Because of the curse of fate, Lachesis, who is responsible for determining the length of the lifeline, is not like a goddess. She is so weak that she will faint on the spot if she says more than a few words.
But she still couldn't help teasing Nuo Yan, and then replied weakly: "But because the other party is my cutest sister, I forgive you.
Clotho is in the Temple of Destiny, trying to find a different future for you. "
"What kind of future is that?" Nuoyan asked curiously.
Lachesis tilted her head and said, "I don't know, Clotho won't let us see it, but... isn't this the best proof?"
Nuoyan nodded when he heard this and said, "Then, can I go see her?"
"Now?" This time it was Lachesis' turn to be stunned. She looked at Nuoyan with a little surprise and said, "Have you made a decision?"
"Yeah." Nuo Yan nodded again.
"...really don't think about it anymore?" Lachesis was silent for a while, and then asked: "After all, giving up is easier. You only need to say a word, and you don't have to bear the burden of hundreds of thousands of people. Damn it, this is a much better deal.”
"And the main thing is, even if you don't give up, what can you do?"
This is the matter of the goddess Persephone, becoming the Queen of the Underworld, a fate that a mortal should never participate in.
Not only was Nuoyan involved, he also wanted to take away her most cherished daughter from the hands of a god who could make the earth desolate, and abduct her to be someone else's wife.
Forget about being a wife, the place where she was abducted is still dark and like a prison. The underworld, which most gods despise, is where she goes to suffer.
Let alone a goddess, even an ordinary mother would probably think of desperate measures when faced with such a thing.
Therefore, even if she didn't see it, Lachesis could roughly guess that the future that her sister Clotho peeked into should be called Promise's Thousand Ways to Die.
Perhaps out of surprise, after Lachesis said so many words, her breathing was still even and she didn't faint.
"You're right." Nuoyan nodded and did not refute Lachesis. After all, this was a fact.
"When I think that my current choices will determine the future fate of hundreds of thousands of people, and even the future direction of the world, it is impossible to say that I don't care."
"And I only need to take a slight step back to let go of all this, but...then...then I won't be able to fulfill my agreement with your sister, right?"
If they give up their promise, can Athena and Hera avoid the future where Demeter, the goddess of agriculture, makes the earth barren? ...Actually, it’s hard to say.
Because they cannot forcefully order Demeter, not even the god king Zeus, not only because Demeter is a main god, but also because she is Hera, the sister of Zeus and the others.
And it is Demeter's power to give life to the earth or make it barren. If she cannot calm down the anger in her heart, all of this is very likely to happen, not to mention that this is the originally destined future in ancient Greek mythology.
"I promised her." As he said that, Nuoyan laughed and said to Lachesis: "I want her to see a better future.
What's more...this is the hero I chose. "
So soon,
In the ancient temple of destiny, the promise came here again.
When he opened his eyes, as usual, he found himself lying on the floor of the temple, with the thread of fate of all things above his head.
Beside him, Clotho, the goddess of fate, who was wearing a white robe with some white hair peeking out from her hood, was holding a crystal ball and kneeling quietly beside him.
When Nuoyan sat up, he looked at the petite goddess of destiny in front of him. Even though Clotto forced himself to cheer up, her face still showed visible fatigue.
Clotho's delicate face showed no surprise at the arrival of the promise. She must have been waiting for the promise for a long time since she could not see the present but could see the future.
The two of them didn't speak for a while.
Until Nuoyan laughed and took the lead to speak out, "Goddess Clotto, I...have come to shame you again!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Nuoyan was hit on the head skillfully by Clotto with the crystal ball... The more times he was hit, Clotto found that he was becoming more and more able to control the force.
"Nasty guy." Clotto said in that childish voice: "My sister should have told you everything. Even so, you are still determined to change. The fate I saw makes me ashamed. ”
"Of course." Nuo Yan answered without hesitation. If he had hesitated, he would not have come here. He smiled and said, "After all, I promised you that I will let you see a more beautiful future. How can I make a mistake?"
Hearing this, Clotho was quiet for a while.
