Ares, God of War

"What's going on?" Seeing Apollo's hesitation and not saying the whole thing, Ares felt that there was something tricky in it, so he asked.

Under his repeated questioning, Apollo, the god of light, finally confided the truth to him.

It turned out that just some time ago, Apollo's lover "Yacintos" accidentally injured a discus thrown by himself and died during a date. Apollo was distraught, but during this time, he was with another A woman named Koronis fell in love.

All kinds of things that happened during this period are not commendable. In short, this woman later became pregnant with his child, but fell in love with another man named Isnis in the process. A crow came to tell Apollo the secret, and Apollo In a rage, he shot the woman directly, and her lover Isnis was also shot dead by Apollo's sister Artemis.

But at this time, because Colonis was already pregnant, Apollo cut open her stomach again before her cremation, and took out the child who was still alive in her stomach.

It's nothing, in this era, even if the king is betrayed, many will kill their own queens, from gods to mortals, the status of women in the age of gods is generally lower than that of men, except for Ares, who has come from twenty-one People with a century concept rarely treat women in the same position as themselves as equals.

Not to mention that Apollo is still a lofty god. From the current point of view, his reputation among the general public in the Greek world is higher than Ares, Zeus, etc. Such a male god is hated, and he just killed adulterers With one's own woman, it is considered kindness for the Greeks.

However, after finishing speaking, Apollo said in a low voice with some shame:

"Actually, Colonis didn't betray me. Isnis is just her servant, and nothing happened between them..."

"Ah?" Ares widened his eyes when he heard the words: "Then you killed the wrong person, didn't you?"

"Yeah." Apollo coughed and muttered, "So I turned the crow that told me black, but Koronis' soul has gone to the underworld, and I can't get it back. I can only find a way to make up for her."

"Oh." Ares thought for a while: "So what does this have to do with you coming to me? I can't go to the underworld to help you get her soul back."

In fact, it is possible, but Ares and Hecate don't want to set a precedent for this kind of thing.

"This..." Apollo waved to Ares with some hesitation: "You will know when you come with me."

Ares followed Apollo suspiciously and came to his temple of light. In the temple, Ares saw a small cradle with a white-haired baby boy holding his thumb in the cradle. , fell asleep quietly.

"His name is Asclepius, and he is the child of Colones and me."

Apollo scratched his blond hair in distress, and said:

"But he's just a demigod, Mount Olympus can't accept him, and I don't know where to raise him..."

"Why didn't you think about this when you were having sex?" Ares asked with a pair of dead fish eyes.

"Hey." The God of Light smiled in a low voice, a little embarrassed: "At that time, how could I have thought about this?"

Ares stared at the baby and asked again:

"What did you say his name was?"

"Asclepius."

Asclepius... oh, the Greek Hua Tuo.

Ares also remembered the legend of this child. Asclepius is the best medical person in the Greek world, and he also has a heart that hangs the pot to help the world. With his efforts, the number of dead in the whole of Greece has decreased a lot, haha For a time, there were no ghosts in Diss' Hades.

And Asclepius' medical skills have also reached the level of being able to snatch people under Hades' hands. What he is most talked about is the immortality that he concocted with the blood of Gorgon bestowed by Athena. medicine.

However, because Asclepius's medical skills were too superb, Zeus felt that if this continued, human beings would no longer be afraid of death, and his authority as a god-king would disappear, so he simply sent down a thunderbolt and directly killed the innocent Ah. Sclepius was struck dead.

This god of medicine is also one of the heroes on the Argo, and he is also the hero that Ares plans to grab a wave of. So, after thinking about it, Ares said to Apollo:

"This is easy. I know a dad who is the best at taking care of children in the world. Let me help you hand over this child to him to raise."

ps: According to the mythological data, Perseus is actually the great-grandfather of Hercules, and Alcmene is the granddaughter of Perseus.

Let’s not mention Zeus’s trivial behavior for the time being, because there are many sects in Greek mythology, so the timeline is already very chaotic. Each sect has its own opinion on mythology, and many places do not match, so I let time serve my plot up.

Chapter 74. Educators

"Chiron, this child will trouble you."

In Piliwen's cave, Ares handed the white-haired baby before he grew up to the long-haired centaur with a gentle expression.

"He is the son of Apollo and Colones, and his name is Asclepius. I hope you can raise him well."

"give it to me."

Chiron gently took the baby that Ares handed over, and then hugged Asclepius in a more professional posture than Ares. He lowered his head and looked at Aris carefully. Sclepius' face, then laughed:

"What a clever boy, he will definitely become a great doctor in the future."

"Unexpectedly, you are also proficient in divination."

Ares was a little surprised.

"It's okay, after all, I love learning, so I also learned prophecy from Prometheus."

Chiron gently placed Asclepius on a soft cushion, and then cast magic, weaving a cradle on the spot:

"Just like I also learned a little magic from the goddess Hecate, learned medicine and music from Apollo, and learned archery from Artemis, and of course, the combat skills of various weapons that you taught me not long ago , and the hand-to-hand combat technique 'Pancrasin'."

Ares saw him skillfully preparing various items for Asclepius, and couldn't help asking:

"Do you need any remuneration? This kid Apollo just cares about life, but he can still give him some living expenses."

"No, no, after all, when I learned medicine and music from Apollo, he didn't accept any payment from me. This should be regarded as repaying him." Chiron smiled and shook his head: "Besides, I myself I really like educating people, you see, I went out and picked up a child myself."

After that, he took the cradle of Asclepius and led Ares into the back room of the cave. There, Ares saw another cradle with a blond baby in it, trying to Stuffed the soles of his feet into his mouth, but the moment he saw Ares coming in, the little baby cried out with a "wow".

Chiron hurriedly put Asclepius' cradle beside him, then walked over to appease the little yellow-haired boy, but when he heard the crying, Asclepius also woke up, and the son of Apollo was calmer. He actually sat up from the cradle by himself, and then grabbed the edge of the cradle with both hands, staring straight at the little yellow-haired baby who was crying in Chiron's arms with a pair of dead fish eyes.

Seeing this, Ares retreated from the cave, and Chiron comforted the baby for a long time before coming out with a wry smile on his face, apologizing to Ares:

"Sorry, Ares, he doesn't usually cry, but he cried so hard today for some reason."
