Medusa nodded firmly: "My parents are gone, and even the feelings we once had are fake. I have nothing left to lose. So even if it is God, as long as he does something wrong, I will not turn a blind eye."

"But you killed Poseidon and avenged my parents. I cannot ignore this favor no matter what. So if you make a mistake, I will always urge you to correct it. If you find me too annoying, just kill me."

Tosaka Kiyoshi rubbed his brows helplessly: "Don't be so extreme, kid. Since I saved you, how could I kill you?"

"In that case, please change your bad habit of deceiving others' feelings."

Tosaka Kiyoshi spread his hands: "I don't have the habit of deceiving other people's feelings."

Medusa was stunned: "You mean..."

Tousaka Kiyoshi nodded: "Everything I said before is true, if you are willing."

Medusa stared at Tosaka Kiyoshi in a daze. The sudden happiness almost made her faint with excitement.

But after the excitement, she quickly regained her senses. The huge gap in status between the two parties made her a little discouraged.

The sun god has always been like the sun hanging high in the sky, untouchable even by the gods, let alone humans.

Now that the bright sun had descended beside her, she had to consider whether approaching it rashly would affect the sun's brilliance.

Being burned by the scorching sun was not even within her consideration.

Toosaka Kiyoya saw Medusa's dilemma and said, "I don't want you to give me an answer right now. There is still a long time to go. You can think about it slowly."

Then Tosaka Kiyoshi turned to look at Metis: "Now let's discuss how to deal with this guy."

Metis, who was watching the emotional drama of the year, was stunned. Why did the spearhead suddenly turn to her?

Medusa breathed a sigh of relief at Tosaka Kiyoshi's words, and she also looked at Metis beside her.

Athena didn't have a good way to deal with Metis.

If she is killed, the power of the underworld will return to the underworld; if she is not killed, she can only be imprisoned.

But imprisonment also requires guarding, and Metis, who holds the power of the underworld, cannot be watched by just anyone. Anything done afterwards must take into account the possibility that she might suddenly turn against them.

After thinking for a moment, Athena looked at Tosaka Kiyoshi and said, "Since you mentioned this, there should be a solution, right?"

Tousaka Kiyoshi nodded: "To be honest, a friend and I are currently working on something that requires someone like her who is related to the underworld. I don't think you can do anything with her, so why not let her work for my friend?"

Athena wondered, "Can your friend control her?"

"It's easy, I guarantee she'll be in good shape."

Athena thought for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, then Metis will be left to you."

Metis raised his hand at this time: "Can I know where I am going?"

"hell."

"hell?"

Metis and Athena had puzzled expressions on their faces.

The hell in the West generally refers to the hell in Christianity, but Christianity was not born until around the first century AD, which is still thousands of years away from now, so Metis and Athena did not know where hell was.

However, there is also a place similar to hell in Greek mythology, called Tartarus, where basically all the prisoners are terrible demons, or gods who were defeated in the fight for the throne of the king of gods.

Such as Zeus's father, and the twelve Titans.

Of course, the mythology of this world has only been around for a hundred years, so there probably isn't any such thing as a previous god-king. Zeus's father and the twelve Titans are probably just the background of the mythology, and they most likely don't exist at all.

"It's the place where the soul goes after a human dies," explained Kiyoshi Toosaka.

Metis: "Isn't that the underworld?"

"The underworld is only a part of Hell. Do you think Athena knows how big the underworld is?"

Metis looked at Athena, who shook her head.

As the Earth Mother, she has existed in human records for hundreds of years, but she was not born from faith until recent decades.

Moreover, not long after its birth, the matriarchal society turned into a patriarchal society, and the Greek gods were born soon after.

As for Hecatia, she has existed in Hell for thousands of years alone. I'm afraid she already existed when Kiyoshi Tousaka built the Moon Palace on the moon.

After Tousaka Kiyoshi explained what he was going to do in hell, Metis immediately took the initiative to speak: "I want to go! I don't want to stay here anymore! Zeus, that old pervert, makes me sick just by looking at him!"

Being able to confront Athena for such a long time and even plot against Athena, Metis must have good vision.

She saw at a glance how promising the so-called reincarnation system was. Instead of staying here and acting according to Zeus's wishes, it would be better to join the construction of the reincarnation system. In the future, she would be a veteran in hell.

