Chapter 207: Chapter 104: Sea Dragon? No, You Are Kanon! (Part 1)

Fine frost condensed on the ice crystal spiral staircase. The crisp footsteps sounded like a death pendulum, striking at everyone’s heart with every step.

Finally, the man clad in the Aquarius Gold Cloth walked down the stairs and appeared before everyone. The white cape behind him fluttered wildly in the undercurrents of the city of Atlantis.

Alex’s gaze first fell upon the Main Pillar. Saori Kido was frozen within the solidified seawater. Her light purple hair spread out in the ice like a blooming flower. Her cheeks were tinged with a pale, bluish-white hue, and tiny ice crystals had condensed on her eyelashes, making her look both tragic and breathtakingly beautiful.

With just a single glance, Alex confirmed it. She’s fine. There’s still a faint heartbeat; she’s not completely dead.

"Heh..."

Alex chuckled softly, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.

’This woman truly won’t die so easily.’

Every time a great war had just begun, she would put on a weak, dying act. It always seemed like she would breathe her last breath at any moment, yet she would somehow stubbornly hold on until the very end, and even manage to turn the tables in a desperate situation.

It was like this during the Sanctuary incident, and it was the same now with the Sea God.

Having played this trick so many times, only the naive five Bronze Saints would get anxious enough to repeatedly erupt with power.

In his view, leaving her frozen for now was fine. Inside his ice coffin, she was far safer than she would be outside.

After confirming Saori Kido’s status, Alex slowly turned his head to look at the Sea God Poseidon, who was seated upright on his throne.

His black eyes were like ancient ice, bottomless and profound. Even the seabed’s undercurrents seemed to stagnate wherever his gaze landed.

Alex’s emotionless voice, as clear and piercingly cold as ice, rang out in the deathly silent Absolute Zero domain.

"Poseidon? It wasn’t time for your awakening yet. For you to resurrect early... are you really that eager to fall back into slumber?"

These words were like a spark falling into boiling oil, instantly enraging the Sea Dragon Mariner standing by Poseidon’s side.

He took a step forward, his Scale clashing and producing an ear-piercing sound as he shouted angrily.

"Insolent! How dare you show disrespect to the Sea God!"

The corners of Alex’s mouth curled up, and his next words made the Sea Dragon Mariner freeze instantly in place.

"Kanon, I am speaking with Poseidon. It’s not your place to interrupt?"

Beneath the Sea Dragon Scale, Kanon’s blue eyes abruptly contracted, the reflection of Alex’s cold face appearing in his pupils.

He never expected that right after arriving, Alex would immediately puncture his long-hidden identity.

The name Kanon was like an ice pick, deeply piercing open his dust-covered memories.

Shura and Aphrodite’s pupils contracted slightly. Exchanging a glance, they instantly recalled the little boy who looked exactly like Saga and always followed behind him when they were undergoing Shion’s training together in the Sanctuary back then.

No wonder the Sea Dragon Mariner’s Cosmo felt so familiar to them. It turned out to be the companion twin star of Gemini, Saga’s twin brother!

"If it weren’t for the sake of your brother, you would already be a corpse right now."

Although Alex’s voice was flat, it smashed against Kanon’s heart like a heavy hammer.

"Saga..."

Kanon abruptly clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white from the force, and his Cosmo erupted violently.

Endless fury spewed forth from his chest.

’How dare you bring up that man in front of me!’

The surrounding Mariners looked at each other in blank dismay, their faces full of confusion. Who was the Sea Dragon General’s brother? They had never heard Lord Sea Dragon mention it!

Why would Athena’s Saint know his brother?

Poseidon’s gaze darkened slightly, his fingertips rubbing against the ancient patterns on his Golden Trident.

His early awakening had been single-handedly orchestrated by the Sea Dragon Mariner. He had long harbored doubts about the Sea Dragon Mariner’s identity.

It was not yet time for his awakening, so why would a Mariner dare to awaken him without authorization?

Now, hearing Alex’s words, the many points of suspicion instantly connected. However, as the Sea God, Poseidon had long seen through the vicissitudes of the human world. He remained calm and collected, choosing merely to watch from the sidelines.

Kanon gritted his teeth, the line of his lips pulled as taut as a bowstring.
