After expressing his gratitude to the Fire Spirit, Jason became aware of the gazes of his surroundings and subconsciously turned his head to see Hecate.
"Teacher Hecate?...Why are you here?" Jason was slightly stunned and said in surprise. When he was about to walk towards her, he stumbled and almost fell. Fortunately, the fire spirit was quick to catch him.
Then Jason took out several potions from a small silver bag and drank them skillfully.
The potion swept away Jason's sleepiness and gradually cured his fatigue.
These potions have no side effects and were prepared by Medea herself for Jason. You should know that with the help of these potions, Jason's highest record was that he had not slept or rested for three whole years!
After a short rest, Jason picked up the forged item and thanked the Fire Spirit again. He then smiled at Hecate and said, "Teacher, I'm relieved to see you're okay... But I still have things to do. I'll talk to you next time!"
With a desire to share the joy of successful forging with Teacher Hephaestus, and a desire to gain Teacher Hephaestus's recognition.
Jason couldn't wait to call back Pegasus, and without waiting for Hecate's reply, he immediately used the magic engraved on the staff by Hecate and returned to the human world...
Seeing this, Hecate froze in place.
Even the Fire Spirit's expression was a little strange now.
She was not as focused as Jason, so she knew that Hecate had come here early and was waiting for Jason.
And when Jason is with Hecate... he is like a sticky candy that is impossible to get rid of!
Today this...
It seems that his other teacher is not much lower than the goddess Hecate in this child's heart.
The Fire Spirit couldn't help but think so in her heart, and just when she was about to curiously ask Hecate about the identity of Jason's other teacher.
The fire spirit looked at Hecate's open mouth, and finally closed it brilliantly.
Because she found that the expression Hecate showed now seemed a little... scary!
Chapter 6: Teacher, Stop Fighting! (k)
"Teacher Hephaestus, I'm back!"
The holy Pegasus flew directly into the temple of Hephaestus, the god of craftsmen. Because of its fast flying speed, it blew the skirts of the maids along the way.
In fact, this is a very rude behavior, but no one will blame Tianma and the young man in white sitting on Tianma.
After all, he was Hephaestus' only student and the child she cared about the most.
When Jason and Pegasus flew directly into the temple hall, he not only saw Teacher Hephaestus sitting in a wheelchair, but also saw an unexpected goddess who appeared there.
"Goddess Athena?"
Looking at the beautiful goddess with silver hair and golden eyes sitting in front of Hephaestus and seeming to be talking to Hephaestus, Jason couldn't help but be stunned.
At this moment, Athena looked at Jason who ran in on Pegasus with a strange expression on her face... Especially when she saw the maid puppets who came forward and helped Jason down from the Pegasus skillfully, moved the Pegasus away and quickly cleaned the hall, her expression became even more speechless.
Because no matter how you look at it, it's obvious that this isn't the first time Jason has done this.
"Are you... pampering him too much?" Athena couldn't help but say to Hephaestus.
Hephaestus smiled gently at Jason who had returned, nodded slightly to him, then turned back to look at Athena and replied, "Then tell me, who else can I pamper besides him? ... And speaking of this, I actually have to thank you, Athena.
For it was you who sent him to me, wasn't it you?"
Jason met Hephaestus because Athena said that she commissioned Hephaestus to create an artifact that could conceal the perception of Queen Hera, which is the bracelet that Jason is still wearing on his hand.
At the same time, Jason would eventually become Hephaestus' apprentice, which was also due to the oracle given by Athena.
At that time, Athena actually intended to let Jason and Hephaestus get acquainted. After all, although Hephaestus was not popular among the Olympian gods, Hephaestus actually had a good relationship with Athena.
Because Athena, the goddess of wisdom, knew very well how terrifying Hephaestus' potential abilities were!
"Well, I did it on purpose."
Athena also admitted this frankly, saying, “But I really didn’t expect that things would develop like this… Now it seems that this child is closer to you than I am!
And you and Hecate are in league with me about him!"
Athena felt uncomfortable when this matter was mentioned.
Because after that day, Athena herself went to investigate, but no matter what method she used, it was difficult to find any clues... After all, the place with the most traces was not the human world but the underworld.
The underworld is a place that even Athena finds difficult to enter easily.
In response to Athena's complaint, Hephaestus smiled lightly and said nothing more. After all, if he said too much to Athena, it would only cause trouble.
At this moment, Jason came over and said, "Teacher, I'm back...and honorable goddess Athena, why are you here?"
"Why can't I come?" Athena replied unhappily.
"That's not it, Goddess Athena, I didn't mean to be presumptuous, I meant to say that Hades and his brother-in-law..."
"I'm doing it, I'm doing it." Athena waved her hand perfunctorily.
And asking a goddess to submit her manuscript... Jason must be the first one!
"She came here this time because of you... My child, you might be in real trouble this time." Hephaestus spoke at the right time, and after a slight pause, he said to Jason, "By the way, where have you been? What took you so long to come back?"
"I'm going back to the underworld." Jason replied honestly.
"Underworld?" The smile on Hephaestus's face stiffened slightly.
"So... you went to see Hecate?"
Upon hearing this, Athena couldn't help but cast a surprised look at Hephaestus, because she found that Hephaestus's tone now... was actually a little unhappy!
"Well, I met Teacher Hecate, but I didn't go to see Teacher Hecate this time. I went to see Sister Fire Spirit... Teacher, I have actually created my first forged item!"
Hearing this, Hephaestus and Athena were both stunned.
Apparently Athena also remembered that Jason's first forging would be presented to Hephaestus, which was a true tribute.
"You're ready... so soon?"
