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

"Oh, by the way, little Nuoyan." Looking at the golden apple, Artemis just remembered and said to Nuoyan: "Little Nuoyan, remember to see little Ata when you have time. She is still angry with you now."

"Angry?" Nuoyan was slightly stunned and looked at Artemis in confusion.

"Little Nuoyan, you forgot that you didn't say goodbye to little Ata when you left that day. She had been waiting for you in Calydon. Later, she came to me and found out that you had left long ago."

Hearing this, Nuoyan's body stiffened slightly. He remembered that in order to avoid Meleager, he couldn't wait to follow Hermes and ran away that day. He really forgot about this.

"Little Ata was very angry later." Artemis blinked and said to Nuoyan with a smile: "She also said in front of me that she would hunt you next time she saw you!"

Nuoyan was dumbfounded.

He didn't expect that he could avoid Artemis, but he couldn't avoid Atalanta!

Atalanta has told Artemis about this, so the next time they meet, she will definitely be hunted!

"Atalanta, may I ask the respected goddess Artemis, is that person beautiful?" Eurydice, who noticed something, came over and couldn't help asking, and the laurel goddess Daphne pricked up her ears curiously.

"Little Atalanta is very cute." Without waiting for the moon goddess Artemis to answer, Apollo smiled and answered for her: "She is a smart, cute and energetic child."

"Oh!" Eurydice understood, she smiled and looked at Nuoyan, saying: "Nuoyan, this is your fault, how can you ignore such a lovely woman?"

"No, she and I are actually..." Nuoyan was going to explain, but seeing that Orpheus was in high spirits and came over, Nuoyan felt that this matter was probably impossible to explain, and the more he explained, the darker it became, so he simply stopped talking.

After rolling his eyes at the two guys and telling Artemis and Apollo that he knew, Pegasus spread his silver-white wings and prepared to take Nuoyan away.

"Wait a minute, Nuoyan!" At this moment, Orpheus and Eurydice called him at the same time.

Nuoyan looked at them like this and couldn't help laughing: "What's wrong, don't you want to be avenged by me?"

The two looked at each other and laughed together, and then as if they had discussed it with everyone so far, they looked at Nuoyan and said to him: "Nuoyan, tell me, is Teacher Chiron confused?"

"Huh?" Nuoyan was stunned.

"Because, he actually asked you to go down the mountain!"

Chapter 73 Hera, you came just in time! (3k)

"Oh, by the way, brother Ma, I haven't apologized to you yet."

Under the stars in the night, Nuoyan, sitting on the Pegasus, holding the reins, said to the Pegasus Pegasus in the gentle night breeze.

Pegasus tilted his head and looked at Nuoyan, with human doubts in his eyes.

"Look, didn't I accidentally tear your painting?" Nuoyan said, showing an embarrassed expression.

The reason why Pegasus was willing to give Nuoyan the chance to catch him was actually because of the painting Nuoyan drew for him. Nuoyan naturally remembered it.

Later, the painting was always a prop for Nuoyan to summon Pegasus.

Pegasus shook his head and called Nuoyan twice softly, saying that he didn't need to care.

Because since Nuoyan caught him, the painting didn't matter. And even if there was no painting now, no matter where Nuoyan was, he would definitely hear it as long as he called it.

"Well... wait until I get the pen and canvas, and then I will draw you another one, how about that?" Nuoyan didn't understand what Pegasus meant, and he was relieved to see that it didn't blame him.

Pegasus nodded when he heard it. It was good to have a painting, so that he could summon it directly when he encountered danger, just like in the underworld.

"But speaking of brushes and canvases... Do you think I should find some time to go find the goddess Athena?" Nuoyan thought, "It's been a while since she told me about this, and there's no news at all."

Moreover, he hasn't seen her since the Calydonian boar incident.

Thinking about all the things that have happened recently, but she didn't come out to watch the fun, Nuoyan really felt a little uncomfortable.

Pegasus didn't speak and continued on his way.

It said that it was a very smart Pegasus, and it knew exactly when to speak and when to eat grass!

