In mythology, with the help of the wise Athena, the hero Bellerophon tamed the Pegasus and defeated the monster Chimera.
It was because of his attempt to fly to Mount Olympus that he received punishment from the gods and fell from a great height.
But Jason obviously had no such worries.
Not only that, when he approached the holy Mount Olympus, he heard the shrill cry of an eagle, and a majestic hawk came to Jason's side.
After circling around Jason several times, he led the way and personally took Jason into the holy Mount Olympus.
There were no obstacles along the way, and the eagle brought Jason to the gate of the magnificent temple without disappearing.
And just as the holy Pegasus landed with Jason, dressed in white and wearing a mask.
Outside the door, the god had been standing there waiting for a long time.
"Hercules, the hero in white, long time no see."
The messenger of the gods, Hermes, smiled as he watched the young man dismount from his Pegasus and bow to him. He said, "Let's go. The respected King of the Gods has been waiting for you for a long time."
After saying this, Hermes personally took Jason into the temple.
Inside the magnificent temple, beautiful nymphs are busy working.
They greeted Hermes respectfully as he approached, and looked curiously at Jason beside him.
At one point, they all subconsciously thought Jason was the most handsome god, Apollo, the god of light, but they found out that it was not the case until they got closer.
What surprised them even more was that the young man walking with Hermes was actually a child, a human!
It is also because of this that more and more people come to say hello.
After greeting each other, they all gathered together and chattered in low voices about Jason.
"You... you really enjoy eating no matter where you are."
Seeing this, Hermes couldn't help but said to Jason in a teasing tone.
"Hey, Master Hermes, I don't quite understand what you are saying..."
Just as Jason was replying, a figure walking down the corridor caught Jason's attention.
She was an extremely dignified goddess.
She was wearing a white robe, and her long white hair was fluttering slightly in the wind.
She stood at the corner, as if waiting for someone.
What attracted Jason's attention was that her eyes were covered with a white cloth.
"Respected Goddess Themis, why are you here?"
Just as Jason was looking at this unique goddess curiously, Hermes was very surprised when he came to the goddess whose eyes were covered with white cloth.
Dear?
Hearing Hermes addressing the goddess, Jason was stunned.
"Jason, this is the goddess Themis, the embodiment of justice and order, the most impartial judge of Olympus... She's on par with the goddess Rhea you met!"
Seeing Jason's confusion, Hermes gave an answer.
Hearing this, Jason's expression seemed slightly moved.
Because he knew Rhea, she was the mother of Zeus and his companions, the second generation queen of heaven!
Themis, goddess of law and justice.
She is the creator and guardian of order.
She is also the sister of Zeus, the father of the second generation of gods.
Therefore, her status is naturally extremely noble, and because she is fair in her dealings, she is respected by all gods, including the king of gods Zeus.
Her eyes covered with white cloth meant that she could not recognize anyone, and only held the symbol of justice in her hands.
So just when Jason was surprised, he found that Themis seemed to be looking at him... Although her eyes were covered by white cloth, Jason felt that she seemed to be looking at him.
"Finally see you."
Then, this goddess, who represented absolute justice and was unsmiling, calmly said to Jason, "The child of Hecate, the goddess of roads."
"...Respected Goddess Themis, do you know me?"
"I know." Themis nodded gently and said calmly, "I have always seen what you did to Lamia... Rhea went to see you because of me."
Hearing this, Jason couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Then at this moment, Themis gently raised her left hand, and a holy balance scale appeared in her left hand.
"I have witnessed your judgment when dealing with Lamia and the God King Zeus. I have also seen your actions when facing Sisyphus, who was punished by the gods. Therefore, I have decided to hand it over to you for the time being."
Themis said as she handed the holy scales in her hand to Jason who was a little confused.
At this moment, not only Jason was a little confused, even Hermes who was watching from the side was a little confused.
"Jason, you deceived Hera, the Queen of the Gods, with a white lie... Although this was agreed upon by the gods, it was clearly unfair to Hera."
Knowing Jason's doubts, Themis calmly continued, "So now I give you this thing that can measure all things in the world... Jason, I will examine your answer. This is my test of you."
"Assessment?"
Jason and Hermes spoke at the same time.
"If you want to become an immortal god, you must first find a place to be a god."
Themis said to Jason calmly: "Jason, there is no place for you among the gods in this sky..."
"There are actually many vacancies in the throne of God." Hermes couldn't help but reply.
Themis tilted her head, her eyes covered by white cloth looking at Hermes.
Hermes shrank his head, smiled awkwardly, and retreated.
"Yes, there are many vacancies in the Olympian throne, but none of them belong to you, Jason."
"Because... you are the successor I chose."
Jason's eyes widened slightly.
Hermes, who was standing by, was also completely shocked at this moment.
