Type-Moon Greece, I really don't want to be a hero!

But I didn’t expect to encounter such a bad thing on my first stroll!

Cerberus became more and more angry as he thought about it. After raising his head and roaring "Woof woof woof!", he began to drive away the undead in front of him even more ferociously.

Seeing this, the gods of the underworld who were watching the battle in secret, as well as the nymphs who were like fire spirits, couldn't help but chuckle.

"This Cerberus... is really working hard."

"After all, the child in white is Hecate's child, so it's normal for Cerberus to work hard."

"But isn't it guarding the gate to the underworld? How did it get here?"

"I heard it was because that child, during his last battle with someone, encountered Cerberus's brother, the two-headed dog Otisius. Cerberus dragged him to the underworld to guard the gate together."

"Oh, I see... But Cerberus broke the rules, didn't he? I think he's in trouble later."

"Hey, isn't it Hecate's child who broke the rules?"

"Fool, don't you know that child is the brother of Persephone, Queen of the Underworld, and therefore the brother of Hades! The last time the rules were broken, Lord Hades was biased, not to mention that there's a scapegoat this time!"

"Oh…poor Cerberus."

"Shh, stop talking, Lord Pluto is here!"

Hades, the god of the underworld, glanced at the whispering gods around him, then looked away without saying anything.

Well, they actually understood so well that it saved Hades the trouble of explaining things later...

Obviously, Cerberus has to take the blame!

Unfortunately, it doesn’t know yet.

Poor Cerberus.

"Woof woof woof! Do you guys know who I am? I am Cerberus, the three-headed dog of hell. Get out of here, woof woof woof!"

He was venting his resentment, and at the same time, he noticed that Jason was gradually losing strength and Cerberus was no longer slacking off... After all, they were all on board.

Then, the three heads of Cerberus roared at the same time, which briefly frightened most of the undead and gave Jason a lot of breathing space.

Taking advantage of this time, Jason and his companions took another big step forward.

Finally, after more than three hours, we walked out of the vast gray plain.

So the undead wandering on the gray plains had to stop attacking Jason.

But this doesn't mean that Jason and the others are relieved. On the contrary, what comes next... is the most critical moment!

Walking out of the gray plain, in front of you is the underworld residence covered with white poplar trees and blooming red spider lilies, where countless monsters and goblins live.

Even with the threat of Cerberus, the three-headed dog of hell, Jason and Asclepius faced an even more severe test!

But Jason had no time to think about so much. Not to mention that Asclepius could not stop, the light protecting Asclepius alone could not last long.

In two hours at most, the breath of the underworld will once again corrode Asclepius' soul!

"This won't work, Jason. You and your brother, come up to me. I'll get you out!"

Cerberus, the three-headed hellhound, obviously sensed something was wrong, especially when he moved his nose and smelled some familiar breath approaching, his expression became serious.

"No, Lord Cerberus. Brother Hades said that Senior Brother Asclepius must personally carry his mother out of this road of no return before they can return to the human world."

"Damn, this is such trouble!" Cerberus bared his teeth, and all three heads raised simultaneously, looking towards the distance. "Jason, we're in trouble... Some of my old friends are here, and I probably can't protect you anymore!"

"Old friend?"

As soon as Jason finished replying, his doubts were answered.

On the dark road ahead, there appeared a giant black python, a giant from the underworld holding a huge club, and some strange ghosts from the underworld.

Apparently, he smelled the breath of living creatures and Cerberus, and came here.

When Jason saw them, his expression naturally changed.

"Jason, I leave the rest to you. I must take my old friends away, otherwise our battle will inevitably affect you!"

"...Thank you, Lord Cerberus. Don't worry, once this is over, I will definitely find time to repay you!"

"Hmph, what are you talking about? What's your relationship with me... But if you have time, it would be best if you could take me out to play."

Hearing this, Jason couldn't help but laugh.

Where did you come from, little puppy locked up at home? Why are you so looking forward to going out for a walk every day... As expected, little puppies all like to run around.

Just as Jason was thinking this, the roaring three-headed dog of hell leaped over and pounced on the tall giant, or the pitch-black python.

"Brother Asclepius, run... I know you're tired, but we must run. And remember, don't stop, and don't look up... Don't worry, I mean what I say. I will eliminate all obstacles in your way. Just keep moving forward!"

At the same time, Jason spoke loudly to Asclepius.

He took out some potion and poured it into Asclepius' mouth.

These potions replenished some of Asclepius's physical strength, so after gritting his teeth, Asclepius ran hard.

At this moment, although Asclepius could not see, he could hear. He could clearly hear how miserable the cries of the dead in the underworld were, which made people shudder, let alone fight against them!

Moreover, Asclepius also knew that the souls in the underworld were immortal, so he fully understood how difficult Jason's battle was at this moment.

