And isn’t this her temple, her home ground?
Athena, what are you doing?
"Ahem... Athena, you barged into my temple and contradicted me. Aren't you going to give me an explanation?!"
Upon hearing this, Athena glanced at Hera and then ignored her.
"Jason, are you okay now? Come, let me see..."
As she spoke, Athena moved towards Jason.
"No, no, Goddess Athena, Goddess Hera is still here..."
Jason hurried to stop her.
"Then it's okay if it's not here?"
"That's not what I meant... Isn't there something subtly wrong with this conversation?"
Jason was helpless and said to Athena who tilted her head: "Goddess Athena, I'm fine, thank you for your concern... I'm really fine!
And now, you see, Goddess Athena..."
Athena blinked slightly, she naturally understood what Jason meant.
For this, she pouted slightly.
Then he let go of Jason's hand, turned to Hera and said, "Great Goddess Hera, I am very sorry. Please forgive my unreasonable behavior just now."
After saying this, Athena turned around and disappeared into the temple in the blink of an eye.
Hera had black lines on her forehead because of this.
This insincere apology is worse than no apology at all. His words and actions are full of dissatisfaction, and the reason for this dissatisfaction obviously comes from Jason.
However, regarding this point, Hera said that she still had a lot to say.
Who did she offend...
Obviously, she did nothing wrong.
As she thought about it, Hera couldn't help feeling extremely aggrieved.
At this moment, she subconsciously lowered her head and her eyes met Jason's.
He lowered his head and looked at the golden dagger in his hand.
In an instant, Hera shuddered.
"Calm down, stop right there, calm down!"
Jason was stunned, looking at Hera's panic.
He followed her gaze and looked at the dagger in her hand.
Jason couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
At this moment, he naturally would not continue to move forward.
Ignorance is bliss. Now that he knew, Jason became a little timid.
After all, the divine thunder has the power to really kill him and destroy his soul.
But it was obvious that Hera didn't believe this at all now.
I recalled the scene just now when Jason was almost wiped out by the divine thunder.
Hera couldn't help but bite her lips tightly.
then......
She stepped out slowly.
After a mental struggle, she slowly walked down from the throne representing the Queen of Heaven.
Walking towards Jason step by step.
With every step, Hera's expression as she looked at Jason became more complicated.
And after a while, the noble Queen of Heaven came before Jason.
The complexity in Hera's eyes disappeared, leaving only a deep sigh.
"Tell me, what do you want me to do..."
"Honorable Goddess Hera, I simply wish to return this artifact to you..."
"You want my forgiveness, but you don't want to give anything in return." Hera looked at Jason and said, "Child, do you think this is possible?"
Jason shook his head.
"You know it's impossible." Hera was speechless, "Then why are you forcing me..."
"Because I know that if I had left just now, I would never have the chance to gain your forgiveness, Goddess Hera."
Jason replied softly to Hera.
Hearing this, Hera's eyes became complicated again: "You want me to forgive you?"
"Ah."
"...Don't you think you're incredibly greedy?"
"Of course I know," Jason said to Hera, "and I also know that all this is my own fault.
I don't even have the right to ask for Goddess Hera's forgiveness, but...if there's even a slight chance, I still want to give it a try!"
"Goddess Hera, I am a very timid person. I am afraid of my own fate and I will run away, but I also have my persistence.
At least, I know how to be grateful, so I cannot promise you, Goddess Hera, to leave teachers Hecate and Hephaestus.
But at the same time, I can't just leave you, Goddess Hera.
Goddess Hera, you are my savior and have taken care of me many times. I have seen it all..."
"All of this has already come to fruition." Hera interrupted Jason and said, "When you stabbed yourself with the dagger, it already had its result.
So you don't need to feel guilty towards me anymore, you have fulfilled your promise to me."
"If that's the case, then why are you unwilling to accept my return of this dagger, Goddess Hera?"
"Why should I accept it?" Hera looked at Jason unhappily and said, "I just don't want to forgive you. I want you to always remember that I haven't forgiven you. I want you to carry this dagger forever!"
"But even so, I still have to return this dagger to you."
Jason said, holding out the dagger to Hera.
"I still hope to be forgiven by Goddess Hera. I still hope to see you again in the future. I still hope you can give me another chance, a chance to make amends..."
"There's no need to make amends, as long as you're willing to leave them and come to me.
If you can’t do this, there’s nothing you can do to remedy the situation.”
Hera, keep clinging to this point.
But this is the natural result.
Because it was obvious from Hera's reactions that she had already forgiven Jason in her heart.
But she just couldn't get over this hurdle.
She was just angry that Jason, who should have belonged to her, was taken away by someone else, and she couldn't get him back no matter what.
Not only could I not get it back, but I couldn't bear to destroy it, so I could only let it be.
When had she, the great Queen Hera, ever suffered such a loss!
But this happens to be a dead end.
Chapter 4: The Result with Hera (k)
Ancient gods, magnificent temples.
There, under the throne of the Queen of Heaven, which represents absolute divine power.
Hera walked down from the Golden Throne and came before Jason.
And Jason also came here step by step from the bottom.
At this moment, the two of them stood in the middle of the path leading to the shrine.
At this point, Athena's goal has actually been achieved.
After experiencing all those things, Hera had let go of her hatred for Jason and came down from the high throne to stand before Jason.
Through his own efforts, Jason gained Hera's forgiveness and came to the Queen of Heaven Hera.
The result has come between the two of them, but... it's not complete.
Just like now, they were standing in the middle between the throne and the ground.
Jason did not actually walk up to the throne, and Hera did not completely step down from the throne.
Because Hera wanted Jason to leave Hecate and Hephaestus and come to her side.
But this is also Jason's bottom line.
Jason sighed softly, then slowly put down the golden dagger in his hand... under Hera's fixed gaze.
At this, Jason could not help but smile and said, "Goddess Hera, you don't have to be like this. I have already told you that I am actually a very timid person who is afraid of death.
Now, I probably don’t have the courage to stab myself with the dagger.”
Hera rolled her eyes at Jason's defense.
Although this was true, Hera would never believe it.
"...does it hurt?"
Hera was silent for a while, then asked Jason in a low voice.
Jason thought for a moment, then nodded honestly, "It hurts, but it doesn't matter now. Lord Tartarus, the god of the abyss, has lifted the curse for me."
"Silly child." Hera sighed helplessly and said, "Are you really not willing to leave them and come to me?"
"I'm sorry, Goddess Hera."
On this point, Jason was resolute. He shook his head and said to Hera, "Teacher Hecate and Teacher Hephaestus have been helping and caring for me all along. To make it up to you, Goddess Hera, I am willing to do anything you ask, but this one thing... I'm sorry!"
"That's a coincidence."
Hera smiled and said, "I don't want anything now. I just want to snatch you back from those two guys!"
"It seems that this dagger will not be returned today."
Jason said helplessly as he was about to take back the dagger.
Hera suddenly reached out and held him down.
"Bring it here."
"Huh?" Jason blinked at Hera.
"I'm worried about leaving it with you."
Hera said to Jason expressionlessly.
Jason was stunned for a moment, looking at Hera in front of him.
Then he looked up, at the throne above, the ground below, and finally at Hera in front of him.
After a slight smile, he did not hand the dagger to Hera, but took it back.
Under Hera's slightly hesitant and puzzled gaze.
"I will definitely return it to you, honorable goddess Hera."
This dagger originated from the agreement between Jason and Hera.
It represents Hera's trust and love for Jason, but also her hatred for him.
Seeing this, Jason returned the dagger to Hera, because only by returning it could it mean that Hera had let go of her hatred for him.
