She could only watch helplessly as Ziming, whom she regarded as her children, and this kingdom, died little by little under the curse.

Nuoyan walked alone in this kingdom. He looked at this broken country and the suffering patients on the road. He walked for a long time until the sky darkened and a white-haired old woman holding a lamp stood in front of Nuoyan.

The old woman stood in front of Nuoyan with a white cloth covering her eyes.

She said in a hoarse voice: "The breath of a stranger, and... child, where are you from and why are you here?"

Who is the most terrifying person in ancient Greece?

Nuoyan can tell you responsibly that it is the elderly, children and women!

Especially the elderly, because no one can be sure whether the old man who suddenly stopped you is a disguised god!

But...

Nuoyan looked at the old woman who suddenly stopped him with some doubts. After thinking for a while, he answered: "I am from the Kingdom of Iolcus. A goddess showed me the direction and let me come here?"

"Goddess?"

Facing the calm question of the old woman, Nuoyan already had the answer in his heart.

This person is definitely another god.

And because he has seen three gods, Nuoyan, who has experience, can actually roughly distinguish them.

But he still has some doubts in his heart. He doesn't know whether Athena knows, or...she knows, so she let him come here like this?

"Goddess of wisdom, Goddess Athena." But in short, when he was roughly sure of the other party's identity in his heart, Nuoyan answered very straightforwardly.

After hearing this, the old woman was silent for a while, and then continued to ask: "Why did she let you come here?"

"To help the people of this kingdom and lift the curse."

"Then do you know who cast the curse on the people of this kingdom?"

"Yes." Nuoyan nodded, "Honorable Queen Hera!"

Nuoyan naturally knew.

Not to mention that during the half-month of camping in the open air, Nuoyan had already inquired about the Aegina Kingdom.

In fact, when Athena said that the destination was Aegina, Nuoyan had already recalled the story of this tragic goddess.

After all, before using the Heroic Spirit Class Card, Nuoyan had prepared well and made up for various legends.

"If that's the case, why did you come here?" The old woman still said in a hoarse voice: "The believer of Queen Hera."

"I have just answered this question."

Nuoyan smiled and said: "To help the people of this kingdom and lift the curse."

Maybe because Nuoyan answered too easily, the old woman couldn't help but be silent for a while.

But probably thinking that this was Athena's arrangement, she soon felt relieved.

She didn't say anything else and turned to leave.

Nuoyan looked at her back as she left, hesitating whether to follow her, but saw her suddenly stop in front of him.

Seeing this, Nuoyan naturally understood and followed her.

All the way to a mud house, the old woman lit the lamp, and then took out a scale from somewhere and put it on the table.

After motioning Nuoyan to sit down, she took out some fruits and put them in front of Nuoyan.

"Aren't you afraid of offending the Queen of Heaven because of this?"

Nuoyan took a fruit and didn't eat it, and replied: "No."

As soon as he finished speaking, the scale on the table tilted a little.

Nuoyan blinked at this.

"Oh?" At the same time, the old woman's voice was obviously a little more interested, and she asked Nuoyan: "Is it because you are her believer and she spoils you?"

Nuoyan looked at the deity who probably felt exposed but still maintained the image of an old woman, shook his head and said: "No."

The scale was still tilted and did not return to its original state.

Nuoyan saw this and realized that it should be measuring lies and truth...

It seems that there are not many gods related to the scale in ancient Greece, and I remember the most famous one...

Wait, with his eyes covered with white cloth and holding the scale...

In an instant, Nuoyan's eyes widened.

The fruit that was originally prepared to be sent to his mouth subconsciously stopped.

He put it down honestly and his body straightened instantly.

"If it's not, why are you not afraid?" The old woman's voice at this moment was obviously a little curious, and even the hoarse voice disappeared and became cold.

"The reason I'm not afraid is that on the way here, I have already thought of a way..."

The scale shook.

What Nuoyan said was the truth, but it was not complete.

After all, you can't just say it directly, because you are not afraid of death.

"Oh, do you have a way to remove the curse?" The old woman asked with interest.

Nuoyan shook his head and nodded.

Seeing that she didn't respond, he had to continue: "I have no way to remove the curse... To be precise, even if there is a way, I can't do it.

Because this is the curse of the Queen of Heaven, even if it can be solved, it can't be solved.

There is only one person who can solve it, and that is herself!"

She nodded and continued: "You are worthy of being the child that Athena has chosen... I actually heard about you from her, so I also know what happened between you and Hera, but I didn't expect Athena to let you come here.

And..."

She suddenly fell silent when she said this.

After a while, she spoke again and asked Nuoyan a very strange question, "What kind of goddess do you think Hera is?"

"What kind of goddess, um... noble?"

The scales shook again, and she didn't speak, just standing quietly in front of Nuoyan.

"I think she should be a gentle and kind goddess. After all, even my teacher Chiron said so." Nuoyan thought about it and answered again.

