I Will Be the Son of Man

——A flawless soul, a pure way of being.

He could see through the child's essence at a glance.

Because Hephaestus is a god who builds tools, Hephaestus also has a very deep understanding of the creation of "human beings".

Of course, the emotional side of human nature is another matter.

Because craftsmen can only understand the soul of "ware", but there is no way to understand the heart of "ware".

With the "artifact" of the heart, it is no longer an "artifact".

Concentrating his thoughts, Hephaestus picked up the hammer again. He glanced left and right at some of the magical materials he had left, collected them together, and threw them into the smelting furnace in one go.

Soon, with the power of power and the temperature of the volcano itself, he put a piece of fiery red iron on the forging platform.

Just a little, seriously...

Hephaestus swung his hammer, and immediately, the continuous "dang dang" sound began to resound in the empty palace.

Chapter 010: Blessing

In order to fulfill the agreement, the lives of Hill and Atalanta have undergone some changes since that day.

Every day, beginning in the morning, Atalanta taught Hill the art of archery.

Although he didn't want Hill to pass the final assessment, Atalanta was not ambiguous when giving the course, and taught his younger brother everything he understood as much as possible.

Of course, sometimes, she will also make mistakes due to some force majeure factors.

After all, it is to teach archery from scratch, so the first thing that needs to be corrected is the posture of Xiera's bow and nocking the arrow.

In this case, there will inevitably be some physical contact.

Fortunately, Atalanta has become more mature in terms of self-control as she grows older. For some "distracting thoughts" in her heart, she can often temporarily suppress them for the first time and adjust her mentality of being a sister.

However, the problem of mentality is secondary. What makes Atalanta both gratified and worried is that under the practice day by day, Hill's shooting skills are growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

If things go on like this, I'm afraid it won't be long before the other party may really surpass him.

Compared to Atalanta's "worries", Artemis, who occasionally visited the two, found something strange about Hill.

You must know that although Hill possesses divinity, he is not a god in essence, and is still in the category of "human".

And as a "person", in the state where almost a year has passed, he should grow up to some extent.

But time seemed to stand still on Hill's body at a certain moment. Although his body had grown taller than when he just woke up, his face was only a little more handsome than that of a beautiful boy, and he still had a bit of righteousness. .

All growth seems to have been deliberately stopped on him.

From Hill's body, he felt a subtle and familiar atmosphere different from his own blessing, and Artemis had a rough guess in his heart, and decided to verify his thoughts.

******

The sound of gurgling water reverberates in the main hall. Outside the wide view, there are carefully repaired gardens and several specially cultivated myrtle trees.

In the nearly semi-open-air palace, there are colorful and exquisite decorations and rare treasures in the world. It can be seen that the owner of the palace is an existence who knows how to enjoy life.

In the depths of the hall, within the bedroom.

A goddess opened her sleepy eyes, sat up from the bed, and stretched gracefully, revealing her perfect curves.

She has long orange-red hair, a face that interprets the meaning of beauty, and a figure with a golden ratio. She is only wearing a thin shirt at the moment. Involuntary self-restraint.

Her name is Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, and also the embodiment of love and beauty.

Stepping on the floor with her bare feet, Aphrodite stretched her body again, and a pair of four-winged crimson wings suddenly appeared behind her, representing that she was fully awake.

As if sensing something, Aphrodite glanced at the door of her bedroom, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

Sure enough, at the next moment, a stream of silver light descended directly from the periphery of the palace into her bedroom.

"This is really a rare guest, what can I do for you, Artemis?"

Seeing the imposing Artemis appearing in front of her, Aphrodite sat on the bed, her slender and white legs folded up and down, showing a posture of two legs, and her crystal and lovely toes moved slightly in the air , She didn't seem to care much about Artemis' appearance of "excusing the teacher".

"Aphrodite, did you tamper with that child?"

As if he was used to the other party's attitude, Artemis didn't bother with this, but asked about the business.

"Which child is that child? I don't understand what you're talking about, Artemis."

Aphrodite casually took a cherry-shaped divine fruit from a fruit plate, pinched the fruit stem with two fingers, licked the fruit with her tender tongue, and then swallowed it slowly. I don't know why it makes people feel a little pure.

