Ash came back to his senses and quickly explained, "I was thinking about how to explain to Mother Demeter how I met such a charming girl in the past six months."

When the two goddesses who had temporarily formed an alliance heard this, their pretty faces immediately turned red with embarrassment.

Their faces turned red with embarrassment, not only because they couldn't stand Ash's sudden love words, but also because they remembered their original identities.

They could use a sham account to avoid the chastity oath, but they couldn't stand up to Demeter and say that they were not her niece who was planning to have sex with her.

If Ash could read the thoughts of the two goddesses, he would probably sigh at this moment. After all, they are chaste goddesses, with dignity and integrity that the cow cannot match.

"Speaking of which..."

Ash forced himself to cheer up and change the subject, asking the two goddesses, "Now that Jason is married, how do we get the Golden Fleece?"

"This is simple."

Ariadne pointed at Aphaia and said seriously, "If she appears before King Aeetes of Colchis, he will obediently hand over the Golden Fleece."

No, sister, how can you cheat like this?

Ash couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard the solution given by the Goddess of Wisdom.

It’s not Ash’s fault that he’s having a hard time holding back, but because Athena’s move is truly an impeccable cheating move!

You know, in the original mythology, King Aeetes of Colchis was the son of the sun god Helios. In Type-Moon's Greek mythology, although Helios was the predecessor of Apollo, that was in the Titan era. Aeetes was obviously not a demigod that existed in the Titan era, so he should naturally be the child of Apollo.

In other words, when Artemis asked Aeetes for the Golden Fleece, in theory it was like an aunt asking her nephew for something, but in reality it was like a parent asking his descendants to pay tribute, which was a normal operation that the younger generation in the current Greek society could absolutely not resist.

However, although this move was simple, crude, and quick to take effect, Ash felt that it was not a good move.

"If I remember correctly, he has already presented the Golden Fleece to Ares and placed it in Ares' temple, right?"

Ash recalled the original myth and asked his own question, "If we force him to hand over the Golden Fleece... wouldn't that be like pushing Aeetes into a pit of fire?"

"Don't worry, Ares won't hold a grudge against Aeetes for this."

In response to Ash's question, Ariadne smiled and said, "Because... he can no longer divert his hatred."

"Ares can't divert hatred?"

Ash was stunned when he heard this and couldn't help but reveal an awkward expression.

Because he had found the answer from the words of the goddess of wisdom.

"Could it be... I haven't even seen Aphrodite..."

Ash asked Ariadne uncertainly, "Does Ares really hold a grudge against me to the point where... he only has me on his mind?"

“That’s right.”

Ariadne said to Ash with a smile, "So... Ash, please don't leave my side and make me worry."

This Ares in the groove... Could it be that he has already prepared to transform into a wild boar and look for a chance to kill me?

Although Ash does not have a God's perspective, he has every reason to believe in Ares.

Because, in the predetermined future that he knew from Hades, he, who was in love with Aphrodite, was killed by Ares who turned into a wild boar!

Spicy next door, is Ares really so petty that he can even hold grudges for things that haven't happened yet?

It seems that it’s better for me to stay on the boat and not get off.

Otherwise, what if Ares suddenly rushed out of the temple and attacked me, killing me directly?

Ash knew that his idea was very abstract, because this sneak attack not only had a low success rate, but also made it easy for Ares to be surrounded and kicked by the goddesses.

However, precisely because this behavior is so abstract, Ash is more convinced that Ares can do it.

Because, that is Ares, the god of war who fights again and again despite repeated defeats and never learns from his lessons!

Ares can do stupid things that other gods can't do... Isn't this common sense in ancient Greece?

Thinking of this, Ash immediately decided to stay on the ship and wait for Hercules to help Jason obtain the Golden Fleece and complete the main mission of "The Argonauts".

however.

Just as Ash was thinking of returning to the cabin to wait for news, he discovered that Afia had disappeared from his side.

Oh my god, where is Artemis’ trumpet?

"Ash, I'm back~"

Just when Ash was wondering about Aphia's whereabouts, she had already run back to the ship with a sack on her back and the Golden Fleece in her hands.

As soon as they boarded the boat, the Moon Goddess, who was in full action, handed the Golden Fleece to Jason, who looked bewildered, and said with a smile: "This is the Golden Fleece. You can go back and report."

"what?"

Jason took the Golden Fleece with a bewildered look on his face and subconsciously said thank you, "Thank you."

"You're welcome. I helped you so I could go back home earlier."

"Look, who did I bring back?"

After that, Afia picked up the sack again and trotted over to her beloved. Like a cat returning with its prey, ready to show off its accomplishments to its owner, she said with a smile, "Can we go home now?"

"Who?"

Ash opened the sack with an incredulous look on his face, and his whole body was numb.

Because, the sack did not contain any treasure, but it contained priceless treasures in the hearts of many moon people.

She was a beautiful girl with purple hair, wearing a gorgeous dress and a neat ponytail. Her appearance was so beautiful that one could imagine her as a princess.

That’s right, that was the first treasure Jason took from Colchis in the original myth. It was also the psychological shadow and black moonlight that made him regret this plundering behavior for the rest of his life, the legendary Princess of Colchis and the great Greek witch - Medea!

Artemis, you're really fast, huh?

Faced with the speedrunning behavior of Moon Goddess's secondary account, Ash couldn't hold back any longer.

67

Chapter 67: You are more powerful than a cow!

