He is now a believer of Artemis. If his boss sees his lover sad and hides away, then he, a believer of Artemis, will be like a stepmother. Without the protection of the main god, he will be bullied when he attends parties of the gods' believers in the future.
"Cynthia, Lady Artemis cannot be with her lover for the time being."
Suerlun said seriously: "If we continue to be together, Lord Apollo will definitely kill that man, and then the two of us will be separated forever."
"And if we separate temporarily, we can find a way to free ourselves from the bondage of our vows, so that we can have the opportunity to meet again in the future."
Suer Lun said seriously: "As long as you are alive, there is still a chance. No matter how strict the oaths and precepts are, there must be a way to break them."
Upon hearing this, Cynthia's mood suddenly became visibly happy. Her joy could be seen from the movement of her limbs. When Cynthia was happy, she liked to hang around Suerlun.
At this time, she had already turned two or three circles, and said happily while turning around: "Suerlun, my Suerlun, you are really a wise person..."
"Yes, you are right. As long as a person is alive, there is hope. Although a vow cannot be violated, it can be cancelled or covered...but if a person dies, there is nothing left."
"I understand!"
Cynthia was extremely happy. Not only was she happy that she could save Surlen's life, she was also secretly happy that Surlen was so wise, so calm, and even remembered to give her advice - he loved me!
He is planning for our future!
Of course, Cynthia chose to ignore the fact that Suren had no idea that he was the male protagonist.
Looking at the silly and cute little deer, Suer Lun immediately held his forehead and sighed helplessly: "Cynthia, what's the use of you understanding it? Why don't you go and tell Master Artemis?"
Cynthia stared at him with her innocent and joyful eyes, her thick eyelashes flickering, as if she was thinking about something...
"Hmm... Should I tell Surren that I am his main god? Where is Artemis?"
Cynthia's eyes flickered as she thought to herself, "Since I'm leaving soon, it should be okay to confess my mistake one last time, right?"
But Suerlun didn't notice this. He was wondering whether what he did was right.
What Suren did was actually similar to what Apollo did, both of them separated Artemis and her lover.
After all, this goddess is indeed a bit shameless. It's a bit too much to say that loving someone will lead to death...
But unlike Apollo, Apollo just did it to the extreme and left no hope for Artemis, so she would naturally be heartbroken. However, Suren's words would leave her with a glimmer of false hope.
As long as there is hope, never give up.
Regardless of whether she can do it or not, at least Artemis has something to hope for, right?
"Let's stabilize Artemis first. Artemis is indeed a good god. She has blessed me with good hunting harvests over the years."
Suer Lun thought to himself, "Since she is my main god now, I should at least help her share some of her worries..."
But there was only so much he could do. That was an oath recognized by the power of the Great Thunder, and no one could violate it, not even Zeus himself...
"Hiss~ Now that I think about it, our boss Artemis is indeed a bit of a nobody. Can I believe in a few more gods after I get out?"
Suer Lun thought so and naturally asked, "Cynthia, can a person believe in multiple gods at the same time?"
Cynthia nodded and replied, "Of course you can. Unless you swear to a certain god that you will serve him for life, a person can believe in multiple gods at the same time."
The Olympian pantheon is not a cancer like the three Semitic religions that insist on monotheism. In Greece, each city-state worships a different main god, but they will not expel the priests and temples of other gods.
For example, Athens worshipped Athena and Sparta worshipped Apollo, but Sparta also worshipped Athena, and Athens also had temples dedicated to Apollo, Zeus and other gods.
After Cynthia finished speaking, she was immediately distracted and asked with a vigilant look on her face: "Sullen, what do you want to do? Isn't it enough to have Lord Artemis as the main god?"
She didn't want the child she had worked so hard to raise for fifteen years to turn around and believe in other gods!
"Um... Cynthia, there's a saying that more friends mean more paths."
Suerlun began to deceive: "Think about it, Lady Artemis can only bless me with a good hunting harvest, but I can't hunt in the forest all my life. After I go out, I must find a very powerful main god to protect me, right?"
"You want to leave the forest?! Why? Am I not good enough to you?" Cynthia was even more panicked. Although she was determined to leave Suerlun, she didn't expect that she didn't even have time to prepare...
Apollo at least gave her a year to deal with it, so why was Suerlun so decisive?
"Could it be that Suerlun has discovered my identity?"
"probably not……"
Cynthia was suddenly extremely anxious, but she didn't know how to express it. She could only look at Surlun and wait for his next words.
