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

She smiled and said to Nuoyan: "Do you feel that you are one step closer to becoming a hero that everyone in the world knows and praises?"

"...Goddess Athena, it turns out you've always remembered it."

"Of course." Athena nodded and replied: "After all, this is our agreement... I will witness you become the shining star of this era, and at the end of your journey, I will prepare the most magnificent ending for you!"

"But the gift I give you today is not over yet."

Athena said, moving closer to Nuoyan.

As she hugged Nuoyan and the two of them pressed close together, her hand gently held Nuoyan's hand that was holding the reins.

"Let everyone in that kingdom tonight witness the moment you turn into the brightest shooting star in the night sky and fall to the earth."

Catching the silver meteor was the oracle given to Nuoyan by Athena. She told Nuoyan that as long as he could tame the Pegasus, he could defeat the wild boar of Calydon.

But what Athena didn't say at the time was that, in fact, ever since Nuoyan met Clotho, the goddess of fate, and walked all the way to the end of this trial, it was actually the moment when Nuoyan actually caught the shooting star!

Because before that, Nuoyan had already faced the angry moon goddess Artemis and changed the fate of Actaeon.

When facing Pegasus, he even broke the prediction of the goddess of fate about himself and created a future that the goddess of fate could not believe!

Therefore, from that moment on, the matter had come to an end.

The hunt for the Calydonian boar was no longer a test for the hero, but a reward from a goddess for the boy who had so longed to be a hero.

Let that young man become the center of everyone’s attention, and let his name spread widely in ancient Greece from then on!

The predictions of the goddess of fate are, in a sense, indeed accurate and cannot be changed, unless the god with the most special power in ancient Greek mythology intervenes.

Because the work of the three goddesses of fate is actually equivalent to writing a predestined program for the world.

But Nuoyan is the one who was abandoned by the goddess of fate but also favored by him.

Therefore, his fate was not completely certain from the beginning, but only a possibility.

In that trial that no one, not even the gods, believed in, but Athena was the only one who did. The real reason why Clotho, the goddess of fate, gave such a prophecy was that even if she looked into the future a hundred times, the ending of the promise was always fall, without exception!

In fact, even Athena's eyes could not see the future in which Nuoyan survived at that time. The future that she later showed to Clotho was the future that Nuoyan fulfilled, and she successfully captured it from countless possible futures.

Therefore, at this moment, Athena would sit on the Pegasus, stick close to Nuoyan, grab Nuoyan's hand, and hold the reins with him.

Then, under the gazes of the Calydonians who had been looking up and watching them, as well as several gods, at the highest point of the night sky, it turned into a setting star, falling in the direction of the Calydonian boar.

This Calydonian hunt, which was supposed to have dozens of heroes participating, and all the glory that would be passed down as future legends, is now given to just one person, Nuoyan!

So that night, everyone witnessed a meteor falling to the earth, and also witnessed the birth of a star.

"It's shocking, isn't it?" Atalanta suddenly said to Meleager, who was watching the scene from afar, "But... this scene is far inferior to the moment when he caught the shooting star a few days ago."

Atalanta, who said this, was the only human fortunate enough to witness the event with her own eyes at that time and under those circumstances, because of the moon goddess Artemis.

Meleager was silent for a while, then he laughed and said, "He is really about to achieve it... becoming a hero known to everyone in this continent."

"And then, it will end in a heroic way?"

After Atalanta said this, both of them were silent for a while.

After a while,

"In every sense, Teacher Chiron is really confused!" Meleager couldn't help but sigh.

"That's right." Atalanta nodded. For the first time, she reached a consensus with the man in front of her. She said, "Let him go down the mountain. Your teacher is really confused!"

"But in fact, it's mainly because of Jason!"

"Jason?" Atalanta tilted her head.

"That's right, only that idiot would bring the promise down the mountain... Beautiful hunter lady, if you meet him in the future, don't hesitate, you can just beat him up!" Meleager said to Atalanta with a serious face.

Atalanta thought about it, and finally nodded, saying, "Well, if we meet in the future, I will do that."

......

......

then,

Now on the other side.

"Um... so this is the end?"

That day, the horse Pegasus ran at full speed and turned into a falling meteor, rushing towards the Calydonian Boar on the ground.

Nuoyan got off the Pegasus and stood on the grass in the forest. At this moment, he was blinking his clear emerald eyes, looking at the Calydonian boar that had turned into a corpse in front of him.

Nuoyan couldn't help but look a little dazed for a moment.

After all, even at the end, he couldn't see the full appearance of the Calydonian Boar.

"Of course, after all, I'm on stage." Athena replied with a smile.

"So...the fate of Actaeon, Meleager and others has also come to an end?" Nuoyan hesitated for a moment, then looked at Athena in confusion.

"Well, everything is fine now, but I don't know what happened exactly." After saying this, Athena paused slightly, tilted her head, and looked far away at the temple of the goddess of fate.

"You still need to wait for the petite goddess of fate to come to you in person."

"That's it."

Hearing this, Nuoyan's expression eased, and he nodded and said, "Then I can finally rest assured. This way, I can continue to seek revenge on them and issue boat tickets... By the way, Goddess Athena, can I go see Hercules now?"

Nuoyan felt relieved and turned his head to look at Athena again. He naturally still remembered what Athena had said at the beginning, and Nuoyan was not an impatient person.

But after all, those were the twelve trials of heroes who would become famous throughout the world in the future.

And after transforming into a heroic spirit, you have twelve lives!

The requirements for the promise are not high. Just join three or four and you'll have a few more lives!

"Don't be anxious. Although your friend's matter is indeed over, don't you find that something is missing on our side?"

