Hera hadn't finished speaking yet.
"The Trial of the Golden Fleece." Athena's golden eyes quietly looked at Hera, who was stunned for a moment, and said, "This is the trial you gave me in the beginning, and this is the real reason why Nuoyan went to find his friend Orpheus.
And Hera, don't forget that this is a marriage you promised to Hades. That was the original judgment of the promise, and...he is still your believer."
Hera was silent.
Her amber eyes looked at the calm Athena in front of her, and then at the goddess of justice Themis who was standing in front of her with her eyes covered with a white cloth.
His face became increasingly ugly.
Hermes on the side did not speak at this time. He was quietly moving his body, and at the same time glanced at the moon goddess Artemis who was still blinking and watching the show excitedly, and curled his lips in disdain.
Hermes knew he had to run.
Because the atmosphere here is becoming more and more solemn,
Perhaps even the goddess of wisdom, Athena, was really unsure in her heart whether this trial would really be the fulfillment of her promise.
Although her expression remained calm, her face no longer had the usual relaxed smile that seemed to indicate that she had everything under control.
"Athena, I can see clearly at this moment."
Hera, who gradually calmed down from her anger... no, to be exact, she calmed down because of her excessive anger, and looked at Athena coldly.
“Even if that child no longer chooses me to be his goddess in the future, even if he later chooses the goddess of fate, or even Themis, I won’t say anything.
But only you, Athena...I will never hand that child over to you!"
Hermes swallowed his saliva. He felt that the melon he ate today was a little too big and he felt full.
Then just as he was tiptoeing to leave quietly.
"Hermes, where are you going?"
Athena called him and gave an unusually bright smile to Hermes, who was frozen all over.
......
......
Three nights later,
On a night when everything was silent, the goddess of night, Nyx, covered the sky with darkness and stars. In the depths of an ancient forest, she purposely built a temple in a dangerous place.
The future goddess Persephone, Queen of the Underworld, was sitting by the window, blinking her beautiful eyes, gazing at the stars in the sky with a sad look.
Not long ago, she had a big fight with her mother Demeter.
The reason is simple. When Hera was looking for Hades' bride, Persephone stepped forward, and her mother Demeter knew about it.
So from that day on, Demeter forcibly brought Persephone to this temple and imprisoned her.
Outside the temple are all kinds of strange plants, and those plants are the eyes of Demeter, the goddess of agriculture. She can know who comes here no matter who comes.
In front of the gate of the temple, there were two terrifying beasts squatting. They were a pair of lions as tall as giants. They crouched at the gate of the temple, obeying Demeter's orders and preventing any living creatures from breaking in.
At the same time, he guarded Persephone and would not let her leave.
"......well."
Persephone looked out into the night and sighed deeply.
She didn't know how long this would last, and Persephone was worried that the whole thing was getting worse and worse.
On one side is her lover Hades, god of the underworld, and on the other side is her mother Demeter.
Just as Persephone was looking blankly at the night sky.
She suddenly felt that there was something strange in the room.
"Who?!"
Persephone suddenly tilted her head and questioned loudly.
Seeing that there was no one there and it was not the nymph who served her who had barged in, Persephone was frowning, but then her expression became surprised as if she had thought of something.
He quickly stood up, looked around, and said happily: "Hades, Hades, is that you, are you here to see me?"
Apparently, this isn't the first time.
Hades came to the human world from the underworld wearing an invisibility helmet, hiding his secrets from Demeter and having a tryst with Persephone.
But Persephone soon realized something was wrong, because when she met Hades, there was a secret code...
Just as Persephone realized this,
After arriving at her room and confirming her identity, Nuo Yan took off the invisibility helmet and appeared in the beautiful eyes of the goddess Persephone.
“Hello, beautiful goddess Persephone, my name is Nuoyan, and I am a student of the Centaur sage Chiron and a follower of the Queen Hera.
Because of the agreement with Hades, I have come to find you, and I will take you... to Hades, the god of the underworld."
