【I hope.....】

[Will she mind?]

[For some reason, the hairs on your back suddenly stand up, and you feel a chill.]

[It's like someone is staring at me from the shadows.]

[You glanced back suspiciously, but didn't notice anything, so you didn't pay much attention to it.]

[It must be an illusion.]

[As you thought about this, you didn't notice Anna's increasingly strange look. The girl had already noticed the little eyeball in the shadow, but she just didn't say anything.]

[Has Zoe always been so brave? ]

[How dare you speak ill of God in front of him? ]

[I can't afford to offend you. I can't afford to offend you. 】

【He is a ruthless person! 】

[“Zoe.”]

【"What's wrong?"】

[“Nothing, I just think you’re really amazing, in every sense.”]

【“???”】

【What's the meaning? 】

[Looking at Anna's back as she left, you scratched your head in confusion. Why do you always feel that what this girl said is not a good thing? ]

【boom! 】

[As Hercules dropped the huge anchor into the sea, the Argo slowly entered the harbor.]

[After three days of sailing, the supplies on the ship are almost exhausted and need to be replenished here. ]

[And the crew members were almost unable to stay any longer, and they all ran down in groups like wild horses. ]

[They were especially excited when they saw a group of slim and beautiful young women and girls welcoming them at the port.]

[As if he had been given a shot of chicken blood, he burst out at a much faster speed than usual and plunged into the land of tenderness. ]

【Not realizing the weirdness of this place at all.】

[This was also true for Jason. Even as the captain, he was one of the first to go down.]

【It played a very good leading role. 】

[In just a few minutes, only a few people were left on the once bustling Argo. ]

[Besides you, Anna, and Togo who is not interested in human women, only Hercules and Atalanta are still here.]

[“Hercules, won’t you go down? They are all gone.”]

[After spending some time together, you and this Hercules, who is famous and upright in Greek mythology, have gradually become familiar with each other.]

【They can be considered as good friends. 】

[“I always feel like something is wrong here.”]

[Hercules shook his head and continued his work. Watching him effortlessly throw huge anchors into the sea, you can't help but feel a little envious.]

【This is the demigod! 】

[I wish I had such a terrifying power...]

[“Zoe, aren’t you going down? This is your hometown, aren’t you going back to see your family?”]

[“I’m not in a hurry.”]

[You glanced at the women still waiting at the beach and said indifferently: "And they are not my relatives. To be precise, they may have a grudge against me."]

[“Have a grudge? What’s going on?”]

[Hercules became interested, and even the cool cat-eared girl, Miss Atalanta, who was wiping the longbow in her hand, pricked up her ears. ]

【So, you told Anna the story again.】

[“The curse on them was cast by His Majesty Hephaestus. Do you think they like me? I’m afraid they would rush over and chop off my head as soon as I go down.”]

[“They shouldn’t be that brave. Isn’t His Majesty Hephaestus still on the island?”]

[Hercules made a joke, and then his expression became serious.]

[He decided to get off the boat and tell his companions about these things, persuading them to come back after replenishing their supplies and leave this troubled place as soon as possible.]

Atalanta sneered at Hercules' naive idea, pointed at the heroes who were enjoying themselves and indulging in the gentleness of women, and said with disdain: "Look at what they look like now! Hercules, not everyone has such a firm belief as you. They will never leave until they suffer!"

[Hearing this, Hercules fell silent. 】

[He understands the truth, but as a hero, how can he watch his companions fall into the quagmire? ]

[Although this was a thankless task, Hercules still got off the boat without hesitation to persuade Jason.]

[Seeing Hercules leave, you also prepare to return to the temple to visit Eucleia and the others, and Hephaestus.]

[So he called Togo and Anna, took the gifts he had bought on the way and set off. ]

.................................................. ................

Lin Yi did not dare to pass through the territory of those women, mainly because he was really afraid of being caught and beheaded on the spot.

To be on the safe side, he had Togo land on the other side of Lemnos.

Then we walked through the familiar forest and headed straight for the temple.

Lin Yi and Togo haven't returned for half a year since the day they left.

But everything on the island didn't seem to have changed much.

The forest is still full of vitality, and the temple standing silently in the center of the island is still so deserted and quiet.

Time seemed to have stopped, and everything seemed to have happened yesterday.

There are just more hares in the forest.

Mainly because without the two pests Lin Yi and Togo, the living environment of the wild rabbits has improved, so aren’t there more of them?

