Seika POV - Indian O - 1984

  I woke up early in the m refreshed in the warm embray lover, Jayr, thinking about my life 'It is strange how much things ged, first living with mom for a few years, then Seiya is born and mom died and we found ourselves into the Star Children Academy, the orphanage of the Graad Foundation, then 4 years ago they separate me from Seiya, and soon after, I find out that they sent him to Greece, and so at the age of 10 I sold everything I held to follow after him, of course, I used the money only to feed myself, I hid in differents cargo ships to reach Greece as a stowaway, ohere I seached information about the Sanctuary the pce where I heard they sent Seiya, but I had problems unig with the others but thanks to some basiglish I uood that they only knew of a touristic p Athens named a such, so I went out of the city hoping to find it there... Then the act happened and I lost my memories'

  My mood was worsening as I remember all the unhappy events of my life, but then I felt Jayr unsciously tightening his hold on me as his finger caress my hair, and I once agaihe usual feeling of ess and prote that he usually projects, it is like nothing in this world hurt me as long as he is o me, and with a smile remembering this st month.

  'Then 4 years ter he came aored my memories, told me about my brother's situation, and how I couldn't meet him at the Sanctuary, and in the end, he proposed to join in his journey... And that robably the best decision of my life, passing time with him I quickly found myself attracted to him, his g side, his kindness, and his willio help others, many times during our journey he stopped to help those that needed medical attention, and he healed them no matter who was it, even a bank robber who few minutes before was threatening a child, sure after healing him, he made sure that the person iion was caught and punished for all his crime by f him to tell only the truth when asked and be uo remain in silence for the rest of his life, befiving him to the police... Then it came the time for our voyage on the sea... And I practically spent all my time with him, eating with him, learning from him, protected by him, having fun with him... And in the end, it happened, after more than oogether, we made love, the spark that was there quickly became a bzing inferno and swallowed us... And now I'm living some of the happiest moments of my life, I don't know how this will end... But all I want now is to enjoy my time with him!'.

  Feeling his hot rock-hard member pressing on my stomach, with a wry smile I think 'The only problem with this blissful life is that Jayr has way too much stamina... Are all Saints like this?' then quickly my thoughts moved to a more serious topic 'Speaking about Saint... Oh Queen Isnd and Andromeda Isnd, for the first time, I saw how much these men and women trained and suffered to bee these formidable protectors... And most of them will never bee a Saint... Just how many hardships have Jayr, Seiya, Shun, Ikki, and the one and are going through just to protect humanity?'.

  As I was ihought, I felt his warm lips kissing my forehead, then I hear his f voice "Good m, love... Why the long face first thing in the m? Did someone bully you? I will deal with him..." and with a sly smile I reply "The only one bullying me is you, it took you only a few days to finish the box of ...".

  Hearing my words, he looked flustered for a few seds before he says "It's true... I did say that I would hold back... Let's do this today I will show you my massage skill... You will feel reborn after my massage!" then he gave me another pey lips ao prepare breakfast, and as he left the a smile appears on my face.

  Jayr POV - India - 1984

  Five days passed since we left Andromeda Isnd, and we finally reached Mumbai's port, after dog, taking care of the usual s, and exging our currencies into Indian rupee, we stood in front of Athena's Bidoof, as Seika ask me as she looks at the pce where we made many happy memories "What are we going to do with it?... I don't want to leave it here...".

  I look at her with a smile, then I move closer to the boat and putting a hand on it, I focus my i and carefully send it to my Soul Bouory, whitil now was only used to grow some rare medial ingredients, and now also as a bootleg Item Box, then I once again turn my head and look at Seika who is looking at me with her eyes wide open, and with a grin on my face I say "Don't worry, I just send it to another dimension ected to me... It is safe and I pull it out at any time!".

