"It's getting late today, so you should get some rest first. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it tomorrow morning."
Naturally, the two dared not object to Artemis's orders.
And after all this commotion, the two of them were actually a little tired.
Then the two were taken by Artemis to a room with only a bed in it.
Artemis looked at Atalanta and Jason and said with a smile, "Go to bed, children."
When Atalanta heard this, she looked at Jason, opened her mouth, but finally said nothing and went to bed.
Jason's mouth twitched slightly, and then he said to Artemis: "My Lady Artemis, I think I can just keep watch..."
"No need to keep watch. You must be tired too. Go to sleep." Artemis replied with a smile: "Tonight, the moonlight will keep watch for you."
Hearing this, Jason had no choice but to go ahead.
Fortunately, the bed is quite big, and the two of them are indeed little ones, only over ten years old!
Then, after Artemis left, there was a period of silent silence.
"If you dare come close, I'll kill you!"
Jason could hear the muffled sound of Atalanta gnashing her teeth.
"Don't worry, I definitely won't!" Jason replied in a low voice.
"......Humph!"
Nothing happened overnight.
The next day, Jason got up from bed in a daze, facing the sunlight coming in from the window.
Hey, I actually fell asleep...I guess I was too tired last night.
Just as Jason was thinking this, he felt an itch near his ear. He turned his head and saw Atalanta, who was curled up and sleeping quietly.
Jason's body stiffened slightly for a moment, and then he began to move expressionlessly. After successfully getting out of bed without waking Atalanta, Jason breathed a sigh of relief.
Let's go out and find Lady Artemis.
Jason thought so and walked out of the room.
Not long after he walked out, Atalanta suddenly opened her eyes wide... As an excellent hunter, she would not miss any movement!
"Awake?" Artemis was stroking the golden-horned deer outside the house. When she saw Jason, she handed him the fruit she had picked.
Just as Jason was expressing his gratitude to Artemis, Atalanta also walked out of the room.
Jason couldn't help but look at Atalanta a few times. Seeing that she looked normal and showed no signs of anger, he felt relieved.
"Jason, you're going to continue your journey, right?"
As they both ate the fruit, Artemis said, "If that's the case, then I will escort you out of these mountains."
"Don't bother with that, Lady Artemis. I've already hired a hunter..."
"hunter?"
Artemis tilted her head and looked at Jason. "But didn't you leave the money in the tent and a message for them to go back?"
...It's sitting pretty tight, isn't it?
Atalanta glanced at Jason.
If Artemis hadn't been here, she would have really wanted to interrogate Jason and ask him what had gone wrong that made him run away last night.
Also, what is the attitude towards her?
By the way, the hunters have woken up now and are searching the mountains for people... It doesn't matter that Jason is missing, since they have the money anyway, but what about Atalanta's disappearance?
Especially Atalanta's uncle, he is almost dying of anxiety now!
Artemis knew everything, and Jason could only lower his head and eat wild fruits without saying a word.
Then Artemis looked at Atalanta and said with a smile, "Then Atalanta, do you want to come with me?"
"Yes!" Since it was related to Artemis, Atalanta's answer was naturally without any hesitation.
Chapter 21: Teacher, how long will it take for Jason to come?
then,
Five days later.
Jason walked out of the mountains that blocked his path.
Accompanied by the moon goddess Artemis, Jason did not encounter any trouble along the way, but there were some differences from his time with Apollo.
When Apollo was with him, he raised his golden bow and arrow and protected Jason, who hardly moved a muscle.
However, most of the monsters and beasts encountered along the way were defeated by Atalanta and Jason together.
What Artemis did most was to sit on the golden-horned deer and watch with interest the battles between the two men as they gradually became proficient in each other. She would occasionally go out to hunt some prey that interested her.
"it is finally over."
After they walked out of the mountains, before Jason could say anything, Atalanta immediately looked relieved.
During this period, Atalanta was almost always in a state of mental tension. After all, all the hunters had left, leaving her as the only guide.
And most importantly, it was under the eyes of Artemis.
Looking at Atalanta like this, and recalling her care over the past few days, Jason hesitated for a moment, but still thanked her: "Thank you for troubling you during this time, Atalanta."
