When Persephone and Hades heard this, even Persephone, the Queen of the Underworld who loved Nuoyan so much, kept their mouths shut and did not refute.
He hurriedly asked Nuoyan to put it away and looked around vigilantly.
"It actually doesn't belong to me now. The oath between Hephaestus and I is that it will only belong to me after I use it to carve all the great gods."
Nuoyan explained, and at the same time looked at Persephone and Hades, and said: "So I have to go back, because the goddess Hephaestus is also one of the main gods of Olympus!"
"Besides... Goddess Hephaestus is actually quite gentle."
Recalling everything that happened to him in Hephaestus, although he was indeed imprisoned, Nuoyan really didn't understand why all the gods were so shocked, shocked that he could come out of Hephaestus safely.
After all, in Nuoyan's opinion, no matter how you look at it, Hephaestus is not as outrageous as Artemis, the goddess of the moon, and Apollo, the god of light!
If the gods thought the promise was abnormal when they first heard this.
Now the gods looking at the artifact are really doubting whether the abnormal one is Nuo or them!
So just like that, Nuoyan took Persephone, the Queen of the Underworld, away from Hades, the God of the Underworld.
When leaving, Persephone was obviously very reluctant to leave, and said to Nuoyan beside her: "Child, do you think... can I come back here?"
When Nuoyan heard this, he realized that he didn't know either, so he remained silent and did not answer Persephone.
Seeing this, Persephone smiled faintly and did not continue to embarrass Nuoyan.
"......Actually, I've always wanted to say one thing, that is, shouldn't this kind of thing generally be left to Hermes?" Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit depressing, Hecate took out her tin staff and set up a magic circle, and said with a sigh.
Hermes is the messenger of the gods. In ancient Greek mythology, he occasionally becomes a guide for the dead.
Lead them into the underworld, or help the heroes leave the underworld.
"Thank you for your help, Goddess Hecate." Persephone said softly to Hecate. She naturally knew the status and strength of this goddess among the gods.
“No trouble…I was going to say this.” Hecate glanced at Nuoyan and said, “But don’t look for me next time.
No, that's not right, there won't be a next time!"
After saying this, before Nuoyan and Persephone could react, they returned to the human world.
When they returned to the human world, the sky had already brightened, and the bright afternoon sun shone on the two of them. Not far ahead was the temple of the goddess Demeter.
Persephone winked at Nuoyan and said, "Hey, little Nuoyan, did you do something to make the goddess Hecate angry?"
Persephone recalled carefully and found that among all the gods she had met, Hecate seemed to be the one who hated promises the most.
Even Hephaestus, who was supposed to hate promises the most, couldn't say for sure now.
"I don't know, but I quite like the goddess Hecate." Although they had not met many times, Nuoyan still witnessed the mystery and power of Hecate.
The most important thing is that as a god, and a god of high status, she not only does not give off the feeling of a goddess, but her expressions are also rich enough that it is hard not to remember her vividly.
"Is that so...Does little Nuoyan like me?" Persephone said, blinking and looking at Nuoyan with anticipation.
Just when Nuoyan was about to answer.
Suddenly they noticed a figure appearing. It was the goddess of agriculture Demeter who had sensed their presence and came quickly.
Looking at the anxious Demeter, her mother, even though they had only been separated for about ten days, Persephone's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Then she stepped forward and was about to hug the mother who was worried about her.
Persephone's attempt was in vain.
Demeter turned a corner, bypassed Persephone, who was frozen in place with her emotions brewing, and came to Nuoyan.
"Good boy, are you okay? When I heard from Hermes that you were imprisoned, I was almost scared to death!"
"You don't know, Hera, who was with me at the time, was almost frightened to death. Now she's looking for Zeus all over the world, and is ready to take Zeus with her to get him back!"
Demeter dropped a bombshell message.
In fact, when Nuoyan ate the sleepy golden apple, Hephaestus asked the puppet to pass the message, and this was actually the result that Athena was waiting for.
What Athena didn't expect was that the order of the whole thing was messed up.
She originally thought that Hephaestus would imprison Nuoyan first, and only forge the artifact for Nuoyan after the matter was over. However, because of Nuoyan's words, she was inspired and desired to forge the artifact, so she forgot everything else...
And this is probably the common problem of artistic existence.
