I don't like the gods, I want to be a hero

"it is finally over."

Seleus also slumped on the ground exhausted, and the repeated battles exhausted his strength.It took him a long time to stand up.

"This is a strong enemy, and I should dedicate its head and the victory of this battle to Lord Hades."

Seleus walked towards the head of the Cyclops leader. Just as he was about to lift his head up, he saw the head of the Cyclops leader suddenly opened its eyes, and the purple-black eyes glowed strangely.

Seleus realized something was wrong, he quickly closed his eyes and kept away from the head, but it was too late, a strange energy hit Serleus' soul directly.

Serius was tricked, and who would have thought that a creature could survive with only its own head left?

"Human! So what if you defeat my body? With the blessing of the God of Destruction, I am immortal!"

The arrogant voice of the Cyclops leader echoed in Seleus's head.

"Although I don't want a mortal body, I recognize your strength. Your body is worthy of my soul!"

After hearing the words of the Cyclops leader, Serius, who was worried that it would destroy his own consciousness and pull him back, calmed down.Want to occupy Serleus' body?Did the Cyclops question the power of the Three Lords in the depths of Seleus' soul?

"NO!!! THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE!!! WHY! WHY A mortal...!!!"

Sure enough, the remaining consciousness of the Cyclops leader was burned by the red lotus fire in the depths of Seleus's soul before he even finished a sentence, and his head was also turned into lime that drifted with the wind.

"Ding!"

A purple-black diamond-shaped crystal fell from the head of the Cyclops leader, and Seleus, who inexplicably felt that it was an important thing, picked up the crystal.He looked up at the top of the mountain, and the mist lifted with the death of the Cyclops leader.

Seleus threw the lighted torch on the battering ram forged by the Cyclops, and set out on his way back.

Chapter 22 Seleus Gets New Powers

Seleus rowed back to Atlantis by himself, and after telling the Atlantean officer about the situation on the island, Seleus declined the officer's thanks and hurried to Hades' temple .

Serius felt that this crystallization related to the God of Destruction should be dedicated to Lord Hades as soon as possible. After all, there are so many Cyclops gathered on a small island, no matter how you think about it, there is a problem.

As elsewhere, there were only a handful of people in Hades' huge temple, but it also made it easier for Seleus to pray.He half-kneeled in front of the statue of Hades, with one hand stretched forward to rest on the ground, and the other hand across his leg.

But before Seleus started to pray, a sense of weightlessness hit him, and when he recovered, he heard the familiar sound of hammering iron.Seleus looked up, and he had come to Lord Hephaestus' temple.

Seleus stood up, scratching his head suspiciously.

"Why did Lord Hades bring me to the temple of Lord Hephaestus?"

Unable to figure it out, Seleus simply stopped thinking. Lord Hades must have a deep meaning for what he did. Seleus felt that he just had to follow the instructions.He pushed open the door and came to the forging room with ease.

Ignoring the oncoming heat wave, Serius walked straight to Hephaestus who seemed to be preparing for something.

"Praise be to you, fair fire... eh!?"

Before Serius finished speaking, she was dragged to the side of the furnace by the goddess.

"Bring it."

The Lady Goddess stretched out her hand to Serius, who was a little puzzled, and subconsciously put his hand on it.

"Where did you come from, puppy?"

The red-haired goddess shook Serius' hand away with a black face.

"I'm talking about that crystal, purple-black."

Only then did Seleus react, and quickly put the crystal in the hands of the goddess.

Hephaestus looked at the crystal in his hand carefully for a while, and said with some surprise:

"Cronus! I didn't expect him to still have divine power in the mortal world!"

"Cronus? Father of Zeus?"

Cronus means the father of Zeus, Serius is a little puzzled?That God is so brave to call this name.Hephaestus glanced at Seleus's expression and knew that the kid was thinking about it. He gave Seleus a blank look, and explained angrily:

"Cronus is the father of Zeus."

Hearing this, Seleus scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Cronus, the second generation of God King, the ruler of Vientiane, the leader of the Titans, he leads the golden age of Olympus..."

"But I heard from the Cyclops that this is the power of the God of Destruction."

Serius was a little puzzled, and he asked Hephaestus.Hephaestus looked at Seleus helplessly, he looked very much like the class teacher who noticed that the students didn't listen carefully and asked random questions.