"Whoo~"
Suer Lun exhaled slowly, nodded and said, "Yes, Cynthia, I wanted to wait until after tonight to tell you, but since the topic has come to this point, I might as well be honest!"
Anyway, no matter when he said he wanted to leave, Cynthia would find it hard to accept it, so she might as well take this opportunity to say it.
"I'm already fifteen years old, and I must return to human society."
Suren looked at Cynthia and said, "I can't stay in the forest forever and live with a talking deer, because I am a human being, and I naturally need to return to human society."
Humans are social creatures, unlike all other life on Earth.
Other creatures do not need social interaction, but humans will lose their personality and humanity without it.
In other words, Suerlun's will was really strong, and Cynthia could speak, so loneliness did not distort her character.
"But……"
Looking at this beauty that even the gods were moved by, Cynthia subconsciously wanted to keep her. She wanted to keep this God-given beauty to herself, and she didn't want anyone or any god to share this treasure that belonged to her alone.
But it was this unique sight of God that sank Cynthia's love brain and allowed her rationality to float up a little.
If she didn't part with her treasure, then this God-given beauty would fade away, and she would never see this young man again.
When Artemis thought of the consequence, she couldn't help but tremble with fear. She absolutely didn't want this ending!
This is the highest level of beauty, a beauty that makes intellectual life want to protect even at the cost of sacrificing one's own bottom line.
Artemis herself is a willful, lively and bold girl. If she falls in love with anyone, she will listen to Apollo's warnings, but she will definitely take chances and ignore her brother's warnings and continue to enjoy the beauty of love.
Until her lover was killed by the unbearable Apollo, she might be extremely sad and resent Apollo's cruelty, but she would never absolutely reflect on the fact that it was her own willfulness that killed her lover.
Because she is such an ignorant little girl, even after tens of thousands of years, she will still be so ignorant!
But now, no matter how ignorant Artemis was, she would never dare to joke with Suren's life and gamble on Apollo's mercy.
It is so difficult for a willful young girl to leave her lover...
Especially when this girl is a main god, the difficulty increases sharply.
But Suren did it with her beauty.
This birthday was quite dull. When Cynthia learned that Suren was leaving the forest tomorrow, she inevitably felt depressed.
Suer Lun sighed in his heart: "I didn't want to spoil the fun, but it seems that I can't avoid it in the end!"
Suer Lun took out his gift, handed it to Cynthia, and said, "Cynthia, this is my gift to you. Although birthdays are the day to receive gifts, I still want to give you my gift."
Suren took out a lifelike statue of a deer and an exquisite statue of Artemis.
Surren said calmly, "I noticed before that the statue of Lord Artemis was a bit crude. I thought it might undermine the majesty of Lord God, so I carved a new one."
"The other little deer statue is the one I carved for you after carefully observing your daily life. Cynthia, do you like it?"
Greece itself has a culture of statue making, and its statue making culture has almost invaded the entire world. You should know that in the beginning, whether it was Buddhism, Christianity, or other strange religions, there was no custom of statue making at all.
Even "idol worship" is an act that is opposed by Christianity and Buddhism.
Most of the Chinese beliefs in the East are totem worship and gods recorded in words. The gods worshipped are also invisible beings, and there is no custom of making statues of gods.
But later, Christian saints and statues of the Virgin Mary were made one after another, and all kinds of strange Buddhist statues were also everywhere...
All idol worship cultures today basically originate from ancient Greek culture.
Give Cynthia the statue, she will absolutely love it.
Suerlun was very confident about this, and Cynthia was indeed very happy. But just after Cynthia happily took it, for some reason, her expression suddenly changed, and she seemed a little gloomy...
This little deer who can't hide his feelings couldn't hide his feelings at all. Suer Lun was also very natural, just like thousands of times before, and asked: "What's wrong, Cynthia, don't you like this gift?"
To be honest, Suerlun felt very comfortable getting along with Cynthia. She was innocent and lively, and would say whatever she wanted. If she was unhappy, she would show it immediately and would never hide it, leaving you confused.
Therefore, when Suerlun was with her, he would speak up immediately if he had any doubts, and there would be no misunderstandings.
Cynthia shook her head and said sullenly, "You made a statue for... for Lady Artemis. Lady Artemis would definitely be very happy, but your statue is not unique. Why did you make statues for other people?"
I'm jealous of myself!
Cynthia was very unhappy. Who would give two gifts, for two people?
Even if the other person is myself, I will still be unhappy and angry!
"Cynthia, you are no other to me..."