The destruction of the world is not as important as the burst of inspiration!
"Is this the chain that bound Hera?!" After seeing the silver chain in Nuoyan's hand, Demeter's face suddenly became very gloomy and she said, "No, Hephaestus is going too far.
I'm going to find her now and ask her for justice!"
Looking at the angry Demeter in front of her, who seemed even angrier than when she left, Persephone couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"Oh, no, Mother, Mother Goddess, didn't you notice I'm here?!"
Demeter glanced at Persephone after hearing this, then she touched Nuoyan's head with a gentle look and said softly, "The child is fine, he must have been frightened this time.
Don't worry, I, Demeter, swear to seek justice for you!"
Seeing Demeter swearing a vow right in front of her,
Not only was Nuoyan stupid, but Persephone was stupid as well.
Mother Demeter, calm down, I am your daughter!
Chapter 3 Athena: Long time no see, Xiao Nuoyan! (k)
"Respected Mother, my great Mother Goddess, I want to ask you something."
In the temple decorated with various flowers, Persephone, the Queen of the Underworld, looked at Demeter in front of her seriously and asked, "Am I your daughter?"
In the courtyard pavilion, the blonde Demeter, wearing a circular crown woven from golden wheat ears, looked at her in confusion and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"
As he said this, he fed the washed grapes to Nuoyan himself.
In ancient Greek mythology, grapes are one of the delicacies of the gods. Therefore, grapes symbolize sacredness and nobility in ancient Greek culture.
In addition, the ancient Greeks believed that grapes had the power to cure diseases, and they would squeeze grape juice and drink it to pray for good health.
Persephone silently looked at the scene in front of her and said, "I don't think I am now... Mother, look at me, I just came back from the underworld!"
"But it was you who kept clamoring to go to the underworld," Demeter replied calmly, "and you told me in front of all the gods that you wanted to stay in the underworld forever."
Persephone was speechless.
The nymph who was standing obediently by the side waiting to be served couldn't help but burst out laughing. After being glared at by Persephone, she put away her smile and lowered her head.
From this we can also see that these servants live very well with Demeter, unlike with Hephaestus, where the atmosphere seems to be frozen.
"I always feel like there's no need for me to come back." Persephone continued to say depressedly.
"You don't have to come back."
And Demeter's calm answer made the atmosphere on the scene completely quiet.
Until now, Nuoyan, who had been silent, was blinking on the side. He looked at the two quarreling mother and daughter in front of him. As a bystander, he naturally understood what was going on.
It is impossible that Demeter really doesn't care about Persephone, she is just expressing her dissatisfaction in this way.
And although most of the problems in this matter have been solved and the fate of everyone has been changed, the three goddesses of fate are busy all day and night, and facing the almost unfinished task, they have once wanted to give up.
But there is actually one small thing, that is, Demeter has not let go yet.
Although the gods had tacitly agreed that Persephone would become the Queen of the Underworld, Demeter still did not agree, which was why she promised to bring Persephone back.
Later, Persephone, who was angry with Demeter, ran away.
After Persephone ran away, Demeter stopped pampering Nuoyan and looked at the direction where she went with her purple eyes.
After a long while, he smiled and tilted his head to look at Nuoyan, and said softly: "I thought you would persuade me."
Nuoyan shook his head and said nothing.
That’s right, Nuoyan no longer has any intention of intervening in this matter.
"Are you no longer going to persuade me to let my daughter stay with Hades?"
Upon hearing this, Nuoyan replied: "I didn't intend to do this from the beginning... Although I am not actually qualified to say this, after all, no matter what my reasons are, I took the goddess Persephone to the underworld after all."
Hearing Nuoyan's answer, Demeter couldn't help but touch Nuoyan's head lovingly.
"No, of course you are qualified, because not only did you complete the test that I set so hard for you, but... child, do you know that you actually changed my originally miserable fate?"
Nuoyan couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this and looked at her in confusion.
As for the conversation with Hera and her original future, Demeter naturally could not tell her.
This is one of the reasons why Demeter seems so fond of Nuo Yan at this moment.
"After going through so many things at the same time, the moment I saw her express her wish in the underworld, I actually...had already compromised."