Looking at Athena who winked at him and then pointed to the moon in the sky to remind him, Nuoyan naturally reacted.

Painting of Artemis, the moon goddess!

If this problem is not solved, the willful goddess will not even wait until the heroic spirit is summoned to strangle him. She is ready to hunt him down and lock him in the small dark room now!

"So you still need to find..." Then, just as Athena was about to let Nuoyan go to find the god of craftsmen Hephaestus, and she would then help Nuoyan delay the moon goddess Artemis.

The words haven't been finished yet.

"Yes, the painting of Goddess Artemis, Goddess Athena. In fact, I have already thought about how to present that painting to Goddess Artemis!"

Nuoyan's eyes lit up and he interrupted Athena and said.

Athena was stunned when she saw this, because she was not unfamiliar with Nuoyan's appearance, and she remembered that every time Nuoyan showed such an expression and attitude, it seemed that some noise would come out...

"You mean, you can offer a painting to Artemis now?"

So Athena naturally became curious and asked.

"A painting engraved by a brush and canvas is indeed not good, but..." As he said this, Nuoyan looked up at the stars at night and said seriously: "If it is a painting engraved in the eyes and the world, I should be able to draw it now!"

"And thanks to you, Goddess Athena, I now meet all the requirements!"

With Athena feeling somewhat puzzled, Nuoyan continued, “Because of tonight, everyone in Calydonne knows me, and they all owe me a big favor!

That way, they will be able to help me with that special painting!"

Hearing this, Athena blinked her beautiful golden eyes and quietly swallowed the words she was about to say.

"Have you thought it through?" Then she asked Nuoyan seriously, "Are you really sure that the painting can satisfy Artemis and make her give up hunting you?"

"...No, I'm not sure." Nuoyan thought about it, and in front of the goddess, he finally shook his head, but at the same time he looked at Athena seriously and said, "But I think that painting is indeed the best painting I can make so far."

"If Artemis is not satisfied in that situation and still wants to hunt me..."

Nuoyan reached out and grabbed Athena in front of him, pretending to cry and saying, "Goddess Athena, I really can only rely on you!"

Seeing this, Athena, who was almost trying not to laugh, was just about to show her goddess side and comfort Nuoyan.

"Cough cough!"

A violent cough suddenly rang out.

The two of them turned their heads subconsciously and saw Queen Hera, who had come over at some point and whose face had turned completely black.

And beside him, Artemis, the moon goddess, had an innocent look on her face and blinked her blue eyes, and was obviously very curious about the painting that Nuoyan mentioned...

Eh?

Wait, I'm not Zeus!

This feeling of being caught by Hera is just like catching a mistress. What is going on?

Nuoyan came back to his senses from his daze, looked at Hera who was obviously angry, and then looked at Athena who looked a little embarrassed beside him.

I couldn't help but feel a little confused for a moment.

"Athena, you..."

Then, just when Hera was about to say something angrily.

"Ah, Hera, why are you here? That's right, you're just in time!" Athena interrupted her and greeted her with pretended joy, saying, "Did you see the performance of Nuoyan just now?

I believe that after tonight, his name will be spread across the continent. In this way, Hera, you will be able to gain more glory.

And Hera, did you bring the golden apples? I have used up all my golden apples. You know, Nuoyan is too delicate, just like a newborn baby. If he doesn't eat more golden apples, I'm really afraid that he will be blown to the underworld by the wind if he is not careful."

Not to mention Hera and Artemis, even Nuoyan who was standing by was stunned.

When he reacted, he looked at Athena with a strange look.

He finally understood why she didn't give him the golden apple last night. The feelings were gone... and although Nuoyan knew from the beginning that the golden apple belonged to Hera, he saw Athena asking for it and then giving it to him.

Nuoyan always felt that this matter was subtle and a little weird!

Hera, who had also come to her senses, looked at Athena who was walking towards her and speaking to her with a smile.

Hera was no longer angry, or rather, she was amused by her anger.

So she clasped her hands across her chest, raised her head slightly, facing the moonlight in the forest tonight, and her amber eyes gazed faintly at Athena in front of her.

Go ahead and act!

It's already this late, and you're still pretending that you're only doing good for me? Who are you trying to show off to?

Seeing this, Athena was stunned for a moment, then reacted instantly and looked at Artemis next to Hera.

At this moment, Artemis was concentrating on looking at Nuoyan, and out of curiosity she was even ready to go up and ask him what the painting they had just talked about looked like.

Then I noticed Athena's sharp gaze.

He was so scared that he hid behind Hera for a moment, and turned his head away, looking humble as if saying "I know nothing".

Seeing her like this, Athena naturally reacted.

This stupid goddess messed things up again!

So, he looked at Hera helplessly.

Seeing this, Hera's mouth corners rose a little, and then she slowly said, "Athena, I suddenly remembered some things now, for example, you were also present when Jason and Nuoyan's child happened...

In other words, you knew from the beginning, but you kept silent about it, that I mistook the promise for Jason...right?"

Ouch!

Athena has failed!

There is a melon! ...This is Nuoyan’s truest thought at this moment.

But before Nuoyan could start eating the melon with relish.

"Yes, that's right." Athena nodded and admitted it very straightforwardly.

"When did it all start?" Hera narrowed her eyes and said, "He was spying on the child, and he was thinking about snatching the child away from me!"

Nuoyan found that the melon in his hand fell to the ground with a snap.

His expression froze, staring blankly at Athena's back, then looking at Hera who was staring at her...

No, wait, wait, wait a minute, wait a minute!

The child you are talking about can’t be me!

Athena was very kind to herself,

This promise is naturally felt.
