There was also a handsome young man sitting under the shade of a tree, holding a golden lyre in his hand, and the beautiful sound of the lyre naturally came from this young man.

As he played the piano beautifully, the bright sunshine shone on him, making him look so dazzling.

Persephone naturally recognized the young man at a glance, so her expression couldn't help but show a bit of surprise.

But after being surprised, she came to her mother Demeter, and listened to the music played by the young man together with the nymphs and her mother who were surrounding her.

Time passed slowly, and when the last beautiful note fell, the boy slowly put down his slender fingers that were moving on the strings.

He raised his head, and when his emerald eyes met Persephone's, he was slightly stunned, but he couldn't help but smile and said, "Sister Persephone, you are back."

"You still remember to come back!" Before Persephone could reply, Demeter beside her glared at her fiercely.

After glaring at Persephone, Demeter turned around and gave Jason a gentle smile, then walked up to him and praised him highly.

Persephone once again felt depressed by this obvious difference in treatment.

"Mother, who is your daughter?"

"I don't want you as my daughter yet. I have little Jason and little Medea, and that's enough for me!"

In response to Persephone's complaint, Demeter responded without hesitation.

The corners of Persephone's mouth twitched slightly, and then she gave Jason a resentful look.

Jason could only smile helplessly at this.

A few minutes passed in Demeter's temple.

"Sister Persephone, it's so nice to see you before I go... I thought it would be a while before we could meet again."

Jason suddenly said this to Persephone.

"you are leaving?"

Persephone was stunned for a moment, then looked at Demeter beside her.

However, although Demeter looked a little reluctant, she had no intention of stopping her, which made Persephone feel a little strange.

"Well, for some reason, I'm going to the Kingdom of Colchis."

"The Kingdom of Colchis?" Persephone blinked. "If I remember correctly, isn't that the country of little Medea..."

As they spoke, Persephone finally understood.

She understood why her mother, Demeter, did not stop Jason from leaving.

"Well, I just went to see my senior sisters..."

When Jason said this, his expression looked a little helpless.

Jason originally thought that the next time he would meet Medea would be during the journey of the Golden Fleece... Although Jason did have the idea of meeting Medea last time, he was intercepted by Amphitrite, the Queen of the Sea.

However, it was also because of Amphitrite that Jason learned such a good skill that the gods would listen quietly to the music he played, and he was recognized by Apollo, the god of light and music.

Obtain the lyre that can purify everything.

"Are you finally going to see your sister?" Hearing Jason's words, Persephone suddenly laughed and said, "That's great. If you go to see her, she won't nag us every night."

Seeing Persephone bring up this topic, Demeter couldn't help but smile, while Jason looked a little embarrassed.

In fact, Jason knew that Medea reported to them every night.

Because Hecate had mentioned Jason's dishonesty several times, she had thrown him to Medea, who had been annoying her almost every night...

The main reason was that when Medea left, she told Jason to remember to look for her.

It turns out that almost a year has passed, and it would be strange if Medea didn't go to them to tell them about it.

But it’s not Jason’s fault…well, actually it’s really his fault.

But who made Jason have that thorn in his heart, knowing what his future would be like?

This made Jason always subconsciously resist meeting Medea, and even a little afraid of her...

So, why did Jason go to Medea at this critical moment? ...The reason lies with Demeter.

Therefore, at this moment, Jason looked at Demeter with a little resentment.

During the few days that Demeter stayed with her, Jason briefly mentioned to her what she would do at the wedding.

When the question of who would be the best man and maid of honor came up, Demeter immediately decided on Jason and Medea.

As for Demeter's request, Jason thought for a while and found that he really couldn't refuse.

Because in some ways, Medea is actually better than Hecate, the one Jason chose at the beginning.

And we can't let Cerberus cooperate with Jason, right?

So even though it was a critical moment, with only a little over a month left before the wedding, Jason had no choice but to set out again to look for Medea.

When Persephone heard that Jason was going to find Medea, she not only did not stop him, but also urged him on.

In this way, less than an hour after Persephone returned, Persephone and Demeter stood outside the temple door, watching Jason leave on his Pegasus.

It looked as if he was afraid Jason would regret it...

"Speaking of which, Mother... Why did little Jason suddenly come here?"

After Jason left, Persephone seemed to suddenly remember this matter and asked Demeter in confusion.

Demeter looked at Persephone and smiled mysteriously, but did not explain.

"What is it, mother?" Persephone grabbed Demeter's arm and asked relentlessly.

"Okay, stop shaking my hand. I'm telling you, isn't that enough?"

Demeter replied helplessly, looking at Persephone unhappily, then smiled and said with a very happy expression: "He came here this time for our tribute. As for what the tribute is, I can't tell you yet."

"Hey, why is this happening?"

"Don't ask me anymore. I promised Jason, but... you'll know soon. Stay tuned."

Demeter whispered to Persephone, "He will offer a tribute for you, for me, and for that fellow in the underworld that will shock the gods!"

......

......

A few days later...

Aiyu Island.

