But King Athos was even more puzzled than them. He had already planned in his heart how to expand the territory after Seleus became his son-in-law, but who would have thought that Seleus would lose on purpose.He is now in the downtime of falling from heaven to hell without warning, and he is just stupid.

Not caring about the situation in the auditorium, Seleus asked Atalanta who was also unresponsive: "By the way, what punishment will the loser have?"

Chapter 57 Seleus the Hero of...

"What did I say before?" Athena looked at Artemis beside her with a smug smile. "Selius never disappoints, does he? Hey! Shouldn't you be glad it's settled? What's with that look?"

"Although the matter can be said to have been perfectly resolved." Artemis drooped his head very listlessly, with a complicated expression mixed with confusion and hopelessness on his face. "But it's completely different from what I imagined."

"Then in your imagination, what method should the child of Seleus use to solve this problem?" Athena was suddenly a little curious about what wonderful ideas her good sister had in her mind.

"I thought that Serius would directly release the power of the axe, turn into a huge flame giant, kill all the contestants head-on, cut off the disgusting king's head, and snatch Atta away in full view. Lante, finally do something embarrassing in the palace..." As he spoke, Artemis couldn't help covering his flushed face with his hands.

"Stop stop!!!" Athena had to interrupt her sister's bad speech. "What is on your mind, Goddess of the Moon, every day!"

"I'm just a little curious." The blushing Artemis smiled embarrassedly, lowered his head and played with his fingers. "Besides, don't you wonder what Seleus and Atana will do in the room at night?"

"It's a bit..." Facing the head of her good sister Artemis who suddenly came over with a teasing smile, Athena couldn't help but think of the time when she saw Serius's upper body exposed at close range in Colchis. At the scene, his face turned red for a moment.

But Athena is the goddess of wisdom after all, how could she be suppressed for too long by the goddess of the moon who doesn't know what she thinks every day, when the topic is obviously dominated by Artemis, she decisively chooses to change the subject: "Speaking of which, let's Don't look at the expression on the old woman whose fun was interrupted by Serius? I believe it must be very interesting, isn't it?"

"Yes!" Artemis, who was still blushing, suddenly showed a very dangerous smile when he heard the word 'old woman'. "It's also a good time to calculate the account of Atalanta with her..."

......

"Den!"

Seleus, who fled from Arcadia, suddenly realized that he hadn't lit a fire to cook all day, so he decided to stop for a meal before continuing to escape.And there happened to be a river next to his current position. Serius, who was fed up with olive oil and barbecue, decided to catch some fish to fill his stomach.

"Den!"

Picking up a strong enough long branch, using the tendons of the monsters on his body to make a thread, and grinding the teeth of the monsters into the shape of a fishhook, Seleus quickly made a fishing rod. "Sure enough, life requires a sense of ritual!" Seleus sat quietly on the bank of the river, trying his best not to let the external force affect his hand holding the fishing rod, so as to avoid the fish in the river being scared away by the fishing rod moving wildly.

"Den!"

"Why can't I catch any fish?" Seleus looked at the fishhook that hadn't moved for a long time, and his heart was full of doubts. He clearly saw that there were many big fish in the river, and the bait he used was the meat of monsters. What, none of these fish are willing to eat?

"Den!"

"The sense of ritual in life is still not as real as filling your stomach." Seleus, who waited for the fish but couldn't get the bait, decided to give up the sense of ritual in life. He threw away the fishing rod in his hand and jumped directly into the river to start fishing. Fish, several big fish were caught in no time.

"Den!"

"Unfortunately, my pot was pierced by an arrow and can't be used anymore. Otherwise, I could still have a meal of fish soup today." Seleus lifted up the pot with a hole, but suddenly there was a "boom!" An arrow flying from a distance pierced the cauldron in Seleus's hand and bounced off his body.The arrows shot in front of his eyes made it impossible for Seleus to ignore the arrows that had been shot at him since he left the match scene.

Serius stood up, threw away the pot in his hand, and then shouted in the direction of the arrow: "I have too much fish here, do you want to have a grilled fish feast together?" An arrow flew over, and bounced off Serius' skin.But judging from the strength, the owner of these arrows agreed.

......

Seleus deftly removed the guts and gills of the fish with a knife and scraped off the scales.Atalanta on the side cut the fish meat that Serius had prepared into pieces and hung them on the grill propped up by tree branches. There was a clear division of labor between a man and a woman, highlighting a tacit understanding.But after all the fish was hanging on the grill, there was an eerie silence between the two.