Under Nuoyan's somewhat surprised gaze, Demeter said gently: "I originally intended to let her witness the ugliness of the underworld so that she would give up staying by my side forever and being protected by me, but I didn't expect that she would show me her growth and determination instead."
"At that moment, I realized that she had completely grown up and I shouldn't keep her by my side any longer. It was no longer a shelter, but a bondage."
Nuoyan was silent for a while, and then he couldn't help but praise Demeter: "Goddess Demeter, you are such a beautiful mother."
"......But, actually, if she hadn't come back, I wouldn't have agreed to it."
As she spoke, under Nuoyan's stunned gaze, Demeter suddenly winked at him mischievously, then continued with a smile: "Hera has already told me that she will spend half of each year in the underworld and the other half with me."
"By the way, don't tell her. Let's leave it alone for half a year... Who told her to disrespect me as a mother?"
Looking at Demeter who was pouting and looking resentful in front of him, Nuoyan wisely closed his mouth and nodded obediently.
Although he couldn't lie to the gods, he didn't have to mention it as long as Persephone didn't ask.
As for Hades, I'm sure Hera will tell him. After all, Hera had promised Hades a long time ago that she would give him a wedding.
"Oh, by the way, kid, what are you going to do next? I heard from Hera and Athena that you seem to be looking for your companions and preparing to embark on the adventure of finding the Golden Fleece?"
In fact, now, even the Golden Fleece, a rare treasure famous throughout Greece, cannot be compared with the artifact on Nuoyan's body, but it is a test given by Hera after all.
Nuoyan nodded when he heard this, but then shook his head and replied to Demeter: "Yes, Goddess Demeter, I have indeed been preparing for the Golden Fleece adventure, but... before that, I am now ready to return to Hephaestus."
Leaving Hephaestus was actually an accident, because the magic left by Hecate was timed, and it was something that was left behind when the promise was sent out of the underworld that day.
She even found it troublesome, so she handed the matter over to her own familiar, the Dark Butterfly... In other words, if Hecate had been a little more careful and realized Nuoyan's situation at the time, he would not have left so easily.
After all, given the choice between telling Hades and getting into trouble, Hecate would naturally not choose the latter.
Now, Nuoyan and Medea have met, and she doesn’t even know if blocking the temple door will be useful!
"Child, you are actually planning to go back?!" When Demeter heard Nuoyan's answer, she naturally looked at him in shock and confusion.
You know, Hera was already in a hurry to find Zeus, but you sneaked out and wanted to go back and continue to be imprisoned?
"Yes." Nuoyan nodded and took out the magic weapon on him, and explained the whole story to Demeter.
Although going back is equivalent to being imprisoned, under normal circumstances one should think about escaping.
But according to the oath with Hephaestus, if he wants to get the artifact in his hand, he must portray the twelve gods of Olympus, and Hephaestus is one of them.
Also because of the oath, Nuoyan knew that Hephaestus would not really harm him, and at most he would use him to cause trouble to Hera.
After figuring out the reason, Demeter looked at Nuoyan with a strange look, because...
"If I'm not mistaken, are you planning to help Hephaestus?"
Help Hephaestus against Hera!
The promise is heard but there is no response. In fact, no response is a kind of acquiescence.
Yes, this time the promise was intended to be on Hephaestus' side.
After all, although this artifact is subject to oath restrictions, it doesn't make much difference if you pick it up for free.
"I respect Goddess Hera very much, and I'm grateful that she's running around for me. At the same time, I have no intention of helping Goddess Hephaestus, but... I still want to do something for that goddess." Nuoyan replied.
He recalled Hephaestus, who was thrown off Mount Olympus by Hera and had his legs broken, whose own marriage had long become a joke, and who wore a mask and was known as the ugliest god.
And Nuoyan is not stupid. Although he had no specific concept at the beginning, he could see the reactions of Demeter, Persephone, and Hades.
He had naturally determined that the artifact Hephaestus had made for him was a creation that even the gods would marvel at!
Therefore, under the influence of these circumstances, it is impossible for Nuoyan to remain indifferent.
Looking at the determined look in Nuoyan's eyes, Demeter understood that he had made up his mind, so she didn't say anything else.
"Then I will bless you."
So after smiling, Demeter said gently: "After all, I have witnessed the miracles you created, and I am one of them, so... I believe that you will create miracles again."