Ash really couldn't hold back at Artemis's overly abstract speedrunning operation.

"Isn't this Medea, Princess of Colchis?"

"No...Afia, you..."

Ash looked at the unconscious young Medea and couldn't help but ask the Moon Goddess, who looked like she was trying to win the prize, "Why did you tie her up when we could just take the Golden Fleece?"

"what?"

Seeing Ash ask this question, Afia immediately replied, "Wasn't it her destiny that she would be taken away by the Argo?"

Not sisters?

The predetermined fate is the predetermined fate, and reality is reality!

I have already arranged for Jason and Hypsipyle to get married, and their child is about to be born. Aren't you just making do by kidnapping Medea?

Ash couldn't hold it in any longer and changed his tone to complain, "After all, she's Apollo's granddaughter, your relative. Wouldn't it be nice for her to stay in Colchis and be a princess? If we kidnap her, won't we have to find her a place to live?"

"Alas..."

Afia was stunned when she heard this, and it took her several seconds to react, "How about... I send her back?"

Oh my god, you really didn't think about anything and just knocked your niece's granddaughter unconscious and tied her onto the boat?

As expected of the hunting goddess, her mobility is much higher than that of ordinary people!

Just as Ash was thinking about how to deal with the Medea problem, Ariadne said, "No, it's better to take Medea away."

"Medea's destiny was to leave her homeland and leave behind legends everywhere."

Ariadne said, "It would be better to take her away than to leave her in Colchis."

"Even without considering its predetermined fate, Colchis itself is destined for civil strife."

"Ash, you should know that the 'prophecies' and 'oracles' we make are merely warnings to the world."

The Goddess of Wisdom sighed, "It's a pity that Aeetes is a man who refuses to repent and only seeks to avoid the consequences of the 'prophecy'. In the end, he will die in accordance with the prophecy."

"Aeetes killed Phrixus, who presented him with the Golden Fleece, because he had received a prophecy that he would die at the hands of a descendant of Aeolus."

"Not only that, he even offered the Golden Fleece to Ares in an effort to consolidate his power, attempting to use the god's blessing to protect his own rule rather than changing his own governing attitude."

"Precisely because he is such a complete tyrant, as soon as he loses the Golden Fleece, the symbol of power, he will naturally lose his legitimate rule completely."

"It just so happened that his brother Perses (meaning to ravage) was also like him, a superstitious person who believed in prophecies and refused to repent."

At this, Ariadne made a playful expression. "Perses was prophesied to lose the Golden Fleece and be killed by his relatives. To evade this prophecy, he will take advantage of the chaos to overthrow Aeetes and become the new king."

"Then, returning to Colchis, Medea, upon learning of this news, will conspire with her child Medus to kill Perses, seize power, and make the prophecy come true."

After listening to the Goddess of Wisdom's explanation, Ash couldn't help but grumble: "So... Medea's departure is actually a good thing?"

"Yes."

"If Medea were taken away, her father and brother would be able to continue living after being overthrown, waiting for the 'prophecy' to be fulfilled."

Ariadne nodded and said, "If we don't take her with us, she, with her beauty and magical talent, will become the biggest catalyst for the internal strife."

"not to mention……"

Ariadne changed the subject, "Hercules still needs the help of this witch."

"what?"

Seeing his sister suddenly call his name, Hercules asked in confusion, "How can this Princess of Colchis... help me?"

"I didn't speak to you."

Ariadne said unreasonably, "You have nothing to do here, go back to the cabin!"

"Oh……"

Hercules, who was suppressed by his blood, scratched his head in embarrassment and returned to the cabin in a sullen manner.

"Hercules did not know that his madness had not yet disappeared, but was only dormant."

After Hercules left, Ariadne whispered, "His [madness] requires treatment by someone proficient in magic."

"what do you mean……"

Ash looked at the unconscious Medea and asked Ariadne, "Can she cure Hercules's [Madness]?"

"Yes."

Ariadne continued, "Although I can heal Hercules, it would be more in line with the treatment process if Medea were to do it. After all, she was the one who was destined to heal Hercules."

"I see……"

Hearing this, Ash understood the Goddess of Wisdom's thoughts, "If that's the case, then we do have reason to take Medea away."

"So... I tied it right?"

Seeing that Ash had accepted the idea of kidnapping Medea, Aphia immediately jumped out and said with a smile, "Ash, Ash, I want a reward~"

Ash complained speechlessly, "Why were you pretending to be dead and not talking just now?"

"That's because I don't want to interrupt the discussion between you and Ariadne, Ash~"

Afia said with a grin, "Now that you've finished your discussion, it's time to give me my reward, right?"

Damn it, you pretend to be dead when you make a mistake, and then start taking credit when everything is fine. Artemis, have you really become Hakimi?

"Go, go, go."

Ash kissed Luna Meowth's forehead and said, "Even though you did the right thing this time, don't act on your own next time."

"I know~"

Having tasted the sweetness, Moon Goddess Meow responded to her beloved's request with a smile, and said happily, "I will pay attention."

The Moon Goddess Cat is happy, but the Goddess of Wisdom is not.

"what about me?"

Ariadne hugged Ash's arm and said sourly, "I've been explaining for so long...but hasn't it been helpful?"

"I kidnapped Medea, and I can also predict the future!"

Before Ash could say anything, Luna Meow, who was enjoying the pat on the head, stepped forward and stopped the sisters from asking for rewards, "Ariadne, don't try to steal the credit."

"How can I..."
