Then, thinking about it, Jason instantly thought of the goddess Hecate, instead of thinking of seeking the goddess of wisdom Athena...

I wonder what Athena would think if she knew.

Not long after that, Jason and his companions arrived at the kingdom of Inachus.

Now there is only one last step left in the tribute to Hermes.

That is to remove the curse on Io...

And if you want to break this curse, you will definitely be discovered by Queen Hera!

Chapter 4: I'll marry my daughter to you! (k)

"They're back..."

Inachus's kingdom, outside the royal palace.

The noble goddess Hestia, holding a little white cat in her arms... Io, transformed by Jason using a transformation potion, gazes at the hero returning from afar.

Said softly.

Next to Hestia stood Io's father, King Inachus, and Io's brothers and sisters also came here.

"Great goddess Hestia, do not know that they..."

The king, standing respectfully beside Hestia, seemed to be about to speak but stopped himself.

Hestia naturally knew what he wanted to ask. She gently stroked the little white cat in her arms and said to him with a smile, "Don't worry, King Inachus. The hundred-eyed giant Argus has been destroyed by that child... I'm sure you also saw the arrow that brought light to the world.

So now you just have to welcome their triumphant return!"

Hearing the reply from the noble goddess beside him, the old king Inachus couldn't help but show excitement on his face.

And the people around who were so respectful that they didn't even dare to look at Hestia naturally showed surprise in their eyes.

Not too long passed.

Under the shining sunshine, the holy Pegasus flapped its white wings and stopped in front of everyone present.

Then the blond, blue-eyed hero in white, and his beautiful attendant, came into view of everyone present.

Look at the hero Jason who came down from Pegasus and was pampered by the sunshine.

All of Io's sisters present were fascinated by this.

Io in Hestia's arms also stood up excitedly. As she let out a soft cry, a faint white light suddenly emitted from her body, scaring the people around her.

Then Hestia put her down, and Io changed from a kitten to a white cow.

Time for the Transfiguration Potion.

"Honorable Goddess Hestia, this..." Seeing this, Io's father Inachus looked at Hestia in panic.

But Hestia had no time for him right now.

Because Jason walked up to Hestia and saluted her, and the beautiful Hestia smiled back and praised Jason's bravery.

"My child, you have done a great job. I am so proud of everything you have done!"

"Thank you for your praise, Goddess Hestia, but all this is actually nothing. I am just doing what I should do."

Watching the conversation between the goddess and the handsome hero, everyone around was moved by how beautiful it all was.

If there had been a bard present, he would have surely imprinted all of this in his mind and sung praises of this moment.

But after Atalanta walked over and saluted Hestia, she glanced at Jason who was smiling beside her.

Because no one except Atalanta knew that when Jason saw the scene from the sky, his reaction was...

"Brother Ma, can we just leave? ...I don't want to go anymore!"

He looked like he had given up on himself and wanted to escape... Because when Jason saw the situation, he knew that there was bound to be trouble!

And now, Atalanta was looking at Jason, who looked like a standard hero...Atalanta couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly.

After a brief conversation, Jason looked at Io.

Now, all that remains is to lift the curse on Io.

Although Jason couldn't lift the curse, he certainly had many ways to do it.

Whether you seek help from God or ask for help from a teacher, it’s all fine.

At first, Jason had planned to look for his teacher Hecate, but now it was obviously no longer necessary...

Hestia appeared here, obviously for this purpose.

So Jason looked at Io, then at Io's father Inachus, nodded to Inachus, and finally looked at Hestia.

"Your Majesty Hestia, Princess Io..."

"I can't break the curse on her." Hestia obviously knew what Jason was going to say and interrupted him.

Hestia's words stunned Jason, and everyone around him was also stunned.

Then, just as the eyes of Io, who had turned into a heifer, were gradually becoming filled with despair.

"Although I can't lift the curse on her...but child, you can." Hestia said softly to Jason with a smile on her face.

"Me?" Jason was stunned when he heard this.

"Yes, child... It seems that Apollo really didn't tell you." Hestia said, raising her hand gently.

Then, under the guidance of Hestia's power, Apollo gave Jason his second weapon... the golden lyre.

The sound of the lyre, played by Jason, once resounded throughout the underworld.

It emerged from the light and slowly fell into Jason's hands.

"The sound of the lyre can dispel all darkness and filth in the world... Play it, child. With its sound, you will be able to remove the curse from this poor child."

Hestia's voice fell, and Jason didn't react for a moment.

Obviously he really didn't know.

But think about it, this is one of the iconic weapons of Apollo, the God of Light. How could it be useless?

