I really didn't want to burn it.

"As long as I don't directly attack the gods, there won't be any problems."

"Claus replied lazily."

"You know, Mount Olympus has done a lot of dirty tricks on us over the years, so let's not judge each other. To be honest, the Titans are no less powerful than the Olympian gods, it's just that we're not interested in ruling the world."

"So after Zeus came to power, he made an agreement with the second generation of Titans that as long as they did not compete with him for the right to rule, he would not interfere with us."

At this point, a hint of sarcasm flashed across Chloris's face.

"This is probably what is called a curse. Only the lineage of the God-King has ever been keen on vying for power. But their control over the gods is getting weaker and weaker."

"My father's generation could at least be said to obey orders but not proclamations, but now I'm too lazy to even obey orders. When the next generation of Zeus takes over, it's likely that his decrees will not even leave Mount Olympus."

"So tragic?" Li Ang whispered in her ear.

Feeling an itch in her ear, Chloris impatiently slapped his head.

"Otherwise, why would Zeus be so keen to participate in the Trojan War? He wanted to show everyone the strength of Olympus and further expand the power of Mount Olympus."

PS1: Chloris and Athena's mother Metis are sisters, so they are aunt and niece.

However, their relationship in mythology is not considered close.

Because Chloris and Metis's mother was the ocean goddess Tethys, the mother of all sea and river goddesses, therefore... they had far too many sisters in their lineage—several thousand in total. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

PS2: I found a few character design images of Athena. Choose your favorite and use your imagination.

Actually, I was worried some of the pictures would get a 404 error, so I uploaded a few more. 23333

As for Aphrodite, Mi-chan hasn't decided yet. She was initially quite happy with Nero, but that character will be appearing later... so, Mi-chan will have to look around some more. (* /ω＼*)

PS3: Sunday's usual PY time, I recommend a book called "Type-Moon Greece, I Jason Will Never Be a Hero!", which happens to be a Type-Moon Greece book, check it out if you're interested.

Chapter 44 Li Ang: If a middleman doesn't make a profit, is he still a middleman?

"Zeus wants to expand the power of Mount Olympus? Is he out of his mind?"

Li Ang couldn't understand: "The current Troy is just a civil war within Zeus's family. How can such an internal conflict be shown?"

Chloris leaned against Leon's chest and whispered, "Of course, it's about gradually bringing most of the Greek gods under control, and then dealing with them one by one."

"Do you remember the story of 'Investiture of the Gods' that you once told me and them? What Zeus had to do was to keep expanding the scale of the war and bring in as many gods as possible."

"Good heavens, Zeus wants to be Shen Gongbao? His head isn't crooked."

While Li Ang was complaining, his hand had already slipped under the skirt and touched Chloris's smooth, white thighs.

Chloris groaned in dissatisfaction and nudged Li Ang's stomach with her elbow, signaling him to tone it down.

"Isn't Zeus afraid that humans will stop worshipping him and start worshipping other gods instead?"

Li Ang shamelessly pressed himself against her again, embracing the goddess from behind once more.

“We Greek gods are not worshipped gods, and humans have never been necessary for us.”

"It's just that human worship satisfies our vanity, so when humans ask us for help, we'll help them depending on our mood... Also, where are you touching?"

The goddess tried to grab the man's smooth hand, but instead, the man grabbed it instead.

"Don't make trouble."

Leon whispered in Chloris's ear.

The goddess rolled her eyes. Who's causing trouble here?

"Tell me again why Zeus is so fearless."

Chloris looked up at the sea and explained to Li Ang in a helpless voice.

"It's very simple. Since God doesn't die, we have no problem with lifespan and we can't be killed. Human faith doesn't make us stronger or weaker."

"That's why Zeus is so fearless and has no bottom line, because he simply doesn't care."

"You won't die? But..."

Li Ang had a flash of inspiration; he suddenly knew how to deal with this singularity.

"You really won't die?" Li Ang pressed his cheek against Chloris's and asked again to confirm.

“Of course, do you want me dead?” Chloris replied unhappily.

“Of course not, I asked that precisely because I was afraid you would die.” Li Ang kissed Chloris’s forehead. “I always thought that gods could be killed because I’ve seen such scenes.”

Chloris giggled, her body relaxing again as she leaned against Leon's chest as if she were about to fall asleep.

"Those must be gods from other places. Our Greek gods are immortal."

"This is why the succession of the gods has always been a process of sealing and suppression. If gods could be killed, Zeus would not have imprisoned his father Cronus in Tartarus in the underworld."

"Yeah, thank you."

Li Ang was very satisfied with the answer, and he smiled very happily.

"no need thank me?"

Chloris looked up strangely; she felt there was something wrong with the man.

"Thank you for everything."

Li Ang laughed, leaned down, and greedily kissed the goddess's lips.

Chloris lowered her eyes quietly, responding to her man.

……

When Li Ang walked into the cabin conference room while wiping the kiss marks from his lips, everyone else was already waiting for him.

DD frowned the moment Li Ang walked in, because she smelled a faint floral fragrance.

"Too slow, Mr. Li Ang."

Mashu complained to Leon.

