Type-Moon, there are too many myths that defy the heavens!

Chapter 44: The Argonaut Adventure, Start!

Judging from common sense, Ash really thinks that no one can be self-disciplined enough to spend money on a life of luxury for the person they love.

But judging by what happened to Artemis and Athena after they used their trumpets, as well as all of Aphrodite's actions so far, he really felt more and more uncertain and panicked the more he thought about it.

Logically speaking, gods can create a body to use as a trumpet, but a clone with a personality is closer to the offspring of the god rather than a trumpet.

Therefore, the clone cannot become the original body. At most, it can only borrow power from the original body. The original body has no way to bypass the clone's own personality and directly gain control of the other party's body.

In other words, as long as Ash can create Galatea with a personality, there is no need to worry about her being a miniature Aphrodite.

The problem is that Ash has no experience in creating characters, and has no way of judging whether the personality of Galatea he created is Aphrodite in disguise.

If this were to happen... Ash felt that he could change his name to Uchiha Madara.

However, he soon had a new idea: since Aphrodite could potentially approach me at any time with a small account, instead of being on guard against the possible appearance of Aphrodite's small account every day, I might as well take the initiative and create Galatea as a suitable container first, and focus on her.

In this way, even if Aphrodite comes online, I can at least take this opportunity to understand and influence her.

As for what happens during this process...

It’s okay, I don’t believe Athena and Artemis won’t take action!

"I can't carve stone statues or build machines."

After thinking through all the possibilities, Ash said to Daedalus, "Can you teach me how to make a machine?"

Perhaps because he felt a strong sense of life-threatening danger, Daedalus put away his almost fanatical curiosity about the power of God and calmed down.

"Uh……"

Daedalus thought for a moment and said to Ash, "You should know that I only learned the forging technique of scales and claws from the gods, while Lady Ariadne's skills have truly reached the divine realm..."

No, buddy, why do you get scared when I mention learning technology from you?

Besides, what you said is really easy for you to say without any pain in your waist!

You also asked me to learn technology from Athena...? Damn, I don’t know whether Aphrodite is self-disciplined or not, but don’t I know what Athena is like?

You asked me to learn technology from her, and then you used the technology she taught me to create a Galatea Adam wife for her... Wouldn't that piss her off?

Oh my god, your generation of Dalos is so mean!

Just as Ash was about to curse, Helen said, "Master Ash, you should really ask Lady Ariadne for advice."

"What?"

Ash looked at Helen in disbelief, as if he saw a hateful traitor. "You want me to learn technology from Ariadne too?"

"Yes."

Helen smiled sweetly and said something that left Ash dumbfounded and stunned.

"If you seek Ariadne's guidance, no matter how dissatisfied she may be, at least she will know that you care about her, and she will also gain a little special joy from teaching you."

"But if you ask Daedalus for advice instead of her... she'll likely think you don't care about her feelings, or that you don't truly trust her... and that will only make her even more sad."

"If it were you, which of the two situations above would you find more uncomfortable?"

I Zhuo, can you understand it this way?

Listening to what Helen said, Ash couldn't help but be shocked and complained: "What you said, then wouldn't it be better for me not to learn?"

"With all due respect, this is the worst option."

Helen continued, "I believe you will encounter this problem many times in the future."

"If you always choose to back down when faced with this kind of problem... one day you'll have no way out, right?"

Helen said, "Besides... I have a way to convince Lady Ariadne."

Oh my god, what level of rhetoric do you have? Can you convince Athena, who is such a jealous person?

Ash couldn't help but ask curiously: "What do you have in mind?"

Helen smiled, leaned close to Ash's ear, and whispered, "Just put it this way: It's because you trust her that you ask her for advice on how to use your power. If she refuses, you'll have no choice but to seek guidance from Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty."

Oh my god, I’ve heard this line of speech in my previous life!

Isn't this just a combination of "If you don't teach, there are plenty of people who can" plus "Athena, you don't want Aphrodite to take action, do you?"

If you play it this way, Athena will have no choice but to teach me instead of getting angry with me.

As Ash listened to Helen's words, he became more and more frightened and could no longer hold himself back.

"What's wrong...Are you dissatisfied, Master Ash?"

"Don't worry, Lady Ariadne will definitely agree to your request."

Helen continued, "If you're worried, you can ask her to teach you step by step, or ask her to give you a divine core, or even ask her to create a human with you..."

"You can choose any one of these three statements."

At this point, Helen smiled slyly, "Whatever you choose, Lady Ariadne will certainly accept it with pleasure."

I've heard this line of talk before!

Isn’t this just giving a slap in the face and then a sweet date?

That’s too bad, that’s really too bad!

Helen, are you such a scheming and bad woman?

Where on earth did you learn such a despicable trick?

Ash really wanted to complain, but considering the current situation, he decided to put it more tactfully, reminding her via voice transmission: [Isn't it a bit... inappropriate to say that to her?]