  Then we restart our jouroward our destination, Jamir located in the Himaya Mountain Rao reach the Indian Northern Border, we took 3 days and used 3 different trains, and after one day of rest at an inn nearby, where I was almost tortured, as I couldn't do anything with Seika as her period came, so I just focused on taking care of her, the day we once again start our journey.

  Jayr POV - Jamir - 1984

  After 3 days of trekking, I and Seika reach the 8000m tall mountain that stands he border between India and a, we've climbed over 6000m above sea level, the air here is incredibly thin, and Seika is having some trouble breathing, even if I am carrying her in my arms the whole time, then as I'm slowly walking, I feel something out of pd quickly stop 'We have reached the Cloths Cemetery... It is better to put on my Cloth... Remember what you've read... It's is an Illusion, in front of you there is a subtle stone bridge under which there is a ravine full of sharp rocks...'.

  Seeing me suddenly stop she slowly asks "What is going on, Jayr? Why did you stop?", and I gently put her down and open my Pandora Box, and burning my o, I quickly wear my Cloth, while Seika looks at me with a longing gaze muttering "So cool..." but soon recover and starts looking around clearly nervous, as this is the first time she saw me don the Cloth, it means that something dangerous is close, but I quickly reassure her and croug down I says "Don't worry it isn't so dangerous, I only put on my Cloth because, In a few moments I will need my hands free, now, e and climb on my back we are almost there...".

  Once ready, as soon as I take oep forward, a really thick fog es out of nowhere making me see only some indistinct shape of my surroundings, but with a o charged punch, I quickly blow away the fog and notice that everything around us ged and a tless number of bones are now on the ground, seeing this spectacle Seika in a worried tone says "Jayr..." but I quickly reassure her "Do not worry, it is only a trial to gairy... While dangerous for others, for us it isn't a problem".

  Then as I take aep forward many ghostly voices say oer another "Where do you think are going, brat?", "You are about to trespass the territory of the great Mu!", "Nobody gets through here!", "You better get lost, unless you want to die!" and a few flying skulls surround and start cirg us at the same time.

  Keeping my gaze straight ahead is yell "I came here to meet with Aries Mu!" then one of the skulls says "Huh? Does that mean that you are a Saint, like us?" and still calm I reply "Precisely, I'm the Saint of the Crateris Cloth... Jayr!" hearing that the skull starts ughing and another one says "What a treat! How long has it been since we had a Saint e by? Well, it doesn't matter, Saints, doesn't get to pass through here for free!" then all the skull moves and joins to their bodies, while hundreds of Skeleton Warrior still dressed in badly damaged a Cloth appears.

  [colpse]And ohat seems leading them says "If you are looking for Mu his mansion is just up ahead, but only those who are skilled enough to make it past all of us are able to go there, Hyahahaha!", to deal with them, I get ready to use the sed teique I created, burning my o so much that a clear blue aura surrounds my body, and the phantom image of cup appears behind me, I y arms, then yelling "P Rain!", I quickly spread my arm wide, and release massive amounts of clear blue o droplets in every dire at once, almost like heavy rain, that hits everything around me, redug the skeletons around me in bone dust.

  This teique allows me to fire up to a hundred million blows per sed at my oppos, I took as inspiration, Aldebaran and Aio's teiques to create this o bines both their principles but I put my spin on it making it an omnidireal attack good for when you have to deal with a lot of ehe only downside is that it hits everything around me, allies included.

  As soon as all the skeleton warriors were destroyed, the illusion dissipates to reveal the path leading to the tower of Mu, and while walking oone bridge I expin to Seika "Every time a fner arrives, the skeletons gregate to csh against this ohe souls of the dead knights imprisoned in this pce preventing anyone from gaining access to the residenu".

  Then looking down and seeing the sharp rocks below with still impaled skeletons I ti is assumed that all the skeletons were Saints in the service of Athena who, while still alive, damaged their armor during risky bats ao Jamir in the hope of having it repaired by the only being capable of doing so, and if a visitor appears, the souls then rebuild their spoils, gather their remains and rise up, blog his way, the main danger is that the prevailing fog hides this stone bridge under which there is this ravine full of sharp rocks".