Chapter 3 The Olympians are watching you (k)
Nuoyan looked at the goddess Persephone in front of him,
She was very beautiful, just as beautiful as in myths and legends, with slightly curly golden hair and a pair of beautiful brown eyes, and she was wearing a light silver dress.
And at this moment, Nuoyan's figure was reflected in her bright eyes.
Persephone blinked in surprise as she looked at the black-haired, green-eyed boy who had taken off Hades's invisibility helmet and appeared before her.
I was surprised at his appearance, and at the same time I was surprised that he was actually Nuoyan.
"Are you the one who promised, the follower of Hera, the Queen of Heaven?"
Persephone knew about the promise, not only because Hera had already shown him off to the gods, or because of the painting of Artemis, the moon goddess, that attracted the gods' attention.
Even more so because Persephone knew that if it weren't for the promise of the trial in the White Court, she and Hades would not have been given the marriage Hera had granted.
Nod of promise,
Seeing Nuoyan admit his identity, Persephone couldn't help but look at him with more curiosity... Admittedly, Nuoyan was by no means the most handsome man Persephone had ever seen, but he was the most 'comfortable' one at first glance.
The experiences over the past six months, which were also the carving of the promise by the goddess of wisdom, coupled with the embellishment of the natural artistic atmosphere, made the eyes of the goddess Persephone light up.
Such a cute and...such a delicate child!
Persephone held her breath, afraid that she could break her promise with just one breath. After coming to her senses, she immediately pricked up her ears nervously, listening to the sounds outside the door.
I was relieved when I was sure that no one had noticed.
She reached out her hand and carefully grasped Nuoyan. After letting Nuoyan get close to her, she lowered her voice and whispered to Nuoyan: "Child, did Hades ask you to come?"
Nuoyan nodded again, and at the same time, his emerald eyes were observing Persephone in front of him. In fact, the main purpose of Nuoyan's coming here was to ask her if she was willing to follow Hades to the underworld.
After all, Nuoyan still remembers the original appearance of this ancient Greek myth.
According to the myth, Persephone did not go there voluntarily, but was taken away by Hades by force and was kept there with pomegranate seeds from the underworld.
But maybe it was because Nuoyan changed the fate at the beginning and had half a year to buffer and deepen their feelings, Nuoyan found that the excitement in Persephone's eyes was not false, which made Nuoyan breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, if Persephone herself is unwilling to go, Nuoyan will have no choice but to commit suicide, and then leave it to Athena and Hera to deal with.
"Then can you take me away now?" Persephone asked excitedly again.
He shook his head at this promise.
Although Persephone felt regretful, she was not surprised when she saw the invisibility helmet in Nuoyan's hand... If it could take the two of them away quietly, Persephone would have gone to the underworld with Hades long ago.
So Persephone said she could understand, but then she couldn't understand the promise.
"I can't take you away now, Goddess Persephone, because in order to take you away, I must get the permission of the goddess Demeter."
When Nuoyan said this, Persephone was stunned for a moment, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Nuoyan suddenly became extremely strange.
She even reached out and touched Nuoyan's head.
"Well, child, don't you know that this matter actually..." After hesitating for a while, Persephone stammered and hadn't finished her words.
"I know everything."
Not only do I know this, I also know the future of this matter.
"The goddess of fate told me everything, and that's why I can't just take you away like this."
After saying this, before Persephone could continue to ask for details, Nuoyan looked at her and said in a calm and serious voice: "But goddess Persephone, please believe me, I will take you to Hades, even if I have to sacrifice my own life for it."
Persephone was stunned. Her first reaction was that Nuoyan was lying, and her second reaction was that she was surprised that Nuoyan was telling the truth.
Just when she was about to ask specifically what was going on, she noticed something and looked into the distance outside the window.
Then he said to Nuoyan anxiously: "My child, hurry up, my mother will be back soon. If she finds you and the helmet of Hades on you, she will definitely not let you go!"
