Hojo nodded happily.

'Treat him well, I hand him over to you...'

The last words from the goddess slowly disappeared in Atalanta's heart.

And Atalanta, who looked at Hojo, also had a different kind of peace and harmony in her heart.

She will do her best to do what she says.

Not only because of the Goddess Hestia, but also because the experiences of the boy in front of him are so similar to hers.

Simply being abandoned was enough for Atalanta to cherish the boy in front of him.

Chapter 130 Nine: The Unfathomable Person Like the Wind... (Fifth update, please subscribe!)

The next day.

Hojo continues to follow Atalanta to the forest for hunting.

This time Hojo was more handy.

If it weren't for the inconvenience caused by his height, Hojo would be able to hunt more prey.

And Atalanta will not be surprised by Hojo's rapid progress.

She already knew that Hojo was the son of a goddess. With such a background, it seemed understandable that she was too strong in terms of physical talent.

What she just didn't know was that even Hestia would be amazed by Hojo's physical gifts.

noon.

The two temporarily sat in the forest to rest.

Atalanta said while eating the food prepared by Pig:

"I'm going to the back mountain of Ximu Town tomorrow, do you want to come with me?"

Hojo swallowed a mouthful of grilled meat and replied:

"want!"

Atalanta nodded, then handed the water she drank to Hojo and said:

"Drink some water, don't choke."

"Thank you 23, teacher."

Hojo took a big sip from the water bottle, wiped the corners of his mouth and asked:

"Teacher, did you go to the mountains to hunt some special prey?"

"Why ask that?"

"Because if it's just for hunting, you won't come to Ximu Town every year. There must be a reason for doing so."

Atalanta smiled and continued:

"You're smart. That's right. I went to the mountains to hunt horses. Every year at this season, people and horses always come out of the mountains to plunder the residents around the mountains. By the way, didn't Pig tell you?"

"Huh? What did you say?"

"The crisis that almost wiped out Ximu Town decades ago was caused by the people who rushed out of the mountains at that time."

Hojo stopped eating immediately.

He really hadn't heard Piggy say such a thing.

But Hojo has heard of creatures like centaurs.

When he was on Mount Olympus before, Hestia had introduced him to some special creatures on the land of Greece.

Centaur is one of them. They have the upper body of a human and the lower body of a horse. They are extremely brutal and cruel by nature. They like to shoot and kill travelers with bows and arrows, and they also like to rape women.

It can be said that it is a rare creature that is hated by everyone on the land of Greece.

It's just that they have a horse-like physique, so ordinary people can't catch up with them and it's hard to be an enemy.

But there is also a very special existence among the centaurs.

That is Chiron.

Although Chiron is a centaur, he has an extremely gentle and friendly character, and at the same time is proficient in all martial arts in the world. This makes Chiron very respected by the residents of the Greek land, and even the gods appreciate him a lot.

Seeing Hojo's stupefied, Atalanta continued to explain to him:

"Decades ago, a wave of people came out of the mountains behind Ximu Town and caused great damage to Ximu Town. If the goddess Hestia hadn't shown her divine power at that time, there would be no Ximu Town now."

"Until now, people and horses will not be able to enter Ximu Town due to the divine power of Goddess Hestia."

"This history has always been remembered by the older generation of people in Ximu Town, and many young people have also forgotten it. Oh, Pig is the one who witnessed it back then."

Hojo nodded after hearing this, so that he understood why Pig respected his mother so much.

Because he was indeed saved by his mother.

"Teacher, where did you know this?"

"Pigger told me that when I hunted horses before, I always entered from other mountain depressions, but later the horses sealed up those mountain depressions in order to prevent me."

"Later, in order to find a new entrance to the mountain, I kept searching along the foot of the mountain, and finally found Ximu Town. At that time, what happened to Fei Ya's parents, after I made it clear that I came, Pig also treated me Tell the story of Ximu Town."

"The back mountain of Ximu Town happens to be protected by the Goddess Hestia, and people and horses can't make trouble there, and there is a passage leading directly to the mountain, so I will come here every year since then."

Atalanta said a lot in one breath.

Hojo thought for a while, and suddenly he thought of something and asked:

"Then how long has the teacher been hunting people like this?"

Atalanta fell into thought, and said for a moment:

"I haven't been very concerned about the passage of time, but it has been at least six or seven years."

sixty-seven years

Hojo looked at the appearance and figure of Atalanta in front of him. At this time, the other party looked like a girl who was only fifteen or sixteen years old.

If you reason back in time, Atalanta was only eleven or twelve years old at that time? ? ?

Hojo couldn't help but have some reverie in his mind.

Atalanta looked at Hojo with narrowed eyes and asked:

"What are you thinking?"

"Oh, what was it like before thinking about the teacher?"

"The same as now."

"Eh?"

Hojo looked at each other in surprise, and Atalanta calmly explained:

"I got a curse, and after the curse, my body's growth stopped."

Hojo was really surprised this time.

"curse?"

"It's all in the past, there's nothing to talk about."

"Ok."

Hojo was silent for a while, and he asked:

263 "Then how old are you now, teacher?"

"Who knows."

Atalanta said casually.

Her answer was very similar to the feeling she made, as unpredictable as the wind.

But this feeling is also one of her charms, no less than the wild beauty she gives people.

The noon break ended quickly, and the two started hunting again.

When I went back that day, I returned with a lot of prey.

While the villagers cheered, Atalanta brought Hojo to the blacksmith shop.

"Are the arrows ready?"

Atalanta asked coldly.

The blacksmith wiped the sweat off his brow, turned his body to one side, and the neatly stacked arrows were revealed.

Each one is cold and sharp, exuding a chilling sharpness.

Atalanta nodded, and then said:

"Remember to get your reward from Mr. Pigg, and I'll get the arrow tomorrow."

"Yes, Miss Atalanta."

After leaving the blacksmith, Atalanta said to Hojo:

"Get a good night's sleep tonight. The people you will face tomorrow won't be as easy to kill as the beasts in the forest."

"Ok!"

Chapter 140: Mount Pingdasi!Attacked! (Sixth update, please subscribe!)

On the second day, we went to Houshan Pass in Ximu Town.

A large group of people gathered here, all residents of Ximu Town.

They all came to see Hojo and Atalanta off.

At this time, the two are ready to go.

All the arrows made by the blacksmith had been put into the quiver by Atalanta.

It is an item blessed by Artemis, as long as it is an arrow, it can be used forever.

When Hojo saw it, he couldn't help being a little surprised.

"Master Hojo, Miss Atalanta, I wish you two a smooth journey and be careful in everything."

As the leader of the villagers, Pig came forward to congratulate the two.

Then the villagers also heard the sound of seeing off one after another.

Faced with these, Atalanta's expression was very flat, and he didn't even say a word.

Hojo waved goodbye to everyone well.

At this time, Fia also came forward, and she said to Hojo with red eyes, with great reluctance and worry:

"Master Hojo, you must be careful, remember to hide behind Miss Atalanta in case of danger."

Although Fia's concern moved Hojo very much, but the second half of the words made him dumbfounded.

He is not that weak!

"Don't worry, Teacher Atalanta and I will come back after hunting the centaurs!"

"Ok!"

Fia nodded vigorously.

Immediately, Hojo and Atalanta turned around and walked towards the mountain.