"If you only made an oath with me, without Athena and Themis, would you still make such a choice?" Clotho said these words a little softly, and the more he spoke, the lower his voice became. It was as small as a promise. Almost didn't hear it.
"Huh?" Nuoyan blinked, looked at Clotto sitting in front of him, and said with surprise: "Goddess Clotto, did you just say something?"
Clotto didn't answer. She was thinking whether she should give the liar in front of her another hard blow on the head.
Nuoyan probably noticed it, so in order to avoid being knocked on the head again, he smiled, and then suddenly said seriously to Clotto: "Goddess Clotto, thank you.
There is no need to continue, you just need to wait, just as we vowed, you just need to wait, wait for me to present the future in front of you. "
"You want to say that no matter what I do, there will be no results. Unlike the goddess Athena and the goddess Themis, I will be humiliated by you anyway, so I just give up, right?" Lotto replied calmly.
Although she tried to stay calm and look like a goddess, she still pouted and looked unhappy, which made Nuo Yan couldn't help but feel funny.
Athena gave Promise the oracle and prepared him for trials, allowing him to step by step become a dazzling star in the world. The goddess of justice, Themis, gave Promise her sword to protect him on his journey.
Although Cloteau also gave a prophecy, the prophecy she gave had only one result, and that was that the promise was broken in various ways...
It’s no wonder that Clotto was unwilling to give in.
Also, Clotho himself was not aware of the hidden desire to win and lose in the promises made by Athena and Themis.
"Of course not."
After saying the promise, he subconsciously stretched out his hand to rub Clotto's head, but gave up halfway. After all, no matter how delicate she looked, the woman in front of her was also a goddess.
"Just as I am grateful to Athena and Themis in my heart, I am also grateful to you."
Lachesis said that Clotto had been trying to find a different future for him, and the promise that came here also saw with his own eyes how tired Clotto was now.
After all, on a normal day, she would definitely try her best to keep a straight face and make herself look 'dignified'.
After hearing the words, Clotto couldn't help but lower his head slightly when faced with the sincere words of the promise. After playing with the crystal ball in his hand for a while, he said: "Although I think it is impossible, I still want to ask you, are you really?" Don’t you want to give up?”
"This time you are going to intervene in matters between gods. The main god Demeter loves her daughter more than anyone else and cherishes the goddess Persephone. Anyone who wants to take her daughter away from her will do so. There will be a heavy price to pay.”
"And the fate cannot be changed. Even if you really take Persephone away, the angry gods Demeter will use their power to vent their anger on the entire world..."
By that time, the promise that was supposed to be a bystander would be the one indirectly driving all this, killing tens or even hundreds of thousands of lives.
Who let the decision-making power be in his hands at this moment?
Hades even gave him the invisibility helmet.
"And the most important thing is, because of your oath with the two goddesses Athena and Themis, no one will come out to help you this time, and they will even prevent other gods from participating, because... This is the path you choose."
Clotto said a lot. This scene was actually just like the incident between the moon god Artemis and the Pegasus. What Clotto really wanted to hear was not the promise of 'I will let you see more'. TAL', but want to hear the promise given up.
But even so, Nuoyan still smiled and replied without hesitation: "Yes, this is exactly the path I chose, and I will become that kind of hero."
...
...
The next day, it was dawn.
Pegasus, the celestial horse, flapped his silver-white wings and flew through the dawn sky with his promise.
Promise left the town, and ultimately did not go to see his friend Orpheus who had been waiting for him, because it was obviously not the time yet.
The promise had told Orpheus that it was all just a nightmare, and that he would bring Orpheus's wife back to Orpheus.
"Pegassus, please bring me to the goddess Persephone." Nuoyan said to the Pegasus. After hearing the words, the Pegasus glanced at Nuoyan and nodded gently.
Because at the moment when the promise was made, the goddess of wisdom had already marked the position and appeared in Pegasus's eyes.
"Athena, are you really planning to let him die?!" On the Holy Mountain of Olympus, Queen Hera, who witnessed this scene, said to Athena with an extremely ugly face.
Although she already knew about the oath made by Athena and the others, she also knew the reason from the mouth of Atropos, the goddess of fate.