  Then calmly tinuing forward "Iy, these a Saints strayed from the path and fell oactites of the ravihey attack their colleague to join them ih, perhaps jealousy has grown i the sight of other reckless, but still alive, Saints venturing down the same path, so they try to dissuade them and gather their skeletons, dressed in the breastptes of their old damaged armor, with the sole purpose of fighting the newer and in turn making him fall down the precipi turn, so that he joins their ranks in this macabre pce, thus enrging a little more the myth of the ghosts of the resting Saint".

  Hearing my story Seika asks "Why all of this just to reach the pce where you repair your Cloths...!?" and shugging my shoulder I reply "Well, this isn't only a test for the Saints, but it is also a barrier to protect the only ones left that know how to repair Cloths and their desdants... It is said that somewhere in this mountain there is a vilge where the st survivors of the Mu ti reside... If you think that this also helps in proteg those i people you somewhat uand why it is needed...".

  After walking for another hour we finally reached our destination, and in the distance, we see a five- or six-story tower, with no ground-level entrance, once I walked closer, I yell "Anyone home?" and soon a dozen of stones fly toward me, but I easily stop them using Telekinesis, aly put them down, then the voice of a kid says "Woah! Usually I'm able to deal with the losers that are able to pass through the Cloth Graveyard...".

  I look in the dire of the void find on top of the tower a boy of short stature, possessing tousled, reddish-colored hair that he keeps down to just past the nape of his neck, due to his training he has developed a slight muscuture for his young age, however, he sometimes give the impression of chubby limbs, he also has two tik dots on his forehead, he is Kiki the disciple of Aries Mu.

  [colpse]Before I could say anything Seika says "That is a rude way of treating a guest who traveled far to see you..." but before she could tinue, I turn to my left and look at the young man that is calmly sitting there, now looking shocked by the fact that I could easily sense him, he is of fine and stylized features, however, they atuate the nobility, tranquility, and elegance of this high-ranking Saint.

  He has green eyes, no eyebrows, and has two tik dots on his forehead like Kiki, long straight and tied faint lic hair that denotes his profile as an artisan and intellectual individual, as a "craftsman", he wears bandages on each of his arms, a kind of brown toga over his shoulders that goes down and is tight around his waist, his clothes are yellow and his pants are dark green, he is Aries Mu.

  Spoiler

  [colpse]Looking at him, with a grin on my face I introduce myself with style "My name is Jayr Pucci. I'm 13 years old. My house is in the northeast se of Sanctuary, where all the Temples of the Gold Zodia be seen, and I am not married. I work as a healer for Athena's Sanctuary, and I get home every day by 8 PM at the test. I don't smoke, but I occasionally drink. I'm in bed by 11 PM and make sure I get six hours of sleep, no matter what. After having a gss of warm milk and doing about twenty minutes of inteorturous exercise befoing to bed, I usually have no problems sleeping until m. Just like a baby, I wake up without any fatigue or stress in the m. I tell you there were no issues at my st check-up. I'm trying to expin that I'm a person who wishes to live a very quiet life. I take care not to trouble myself with any enemies, like winning and losing, that would cause me to lose sleep at night. That is how I deal with society, and I know that is what brings me happiness. Although, if I were to fight I wouldn't lose to anyone."

  What greeted my introdu is absolute sile least for a few seds, as Kiki starts to loudly ugh, while Seika face-palm a out a loud sigh, and Mu looks at me in silence, only blinking his eyes, as if trying to uand if I am some kind of mentally ill patients, and I think 'For sure they aren't Men of Culture... Wait it is 1984... Jojo still isn't out yet!!'.

