Type-Moon Greece, I really don't want to be a hero!

"Chirp—!"

The Pegasus flying in the blue sky suddenly stopped.

Then he turned to look at Jason and called out softly twice.

Jason was slightly stunned when he heard this. After he understood what Tianma meant, a helpless expression appeared on his face, and he nodded to Tianma.

So the Pegasus changed direction, flapped its wings, and flew towards somewhere in the forest.

"Did something happen?"

Because they were falling, Atalanta, who was sitting in the back, couldn't help but reach out and grab the corner of Jason's clothes.

"It's an old trick. Looks like we're almost there... Anyway, you'll know soon enough."

Jason had a wry smile on his face.

At the same time, I felt a little relieved.

This unreliable Brother Ma finally knew to remind himself...

Then Pegasus brought the two of them to a ghostly place, and Jason had just gotten off the Pegasus.

The goddess who had been waiting for a long time rushed over and held her in her arms.

"You're not being obedient, little Jason... I was the first one to ask you for tribute, but you still haven't prepared anything for me."

A soft voice with a hint of complaint sounded in Jason's ear, and the familiar soft feeling came to Jason again... Hestia, the eldest sister of the Olympian gods and one of the three virgin goddesses, appeared.

She hugged Jason, puffed out her lips, pinched Jason's cheeks, and complained softly to Jason.

Because he had been prepared, Jason did not seem so flustered this time...but Atalanta, who had not yet dismounted from the Pegasus and was keeping her eyes wide open, obviously did not understand the situation for a moment.

"No, noble goddess Hestia, how could I forget my tribute to you? I have always kept it in my heart!"

Jason quickly replied to Hestia, "Noble and considerate goddess Hestia, you know I've been on the go... But don't worry, I'll be offering tribute to you soon. I promise!"

Hestia heard this and thought about it, and it seemed to be true.

"Little Jason is still the best." So Hestia stopped pinching Jason's face and stroked his head lovingly, saying, "But this is also because I like you, little Jason, so I am so looking forward to your tribute.

By the way, little Jason, I haven't seen you for a while, and you've grown a bit taller... After a while, if I want to touch your head, little Jason, I'll have to tiptoe to do it."

Hestia said with a smile, then turned her head to look at Atalanta.

At this moment, Atalanta came to her senses, got off the Pegasus and looked at the beautiful goddess with long brown hair looking at her. Naturally, she did not dare to neglect her.

At the same time, he also understood what Jason had just said.

So just as she stepped forward, bowed to Hestia, and was about to say something.

Hestia walked up to her and said, "You must be Artemis's child, the Atalanta she often mentioned... Well, she is really cute."

Hestia looked at Atalanta, who was wearing beautiful emerald green clothes, then looked at Jason and nodded with a satisfied smile.

Atalanta couldn't help but feel a little confused about Hestia's behavior, and Jason felt a little overwhelmed... because the last time they met, Hestia seemed to be somewhat concerned about this matter.

She also advised Jason to find a partner, and even directly told Jason to find his sister Medea, and Atalanta...

"Goddess Hestia, may I ask what brings you to me this time? ... Goddess Hestia, you are aware of the matter that Hermes entrusted to me regarding Io..."

Jason quickly changed the subject, allowing Hestia to regain her focus.

"Well, the reason I came to see Jason this time was actually about Io... It was because of a request from Io's father, Inachus."

Hestia, whose thoughts had wandered, came back to her senses and immediately told Jason and Atalanta the whole story.

It turned out that after returning to this land, Io was lucky enough to meet her father and brothers and sisters.

Although Io turned into a cow, her mind was not damaged, which allowed her to write a line on the ground with her feet, telling her the true identities of her father and brothers.

King Inachus was heartbroken when he saw that his once beloved daughter had turned into a heifer.

And when he was ready to take her away.

The hundred-eyed giant Argus came out, snatched Io from Inachus's hands, led her away, and then took Io to the highest mountain around, where he is currently grazing Io.

"...Later, Io's father, Inachus, came to me for help. He and his children kept crying before me, so I granted their request."

"I see." Jason nodded to Hestia in sudden realization and said, "Don't worry, Goddess Hestia. I will take care of Io's affairs and rescue her!"

After all, even if Hestia didn't come out, Jason would rescue Io because of Hestia's tribute.

"Well, of course I believe you, little Jason...but I want you to go see Inachus this time and tell him that you will go to save Io."

Hearing this, Jason looked at Hestia who was smiling and speaking softly to him, and said hesitantly: "Goddess Hestia, this..."

"Little Jason, I know you don't want fame, but I've already promised Inachus that a hero riding a Pegasus and dressed in white will save his poor daughter... So you must go meet Inachus, so that he can put his mind at ease!"

After hearing what Hestia said, Jason felt helpless, but he could only nod to Hestia.

"That's good, little Jason... Actually, I've always felt it was a pity that few people in the world today know your name, little Jason."

Hestia caressed Jason's face lovingly and said, "You are so kind and lovely! Your fame should be sung by bards across the continent and passed down through the ages!"

Atalanta listened to Hestia's words and looked at Jason, who had a helpless look on his face, with a "Don't, don't!" written all over his face.

I couldn't help but think of the days we spent together these days.

