacts is second only to Heaphestus himself in the whole Greek. That's why he was accepted as an apprentice by Heaphestus and even became his champion later on.
And after he wears his divine armor, he is almost invincible in terms of defense. I won't talk about his combat power but I highly doubt anyone here can kill him with his armor on. "
"Hmph! "
Parish snorted angrily but even he couldn't retort this.
"Say Cynthia, you were with Harman right, so tell us about that guy who killed Harman. "
At this time, Rose turned to Cynthia.
"I don't know much either. I was fighting against other opponents at that time so I wasn't able to directly witness how he killed Harman either. "
Cynthia replied lazily.
"Forget about that,what I am more curious about is, how did you manage to escape from there? "
Parish asked teasingly.
"Just mind your own business Parish, I have my own ways. "
Cynthia's face turned ugly as Aryan's chilly gaze reappeared in her mind when he looked into her eyes, back when she was running away.
"Hmph, coward slut. "
Parish cursed in a low voice.
Unfortunately, all of them were powerful warriors and were able to hear it clearly. Fortunately, Cynthia knew that now was not the time to create a mess, so she only gave him a murderous look and snorted uncomfortably.
"Anyway, I think we need to come up with a strategy to deal with this guy. "
Danaus suggested, trying to shift everyone's attention back to the main topic.
"There's no need for that. Next time around, I will face him myself."
Rose declared coldly.
Everyone turned silent after hearing this. After all, Rose was the strongest one among them so no one doubted her ability deal with the opponent and simply considered this matter resolved.
But at this moment, a white pigeon suddenly entered the tent and landed on Danaus's wrist. Immediately afterwards it burst into glowing silvery dust and rearranged itself into a letter.
But the more he read, the uglier Danaus's face became.
"What is it? "
Nero, Hades's champion asked curiously when he saw the increasingly ugly expression on Danaus's face as he read the letter.
Controlling his uneasiness, Danaus revealed the bad news.
"It's Kratos, he has attacked the capital taking advantage of our absence. We immediately need to send reinforcements back to the capital. "
This news immediately shocked everyone, even more so than the death of the other two champions.
"What? That lunatic is back again ? What a drag! "
Even Ambre, Apollo's champion, who rarely spoke in the meetings also couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Since even a lazy introvert like him was surprised, everyone else's reaction can be judged from this.
"How many people are we sending back? "
Rose asked somberly.
"Uh, since we have to follow the Gods' orders, we can't abandon our current mission and can only send three or four people to deal with Kratos at best. "
Danaus said after a little consideration.
"Hey Danaus, I am definitely going no matter what. I have yet to settle the account for last time."
Nero said while clenching his fists.
"Alright."
Danaus agreed immediately after hearing this and no one else interfered either.
Although Nero was the youngest among all the champions, but his strength is definitely nothing to scoff at.
Especially since unlike other God's, Hades is a relatively conservative one in terms of having children. As far as everyone else knows, Nero and his late twin sister are the only ones on the surface. This Hades was very generous in giving him a custom made artifact and extra blessings.
Not to mention, Nero had a personal grudge against Kratos, who killed his twin sister in a previous confrontation. Naturally, no one objected at this time.
"In that case, I'll go too."
Parish also volunteeted.
"I can go too. "
Said Pothia, a black haired girl wearing a mask and full body combat uniform, with only a pair of cold purple eyes showing.
This girl was none other than Artemis's champion.
Like Harman, she was also a normal human previously and not a demigod.
One time when Artemis was hunting a Sphinx, she accidentally encountered Pothis and saved her life.
Later on, Pothia became Artemis's follower and joined the Order of Huntresses. Afterwards, Artemis chose Pothia as her champion since she herself is a virigin goddess and has no demigod son or daughter at all.
Just when Danaus was about to nod, he was interrupted by Rose.
"No Pothia, I'll go in your place. After all, considering Kratos's unique ability, he must have become even stronger than last time. So I'll go just in case something unexpected happens."
Rose explained seeing everyone's curiosity.
"As for here, I believe you guys should be able to handle it,right? "
After a brief discussion, Danaus clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention and announced.
"Alright then, it's settled. Nero, Parish and Rose will go back to the capital to deal with Kratos and the rest of us will handle the war here. "
The next day, Nero, Parish and Rose left for the capital and the others each took a team to launch another round of attacks on Yavan.
Meanwhile, Thia, Hestia's champion was left behind in the camp since her abilities were not suited for combat and were auxiliary abilities.
Just like that, they ruthlessly charged through Yavan's fortresses one after another.
But to their surprise, although they faced resistance but the expected formidable warriors that Cynthia spoke of never showed up at all.