Atalanta glanced at Jason and said, "It's okay. I'm not doing this for you, but for Lady Artemis!"
Hearing this, Jason smiled and then came to Artemis, who had just hopped down from the golden-horned deer. He bowed to her and said, "I express my deepest gratitude to you, Lady Artemis."
"I've told you many times that there's no need to be so restrained, little Jason."
Artemis smiled and patted Jason's head, then pinched his face to show her displeasure. She puffed her lips slightly and said, "You are Hecate's child, and you are good friends with little Atalanta. You must listen to me."
Who is good friends with him?
Atalanta opened her mouth, but she obviously would not yell at the goddess she believed in, so after hesitating for a moment, she said nothing.
"I've been very happy during this time... Ah, if it weren't for the fact that you still have to continue your journey, I would really like to keep you two by my side and play with you for a while."
Artemis said, a look of regret on her face.
But upon hearing this, Jason and Atalanta both had a few black lines on their foreheads.
No, we don't want to!
After saying this with regret, Artemis put her finger on her cheek, tilted her head slightly, looked at Jason, thought for a moment, and said, "So now, what should I give you? ... Hecate gives you protection, Athena gives you the direction to move forward, and Apollo gives you the sword to kill danger.
Now, what should I give you?"
Hmm...did I just hear some amazing name?
Jason blinked and looked at Artemis who tilted his head in thought, completely unaware that he had inadvertently sold someone out, even though Athena had repeatedly told her not to make a sound.
After thinking for a while, Jason shut up.
Well, forget it, just pretend I didn’t hear it!
But...it turns out it's Athena, the goddess of wisdom...
Just when Jason suddenly realized who the goddess he had met for the first time was, the one wearing a white dress, with silver hair and golden eyes, who made clothes for him.
When Atalanta heard the name of the god called out by Artemis, her eyelids twitched.
Then he looked at Jason in front of him, who was wearing white clothes and had blond hair and blue eyes.
No sound.
After all, during these five days, she naturally knew that Jason was carrying the "oracle", but because this matter was still very important, even the somewhat naive Artemis did not reveal it to Atalanta.
"Hmm, that's so difficult... Little Atalanta, what do you think I should give to little Jason?"
After thinking for a while, Artemis rubbed her head and looked at Atalanta for help.
Of course it would be best to give nothing. How could this guy deserve any reward from you, Lady Artemis?
This was naturally Atalanta's first reaction.
"Artemis, you don't actually need to give me anything." Jason couldn't help but speak out.
Deep down, Jason didn't really want to deal with these gods, let alone accept their gifts.
After all, anyone with a basic understanding of Greek mythology would understand.
The Greek gods are so capricious!
In the last second he may admire you very much, hold you in the palm of his hand and bestow gifts on you.
But the next second he might hold a grudge against you for a small matter and bring down divine punishment on you!
Jason's current dealings with them are mainly due to his having no other options.
He wanted to learn from Hecate, and at the same time he asked Hecate for help, hoping that she could help him change his destiny. So he naturally had to complete what Hecate arranged, not to mention that the matter itself was closely related to him.
"No!" But Artemis refused to give in. "Let's not talk about Hecate, Athena and Apollo both gave you things. If I don't give you anything, wouldn't I be inferior to them?"
......Is there such a saying?
After hearing this, Jason didn't know what to say.
But the problem is that after listening to it, Atalanta nodded and thought it was right!
Artemis is no worse than any other god!
So Atalanta now began to think seriously about Artemis.
After a brief thought, Atalanta said to Artemis, "Honorable Goddess Artemis, Jason now has protection, direction, and a sharp blade, so I think he only needs... a mount!"
"Mount?" Artemis looked at Atalanta curiously.
"Yes." Atalanta nodded and said, "He has protection, direction, and a sharp blade. So, on his way forward, the most important thing he needs now is probably a mount!
Lead him through all kinds of dangers and reach his destination!"
After Atalanta finished speaking, not only Artemis, but even Jason felt that it seemed to be true.
Although he could buy a horse along the way, even the horse brother Chiron gave him died tragically at the hands of monsters. Therefore, if he bought a horse, he would just be delivering food to the monsters.
