I'm in Type-Moon, how can I let you bully me?

“Ehhhh!? Why…”

Jason finally realized something and his expression changed drastically.

"Sisyphus, save me!!!"

"There's nothing I can do."

This is a lie.

Russell was just happy to see this scene and was unwilling to take action.

While Hercules was preparing to have a good "talk" with Jason, Russell also began to look back at what he had gained during this period.

[Katniss: 58 (Enthusiasm)]

[Even though you were limited by the ingredients, the dessert you made still received her praise.]

However, it still hasn't broken through 60...

Russell was a little helpless. He didn't expect that it would be so difficult to win the favor of Katniss, who looked carefree.

Fortunately, Katniss shouldn't be as special as Hercules and Chiron.

The peak of favorability should only be 100?

Atalanta: 77 (confused)

[The only man she doesn't dislike, a lover who seems to believe in God, and all the buffs you have that can speed up the progress of your affection, Atalanta's feelings towards you are very complicated now.]

Complex, but more favorable than Katniss.

I didn't expect that Atalanta, who always seemed indifferent on the surface, actually had so many things in mind.

[Rank 1, Rank 2 Unlock]

Looking at this message, Russell was a little curious about Atalanta's skills.

but......

As the main god and also a huntress, Artemis is likely to cover most of Atalanta's rank.

With this thought in mind, Russell looked at the rank between him and Atalanta.

Rank 1. Pure Hunter: He appears in this identity in almost all of his stories.

That is - a huntress who swore an oath of purity to the Moon Goddess.

You are more likely to gain favor from the Pure Faction, and you are more likely to gain favor from the Hunting Faction.

You gain [Hunting] skills, making it easier for you to gain the upper hand in hunting.

Rank 2·Aesthetics of pursuit: Atalanta maintains such an aesthetic of pursuit—go ahead, I will turn into a gust of wind behind you and come out on top.

Letting the enemy take the initiative, and then taking action after confirming the enemy's actions, is the ability to strike later and arrive first.

Your foresight is improved, and your counterattack ability is enhanced.

A pure female hunter?

From time to time, Jason's screams could be heard in my ears.

But Russell didn't care. He just stared at Atalanta, thinking about her original fate, and said thoughtfully.

"Atalanta, what do you wish for after completing this journey?"

"me?"

Atalanta, who was asked this question suddenly, was confused for a moment.

During this period, Russell could be said to be fighting with her.

Atalanta was a little surprised by the sudden question, but after being confused, she still spoke frankly in a tone with complicated emotions.

"If this journey is complete and Lady Artemis is able to respond to my call, I would like to go... travel around and help some abandoned children..."

Because she herself is an abandoned child.

If I hadn't met Lady Artemis, I would have died in the wild, right?

Atalanta thought so.

Russell also thought of this and laughed.

"Sure enough, how could you not be popular with children like this?"

"No..."

Atalanta looked into the distance, with a hint of longing in her tone.

"I heard that there's a king in a distant land who has accomplished great things. He's known as the King of Children, the Protector of Children, and so on. I probably can't reach that level, but I still want to do my best..."

Why does it sound so familiar?

Russell's brow furrowed slightly.

Since the Holy Diver's [Reason] flowed out of the root, his clairvoyance naturally could not truly see the past, present and future.

Because the timeline is changing every minute, every second, and every moment. The world of the past, the world of the present, and the world of the future are all changing.

When the Holy Savior exudes truth, it is like stones falling into water, creating countless ripples.

Eyes can see everything when the water is calm.

But it is impossible to make everything clear among the countless ripples.

but......

This should be what happened during his time as Lugalbanda, but the story in Greek mythology doesn't quite fit the era in which Lugalbanda lived...

"You will do it."

After saying such affirmative words, Russell found that Atalanta's favorability suddenly increased.

Atalanta: 80 (Happy)

[Rank 3 Unlock]

Rank 3: Wild Instinct: Atalanta was raised in the wild and was breastfed by a mother bear. In a sense, she can think with the instinctive thinking of a wild beast.

When aiming to kill your opponent, your thinking speed increases and your physical fitness improves.

This is really...

Did the affection increase just by chatting?

Russell was a little surprised.

Atalanta, showing a rare shy expression, whispered, "Thank you."

34. You guys really made me suffer.

She could clearly feel that Russell's praise of her came from the bottom of his heart.

These are not words you would make up to win a girl's heart.