"If you go, you won't be able to be a judge."

The judge demanded fairness and justice, and he only intended to use people from the Yama clan.

"It's okay, just leave the rest to me. I prefer the job of ferryman."

Rowing a boat on the River Styx all day, ferrying souls from one shore to the other, doesn't that mean you can slack off at any time?

And because of the special nature of the job, I can often go to the world of the living, which is much freer than other positions.

If Tousaka Kiyoshi knew what Metis was thinking at this time, he would definitely not recruit her.

Unfortunately, there is no if. When Metis's subordinates all learned from her to slack off at work, it was too late for Kiyoshi Toosaka to regret.

Chapter 210: Attending Your Own Memorial Service

After arranging Metis's destination, Athena turned to look at Medusa.

"I forgot to tell you before, after this incident, you are no longer fit to be a priest."

Upon hearing this, Medusa was first stunned, then depressed, but she did not ask the reason and calmly accepted the fact.

Toosaka Kiyoshi couldn't help but ask, "Can you finish what you're saying at once? She's about to cry!"

Medusa quickly shook her head and blinked her eyes hard to show that she was not crying.

Athena immediately added: "The reason why I don't let you continue to be a priest is because there are more important things that need you."

Medusa looked up: "Really?"

Then she realized that she shouldn't question the decision of God, and quickly said, "I'm sorry, I just don't know how I can help you, God! I definitely don't mean to question you."

Athena waved her hand: "No need to explain so much, I'm not an unreasonable person."

Toosaka Kiyoshi couldn't help but ask: "You still haven't realized that you are different?"

Medusa had a confused look on her face, not understanding what Tousaka Kiyoshi meant.

"You look exactly like Nana, don't you think there's something wrong?"

Medusa suddenly realized: "So why is this?"

Athena then spoke and explained her life story to Medusa, and Medusa then realized that she was actually one of Athena's incarnations.

Although this truth is incredible, it is a reasonable explanation for her appearance being the same as Athena, and Athena has no reason to lie to her.

Medusa had a complicated expression when she learned the truth. She had been a human for more than ten years, and suddenly she was told that she was an incarnation of a god. This huge change in identity was not something she could accept in a short time.

But she also felt a little happy in her heart, because this way she could be closer to Tohsaka Kiyoshi.

Athena was silent for a moment, and after making sure that Medusa had digested the information she had said, she spoke again: "The power of the earth is the prerequisite for finding the Gorgon Stone, so I would like to ask you to help me find the Gorgon Stone."

Medusa nodded without any hesitation and said, "No problem!"

Athena shook her head and said, "You should listen to what will happen after I get the Gorgon Stone before you answer."

Medusa nodded, and Athena spoke: "After obtaining the Gorgon Stone, I will become the Earth Goddess again, which means that I will reclaim the power of the earth and the underworld, and your current ability to petrify any object will disappear. This will not do you any good, are you really willing to do this?"

Medusa thought for a moment and finally nodded. She didn't like this overly powerful and uncontrollable force.

Afterwards, the four discussed the details of the search for the Gorgon Stone.

After dawn, people who had slept all night woke up, only to find that most of the Temple of Athena had become ruins.

Then the high priest of the temple announced something to the people.

Last night a monster named Gorgon appeared and attacked the temple of Lady Athena at night.

Although Lady Athena arrived as quickly as possible, most of the temple was still destroyed, and Priest Kiyoshi Tousaka and Priest Medusa were brutally killed by the monster.

Metis then held a memorial service for Kiyoshi Tousaka and Medusa in the name of Athena.

It is worth mentioning that Kiyoshi Toosaka and Medusa herself also participated, which was a novel experience for them.

Although everyone was puzzled as to why Tosaka Kiyoshi and Medusa appeared in the temple at night, they were already dead, and no one was interested in these unimportant matters.

Just like that, Kiyoshi Toosaka and Medusa withdrew from the public eye. Medusa led Athena to find the Gorgon Stone. Kiyoshi Toosaka, Skadi and Yukari continued their journey, but this time there was an extra Metis by their side.

Originally, Kiyoshi Toosaka was planning to hand Metis over directly to Hecatia, but Metis said that she had discovered something very interesting and wanted to take that thing to hell with her, so Kiyoshi Toosaka took her on a journey.