  Mu POV - Jamir - 1984

  I look in sile the pair in front of me who now looks somewhat embarrassed, the young woman is a normal human, while ohing is clear about the young man, he is strong, not only he was able to quickly sense me, but from the o, I felt when he passed through the Cloth Graveyard, even if he tries to hide it, is clear that he has already awakened his 7th sense and has good mastery over it, in fact from the o I felt he is more or less my equal and that is an amazing achievement, my only advantage over him is my Gold Cloth and the mastery over the teiques that my master taught me.

  I quickly break the awkward situation "I'm Mu the craftsman that revive and repair the Cloth... Why are you here?", and putting down the woman, the young man named Jayr replies "Well... First, o meet you Aries Mu..." the fact that he knows who I really am, makes me immediately raise my guard, 'Is he here uhe order of the Pope?' but before I could think more, he notices my state, and expins "... Don't worry, it is was Aldebaran who told me your identity, I'm not here uhe order of the Fake Pope... But one of the reasons I'm here is to talk about him".

  'He calls him the Fake Pope... so my suspis were right! Master Shion was killed and someone else took his pce! But it is still too soon to lower my guard around him...' Still ready to act at any hint of aggression I say "Go on..." still aware of my cautious state, Jayr removes his Cloth and turns it bato its steltion Form, and I quickly notice that while in somewhat good dition, the Cloth itself is old and many minuscule cracks are on it, 'The o on that Cloth is feeble like it was awakened after a long sleep, in that state in 't dispy even 1/4 of its usual power'.

  Then my focus turn back to Jayr as he speak once again, and start telling me his story, about how the ohat killed Master Shion was Gemini Saga, that was corrupted by an evil influence, as this is Hades' scheme to weaken Athena's forces before the start of the Holy War, and how he found out about this thanks to the abilities of his Cloth, and how he is going around the world now, helping and gathering the support of various Saint, in his pn to help Athena and save Saga by getting rid of the evil influence.

  As his story end, it leaves me ihought 'If what he said is true, then if we do nothing, when the Holy War will happen in 2-3 years, Athena will only have a handful of Saint to fight Hades's army...' turniremely serious I ask "Who knows about this?" and Jayr replies "Among the Gold Saints that I trust... Aldebaran, Aiolia, Milo, you, and I think Shaka, but I have never ied with him, but from some of his as that I saw from the visions it seems that he knows everything, but didn't act because of some strange reason or idea, I truly don't uand what it goest through his mind... Then there is Guilty from Death Queen Isnd which was under Saga's trol, but I freed him, and Daidalos from Andromeda Isnd, which was already suspicious... And I pn to talk to Master Dohko and Camus...".

  Hearing that I nods, then asks "So what do you require of me?" and Jayr replies "Well teically, the way you acted in the inal timeline is fine... You supported the Bronze Saints that were following Athena, repairing their Cloth, warning them about the dangers, and telling them what they ck... In fact, your assistance was essential for their growth... So you just have to be yourself maybe just train a little harder to get stronger for the ing fight, the main reason I came here, is to have you check my Cloth, and to ask if you teach me how to ched repair my Cloth?".

  Once again I look at him in the eyes and feel no greed for my art, but more of a need, so I ask "Repairing Cloths is an almost lost art, not only is very hard to learn but requires great sacrifices! Why do you want to learn my art?" and scratg his cheek Jayr replies "I'm a healer... A doctor, the Cloth in some way are living beings... And the first thing I was taught about them is that they have their own will... I feel like I'm ing my partner if I'm uo take care of it, or at least know if something is wrong with it... And don't worry about the difficulties of learning... I may not look like it but I'm a good schor!".

  Feeling that his iions are pure enough I nod and say "Very well... I will teach you, but it will be up to you how much you will learn... Now, let's look at your Cloth" and as I walk toward it, I yell "Kiki... e here! It is about time that you too learn about this!" and telep o me Kiki says "Yes, Lord Mu!".