"Your curse is lifted?" Unable to bear the awkward atmosphere, Serius tried to bring up the topic, but after asking the question, Serius wanted to slap himself, isn't it obvious?How could he ask such a stupid question?For a moment, Seleus felt that the atmosphere was even more awkward.

"Hmm." Atalanta on the side didn't notice the changing expression of Serius, she just nodded lightly, with confusion and puzzlement on her small face. "why?"

"Huh?" Serius was puzzled by Atalanta's nonsensical words. "what why?"

"Why did you deliberately lose to me?" Atalanta finally asked what was in her heart and looked up at the sky. The sun had not completely set, but the moon had quietly risen. "As a great hero like you, no matter what the reason is, losing to a woman like me should shame your glory..."

Atalanta did not ask why Seleus helped her, because she had a deep understanding of what kind of hero Seleus was during her relationship with the Argonaut. Help is not his style.However, Atalanta didn't understand why Seleus helped her regardless of the consequences. She felt that for Seleus who wanted to be a hero, the glory of a hero should be the most precious thing.

"How should I explain it?" Seleus scratched his head. "I don't think the hero I want to be is the same as what you understand?"

"It's not the same thing?" Atalanta tilted her head, staring at Serius who was wondering how to explain.

"To be honest, I don't care if anyone sings about my deeds, and I don't care about the so-called hero's glory. These things are useless to me." Serius, who really couldn't think of words, decided to tell Ah Tarrant spoke his mind. "The hero I want to be should be an existence that can bring happiness to most people. It is the kind of existence that people will feel at ease as long as they appear."

"Happiness and peace of mind?" Atalanta heard such a strange idea for the first time, but she agreed with it unexpectedly. "You are already, you have brought happiness to so many people, and people feel at ease when you show up."

Just like me in despair, except Atalanta didn't say this sentence.

"I'm far from qualified. I only have brute strength and knowledge that I don't know when I will use it. I can only solve things that bring misfortune to people. There is no way to actually eliminate the misfortune of the world." Seleus waved his hand , thinking that he has a clear understanding of himself, he disagrees with Atalanta's compliment.

Atalanta wanted to say something more, but seeing that Serius didn't want to discuss more on this topic, she gave up. "Then why did you deliberately lose to me? In fact, as long as you win me, and then pretend to be married... I thought that was what you planned, and you let me go all out for the game so that I don't have any regrets of."

"Doing that is not without regrets." Seleus knocked Atalanta on the head. "Atalanta, since we met, you have given me the impression of a proud and pious huntress. And it is that pride and piety that made you the target of Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty. Once I If I outrun you, then the proud and pious huntress I know will become an ordinary princess due to the curse of the gods, thus losing her pride and faith."

"I want to help you, Atalanta." Seleus looked down into Atalanta's eyes. "At least before fate comes, I hope you have the power to decide what kind of fate you want to embrace."

Atalanta opened her mouth, but nothing came out.The tall man in front of her was fundamentally different from all the men she had ever seen.Although her heart became a mess because of Serius' words, she was very clear about one thing - Serius, her hero...

Chapter 58 Seleus' Danger! '

"Hahahahaha!!!"

In the royal palace of Desarai, Jason, holding a gold cup, laughed loudly at his friend sitting next to him.The tall man at the side had a dark face, silently sipping the delicious wine that his friend had prepared for him.

Obviously, even the most delicious wine can't bring you a good mood if your friends are gloating at your misfortune at a party.Serius is currently in such a state of being unhappy but having no choice but to make fun of Jason.

"So, our great hero Seleus, who was smiling even when facing the poisonous dragon of Ares, fled to me in embarrassment under the pressure of a woman?" Perhaps he had laughed enough, Jason directly He drank the wine in the glass in one breath, then ignored the increasingly dangerous eyes of Serius, and joked to Serius with a teasing smile on his face.

Serius compared his fist with the hardness of Jason's head in his heart, but after thinking that he would have to hide with him for a while, he reluctantly put down his fist and gave up giving Jason a set. Sunglasses' idea.

"Have you laughed enough? Can you just keep your mouth shut and drink for a while?" Seleus couldn't bear Jason's mean smile, so he asked Jason to calm down for a while. meeting.