But now all he could do was to take the guidance given to him by Jason and keep moving forward to get out of this dark road of no return!

Just like that, just ten minutes later...

"hateful!"

Jason gritted his teeth and held the magic spear in his hand with a slightly trembling hand. He looked at the screaming undead flying in the sky above the underworld and the evil spirits blocking the way in front of him, and felt helpless.

He has tried very hard... He has tried his best.

But now that Cerberus has left, he really has no way to continue driving away these undead spirits.

After all, force is of no use to them!

Moreover, as time goes by, the number of these underworld creatures will not decrease but will increase.

Now, both Jason and Asclepius, who had stopped running and was walking step by step with heavy breathing, had obviously reached their limits.

Is this all I can do?

Jason thought this unwillingly in his heart.

Just as Jason felt a trace of despair in his heart, the underworld gods around him sighed and thought it was over. Even Hades was silent.

The dead souls who were roaring sadly at him and Asclepius suddenly stopped.

It was as if it had stopped moving and did not attack Jason.

Jason was slightly stunned when he saw this. When he was wondering, he suddenly found a dancing dark butterfly flying towards him in front of him.

In this dim underworld, a dancing butterfly appeared in front of Jason and landed on the stunned Jason's shoulder.

Then, on the dim road ahead, a faint dark light illuminated the road ahead. A beautiful goddess dressed in black was walking on the road to the underworld, supported by many dark butterflies.

It appeared in Jason's eyes, which gradually widened, changing from surprise to ecstasy, and he became extremely excited.

"I say...can't you just calm down a bit?"

Then, a pleasant, gentle and helpless sound reached Jason's ears.

The goddess also came to Jason, reached out her hand, and pinched Jason's cheek helplessly.

"Teacher...Teacher Hecate, you are finally here!"

Jason said this and rushed towards Hecate.

That’s right, who else could this beautiful goddess who is supported by the Hades butterfly, wearing a black dress, with long black hair and red eyes, be other than Jason’s teacher Hecate!

But Hecate dodged Jason by slightly turning sideways. She rolled her eyes at Jason and said, "You... I just went out for a little while, and you got yourself into trouble again... It's really lively."

Hecate raised her head and glanced around.

I saw the gods of the underworld and Hades, the king of the underworld, who were watching the show!

Then he looked at Asclepius, who was still moving forward despite her arrival, and then at the tired Jason.

There was a thoughtful look in his eyes, and it was obvious that he understood what was going on.

"So that's what happened... There's nothing we can do about it."

Hecate suddenly realized and looked at Jason, spread her hands and said: "If that's the case, then I can't help you."

"Why is this happening!" Jason said with a pout, and wanted to hug Hecate's thigh, but Hecate stopped him with her hand!

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, you evil disciple! There are so many people watching us, you better pay attention to your image! ...Even if you don't care about your image, I still want to be your teacher!"

After Hecate finished speaking, she could clearly hear the sound of snickering all around her... This made Hecate look at Jason with hatred.

But seeing how exhausted he was, Hecate finally softened her heart.

"Okay, stop messing around... Although I can't help you, when I came back, someone asked me to give you something on his behalf."

After saying this, under Jason's puzzled gaze, Hecate took out a golden lyre from the magic circle beside her.

The moment he saw it, Jason recognized its identity.

Because Jason had seen it three years ago... The first time he met Apollo, the god of light, three years ago was because of this harp.

It has a charm that can make anyone intoxicated when they smell it, and even the ferocious monsters will become gentle and submissive in an instant.

Even the creatures in the underworld are no exception!

Because of this, there are similar cases in mythological stories.

Apollo, the future god of light, would give the lyre to one of his children, a poet and singer named Orpheus.

That was the lyre of the son of Apollo, the god of light, and Calliopa, the muse of literature and art, who possessed the ability to compete with the sirens, the goddesses who could seduce others with their singing.

In the story of the hero Orpheus, there was a story about Orpheus who went to the underworld to search for his beloved wife, used the sound of his piano to influence the dead souls, and even persuaded Hades and Persephone to agree to take his wife away.

However, the conditions were similar to this time, that is, when Orpheus and his wife walked out of the road of no return and returned to the human world, he could not look back at his wife, but could only keep moving forward.

But when they walked out of the gate of death, passed through the valley, crossed the dead river, and the road was gloomy, they finally saw the glimmer of light in the human world. However, his wife ignored him because Orpheus did not look back all the way.

In addition to the painful torture caused by the snake bite along the way, she cried at the last moment, and Orpheus couldn't help but turn around, hug her and comfort her.

Thus, all his efforts were in vain, and everything disappeared like a dream. The long arm of death once again pulled his wife back to the land of the dead, leaving him with only two strings of crystal tears.
