Mortals are always good at performing miracles, aren't they?

After having a wonderful lunch with Hestia, Suren stretched himself, looked at Hestia, and said seriously: "Thank you, Goddess Hestia. For me, this is a more perfect experience than any blessing."

“Thank you for your tolerance towards believers.”

"It's not tolerance for believers." Hestia looked at Surren and chuckled. "So far, you are the only one who has had lunch with me."

Hestia is not Athena, Hera, or Artemis. She doesn't talk much and has little contact with people, so she doesn't know how to beat around the bush. She always speaks directly and says whatever she thinks.

Even though I might feel shy, the words have already been said and there's nothing I can do about it, right?

When making a decision, don't let yourself regret it.

"That's why I said, thank you goddess for your tolerance towards me." Suerlun smiled and said, "So, this is my real gain, a wonderful memory that far exceeds the blessing of the goddess."

Suerlun's words are as if to say that for me, having lunch with you is a more precious experience than being blessed by God!

Hestia hits a straight ball, and Surren also hits a straight ball.

Facing different goddesses, Suerlun naturally has different faces.

Hestia couldn't help but pursed her lips. She was really not good at dealing with such a capable man.

"..."

With a burst of flames, Hestia disappeared, just as Suren didn't know when she appeared, and now didn't know when she left.

Surren added some wood to the holy fire and said seriously, "Hestia, I will miss you."

The flames emitted soft waves, as if in response.

Surren left the temple of Hestia. He touched his stomach and said to himself, "Is this an illusion? I feel like after eating Hestia's food, I won't feel hungry anymore..."

Is this a blessing from the goddess?

Suren was not sure either. It was more like a small benefit, just like Achilles, who was held upside down by his mother and bathed in the water of the Styx when he was born, thus gaining invulnerability to swords and guns.

Suren ate a meal from Hestia, and from then on he no longer had to run for food or suffer from hunger.

It is truly an age of gods filled with miracles, wonders, and incredible things!

No matter how hard scientists and magicians of later generations rack their brains, they would never dare to imagine how to meet the human body's energy needs without eating or drinking.

This is neither science nor magic!

"Lady Hestia, I seem to know what I need."

A smile appeared on Suerlun's face. He looked up at the rich Age of Gods and said, "I want to be an ordinary person. This way, I will not let down this great and glorious Age of Gods Greece."

In Britain, he initially just wanted to help Artoria build a country so that everyone could live and work in peace.

In the Greece of the Age of Gods, this goal that he had been striving for all his life has been achieved under the guidance of the gods.

Now, Suren can live for himself and he can freely enjoy the beauty and richness of this age of gods.

-

In the Age of Gods Greece, maybe there is nothing wrong with being an ordinary, entertaining person.

As an ordinary person, the first step is to start a family, get married and have children.

And Suren also swore like Hera to be a pure love warrior and a good husband, so no matter what, a perfect love is essential.

Love, in theory, is within the scope of Aphrodite's divine power, but Suerlun doesn't really want to...

No, you must not go to Aphrodite, because the blessings of Aphrodite and Queen Hera will conflict.

There would be no good consequences if you offend Hera in Greece. Suren thought about it and gradually came up with an idea.

So, Suren came to the temple of Athena again and saw the priest girl named Pallas again.

Pallas smiled and said, "What's wrong, Surren... Didn't you get Hestia's blessing?"

Hestia hasn't appeared for hundreds of years. It's difficult for Zeus to see her, let alone a mortal.

During the annual Hearth Festival, Hestia had to avoid the gods and quietly find a city-state to participate, which highlighted her social phobia.

And how could this socially anxious goddess make an exception for a Surlun?

Athena naturally thought that Hestia would not meet Suren, and she had even thought about how to help Suren get Hestia's blessing.

Then guide Suerlun to take risks step by step.

Surren touched his belly and said, "Well, it seems that I didn't get Hestia's blessing on the surface."

It was just a meal with the goddess, not worth mentioning...

But it can't be considered a lie, Hestia did not say anything to bless him.

"I have a way to get Hestia's blessing for you~" Pallas said lively and playfully: "Do you want to know? Surren?"

"If you want to know, just say 'Goddess Athena's wisdom is unparalleled' three times!"

