Those who knew the situation did not give too much explanation. Even if it was a misunderstanding, the ones who were misunderstood were vampires. So what if people hated them more?

In the tacit understanding between each other, another truth was buried in the corner of history, and future generations would only remember the story of the bloodthirsty devil being killed by the righteous god.

Similar stories of justice triumphing over evil are recorded in every religion of later generations. These are indeed stories compiled by the church to maintain its rule, but the prototypes of the stories are mostly folk tales passed down from that era.

At this time, Kiyoshi Toosaka was still completely unaware that his house had been burned down.

He landed on the island called "the end of the world" at night, found Medusa and Athena, and learned the reason why they stayed on the island.

During the ten years they were apart, Athena had been helping Medusa master the power of the earth for eight years, and it was only in the last two years that Medusa began to help Athena find the Gorgon Stone.

Following the instructions of the earth, they came to this island and got to know many of the former earth goddesses on this island.

Of course, they now have only one name, and that is Gorgon, which is synonymous with monster.

Since they were defeated in the myth, they have been staying on this island peacefully.

They also knew how to make the Gorgon Stone appear, but they accepted their fate of defeat. They did not approve of Athena's idea of ​​resistance, so they did not welcome Medusa and Athena who came for the Gorgon Stone.

Medusa and Athena have been staying on this island for more than a year now, and they have tried various methods, but have failed to change the minds of these former goddesses of the earth.

It seemed that because of meeting Kiyoshi Toosaka, Medusa became a little excited and spoke much bolder.

"If it weren't for the fact that Lady Athena is now one of the Twelve Gods of Olympus, they would have driven us off the island long ago."

Athena didn't care about Medusa's conspiracy against her. After all, she was one of her former incarnations, and she was very tolerant.

After hearing this, Tosaka Kiyoshi glanced at Athena and found that she didn't react, so he asked, "Nana, why do you think they don't want to help you?"

Athena answered without hesitation: "Death. Although they have become monsters now, they can still live here without worries."

"If they help me rebel against Zeus, even if they succeed, it will only allow me to regain my former power and become equal to Zeus. They will still be retaliated by Zeus. Even if I protect them, their lives will not necessarily be better than they are now."

"And the greater possibility is failure. I will completely lose the possibility of turning the tables and can only be the goddess of wisdom in Greek mythology for the rest of my life."

"What awaits them is eternal damnation. There is a high probability that they will be imprisoned in Tartarus, where death would even be a relief."

Toosaka Kiyoshi was shocked: "There are only risks and no rewards. No wonder they are unwilling to help."

Athena nodded, "So I don't blame them."

Medusa said, "But if that's the case, how are you going to get the Gorgon Stone, Lady Athena?"

At this time, Tousaka Kiyoshi patted his chest and said, "Leave this to me. I will make sure they help with all their strength."

Athena looked at Tosaka Kiyoshi in confusion: "Big talk?"

Tosaka Kiyoshi stretched out his hand and rubbed Athena's expressionless face: "I haven't seen you for ten years, Nana, you are not behaving well at all now!"

Medusa looked at the intimate interaction between Kiyoshi Tousaka and Athena with envy in her eyes.

How she wished that the person being kneaded by Tosaka Kiyoshi could be herself.

If it were in the past, and Athena looked the same as her, she could still put herself into the picture.

But ten years later, Medusa had grown up and looked exactly like Metis, a beautiful girl with silver hair. However, Athena was exactly the same as she was ten years ago.

Looking at this scene again now, Medusa can no longer put herself in his shoes.

After Tousaka Kiyoshi had rubbed enough, he withdrew his hand and rubbed Medusa's head twice, who had a look of envy on her face.

Medusa's face immediately turned red, and her eyes were evasive, not knowing where to look.

Seeing this, Athena thought her clone was beyond saving, so she asked Tousaka Kiyoshi: "What is your method? Do you need my help?"

Tousaka Kiyoshi shook his head: "My method is to do nothing and wait."

“Will opportunities fall from the sky?”

Toosaka Kiyoshi smiled: "Sometimes it really happens."

Athena frowned: "What do you mean?"

Tosaka Kiyoshi explained: "Before coming here, I went to Athens first, and then went to the place where the nine-headed snake Hydra was. After destroying it, I rushed here."

"Although I was traveling very fast along the way, I also heard some news. It is said that Perseus has already started his adventure and will probably arrive here soon."

"His target is Medusa, who was cursed to become a monster, but we all know that Medusa did not become a monster, so what will he do when he comes here?"

