I really didn't want to burn it.

"Senior, don't let Li Ang catch your illness!"

Mashu complained as she pulled Ritsuka to a corner to block her view.

Unfortunately, this posture, though unsightly, is the best way to block Hermes' attack.

Hermes was so fast that even Mash, a Demi-Servant, couldn't keep up with his speed.

This guy is like Quicksilver or the Flash from superhero comics; everyone can only see his afterimage, but can't keep up with his speed.

"Hahaha, Chaldea, can you keep up with my speed?"

Hermes mocked as he tried to get closer to Ritsuka.

Ding!

A chain appeared in the void, attempting to trip Hermes, but fortunately, he braked suddenly and stopped in front of the chain.

"Aren't you cheating?"

Hermes said to Enkidu with displeasure.

"That's strange. Aren't you the god of deception?"

Enkidu tilted his head, looking at the other with the innocent eyes of a little white rabbit, but the chains in his hands did not stop, coiling towards Hermes.

"Hmph, I'm still the God of Sophistry, no matter what I say, I'm right! Hahahaha!"

Hermes dodged Enkidu's chains while letting out a wild laugh.

"This is so noisy... This is the noisiest guy I've ever met, even louder than Gil." Enkidu frowned in disgust. "I'm going to shut you up!"

"Hahahaha! If you can do it, give it a try! Hahahahaha!"

Hermes ran and laughed, his manic laughter filling the entire Golden Hind.

--------------------------

"Hmm... it was still a bit too much of a stretch."

Feeling that his right hand was about to be ruined, Li Ang endured the pain and opened his eyes.

"Are you awake already?"

What came into view was her long, bright golden hair and her pretty face looking down at her from above.

"Is this the legendary lap pillow?"

Li Ang forced a smile.

"That's right, it's still Lady Beauty's lap pillow. How does it feel?"

Aphrodite asked proudly.

"Well..."

Li Ang touched Aphrodite's thigh with his still-functioning left hand, and then commented very seriously.

"Although it's soft and fluffy, making it perfect as a lap pillow, if we're just talking about the thighs, I think legs as firm as Athena's would feel much better to touch... Ouch!"

"Li Ang! You can die a thousand times over!"

PS: When I was little, I always thought that the Greek sun god was Apollo.

Therefore, after learning that the Greek sun god should be Helios, I felt that I had been a complete idiot.

However, while writing this book, Mi-chan specifically researched related materials and discovered that even the ancient Greeks themselves didn't really understand it. 2333

Especially in the later period of ancient Greece, Apollo was the primary deity worshipped as the sun god.

Therefore, later generations created many myths, such as Helios abdicating and Apollo succeeding him, to facilitate the transition.

Actually, it was purely the ancient Greeks themselves who got confused. (* /ω＼*)

Apollo does indeed possess the attributes of a sun god, but this is very similar to the situation of his sister Artemis.

Although he was worshipped as a sun god, Apollo was most accepted by the Greeks as the god of art.

Perhaps from our perspective, it seems strange to prioritize art and hunting while relegating powerful forces like the sun and moon to secondary roles.

From the perspective of the ancient Greeks, perhaps art and hunting were so intertwined with their lives that they were far more important than the sun and moon. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

Chapter 70 The Lament System: Host, do you really like the Ocean Goddess family that much?

"How long have I been in a coma?"

While healing his wounds, Li Ang asked Aphrodite a question.

"It will probably take about 5 minutes."

Aphrodite rolled her eyes at Li Ang, a slightly teasing smile on her face.

"However, I did get some interesting information. It turns out that while someone was unconscious, they kept muttering their grand plan."

"How could that be! Don't try to fool me, I never talk in my sleep."

Li Ang rubbed his newly recovered right hand and complained.

“Well, I pretty much knew that from seeing you kill Ares.” Aphrodite stroked her chin, pretending to think.

So, which side are you planning to take?

"Compared to these issues, what are your plans for dealing with us?"

Aphrodite didn't respond to Leon's words, but instead questioned him in return.

"I am not a god of slaughter. Once the Zeus system collapses, all I need to do is maintain stability."

Li Ang deliberately avoided giving an answer that targeted any particular person, only providing a very general response.

"You bastard, do you think I'm all looks and no brains?!"

After a moment of silence, Aphrodite glared at Li Ang with feigned anger.

If Zeus's rule collapses, doesn't that mean that the main gods of Mount Olympus will basically have to be replaced?

"It's gotten this far, can't you just be honest? Aren't we friends?" Aphrodite muttered angrily, arms crossed. "I shouldn't have bandaged you up."

"This one……"

Li Ang noticed that a section of Aphrodite's white dress had been torn off.

He now understood how he got the bandage on his right hand earlier.

