"Yeah." Apollo looked at Jason who stood up and nodded slightly.

He then stood up, looked at Jason carefully in front of him, and walked up to Jason with a smile.

He brushed the dust off the stiff Jason and said softly, "I never thought that in just a short time, you've grown up so much... and become so outstanding."

"How about you leave Hecate and follow me, child?"

Athena, Hestia, Ares, Artemis, Typhon, the ancestor of all demons, and Hera, and now Apollo has been added... Well, I don't know how Hecate will react when she knows this.

It’s easy, it’s easy to take in a disciple!

He only has one or two disciples in his life, and others are always thinking about him!

"No, Master Apollo, Teacher Hecate is my teacher, my most beloved goddess, so I will never leave Teacher Hecate!"

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Jason righteously refused.

"Yeah, that's right... After all, you even rejected the invitation from Queen Hera. It seems that you really love your teacher Hecate."

Apollo was not angry about Jason's rejection. After all, he knew that it would not be his turn based on the order of first come first served. Athena and the others were much faster than him.

"Let's not talk about this anymore..."

As he spoke, Apollo took out a shepherd's flute.

His shepherd's flute is antique, elegant and unique.

Jason knew what it was instantly.

It is the 'gift' that Hermes, the messenger of the gods, gave to Apollo to use against the hundred-eyed giant Argus. It is a shepherd's flute that has the ability to make all things in the world fall asleep upon hearing its sound and to make Argus' hundred eyes close.

"You know what it is. It's yours now... Take it, kid. You'll need it for the next leg of your journey."

Upon hearing this, Jason took the antique shepherd's flute.

But that’s not all, because this is a gift from Hermes, the messenger of the gods, but not from Apollo!

therefore......

"Geryon's cattle, the sound of his harp that resounds through the underworld, my child Asclepius, and my beloved Coronis... these are the tributes you have offered me, and they are the best tributes I have ever received."

Apollo gazed tenderly at the young man before him and said, "Each of them brings me unprecedented satisfaction...Ah, if you weren't Hecate's child, I would definitely fight Artemis!"

No, Lord Apollo, please don’t, we can discuss it, really everything can be discussed!

"I accept these tributes, and therefore... accept my gift, Jason."

After saying that, Apollo turned his head and looked at the dazzling sun in the blue sky.

Then he stretched out his hand towards the sun and took out a golden bow from the light shining from the sun.

"From today on, this bow... is yours."

Holding the golden bow, Apollo handed it to Jason.

All of this was naturally seen by the gods who were observing in secret.

Although most gods had already anticipated this scene.

But when they really saw with their own eyes Apollo giving his natal artifact - the bow, to Jason.

The eyes of many gods were still wide open.

"The bow of Apollo, the god of light, and the arrows of Artemis, the goddess of the moon... Has this child finally assembled this legendary weapon?"

Not far away, Amphitrite, the Queen of the Sea, sighed.

"This weapon...if I'm not mistaken, even among the gods, it only exists in legends, right?"

Amphitrite's sister, the goddess Calliroe, also sighed.

"Ah."

Amphitrite nodded and said, "After all, both the bow and the arrow are the natal artifacts of Apollo and Artemis.

Besides the God King Zeus, there's practically no being in the world today that could force the two of them to fight together... but in reality, it wasn't like no gods had ever seen such a thing before."

"Oh?" Kaliloe looked at Amphitrite in surprise.

After hesitating for a while, Amphitrite said, "I vaguely remember Poseidon mentioning this...

Back then, Hera persecuted their mother, the goddess Leto.

He once sent a vicious and cruel pest, the giant python Python, to devour the goddess.

In that incident, Poseidon created strong winds and waves to block the path of Python and protect the goddess Leto. But when Leto gave birth to her children Apollo and Artemis, the python Python found them.

At that time, the goddess Leto was unable to fight due to the pain of childbirth, and her good sister, the goddess Asteria, who was also the mother of Hecate, turned into an island and was also unable to fight.

So at that dangerous moment, the newly born Apollo grew up into a young male god at an extremely fast speed, borrowed the arrow from Artemis, and shot Artemis' arrow with his own bow! "

"Oh, what then?" Kaliroe looked curiously at Amphitrite who stopped talking here.

