Type-Moon, I heard that after death, you can ascend to the Throne of Heroes?

Therefore, there is no mention of the painting skills that have surpassed Chiron and even won him a graduation award.

Nuoyan learned the art of playing the lyre from Orpheus, learned medicine from Asclepius, the god of medicine who would be able to revive the dead in the future, and learned hunting techniques from Meleager, who would lead the hunt for the Calydonian boar in the future.

Not to mention learning swordplay from Theseus and archery from Hercules.

And also because of this, Nuoyan has a good relationship with everyone, so good that every time they go down the mountain, they have to grab Nuoyan's neck and carry him to the door of Chiron, asking him to keep an eye on Nuoyan before they can go down the mountain with peace of mind.

Otherwise, where did Nuoyan's little notebook full of grudges come from?

In the end, only Jason was fooled and took him down the mountain!

This was also the reason why Chiron ran down the mountain in secret and only left protection on Nuoyan.

Although there is no discrimination in teaching, who wouldn’t like to meet a student who is willing to learn and listen to everything?

I can only say that if he didn't seek death, he would be perfect in Chiron's heart!

......

At this moment, the river goddess Aegina, who was slightly stunned by Nuoyan's answer, looked at Nuoyan with a softer gaze.

It might have even been reached, if he hadn't been afraid of the gently swaying scales of judgment beside Nuoyan, and the unknown when Athena and the others would return.

Aegina had already, on a dark and windy night,...! ! !

Just when Aegina had this thought, the scales of judgment beside Nuoyan shook a little more violently, scaring Aegina so much that she quickly stopped thinking, lowered her head and obediently served as a model, allowing Nuoyan to draw her on the canvas.

And Nuoyan also drew it very seriously.

After all, he still remembered that in his legendary story column, there was an achievement called "Painting dedicated to Athena".

This must be given to all the Olympian gods!

It’s a pity that now they are all newly created blank folders.

At the same time, Nuoyan has always cared about the feeling of enlightenment when he drew Athena.

So facing this goddess who was willing to be his model, Nuoyan naturally put his utmost effort into it to see if he could recreate the original feeling.

The result was that Nuoyan realized that he had overthought.

I can only say that inspiration is something you can only encounter but not seek!

After three days and three nights,

That evening.

When the blue sky is painted into dusk by the setting sun.

After throwing away countless drafts, Nuoyan finally drew a relatively satisfactory portrait and presented it to Aegina.

To be honest, Aegina couldn't tell the difference, and she felt sad when she saw Nuoyan's discarded paintings, thinking that every one of them was beautiful.

After all, those paintings were all of her.

Even when Nuoyan was finally finished, she felt happy but also a little regretful.

Because during these three days, the promise he made while drawing seriously not only made her unable to take her eyes off, but also because during these three days, he only looked at her...

Thinking of this, Aegina couldn't help but look at the shaking scales of judgment beside Nuoyan again, and lowered her head in disappointment.

"Well, Goddess Aegina, is my painting not good enough?"

Seeing this, Nuoyan said with some confusion and nervousness.

The river goddess Aegina was so panicked after hearing this that she didn't have time to answer.

"Of course it's not that your painting is not good enough, but the ugliest desire emerges from someone's heart..."

The familiar, elegant and pleasant voice reached Nuoyan's ears.

As Nuoyan tilted his head with a slightly surprised look.

The goddess of wisdom Athena, with her beautiful silver hair falling to her waist, and the goddess of justice Themis, who was dressed in a white robe with her eyes covered with white cloth, and was meticulous except for the beauty mole at the corner of her mouth that added a bit of charm to her, returned here together.

Aegina immediately lowered her head in fear at their return.

Athena glanced at her lightly and ignored her.

Because Aegina was not qualified to be ridiculed by Athena.

Even though Aegina dressed herself up to her best, when Athena stood beside her, she was not even a supporting role.

Then Athena smiled faintly and came to Nuoyan.

"Are you okay? Are you okay?"

Athena asked Promise.

"Yes, no problem, Goddess Athena..."

Before Nuoyan could finish his words, his mouth was stuffed with something... Athena skillfully stuffed the golden apple into his mouth, hoping that he would not be blown to the underworld by the wind.

After watching Nuoyan take two bites of the golden apple, Athena picked up the painting from Aegina's hand with confidence, took a look at it, and then turned around and said.

"come together."

After saying this, Themis put away the scales of judgment, touched Nuoyan's head, and took him out of the room.

The moment the man and the three goddesses stepped out of the tower, Nuoyan felt a flash before his eyes and arrived at a small river not far from the kingdom.

Standing beside the river with the sunset glow hanging high in the sky, holding the painting in her hand, Athena tilted her head to Nuoyan and asked, "Nuoyan, do you think that this ordinary canvas of yours and the brush in your hand are really qualified to depict the figure of a god on it?"

Nuoyan was stunned when he heard this. He had never thought about this question before.

After all, he had only painted two gods so far, one was Athena and the other was the river goddess Aegina.

“In fact, when you paint our bodies on the canvas, we know it… The more you paint it, the stronger our perception will be.”

“Even when you are painting, it is like praying to us. We can clearly feel your presence.”

Back then in Jason's hometown, Athena suddenly appeared beside Nuoyan because she noticed that Nuoyan was drawing her and became interested.

"At the same time, I'm telling you one thing, Promise. That is, every god you have drawn so far is actually not ordinary."

As she spoke, under Nuoyan's somewhat confused gaze, Athena chuckled and threw the painting of Aegina in her hand into the air.