Athena was a smart person, and she understood everything after just a little reminder from Tousaka Kiyoshi.

Perseus, who was determined to become a hero, came here, but he did not see Medusa who had turned into a monster. What should he do? He couldn't return empty-handed, right? Then he would not be able to become a hero.

Therefore, he would definitely set his target on the Gorgon on this island. Since he couldn't defeat Medusa, it was acceptable to settle for the next best thing.

Perseus certainly would not kill all the Gorgons. He does not have the same idea as I do, nor does he have the ability to do so.

But the Gorgons here don't think so. Perseus is the son of Zeus, and he has the flying sandals of Hermes, the god of commerce, the invisible helmet of Hades, the god of the underworld, and the diamond sword of Hephaestus, the god of fire.

If such a being wanted to kill them, wouldn't that represent the intentions of the gods behind him?

Today it is Perseus who comes, so will Hades come next? And after that, will it be Zeus?

In the eyes of the Gorgons, Perseus, who carries the weapons of the gods, is the spokesperson of the gods. If he takes action, it means that the gods are going to settle accounts with them.

At that time, the Gorgon, who thought he had no way out, could only choose to stand on Athena's side and take a gamble, and Athena would naturally get the Gorgon Stone.

So it is really just as Toosaka Kiyoshi said, as long as they do nothing, opportunities will fall from the sky.

Seeing Athena and Kiyoshi Tohsaka smiling in tacit agreement, Medusa couldn't help but ask, "So what will Perseus do?"

Tosaka Kiyoshi replied: "In order not to return empty-handed, and to be a hero, he will kill the Gorgon here to make up the number."

Medusa panicked: "Then let's tell them about this quickly. If we help them, they will be willing to help us, right?"

Toosaka Kiyoshi shook his head and said, "You think too simply. This is a serious matter. They will not be willing to hand over the Gorgon Stone just because of this matter."

"If you want them to help, you have to make them willing to be Zeus' enemy and offer to help."

"So our best option is to invite them after Perseus kills some of them and they feel resentful. With a common enemy, there is a high probability that they will agree."

Medusa frowned: "But won't someone be killed by Perseus? We could have warned them earlier and reduced their casualties. Why did we do this?"

Kiyoshi Tousaka replied: "Everything we have is just speculation, there is no evidence. Even if we tell them, they probably won't believe it. And hatred is a good trigger. Only by maintaining hatred will they do their best. The death of a companion is the most direct and simple way to arouse hatred."

Medusa fell silent for a long time, then lowered her head and said, "Lady Athena, do you think so too?"

Athena nodded: "This is a good idea."

Medusa was silent again.

At this time, Tosaka Kiyoshi said: "What we have to do is to fight against Zeus. Sacrifice is inevitable. You don't have to take it too seriously."

Medusa was still speechless.

Kiyoshi Tousaka continued, "Even if we don't do this, Zeus will not let them go because they hold the Gorgon Stone. If they don't resist now, they will have lost the chance to resist by the time we leave."

Medusa looked up: "I know, I just feel a little sad."

Tosaka Kiyoshi ruffled Medusa's hair: "It's because you are kind."

Athena also praised: "Kindness is a very beautiful quality."

Tosaka Kiyoshi added: "If you don't want to see tragedy happen, I can send you away from here."

Medusa immediately shook her head after hearing this: "No, I'll stay here!"

"Okay, I respect your choice."

Then Medusa said: "If possible, can you please protect two people? They are friends I met here."

Having finished talking about the main business, Tousaka Kiyoshi simply said, "Why don't you take me to meet them? I'm also very curious about your new friends."

Medusa nodded immediately and the two left together.

While rushing to where Medusa's friends were, Kiyoshi Toosaka learned from Medusa that her friends were a pair of twin sisters, the elder sister was named Stheno and the younger sister was named Euryale.

In mythology, there are two possible origins of Medusa: one is a priestess of Athena, and the other is the youngest sister of the three Gorgon sisters.

Obviously Medusa's origin is the first type, so Kiyoshi Toosaka has already assumed that the three Gorgon sisters do not exist in this world, but he did not expect to meet them here.

When Toosaka Kiyoshi heard these two names, his heart skipped a beat, wondering if they were the two people he remembered.

After all, he has seen too many familiar faces in this world. Hecatia can transform into the Lady of the Nine Heavens, so he would not be surprised if Tianzhao appeared in the familiar appearance one day.

After meeting, Kiyoshi Toosaka found that the two sisters were exactly as he had imagined them to be.