This is the daughter of the sun god Helios and the incineration nymph Perseis, one of the Ocean nymphs. She is also the eldest disciple of the goddess Hecate and the aunt of Medea.

The place where Circe, the witch of temptation and corruption, lives.

At night, in Circe's castle.

Medea, wearing a light purple dress, holding the staff she got from Hecate, knelt respectfully in front of the statue of the goddess Hecate.

Send her sincere prayers.

As for the words of prayer...

"Teacher Hecate, may I ask how my brother is doing recently? ... I heard from you a few days ago that my brother seems to be preparing for something big.

Teacher Hecate, can't you stop my brother a little? ...Although I know my brother's character, I also understand you, Teacher Hecate.

But Teacher Hecate, your words are most effective on my brother, and don’t you think you are becoming more and more indulgent to my brother?

I don't think this is a good thing. Teacher Hecate, you should be stricter so that I can come forward to comfort him...

And Teacher Hecate, has my brother been too close to the respected goddess Athena and the moon goddess Artemis recently?

And the woman named Atalanta you mentioned last time, has my brother met her now?

Also, when will he come back to see me...ah, I'm not urging you, Teacher Hecate, it's just..."

Well, no wonder Persephone and Demeter urged Jason to come and see Medea as soon as possible.

As time went by, Medea's prayers became more and more frequent. Not to mention them, even Circe, who had arrived here at some point, came to Medea's side with a speechless expression.

“Medea, are you praying to Teacher Hecate, or are you complaining to Teacher Hecate… and I guess you don’t need to pray anymore.

Given our teacher's personality, she should have used magic to block out the sounds coming from our side long ago."

“Yes, I know.” Medea replied to Circe calmly, “Teacher Hecate did this a long time ago, but I have also cracked it many times. Now the teacher is outlining a new magic.

Aunt, please don't say anything yet. I'll complain more while the teacher can still hear me...cough, pray for a while."

Upon hearing this, Circe opened her mouth slowly and looked at Medea.

"Why do I suddenly feel a little sorry for Teacher Hecate... And Medea, don't call me aunt again!"

"Whenever you give up meeting my brother, I will stop calling you aunt."

"That won't do. I have to meet such an interesting junior brother. Besides, maybe he is looking forward to meeting me."

"That's impossible," Medea replied flatly, "because he doesn't even want to see me, let alone you!"

"Why?" Circe asked somewhat depressedly.

"Because... you are more troublesome than me!" Medea said confidently.

Generally speaking, Medea was not wrong.

As the witch of temptation and corruption, if we only look at her behavior, Circe is indeed more dangerous than Medea.

She longs for love and is easily attracted to outstanding men, which is why Medea strictly forbids Jason from meeting her.

As for the people she falls in love with, her possessiveness is even stronger and more terrifying than that of ordinary gods!

Her doting and loving way of playing is full of forbidden sweetness.

One thing I have to mention is that in Jason's original story, Medea's initial crazy actions were more or less influenced by Circe...

Circe listened to Medea's words and couldn't help but open her rainbow eyes wide and looked at her angrily.

But after a while, she seemed to have lost her energy, ignored Medea, knelt down and began to pray to Hecate.

Her prayer was quick, she just said hello and left, not like Medea at all. After all, she didn't have that many complaints to say.

So for a long time afterwards, Medea seemed to have endless things to say as she spoke to Hecate.

Even after she realized that Hecate had constructed a new magic circle to block her voice, she continued to speak for a long time.

Medea did not end her prayer until the moonlight had quietly disappeared from the room and it was already late at night.

After finishing the prayer, Medea stood up, rubbed her completely numb legs, took out a bottle of magic potion, hesitated for a while, and finally did not drink it.

After all, she is different from Jason. Her soul has not been tempered and cannot remain dormant forever.

So she yawned and lay down next to the Temple of Hecate and soon fell asleep.

And just as she had fallen asleep...

"I finally understand why Teacher Hecate always looks like she's really dissatisfied with me every time we meet... I've just been listening for a long time, and you really don't have a single good word to say!"

In the dark night, Jason, who had come into contact with the magic of invisibility, came to the sleeping Medea.

Reaching out, he pinched her tender cheek hard, causing Medea to frown slightly and let out a small cry. Only then did Jason stop.

He gently picked up the petite girl and used invisibility magic to disappear from the spot...

Well, at least Medea was right about one thing.

That is, if it is not necessary, Jason really does not want to see the witch Circe, Hecate's eldest disciple, who is as troublesome as Medea!

The master, apprentice and three sisters, two of them are troublesome...it's not right to say that.

After all, who can guarantee that all three won’t become trouble in the future?

Chapter 4.5: If I Am in Your Story (k)

Under the moonlight,

Jason held Medea in his arms and came to the edge of the island.

Beside the water reflecting the moonlight, the holy Pegasus stretched its wings, waiting for Jason's arrival.

When Jason walked in and came to Pegasus' side, he lowered his head and looked at Medea in his arms, who had her eyes closed and seemed to be sleeping soundly.

Rolled his eyes.
