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

Demeter smiled and stroked Ash's hair, saying gently, "The fact that you feel so guilty right now is proof that you can attract them."

"But... right now, I can't respond to their expectations, their love."

Ash couldn't help but ask, "This...what should I do?"

“You don’t have to take all the responsibility on your shoulders.”

Demeter smiled and said, "And I'm here, Mom."

"I'll go and convince Athena and Artemis. As for Hades and... Aelia..."

When Demeter mentioned the names of the two non-original goddesses, she gritted her teeth and said viciously, "You don't need to take these two disrespectful and shameless guys seriously."

"You can have offspring with them, but you are not responsible for them."

Demeter spoke viciously, as if facing two enemies, "Because they are not worthy of your responsibility!"

"It's better to say..."

Demeter thought for a moment and offered her own plan. "If you're not ready to start a family, you can try having children with them. They happen to be suited for this kind of thing."

What the hell?

Make a baby...try?

Although Hades... did say he was willing to create the Erinyes with me, and although the cow was willing to be the queen of the sea and create Beloit with me...

But, but.

If they really want to... I can just make it and try it out?

Is this kind of thing...really possible to try?

Ash's eyes widened, he couldn't believe his ears.

Because what Demeter said was too absurd, too strange, too abstract, and too outrageous!

If Ash hadn't been absolutely certain that the Demeter in front of him was indeed her, he would have even begun to suspect that he was under an illusion.

"that……"

After much thought, Ash couldn't help but ask Demeter, "Things like having a child and starting a family... is this really... something we can try?"

"Of course."

Demeter said as a matter of course, "The gods have the power to create children, so of course we can give it a try."

"Rather... Ash, you have an advantage in this area that most gods cannot match."

Demeter said, "The child you create will have a more complete personality and thinking circuit."

"But……"

Ash couldn't help but complain, "Don't you need love first to do that kind of thing?"

"Yes, that's your advantage."

Demeter smiled and said, "Your [love] can meet these prerequisites."

Seeing Demeter like this, Ash inexplicably felt as if he was talking to a deaf person, which made him think about what Demeter said, trying to find out the other party's true meaning.

After thinking for a while, Ash was speechless.

The reason why he was speechless was not that he could not find the answer, but that the gap between what Demeter said and what he thought was not as huge as that of heaven and earth, but at least it was not very relevant.

"Mother Demeter..."

Ash held his face in check and asked Demeter, "When you say creating a child, you don't mean... molding a clay figure and then adding divinity and personality to it... right?"

"correct."

Demeter said as a matter of course, "My two children with Poseidon: Arion and Despoina, are the subordinate gods we created through divine power."

"For example, Aphrodite's child Eros (corresponding to the Roman god: Cupid) was also a subordinate god created by her through divine power."

"For gods like us who possess composite divine natures, it is normal to separate out a portion of our divine nature, making it our own child to share our worries."

"It just so happens that those two guys don't like to work, and there's still some divinity that needs to be differentiated."

Demeter said, "Why don't you let Ash create children and try to start a family? Maybe those children will be more useful than their mother."

Wow... so this is how you create a child?

If I didn’t know, I would have thought it was some other, simpler and more crude way of making a baby!

"But even so..."

Ash couldn't help but ask, "Children like this... need to be responsible too, right?"

“Of course there is responsibility, but it can be done through affiliation.”

Demeter said, "If you are not satisfied with Hades and Elytia, you can turn the child into a god."

And this kind of operation?

Ash listened to Demeter's story in amazement, and once again understood the importance of the gods.

He even wanted to complain: Are you sure this is to make a child, not a figurine?

This kind of treating creatures as children and using them to build family relationships...why does it sound like a otaku playing house with the figurines he made?

Ash couldn't help but laugh and cry when he heard what Demeter said.

Oh, the power of [Love] that I inherited from Aphrodite is just enough to turn the figurines into living beings with complete personalities.

If that's the case... I think... I can really give it a try?

Oh no!

After thinking for a while, Ash keenly discovered an important problem.

"Um...Mother Demeter..."

Ash raised his hand and asked Demeter, "I think... I can create a subordinate god on my own, right?"

"correct."

"Hephaestus, the god of forging, is a subordinate god created independently by Hera."

After giving the example, Demeter said seriously, "However, I don't recommend that you create a subordinate god independently. This is prone to many mistakes and unexpected problems."

"I know."

Ash nodded and continued, "But I still want to try."

"It's not impossible to give it a try..."

Demeter said, "It just so happens that I'm here too. I can help you with the situation."

"But... have you decided what kind of child you want to have..."

Demeter asked, "Have you chosen a name for the child?"

"I figured it out."

Ash smiled and gave his answer, "Galatea, white Galatea."

That's right.

