Even so, I felt a little strange in my heart.

But for him, meeting the goddess and being loved by her...is finally a daily occurrence, ahem.

So he naturally didn't know how red Athena's face was when she fled. At the same time, she didn't need anyone to say anything to her. She just walked along, secretly cursing her own disappointment all the way...

Chapter 3 Cupid's Golden Arrow (k)

Jason,

This is the name of a great hero in ancient Greek mythology.

He was a disciple of the Centaur sage Chiron, and it was also led by him that the quest for the Golden Fleece, which shocked the world and became widely known to later generations, was launched.

When talking about him, there are undoubtedly three things that impressed me the most.

The Argo, carrying many heroes.

The rare treasure Golden Fleece.

And then there is his wife, the treacherous witch Medea!

Kingdom of Colchis.

early morning,

Inside the magnificent temple.

The little princess of Colchis, a beloved girl, was sitting in the middle of it. She clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and prayed quietly to the gods.

And at this time.

"Medea, you are really hardworking." The pink-haired, rainbow-eyed witch Circe walked in and interrupted the girl's pious prayer.

Then the girl opened her beautiful amethyst eyes, slowly stood up, turned and looked at Circe.

The Witch of Temptation and Fall, her aunt.

He was also the first disciple of Hecate.

The senior sister of Jason and Medea.

Medea quietly watched Circe, who was coming over and yawning as if she had just woken up, and said, "Aunt, why haven't you left yet?"

Circe was stunned for a moment, then a few dark lines appeared on her face. She said, "I say, can't you change the name? Even calling me Senior Sister is fine!"

"No," Medea replied calmly, "because you didn't fulfill your promise to me, and you became interested in my brother."

"I didn't make any agreement with you. It was you who said that unilaterally!" Circe said, "Besides, it's not me who wanted to come. The teacher asked me to come and said there was something he wanted me to take care of, and..."

As she spoke, Circe looked at Medea.

"...Teacher, you worry too much." Medea sighed softly, "How could anything possibly happen between me and my elder brother?"

"I hope so... Hey, take your time to pray. I'm leaving now. Remember to call me when it's time for dinner."

Circe said this, glancing around the temple, and when she found nothing, she turned and left.

Medea watched her leave until Circe disappeared from her sight.

"Goddess Clotho, you are here, aren't you?"

Medea suddenly spoke softly.

And said the name of a strange goddess.

But she is actually not unfamiliar.

Clotho, one of the three goddesses of fate.

The youngest, Clotho, governs the future and weaves the thread of life; the second oldest, Lachesis, maintains the thread of life; and the eldest, Atropos, governs death.

They appeared once before, and it was they who responded to Zeus and gave him the prophecy of the impending appearance of Typhon, the ancestor of all demons.

At the same time, Clotho, the youngest goddess of fate, also said in that prophecy that she saw a future that was completely different from her two sisters.

Clotho's two sisters both saw that the great hero Hercules could bring victory to the Olympian gods in the battle against Typhon, the ancestor of all demons.

But only Cloto saw a different picture.

In addition to Hercules, she saw another figure.

And that person was a handsome man with blond hair and blue eyes, dressed in white.

Yes, it is Jason today!

"Well, I'm here, Medea."

Shortly after Medea finished speaking, a beautiful goddess appeared in front of her from the shadows with a faint smile on her face.

This person is none other than Clotho, the youngest of the three goddesses of fate, the goddess who controls the future and weaves the thread of life!

There is a very famous story about the great goddess Clotho.

According to legend, during the Trojan War, the immortal Greek warrior Achilles was invincible and invulnerable to swords and spears. The Greeks led by him entered the city of Troy, and Troy was about to suffer the fate of massacre.

At this critical moment, thousands of people knelt on the ground and prayed for God's blessing and the favor of the goddess of fate.

Clotho couldn't bear it. She couldn't remain indifferent to the tragic deaths of so many innocent people.

So Clotho told the soldiers guarding the city about Achilles' weakness, and the latter was shot by the Trojan prince Paris in the only fatal point on his body - the ankle, and died.

Clotho is the goddess of fate who represents the future.

Although everyone has their own destiny and fate varies from person to person, most Westerners still firmly believe that fate can be changed.

Of course, the premise is that the goddess of fate will show leniency.