"So until I give you up, you can't inherit any throne... Now, are you going to take over the scales?"
"...Great goddess Themis, I don't think I am qualified for your position..." Jason said with unusual honesty.
This is so inappropriate...
"Whether you are competent or not, I will give you a fair evaluation based on your actions." Themis interrupted Jason calmly.
"Now you just need to tell me whether you can accept this balance."
"...Goddess Themis, I think you are destined to be disappointed." Jason was silent for a while, then reached out to catch the holy scales.
After all, Jason had no reason to refuse.
Although it is true that this is a very troublesome thing.
But it is also a guarantee... Since Jason has become a candidate for the throne of Themis, then Themis, who is testing him, will undoubtedly become his protector!
And by the side, Hermes' reaction.
What a transcendent god Themis was, it has been fully demonstrated without a doubt.
Therefore, although Jason believed that this position was absolutely not suitable for him, he took into account that Themis pointed out the relationship between him and Queen Hera.
Obviously, it would be more profitable to agree to become a candidate now!
"I won't be disappointed, because in my eyes, there are only two results: suitable and unsuitable." Themis said lightly.
At the same time as she spoke, the holy scales emitted a dazzling white light and eventually turned into a mark, engraved on the back of Jason's left hand.
After the mark appeared on the back of Jason's left hand, this serious goddess looked at Hermes in disbelief.
Revealed, a faint chuckle.
"My child, remember, you are my only heir until I make the final decision, so..."
A smile flashed across Themis' face before she continued, "Before I make my final judgment, you must not touch any other divine position besides mine...even the Dark Night Priesthood of Nyx, the Goddess of Night."
Hmm...how do you know that Goddess Nyx said she wanted to pass her throne to me?
Wait, you didn't rush over to mark me because of this?!
Jason felt something was wrong in his heart. He felt as if he had accidentally fallen into a pit...
But no matter what Jason was thinking now, after doing all this, the blindfolded goddess turned around and disappeared into the temple.
"The goddess Themis's ministry... Jason, you're in big trouble."
This is the throne of the goddess Themis, who represents absolute justice.
And the throne of this god has the power to bind even the gods!
The scales in her left hand have the ability to measure everything in the world.
The sword in her right hand can cut off all injustice and evil.
Even if a god does something unfair, as long as it is judged by the scales in Themis's hand, her sword can kill it!
Why would such a great god choose Jason as his successor? In fact, not only Jason couldn't figure it out, but Hermes couldn't figure it out either.
But in short, things have come to this point, and Themis has left a mark on Jason's left hand.
After considering it to no avail, Jason had no choice but to continue walking with Hermes into the depths of the temple to meet the king of gods, Zeus, who sat on the throne of the gods!
Chapter 3.5: Face the God King Zeus! (k)
Silver arcs of electricity swam in the sky above the magnificent temple like thin snakes, and the dazzling lightning was intertwined with waves of destruction.
And under the thunder and lightning, the god sitting on the throne of the king of gods.
The moment Jason came in and cast his gaze upon her, she slowly opened her deep eyes.
Thunder is his symbol, the sky is his reflection, the gods are his subjects, he is none other than Zeus, the king of Olympus and the master of the world today!
Jason, this is the first time I meet him.
A silver-white robe covered his slender figure. Sitting on the magnificent throne, Zeus slowly lowered his head and looked down at Jason who came to pay him homage.
Looking at the shock in Jason's eyes.
That majestic face couldn't help but reveal a faint smile.
There was a look of satisfaction in his eyes.
It was worth it for him to prepare this specially.
"O Jason, the son of Hecate, the goddess of roads, who became the white-clad hero Heracles."
Zeus's majestic voice echoed throughout the temple.
This voice brought Jason back to his senses. As their eyes met, Zeus continued, "What do you want from me this time?"
As he spoke, Zeus' expression gradually became unnatural.
His eyes widened as he looked at Jason with shock.
Because he gradually noticed the mark left by the goddess Themis on Jason's left hand!
"Great and mighty Zeus, it is the honor of my lifetime to meet you."
Jason, having regained his composure, quickly bowed to Zeus and said, "I have come to discuss the wedding of Hades, the god of the underworld, and Persephone, the queen of the underworld."
"......Um."
Zeus maintained his composure and nodded seriously, but he couldn't help but look at Hermes with a questioning look in his eyes.
Hermes gave a wry smile, moved his lips slightly, and began to transmit his voice to explain the whole story to Zeus.
But at this point, Hermes actually had some enlightenment in his heart.
The fact that the second generation Queen of Heaven Rhea would go to see Jason is itself a surprising thing. Even if it is related to the current Queen Hera, it is unlikely that Rhea, a retired god, would show up.
But if it was not Rhea, the second-generation Queen of Heaven, but Themis, who represented absolute justice, who was truly interested in Jason, then everything would make sense.
