The person was on the wrong ground, and Freya targeted him at the beginning!

"Are you sure? This is a commission to 'save the world'. If you succeed, you can be considered a 'hero'."

"Ha~"

Hearing the title "hero", Cao Ye immediately laughed, but his laugh was very disdainful.

This made him a little curious. In this world, not everyone can get the title of "hero". Over thousands of years, in human history, only a handful of people could be awarded the title of "hero".

Without exception, they all achieved "miracles" and did things that were originally impossible.

Especially in that chaotic period when the gods had not yet descended to the earth, the earth was ravaged by endless monsters. It was in such an environment that human "heroes" were born one after another.

"Brother, you are so sneerful, don't you believe me?"

"No, I just find this so-called 'hero' funny. To be honest, I really have no interest in heroes."

"You don't want to be a 'hero'?"

"In no mood!"

Without hesitation, Cao Ye gave an accurate answer.

Heroes are a group of people who burn themselves to light up others, but it is not an exaggeration to say that Cao Ye is selfish.

Cao Ye had respect for those legendary heroes, but saying that he wanted to be a hero was a joke. Which hero was like himself?

"It seems like you really don't have any feelings about 'heroes', little brother."

"No way~"

Staring at Cao Ye, the yellow-haired man rubbed his chin back and forth slightly. He looked at Cao Ye, hesitantly, not knowing how to start the conversation.

The other party didn't play by the rules at all, and all the words I prepared were wasted.

"Hermes? Is that you?"

Suddenly, a "familiar" voice sounded, and Cao Ye subconsciously turned his head to look. A goddess with a childlike face was walking towards him, and she called out the name of this familiar guy at a glance.

Hermes, this is not a human name, but the name of God.

In "The Wrong Place", Hermes can be regarded as a god behind the scenes. He is a god of fun, but also a very scheming god.

Chapter 136: The protagonist has not yet arrived, and the prologue of the theater begins!

"Hermes?"

"Hestia, have you descended to the underworld?"

The person who came was none other than Hestia, the absolutely legal loli god. She was also a goddess whose body proportions were even more perfect than those of a mature woman except for her height.

"Well, I just went down to the world~"

Time is meaningless to the gods. After all, the passage of time has no effect on them.

Therefore, although she has been in Orario for some time, for Hestia, she has indeed 'just come to the world'.

Hermes, on the other hand, looked at Hestia with some surprise.

In the heaven, Hestia is definitely a famous "home goddess". She never leaves the house. The reason why she is coming down to the mortal world now is probably because she missed the previous wave of going down to the mortal world because she stayed at home.

"Hmm? You are~"

At this time, Hestia also saw Cao Ye being held by Hermes.

In an instant, memories from the recent past emerged, the child who made her feel "approved", the one who she would not let go even when she was drunk.

"Are you Cao Ye?"

"It's me, Goddess Hestia!"

Looking at Hestia, Cao Ye felt dissatisfied and a little regretful.

If I could have met Hestia at that time, I would probably choose her without hesitation. After all, among the gods that appeared in "The Witch", Hestia was definitely a special case.

She cares about her own family, especially the first one, beyond imagination.

The most important thing is that this is an ultimate legal loli goddess. Who doesn’t want to have such a goddess to give you benefits after coming back at night?

Unfortunately, he was unlucky. When he arrived in Orario, there was no news of Hestia.

Maybe he hasn't gone to the mortal world yet, or maybe he has gone to the mortal world but is just being a parasite at Hephaestus's place. Whatever the reason is, he and the other person have not met.

This was probably what was called "no fate". But I was doing well now, holding Freya's thighs, and even finally tasting the goddess's taste. It was a perfect ending.

This also greatly reduced Cao Ye's regret for Hestia.

When they met again, Hestia subconsciously looked at Cao Ye, and then Hestia discovered that the other party's emotions of "desire" and "expectation" for herself had disappeared, which made Hestia very confused.

It was just not long ago that the other party was extremely "desirable" for me, but how come it's gone the moment I turn around?

I embarrassed myself by getting drunk and now I'm like this, making me look like a clown.

"Why, Hestia, do you know this young man Cao Ye?"

Hermes looked at the man and the god who were in a somewhat weird atmosphere, and immediately revealed a wicked smile, as if he didn't see anything, and asked Hestia.

"I have seen it once~"

Hestia was sober now, and had calmed down after being scolded by Hephaestus several times, so she didn't do anything rash.

And now, Hermes' words fell into Hestia's ears, and it seemed that they were intentional.

Hestia knew Hermes well. She didn't believe that this guy didn't know about her affairs. This wicked guy must have done it on purpose.

Cao Ye, on the other hand, felt slightly relieved when he heard Hestia's words.

It was okay at the 'Hostes of Fertility' before, after all, it was just a tavern. But it's different here, we are on the main street, and the guild is not far away. If something happens here, it will spread throughout Orario very quickly.

"Is that so? What a pity! I originally thought that Brother Cao Ye would accept this commission for Hestia's sake. After all, this is a commission related to Artemis."

"About Artemis?"

Hearing the name 'Artemis', Hestia suddenly became curious. When she was in heaven, there were not many gods that had a good relationship with Hestia, and Artemis was one of them.

Moreover, both of them are 'virgin goddesses', which makes their relationship even closer.

When Cao Ye heard this name, he was slightly surprised.

In "Gekijuu", the plot about the goddess Artemis is probably the plot of the movie version.