After spending these few days together, Jason...once again convinced Atalanta of her seriousness towards him!

Of course, this time it’s not a good thing, but a bad thing.

Because in the past two days, Jason had been finding various ways to take away the wild animals she had hunted as rewards, and they were all meat she had already roasted.

After two or three days, Atalanta, who had only eaten dry food for two or three days, could no longer sit still and brought back all the prey for Jason.

But every time Jason would deliberately wait until she was done before coming over to pick up the ready-made...

Isn’t it said that this guy is very hardworking and has not slept for three years while studying with his teacher? He is very diligent and hardworking.

Goddess Artemis, have you been deceived?

Obviously, what Atalanta didn't know was that Jason had a criminal record of not studying hard and almost angering the Centaur sage Chiron to death!

Chapter 4.5 I Just Want to Survive (k)

"You truly are...loved by the gods."

After bidding farewell to the goddess Hestia and heading towards the kingdom as Hestia pointed out, Atalanta couldn't help but say to Jason.

On Pegasus, Jason was slightly stunned when he heard Atalanta's words with a hint of envy, and a faint bitter smile appeared on his face.

However, Atalanta, who was sitting behind Jason, naturally couldn't see it.

"Hmm... maybe."

Jason said calmly, "Although I am only a tiny, insignificant human, it is truly an honor for me to be so loved by the great gods... Atalanta, you think so too, don't you?"

To this day, Jason no longer denies that he is loved by the gods... After all, Jason has seen the twelve gods of Mount Olympus and even more ancient gods, such as the second queen Rhea.

I guess there are very few legends in mythological history books that can achieve this... After so long, Jason still has a certain self-awareness.

Yes, I am indeed favored by the gods... However,

Is this really a good thing?

If so, this is really a great thing.

Then, after seeing Jason's "miracle", Hecate would not have said that the fate of those favored by the gods and those destroyed by the gods lies on a thin line.

However, for those who live in this world, are born and raised here, let alone the lucky ones like Atalanta, who survived because of meeting the goddess since childhood and even received the goddess's blessing.

This must be a good thing, something to be envied.

therefore......

"of course."

Atalanta's answer was very natural. "It is our great honor to be favored by the gods!"

"......Yeah."

Jason turned around and glanced at Atalanta.

Then a faint smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Come to think of it... Atalanta, this is why you decided to follow me on this trip, right?"

Atalanta was slightly stunned.

"You came with me because you wanted to see what kind of person I am, the one favored by the gods, right?"

This is true.

This was what had always attracted Atalanta to Jason.

After all, three years ago, Artemis' love for Jason left a very deep impression on Atalanta.

Not to mention that at that time there was not only Artemis, but also Apollo, Athena, Jason's teacher Hecate and other noble gods.

And now, after experiencing the incident with the Calydonian boar and seeing more things on Jason, it was hard for Atalanta not to pay attention to Jason.

Why on earth could he be favored by so many gods? ...It was precisely for this reason that Atalanta chose to follow Jason on this journey.

"......Yes."

Now that Jason had pointed it out, Atalanta, who had been silent for a while, readily admitted it, saying, "And the goddess Artemis told me that if I want to know the answer, I just need to watch you closely."

"Oh, did you find the answer?"

"No." Atalanta answered without hesitation, "Instead, I'm even more confused!"

Jason turned his head to look at Atalanta, but was glared at by Atalanta in return... Apparently, Atalanta had accumulated a certain degree of dissatisfaction with Jason over the past few days.

"Why are the gods paying so much attention to me? ...To be honest, I don't really understand."

Jason smiled softly and turned his head to the side.

As expected, compared to Medea, Atalanta is obviously more adorable.

At the same time, this thought came to Jason's mind.

It was originally very simple. Even if you include the fateful meeting three years ago, the time Jason and Atalanta had known each other was no more than about half a month.

But in just half a month, Jason had already clearly understood what kind of person Atalanta was.

He spent three whole years with Medea, his lovely sister and senior.

Jason often didn't know what Medea was thinking.

A girl who is too smart... isn't really that cute to Jason.

"If you can find the answer, I actually hope you can tell me."

"Why?" Atalanta felt a little confused when she heard this.

"Because then...I can change it!"

With a slight chuckle, Jason gently pulled the reins of the Pegasus in his hand. The Pegasus whinnied softly and dived towards the kingdom that was already visible below.

Atalanta was startled by this sudden move and subconsciously reached out and hugged Jason.

......

......

evening,

In the kingdom of Io's father, King Inachus.

As night was about to fall, there were slightly more people walking around in the kingdom than usual.

In this world, life at night is not very rich.

Even if it is rich, it is only for the powerful nobles.

Jason and Atalanta were walking on the street, and Pegasus was abandoned by Jason, who let it wander around on its own during this time.

As for the two future people, Jason and Atalanta, although they attracted the attention of some people, they did not cause any commotion.

After all, he is a magician... Although he has not yet graduated from the goddess Hecate, Jason can still use simple disguise magic.

It would be strange if Jason didn't learn such a practical and simple magic.

Therefore, what appeared in the eyes of the ordinary people around him was not only the handsome Jason, but also the extraordinarily beautiful hunter.
