Type-Moon, I heard that after death, you can ascend to the Throne of Heroes?

"In that situation, the golden apple should not be eaten anyway..." Nuoyan said honestly.

Although he always felt that the goddess Hephaestus was not as dangerous as Athena and Hera said, Nuoyan naturally could not really ignore the advice of Athena and others.

"Then why did you still eat it?" Hephaestus blinked.

The maid next to him couldn't help but open her eyes and looked at Nuoyan curiously when she heard this.

"I got what I wanted most from you, but I didn't even meet your basic requirements." Nuoyan said, groping around and took out the pure white feather pen.

Hephaestus did not take it back because she had already made a relevant oath with Nuoyan.

Hephaestus saw Nuoyan's actions and naturally understood his thoughts. After thinking for a while, he said: "In this case, are you willing to give up your belief in Hera?"

Nuoyan heard it, glanced at Hephaestus, and then looked around.

"Respected and beautiful goddess Hephaestus, I roughly understand why you locked me up, but... why here?"

Nuoyan glanced at the exquisite room in front of him, and then looked at Hephaestus in front of him, who was wearing a pure white nightgown with a large area of ​​flawless skin exposed...

No matter how you look at it, this is the goddess's boudoir!

"Because I'm going to sleep next." Hephaestus replied, and she rubbed her eyes...Even for her, forging a divine weapon like the one in Nuoyan's hand, she had already spent all her energy.

"But I don't feel at ease to leave you to the puppets...Your Pegasus is still wearing Hades's invisible helmet, right? I found it a long time ago."

Hearing this, Nuoyan was not surprised that Hephaestus found the invisible helmet, but...

"Puppet?" Nuoyan tilted her head and looked at the maid next to her.

"Well, she is a puppet...To be precise, all the people you have seen in the temple so far are puppets made by me." Hephaestus said lightly.

"Pandora?" Nuoyan almost said it subconsciously after hearing this.

"They are all defective products, and they are not worthy of being compared with Pandora, one of my most perfect masterpieces..." When Hephaestus said this, there was an unconcealable tiredness in his voice, and his head drooped slightly, as if he was about to fall asleep at any time.

Nuoyan finally got anxious when he saw this.

Because in fact, today is the last day for Nuoyan to wait for Hephaestus in the temple. If Hephaestus does not come out, he actually plans to leave.

Let's not talk about whether to leave or not, Nuoyan did plan to do so at that time.

The reason is that today is the tenth day.

It is the day when Nuoyan will go to the underworld as agreed, take Persephone away from Hades, the god of the underworld, and return it to Demeter, the goddess of agriculture!

"Wait, Goddess Hephaestus, don't sleep yet. Can you help me let go first? I have to go to the underworld. I need to return Persephone to Goddess Demeter!

I promise you that I will come back after I finish all this!"

Hearing this, Hephaestus raised his head and looked at Nuoyan with a confused look.

"Oh...but what does that have to do with me?"

After saying that, Hephaestus, who couldn't bear it anymore, yawned and looked at the maid.

The maid understood, stepped forward and carefully picked up Hephaestus, letting the golden hair that was almost as tall as the body fall on the bed, and gently put it down.

So Hephaestus closed his eyes and slept in front of Nuoyan.

And the maid who did all this looked at Nuoyan who blinked at her, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't think of paying attention.

Not only did she leave the room as if she was relieved, she also left the room tightly when she left the room.

After all, the maid was not afraid of something happening.

Instead of worrying that Nuoyan would plot against Hephaestus, it would be better to worry that Hephaestus would sleep better and not accidentally hit Nuoyan when he turned over.

Do you understand the value of the evaluation of being as delicate as a flower, which is recognized by all the gods!

"Hmm..."

Nuoyan, who was sitting on the bed, was stunned for a while, then pulled the chain on his hand again, listened to the crisp collision sound, and looked at Hephaestus who was completely asleep on the bed with the moonlight shining in through the floor-to-ceiling window.

"So... what should I do now?"

Chapter 78 Escaped, but not completely!

The light of the bright moon shone on the sleeping goddess through the floor-to-ceiling window.

Even though she fell asleep this time, she still had the black mask on one side of her face, covering her appearance.