"Don't play dumb, Aphrodite, you know what I'm talking about? Tell me quickly, what did you do to that child?"

Seeing that Artemis seemed to be really angry, Aphrodite sighed helplessly and spread her hands.

"Don't be so nervous, Artemis. I just gave that child a little blessing of [maintaining youth]."

"Originally, that fellow Apollo came to me and said a bunch of inexplicable things like 'Zhengtai is the best, beautiful boy Sai Gao'."

"After thinking about it, I found it quite interesting, so I just blessed that child."

"It's just... like that?"

Some didn't quite believe Aphrodite's words, but Artemis couldn't understand it when he thought that his [brother] Apollo had come to ask for it first.

"Of course, otherwise you would think so, Artemis."

"You know, although I am a god of beauty, I am also a god of love."

"I love humans, but I don't want to 'raise' them in the name of 'love', because wouldn't that be too boring?"

"Besides, although I am quite optimistic about that child, I am more looking forward to the possibility of that child. In this way, can you understand, Artemis?"

Aphrodite stood up and walked to Artemis' side.

She stretched out her hand, as if she wanted to touch the face of the pure hunting goddess in front of her, but Artemis took a step back and avoided it.

"In other words, you won't take action on that child, will you, Aphrodite?"

Asked again, after all, Artemis knew that it was more troublesome for the child to be targeted by this incarnation of beauty and love than to be targeted by his [brother] Apollo.

"Of course, Artemis, I assure you."

Aphrodite smiled and said a brief "oath", which reassured Artemis a little, and she did not choose to pursue it further.

Watching the silver-haired goddess leave, the corners of Aphrodite's mouth rose slightly, and a smile appeared in her eyes.

It was indeed because of Apollo's request that she gave the child the blessing of "keep youth".

But she didn't tell Artemis that she could determine the position of any being blessed by her through perception.

Similarly, her guarantee is only for "now".

"Some things take time to settle, my naive Artemis."

"And what kind of taste will the colorless wine turn into in the end, no matter what, it's exciting to think about it..."

Licking her bright red lips, Aphrodite seemed to be staring at something, her eyes slightly filled with anticipation and fascination.

Chapter 011: Premonition of Journey (23/n)

Plans are always beautiful, but change is always realistic.

Originally thinking that even if Hill's archery skills could surpass her in the future, Atalanta was also confident that she could surpass her opponent in terms of foot strength.

But it turns out...

Lose, lose!I actually lost...

Atalanta looked at the sky in disbelief, feeling that this world suddenly seemed unbelievable.

Since Hill had already surpassed her in archery half a year ago, just now, Atalanta took out her last "killer weapon" to "block" the opponent from leaving, and used her best racing to come It's a showdown.

But what surprised Atalanta was that Hill, who had never received running training, passed her in the first race, which made Atalante feel complicated for a while.

Because from the point of view of the agreement, Hill has fulfilled the conditions he set at the beginning, that is to say, if the other party wants to embark on a journey, he has no reason to stop him.

Atalanta felt that she was a little irritable. She adjusted her state and felt that the opponent must have "luckily" won that time just because she underestimated the enemy.

"Hill, let's compete again, the one just now doesn't count."

"I see, sister."

There was no objection, Hill just nodded. After all, for Hill, it was just "running again".

"Hmph... this time, I won't let you win so easily..."

(③42967465)

In terms of archery, she has already been compared by the opponent, and Atalanta knows that if this continues, her majesty as a sister may really cease to exist.

So, this time, Atalanta used her full strength, and she even felt that her speed was much faster than before.

Like green lightning sprinting through the forest, Atalanta could feel the whistling sound blowing past her ears. Until now, she hadn't seen Hill chasing him, which made her involuntarily raise the corners of her lips. .

But in the next second, the smile on Atalanta's face froze.

Accompanied by the sound of a sonic boom tearing apart a barrier, she only saw something "swish" and "fly" past her.

When she came back to her senses, she realized that Hill had arrived in front of her before she knew it.

Once again, Atalanta lost the match.

"Ju, I lost again... No, let's compete again!"

"Oh."
