Type-Moon, I heard that after death, you can ascend to the Throne of Heroes?.

The river goddess Aegina had a beautiful smile on her face, and she looked at the boy with black hair and clear green eyes in front of her with a gentle expression.

"Hey, can Goddess Aegina see it?" Nuoyan waved the brush in his hand and looked at Aegina with some surprise.

"Yeah." Aegina smiled, and the smile on her face became more gentle, and she said softly: "After all, you were even humming a song just now."

"Ah, sorry, Goddess Aegina..."

"No, it's okay." Aegina hurriedly shook her head and said to Nuoyan: "I just feel very happy. I am really happy to see you so happy... By the way, kid, can you tell me why you are happy?"

"Well... because I think I have done something very meaningful." Nuoyan thought about it and answered.

This is not a lie, but...

The quality of the heroic spirit is C, C!

This journey has just begun, and it has improved a big quality, directly jumping from E grade to C!

Although it is C-, it has also jumped a whole big level!

And it has only been a short time. Even if you add the half month he was asleep, it has only been two months since he said goodbye to Jason.

Only two months at most!

With such a speed of improvement, Nuoyan instantly felt that his future was bright.

Moreover, this was the first time he had created a Heroic Spirit with the golden finger of the Heroic Spirit Class Card.

If he could reach A-level for the first time... No, he could directly reach S-level or even the crown.

What would the future be like? Nuoyan said that he didn't even dare to think about it!

How bright it would be!

Ah, praise the goddess of justice Themis!

Thinking of this, the smile on Nuoyan's face became more obvious.

If he hadn't been busy painting now, he would have taken out the harp and played one or two songs...

Nuoyan can play the harp.

Remember when Jason asked Nuoyan to go down the mountain?

At that time, Nuoyan was playing the harp, playing a sad melody.

And he learned the art of playing the harp from Orpheus.

Orpheus is the son of Apollo, the god of light, and also one of the crew members of the future Argonauts.

His most famous story is that he entered the underworld for his wife, moved Hades and Hades with his piano, and obtained the qualification to bring his wife from the underworld to the human world.

The condition was that Orpheus was not allowed to look back on the way back to the human world from the underworld.

But in the end, Orpheus violated this agreement. When he was about to arrive in the human world, he couldn't help but look back to comfort his wife because of his wife's crying and scolding.

In the end, they were separated forever and could never meet again.

Yes, Nuoyan was indeed the last one under Chiron, and Jason was the second to last.

But Nuoyan, the last one, was actually very different from Jason.

After all, compared with Jason, who didn't want to learn anything, had a headache when he mentioned learning, and always told Chiron not to teach him, and he couldn't learn it even if he taught him.

Nuoyan was quite positive and willing to learn everything.

The reason is very simple. After all, Nuoyan's body is not here. It doesn't matter whether he lives or dies. In fact, his biggest goal and wish is to go to the throne of heroes after death.

When he was studying on Chiron's mountain, he had nothing else to do. He could only learn more and see if he could get a legendary achievement.

This is the same as entering a game and seeing a bright place, you can't help but want to click once or twice to see if the achievement pops up.

And facing Nuoyan's vigorous energy... as long as he has nothing to do, he wants to go down the mountain and die.

And he didn't dare to let Nuoyan, who was fragile and seemed to be blown to the underworld by the wind, do excessive training.

Chiron naturally put a lot of effort in other aspects.

Therefore, let's not mention the painting skills that have surpassed Chiron and even won the graduation award.

Nuoyan learned the art of playing the zither from Orpheus, learned medical skills from Asclepius, the god of medicine who can even save the dead in the future, and learned hunting techniques from Meleager, who will launch the hunt for the Calydonian boar in the future.

Not to mention learning to use the sword with Theseus and learning to use the bow and arrow with Hercules.

And it was also because of this that Nuoyan had a good relationship with everyone, so good that every time they went down the mountain, they had to grab Nuoyan's neck and bring him to Chiron's door, asking him to take good care of Nuoyan before they could go down the mountain with peace of mind.

Otherwise, how did Nuoyan get his full book of grudges?

In the end, only Jason was fooled and took him down the mountain!

And this was also the reason why Chiron ran down the mountain secretly and only left protection on Nuoyan.

Although there is no distinction between teaching and learning, who doesn't like to meet such a student who is willing to learn and listen to everything!

It can only be said that if he didn't seek death, he would be perfect in Chiron's heart!

......

At this moment, for Nuoyan's answer, the river goddess Aegina, who was slightly stunned, looked at Nuoyan with a softer look.

It has even reached the point where, if she hadn't been afraid of the gently shaking scales of judgment beside Nuoyan, and didn't know when Athena and the others would come back.

Aegina would have already... on a dark and windy night! ! !

Just when Aegina had just thought of this, the scales of judgment beside Nuoyan shook a little more violently, frightening Aegina to stop thinking quickly, lowered her head and honestly served as a model, allowing Nuoyan to draw her on the canvas.

And Nuoyan also drew very seriously.

After all, he still remembered that there was an achievement called [Painting for Athena] in his legend column.

This must be a picture for all the gods of Olympus!

It's just a pity that now they are all blank folders that have just been created.

At the same time, Nuoyan has always been very concerned about the feeling of drawing Athena as if it was an epiphany.