Athena said to Jason with a slightly surprised look.
Because this was a tribute to the god of craftsmen, and Jason had only studied with Hephaestus for about three months.
Even Athena felt...that this was a bit too hasty.
However, when she recalled the tributes Jason had offered to the gods along the way and how many surprises he had given them, Athena was immediately filled with more curiosity besides being surprised.
"Well... Actually, this tribute was able to be completed so quickly thanks to you, Goddess Athena. I am truly grateful.
By the way, Mr. Hephaestus, you just said I was in trouble...?"
"It's okay. That's not important now!" Athena waved her hand to interrupt Hephaestus who was about to nod and say something, and said to Jason, "You should offer the tribute to Hephaestus first."
Hephaestus looked at Jason with curiosity and anticipation, but she said softly, "My business is not urgent. Athena, you should finish talking to Jason first, and we can think of a solution together..."
"No, now is the perfect time... because the tribute I offer to you, Sensei, requires feedback from others, and Goddess Athena will also give a fair evaluation."
After Jason finished speaking, Athena couldn't help but become even more curious.
Then Jason was seen taking Hephaestus out of the temple and into a separate room.
"What kind of tribute is this? It's so mysterious..."
Just as Athena was hesitating whether she should go and peek, she suddenly felt as if someone was watching her.
"Who!" Athena frowned suddenly and immediately released her divine power, causing the surrounding space to shake.
"It's me." Hecate realized that Athena was about to draw her weapon, so she lifted the invisibility magic on her body and appeared in front of Athena.
After Athena saw that the god who appeared was Hecate, her expression became a little better, but then confusion naturally followed.
"Hecate...what are you doing sneaking around like that?"
Hecate did not answer Athena's doubts, but looked in the direction where Jason and Hephaestus disappeared.
Seeing this, Athena blinked, then said, "Wait a minute, Hecate, you didn't... follow Jason all the way here, did you?"
Hecate glanced at Athena for a moment, still saying nothing.
But Athena now knew the answer, and after carefully observing Hecate's expression, she couldn't help but feel happy.
Because she remembered that just now, when Hephaestus heard Jason mention Hecate, the emotion he showed at that moment was not very happy...
Gods are possessive, and goddesses even more so.
Especially when it comes to things that they like, their possessiveness will be even stronger!
The reason why this was not shown some time ago was because of Jason's attitude towards Hephaestus.
He addressed Hephaestus as teacher and showed great respect.
But in fact, it is precisely because of this respect that there is a sense of distance.
After all, calling Hephaestus "teacher" was because of a "mission" at the time.
But now, Jason has been conquered by Hephaestus.
Therefore, when Hecate realized that Jason was sincere to Hephaestus, she naturally felt uncomfortable and unhappy...
To put it simply, Hecate realized that her things were being secretly occupied by others!
Hmm? You ask Chiron, the Centaur Sage?
How can things between women and men be the same?
Besides, Chiron is very smart and he will never compete with Hecate.
But Hephaestus...
And just when Hecate lifted the invisibility spell and appeared, Hephaestus, the master of the temple, naturally noticed it.
But she didn't care about this now, because just now, Jason had reached out and taken off the mask she was wearing...
Even during the three months of learning forging, Hephaestus had actually taken it off many times at Jason's request for Jason to observe.
But at this moment, when his true appearance was once again exposed to Jason, Hephaestus still felt very uncomfortable and his heart beat faster than usual.
She lowered her head shyly, not daring to look Jason in the eye.
Jason couldn't help but smile at this, because he could only see a goddess like this in Hephaestus.
After all, the goddesses Jason had met so far basically took pleasure in teasing him.
"Teacher, can you please close your eyes for a moment?"
Upon hearing this, Hephaestus looked up at Jason, hesitated for a moment, and finally closed his eyes.
After closing her eyes, Hephaestus could clearly feel Jason walking towards her, which made her long eyelashes tremble slightly.
Especially when Jason's hand lifted up her golden hair that fell on her face and accidentally touched her cheek.
Hephaestus felt like he was electrocuted, and all his nerves were tense!
He almost opened his eyes, but in the end Hephaestus endured the discomfort and sat down obediently.
And in this situation, Jason took out the mask he made with a serious look and gently put it on Hephaestus' face.
"Okay, teacher."
After hearing Jason's words, Hephaestus finally breathed a sigh of relief and opened his eyes.
At the same time, I felt a pang of regret...because nothing happened.
After opening his eyes and blinking twice, Hephaestus realized that he was wearing something on the left side of his face, but it was very light and weightless.
Hephaestus subconsciously reached out and touched his face, and what he touched was a mask made of special metal and fused with eternal flames.
Hephaestus touched his mask and cast a questioning look at Jason.
Jason did not explain much about this, but took out the bronze mirror he had prepared long ago, so that Hephaestus could see his current appearance through it.
Compared with the mask Hephaestus wore before, the biggest contrast at first glance is actually its small size... Because Hephaestus herself has the beautiful face of a goddess, she is the daughter of Queen Hera, so Jason naturally would not create an eye-catching mask.
That would seriously affect the beauty of a goddess.
Therefore, the biggest purpose of this mask is still to cover up the birthmark on Hephaestus' face. This is also the reason why Jason asked Hephaestus to take off the mask for observation many times.
The entire mask is golden in color, and the overall pattern looks very elegant and noble. After all, the person wearing this mask is a real goddess.
And because of the special material used, the mask will gently adhere to the user's face without the need for binding or restraint with wires.
But that alone is not enough!
When wearing a mask, the most important beauty is undoubtedly the one hidden beneath it.
