Now the Golden Fleece Road officially sets sail!

Chapter 5: Argonaut's Main Gun, Fire! (k)

"I've been waiting for you."

"I've been waiting for you."

Atalanta was stunned for a moment, looking at Jason who was smiling and looking at her.

A little silence...

"Sorry." Atalanta put down her hand and lowered her head slightly. "I was a little too excited..."

"fine."

Jason said, reaching out and picking the weeds off her head.

Looking at Atalanta in front of him, whose hair was a little messy and whose expression showed that she could not hide her fatigue, Jason did not know what exactly had happened.

But he understood that Atalanta must be trying her best to come.

Atalanta was indeed trying her best to come here. Ever since the day when Apollo, the god of light, asked Artemis, the goddess of the moon, to stop, there was no obstacle in front of Atalanta.

Atalanta never stopped or rested from that day on.

Chasing all the way from the distant Greek mainland.

Simultaneously,

Coming from the sky, like a star-studded hero...

It was obvious that it was an old friend who had brought Atalanta to Jason like a falling star.

Tianma, Brother Ma.

So now, while looking at Atalanta in front of him.

Jason looked up at the sky, a hint of worry in his eyes.

After all, Brother Ma, that is...

"That Pegasus... could it be that child of Hercules?"

He had been observing Hera in secret, frowning slightly, and then came to the stars.

Just as she was tracking the traces of magic left by Brother Ma, the goddess of night, Nyx, came to Hera.

"Queen Hera, what are you looking for?"

"Goddess Nyx, why are you here?"

Above the stars, there is the great primordial god, the goddess Nyx, who is dressed in black clothes as dazzling as the stars.

She appeared before Hera.

At the same time, they looked down at the two children who had finally reunited.

She smiled faintly, and couldn't help but think of Atalanta who had just arrived and was standing on the shore, gazing at the endless sea with a look of regret and pain on her face.

Apparently, Nyx had helped her.

Seeing that scenery, Nyx brought the Pegasus...Brother Horse, who was docked in the underworld and the Temple of Hecate.

"I felt sorry for the child, so I sent him over."

Nyx did not directly answer Hera's question, but pointed at Atalanta below.

"...You did it?"

Hera was stunned.

"Yes." Nyx nodded slightly, "I'll ask Tianma to send the child over."

As he spoke, Nyx smiled softly, and several Pegasus pulled a carriage into view.

Seeing this, Hera dispelled her doubts.

And at this moment, a holy Pegasus quietly walked out from the hiding of the veil of night.

It glanced at Jason on the Argo below, then turned around and took advantage of Hera being dragged by Nyx.

It turned into a shooting star under the moon and disappeared into the night.

When Pegasus left, Jason, who had been looking at the sky, saw the passing meteor and the slightly nervous expression on his face relaxed.

It's okay...

After being with Brother Ma for so long, we still have some tacit understanding.

Jason withdrew his gaze and looked at Atalanta again.

Atalanta, who was also looking up at the sky, happened to lower her head when she saw the meteor passing by.

Their eyes met again.

Then the two of them fell into silence for some reason.

The silent silence was finally broken by a little bird crawling out of Atalanta's arms.

After the little bird crawled out, its eyes lit up when it saw the blond and blue-eyed Jason in front of it.

Then it flew up excitedly, chirping to Jason to indicate that it had completed the task.

Jason couldn't help but laugh when he saw the little bird flapping its wings excitedly and telling its story.

"Okay, I see. Thank you very much..."

As Jason spoke, he skillfully took out the food he had prepared long ago and placed it in his hand, letting the bird land on his hand.

Then Jason looked up again, looking at Atalanta who was silently tidying up her messy hair, and said with a smile: "And thank you, Atalanta."

"Thank me for what?" Atalanta looked at Jason in confusion.

"Thank you for coming here after receiving my invitation... You must be tired from the journey, right?"

"Yeah, I don't know which god has such a refined taste."

Atalanta sighed.

She's not stupid, and it's hard not to be aware of so many messy things she encounters on the road.

Her only doubt was why the moon goddess Artemis didn't hear her pious prayers...

Jason smiled softly and added, "Thank you for coming to Atalanta."

"That's not necessary. After all, it's your invitation."

To this, Atalanta gave a calm answer.

"and......"

Atalanta raised the corner of her mouth slightly and said, "This is the first time you have come to me and invited me."

In the past, it was Atalanta who was looking for him, inviting him, and waiting for him.

"But since you said so, then..."

Atalanta paused for a moment, then smiled at Jason and said, "I'm here... I think I've finally caught up with you, Jason."

The bright moonlight shone on the two of them.

The sea level under the moon appears very calm and beautiful.

But alas, beautiful things are only temporary.

"cough."

A light cough broke the atmosphere of the two people staring at each other.

The Argonaut, the ship spirit, walked out in the moonlit sea breeze, with her long light blue hair fluttering.

Hmm... I wonder if the goddess in the bright moonlight tonight will give a thumbs up to this ship spirit girl after seeing this.

"I'm sorry to bother you, Master Jason... but right now, I need your instructions."

The ship spirit in a maid outfit said this as she came in front of the two of them.

"...Master Jason?"

Atalanta looked at Jason.

His expression was very calm.

But faced with this calm gaze, Jason instinctively gave an immediate explanation: "She is the Argo, the spirit of the ship we are on."

"Yes, I am the spirit of the Argo, created by the noble and great goddesses Hephaestus, Hecate, and Athena."

The ship spirit also gave an appropriate explanation, saying: "And Jason is my master, the owner of the Argo."

"I've told you many times that you really don't have to call me Master. I don't like it..."

"Then Master Jason, can you tell me what you like?"

The ship spirit kept smiling and said to Jason, "I am a creation of Hephaestus, the god of craftsmen. Although I cannot change myself immediately, I can record it. The next time I see the noble goddess Hephaestus, I can ask for a re-creation."

"And Master Jason, you are my master, the eternal master, and this is an unchangeable fact, so please allow me to call you Master."

The ship spirit expressed its unwavering loyalty to Jason.

It’s just that the occasions…some of them aren’t very good.

"...You are still so loved, Jason."

Atalanta remained calm and said indifferently.

But Atalanta was quite used to it.

"Well, this... ahem, Argo, didn't you say you needed my instructions? What happened?"

Jason wisely changed the subject.

"Yes, Master Jason." Upon hearing this, the ship spirit's expression grew serious. He extended his hand and pointed forward, saying, "Master, a huge monster has appeared a hundred kilometers ahead. It is extremely hostile and is approaching this way.

Master Jason, please give the order!"

"Monster?"

Jason was stunned.

"One hundred kilometers?"

Atalanta was also stunned.

"Yes, Master Jason." The ship spirit nodded and said, "This is the result of the magical detection designed by the goddess Hecate."

"Hmm...what kind of monster is it?"

Jason thought for a moment and then asked.

"...a giant crab."

Looking at the ship spirit a hundred kilometers away, after a period of exploration, it finally gave an accurate reply.

Remember the story of Hercules and the Hydra?

In that story, in order to get rid of Hercules, Hera sent a giant crab to help the nine-headed Hydra.

Its pincers almost snapped Hercules in half, but fortunately Hercules was wearing an invulnerable lion coat, so he was finally safe.

And finally, he killed the nine-headed Hydra with its poison.

Because of Jason's joining, Cancer did not appear at that time.

But it is clear that at this moment it is late but it has arrived.

This is naturally the suffering given by Hera.

But she really didn't expect that she would be discovered tonight.

Hera has already given orders for Cancer to appear early tomorrow morning.