So facing the goddess who was willing to be his model, Nuoyan naturally put in twelve points of attention to see if he could reproduce the original feeling.

The result was that Nuoyan found that he thought too much.

It can only be said that inspiration is something that can only be encountered but not sought!

Three days and three nights later,

That evening.

When the blue sky was rendered into dusk by the setting sun.

After not knowing how many scraps were thrown away, Nuoyan finally drew a relatively satisfactory portrait and presented it to Aegina.

To be honest, Aegina couldn't tell the difference, and she felt distressed when she saw Nuoyan's discarded paintings, thinking that every one of them was beautiful.

After all, those paintings were all of her.

Even when Nuoyan finished painting, she was not only happy, but also a little regretful.

Because during these three days, Nuoyan, who was painting seriously, not only made her unable to take her eyes off, but also because during these three days, he only looked at her...

Thinking of this, Aegina couldn't help but look at the shaking scales of judgment beside Nuoyan again, and lowered her head in disappointment.

"Well, goddess Aegina, is my painting not good enough?"

Seeing this, Nuoyan said with some confusion and nervousness.

Hearing this, the flustered river god Aegina had not yet answered.

"Of course it's not that your painting is not good enough, but someone's deep heart has emerged the ugliest desire..."

The familiar and elegant pleasant voice reached Nuoyan's ears.

Under Nuoyan's slightly surprised eyes, he tilted his head.

The goddess of wisdom Athena, whose beautiful silver hair fell to her waist, and the goddess of justice Themis, who was wearing a white robe, covered her eyes with a white cloth, and was meticulous, only the beauty mole at the corner of her mouth added a bit of charm to her, returned here together.

Aegina was immediately frightened by their return and lowered her head.

And Athena ignored her after glancing at her lightly.

Because Aegina was not qualified to be ridiculed by Athena.

Even if Aegina dressed herself up to the best, when Athena stood beside her, she was not even a green leaf to serve as a foil.

Then Athena smiled lightly on her face and came to Nuoyan.

"Are you okay? Is there anything wrong with your body?"

Athena asked Nuoyan.

"Yes, it's okay, Goddess Athena..."

Before Nuoyan finished speaking, his mouth was stuffed with something... Athena skillfully stuffed the golden apple into his mouth, hoping that he would not be blown to the underworld by a gust of wind.

After watching Nuoyan eat two bites of the golden apple, Athena took the painting in Aegina's hand with confidence, took a look at it, and turned around and said.

"Come together."

After saying that, Themis on the side put away the scales of judgment, touched Nuoyan's head, and took him out of the room.

The moment one person and three goddesses stepped out of the tower, Nuoyan felt that his eyes flashed, and he came to a small river not far from the kingdom.

Standing by the river with the sunset hanging high in the sky, holding the painting in her hand, Athena turned her head and asked Nuoyan: "Nuoyan, do you think your ordinary canvas and the brush in your hand are really qualified to depict the figure of a god in it?"

Nuoyan was stunned when he heard it. He had never thought about this question.

After all, he has only painted two gods so far, one is Athena and the other is the river god Aegina.

"In fact, when you painted our figures on the canvas, we knew it... The more similar you painted, the stronger our perception would be."

"Even when you were painting, it was like praying to us, and we could clearly sense your existence."

Back then, in Jason's hometown, Athena suddenly appeared beside Nuoyan because she noticed that Nuoyan was sketching herself, and thus became interested.

"At the same time, let me tell you one thing, Nuoyan, that is, every god you have sketched so far is actually not ordinary."

As she said, under Nuoyan's somewhat confused eyes, Athena chuckled and threw the painting of Aegina in her hand into the air.

"Because whether it was me or this painting of Aegina, you got our consent and approval before painting, so what you have been painting is not an ordinary portrait, but... a real god!"

At this point, the painting flying into the air began to disappear little by little, turning into faint starlight and dispersing.

"So your canvas can engrave us, precisely because we want you to stay, it represents our gaze on you.

And when you really need it, you can connect to the gods through it, and then we will naturally respond to you, through this painting, to give you... a gift!"

When Athena said this, the painting in the sky also completely dissipated.

At the same time, Nuoyan felt an inexplicable power.

Under the pull of that power, Nuoyan subconsciously looked at the river water on the side.

The next moment, as he thought, the river water formed a water column and rose into the air.

The river goddess Aegina on the side looked at all this with a smile... Yes, this is her power.

At the same time, this is also the reason why Athena has not dared to tell Hera that the painting she had shown to all the gods was actually a promise.

After all, a painting like that is actually a gift from God.

Through it, you can not only pray for gifts from the gods, but even when necessary, the gods can rely on it to come directly to you.

This is a gift that can only be given to a child you truly love.

Therefore, as long as Hera knew that Athena's painting was done by Promise, she would instantly know another thing, that is, Athena had evil intentions towards Promise...!

But is this the point?

Of course not, when Athena told Nuoyan all this, and Nuoyan also felt the power from Aegina, he understood one thing instantly.

There is no doubt that this is the Noble Phantasm he has been looking for for a long time!

A special treasure that only belongs to his promise!

And when the promise came to this point, even breathing became stagnant.

"But losing a beautiful painting every time you use it is really too extravagant, and because your canvas is too ordinary, my child, even if we deliberately leave the divine power behind, your painting will fade away over time. Dissipate little by little.

therefore......"
