Chapter 209:
One of the three virgin goddesses of Olympus.
As we all know, the Greek gods have a debauched and chaotic style.
And she was the first virgin goddess of Olympus.
It is because of her beginning that Artemis, the later moon goddess, and Athena, the goddess of wisdom, became holy virgins together.
The three goddesses, in the debauched court of Olympus, are rare and holy.
It was not difficult for Atalanta to know her, after all, she had already seen her with Jason when she was with the hundred-eyed giant Argos.
"Ah, little Atalanta is here too..."
Hestia, who had posted closely with Jason, looked at her after hearing Atalanta's exclamation.
Seeing this, Atalanta, who had calmed down, hurriedly bowed to Hestia.
At the same time, at this moment, I also understood what Jason's so-called change was...
"That, Goddess Hestia, why are you here..."
Jason looked at Hestia hesitantly.
"It's safe, don't worry, Hera has left, she went to find Athena, that's why I ran over."
Saying that, Hestia rubbed Jason's head with his feet, showing a bright smile.
Hearing this, Jason sighed in relief.
"The great queen Hera... Goddess Hera, go to Goddess Athena...?" Atalanta tilted her head.
"Speaking of which, little Atalanta doesn't know yet." Hestia blinked, then said with a smile, "Little Jason was originally Hera's child, but he was snatched by Hecate. , Because of this incident, Hera is very angry, so she has been doing something recently and bullying little Jason.
But Hera likes Hercules in white very much. "
"Eh?!" Atalanta opened her eyes wide and said to Hestia: "But Goddess Hestia, Hercules in white, Jason...Aren't they alone? !"
"Yeah, now only Hera doesn't know!"
......hiss!
Atalanta took a deep breath.
She looked at Jason.
"Jason, may I get off the boat now?"
Atalanta asked very seriously.
"Sorry, this is a single-ticket boat, as long as you get on, you can't get off the boat!"
Jason refused equally solemnly, then looked at Hestia, and whispered slightly complaining: "Goddess Hestia, what are you telling her about this..."
"Oh, it's alright, little Atalanta is not an outsider... But little Atalanta, if you are free recently, you'd better collect some things and dedicate them to Artemis."
Hestia said to the doubtful Atalante: "Artemis is very angry with you recently, didn't you almost miss the boat in your previous life?
She is still out of breath. "
"Master Artemis is very angry with me?!" Atalanta said with wide eyes: "How could it be possible, how could I have done something that made Master Artemis angry, I... ."
Talking and talking, recalling the unfortunate days some time ago, Atalanta instantly understood the reason.
Actually, the goddess Artemis!
"But, Goddess Hestia, I clearly remember that I never did anything to make Goddess Artemis angry.
Every day I pray devoutly, and there is not a day to relax! "
Thinking that the goddess Artemis was angry with herself, Atalanta, the most devout believer, couldn't help but panic.
At the same time, she was also very puzzled in her heart, wondering what she had done wrong.
It was Jason, who vaguely felt something wrong at this moment...
"Well... it seems that Artemis is angry because you are too close to little Jason."
"......what?"
Atalanta blinked.
"Well, if I remember correctly, it is." Hestia nodded and said, "This is what Apollo told me."
Atalanta was silent for a while.
"Goddess Hestia, you said that I was angry with Goddess Artemis because I was too close to Jason, which means... I am in Goddess Artemis' heart, and Not as tall as him!"
Atalanta pointed at Jason and asked Hestia in disbelief.
Hestia thought for a while and found that it was indeed the case, so she nodded honestly to Atalanta.
So in the next second, Jason found that Atalanta was looking at him, and became fierce again...
Can this be my fault too?
Jason felt depressed.
He said he didn't want the love of Artemis yet.
After all, Artemis' love is really heavy, and he feels that he can't bear it...
Recalling that Artemis looked innocent and bright, talking to Jason, hiding him, playing with him every day, only the memory of the two of them.
Jason couldn't help shivering.
"Cough, Goddess Hestia, do you have anything to do with me?"
Jason, who was holding his arm by Hestia, asked off topic.
"Ah, yes, I almost forgot." Hestia knocked on his head, then looked at Jason, and said, "Little Jason, are you mad at Athena?"
Jason's eyes widened slightly when he heard this.
"Goddess Hestia, what are you talking about..."
Atalanta looked at Jason and blinked.