"Then tell me about the details." Jason picked up the flagon, which was also made of gold, and filled the wine for the two of them, then put his head in front of Serius. "I just heard in Desalay that the great hero who defeated the poisonous dragon and the devil pig took part in Princess Arcadia's husband-seeking competition. You ran to me in embarrassment and said that you lost the competition, and now you are hiding everywhere. Looking at Atalanta. Now I am a little curious about what happened in the middle? You must know your strength is obvious to all, and Atalanta can’t beat you in a physical competition.”

"I can tell you. After all, this is not something shameful. But after hearing it, you must keep your mouth shut and not laugh!" Serius felt that instead of letting Jason go outside to inquire about the To spread the 'truth' of the incident everywhere, it's better for the person involved to explain the cause of the incident clearly, and at the same time stop Jason's cheap mouth. (vi. (vii..3) (vii. 0) (ii)

"Okay, okay, I promise I won't laugh no matter how funny it is after listening to it." Seeing that You Lezi listened to it, Jason hurriedly made a promise to Serius, and at the same time put up his hand in a pretentious manner stand up.

Seleus stared at Jason suspiciously. His subconscious mind kept telling him that this guy was unreliable, but the words had already been spoken, and Jason had already shut up. Tell the story: "Just after I returned the Golden Fleece, the moon goddess Artemis sent me back, and he asked me to kill all..."

......

"...In this way, I deliberately lost to Atalanta, and the curse cast on her by Aphrodite disappeared. I left Arcadia after seeing that the matter was accomplished, but I didn't want Atalanta Lanta followed me all the time, and shot an arrow through my pot while I was cooking..."

"Hehe~~" Hearing this, Jason couldn't help laughing anymore, but he quickly recovered his calm expression under Serius' angry gaze. "You continue." Jason looked into Serius' eyes, showing some sincerity in his eyes. "It was an accident, and I promise not to laugh again."

Serius suppressed his anger, and continued: "I thought it wouldn't be a problem to let her keep shooting at me, so I invited her to have a good talk..."

......

"Do you have any plans for the future?" Seleus handed the grilled fish to Atalanta.

"What?" Atalanta, who had been thinking about something just now, took the fish piece, and at the same time stared at Serius with her beautiful but confused eyes.

"I mean, where are you going after that?" Seleus turned over the fish on the grill. "After all, so many things have happened, you have no way to go back to Arcadia, although I feel that even if you can go back, you will never go back."

"The curse on you has been lifted. Is there any place or thing you want to do after that? For example, go back to the forest where you were originally, and continue to live the life of a female hunter. Or go to Artemis I personally recommend the second option to be a priestess in the temple of your lord, after all, it will be safer if you can directly receive the protection of Lord Artemis in the temple..." Seleus turned aside The silent huntress suggested that he felt that the girl in front of him should be a little uneasy after this incident happened.But Serius never imagined that while he was chattering like an old woman worried about his daughter, the girl beside him didn't listen to him at all.

’ That’s really bad advice from a nice guy. Atalanta stared at the tall man on the side. Although she knew his character before, she used to watch him help others. , Atalanta had an indescribable but wonderful feeling in her heart.

'Don't you think of yourself at all? ' Atalanta couldn't help but move a little closer to Seleus. 'Obviously I have the beauty that so many people want to pursue even in the face of death, and you obviously have the ability to marry me reasonably, and in that case I will never blame you. '

'But you chose the method that was least beneficial to you, helped a girl who was in a desperate situation, even preserved her pride, and even gave her the luxury of being able to choose her destiny. ’ Atalanta’s gaze on Seleus became softer. 'You idiot still asked me about my future plans in a serious manner, and you gave me so many suggestions from my standpoint.But have you thought about it clearly, after meeting you who saw my pride and willing to respect it, after meeting you who are willing to help me like this without asking for anything in return, what else can I plan? '

'I want to be by your side, to travel around the world together, to fulfill your dreams together.Although the relationship may stop at holding hands and hugging, but if it is you, you must understand me, right? ' Atalanta thought so, but suddenly she hugged her legs with her hands in frustration, and buried her face between her legs. 'But I can't stay by your side, you are so powerful, you are a great hero that the gods pay attention to, and what you are about to face is a trial that the gods are stronger than once. '

'Although I don't lack the courage to face difficulties with you, I know that once I am by your side, I will only become the biggest weakness of you, an invincible hero.Sooner or later, because of my weakness, you will be hurt in ways that you wouldn't be hurt when you were alone, and that's what I don't want to see...'