Purification, driving away darkness... this is the power of this lyre.

Soon, Jason reacted and nodded to Hestia, then sat down aside with his lyre in hand.

And at Jason's signal, Io, who had turned into a heifer, came and sat beside Io.

Then, under the gaze of everyone, Jason gently plucked the strings of his harp.

And the moment he played the harp, light gathered on Jason.

The beautiful piano sound is an enjoyment that cannot be described in words for the audience around.

Under this beautiful piano music, even the evil spirits and ferocious beasts will instantly become gentle and docile and submit their obedience.

At the same time, in this beautiful piano music, the shadows of nine Muses appeared from the light.

They each took their own music and came to Jason's side. After greeting the noble goddess Hestia, they accompanied Jason.

Accompanied by the music of the nine Muses, the golden sunlight illuminates the land, making the people around feel warm.

Io, who was exposed to the golden sunlight, felt her whole body begin to itch.

The itchy feeling made Io unable to help but start scratching herself, but the more she scratched, the more itchy she felt.

So Io couldn't help but use her strength, stretched out her white hands, pushed aside the "outer coat" of her little cow, and crawled out from the "outer coat".

Only then did Io feel less itchy.

She happily came to Jason and squatted down, with a beautiful smile on her face, and her flawless eyes were sparkling as she looked at Jason in front of her.

And under Io's gaze.

Jason, who had a clear view of her entire body, couldn't help but turn his head away in embarrassment.

"I...Io!"

Then Inachus' voice sounded in Io's ears.

Io subconsciously turned her head and looked at Inakos in confusion, saying, "Father, is there something wrong..."

A pleasant voice sounded beside my ears.

When Io heard the familiar voice, she couldn't help but be stunned.

Then, Io stared blankly at the excited Inakos, and lowered her head as if she had thought of something... and saw a beautiful body without a single flaw.

Yes, Io emerged from the heifer.

Just as Hestia had said, the curse was dispelled in the beautiful music and golden sunlight.

“Father, I…I…I!”

Io stood up, looked at her body, and wanted to say something excitedly.

He turned his head to the side again, and awkwardly turned his head towards Jason in the distance.

Then his face quickly turned red.

Io was so excited and ashamed that she felt a black screen in front of her eyes and then fainted.

And the moment she completely fainted and fell to the ground, she saw Jason, who was as dazzling as Apollo, the god of light, reaching out to embrace her...

At the same time, it was the moment when Jason dispelled the curse.

In the distance, on the holy Mount Olympus.

......

......

While Zeus was taking the blame and having a headache dealing with Hera...

Suddenly, they both froze at the same time.

Then they turned their heads together and looked towards the human world.

Athena and others noticed that something was wrong with the two of them, so they looked over and naturally discovered that Jason had broken the curse on Io.

He now covered Io's body with clothes, held her in his arms and handed her over to Io's father Inachus.

However, Zeus and other gods can see Jason, but Hera cannot... because Jason is still wearing a silver bracelet on his hand.

That was the artifact Hephaestus made for Jason to specifically block Hera's power.

So just as Hera was slightly stunned, felt that the scene in front of her was a little blurry, and was about to take a closer look.

Beside Jason, Hestia, sensing his gaze, reacted.

She raised her head and looked towards Mount Olympus, then waved her hand and blocked it all with her divine power.

"...Zeus!"

Then, after a brief silence, Hera looked at Zeus angrily.

Looking at the furious Hera, Zeus quickly said, "Wait a minute, Hera, I didn't do this. You saw it too. It was Hestia who did it. It has nothing to do with me!"

"......Hmph!" Hera snorted angrily but said nothing.

Then he glanced at all the gods present, and seeing that they all turned their heads away guiltily, Hera, feeling very aggrieved, finally walked out of the temple.

She was going to see the Mother Goddess, the previous Queen of Heaven, Goddess Rhea, to complain!

At the same time, Hera was actually a little confused. She always felt that there was something wrong with the gods like Athena, and wanted to ask Rhea if she knew anything...

However, Hera would never have thought that if she went to find Rhea, she would only find it more difficult to find the truth.

Because even her mother, the goddess Rhea, rebelled...

......

......

"Goddess Hestia...?"

After handing Io over to Inachus, Jason saw Hestia looking up into the distance and couldn't help but ask in a puzzled voice.

Hestia looked at Jason, then at Io who was surrounded by people and fainted.

"Hera has already noticed the situation here... Don't worry, you have the artifact given by your teacher Hephaestus in your hand. She didn't see you."
