Chapter 249:
Theseus explained to Jason.
The truth of the matter is actually not as easy as Theseus said.
Jason had been away for a month, and as captain of the Argonaut, he was the soul of the Golden Fleece journey.
His unannounced farewell naturally had many follow-up effects.
Especially after Hercules left, the Argo almost ushered in the ending of disbanding in situ.
Fortunately, the centaur sage came here at the most critical time.
Hearing what Theseus said, scanning everyone present, Jason, who took a deep breath, suddenly bowed his head to them and said, "Sorry!"
"I'm not a qualified captain, and I haven't fulfilled my responsibilities!"
Seeing this, many people were stunned.
"Jason, don't say that, we all know you have more important things to do..."
Theseus was halfway through speaking, but was interrupted again by Jason.
"No, this is undoubtedly my fault, no matter what reason I have, but I left without saying goodbye and left the responsibility that should belong to me to you.
And it's only today that I'm back, that's my captain's disqualification! "
After speaking, Jason bowed deeply to everyone present again to apologize.
Seeing this, everyone can't help but feel a little uncomfortable.
Especially now that I know that the hero in white who moved the whole world and was favored by the gods is Jason, who is their captain now.
Seeing Jason apologize like this, they felt even more unbearable.
Just when they made a sound, saying that they don't care, Jason doesn't have to do this, and it's noisy.
"You just accept it."
At this moment, Chiron, who spoke softly, overwhelmed everyone.
When everyone gathered their eyes on Chiron, Chiron was still smiling, but his expression became serious at the same time, and he said to everyone present: "You are qualified to accept the apology from Jason, no matter what he is. Who is it!
As Jason said, he did not fulfill his duty and failed you.
Remember, promises are like gold.
What was promised must be done.
Even if there are thousands of reasons, if you fail to fulfill your responsibilities, you will be disqualified! "
Hearing Chiron's words, many people fell silent.
The people on the boat are all the favored sons of heaven, and most of them are people with names and surnames in Greece.
Even many people are still princes.
Therefore, they have their own pride and it is difficult to listen to what others have to say.
But right now, the person who sincerely apologized to them is the hero in white who has shocked the world and is regarded as a legendary figure by many people.
The one who taught them was Chiron the centaur sage.
Therefore, they were indeed greatly shocked and touched, and all this was deeply remembered in their hearts.
Atalanta didn't say anything, quietly watching everything in front of her.
Looking at these heroes who were taught by Chiron and taught by Jason's words and deeds, silently absorbing, thinking, and unknowingly changing little by little.
Those emerald eyes finally stopped on Jason who was apologizing.
The corners of his mouth rose slightly.
A beautiful smile appeared on his face.
After a while,
The noisy environment gradually subsided.
Many people gathered and left the deck, and with some insiders, excitedly inquired about Jason.
To be more precise, it was the rumor that the gods were nostalgic for the hero.
Jason didn't know, since when, his story was sung by bards and spread widely in the world.
If you insist on chasing the reason... Obviously it has nothing to do with the gods!
Because of the tribute, they knew so clearly.
Therefore, even if Jason wanted to stop it, there was nothing he could do.
After a while, everyone left.
Jason originally wanted to have a word with Chiron or Theseus, but found that they were walking very fast.
In the blink of an eye, the ship armor that was still lively was deserted.
Only Jason and Atalanta are left...
"Atalanta."
Jason came to the beautiful Miss Hunter and whispered to her.
"Ok."
Atalanta replied calmly.
"Sorry, I didn't expect to be away for so long..."
"It's okay." Atalanta said: "I'm already mentally prepared... Is it going well?"
"It's going well," said Jason, with a smile on his face: "Goddess Hera is willing to let go of her prejudice against me... I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."
Hearing this, Atalanta paused slightly.
Then he looked at Jason, his eyes very strange.
"It's alright... Forget it, it's you after all." After speaking, Atalanta shook her head again and said, "It's not strange enough about you... how did you do it? ?"
In the end, Atalanta couldn't resist curiosity.
And Jason tilted his head and looked at Atalanta who was looking at him curiously, at her delicate face and beautiful holy blue eyes.