Later, Nuoyan, who was dozing off a little bit, fell asleep unconsciously.

What Nuoyan didn't know was that Pegasus stopped just as he fell asleep, because a chariot in the night sky ran over... It was the chariot of Nyx, the goddess of the night, one of the five original gods in ancient Greek mythology.

From the carriage, Nyx, wearing a divine robe decorated with night and stars, appeared with a smile. She carried the sleeping Nuoyan into the carriage, and Pegasus stood with the horses incarnated by the night, pulling the carriage of the night to run among the stars.

After a long time, when Nuoyan woke up, he found that the sky had already brightened.

And the destination had been reached.

Pegasus took Nuoyan and stopped in front of the temple built by Demeter for Persephone.

After landing, Nuoyan looked at the hundred-eyed giant Argos in front of him, who was looking at him with two giant lions, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned for a while.

"Argos, why are you still here?" Nuoyan asked in confusion.

In response, Argos was silent.

The hundreds of eyes on his body looked at Nuoyan, even showing some resentment and grievance, saying: "You have not come out since you entered the temple that day.

I thought something happened to you, and I was hesitating whether to rush into the temple..."

Nuoyan was stunned when he heard it, and then he looked extremely embarrassed, bowed his head and said apologetically: "Sorry Argos, I should have told you my story as soon as possible."

"It's okay." Argos shook his head, stood up, and said: "As long as you are okay, I can have the face to see the honorable Queen Hera."

As he said that, Argos turned around and walked away step by step. Every step his huge body took made the ground tremble.

"Forget it, find time to compensate it." Looking at his departing back, and then looking at the temple in front of him, Nuoyan shook his head and did not chase him because there were more important things.

Then he raised his head and was about to say something to the two giant lions guarding the door.

But they had already opened the door for him, and they lay down very obediently, wagging their tails for him, as if welcoming him...

Not only that, when Nuoyan just walked into the temple, he found that his nymphs were even more enthusiastic than last time, chirping and talking to Nuoyan, just like when Nuoyan was in the underworld. Nuoyan dealt with them for a long time, until...

"Ahem...what are you doing?"

A gentle but unpleasant voice sounded, and all the nymphs stopped moving in an instant, then obediently left Nuoyan's side, standing on both sides with their heads down.

And Nuoyan looked at the goddess Demeter who was walking towards him, wearing a circular crown woven with golden wheat ears, with kind eyes and a very maternal atmosphere.

Thinking that Persephone was still in the underworld, he was the culprit. Although he was mentally prepared to return here, he still felt a little guilty.

"Goddess Demeter, I..." Then, when Demeter came to him, the two looked at each other, and Nuoyan was about to say something when he saw her with a complicated expression.

"Come with me." Demeter interrupted him.

Turning around, he brought Nuoyan to the beautiful courtyard pavilion that day.

As soon as he arrived here, Nuoyan saw Demeter turning around and looking at him, and suddenly swore to him: "I, the goddess of agriculture, Demeter, swear in my name that I will never let the earth wither, all things wither, and let desolation come to the world in this life."

When Demeter's oath was just established, in the ancient temple of fate.

The two sisters of Clotho, the goddess of fate, witnessed with their own eyes that the thread of fate connected to Nuoyan's crystal ball began to derive and change into those futures that would never be born.

"Ah... It seems that we have something to be busy for a short time."

The sick Lachesis spread her hands helplessly, complaining, but smiling on her face.

"Sorry, sister..." Clotho, holding the crystal ball, said very embarrassedly.

"Hey, it's okay, after all, this is all for my lovely sister, and your little guy who made trouble for us."

Lachesis waved her hand to indicate that it was okay, and then thought for a while and said: "But it's really annoying to always cause trouble for us. Next time, sister, you have to teach him a lesson on our behalf when you see him!"

Clotho nodded gently and agreed: "Okay, I'll hit him with the ball."

What's the difference between the force you hit him with and gently rubbing him... Even Atropos, who has no emotions, moved his mouth twice at this time, and was about to say something but stopped.

But in the end, he said nothing.

After all, who made her their sister.

......