But at such a close distance and completely defenseless, Nuoyan had to admit that it was really difficult for him to take his eyes off her for a while.

Although Hephaestus is the ugliest god, her ugliness actually comes from her legs that cannot stand and the mark on her face that burns like fire.

She is indeed ugly in the eyes of the gods.

Not to mention that Hephaestus is the child of Queen Hera and King Zeus, she should not be disabled.

"Should I wake her up?" Nuoyan muttered, looking at the sleeping goddess in front of him, he seemed a little entangled.

After all, Nuoyan didn't have any dislike for Hephaestus, and he was very grateful to her in his heart.

I got such a precious artifact right from the beginning, and all I paid for it was just a vow. The vow even followed the promise, and I didn't even have to experience the pain of the rich woman's happy ball. Who wouldn't be confused after this!

"She has no ill intentions towards me. Even if she imprisons me...it should be said that even if she does, she is actually targeting the Queen of Heaven, Hera." Nuoyan whispered.

As for what happened between Hephaestus and Hera, Nuoyan didn't really know anything about it, so under such circumstances, it was really difficult for him to hate Hephaestus in front of him.

"Goddess Hephaestus, if it were normal times, I would not resist being imprisoned by you... Of course, it would be better if we don't imprison us and talk to each other, but I really have something to do now, can you let me go first? I'll leave and come back to you after I complete the agreement?"

Nuo Yan got up from the ground and looked at the sleeping Hephaestus in front of him. After thinking for a while, he decided to step forward and shake her awake, but found that the length of the chain was not enough.

Listening to his words, Hephaestus only felt the noise and frowned, and turned over.

Just when Nuoyan saw this and was about to say something, the maid outside the door listened and was hesitating whether to open the door to remind him not to wake up Hephaestus later. She was unhappy and slapped him. That's when even imprisonment is no longer needed.

Nuoyan suddenly discovered that the moonlight outside the floor-to-ceiling window suddenly disappeared, as if it was blocked by something, and the room suddenly became dark... To be more precise, it was actually within his sight. , the moonlight was blocked and became pitch black.

Because at this moment, it is already past twelve o'clock in the evening, and the agreed time has arrived.

A butterfly flapping its wings came here from the underworld in the darkness when the moon completely disappeared. It passed through the floor-to-ceiling windows and flew to Nuoyan.

The dark light falling from it activated the magic that the goddess had retained on Nuoyan... Yes, the chain in Nuoyan's hand can indeed ignore the power of any god, but it does not belong to the god. Power, but magic.

No, to be precise, this should be the magic left by Hecate, the goddess of the road.

Therefore, although there was a fluctuation of magic power, because the fluctuation was very small, Hephaestus did not wake up from his sleep... The reason why she locked the promise in her room was actually to Prevent Athena, Hera and others from stealing people.

No matter who it is, as long as she enters the room, she will naturally wake up after sensing the divine power.

As for the promise of cutting off one's arm to get out of trouble, let's not talk about whether it is of any use. The maid outside did not dare to leave, and she was always standing at the door!

So when the magic circle appeared at Nuoyan's feet, accompanied by a burst of white light, Nuoyan disappeared here and went to the underworld.

And almost immediately after the promise disappeared, the maid, after careful consideration, opened the door and walked in.

She was about to remind Nuo Yan to keep her voice down and stop talking. When she looked up, she only saw half of the chain broken... In fact, the chain was not broken, but was teleported away. It was still bound to Promise in hand.

After all, this is the creation of Hephaestus, the God of Craftsmen, and it is impossible to break it unless it is done with absolute brute force or a divine weapon like Zeus' thunder or Hades' trident.

So, the maid was dumbfounded.

Not only was she stupid, but when she realized that the promise had disappeared right before her eyes, she felt that the sky had fallen!

Because now it was neither if she woke Hephaestus nor if she didn't.

Regardless of whether she was woken up or not, the maid who rolled her eyes and almost fainted knew it all.

She struggled for so long, but in the end she still did not escape the fate of being torn down!

...

...

And when Nuo Yan opened his eyes and recovered from the aftereffects of teleportation that he had gradually become accustomed to, he suddenly found that the situation in front of him was a bit beyond his expectation.