No wonder I touched the top of her thigh just now...

The eternally 20-year-old lep Li Ang suddenly regretted removing the bandages before healing.

But now that Aphrodite has already caused a ruckus, it would be utterly perverted for him to put the bandages back on.

After struggling with the decision for a long time, Li Ang could only lower his head and apologize: "I'm sorry."

"Humph."

Aphrodite crossed her arms and snorted coldly.

Li Ang awkwardly touched his nose.

"In short, you can stay here. No matter who wins between me and Zeus, you will still be the chief god of Olympus in the end."

As he spoke, Li Ang braced himself on his knees and prepared to stand up.

"Well……"

As Li Ang stood up, he felt a wave of dizziness and weakness. Just as he was about to lose his balance, he was embraced by a soft body.

"You still like to act tough!"

"No way! I just lay down for too long, which caused intermittent ischemia."

Li Ang tried to argue forcefully, but his body did not leave Aphrodite's embrace.

"Are you really going to fight your father?"

Aphrodite gently rested Leon's head on her shoulder and asked softly.

"of course."

Li Ang nodded.

Seeing Aphrodite's worried expression, Li Ang could only gently stroke Aphrodite's cheek.

"Don't worry, I took down Ares so easily. Your father may be strong, but he's definitely not invincible."

Even so, Li Ang wasn't entirely confident, after all, he was facing a God-King far more powerful than he knew of at his peak.

“Ares?” Aphrodite shook her head helplessly. “That idiot didn’t even show his true strength.”

"Ares cares too much about winning or losing against you, so he actually chose to fight you one-on-one."

"It sounds like he's very good at gang fights."

Li Ang commented.

Aphrodite explained, "As the god of war, Ares' greatest power is to grant those who believe in him superhuman strength in battle. If he were not alone, but came with the armies of Troy or Sparta, you would understand why he is called the god of war."

"Sounds a bit like giving someone a berserk buff, pretty powerful." Li Ang shrugged. "Unfortunately, my [Solar Fist - Nuclear Fusion.v] deals ACE damage, so it doesn't matter how many people he comes."

"Didn't you keep talking about AOE? Why did you change it?"

“No, no, no, Aphrodite,” Li Ang explained, shaking his finger. “AOE is area-of-effect damage, while ACE is a team wipe.”

"Fine, you're the best."

Even Aphrodite herself didn't realize that a slight smile had appeared on her lips.

"Fine, go ahead and challenge Father if you want. Anyway, Athena is more important to you than me, right? You've always preferred young girls and disliked someone like me... a mature woman? In your words, that's the word, isn't it? You..."

Aphrodite, who was about to continue her tirade, suddenly stopped, finding herself tightly embraced by the man.

"you……"

Aphrodite felt a little breathless; she couldn't tell if it was because she was too excited or because Leon had used too much force.

At that moment, Aphrodite, who was in a daze, heard a man's deep whisper.

“It has nothing to do with your size, nor is it because Athena is more important than you; it's just that only Athena can bear that burden. You have always been my best female friend in Greece, and always will be.”

[So, just a female friend, not a girlfriend, right? Host, you jerk, you're playing word games again.]

"Li Ang, you're always so cunning."

Aphrodite sighed helplessly. Unable to raise her arms high, she could only extend two fingers towards Leon's waist.

"hiss……"

Li Angdon, wincing in pain, released Princess Beauty and rubbed his waist.

He discovered that the two-finger technique was indeed a move that all women would definitely learn without being taught.

"Fine, Aphrodite, now that you know my plan, it's too late for you to jump ship."

Leon gave Aphrodite a threatening look and patted her cheeks twice.

"Once Athena ascends to the throne, I will have the new God-King bestow you upon me."

"He said before that he didn't care which side I was on, but now he's acting like a robber."

Aphrodite pouted and complained softly, but there was a smile in the corner of her eye.

"Well, there's nothing I can do about it. Knowing too many of my secrets, you're just bound to my side."

Li Ang slowly stood up, took off his outer robe and tied it around Aphrodite's waist to cover her exposed thighs.

"Although these two hams are not perfect, I can't let others see my hams."

[Host, I must remind you, Aphrodite is both Zeus's daughter and Tethys's granddaughter. Are you determined that the Greeks will die in the Tethys family's hands? Then why not wipe out her daughters and granddaughters all at once?]

"No thanks, my kidneys can't handle it."

Tethys claimed to have 3000 daughters, plus their granddaughters... Such a luxurious lineup would make even the lecherous Zeus tremble, let alone Li Ang, who was just an ordinary eternally 20-year-old boy.

[Young man... host, you are truly shameless, you've amputated the mother of shamelessness on the spot—sawing off (giant) the mother of shamelessness.]