Since there was nothing urgent, Tousaka Kiyoshi and the others were not in a hurry to travel, so it was more than half a month later that they arrived at Metis's private residence.

It was a country located north of Greece, roughly the region of Bulgaria in later times.

Because this country is located inland, the level of civilization development is far different from that of Greece. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a barbarian country.

In an unknown mountain forest, Metis took Tosaka Kiyoshi and the other two into his own secluded place.

When Metis took out a lively rabbit leg from a clay jar, Toosaka Kiyoshi's mouth twitched constantly. Wasn't this the leg of the experimental rabbit that he had let run away?

"Is this the interesting thing you mentioned?"

Metis shook the struggling rabbit leg and said, "It's just one leg, but it looks like a whole rabbit. Isn't that interesting?"

"It's like a rabbit leg that keeps jumping around. I just feel shady."

Zi nodded repeatedly, indicating that Tousaka Kiyoshi was right, and at the same time hid behind Skadi. She was really afraid of that leg.

Although Tousaka Kiyoshi said this, he was also surprised at the efficacy of the experimental version of the elixir of immortality.

You know, one leg cannot actively absorb energy, but after more than half a month, this leg is still so active. This is simply rubbing the law of conservation of energy to the ground.

Metis ignored Tousaka Kiyoshi's complaints and took out a snake from another jar.

"I actually found two rabbit legs, and I fed one to the snake. Guess what happened."

Tosaka Kiyoshi shook his head: "I don't guess."

According to his understanding of the efficacy of the drug, even if the meat of the rabbit was eaten and broken down into the various molecules required for animal activities, it would still be considered alive.

However, whether molecules can be considered as life or not is still debatable, and it is also uncertain whether they have their own consciousness.

"Tsk..." Metis curled his lips and took the initiative to explain, "The snake that ate the rabbit leg gained an amazing self-healing ability. Even if it was cut into several pieces, it would recover in a short time."

Tousaka Kiyoshi was stunned at first, then suddenly stared at the snake in Metis's hand.

"let me try."

If it is true as Metis said, then it can serve as the self-healing ability needed to make the elixir of immortality.

Metis just thought that Tousaka Kiyoshi didn't believe it, so he didn't think much about it and handed the snake to Tousaka Kiyoshi.

After Tousaka Kiyoshi cut the snake in half, he saw the snake twisting its body and stitching the two broken pieces together, and it was fully recovered in less than half a minute.

Kiyoshi Toosaka began to wonder why this situation had occurred, but after thinking for a long time he still couldn't figure out the reason.

Soon, Kiyoshi Toosaka gave up thinking. He didn't understand the reason. Humans had already built ships that could sail on the sea when they didn't know how to calculate buoyancy.

He doesn't have to know the reason for this situation, as long as he knows how to use it.

After realizing this, Tousaka Kiyoshi wanted to test how strong the snake's immortality was, so he pierced the snake's head with a sword.

The snake's body flapped twice on the ground and then became silent.

Tosaka Kiyoshi blinked. Is he dead just like that? How can he be immortal? It can only be regarded as an ability to heal non-fatal injuries. If he is hit in the vitals, he will still die.

However, this approach should be feasible, but the proportion of the concept of "indestructible" in the elixir of immortality must be increased.

Metis watched as her precious snake was stabbed to death by Tousaka Kiyoshi, and wanted to ask, "Do you have a habit of torturing animals?"

But after thinking about the fact that he would still have to work under Tousaka Kiyoshi in the future, he suppressed his momentary dissatisfaction.

After thinking clearly about the next experimental route, Tousaka Kiyoshi reached out to Metis: "I want this rabbit leg."

Metis's face froze, and she reluctantly handed the clay jar containing the rabbit legs to Tousaka Kiyoshi.

"Do you have any extra ones? A rabbit should have four legs."

Metis shook her head. "I found this the night before I was about to fight Athena. I only found two legs."

Toosaka Kiyoshi nodded slightly. It didn't matter if there was no clue about the other two legs. Since the effect of eating the rabbit legs was so obvious, there would definitely be rumors of an unkillable monster somewhere in the near future. He could just look for it then.