Li Ang rambled on and on: "Mashu, this old monk sacrificed himself to feed a tiger for intelligence, and this is how you repay me?"

Seeing Li Ang's nonchalant attitude, Mashu instantly lost her temper.

"Mr. Li Ang! If you keep spouting nonsense, I'll have Miss DD stab you in the back with a dagger!"

"Sorry, sorry."

Seeing that Mashu was really angry, Li Ang quickly apologized.

Drake tapped the table: "So, young man, did you manage to get anything out of that goddess?"

Previously, Li Ang had secretly hinted to others that there might be something wrong with Chloris's sudden joining of the trip.

Li Ang instructed the others not to alert Chloris, and to find a way to extract information from her.

At the time, Romani wondered why Mashu and the others didn't go and ask, but instead had to do it with Leon.

"This woman has been lying to me about being a goddess for almost 10 years; she's a complete fox spirit. Do you really think Mashu and the others can get anything out of her?"

Li Ang used this sentence to directly shut down Romani.

However, all of this was just Leon talking nonsense. His purpose in doing this was to plant the seeds of distrust towards Chloris in the hearts of the Chaldea group.

The reason is simple: Leon doesn't want Chaldea to be too open with Chloris.

Therefore, without affecting the overall situation, Leon spread rumors in front of the Chaldeans, telling them that Chloris was not trustworthy.

When facing Chloris, he used his advantage of having a higher favorability rating in her heart than Chaldea to imply that she should keep her distance from Chaldea.

As long as the information between the two parties is not fully shared and Li Ang is relied upon as a messenger, Li Ang can obtain the greatest benefit from it.

Just like the news he heard from Chloris on the deck just now.

However, this news was far too important, so Leon did not intend to share it with Chaldea.

"Sorry, although I tried very hard to pry any information out of her, I still couldn't get it," Li Ang said casually, shrugging his shoulders. "That woman is not easy to fool; she has been deceiving me for so many years."

Drake retorted, "I think you're completely lost in the allure of a beautiful woman, aren't you?"

Li Ang raised his eyebrows: "I don't deny that we were intimate, but how can we maintain our relationship if we don't? You know we haven't seen each other for hundreds of years."

Vlad III began, “Let’s stop with the idle chatter. Gentlemen, let’s get down to business.”

Drake spoke first: "We can't waste all our time looking for that Enkidu Servant. The situation in Troy will only get worse every day."

“If we want to deal with the Greek gods, Enkidu’s Chains of Heaven are absolutely necessary.” Li Ang glanced at everyone present. “In that case, after we get to Sparta, we will split into two groups. One group will go ashore to find Enkidu.”

"Ahem, I'll take care of this task."

The commander accepted the task while coughing.

"Can you, a sickly person, really handle this?"

“No problem. Staying behind for direct combat isn’t my forte,” Souji replied. “If that Heroic Spirit is really as rumored, I should be able to persuade him to join us.”

Li Ang did not reject the chief commander's suggestion because what she said was indeed reasonable.

But if only Souji leaves, Li Ang feels it's not enough.

Having formed his own ideas, he was even more reluctant to let Chaldea intervene in the Trojan War too early.

Drake is definitely out of the question, Mashu is impossible, and as for Shizuka...

Although Li Ang really wanted to kick this little third wheel who was interrupting his and Chloris's intimacy out of the way, the other party would definitely not allow it.

Moreover, kicking out the two weaklings did not achieve the goal of reducing the team's combat effectiveness.

Therefore, the Grand Duke has decided that it will be you.

"Vlad III, would you be willing to come with Miss Okita?"

"I?"

"Yes, although Miss Okita is also a Heroic Spirit, ordinary people are definitely no match for her. But this is the Greek Age of Gods after all, and those monsters and gods are still active. It would be terrible if Miss Okita were attacked."

"Hey! You think I'm so useless?!" (＃`O′)

The commander's complaints had no effect, and Vlad III nodded, "I understand."

"Then I'll leave it to you. Enki is our trump card, please make sure you find him." Li Ang deliberately lowered his tone.

"Please rest assured, Lord Leon, the search for Enkidu will be handled by me and Miss Okita. However, regarding you..."

"We will use the Golden Hind's maneuverability to sail around the Mediterranean in search of other people who can help us fight against the gods."

Li Ang gave no one else a chance to think and announced directly.

"There are many people in Greece who have been persecuted and influenced by the Olympian gods. The more we can unite these forces, the greater our chances of winning this war."

Are you sure those guys will listen to us?

"Of course, you can beat the disobedient ones until they become obedient."

Li Ang clenched his fists and said in a tone that said, "If I can't deal with the Supreme God, can't I at least deal with you?"

"They don't have the power of a supreme god; I'm more than capable of dealing with them."

"Want to fight? Hahaha! I like it."

Drake laughed heartily; Li Ang's "Open the door, FBI!" tactic suited her taste perfectly.

Next, the group made arrangements for the details of the plan.

At the end of the meeting, Li Ang suddenly asked Romani, the Chaldea telecommunications specialist, a question out of the blue.

"Dr. Roman, can the Greek gods be killed?"