But knowing and actually seeing are two different things.
Hera became anxious when she saw that Nuo Yan was actually preparing to intervene, while Athena and the others chose to watch and witness all this.
"He will not die, and will complete this trial." Athena replied calmly, "Because this is his oath to me."
"What a joke!"
Hera's eyes seemed to be on fire as she glared at Athena and said: "Not even you or I dare to say that we can definitely take away her daughter from Demeter's hands.
Just because of that ridiculous oath, you now want me to watch him die? ! "
After saying that, Hera turned around and prepared to ignore Athena, and now went to Nuoyan.
But what Hera didn't expect was that Themis, the goddess of justice, actually stood up at this moment and stood in front of her.
Hera looked at her with disbelief, the goddess holding a scale of judgment, and said, "Themis, you actually want to stop me?"
"That child did not give up." Themis replied to Hera coldly: "So I will protect him until the end. This is also my oath to him."
"That's your business, what does it have to do with me!"
Oath, oath!
The more he mentioned it, the angrier Hera became, saying: "I don't care whether you swear an oath or not. Anyway, I don't have anything to do with that kid. I'm going to stop this now.
I'm going to take him away today, but I want to see if any of you dare to stop me! "
With that said, just as Hera was about to push Themis away.
"No." Athena said lightly: "Hera, you can't do this, because this matter... is actually also an agreement between you and the child of Promise."
"Ha, what did you say, why don't I remember..."
Hera hadn't finished speaking yet.
"The Trial of the Golden Fleece." Athena's golden eyes looked quietly at Hera, who was stunned when she heard the words, and said: "The trial you gave me at the beginning is the promise, to find him. The real reason for friend Orpheus.
And Hera, don’t forget, this is still a marriage you promised Hades, it was the original trial of the promise, and...he is still your believer. "
Hera fell silent;
Her amber eyes looked at the calm Athena in front of her, and then looked at Themis, the goddess of justice, whose eyes were covered with white cloth, blocking her face.
His face became increasingly ugly.
Hermes on the side did not speak at this time. He was quietly moving his body, and at the same time he glanced at the Moon Goddess Artemis who was still blinking and excitedly eating melons and watching the show. He closed his mouth.
Hermes knew he had to run.
Because the atmosphere here is getting more and more solemn,
Perhaps even Athena, the goddess of wisdom, is really not sure whether this trial will really be the end of her promise.
Although her expression was still calm, her face no longer had the usual relaxed smile, as if she had everything under control.
"Athena, I see clearly at this moment."
And Hera, who gradually calmed down from her anger... no, to be precise, because she was too angry and calmed down, looked at Athena coldly.
"Even if the child in the future no longer chooses me to be his goddess, even if he later chooses the goddess of fate, or even chooses Themis, I won't say anything.
But only you, Athena...I will never give that child to you! "
Hermes swallowed his saliva. He felt that the melon he had eaten today seemed to be a little big, so he could hold on.
Then just as he was preparing to leave quietly.
"Hermes, where are you going?"
Athena stopped him and showed an unusually bright smile to Hermes who was frozen.
...
...
Three nights later,
At night when everything was silent, Nyx, the goddess of the night, covered the sky with night and stars. Deep in an ancient forest, she built a temple in a dangerous place.
The future Queen of the Underworld, the goddess Persephone, was blinking her beautiful bright eyes, sitting by the window, looking at the stars in the sky sadly.
Not long ago, she had a big fight with her mother, Demeter.
The reason is simple. When Hera was looking for the bride of Hades, Persephone stood up, and her mother Demeter knew about it.
So from that day on, Demeter forcibly brought Persephone to this temple and imprisoned her.
Outside the temple are all kinds of strange plants, and those plants are the eyes of Demeter, the goddess of agriculture. She can know whoever comes here.
In front of the temple gate, there are two terrifying giant beasts squatting. They are a pair of lions as tall as giants. They squat at the temple gate, obeying Demeter's orders and preventing intruders. The creatures that come here.
And at the same time, the guardian Persephone was not allowed to leave.
"......well."