Promise came to a temple at this time, and the temple here was not like the temple of Hades, the king of Hades, it was not even like a temple in the underworld.

There is a small sun imitated by magic in the sky above the temple. Under the bright sunshine, all kinds of beautiful flowers and plants in bloom are placed in an orderly manner around the temple.

The temple seemed a little deserted because there were only two people in the entire temple.

One person is responsible for taking care of the flowers and plants, and the other is responsible for the household chores... To be precise, because a certain goddess is so homely, no one told her to go out for hundreds of years, because the temple was already abandoned. Same.

The reason why it is so vibrant and beautiful now is entirely due to the girl who traveled far away and came here to study.

Nuo Yan soon discovered her,

Because she seemed to be in a good mood at this time, humming an unknown tune and watering the flowers with nectar not far away.

And looking at the cute girl wearing a light purple dress, with beautiful long hair tied into a ponytail, swaying.

Nuoyan didn't know why, but the more he looked at her, the more familiar she seemed.

Just when he was wondering, the butterfly that brought the promise here flapped its wings and landed on the girl's shoulder.

"Hey, Miss Familiar, you are back, welcome back." The girl found it and said very happily.

Mingdie couldn't respond to the girl, but the girl didn't care. After all, it was enough to have a companion who could talk.

Although she came here to study, her teacher was actually unreliable. The girl had to rely on herself to learn. It was normal to see him once every one or two months.

This was the underworld again. The girl almost forgot how long she hadn't seen a living person.

Therefore...

"Hey, Miss Familiar, do you want to say something to me?"

Seeing that the underworld butterfly had been flapping its wings at her, as if urging her to do something, the puzzled girl was puzzled. Suddenly, as if she felt something, she subconsciously turned sideways and looked at Nuoyan.

And just when she turned around and looked into Nuoyan's eyes, who had already stood up, Nuoyan finally knew where the familiar feeling came from.

So they were stunned at the same time, and their eyes widened slightly at the same time.

The girl was shocked that she actually saw a third person in the teacher's temple!

And Nuoyan was shocked that he really knew this girl, and because of the time traveler, he was quite familiar with her.

Her name was Medea.

She was a student of the goddess of roads Hecate, and also the princess of Colchis, the end point of the Golden Fleece's journey.

That's right, she was Jason's wife in the original history.

The witch who fell madly in love with Jason because she was shot by Cupid, the little god of love, and was granted marriage by Hera.

She was also the famous betrayer witch in the future ancient Greek mythology!

In the original myth, she killed her own brothers for Jason, and even killed her and Jason's children for revenge when Jason betrayed his marriage...

But now all that has not happened yet. At this time, Medea is in the most innocent and lovable period of her life.

So when both parties looked at each other in shock, no one spoke for a while.

"Oh no, I forgot about this!" The goddess in a black dress, black hair and red eyes, ran out of the temple with a worried face.

She was so anxious that she even forgot to bring the veil to cover her face.

And when she came here and looked at the two people in front of her who were staring at each other and stunned at the same time.

Hecate understood instantly that she was late after all!

Chapter 79 Mother Demeter, calm down, I am your daughter! (6k)

Hecate, the goddess of roads,

Hecate is the triple goddess of opportunity and the goddess of magic, and is one of the few unmarried goddesses in ancient Greek mythology.

She is very special, special in two ways. First, Hecate does not belong to the underworld or the sky. She does not belong to either side, but can move freely in either side.

And because of the help she gave to Zeus during the war of gods, even now Zeus respects her very much... Of course, it may not be as simple as respect. Hecate wears a veil all year round and stays in the eternally dark underworld without going out. No matter how you look at it, it has something to do with Zeus.

The second is the power controlled by Hecate.

She represents the accidental factors of fate. Her appearance will add some lubricant to the gears of time that are destined to run, leaving room for the unpredictable.

To put it simply, Hecate is actually the controller of fate, just like the three goddesses of fate. The power she possesses is the uncertainty factor composed of chance and coincidence.

And this is why Hecate did not hide her disgust when she saw Nuoyan for the first time.

Good guy, four threads of fate intersect with the goddesses, and each goddess is not simple, young man, you are really brave!