"Because Cronus dominates everything, he is also known as the god of creation and destruction."

After speaking, Hephaestus threw the crystal in his hand into the furnace, but this time, the goddess did not take her forging hammer.Seeing that the goddess no longer paid attention to him, Serius walked around the forging room a little bored.

"Before Hades suddenly discovered that your breath had disappeared from the world, this made Hades very anxious. Hades hadn't found your soul in front of the Styx, I'm afraid Hades would go crazy."

Seeing Seleus wandering around between the forgings, Hephaestus focused Seleus' attention on himself with a slightly urgent speech speed, and took this opportunity to burn a golden colossus.

"Master Hades..."

Serius felt an inexplicable emotion welling up in his heart, and he understood that Lord Hades had sent him here as soon as he entered the temple, and the goddess saw him as if she was asking for crystals.Obviously, Lord Hephaestus knew about Seleus's situation a long time ago, that is to say, Hades is not the only one who has been looking for Seleus' whereabouts.

"Thank you for worrying about me, Lord Hephaestus."

The flame pattern on Hephaestus' face became redder, and the flame controlled by her hands suddenly shook violently a few times.

"Did you find out? No! Didn't you say that Hades is the only one looking for you?"

The goddess' tone was a little flustered, and Serius, who noticed this, affirmed his conjecture, but he knew that he had better not reveal what the goddess wanted to hide, so he stopped talking.

"Really, I always say some inexplicable things to the goddess."

Hephaestus finally regained his composure, and Seleus just smiled back.

"By the way, isn't the goddess curious about where I went this time?"

After a while, Seleus felt that it was necessary for him to report his experience to the goddess, after all, it involved the second-generation God King Cronus.

"No, it's nothing more than encountering a monster that inherited part of Cronus' bloodline. There are too many such things in Olympus, and there is no need for us to ask them personally."

Hephaestus was a little careless.

"You know what kind of virtues the male gods of Olympus have. Not to mention..."

Having said that, the goddess turned her head and glanced at Serius.

"Aren't you all right?"

Although Seleus still felt that something was wrong, since it was the judgment made by the goddess, and Lord Hades obviously had the same attitude, Seleus put his doubts aside.

'What are you thinking?Don't you think that the long-term accumulated experience and wisdom of the gods can't compare with your intuition as a mortal? '

Such a thought suddenly flashed in Seleus's mind, and he stopped talking with the gods about what happened to him on the island.At this time, Seleus became curious about the behavior of the goddess.

"Master Hephaestus, what are you going to do with this crystal?"

"To help some fool with his loot, of course."

Hephaestus gave some fool a blank look, and he didn't even think about what Hades sent him to her if it was useless.

Realizing that he asked a stupid question, Seleus smiled dryly and patted the back of his head.

"Is it a Cyclops who dropped this crystal?"

"Yes."

Hephaestus held the melted crystal in his palm.

"Which eye do you want to strengthen?"

Serius thought about his fighting style carefully. He usually held an ax in his right hand, so most of his attacks were launched from the right.If at this time, he has the means to block the enemy's actions from the left...

"I choose the left eye."

"Really? Then get ready."

Hephaestus melted the crystal into Seleus' left eye with his own fire.

Chapter 23 Fusion Success

When Hephaestus used her flame to fuse the crystal into Serius' left eye, Serius, who hadn't figured out what the goddess was going to do to prepare himself, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his pupil, and blood Slowly flowing from the eyes, Seleus covered his eyes in pain.

Seleus covered his eyes and felt that his hands were filled with fiery liquid. Although he closed his eyes, he knew that it was his own blood and sweat from the pain.Now, Serius understood what the goddess wanted him to prepare.

The pain became even more intense, and Serius felt something penetrated into his brain and blood, and wherever the thing passed by, there were bursts of severe pain from being burned by flames.

He tried his best to maintain his sanity, and tried his best not to let out a painful roar.Seleus bent his waist, trying to save some strength, but at this moment he suddenly felt himself embraced by a warm body.But Serius didn't care to think about who was hugging him, he felt his left eye melting.

......

Hephaestus gently helped her 'little one' to her seat, feeling that his arms could not wrap around Serius' waist, his shoulders could not rest on Serius' arms, The goddess put her head against Serius' upper body helplessly.

"When did the little guy grow up so big?"

