The sphere of energy had fully dissipated after integrating with Koga and the others. They tried to summon all of their will power and cosmos in order to show Sapphire and everyone how they have grown. For Koga, his cosmos was pure white in color (he cannot invoke the cosmos of Abzu at will). Aquila’s had a bluish green color. Souma’s has a fiery red color. Eden’s contain a monstrous purple color. Ryuho’s cosmos contain a calm yet ferocious blue color. Haruto’s contain a grayish black cosmos full of mystery.
Awakening the 7<sup>th</sup> sense forcibly had some side effects to the newest generation of young Saints as they are still not used to their new found powers. They would have to train hard in the next couple of weeks in order to get used to it. Fortunately, they still have at least a year’s duration to get stronger (or so they thought).
The Hero Avan made his way to the top most part of Sanctuary where Athena Sapphire was standing, bathed in Gold light. They spoke with each other in their consciousness (same with a voice transmission using Ki/Chi, Cosmos used by Saints or mental telepathy used by ESPers). “I’ll get to work in setting up the Minakatoru in layers. For your newly awakened Deity/God powers, you should be able to handle 5 layers” said Avan. Afterwards, he began to setup 5 layers of the Hero Star using Orichalcum and other precious materials. A look of ease could be seen on Sapphire’s beautiful face after the 5<sup>th</sup> layer was finished.
Meanwhile, back in the graveyard, Kuro was being guided by the Yin-Yang Sagitarrius Cloth (YYSC) in awakening his 7<sup>th</sup> sense.
“You have the innate talent of a Gold Saint and you have already progressed so much” uttered the consciousness of the YYSC.
“In just a week, you were able to defeat these zombies, pushing your level to 20.”
“Indeed, you have the same tenacity and willpower as Aiolos back then and you won’t experience any bottlenecks during the breakthrough of your cosmos” said the consciousness.
“With my aid, you will get stronger and one day you can enact your revenge using your own hands!”
“Raaaaaa!!!” with a loud shout, Kuro was able to condense his cosmos of dark and gold, shaping an aura of Yin and Yang (similar to an avatar) on his back. It took him only a week to reach the 7<sup>th</sup> sense without the aid of others.
A notification rang in Kuro’s consciousness.
“Cosmos Level, Initial Stage of the 7<sup>th</sup> Sense!”
“At last, 7<sup>th</sup> Sense!”
With a thought, Kuro focused his left eye this time, and it turned into scarlet black. He was able to see his stats easily.

“At last, I am now at the Silver Saint Level and I can now leave this damned graveyard!”.
“You can now wear the YYSC at will. You just have to channel your cosmos and indicate in your consciousness that you want to equip the YYSC.”
With his eyes filled with determination, Kuro willed the YYSC to be donned in his mind.
“Ding! Yin Yang Sagittarius Cloth fully equipped!”

“Since you have fully equipped the YYSC, additional stats have been added to you due to your ‘title’” said the YYSC.
“Let me teach you a little about titles.”
“Saints of Athena usually have 3 or 4 titles which were either bestowed during birth or earned during the course of life.”
“If you have not earned a title, you can view it as ??????.”
“It seems that upon awakening your cosmos to 7<sup>th</sup> sense, you were granted a chance to earn a new one.”
“Let’s take for example your title ‘Seiya’s Nephew.’ Since you have this title, when you fully donned the YYSC, you were granted an additional 20% increase in your stats.”
“This is on top of the 20% bonus stats provided by your other title ‘The Revenger’.”
“Hence, more titles, more bonuses. But be careful, some titles can provide you a minus in stats instead of a plus.”
With a nod, Kuro indicated that he understood the words of the YYSC in his mind. He then looked into the far distance as he still saw numerous undead.
"I''ll clear my way out of here then!" he muttered.