"Oh, that..." Suer Lun scratched his head and said awkwardly: "I have received a gift more precious than a blessing. Let's just forget about this matter."

"..." Pallas' amber eyes turned cold, and his lively expression turned indifferent. He said, "Oh, really? Forget it then."

Suren was not a straight man. Pallas's behavior was so obvious that Suren would certainly not turn a blind eye. He took a deep breath and showed a smile that Cynthia had ordered him not to show to other women.

Under the shining sunlight, the smile of the beautiful young boy looks like that of the god of beauty. However, even for Aphrodite, who embodies all human imaginations of beauty, the boy she blessed would never have such beauty and such a clear and clean smile.

"Sister Pallas, please don't be angry, okay? I originally wanted to ask you for advice, but some small incidents happened..."

Suerlun narrowed his eyes and shamelessly used the face of seeing God. Beauty is also an asset. Although Suerlun doesn't use it often, she also knows how attractive her appearance is to the opposite sex.

Surlun was not stupid. Pallas had told him so, and he must have thought of many ideas for him. If he just "turned the page", wouldn't it mean that all the other party's kindness was wasted?

It's normal for her to feel angry and unhappy about this.

Pallas was stunned. The beautiful boy's eyes were wet and showed his sincerity, so she believed it.

Pallas's cold expression subsided, and he snorted, "Hmph~ I'll forgive you this time, but if it happens again, I will really ignore you."

Suerlun nodded quickly and coaxed the beautiful and elegant girl, and the atmosphere warmed up again.

Pallas couldn't help but ask, "Sullen, since you don't need me to help you get Hestia's blessing, why did you come to my... Lady Athena's temple?"

"Oh, that's it..."

Surren said seriously, "I have thought about what kind of adventure I want, and I came to pray to Lady Athena."

"Oh?" Pallas' eyes lit up, and she said, "Then tell me quickly..."

"Well...I mean, you should talk to Goddess Athena!"

"Goddess Athena, please grant me a happy and perfect love!"

Suren stood under the statue of Athena and said with a hint of anticipation: "This is the life I want, this is my wish."

"Are you praying for love from Lady Athena?" Pallas said in surprise, "If you are seeking love, why don't you go to Aphrodite?"

"My view of love may be different from Aphrodite's view of love."

Suerlun said calmly: "So, I think only the wise goddess Athena can understand me and help me."

"...Beautiful Surun, your prayers and wishes have been heard by the goddess Athena."

Pallas said happily: "The goddess is very pleased with your faith, so she decided to guide you on your own adventure."

"Well, first go to Hestia and borrow the highest level of heavenly fire to burn your mortal body bit by bit. I have some divine ointment here for you to apply. This way you will become invulnerable to swords and guns."

"Ah?" Suer Lun was a little confused. He couldn't help but ask, "I just want to live a peaceful and happy life as a mortal. Why do I need an invulnerable body?"

How can ordinary people be invulnerable to swords and guns?

This thing is rare even among Greek heroes, right?

Pallas turned her head away. She did not tell Surlun that in fact, it was not just the body that was invulnerable to swords and guns. The process of the mortal body being burned by heavenly fire and restored with divine ointment was actually the basis for shedding the mortal body and achieving godhood.

According to legend, Achilles was invulnerable to swords and spears. His mother Thetis wanted to forge a body for her son with fire from heaven. However, someone saw her and disrupted the ritual. So she had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and forge a body with water from the River Styx.

Although the water of the Styx is impervious to swords and spears and is hard to be invaded by gods, it is not as good as the foundation of immortality achieved by forging the body with the heavenly fire. It is only the choice of the second tier.

"Think about it, even if you are an ordinary person, you would also like to have a good physique, right?"

Pallas said seriously: "Without a good body, how can you live a stable life? Disasters often happen in Greece!"

Suerlun looked at her suspiciously and said, "I always feel like you are lying to me, but I have no evidence...Okay, then I will ask Hestia to borrow the Skyfire to forge my body."

"After strengthening the body, the second step is to find someone with good martial arts skills to learn fighting techniques."

Pallas pointed at himself and said, "I am the priest of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, war and victory... When it comes to martial arts, even Chiron is not as good as me. I can teach you the fighting technique of 'Pankrasin'!"

