"Well."

Rhodes pursed his lips and said nothing.

In any case, Goddess Demeter's request cannot be refused.

She is the goddess that Rhodes yearns for the most, and Persephone was a goddess who had shown kindness to Rhodes in the past.

But, having said that... Hades.

Rhodes frowned, if possible, I really don't want to meet that guy.

In terms of strength alone, Hades is probably far inferior to Zeus, but in Rhodes' view, Pluto is much more difficult to deal with than God King.

"I kind of understand Zeus' unwillingness to care about this..."

Rhodes sighed leisurely and got up.

He turned to Atalanta and said to the girl, "I'm going to the underworld, and I may not be able to meet you recently."

The huntress pursed her thin mouth: "That's really helpful... No! Rhodes, are you really going to argue with Hades, the king of the underworld!?"

"Ah, yes. Demeter has been promised."

"That, that...that's Hades? The most terrifying god of death in all of Greece!"

Rhodes nodded: "I know, even so I will go."

"A lust-obsessed idiot!"

Reminiscent of what happened to her, Atalanta was even more angry with Rhodes' decision.

Why are all men like this?

At first, I thought that Rhodes was different from those idiots who did not hesitate to die, but I didn't expect that after meeting the goddess, he still decided to die so easily.

"Not so, Atalanta."

Rhodes suddenly turned around to face her, grabbed the girl's shoulder and said, "This is an opportunity, I don't want to run away anymore."

Atalanta frowned slightly: "Don't want to escape?"

"That's right. Ever since I settled here, I've been running away. Running away from my responsibilities, running away from facing my power. Because before... because I hurt important people before."

The pure white girl appeared in his head, and Rhodes hesitated to speak, and then said after a pause:

"Obviously I could do better, but I couldn't do it, and I couldn't fulfill the promise... In the end, I could only leave her alone in a cold, dark world without even oxygen.

I've been terrified, terrified, and running away ever since. "

Since fighting the white giant, Rhodes has been in a state of depression.

What is really hurt is not the body, but the spirit.

And the person who let Rhodes out of the haze was Persephone, and this time she had to repay her kindness.

Atalanta stared at Rhode silently, and then said, "Although I don't know what happened to you, I understand."

The huntress hung the bow obliquely on her body, and grabbed Rhodes' hand.

"Why are you still standing there, let's go?"

"what?"

"Ah what, I can't leave you alone, can I? I want to go to the underworld with you too."

Atalanta put her hips on her hips, posing like a sister in front of the boy.

As long as you think about it for a while, you should understand that Rhodes, who is familiar with the goddess Deertemi, should be countless times her age, but human beings are always visual animals.

She couldn't let Rhodes go, partly because of this damn beautiful young beauty.

"But……"

"No but! You always run into my room willfully every day, today it's my turn to be willful!

Come on, Rod!Let's complete the trials of the Harvest Goddess! "

Seeing Rhodes not leaving, Atalanta directly picked him up and put him on his shoulders.

Like a gust of wind, the huntress turned and flew out of her palace.

……

……

……

Less than an hour into Rhodes and Atalanta's great adventure, the most serious problem came up.

"Rod... how are you going to get to the underworld? I don't know where the entrance to the underworld is."

"I do not know either."

"Hey hey hey hey!?"

"But it's all right."

Rhodes took Atalanta to a wilderness that was obviously slightly barren than other places, and then pointed to the ground.

"Create an entrance without an entrance."

In the age of gods, the underworld and the human world are physically connected, and they are all part of the surface of the planet.

It wasn't until the concept of physical laws came to the earth that the world where the gods lived, the world where the undead lived... didn't completely disappear from the surface of the planet.

The underworld is not a different dimension, but exists underground.

In this regard, Greece and Mesopotamia are the same.

"—"

Atalanta opened her mouth wide in shock at Rhodes' words.

Although it is a well-known fact that the underworld is underground, no one has ever said that in order to enter the underworld, it is necessary to penetrate the ground.

Compared with whether it can be done, this idea itself is too messy!What is going on with this kid?

"Ata, give me the bow."

Rhodes gestured towards her.

The girl hesitated for a moment, but still handed the bow to him.

"Beforehand, without Lord Artemis' blessing, this bow cannot exert its full power. It is absolutely impossible to penetrate the ground."

Rhodes smiled lightly: "I know, it's just for aiming."

"?"

Under the girl's confused sight, Rhodes took out an arrow, put it on the bow and shot it into a piece of ground casually.

"The level is really low..."

Atalanta looked at the arrow that was only a few centimeters into the ground crookedly, and muttered softly.

"Hmm, why don't I teach you how to archery next time..."

"I can't help it. I'm not a bow player. Here, I'll return it to you."

rumbling--

Thunder suddenly rolled in the sky, and the clouds that originally covered the blue sky gradually dispersed with the air currents. As a hunter, Atalanta had a premonition that something big was about to happen.

"what?"

Rhodes suddenly hugged Atalanta's waist and ran away with her.

"Wait, wait! What are you doing?"

In the next instant, there was an explosion in the sky.

I saw a huge iron pile falling from the sky, shooting straight towards the position Rhode was aiming at!

In an instant, energy comparable to the firepower of the enemy's Noble Phantasm exploded on the ground.

"What--!?!?!?"

The strong magical hot wind blew their petite bodies away. Rhode hugged Atalanta and rolled her into the bushes beside him.

"What the hell is going on... Ah! Rhodes, hand! Your hand! Where is your hand!"

Taking advantage of the chaos is Rhodes' talent skill.

Having said that, although it is small and exquisite, its softness is not inferior to that of Aphrodite and Eros.

The smoke cleared and the dust settled.

"Okay, amazing..."

Atalanta couldn't believe her eyes. A huge cave with a diameter of more than 20 meters and an unfathomable depth was blasted out of the original surface.

Even her Noble Phantasm [Complaint Dedicated to the Two Great Gods] cannot do this. What was that just now?

The truth of such powerful firepower is the Apollo system set up over Greece, the oldest human rod of God, and the lunar version of Dyneslev [Gang Nail].

Apollo, who lost his body and even his personality in the Great War 1 years ago, is the last remaining legacy.

Rhodes didn't take it seriously: "As long as you enter from there, you can directly reach the residence of Hades.

Persephone, the daughter of the Goddess of Plenty, should be imprisoned there now.

If it was later, she would probably be forcibly named Queen of the Underworld by Hades.Let's go, Atta. "

"Ah."

Although Atalanta had also participated in the Calydonian hunt and the adventure of the Argo ship before, going to the underworld to snatch the goddess and those two adventures are not in the same dimension at all.

The girl was unavoidably a little nervous, and while swallowing, she glanced back at the boy.

There was no hesitation in his eyes, nor was there any fear of the kingdom of death.

Rhodes, who are you...?

The girl pursed her lips and jumped into the cave of the underworld first without saying anything.

"Okay, then I too..."

Looking at the huge pothole and the endless darkness and cold below, Rhodes said softly with a sad expression.
