Chapter 92

Yes, Chiron is a god.

As a god, when Chiron asks a question in his heart, he has the answer.

In other words, he already knew the answer, but he never paid attention to it, paid attention to it, and cared about it.

Now, he suddenly cared.

Because of a person who doesn't know whether his name is Kata or Ka Suo.

As for his name?
It doesn't matter, Chiron feels that he has an infinitely long time to get close to him, to understand him deeply, to be his teacher, and to guide him.

But if he fails, everything will become a dream, and the meeting between the two will only be a momentary memory.

Hope... it will work.

……

Back from the village to the shore of the sea, Chiron made a move.

He changes back into the form of a centaur.

The meager beliefs gathered around him were turned into a blade by him, and then fell down blatantly.

As if encountering flowing water, the blade did not meet any barriers, and Chiron's only remaining arm fell down.

Now, he has lost all his arms.

And what about the other arm?

In ancient times, because of some unspeakable people, some unexplorable things, Chiron had already cut it off by himself.

Over the years, out of fear and caution, he never repaired them.

Now, it's time.

When he lost his power, he also lost the threat that he might bring to others.

Yes, with the departure of the severed hand, he is no longer a "god", or in other words, he is weaker and no longer qualified to be called a god.

In the human world, the existence of half-human, half-god is called a hero. At this moment, Chiron is so weak that he can only be called a "hero".

He has nothing to offer but the pure essence of the god.

Perhaps, his archery that dared to challenge the sun can barely be regarded as a kind.

But, he failed, didn't he?

And, can he really draw his bow to the sun again?Once again, challenge the strong as the weak?
He is old and has lost the vigor of his youth, and everything has become uncertain.

but.

Just like the initiative and weakness of the gods, wasn't it also an uncertain thing before Chiron?
All the gods are thinking of becoming stronger, never thinking of weakening themselves.

So it is obviously a very simple thing, but it has not been proven for a long time.

Only by doing it, whether you succeed or fail, can you get an answer.

Now that Chiron has done it, he has no scruples at all.

Two arms that could draw a bow grew out of his half-human, half-horse body.

He also became weaker because of it.

But Chiron didn't care.

He picked up the severed hand with his new arm and threw it far into the sea.

This broken arm contains the most fundamental part of Chiron's god essence. This is a rather illusory thing, and it is a definite thing that only gods can feel and understand.

In abandoning it, Chiron abandoned a part of himself as a god.From then on, the power is far away, and the authority that will be bred is also far away.

Of course, this also means that Chiron has completely become the loser in the Faith War, and he is also the first person to be out.

He has lost the qualification to be regarded as a competitor by other gods.

Feeling the greatly reduced, obscure or arrogant direct sight on his body, Chiron chose a direction to step into the sea, a direction away from the severed hand.

As a result, the attention that Chiron could feel was completely gone.

After he left, the severed hand disappeared out of thin air, and it became the collection of some god.

And Chiron took this opportunity to return to the place where the journey began, the island from which he started.

He knelt and dug on the sandy beach of the island with his new, not as good arms as before, and dug out an old box.

Open the box, and inside is the collection of the god.

There are coins circulating in the mortal world, precious jewelry, and unique and colorful seashells by the sea, all of which are gadgets belonging to the mortal world.

Chiron took these gadgets out in piles, and saw a leaf surrounded by bright light.

The texture of this leaf is so simple, yet so sacred, I don't know which forest fairy's residence it was stolen from...

To most gods, this thing is worthless.

But to Chiron, it was precious.

He carefully put the lingering leaves into his arms, and then his movements became much rougher.

He directly clasped the edge of the old box with his newborn arm, and then turned the box upside down with a flick of his wrist.

The gadgets inside were poured out one by one, forming a "hill" of treasures.

A quiver and a wooden bow lie quietly on top of the "hill".

Chiron tossed the ancient box aside, then looked towards the hill.

He turned a blind eye to those treasures, but just stared at the wooden bow and quiver above the "hill".

His new arms touched them lightly, as if greeting an old friend.

The quiver is full of arrow branches and ready to use.There are scorched marks on the wooden bow, accompanied by a woody fragrance, as if telling the story of the man who dared to shoot the bow and arrow to the sun.

Coincidentally, the material of this wooden bow seems to come from the same source as the leaves that were solemnly hidden by Chiron...

Chiron took them, and with them stepped into the sea.

Unlike the previous trips, he entered the depths of the sea, but did not reach the bottom of the sea.

This may be because the sea is nominally owned by Pontos's wife, Sea Goddess Tower LS, and it is her territory.

But there are also divisions within the ocean.

Poseidon, the god of the sea on Mount Olympus, still has a small share of the ocean, perhaps because he married a good wife.

Chiron circumvented these areas carefully, choosing to walk in the areas attributed to Oceanus Oceanus and Sea Goddess Tesis.

Although the past has been sealed, although the gods who hide behind the scenes have never shown up.

However, Chiron knew what was going on.

He just doesn't have the strength.

In the current territory of the two, he is safe.

At least, for the time being, it's safe.

He gradually approached the land in the sea, and after changing his human form, he floated up to the inside of a mountain along a dark river.

This will also be the way for him to go back. After Chiron remembered this place, he officially entered the earth.

Following the despised means left behind, he found the person he was looking for in a wealthy family in the world.

It was a rich man living alone.

But Chiron knew that he was not, he was just an unknown who should have died long ago.

Chiron was far away from him, very far away, and then stretched his bow and arrow in the distance, holding his breath, the distance was no more, no less, exactly what mortals said was eight hundred miles.

He knew that he only had one chance, so with this arrow, he gave up everything.

Following the feeling of the means left behind, he hummed softly in his mouth: "Dreams are something like this, if you don't chase after it, you will always feel unwilling."

"Growing old with regrets, only remorse is left in the memories..."

The sound fell, and the arrow shot out, passing through the heart, nailing the rich man living alone to the ground.

Chiron knew he had succeeded, and he set off at full speed.

Under the watchful struggle of the person lying on the ground, he skillfully did everything he should do.

He first prayed to the fool Epimetheus, then took the dagger from the rich man's waist and cut off his arm.

He grafted the heart, replaced the new arm with the severed arm, and finally took out a burning fennel branch from the belly of the rich man. The next hair belongs to the horse.

Chiron endured the burning pain and quickly evacuated from the scene.

He returned to the island along the same road, and only did one thing all day long.

Pray, pray to the master of the flame...