"What's wrong with you? Are you confused about the future?" Seleus stopped suggesting because of Atalanta's frustrated behavior.He wanted to do something to make the huntress feel better, and at this moment, he suddenly thought of the pigskin that he used as a blanket because it was too small.

"Look at what this is? The devil's pigskin given by Lord Artemis." Holding the devil's pigskin baptized by the power of the Moon Goddess, Serius, who had never coaxed a girl before, subconsciously used it. Coax the child's tone. "You know, this thing is of no use to me, so accept it as a testimony of our friendship."

'This idiot doesn't understand a girl's mind at all. Atalanta looked at the clumsy big man trying to make himself happy with a childish tone. 'I'll accept it, but not as a testimony of friendship like this idiot said.It's a girl's longing for her sweetheart. '

Thinking of this, Atalanta put the devil pig skin on her body...

Chapter 59 The role of the pigskin

If he could go back to the past, Seleus would probably kill himself who gave Atalanta the devil's pig skin.

In the eyes of ordinary people, what is the Moon Goddess associated with?Nature, the patron saint of animals and plants; hunting, the god of bow and arrow worshiped by hunters; purification, the goddess of eternal purity; plague, the cruel goddess representing disease and death...

When he handed the pigskin to Atalanta, Seleus, like everyone else, always believed that it was the full power of the moon goddess Artemis.Anyway, this magic pig skin is also a reward from the Moon Goddess, so how could there be any side effects?And even if there is a side effect, Artemis, who should still be concerned about his followers, will probably remove it after Serius gives the devil pig skin to Atalanta.

But the young Seleus could never have imagined what kind of purpose the pure Moon Goddess had for making the pigskin given to Seleus into such a size; What kind of bad idea did he give to the pure Moon Goddess; and the most terrifying thing is that Serius has no idea what the consequences of being favored by the Moon Goddess...

After Atalanta put on the devil pigskin, the light representing the moon emerged from the devil pigskin instantly, and the devil pigskin, which was originally a dead thing, spread rapidly on Atalante's body under the action of divine power, green , the costumes representing nature and hunting disappeared in the moonlight.

But the Moon Goddess, who doesn't understand people's hearts, didn't give Seleus an opportunity to stare wide-eyed. The bright moonlight perfectly covered the whole body of the beautiful huntress the moment Atalanta's costume disappeared. The persistence of the unusually bold Artemis in this regard is really puzzling.

When the moonlight disappeared completely, what appeared in front of Serius was an Atalanta wrapped in black and purple sexy decorations, a demon pig's head appeared on her right shoulder, and the emerald hair was replaced by snow white...

"Isn't this a bit too exciting for me?" Serius, who was full of blood, had a hard time controlling the flow of 'loyalty' from his nose. "But speaking of it, why do I feel that this outfit is a bit familiar?"

Serius touched his head. After he took over the pig skin from Atalanta, he had a strong sense of déjà vu, as if he had seen this kind of decorated Atalanta before. "But it always felt like something was missing."

Serius scratched his head and wondered where he had seen this scene, but ignored the madness in Atalanta's right eye at this time.

"Selius!" Atalanta let out a low growl, and like a wild beast, he used all fours to pounce on Serius, who was a little stunned by this sudden development.

"boom!"

With a loud noise, Seleus, who couldn't figure it out that he was only wearing a devil's pigskin, and things turned out like this, was directly thrown to the ground by Atalanta.However, although Atalanta crushed Serius under her body in the posture of a predatory beast, she did not restrict Serius' hands, as if she was not worried that Serius would resist at all. In this case, it was instantly judged that Ah Seleus, who had no tendency to attack Tarrant, stared blankly at Atalanta who was riding him.

Because of the difference in size, Atalanta's limbs were all resting on Serius' chest, and she just lay on Serius' body, stroking Serius' bewildered face with both hands.

"Um, can you get off of me? If you're like this, I'm a little troubled... Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhssds.com!!!" Serius was about to say something, but he didn't know whether it was the act of speaking or what Sirius said that stimulated him. Atalanta, the cold and cold huntress in the past, actually blocked Serius' words with her mouth.

Serius, whose combined actual age in two lifetimes was equal to the single age, was startled by the sudden stimulation, his eyes widened. He wanted to push away, but because most of Atalanta's skin was exposed, he didn't know where it came from. When he started, he could only enjoy the harsh but wild kiss of the huntress dully.