On the way home, Togo excitedly told Anna about the interesting things that happened in the past.

“Woohoo!” (That’s where I found Zoe. He was just a tiny kid at the time, smelled sweet, and was so cute!)

Togo pointed at the tree where he found Lin Yi and kept howling at Anna.

It is not yet an adult and cannot speak like a human.

Fortunately, Anna is not a human, but a kind of monster, so she can naturally understand what Togo is saying.

"So, Togo, you should be considered Zoe's brother?"

"Woo-woo-woo!" (Of course, I'm Zoe's brother! And his best friend!)

"I only have two sisters and no brother. It would be nice if I had a brother too."

“Woo woo woo.” (It doesn’t matter. Why don’t you just let Zoe be your little brother? He’s the youngest among the three of us anyway.)

The growth rate of monsters is different from that of humans, so it is difficult to judge accurately.

Just like Anna.

She looks to be no more than twelve years old, but in fact, she is twice as old as Lin Yi!

From a human perspective, she is a legal loli.

However, according to Anna's growth rate, she is still a minor.

After all, Anna no longer looks like a loli when she grows up.

But it’s the royal sister Medusa.

Or the more powerful Gorgon.

Listening to the two immortals comparing their age with an ordinary human like him, Lin Yi couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Alright, you two, how can you calculate like this? In the human concept, I am already an adult! And both of you are not adults, so I am the eldest! No objection will be accepted!"

After re-emphasizing that he was the eldest brother, Lin Yi did not give Togo a chance to refute. He pointed to the temple whose outline could already be seen in front of him and said, "I will go to see His Majesty Hephaestus later. Togo, you take Anna to find Sister Ocleya and the others."

"I haven't seen you for so long. I kind of miss my four sisters."

Not only Lin Yi missed Oklea, but Togo did too.

"Woo!" (Hold on tight, I'm going to speed up!)

It let out a long howl toward the sky, increased its speed, and ran away with its four wolf legs leaving behind a shadow.

A distance of a thousand meters, reached in an instant!

.................................................. ...................

Chapter 38: I heard you said I was narrow-minded? (Please save it!)

[After a brief separation from Togo and Anna, you pushed open the temple door and headed alone to the depths of the temple, to the palace where Hephaestus specialized in forging.]

[The environment here is no different from before, making you feel like you are in a furnace]

[However, you have been exercising well during this period, and with the blessing of the ocean, your tolerance to high temperatures has improved a lot. You don't have to worry about almost dying of dehydration like you did before.]

[I am not standing still! ]

[With a slightly proud feeling, you walked into the corridor, before you could prove your progress.]

[The gold bracelet on the wrist exudes a cool breath, forming a protective shield that blocks out all the scorching air. ]

[You were slightly startled, then shook your head and laughed, a warm feeling flowing through your heart.]

[So, Your Majesty Hephaestus, is this why you gave me the gold bracelet? ]

【This is really a clumsy way of caring. 】

[Just like the goddess's usual temperament, she is nice to you but never says it. ]

【Only in these little details. 】

[You look forward to meeting Hephaestus more and more, and your steps become lighter. ]

[Walked through the corridor and knocked on the thick iron door. ]

[Dongdongdong——]

[“Your Majesty Hephaestus, are you there? I’m Zoe, I’m back to see you!”]

[Before he finished speaking, the iron door opened automatically.]

[Hephaestus sits in a wheelchair, squinting his noble golden eyes, looking you up and down.]

[This scrutinizing look makes you feel uncomfortable. ]

[Took a step back in shame.]

【"Ah."】

[I don't know if he was amused by you, Hephaestus chuckled and waved his hand, signaling you to come closer. ]

[You breathe a sigh of relief and walk forward.]

[As soon as he got close, a small white hand grabbed his ear.]

[Looking up, what came into view was Hephaestus's delicate and beautiful face, with a hint of coldness and aloofness.]

[She was not wearing a mask, and the flame pattern on the right half of her face was clearly visible.]

[It adds a touch of charm. ]

[The goddess' tone was unkind, but the strength in her hands did not increase much.]

[“Zoe, do you think I’m a narrow-minded person?”]

[“I’m really sorry, that’s just who I am! So if you say something bad about me and I punish you now, you won’t mind, right?”]

【broken! 】

[How did His Majesty Hephaestus know about this? 】