Ash felt that it was time for him to use his identity as Pygmalion, the King of Cyprus, to create the legendary Queen of Cyprus - Galatea!

Galatea my wife!

Chapter 71 Ares: Will win!

Ares remembered a dream he once had.

A tortuous and depressing dream that leads to light.

That is a predetermined destiny, a dream of the original future.

In that dream, Aphrodite, the most beautiful, purest, most intertwined with love and desire, and the most proud god in the entire Olympian fleet, fell in love with a mortal.

To him, this was not a trivial matter worth mentioning.

Falling in love with others, satisfying love and desire, and enjoying the most primitive joy of life are the natural privileges of God, and are also the grace and blessings bestowed by God in response to human expectations.

Even he had bestowed many blessings upon the world, enjoyed the so-called love, family affection, and maternal love, and had countless descendants.

However, it is at best just a moderate enjoyment, an entertainment far inferior to war and killing.

Although he looked down upon this so-called love, he did not despise Aphrodite for this.

Rather, he admired and had high hopes for Aphrodite.

Because she always stirs up human love and desire, making people immersed in it, turning them from obedient lambs into bloodthirsty beasts, and then triggering countless wars and disputes, allowing people to move forward from the chaos of war and onto a new level.

These deeds are undoubtedly evil deeds of gods in terms of so-called human morality and universal values, but these so-called evil deeds of gods are actually the outstanding features of Aphrodite!

If the goddess of love and beauty does not provoke fights and start wars, it would be trampling on her dignity and divine authority!

Because [love] and [desire] are two sides of the same coin, there should naturally be a brutal part.

The so-called "beauty" should not be a flower in a greenhouse waiting to be pursued and cared for by so-called civilized people, but should be the authority of a ruler to capture and seize the spirits and souls of others, and make humans and even gods bow down at one's feet!

If there is such a thing as competence among gods, then Aphrodite is undoubtedly the most competent god.

Even Ares, the god of war, had to admit that Aphrodite was more dedicated than he was, and was his best predecessor and colleague. Unlike the other mecha gods, she was the best god who would not limit herself to favoring humans and thus abandon her own dignity and personality.

This is the first time that such a competent god has come down to earth to have a so-called love affair, but it is just to enjoy the entertainment that a god should have and give himself a long vacation.

Rather, Ares supported Aphrodite in doing so.

He believed that the goddess who controlled "love" would not be harmed by "love" and turned from a ruler into a slave.

however.

How dirty and ugly is that so-called fate.

Ten years, twenty years, thirty years...hundreds of years!

Ever since the most outstanding goddess left Mount Olympus and came to the human world, she has never returned.

She granted the wish of Pygmalion, King of Cyprus, by bringing to life the statue of his beloved, making her his wife.

She satisfied the desire of Pygmalion's granddaughter Myrrha, allowing her to get her wish and marry Chenysis.

And she, Aphrodite, did all this just for the birth of the stain that inherited the power of [love] and [beauty]!

Ash Adonis.

Ares could not forget that tainted name.

If that man had simply won the favor of Aphrodite, given Aphrodite an unprecedented love, or even given birth to a child of love... Ares wouldn't have cared much, let alone called it a stain on Aphrodite.

But in fact, that man not only won the favor of Aphrodite, gained her body and mind, and gave birth to the fruit of their child, but he had no feelings for Aphrodite at all, let alone much care for her!

In fact, the reason why he was able to be with Aphrodite was not because he accepted Aphrodite's pursuit, but because Aphrodite imitated Artemis and dressed up as a huntress.

This damn man doesn't love Aphrodite at all, he won't listen to her advice, and he doesn't care about her feelings!

Even though the man was such a bastard, Aphrodite still stayed by his side, showing her love again and again.

Even though Aphrodite treated him like this, he remained indifferent, and even trampled on this love, and enjoyed the hunting behavior that pleased Artemis more.

When Ares saw this, he felt as if his heart was about to explode, and only endless anger remained in his mind.

Whose love do you think you are receiving?

You have accepted the love of the most worthy and beautiful god in Olympus!

For you, she would give up her responsibilities as a god, and even lose her dignity to pretend to be another woman to please you!

In the face of such love, your mind is full of yourself and thinking about that boring hunting?

What made Ares even more angry was that the hateful Ash was actually a human being demoted from a natural god, and could be said to be a scum among gods!

Ares' heart ached so much that it felt like it was bleeding when he thought that such a scum could actually receive such humble love from Aphrodite.

That feeling is like watching the most beautiful girl in the class fall in love with a last-place boy who doesn't do his job and is about to repeat a grade!

Faced with this situation, Ares simply couldn't stand it!

In order to restore Aphrodite to normal and turn her into the proud, ruthless, cruel and beautiful goddess she originally was, he would rather kill Ash who blasphemed her with his own hands and remove the stain on him!
