It is said that every several hundred years,

the goddess Athena is reincarnated.

And now a new Athena has been born into this world,

but, this time, under a dark prophecy that she will lead mankind to ruin.

The warriors who protected the goddess Athena were known as Knights.

Today, a new generation of Knights control the fate of the world.

They are called the Knights of the Zodiac.

Previously on Saint Seiya...

Find him, whoever, wherever he is!

Aurora Execution!

Farewell, Magnus.

Sleep for eternity.

Long!

-You want to know if Long is all right. -

The two of you grew up together.

It's not surprising that you're concerned about him.

I had a bad dream.

Long was being tortured and killed.

What's happened to him?

Long is about to face the Gold Cancer Knight...

Deathmask.

The one who tried to kill you?

Even you struggled to hold him back.

How will Long be strong enough to defeat him?

Strength and weakness, victory and defeat,

these things have nothing to do with the flow of nature.

Do not worry, Shunrei.

I am confident Long will overcome this challenge.

I hope so, too.

Seiya, can you see the clock?

The third flame is burned out.

Which means we only have nine hours

to get to the Grand Master and save Sienna.

We can do it!

We can beat all the Gold Knights

if we join our minds and strengths together.

You'll be okay, Milady.

Your Bronze Knights will succeed soon...

I hope.

We've made it to the House of Cancer.

Long, is something wrong?

I sense something strange surrounding us.

You can't feel it, Seiya?

Huh?

I'm not sure, but I feel a chill.

Ooh, scary.

Come on, Long. Don't get all weird on me.

There's absolutely nothing to be afraid of.

Smells like death in here.

I take it back.

There's absolutely everything to be afraid of.

This place is wall-to-wall creepy.

Wait. I just stepped on something weird.

What is it?

What the hell?

It's a face, a human face!

And not just one.

Gold Knights are supposed to be honorable and respected.

Who the hell is guarding this place?

That would be me.

Do you like them?

They are my victims,

their souls condemned to wander in eternal torment.

Do you hear the moaning of the lost souls?

How pleasant that sounds.

I keep them as proof of my power and victories.

That is why they call me Deathmask.

What sick, twisted mind would keep people's faces as trophies?!

You monster.

What is it, Seiya?

There are children on the wall!

You're not saying you killed these children, are you?!

Collateral damage happens in every war.

Those were human lives!

How can you be so cold?!

Bronze Knights, so immature.

A Gold Knight fights for justice, not to take innocent lives.

You don't deserve to be a Gold Knight.

Funny. That's exactly what Dohko said

right before I attacked him.

What did you do to my master?

It's about time someone put that feeble old man out of his misery.

Dragon,

your righteous face grates on my nerves,

just like your decrepit master.

I am going to enjoy adding you to my collection.

That's not happening, crab face!

No, Seiya!

Long, why?

I don't mind him insulting me,

but I can't forgive him for demeaning my master.

But, Long...

Let me take him on, Seiya.

Okay, Long. I trust you.

Where do you think you're going?

He's all yours!

Deathmask...

Dragon.

I swear on the good name of all Knights that I'll defeat you

and free all these innocent souls.

You're wasting your time.

Hmm. I think I found the perfect spot for your face.

My soul mist is the portal

through which the souls of dead rise to the heavens.

It's time you get a taste.

I was going to use this on your master,

so it seems fitting that I should use it on Dohko's favorite disciple

to send you to the land of the dead.

Praesepe Underworld Strangulation!

Huh? Wh-What is this?

Lovely.

Huh?

My eyes.

I can see.

Where am I?

This place looks familiar.

I've been here before.

When my heart stopped beating for a minute at the Galaxian Wars tournament.

What is that?

The land of the dead.

I have to get out of here and get back to the House of Cancer.

Magnus.

Magnus!

Magnus!

Magnus, wait!

-Long... -Huh?

you must turn away.

Sienna?

They are heading for the hell-mouth, from which there is no return.

I can guide you back with my Cosmo.

What about Magnus? What about you?

Don't worry about us.

But you must hurry.

Return to the House of Cancer at once.

Huh?

Impossible.

How?

You've come back to life?

I don't know how you escaped, but it was all for nothing.

I'll send you straight back to hell!

Been there, done that twice.

I guess death doesn't want me.

Now it's your turn to die.

Lúshan Shenglóng bà!

What?

I ignited my Cosmo to the max, and it didn't even hit him.

I already told you.

There's a world of difference between Gold and Bronze Knights.

Even if you could raise your Cosmo to my level,

my Armor would protect me from all of your attacks.

That drooling old fool trained you well.

Pity it was all for nothing.

You insult my master once again.

I'm sending you back to the land of the dead,

and this time, it's a one-way ticket.

Praesepe Underworld Strangulation!

Damn it!

Is Long dead?

It's too late.

No! Long is still alive.

I feel it.