Therefore, people always like to pray for the favor of the goddess of fate at critical moments. Although this sounds a bit like "last-minute help", people still flock to it.

"Good morning, Goddess Clotho."

Medea bowed respectfully to Clotho.

Clotho chuckled, walked to Medea's side, and said, "There's no need for that. Medea, we've known each other for such a long time... By the way, your elder brother is about to arrive, and he'll probably be here in half a month at most.

And you...are you ready?"

As he spoke, Clotho looked at Medea in front of him with anticipation.

Have you known each other for so long?

I wonder if you remember that when Jason's three-year term was over and he was thrown out of the underworld by Hecate, he had a conversation with Medea when he came out of the mountain?

At that time, Medea almost told Jason directly that she already knew what would happen in the future.

That's right, it was Cloto who told her everything!

Many gods in ancient Greece had the ability to see the future and make predictions.

Therefore, although Jason noticed it at the time, he did not think too much about it.

As for why Clotho contacted Medea and showed great interest, it all started with the prophecy of the three goddesses in the Temple of Olympus that day.

Clotho made a prophecy that neither of his two sisters saw, but she didn't know who it was. It was not until Athena finally reminded her that she realized that the person was Jason.

In this way, even though they knew that Jason was a disciple of Hecate, the goddess of roads, they could not even see him and could only see his vague figure.

Clotho, the goddess of fate who controls the future, naturally became interested.

It was not difficult for Clotho to see Jason's original fate.

As for why he found Medea... Clotho really had no idea about it.

Because there are really too many gods surrounding Jason.

And the level is a bit high.

Even she has to stand aside!

In addition, when Hera learned that her child had been taken away, her anger almost shook the entire Olympus.

Kroto naturally had no interest in getting involved in this bad luck.

Let's wait for Athena, who can handle anything, to resolve this bad luck.

Almost all gods thought so, and Athena actually did it...

I've gone off topic. The question is, why Medea?

As mentioned above, the three most profound impressions left by the hero Jason, besides the Argo and the rare treasure Golden Fleece, are Medea!

And she can be said to be the absolute central figure of the original hero Jason!

"......Um."

Clotho asked Medea if she was ready.

Medea, who remained silent for a long time, finally gave an affirmative response.

Then, she lightly tapped the staff in her hand and took out a golden bow and arrow from a magic circle.

This is the bow and arrow that Clotho borrowed for Medea.

It is also the glorious beginning and the source of tragedy for the hero Jason.

This bow and arrow is called...Cupid's Arrow!

Then why is Medea the absolute central figure in the original hero Jason?

Because it was Medea's help that gave the hero Jason his most dazzling time.

At the same time, it was also because of Medea that Jason had his darkest moment!

The culprit behind all this is the arrow of Cupid!

The only difference from the original fate was that Hera sought help from the god of love in order to help Jason, and Cupid shot a golden arrow to each of them.

As a result, in the original story, Medea fell madly in love with Jason.

And now, Jason has already walked on the absolutely correct path guided by wisdom.

So Cupid originally had nothing to do, but Clotho... brought him back!

However, she didn't do anything excessive.

And they didn't dare, because behind Medea was Hecate, and behind Hecate was the goddess Nyx.

So she brought the bow and arrow after consulting Medea for her consent.

And he shot one of the golden arrows, which represented absolute love, at Medea.

And the other golden arrow that matched it is now on this bow...

So, what Kroto said here, whether you are ready, actually refers to.

"Are you ready to draw Cupid's bow and shoot the golden arrow to your beloved brother?"

Clotho said to Medea with a smile.

Medea did not respond immediately.

She simply pulled the bowstring of the golden bow in her hand, her eyes fixed on the bow and the paired golden arrows.

a long time......

"I will."

Medea finally gave her answer, saying, "I will draw this bow myself and shoot the golden arrow...at my lord brother!"

Medea's voice was soft but firm.

Obviously, he has made up his mind!

As she spoke these words, a silent sigh suddenly sounded from the shadows of the temple.

A dark butterfly fluttered and danced in the shadows, flapping its wings, dropping faint dark light dust, and then disappeared into the darkness.

Now, the time has passed since the Argo arrived in Colchis and obtained the Golden Fleece...

Right in front of you!