Suren smiled and said, "And they are not for Lady Artemis. These two statues are my gifts to you, not treasures I offer to Lady Artemis."
Cynthia was stunned. It is not easy to make a statue of a god. What if the god thinks you are not worthy?
What if the gods think your craftsmanship is not good enough and the statue is not good?
Anyone who is qualified to make statues must be a master craftsman recognized by the gods.
Therefore, any statue of a deity would be considered a gift to the deity.
I didn't expect that Surlun would be so bold as to give the statue of God as a gift to another person. Doesn't he know that this is an offense and blasphemy to God?
However, Artemis was extremely happy about this "offense". Suren would rather offend a main god to give her this unique gift. Doesn't it mean that she is very important in Suren's heart?
He has me in his heart, he must love me!
Cynthia became cheerful again. For Surlen, it was so easy to make Cynthia happy. He could always make Cynthia enthusiastic and lively again with just a few words.
Although she was very happy, Cynthia still reminded Suerlun: "My Suerlun, remember, gods are very petty guys. You can only create a statue for one god at a time. When creating a statue, you must also give the god a sense of 'uniqueness'."
"If the gods think you are not respectful enough to them, they will curse and punish you. What a disgusting bunch of people you are!"
As she spoke, Cynthia suddenly became angry, and her four little hooves couldn't help digging the ground, suddenly forgetting that she was also a member of the gods.
She was not angry because of anything else, but because she was angry at the Suerlun in her mind who had offended the gods 'accidentally' and was punished by the gods...
How could there be a god who dares to punish my Suerlun!
Cynthia was very angry, but Suren stroked the smooth fur on her chin and soothed her with a smile: "Little deer, don't be angry, don't be angry... I remember, I will respect the gods and will not give them the opportunity to punish me."
"Also, Cynthia, you shouldn't be disrespectful to the gods like this. You are just a... uh, a follower of the Lord God. You can't offend the gods of Olympus!"
Suerlun wanted to say that you are just a hairy god from the Age of Titans, and you should keep a low profile and be a god in the Age of Olympus.
But when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he changed his words and could only remind her implicitly not to offend the Olympian gods.
However, Suren felt that this effect might not be very useful. Cynthia, this little doe, could be seen through at a glance. There was no depth at all, and she probably wouldn't be able to understand his metaphor.
If I want Cynthia to understand, I have to play it straight and use simple language that doesn't require thinking, so that she can understand what I mean.
"Suerlun cares about me again~ I'm so happy!"
Cynthia rubbed him with her head, which exuded a natural and fresh fragrance. For some reason, although she was a wild beast walking in the mountains and forests, Cynthia only had a refreshing fragrance of nature on her body, without any stench of a wild beast.
Perhaps, this is a manifestation of her recognition by the mistress of nature?
Suerlun did not avoid this intimate gesture...
However, Surlen was somewhat confused. Shouldn't animals express affection by licking people with their tongues?
Why are you rubbing your head against it?
After rubbing her head, Cynthia felt much happier. She said, "No, Suerlun, I'm still worried..."
"I will ask for the blessing of Lady Artemis, so that no one can punish my Surlun."
Cynthia turned around and suddenly realized that she didn't know what to do. She thought in a panic: "But, I haven't done this before. Should I disappear for a while? What if Suerlun is gone during this time?"
"What if I'm discovered here? Will Suerlun think I've been deceiving him all along?"
Cynthia was at a loss as to what to do. Then she heard Suerlun say, "Cynthia, if you want to communicate with Lord Artemis, you can use the gift I gave you to express your respect for the Lord God."
Suren couldn't help but complain: "To be honest, you have been using such a simple statue. It can only be vaguely seen as a statue of a goddess. I am very curious why Lady Artemis didn't come to punish you..."
If the statue was made by someone else, how could they dare to call such a crude thing a statue of Lady Artemis?
The result would inevitably be punishment from Artemis, but this was the statue she carved with her own hands. Could she really beat herself up?
"good idea!"
Cynthia ignored Surren's ridicule of her sculpting skills. She held a statue and muttered something, then did some strange things, and then said, "Okay, Lady Artemis agrees!"
Anyway, I am worshipping myself, so I can just fool around and be done with it. Anyway, Suerlun has never seen Artemis, so he doesn't know if this is how to worship Artemis.
After all, if it was Suren who requested to communicate with Artemis, then no matter how simple his sacrificial ritual was, it would definitely touch Artemis herself.
"Ah?" Suerlun was a little confused. He did not doubt this strange ritual. After all, as a human being, how could you know how to worship gods like gods?