Because she found out that Jason was panicking now...
Eh, angry?
Aren't you giving her a tribute?
Atalanta found herself a little confused.
"It was Pegasus who told me that, so I hurried over to see you." Hestia pointed to Pegasus beside him.
Jason followed and looked at Tianma, and Tianma shuddered violently under Jason's silent gaze, and hurriedly cried out.
It said that it had accidentally heard it from Cerberus, the three-headed dog of hell, and Cerberus had accidentally heard it from the small talk of Hecate and Persephone... .
"What happened to little Jason, haven't you always liked Athena, and Athena has always liked you?"
Hestia blinked and said to Jason, "Why do you hate her all of a sudden?"
"I don't hate her..."
"Little Jason, this seems to be the first time I've heard a lie from you." Hestia couldn't help laughing.
Hearing this, Jason couldn't help but be speechless for a moment. He found that he was in such a hurry that he would lie to the gods!
"Did something happen?"
Then Hestia's voice softened, and said to Jason with a smile: "Would you like to tell me, child...don't worry, I won't tell anyone what happened today, I May I swear to the river of oath!"
When Jason heard this, he couldn't help but look at Hestia.
Hestia also looked at Jason tenderly, reached out, touched Jason's eyes lightly, and said with a smile, "My child, your eyes are still so beautiful... I I don't want to see it polluted, and I don't want to see you sad.
so can you tell me? "
Jason opened his mouth speechlessly, and he realized that Hestia really cared about him.
Jason was silent for a long time, recalling the encounter with Hestia when he was a child, and what happened with her, and finally gritted his teeth lightly, saying: "Goddess Hestia, I... Willing to be a hero."
"Well, I know." Hestia nodded with a smile.
"But Athena wants me to be a hero... I know, this tribute is not so much my tribute to Athena her.
It would be better to say that Goddess Athena wanted to take this opportunity to let me get rid of the shackles of my body completely and become a real hero with real responsibility! "
Didn't Jason understand what Athena was really thinking?
No, he always understood.
"...So, for Athena, it is indeed the best tribute."
Hestia looked at Jason for a while in a daze, and finally said softly.
Through Jason's words, Hestia understood and understood the true meaning of the Golden Fleece trip.
Completing the feat of changing fate and getting out of trouble is actually not a tribute that Athena values.
What she really values is Jason's change in this incident.
Jason becomes a real hero... This is the tribute that Athena is most looking forward to seeing.
To put it simply, for Athena, her most important tribute has always been Jason...
And Jason knew that too.
He has long understood Athena's thoughts... When he learned that Athena handed over Jason's original fate to Hera, Jason actually guessed Athena's true intentions.
After all Athena, Jason was also very familiar with her.
But that's what makes Jason angry.
Did Athena do it wrong? ...actually she did nothing wrong.
And this is indeed for Jason's sake and for Jason's good.
Because Athena already knew about the god-killing thing, and knew that Jason would get that sword sooner or later!
That's why she will help Jason and make him stronger as soon as possible.
But she overlooked something...
"I don't want to be a big hero."
Jason always said that he didn't want to be a hero.
So naturally, he didn't want to pull out that God-killing sword at all!
Although, what he has done along the way has long been a heroic thing.
The distance between him and the God-killing Sword was also getting closer and closer.
But he actually didn't want to do it at all!
When things came to him, he would accept it and try to do it, but Jason... actually never wanted to!
Let me ask, when the name of Hercules in white rang out in the world, when his great cause spread to every corner of the Greek mainland, Jason, he smiled because of this, was he happy?
Obviously, no.
That's why Jason felt angry when he knew what Athena was thinking.
Because he really wanted to tell Athena everything, hoping that Athena could help him find a way to get rid of it all.
He...really doesn't want to be a hero.
Because being a hero is too tiring.
But in Athena's heart, Jason should be a hero.
Even in Athena's view, the person who should be the most hero in the world is Jason!

PS: I have overcompleted the task today. It is not too much to ask for the counting of votes!
Inexplicably, I always feel that I have dug more and more holes... When did this **** write on my behalf when it was a head, hey, I feel a little helpless myself.
But the plot has been written up to now, and I'm waiting for me to fill in the pits. I can't just find a reason, just run away regardless of anything.
I haven't even touched the plot of Zeus.
A story has to have a beginning and an end.