Hearing this, she seemed to have a smile on her face this time.

The next second in this wooden house, I saw that the light flashed, she took off her disguise, and her graceful figure was covered with the white robe, sitting in front of Nuoyan.

"She involved so many lives in her momentary anger. Seeing this scene, do you still think she is a gentle and kind goddess?"

When this cold voice fell, looking at her who took off her disguise in front of her.

Nuoyan could only show a helpless smile on his face, and raised his hand and said: "I'm sorry I can't answer this question, respected goddess of justice - Themis!"

Chapter 19 Does Hera know? She doesn't know.

Themis, the goddess of justice,

She is not one of the twelve main gods of Olympus, but she has an extremely noble status among the gods, even second only to the queen of heaven Hera and the king of gods Zeus.

Because she is the creator and guardian of order.

She often appears in the world in a white robe, holding a scale in her left hand and a sword in her right hand, listening meticulously and making indisputable judgments.

The white cloth covering her eyes does not mean that Themis can't see, but that day when all humans and gods needed one person to stand up, she chose to stand up and covered her eyes with the white cloth.

It means that she will never be induced and will always make the most fair judgment.

So Themis rarely laughs. To be precise, even the gods don't remember whether she has ever laughed in those long years.

She represents absolute justice, and is always so meticulous and impartial.

Only the beauty mole at the corner of her mouth adds a bit of charm to her ruthless appearance.

Therefore, at this moment, if the gods... even Athena is here, they will definitely be very surprised.

Because in this small mud house, at the dark night table lit by dim lights, she showed her true face in front of Nuoyan, and a faint smile appeared on her face.

"The last question."

The cold voice without any emotion sounded again.

Themis quietly "looked" at the boy in front of her.

She was covered with a white cloth, and although she could not see the boy's appearance, it was just like Clotho, the goddess of fate who controls the future, could not see the present, but could see the future.

Although Themis could not see, she could see more because of this.

"What idea do you have to come here and stand in front of a god."

"What idea?" Nuoyan was slightly stunned.

"Wealth, glory, life..." Themis said coldly: "What makes you know that this matter will anger the gods, and you may even die in the hands of the gods, but you still choose to stand in front of the goddess.

And that goddess is Hera, the queen of heaven you believe in."

When Themis finished speaking, Nuoyan did not notice that the scale on the table was shaking even more violently.

I don't know when the scale has been shaking gently, and it has never stopped.

Nuoyan subconsciously thought that it was judging whether he was lying, but he forgot one thing. Lies are useless to gods. Even if Athena tied a strand of her silver hair on his wrist, it only prevented the gods from peeking into Nuoyan's heart.

Except for her Athena.

And this is the scale of the goddess of justice Themis, a symbol of absolute fairness and justice. What it measures is everything in the world!

"To be a hero, for glory." Nuoyan answered subconsciously.

Themis did not comment on this answer. She waited quietly, and the swaying scales also had no results.

So Nuoyan was silent for a while.

Finally, he raised his head hesitantly, looked at Themis in front of him, hesitated for a while, and answered uncertainly: "I seem to... never thought about this question at all?"

The goddess of wisdom pointed out the direction for him, telling him that this was the way to become a hero and spread his reputation, so Nuoyan came here.

Halfway through, when he realized what was going on, Nuoyan had been thinking only about how to make Hera willing to lift the curse, that's all.

And for such an answer, the swaying scales had a result, so it stopped.

So Themis smiled again, although the smile was fleeting.

She stood up, raised the scales in her left hand, and turned away under Nuoyan's puzzled gaze, leaving only the last words: "Then you go to save this kingdom, and I will be by your side to witness your trial."

After that, Themis, holding the scales, pushed the door and disappeared into the night.

Late at night, Nuoyan walked out of the room.

To be honest, Nuoyan was a little confused about Themis and didn't know what she was thinking, but then Nuoyan thought about it carefully and found that there was no need to understand.

After all, his goal was very clear, that is, to let Hera lift the curse of this kingdom.

Even if there is one more special audience, and the audience is a god, it will not change anything, and it is even very likely to add one more legendary deed to the Heroic Spirit Class Card.

Add more points.

So Nuoyan simply stopped thinking about it, and you gods can do whatever you want.

After all, she is a goddess of justice, not some two-way plug.

So after relaxing, Nuoyan simply took advantage of the night and came to the tower where Aegina lived in this kingdom.

Everyone in the kingdom knows that their goddess Aegina lives in the tower, but there is no one guarding around.

Because there is a plague here that is like the god of death waving his sickle non-stop, appearing as green gas, surrounding the tower.

They seem to have intelligence and will attack any living creature that comes here.

But because of this, when Nuoyan approaches, they honestly disperse and make way for Nuoyan.

After all, Nuoyan had the aura of the goddess, Hera...

So Nuoyan walked into the place that stopped everyone easily, and followed the lights to the tower.