"I know this..." Suer Lun said expressionlessly, "In the next adventure of finding true love, men who can fight are very popular, right?"

"Just like peacocks courting, antelopes fighting... males always need to outsmart other males to get a mate."

"That's right!" Pallas said with a smile, "You can answer quickly now. That's the principle. So do you want to learn it?"

"Of course I have to learn. Compared to a centaur, I think it's great to learn fighting from a humanoid creature like you..."

Suren did not question the authenticity of what Pallas said about his martial arts being better than Chiron's. This was the statue of Athena, and Athena had no objection, which meant that Athena also recognized Pallas' martial arts.

Moreover, centaurs have a pair of hands and four hooves, which are different from humans in structure. It would probably be difficult to learn martial arts from Teacher Ma, right?

Pallas continued, "Once you have an invulnerable body and superb martial arts, you will also need a handy weapon to defend yourself."

"The God of Forge Hephaestus once owed a favor to the goddess Athena. You can use this favor to ask the God of Forge to help you forge a special weapon that suits you."

"…The more I listen, the more familiar it becomes."

Suer Lun rubbed his forehead and said, "Although it feels like déjà vu, what you said makes sense, so let's do it!"

"What else is there after you get the weapon?"

"Once you have the weapons, you can of course set out on an adventure."

Pallas said seriously: "Do you have any special skills?"

Suren knew that the skills that Pallas was talking about were the same as Cynthia's, that is, they were "men's" skills. He certainly wouldn't say that he could cook and that his meals were delicious.

Suerlun thought for a moment and said, "I am very good at archery. Cynthia said that my archery skills are second only to Apollo."

Apollo, the King of Silver Bows, the God of bows and arrows, and the strongest archer in Greece.

Even Artemis, who was famous for his hunting skills, was not as skilled with the bow as his brother Apollo.

Of course, both the brother and sister are the strongest archers in Greece, one is the strongest among the male gods, and the other is the strongest among the goddesses.

“Cynthia…”

Pallas read a few sentences and knew that this was the foreign variant name of Artemis. She nodded and said, "So it's her... Since you can get Cynthia's recognition, it means that your archery skills are invincible in the world."

This is the confidence that Suren has in protecting himself in Greece during the Age of Gods. With a bow in his hand, he is fearless. Even if tens of thousands of enemies come to attack, Suren is confident that he can defeat them all with the arrows in his hand that never miss a target.

"Okay, let's go borrow the sky fire!"

Pallas smiled and sent Suren out.

-

There was no other way. Not knowing what was wrong and feeling that he had been fooled, Suren could only go to the temple of Hestia again and shout to the holy fire: "Hestia, are you there? Your friend and believer Suren needs your help..."

"...Sullen."

Still using that soft and socially anxious voice, Hestia asked in a low voice: "What do you want me to do for you? Or have you thought of what you want..."

Suer Lun had no intention of hiding anything: "It's like this, I need to borrow your heavenly fire to forge my body, so that I can become invulnerable to swords and guns."

"Ah?" Hestia was very surprised. The next moment, she appeared in front of Surren again, looked at him and asked, "Surren, who told you this?"

"It was the revelation of Athena, the goddess of wisdom." Suren said, "I have realized what I want, so I made my request to Athena."

"But the Skyfire Body Forging is very painful..." Hestia said anxiously but gently: "And you are not a demigod. The pain of the Skyfire Body Forging will be countless times more than that of a demigod hero."

Demeter also once blessed a person with the gift of Heavenly Fire forging. Unfortunately, that child did not have a demigod body, and screamed in pain during the forging process, so much so that his mother, who loved him dearly, broke the ceremony and he lost the blessing of Heavenly Fire forging.

The future demigod Achilles did not have this problem. He had half of the essence of God in him. As long as the heavenly fire burned his mortal body, he would have the qualifications to become a god.

The heavenly fire will burn the mortal body, and then apply the divine ointment to make the burnt part grow an invulnerable body, which is equivalent to crushing and reshaping it from head to toe.

"We have to try, right?" Suerlun said, "Can the goddess Athena still harm me?"

"...Then I'll go with you."

Hestia said suddenly.

Sometimes, gods are just so idle, even gods who have not appeared in front of others for hundreds of years.