What do you think you are doing, Shunrei?

It's faint, but I can reach him

and bring him back to life.

Be careful. The darkness of death is like a maelstrom.

One mustn't get too close to the edge, or they could lose their footing.

I don't care. I'll give up my life if I have to,

if that's what it takes to save Long!

Master Mu, I told you

that the Bronze Knights would never make it through the 12 Houses.

Cygnus was defeated,

and Andromeda Shaun barely made it through the House of Gemini.

Huh?

Hey, what did you just say about Andromeda Shaun?

Who's that?

Silver Knight Eagle Marin.

And you must be Bronze Knight Chameleon Genet.

Then that must mean that Cepheus Daedalus is...

By the time I reached him, it was already too late.

Too late here as well.

So what is your purpose in coming here?

Before Master Daedalus was killed, he said, "Go to Star Hill."

Star Hill? That place is forbidden to all, save the Grand Master.

No one is allowed to even approach Star Hill.

Yet that is why we came here.

Gold Knight Mu, Gold Knight Aldebaran,

we ask that you lend us your strength.

Madness! A Silver Knight should know her place.

Master Mu, I was told that you were trained by the Grand Master

alongside my Master Daedalus.

Master Daedalus taught me to value our sense of justice above all else

and to follow that sense in our actions.

Please, I can feel it.

If we're going to stay on the right path, then we need to go to Star Hill.

Andromeda Shaun is risking her life in battle right now.

As a Knight, I want to do the same.

Hmph!

The enthusiasm of young Knights is always surprising, isn't it, Aldebaran?

Mu...

you're not actually considering going--

Daedalus possessed extraordinary skills as an artisan.

If he discovered a clue,

then it could be the key to solving the recent mystery surrounding Sanctuary.

Very well,

However, approaching Star Hill is not easy,

even for Gold Knights.

I cannot guarantee that you will survive the journey.

Th-Thank you.

Kiki, stay here, and keep me apprised of the situation.

Aww! You're leaving me to baby-sit again?

But I could help you!

I'd definitely be more use than that Bronze Knight over there.

What did you say?

Ehh!

When I get my hands on you, you are dead!

You get back here...

We have little time.

Let us hurry.

No! You stop it...

I thought this new batch of Knights had no spine,

but I suppose I was mistaken.

I look forward to seeing what they can do.

-Ow! -As do I.

That is why we must show them the path.

Hey, wait up!

Ehh!

We are on the verge of major upheaval.

I can't do it.

Why can't I do it?!

No need to be so upset, young man.

Ever since you arrived here,

you've lived inside a shell, never listening.

What are you talking about?

I've always listened so that I can become strong.

Such immaturity.

I'm not listening?

I've always done everything you told me to!

Damn it. What's wrong with wanting to be strong?

It's his fault.

He doesn't teach me anything.

Long.

Huh? Shunrei?

Go away. I'm trying to think.

You don't have to be so mean.

Maybe we can think together.

What?

Now you see me.

Leave me alone. I don't need you around.

You don't understand what it's like to be alone.

I understand.

I was abandoned here when I was a baby.

Huh?

Master Dohko raised me.

So you're an orphan...

like me.

Come on. I want to show you something.

Everything looks so beautiful from here, don't you think?

It's my secret spot.

So what made you want to come here and become strong?

I'll get to do anything I want if I become strong.

Would that make you happy?

Huh?

You, Master Dohko, and I are here together,

but you're not happy yet?

Well, happy?

I'm happy that I'm with you and Master Dohko.

I don't feel alone anymore.

Look.

I'm really glad that you came here.

Me, too, Shunrei.

It gets lonely up here sometimes.

Well, now we can be lonely together.

Something seems different about you, Long.

Long, please be safe.

Long, please be safe.

Please be safe.

- -Please be safe.

- -Please be safe.

Shunrei?

Please be safe.

-What is this? -Please be safe.

-No, it can't be. -Please be safe.

Don't tell me that Long is going to return from the land of the dead again.

I'll just have to hurl him into the hell-mouth myself.

Deathmask?

How are you here?

This is my turf. I come and go as I please.

Now get up.

I'll drag you to hell with my own hands if that's what it takes.

Look! This time, you can't wander out again.

I am going to hurl you into the hell-mouth,

where all lost souls end up once and for all!

No one can return from it! Not even me.

The hell-mouth.

So this is the end.

It's over, Dragon.

Long, please be safe.

-Shunrei, is that you? -Long, please be safe.

Are you praying at the waterfall?

-That irritating voice... -Please be safe.

where is it coming from?

Found you.

So she's the one who's been annoying me.

Wh-What's happening to me?

No. No.

She must have really loved you for her prayer to reach this far.

Don't worry. You'll soon be reunited...

in hell!

My hand, it's burning!

Deathmask...

you hurt the only person I've ever loved.

I will show you no mercy!