Sitting on the arm of his throne, Hephaestus took Seleus's head in his arms.From her perspective, Seleus' left eye had completely turned into a hollow burning with flames.She knew that the divine power of Cronus was strengthening Seleus' body so that he could use it.

This is of course the masterpiece of the God of Forging. You must know that the power of the King of Titans cannot be used by everyone, if Hephaestus did not use her divine power to create it without damaging the divine power of Cronus. That side is brought out, and anyone who tries to steal the power of Kronos will be annihilated by the wrath of the Titan King.

Hephaestus looked at Serius, whose face was distorted by the pain, and stroked his hair distressedly.

"The little guy is already an upright man."

The goddess was a little surprised that Seleus could still retain his sanity and not faint.Of course she understood how much pain the fusion of divine power would bring to mortals, especially since the source of the divine power was Cronus, the god of creation and destruction.

But she thought this would only teach Seleus a lesson. During the process of fusing Cronus' divine power, Seleus would soon be unable to bear the pain and faint. The little mood of worry, and the opportunity to monitor whether the fusion of divine power goes wrong can enjoy the time with someone with peace of mind.

You must know that the goddess almost smashed the chopping board when she couldn't feel the breath of Seleus, the snake of Hades, her golden colossus and the fire of Hestia almost turned the sea of ​​Atlantis When he came over, Poseidon was so scared that he ran directly to Mount Olympus for refuge.

Hephaestus smoothed Seleus' frown with distress, the little emotions in his heart had long been dissipated because of Seleus' pain.She regretted why she didn't smelt it for a while, so as not to offend the little guy so much...

The fusion was about to end, and the goddess clearly saw that the eye of God, which contained the power of creation and destruction, was born in the flame of Seleus' left eye.Seleus's also passed out from exhaustion.

Hephaestus put his chin on Serius' head and smiled softly.

"Fortunately! My little one is safe and sound."

......

Serius woke up from a coma, and just as he opened his eyes, he saw Hephaestus standing in front of him with his arms folded, staring at him with a very serious expression.But what made Serius feel strange was that his vision seemed to be very strange.

"The fusion failed. The power of the Titan King is indeed beyond the grasp of mortals."

After hearing the words of the goddess, Serius realized that he lacked the left vision. He subconsciously covered his left eye, but found that he was wearing a blindfold, and he could no longer feel the left vision. Eyes exist.

Serius felt it was very strange, he felt that he should at least be disappointed and depressed after losing his left eye.But Serius was very calm now, as calm as if he hadn't lost his left eye.

Seleus is now filled with a feeling that he can't explain himself, as if the world will be changed by his will, whether it is created or destroyed, he can make it with his own hands.

"Has fusion really failed?"

Seleus questioned the goddess, but seeing that he couldn't deceive Seleus, Hephaestus put away the seriousness on his face and put on a smile again.

"I wanted to see how you panicked? The fusion was very successful, as if you were Zeus' brother."

Lady Goddess's joke is still so... um~ Maverick?Serius didn't know how to respond at all, so he simply changed the subject.

"Then what's with the blindfold?"

The goddess raised her eyebrows, she realized that Serius was changing the subject, but thinking of the question he asked, the goddess decided to let him go this time.

"It's the same style as what I see."

The goddess answered with a girlish playfulness.Unfortunately, it wasn't blinders that Seleus was concerned with.

"I mean, I can't feel my left eye..."

The sharp gaze of the goddess made Seleus' tone lower and lower.Hephaestus took a deep breath and decided to let him go one more time.

"It's far from easy to master Cronus' divine power. Now you can't control the power of the left eye at all."

"Can't grasp what you mean?"

Celius was a little puzzled.

"Your left eye will attack uncontrollably until it drains your own magic."

The goddess briefly described the condition of Seleus' left eye. In order to let Seleus feel it in detail, she slightly opened the blindfold, and handed a piece of waste to Seleus.

"Try holding this thing close to your left eye."

Seleus brought the waste in his hand close to his eyes, and then, Seleus felt a purple-black light flash before his eyes, and the waste disappeared without a sound.

Such a domineering attack frightened Serius, and he quickly put on his blindfold to prevent any mistakes.Hephaestus laughed out loud when he saw Serius' frightened appearance, and then, the goddess seemed to have thought of something, and quickly turned his back to Serius.