When he was attracted by it and couldn't look away, Jason replied casually: "Oh, nothing, just stabbed the heart a few times with an artifact, and then was brought back to the underworld by the teacher for rescue.
Because of this, he even went to the abyss Tartarus.
Finally, I went up to the holy mountain of Olympus again, and finally got the result. "
Atalanta: ...?
Atalanta blinked, looked at Jason in a daze, and said, "What did you just say... Can you say it again?"
Seeing this, Jason couldn't help laughing.
While repeating, he stretched out his hand and squeezed Atalanta's cheek.
If it was in the past, Atalanta would definitely have photographed Jason's pig hand.
but now......
After a very interesting change, Atalanta's expression finally turned into speechlessness and numbness.
"you......"
His lips parted slightly, and Jason's face was reflected in his eyes.
Atalanta took a long time, but she didn't know what to say about it.
In the end, Jason took the initiative to change the subject.
"By the way, Atalanta, after this incident is over, are you interested in meeting my teacher with me?"
Jason looked at Atalanta with a hint of anticipation, and said, "My teacher will definitely welcome you."
"Your teacher?...Which teacher?"
"Master Hecate."
"...The noble goddess of the road, goddess Hecate?" Atalanta's expression became strange again, and she said to Jason: "If I remember correctly, she is in the underworld, right? ?"
"Well, I also want to take you to see Sister Persephone, brother-in-law Hades, and Cerberus... Well, forget it, don't see Cerberus, I don't know if she has come out of the abyss now.
I'm afraid of being chased and bitten by her. "
Smelling Jason's babble, Atalanta, who gradually recovered, thought for a while.
"okay."
"...Eh." Jason was stunned for a while, looked at Atalanta, and said, "You just... agreed?"
"Didn't you invite me?"
"No, that's the underworld!"
"I see you running to the underworld every three days. It's very easy... In fact, I have long wanted to go and see, and to meet the respected goddess Hecate."
Atalanta just finished speaking.
boom......
Hearing a soft sound, a moonstone fell beside Atalanta, who was holding his head...
"Master Artemis, I'm just going to see, I will never betray you, I'm not the same as Jason at all, I swear to you!"
Atalanta, holding her head, hurriedly explained to the bright moon in the sky.
Seeing this, Jason didn't have time to gloat.
Bang, bang... bang bang bang bang!
Stone after stone fell on Jason.
At the same time, a dissatisfied coquettish voice still sounded in Jason's ears.
"Humph, I'm going too, why didn't you invite me, little Jason, I'm going to play, I'm going too, why do you only invite little Atalanta, little Jason, you're partial, partial!"
While speaking angrily, pieces of moonstone smashed down at Jason.
In this regard, Jason did not dare to hide, he could only bear it.
At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh.
Talking to Atalanta is a real risk, being watched by Artemis the whole time...
And Lord Artemis, it's not that I don't invite you, but I really don't dare!
If I invite you, the troublesome Hecate will definitely kick me away and not see me for a long time!
After being smashed by the moonstone for a while, the shiny moonstones piled up in a small pile beside Jason before they stopped.
After this interruption, Jason had to cut off the idea of continuing to communicate with Atalanta. After the two prayed to Artemis, they packed up the moonstone. This god's 'gift' returned to the ship. .
When the two walked into the boat, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
Then the two looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.
"Speaking of...it should be coming soon."
Atalanta remembered something and said to Jason.
"Well, it's almost time." Jason nodded. "It's estimated that in a few days, we will arrive at Colchis... Hey, I have a headache when I talk about this."
Jason sighed: "Mr. Hecate gave me a death order this time, asking me to solve the matter with my sister and sister Medea. If I can't solve it, I will solve it!
Oh, it's hard to bear..."
When Jason finished speaking, Atalanta, who was walking beside him, suddenly stopped.
"Senior sisters... Medea?"
Grabbing the point directly, Atalanta, who heard the name for the first time, repeated to Jason.
Seeing this, Jason was stunned.
Then he reacted instantly and said that he had leaked his mouth...
"Senior sisters and sisters...I seem to have heard you mention it once."
Atalanta said: "You have a senior sister, and she is your sister... But what does this have to do with the destination Colchis?