  As I look over his Cloth, I start expining "Generally the Pandora Box is able to restore in some way, any damage doo the Cloth, but if it was too heavily damaged, even if it does appears restored, many invisible microscopic cracks remain on the Cloth, in medical terms it is like a bone fracture that didn't recover well, so the first thing you have to do I use your o as a lens to see these cracks... Ahing that you should take note of is that Cloth as living beings indeed also die, but luckily there is also a way t them back to life, I will expin this ter...".

  After taking note of every cra the Crateris Cloth, I use my telekinesis t to me my tools and the necessary ingredient showing them to Kiki and Jayr "To restore, or even revive a Cloth you need fredients, Stardust Sand, a type of metallid found in a pce where gods lived for a lot of time abs their Divine o, Gammanium, an alloy metal that only the Muvian, the desdant of the habitant of the Mu ti, know how to produce, Orichalcum, one of the hardest metal in our world, and st the blood of a person parable to a Saint".

  Then I show them the golden tools o restore a Cloth "These are the tools you o restore them, Pointer, it carves the surface of the armor, in this case, reag the areas where the rest of the tools do not reach, it is used in delicate aailed works, Chisel, it removes unnecessary elements from the surface to be worked on before starting the carving, Long Needle, used to shape the areas that require unduting or cavity carving, and Hammer, it produces the necessary force to hahe instruments, without the hammer and the force with which they are hit they would be useless... While their form is basid simple, you shouldn't uimate them, they are made of the same material as the Cloths, the only difference is that the blood used is the Ichor of Athena herself...".

  Just as I was about to pour the Saints Blood on the Crateris Cloth to repair it, Jayr stops me and says "Wait Mu! I'd like to restore my partner myself... I feel it is something I have to do... So could you teach me how to do it and watch over my process when I do so?" I look at him and ask "Are you sure? It could take you years to be able to do so..." but in a resolute gaze he replies with absolute vi "It will take years to master to your level... but to learn it... I will only need some months!" and with a smile, I reply "Very well, let me see how much you learn in a few months".

  Jayr POV - Jamir - 1984

  Four months passed since me and Seika came to Jamir, I spent all my time learning from Mu the art of repairing Cloths with Kiki, training my mastery over the 7th sense, sparring with Mu, helping Mu train Kiki as a Saint, and I got to admit that brat does have talent, he is only 6 and he is already has a o as strong as a peak Bronze Saint, not only that but he got good trol over his telekinesis, and teleportation, a teique that I too picked up while teag him 'Really, o is broken you do almost anything with it...', I also spent my free time with Seika, enjoying the peacefulness of this pce.

  And now, I'm standing in front of my Cloth, ready to restore it, with Mu and Kiki watg over the process, first thing I pour the Saint Blood over the Cloth, my Saint Blood, after all, I'm parable to a Gold Saint in strength it should have a better effect, then take the golden hammer and chisel and start removing the excess filth that mixed with Cloth while regeing itself, then I pour the mix of Stardust Sand, Gammanium and Orichalcum, and slowly and carefully using the various tool I fix all the invisible cracks, while at the same time through the tools I pour my o into the Cloth that greedily absorbs everything.

  After 2 hours of careful work, finally, the st crack is repaired, and as soon as I'm done, a powerful, eid lively es out of the Crateris Cloth, as a gold shine flicker over it, while I feel my e to it strohan ever, and for the first time I feel that my Cloth is really alive, in fact, a vague feeling of happiness and gratefulness es from it, before without my ad the Cloth dissasembe itself, and quickly equip itself on my body, making me quickly feel the ges, not only now it's durability is almost parable to a Gold Cloth, but a brand new awareness over es from it, in fact right at this moment the Cloth is teag me one of the teiques of its previous wielder.

  After a few minutes, Mu's voice broke me out of my reprieve "You excelled my every expectation, Jayr! Not only you learned how to repair Cloths, but you were also able to improve and truly awaken yours from its slumber, from what I feel right now the Crateris Cloth is parable to a Gold one while still being a Silver one... While some of the merits e from the fact that you used your own blood... This result is indeed amazing! It is almost a miracle! gratution!".