A petite body, a white dress, and long purple hair tied into two ponytails.

A person with a gentle smile like an older sister, but always seems a little dark and sinister.

The other one had the innocence and flawless smile of a young girl, seeming to be the combination of all male ideals.

Medusa pulled Tosaka Kiyoshi in front of the two idol-like girls and explained, "Sister Stheno, and Sister Euryale, this is Lord Apollo, the sun god I mentioned to you."

The girl, who looked a bit sinister, looked at Tosaka Kiyoshi in surprise: "Sun God, there are so many big figures on the island recently, first the Goddess of Wisdom, and now the Sun God. So, Sun God, what are you doing here?"

Yurielle didn't say anything, but her eyes were always looking at Kiyoshi Toosaka, as if she wanted to see through Kiyoshi Toosaka's heart.

After her gaze met Kiyoshi Toosaka's, Yurielle blinked mischievously, and the liveliness and innocence of a young girl were fully displayed in her.

After Tousaka Kiyoshi sighed in his heart, he asked, "Are you also Gorgons?"

"No." Stheno shook his head. "Eurielie and I are the embodiment of all men's dreams. We are goddesses born as the 'ideal woman'."

"Then why are you here?"

The appearance of these two sisters here is simply a dimensionality reduction attack on the other Gorgons, and even the style of painting is different.

"We have been here since birth. Those Gorgons are outsiders who came later."

This time it was Euryale who answered, and from her tone, it seemed that she had a lot of complaints about the Gorgon on the island.

Chapter 217 Death of Perseus

Stheno smiled and explained: "Eurielie doesn't have any problem with the existence of the Gorgons. She simply hates all ugly things."

The corner of Toosaka Kiyoshi's mouth twitched, and he complained in his heart: Do I have to eat your rice because I'm ugly?

Then Stheno said, "By the way, Ellie likes you very much."

That's okay. If you want to praise someone, just say it directly. There's no need to beat around the bush.

Yurielle immediately said like a spoiled child, "Sister, please don't tell everything to others."

Stheno chuckled: "We agreed to treat Medusa as our biological sister. If that's the case, how can he be considered an outsider?"

Seeing the two lolis who were less than 1.4 meters tall calling the tall Medusa "sister", Kiyoshi Toosaka felt an indescribable sense of weirdness.

"Um..." Tousaka Kiyoshi said, "I came to see you because I want to tell you something."

Stheno and Euryale turned to look at Kiyoshi Toosaka at the same time. Kiyoshi Toosaka told them that Perseus would come to the island and reminded them to be careful.

But Stheno still had a smiling expression on his face, and it was unclear whether he had heard it or not.

In the blink of an eye, several days passed, and at a certain moment when no one noticed, an invisible figure fell from the sky onto the island.

The moment he landed, the detection means that Tousaka Kiyoshi had prepared in advance detected his location.

Kiyoshi Toosaka, who rushed to the scene, looked at the empty space in front of him and narrowed his eyes slightly.

It really is Hades's invisibility helmet. Even he cannot see Perseus' existence with the naked eye.

However, Perseus's performance was that of a complete rookie. Any hunter in the city was better at hiding than him.

As soon as Toosaka Kiyoshi's eyes swept over his location, his heartbeat quickened uncontrollably. If his perception was a little sharper, he could tell where he was by listening to his heartbeat.

Toosaka Kiyoshi couldn't help but wonder, could someone like him really kill those Gorgons who were once the Earth Goddesses?

Perseus clenched the sword in his hand and stared at Kiyoshi Toosaka not far away. He didn't understand why a human appeared on the Gorgon's island.

Were they captured by the Gorgons from human cities?

Perseus did not try to communicate with Kiyoshi Toosaka. On this island inhabited by monsters, only Pluto's helmet could give him a sense of security.

After a while, Kiyoshi Tousaka pretended not to notice that Perseus had left.

After he left, Perseus breathed a sigh of relief, then carefully groped his way deeper into the island.

Time passed, and it was around noon. The Gorgons, who had eaten and drunk their fill, lay on the beach basking in the sun. This was the most comfortable time of the day for them, but also the time when their vigilance was the least relaxed.

Perseus was a little confused when he failed to find Medusa on the island. Since Medusa did not exist, was he going to return empty-handed?

In his confusion, he came to the beach and saw countless lazy and relaxed Gorgons.

Perseus' mind immediately became active. If he launched a surprise attack at this time, these Gorgons would definitely not be able to react.