【How could that be? 】

Helen also replied through voice transmission, "Believe me, if Lady Ariadne could hear your request, she would be overjoyed!"

[You...]

Ash couldn't hold it in any longer and complained, "It's a bit depressing."

[It is a maid's honor to share her master's worries.]

Helen then replied, "If I can't help you in any way, I would be ungrateful for saving your life."

[But...wasn't it Aphrodite who changed your fate? ]

Ash then asked, [Shouldn't you help her? ]

"Aphrodite-sama has indeed helped me a lot, but I know that she only helped me because you, my master, would help me anyway."

Helen smiled and said, "You are my true savior."

[I know, Master, you can't bear to do such a 'bad thing'... I can also share your worries, as long as... you don't hate me or despise me...]

Oh my god, you are not a mecha god, why are you so heavy?

Could it be that... there are no light-weight women in all of Greece?

Ash couldn't hold it in any longer and said directly: "Forget it... I'll explain the situation to Ariadne. There's no need for you to be the bad guy, Helen."

【Owner……】

Helen was stunned for a moment, then said incredulously, "You really are... an incredible person."

"I will go to Ariadne for advice."

After deciding on the plan, Ash stopped transmitting and said to Daedalus, "The Argo is about to set sail. What are you and your family going to do?"

"We will follow the ship and act as a maintenance team."

Daedalus said truthfully, "Here, we can actually play our best role and don't have to worry about being seen by others."

"...That's true...After all, this ship is filled with heroes, it can be said to be a collection of the best of all Greece."

Ash nodded, agreeing with Daedalus. "Then I'll trouble you for the next few days."

“We will work hard!”

Hearing Ash's encouragement, Daedalus immediately bowed again and said seriously, "Then, Master Ash, please allow us to return to our posts and continue working."

"go Go."

Ash smiled and said, "I won't get involved in work matters. If you encounter any problems outside of work, you can talk to me."

"I will."

After saying this, Daedalus walked out of the corridor with his wife and children and began his work.

After Daedalus and his family left, Ash lowered his head and looked at Jason who was still pretending to be dead at his feet, and frowned.

"Captain, are you still working?"

Ash couldn't help but kick Jason twice and said, "If you don't want to work, I can ask Lady Hera for help."

Hearing Ash's words, Jason immediately opened his eyes and stood up as quickly as possible, as if he were a private who had received an order from the commander.

"Oh, why did I fall asleep?"

Jason made a bewildered expression and said to Ash, "Thank you, hero, for waking me up. Otherwise, the launching ceremony would have been delayed!"

I'm speechless. I can't continue talking to you. Typical Greek swordsman thinking.

Although Ash really wanted to continue to punish Jason, he immediately lost interest when he saw the other party's shameless and cowardly appearance.

"Although I have made some contributions to this ship, in the final analysis, the position of captain still belongs to you."

Ash got straight to the point, "So once we're on board, I won't interfere with your choices, and I'll obey your orders."

Ash added: "Of course, provided your orders are reasonable."

Jason nodded his head in a mellow voice and said sweetly, "I know, I know. If it's nothing serious, I won't bother you."

"You... forget it... I ask you to treat everyone equally, but you definitely can't do it..."

Ash complained, "Anyway, I'll help you wherever I can. You don't have to be so reserved, understand?"

"Ok."

Jason saluted and then asked, "I wonder... should I call you brother... or hero?"

Good man, you even want to hug my thighs, right?

Where did these professional lackeys come from?

Ash complained in his heart, and then found a good way to deal with Jason.

"If you call me big brother, it will be too much for me."

Ash smiled, maliciously revealing some of the truth, "Don't look at me like this, I'm only twelve years old."

Oh my god, how can I listen to this?

If the goddesses knew that I knew they were secretly running a copper mine... oh my, I would be horrified!

When Jason listened to Ash's words, he looked like he had been exposed to forbidden knowledge, and his whole body showed a collapsed expression.

"Um... Mr. Ash... I'm timid..."

Jason was so frightened that he started to cry and said pitifully, "I didn't hear anything just now... Is that okay?"

No, buddy, aren’t you pretty good at playing dead?

How come he becomes like a Hammer fan who traveled to Holy Terra after being scared for a little bit, and becomes like this?

Looking at Jason's frightened expression, most of Ash's resentment disappeared immediately and turned into joy.

"I didn't say anything just now, maybe you heard it wrong."

Ash patted Jason's shoulder and said with a smile, "Be careful next time and don't hallucinate."

"I understand!"

Jason, as if granted amnesty, quickly said, "Then... can I go and hold the launching ceremony?"

"go Go."

Ash instructed, "When Hercules returns, remember to sacrifice the sea dragon he captured to the gods."

"I see!"

After hearing the instructions, Jason nodded quickly and left the cabin as quickly as possible.

After waiting for Hercules to return from hunting, the grand ceremony of launching the Argo began.