Amphitrite glanced at Calliroe, hesitated for a moment, and then continued, "Then the giant python Pithong was pierced by the arrow, and Hera, the Queen of Heaven, no longer threatened them and acknowledged their identities."

Amphitrite said, looking up at Jason who took the bow.

"Because Poseidon said that the arrow not only pierced Pythian, but also... flew towards Hera, the Queen of Heaven, who was sitting on Mount Olympus!

That arrow almost took the life of Queen Hera!

But it was ultimately blocked... by the God King Zeus himself, at the cost of injury!"

"Injured?" Kaliroe was stunned for a moment, then widened his eyes and asked, "You mean that arrow...the one Apollo shot when he was just born, and it injured the God King Zeus?!"

"Be quiet! ...Just listen to it, don't tell anyone."

Amphitrite glared at Calliroe, who was extremely shocked, and then watched Jason take Apollo's bow, and then the bow disappeared in front of Jason, and said: "Yes... if Poseidon had not deceived me.

After all, because there were too many people involved in that incident, few gods dared to spy on it... But no matter what, it is very obvious now.

In this world, someone has appeared who has acquired the legendary power... and it's a human child! "

Kaliroe was stunned for a moment as he listened to Amphitrite's words.

Then he looked at Jason, sized him up, and said, "According to what you said, this child now..."

"What are you thinking? He's just a child after all... and most importantly, he's just an ordinary mortal. He doesn't possess the power of Apollo, the God of Light.

Therefore, if you want to use Apollo's bow, you can only do so during the day when light shines on the earth.

If you want to use the arrows of Artemis, the moon goddess, you can only do so on a dark night when the moonlight falls on the earth.

Therefore... if he wanted to shoot Artemis' arrow with Apollo's bow, there were only two moments in the day when he could do so."

"Which two moments?"

Amphitrite looked up at the blue sky and the sun shining on the earth. After a moment, she replied, "At sunrise, when the first ray of light illuminates the night, the moment when the night has not yet completely faded away!

At sunset, when the full moon appears in the sky and darkness falls but does not completely block out the light!

simply put.

It is the first arrival of dawn.

The end of dusk.

Chapter 3 Jason, once again embarked on a journey (k)

"Oh right...you should keep it as well."

Just as Jason accepted Apollo's 'gift', the golden bow and arrow disappeared in the light in front of Jason.

Apollo took out another thing that Jason was very familiar with.

That golden sword.

In the underworld, Jason handed it over to Asclepius and protected Asclepius and his mother.

So naturally the sword finally returned to Apollo's hands.

Athena's guide, Asclepius, was also returned to Jason.

This sword was the weapon that Apollo lent to Jason... It was because Jason made his first journey three years ago to save Persephone, the Queen of the Underworld.

As the legend goes, it was recited by Atalanta among the hunters of Arcadia, the paradise of nature.

This sharp sword killed all the enemies that stood in Jason's way.

Jason looked at the golden sword handed to him by Apollo, and looked at Apollo for a while. After a brief hesitation, Apollo and the gods who were secretly observing were surprised that Jason did not take it.

Instead, he shook his head at Apollo.

"No, Master Apollo, it...is time to return it to you."

Jason refused Apollo's golden sword.

As he spoke, a golden bow appeared in Jason's hand. Jason smiled at the stunned Apollo and said, "I took it three years ago because I had no other choice but to rely on it. But now..."

Moreover, I have already received your gift, Master Apollo, so it is time for me to return it to you and stop relying on it."

Hearing this, Apollo came back to his senses.

In the blink of an eye, Jason disappeared and turned sixteen years old, growing into a young man, with most of the childishness on his face gone.

Apollo gradually smiled, sheathed his sword, and said, "Yes, you really don't need to rely on it anymore... My child, as promised, you must return this sword to me today."

"And in accordance with our second agreement, you also presented me with beautiful piano music. Your plucking of the strings even attracted the attention of the nine Muses!"

"So... this is my reward for you."

As he spoke, the golden lyre appeared in Apollo's hand. Apollo took it and placed it in Jason's hand.

This isn't a gift, it's a reward...