But, the timeline has reached this point now?

You know, in the current Orario, the protagonist Bell has not appeared yet, and Hestia has never had a follower. Now the protagonist hasn't arrived yet, but the plot has already begun?

But it’s strange, why hasn’t Bell appeared yet?

"Not long ago, Artemis went to the Great Sea of ​​Trees to investigate something, and she sent back news not long ago that something unexpected had happened."

"There was an accident? Is Artemis okay?"

Hearing that there was an accident, Hestia was shocked and asked anxiously.

"Artemis is fine, but her family has been wiped out."

"what?!"

The entire clan was wiped out, that's utter annihilation. In Orario, even though adventurers die every day, no one has ever heard of a clan being completely wiped out.

Cao Ye, who was standing by, listened to Hermes' words and understood in his heart that this was most likely the plot of the theater version.

All of Artemis's family members were wiped out, and the goddess Artemis also met with an accident and was swallowed by a monster. If it was allowed to obtain the power of the gods, it would most likely lead to the destruction of the underworld in the end.

Although Cao Ye didn't know what Hermes meant by "it's okay", this matter would be troublesome if it was not handled properly.

After all, the protagonist hasn't appeared yet, and you start off in a theatrical version, so there's basically no point in relying on the protagonist.

"According to the information sent back, things are not looking optimistic. Recently, the number of monsters in the 'Great Forest' has been increasing, and they have even caused huge damage and impact to the surrounding area. If we can't handle it properly..."

Hermes did not continue to say the rest, but the others understood that if it was not handled properly, it could be a disaster.

"So, God Hermes came to me this time because he wanted me to handle this matter?"

"Yes~"

Being stared at by Cao Ye, Hermes still looked nonchalant.

"Why me? I'm just a level 3. Besides me, there are many level adventurers in Orario, including Ota from our clan. That is the ultimate weapon of Orario. Why don't you go find him?"

"Because you are a 'hero', brother Cao Ye. Miracles that ordinary people cannot achieve will be born in your hands."

"I told you, I have no interest in heroes or anything like that."

“Sometimes, it’s because you don’t want to be a hero that you end up becoming a hero.”

Looking at Hermes who seemed to be smiling, Cao Ye had an urge to give him a slap on the sole of his shoe.

The Riddler and others deserve to die without a burial place.

Chapter 137: Everyone agreed except me?

As if he could see Cao Ye's dissatisfaction, Hermes went on to say something.

"By the way, Freya has already agreed to this commission."

"The goddess agreed?"

Cao Ye was stunned for a moment, a little bit unbelieving. He had just come on base, and he was already tired of it? He wanted to give him a ride?

This thought was extinguished by Cao Ye as soon as it arose. After taking a look at Hermes who was smiling, Cao Ye had a guess in his mind.

In the original book, there are two "directors" behind the protagonist Bell.

One is Hermes. In order to enable Bell to grow into a new generation of "hero", he gave him tests and training again and again, allowing him to become stronger step by step.

The other one is Freya. It is no exaggeration to say that Freya is definitely Bell's biggest "benefactor".

Whether it was the "Minotaur Incident" or the later "Heretic Child Incident", Freya made a huge contribution behind it.

The former allowed Bell to get rid of the shadow of the "Minotaur", completely walk out of it, and grow significantly.

The latter, when Bell was about to be "criticized by thousands of people", asked the people of Freya's family to block the people of Loki's family, creating an arena exclusively for Bell.

By fighting with the "Cow Girl", Bell successfully escaped the fate of being almost cursed.

And it was this time that Hermes admitted that he was not as good as Freya, and his "arrangements" were arranged by Freya's "plan".

This time, Freya probably wanted to see Cao Ye's ability and strength.

After all, although Freya always indulged Cao Ye and even competed with Cao Ye, it did not mean that Freya was really in love with Cao Ye. It could only be said that she cared about Cao Ye.

"Since the goddess has agreed, I can't refuse this commission~"

Everyone agreed, and finally I was the only one left, which was great~~~

"Hmm~, if I had known I would have mentioned Freya's name directly at the beginning. As expected of a member of Freya's family, there is absolutely no doubt about her loyalty to the goddess."

Cao Ye glanced at Hermes. This guy definitely did it on purpose.

Hestia heard Hermes' words and looked at Hermes with some dissatisfaction. However, when she turned to look at Cao Ye, a hint of regret flashed in her eyes.

After all, I missed it. This excellent child is already Freya's child.

"Then God Hermes, can you tell me what this commission is?"

"certainly…… ……"

Then Hermes told everything.

It turned out that some time ago, the guild received news that some problems had occurred in the Great Forest, one of the three major secret realms in this world along with the dungeon.

In the sea of ​​trees, an abnormal situation suddenly occurred. The number of monsters increased dramatically, and there were quite a lot of them.

The Great Sea of ​​Trees are the ancient monsters that came to the surface in ancient times before the underground city was "restricted" by the Tower of Babel.

After being sealed in the extreme south of the continent, the ancient ruins turned into a "maze".

The Great Forest covers a vast area and is complex, so it is easy to get lost. In the end, the guild sent a mission to Artemis' family to investigate.

No one expected that this investigation would lead to the annihilation of the entire "Artemis Family".

Including the main god Artemis...

Now that something has happened, it naturally needs to be resolved, so Cao Ye was found.

However, after digesting all of this, I found that the plot was exactly the same as the original. Hermes must have hidden something, but it doesn’t matter anymore.