Hearing this, Nuoyan was not panicked. He even took a look outside. After thinking for a while, Nuoyan nodded and disappeared in front of Persephone wearing an invisibility helmet.
Persephone turned and hurried to open the door.
Later, she called Nuoyan a few more times and found that Nuoyan did not respond. She then breathed a sigh of relief and thought that he had left.
But she didn't expect that Nuoyan had actually been standing in the corner of her room.
When he just met Persephone, Nuoyan had already done an experiment. Unless he made a noise on purpose, no one would be able to notice it.
Otherwise, the promise would not have come to Persephone so easily through the eyes set by Demeter, the plants all over the mountains, and the pair of giant lions guarding the gate.
After all, this invisibility helmet is a divine weapon of the same level as the thunder of Zeus, the king of gods, and the trident of Poseidon, the god of the sea.
Standing silently in the corner, Nuoyan didn't wait too long. About ten minutes later, he heard footsteps.
Soon, Demeter, the goddess of agriculture, wearing a ring-shaped crown woven with golden wheat ears and a braided hair, came here.
But when he saw the noble goddess in front of him, Nuoyan couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Because unexpectedly, she looked like a very gentle goddess, with a kind appearance and even very soft words, unlike the majestic Queen Hera.
After all, because of making the earth desolate in the future and imprisoning Persephone, Nuoyan has always believed that Demeter should be a very strict goddess.
"Persephone are you still mad at me?"
Demeter came to Persephone, she showed a slightly painful expression, looked at Persephone gently, and said to her.
Persephone turned her head away and did not speak to Demeter.
Seeing this, Demeter couldn't help but sigh and said, "I'm doing this for your own good... No matter what, I will never agree to it!"
After saying this, Demeter looked determined and turned away.
She knew that if she continued talking, it would only end in a quarrel with Persephone, and it had been like this for more than a month.
And every time they quarreled, Demeter hated Hades and even Hera a little more.
Although the two of them met for such a short time, it was enough to fulfill their promise. From the current situation, he could tell that Demeter would never give in on the matter of Persephone.
In fact, this is true. Demeter loves her daughter deeply and is a daughter-con. Moreover, with a personality like Demeter, once she makes up her mind about something, it will be more difficult for her to change than ordinary people.
This kind of thing...actually, Athena should be the one doing it.
Recalling the goddess who always had an elegant and gentle smile on her face, but was essentially a pleasure-seeking goddess, Nuoyan couldn't help but shook his head.
After all, if it were Athena, she would definitely be able to come up with a solution.
And if it were a normal situation, there would be no need for Nuoyan to express his intention. She would come out by herself, point out the direction for Nuoyan, and give him the oracle.
But the situation this time was too special, she could only watch. Not only Athena, but also the other goddesses could only do the same.
Unless Nuoyan takes the initiative to ask them for help.
This also caused a certain god on the holy mountain of Olympus to scream continuously... He watched the show and ate the melon, but didn't run away immediately. He even wanted to eat a few more bites because it smelled too good. Isn't this just asking for trouble?
What's more, even Athena thought that in the current situation, only she, Hera and others could step forward.
So at this moment, what Nuoyan didn't know was that all the gods had their eyes fixed on him and had never looked away.
Not only Athena and the others, but even Apollo, the god of light who was later known, bid farewell to the laurel goddess Daphne and returned to Olympus.
Therefore, apart from the goddess of justice Themis and the three goddesses of fate, there are currently seven Olympian gods who are involved in and paying attention to this matter.
Even in ancient Greek mythology, there were only two or three things that could attract the attention of so many gods at once.
For example, the adventure of the Golden Fleece, and the Trojan War!
When they left the palace where Persephone was imprisoned and left the deep mountains, it was already dawn. Nuoyan took off his invisibility helmet beside a small river.
Just after washing his face with river water and touching his stomach, feeling a little hungry, Pegasus, a Pegasus horse, fell from the sky with a clear horse neigh and came to the side of the somewhat surprised Nuoyan.