"Because no matter it was me or this Aegina's painting, you got our consent and approval before you painted it. Therefore, what you have been painting is not an ordinary portrait, but... a real god!"

At this point, the painting that was flying into the air began to disappear little by little, turning into faint starlight and dispersing.

“So your canvas can engrave us, precisely because we want you to stay, it represents our gaze on you.

And when you really need it, you can use it to connect with the gods, and then we will naturally respond to you and give you... a gift through this painting!"

When Athena finished speaking, the painting in the sky completely disappeared.

At the same time, Nuoyan felt an inexplicable force.

Pulled by that force, Nuoyan subconsciously looked at the river beside him.

The next moment, as his thoughts progressed, the river water formed a column and rose into the air.

The river goddess Aegina, standing by, watched all this with a smile...yes, this is her power.

At the same time, this is also the reason why Athena has not dared to tell Hera that the painting she showed to all the gods was actually drawn as a promise.

After all, a painting like that is actually a gift from God.

Through it, you can not only pray to the gods for blessings, but when necessary, the gods can even rely on it to come directly to you.

This is a gift that can only be given to a child that you truly love.

Therefore, as long as Hera knew that the painting of Athena was made by Nuoyan, she would instantly know another thing, that is, Athena had evil intentions towards Nuoyan!

But is this the point?

Of course not. When Athena told Nuoyan all this and Nuoyan felt the power from Aegina, he instantly understood one thing.

There is no doubt that this is the treasure he has been looking for for a long time!

A special treasure that belongs only to his promise!

When Nuoyan realized this, even his breathing stopped for a moment.

“But it is really too extravagant to lose a beautiful painting every time it is used. Moreover, since your canvas is too ordinary, even if we deliberately leave divine power, your painting will disappear little by little as time goes by.

therefore......"

Athena turned her head and blinked slightly at the dazed Nuoyan in front of her.

The corners of his mouth were drawn like a devil...ah, that's not right.

It is the most beautiful smile of the goddess of Athens.

And it is the most beautiful sound of nature, saying to the promise: "Do you want it?

Do you want a permanent painting of our gods, and a brush that can perfectly depict us on that canvas?"

"My cute little promise, do you...want it?"

Chapter 26: Is it too wasteful?

Praise the wise goddess Athena!

If the wooden bow that Promised had been in his hand when he went down the mountain, instead of being sacrificed to Queen Hera that night.

I believe that the promise at this time must be that you don’t mind breaking it by the river under the curtain and offering loyalty to the goddess in front of you!

But before the promise could be made,

"But even if you want to, you can only think about it now."

Athena’s face still showed the goddess’… ah, no, it was a devilish smile that teased people’s hearts, and she spread her hands and continued to say to Nuoyan: “Because I can’t make a divine weapon like that.

It should be said that only that one god in this world can do this."

Hearing this, Nuoyan was slightly stunned, then he realized something and said, "The God of Craftsmen... Hephaestus?"

Hephaestus, the god of craftsmen,

He is one of the twelve main gods of Olympus, the son of Zeus, the king of gods, and Hera, the queen of heaven.

As for Nuoyan saying the name of Hephaestus, Athena was no exception. After all, Nuoyan was a student of the Centaur sage Chiron, not to mention that Hephaestus already had a good reputation in the world.

She was still smiling, and even the corners of her mouth were raised a little more at this time, and she said to Nuoyan: "Yes, it is Hephaestus. Only he can forge the brush and scroll I mentioned, the painting that can truly carry our gods."

"Luckily, although he has a bad temper, like a volcano that can erupt at any time, he usually responds to the children's requests. But promise... you, are not among them!"

"why?"

Nuoyan asked subconsciously in confusion. After all, he had never come into contact with the God of Craftsmen until now, and he felt that he had not done anything to provoke him.

At this time, the river goddess Aegina, who hesitated for a while, said thoughtfully: "Could it be because of... Hera?"

After she finished speaking, Athena glanced at her, and she was so scared that she quickly lowered her head, not daring to look into the golden eyes of the goddess of wisdom in front of her, which could see through everything in the world.

"That's right." Then Athena nodded, the smile on her face softened, and she said, "Because Hephaestus hates Hera... To be precise, he probably hates Hera more than any other god!"

Athena did not explain the reason. After all, in ancient Greece, the Age of Gods, Hephaestus would definitely hear what she said. Although she did not care, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for Hephaestus to know things he should not know.

But even so, as a time traveler who knew the promise of ancient Greek mythology, he naturally still had some thoughts.

Just as Nuoyan was thinking about Hephaestus, the god of craftsmen, Athena suddenly turned her head and looked at the goddess of justice Themis, who was standing quietly in a white robe and had not spoken a word.

He took two steps aside to make room for her.

Then Themis came to Nuoyan's side. When Nuoyan noticed it, he subconsciously looked up at this dignified yet somewhat charming goddess.

"Nuoyan, are you willing to... accompany me?" Themis asked Nuoyan in her cold voice.

So Nuoyan followed Themis and left.

After the two of them left, the river goddess Aegina and Athena were the only ones left here.

Aegina stood next to Athena, looking very embarrassed and nervous.

Then Athena's golden eyes looked towards the kingdom on the side.

At this moment, the sunset has come to its final moment. The darkness and the stars are about to replace the ending sunset. Under the last rays of light from the sun, the people in the kingdom are still busy and noisy, and it seems very messy.

But Athena couldn't help but laugh.

Because she had seen the kingdom at its darkest, Athena thought this scene was indeed quite beautiful.

"Very good is your country," said Athena.