Even when fighting, the attitude is respectful and the praise comes from the heart.

This made Atalanta, who always felt that she "would not be loved or have children", feel favorable towards him.

"The atmosphere between you two suddenly became strange..."

Katniss, with her mouth full of food, spoke vaguely at this time.

"By the way, Jason's screams are getting louder. Do we really need to go check it out?"

"No, Jason is a man who can show wisdom in desperate situations. Hercules is just helping Jason into this desperate situation."

Russell was very calm about this, but what he said made people feel strange.

Katniss smiled and asked curiously, "Could it be that this guy has the ability to blossom into wisdom when in desperate situations, and you guys discovered this because of your testing?"

"You could say that?"

Speaking of which, Hercules' favorability has reached a new level.

[Hercules: 83 (familiar)]

[The change in favorability isn't actually due to a change, or fighting side by side, but simply because you've become more familiar with each other and understand each other better, so it naturally improves.]

[Rank 3 Unlock]

Rank 3: Master of All Weapons: There is no doubt that Hercules is an outstanding warrior who is proficient in all weapons. He has the qualifications of all six classes except Caster.

Your proficiency with all weapons increases, your [Martial Arts] improves, and it becomes easier for you to refine a new weapon skill.

You gain resistance to damage from all weapons.

Although it is a good rank...

However, compared to the power that continued to grow within him, it seemed to have no effect.

Fists seem to be the fighting method that suits him better.

At this time, Hercules had already returned from a secluded place carrying Jason.

Jason ached all over, but in front of everyone, he forced himself to cheer up and said with a smile, "I just listened to Hercules' earnest advice and decided that I can't stay on this island! The other side of my dream is still waiting for you, Master Jason!"

"Since you just called out for help, there's no need to force yourself to say such things after you come back, right?"

Russell chuckled as he looked at Jason, who could barely stand and only breathed a sigh of relief after sitting down.

Jason glanced at Russell with resentment, then held his aching body and sighed helplessly, "Anyway, this is how it is. It's not easy to get the heroes back. If we use force, I'm worried that some heroes will obey on the surface but run away in secret..."

"Just leave it to me."

Russell had already decided from the beginning what he would gain and what he would do on this island.

These women were sent to an invisible island that had transformed into the terrain of the underworld to serve as "witnesses" and "believers of the goddess" in preparation for the ceremony.

The reason why we didn't do it right from the start, but let these heroes go ashore first, is because...

There are many heroes like Jason who even left their own children behind.

After the Argonauts' voyage, these heroes would surely become famous, and because of the bonds between them and the crew, or the bonds between them and the children and women, they would not hesitate to publicize and restore the reputation of the Gorgon sisters.

So that it will not fall into the process of continuous demonization due to stigmatization.

"After all, you described me as the most resourceful person."

"...So, what's your plan?"

"plan......"

Of course it’s cheating.

Is this really some conspiracy?

[Medusa: 93 (Nostalgic)]

[Don't you feel bad for always deceiving innocent, loveless, and dark characters? ]

[Rank 1, Rank 2, Rank 3, Rank 4 unlocked]

Rank 1. Incomplete Goddess - Whether there was a mistake at birth or there was some kind of meaning behind it, in short, among the three sisters, only Medusa had a deviation.

Your divinity is slightly increased, making it easier to gain the favor of the goddess.

Compared to the complete goddess, is it lacking in improvements such as vitality and immortality?

Russell thought thoughtfully.

Rank 2: Knight's Reins - According to legend, the Pegasus horse emerged from the blood of Medusa.

You gain the ability to freely control all wild beasts and mounts except fantasy beasts and divine beasts, and can use your own blood as a medium to summon a Pegasus for transportation.

Rank 3 Monster Origin - According to legend, the monster Chrysaor, holding a golden sword, emerged from the blood of Medusa.

You gain the ability to freely control all monsters except those above Medusa's level, and can use your own blood as a medium to summon monsters to attack.

You are more likely to gain favor with monster factions.

Rank 4: Temple Ritual - Medusa can use rituals to seal her own abilities, absorb abilities from others, and even dissolve everything. This is her ritual as the [Demon of Transmutation].

You gain the ability to seal, enhance, weaken, and other abilities of your own, but this will have the side effect of reducing your divinity and increasing your monstrousness.

The higher the degree of self-control, the lower the divinity and the higher the monstrousness.