"Goddess Demeter..."

Hearing her oath, Nuoyan, who came back to his senses, naturally looked at her in surprise.

"You have completed the test I gave you... Although my daughter's departure makes me very sad, I find that I can't be angry with you."

Demeter looked at Nuoyan in front of her with a complex and gentle look. After all, she was an absolute participant in this event this time. She witnessed how Nuoyan came to her and completed the test with incredible behavior.

"Not only can I not be angry with you, I am also happy for you from the bottom of my heart... Hera really has a good believer." Demeter said with emotion.

And it's really a bit of a waste to give it to her...

At the same time, I couldn't help thinking so in my heart.

"Oh, by the way, Demeter, I came here to talk about this. Goddess Persephone will be back in about ten days." Nuoyan said after coming back to his senses.

"...Eh?" Demeter, who was stunned, blinked at Nuoyan.

"My daughter, will she come back?" Demeter opened her eyes wide with disbelief.

"Of course, because I promised you, Goddess Demeter."

Nuoyan nodded and said, "Even if I really want to take Goddess Persephone away, I must get your consent..."

Speaking of this, Nuoyan paused for a moment, then smiled at Demeter in front of him and said, "Goddess Demeter, you don't think that I am a person who does not keep my promise, do you?"

"No, no!" Demeter waved her hands in a panic and said, "I didn't think about it that way. It's just that my daughter... she finally ran away and was willing to come back. I really didn't expect it! "

When Nuoyan heard this, he blinked at Demeter, and he found that he roughly understood how the mother and daughter got along.

But it’s no wonder that Demeter felt that Persephone wouldn’t come back. After all, on the way to Hades that day, Persephone had already said that she didn’t care about the horrors of the underworld and was still willing to stay in the underworld.

"That's it." The expression on Demeter's face softened, and she lost the sadness and confusion at the beginning. She laughed from the bottom of her heart and said, "My daughter will come back... .”

After saying that, Demeter looked at Nuoyan, and the last trace of estrangement disappeared in her eyes.

Some are full of eyes like a mother looking at her lovely child.

So she couldn't help it any longer, stretched out her hand to Nuoyan, and greeted him: "Child, come here."

With that said, Demeter, who held his hand, took Nuoyan to the pavilion and sat down.

She looked at him lovingly and said, "Did you suffer in the underworld?"

suffer?

Nuoyan recalled the days when he was in the underworld and couldn't help but nod.

Suffer indeed.

There was a time when I was afraid that Hades would not be able to bear it anymore, so he would grab himself and throw him into the River Styx.

By the way, I remember that there was a hero who took a dip in the water of the Styx and later became invulnerable...

Just when Nuoyan suddenly thought of it.

"Sister, sister, why don't you keep your promise?"

Beautiful golden curls flowed out from under the crown, and the most noble goddess of Olympus, Queen Hera, came here at this time.

And at this moment, she no longer looked as majestic and elegant as before, and she looked very flustered.

"I heard that Nuoyan child came to see you again. How are you, Nuoyan? It's okay..."

The anxious Hera was about to ask whether Nuoyan was hurt, whether Demeter had hurt him, and vented her anger at losing her daughter on Nuoyan.

Then he saw Demeter sitting next to Nuoyan in the pavilion, looking like he was asking for help.

...Eh?

When Hera saw this, she froze in place and blinked.

"Hera, you came just in time. I happen to have something to discuss with you."

Looking at Demeter, who smiled happily and eagerly after discovering her, and said so.

Hera suddenly had a very bad feeling.

How can I put it... It's exactly the same feeling as when I found out that Athena was thinking about her things!

Chapter 74 Although there is no oath, Hera, you are my goddess! (6k)

goddess of agriculture,

Inside the temple of Demeter.

Hera, who came over, looked at the scene of Demeter greeting Nuoyan with a strange expression. After she breathed a sigh of relief and felt a little inexplicably funny, she found an excuse to let Nuoyan leave temporarily.

Then she and Demeter walked along the corridor in the temple.

"Hera, what do you want from me?" Demeter asked Hera gently.