After a long time, Atalanta let go of Seleus, still stroking Seleus' face with her hands.But this time, Seleus didn't dare to make a sound anymore.But after stroking for a while, Atalanta seemed dissatisfied with Seleus's motionless behavior again, as if punishing him, she gnawed hard on Seleus' neck.

Serius could feel Atalanta's teeth grinding together, slowly moving from his neck to his shoulders, and then slowly to his face...

"It's not good to go on like this." Seleus felt that his mood was a little complicated...

......

"Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!" Jason, who had promised not to laugh before, ignored Serius' eyes that wanted to kill, and laughed wantonly.

"So, you were forced to escape to me in such a mess by a woman like this?" Jason clutched his stomach after laughing so hard that he managed to recover.

"That's not true. Atalanta's state is so weird, how can I leave her there alone!" Serius clenched his fists, but he was concerned that this punch might kill the weak chicken in front of him. He still couldn't beat it.

"How did that end?" Jason became curious again.

Having reached this point, Seleus didn't care to continue talking. "At the critical moment, the Moon Goddess took Atalanta away, but because of the embarrassing experience before, I was a little worried that Atalanta would really come to chase me after recovering, so I fled to you... .”

......

"What the hell did you put on that devil pig's skin!" On Mount Olympus, the red-faced Athena wrapped her arms around Artemis' neck and shook it vigorously. The moon goddess' snow-white long hair Because of the rough actions of the good sisters who kept floating.

"Obviously you asked me to do that." Artemis, who was also ruddy, stared at her big innocent eyes, and retorted with a little confidence.

"Did I ask you to place such a large amount?" Athena blushed even more, and she didn't know whether she was ashamed or angry by this unreliable sister. "Then how to solve the matter now? You just watch your sweetheart and your favorite child do...doing this?"

"Isn't this great? My favorite child is blessed, and she can help me watch the bad woman who dares to approach Seleus, and comfort me..." As she spoke, the Moon Goddess's face became even brighter. Turned red, she lowered her head shyly and played with her fingers.

"Now! Immediately! Immediately! Go and settle the matter for me!" Athena felt that she was going to be mad, she ravaged Artemis' little face, and yelled without any image of a goddess.

"Why is this so!" Artemis cried out unwillingly from Mount Olympus.

Chapter 60 Years of Enmity

"Hecuba! Hecuba! My beautiful wife, Hecuba! You must be safe!" Troy Crown Prince Priam walked back and forth outside the bedroom anxiously.Priam's favorite wife, Hecuba, is giving birth, but as a man, he can only stay anxiously outside the palace.

"The great moon goddess, Artemis, the most beloved daughter of God King Zeus. Please keep my wife safe." Priam prayed to the moon goddess. He loved his wife very much.

"Your Highness! Your Highness! Something is wrong!" While Priam was waiting anxiously, his servant ran up to him with a dead face.Priam noticed that the servant was trembling and his eyes were bulging with fear, and he knew instantly that something bad had happened.

"What happened?" Priam asked.

The servant knelt down and grabbed his ankle: "Your Highness, I didn't start leaving until just now! I saw something terrible! I ran all the way! I didn't tell anyone about this! I came directly to you !"

"Take it easy, poor fellow. Take it easy." Priam comforted his servant, who was incoherent with fear and panic, while the bad feeling in his heart was getting worse.

"Your Highness! Your Majesty the King! Your father is dead! Your brothers are dead too! They were killed! Killed by Hercules!"

"They are dead?! Why did Hercules kill them!" Priam grabbed the servant by the collar and pulled his head towards his eyes.

"Hercules killed the god lion sent by Poseidon to punish us, and then he demanded his due reward. But His Majesty the King suddenly refused to pay Hercules, and insulted him contemptuously 'I don't want to Let the lowly Greek mercenaries get a little fortune out of me.'. So angry Hercules killed all the Trojans present. Lucky me, Your Highness. Hercules' companions stoned me unconscious It's..."

"Come on! You are a slave! Not a warrior! I won't ask you to fight with such a powerful warrior, just tell the truth when you hide." The clever Priam recognized the servant's lie in an instant .After understanding what happened, he let go of the poor servant.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness." The servant finally breathed a sigh of relief and knelt on the ground.

"Father! Just two horses! Hercules only asks for two horses as a reward. Just two horses that increase every year! He is a demigod who can easily kill the beast that destroyed all the troops of Troy! "The sad Priam shouted angrily outside the bedroom.
