I rely on myself

Chapter 452 Together

As for Kusanagi Godou, after figuring out the identities and purposes of Luke and the others, he no longer cared about them.

Perhaps when he first heard about the work of Luke and others, his perception as an ordinary person made him feel a little sympathy, but it was only a little.

After all, Luke and the others didn't need sympathy, and there were other more important things to do, so he soon stopped taking the matter to heart and quickly rushed back to the base to reunite with Liliana and the others.

Then they started discussing Perseus again, but without any clues, there was no way to come to any conclusion. Just when Kusanagi Godou and others were feeling distressed, an unexpected existence suddenly arrived. She was Athena.

When Athena appeared, Kusanagi Godou and others' first reaction was of course to express vigilance, but surprisingly, Athena said that she just came to take a look and had no intention of fighting.

After hearing this answer, everyone confirmed it again and again and then relaxed their vigilance a little. At this time, Kusanagi Godou suddenly made a bold move.

That is to ask Athena about Perseus, and want to know from her what kind of relationship Perseus has with Veleslana.

Athena readily agreed to this, but there was a condition, which was that Kusanagi Kotō must make her a promise that at some point in the future, Kusanagi Kotō must do her a favor.

Of course, Kusanagi Godou did not want to accept this promise. After all, no one knew what Athena would ask him to do at that time.

But due to the imminent threat from Perseus, no matter how reluctant he was, Kusanagi Godou already had the answer in his heart.

Just when Kusanagi Godou was about to agree to the deal, Liliana suddenly stopped him.

Because when negotiating with a high-ranking magician or a god of disobedience, one must be extremely careful and cannot make promises lightly. Once a promise is made, even if it is just a simple statement like "I will do as you say," it could turn into a vow of absolute obedience.

As a godslayer, Kusanagi Godou can of course ignore the oaths made to higher-level magicians, but if the target is a god like Athena, then the situation will be completely different.

It was for this reason that Liliana suddenly stopped him, but because time was urgency, even though he knew that agreeing to the deal would bring great risks to himself, Kusanagi Godou finally made a promise to Athena in exchange for Perseus' secret.

Of course, in order to minimize the risks, Kusanagi Godou also proposed several restrictions to avoid the worst situation.

Although Athena was not very satisfied with the promise made by Kusanagi Godou, she still happily told Kusanagi Godou and others the last piece they were missing, and then turned around and left.

As expected, after obtaining the last piece of information about Perseus' identity, Liliana immediately woke up and understood the relationship between Perseus and Veleslana.

By teaching magic, Liliana transferred all the knowledge about Perseus to Kusanagi Godou, and at this moment the sword in his body was formed.

----------

Night fell once again. Although a huge and unexplained riot had just occurred last night, the streets of Naples became as lively as usual as soon as night fell.

A large number of people were walking on the busy streets, strolling and playing happily, without being affected at all.

This scene was naturally witnessed by Kusanagi Godou who was walking on the street at the time. He sighed from the bottom of his heart for the optimism of the people of Naples.

He said so, but soon he completely forgot about it because he felt the enemy's presence. Although he didn't know where the enemy was now, Kusanagi Godou had a feeling in his heart that as long as he moved in a certain direction, he would be able to find the enemy.

Although this sounds incredible, gods and the like are actually incredible things.

At the same time, Kusanagi Godou has another piece of evidence to prove this, which is his physical condition.

As he felt closer and closer, his body began to heat up, as if endless energy was surging out of his body. His spirits felt the same way, becoming increasingly high, and the thoughts in his mind becoming clearer and clearer.

All these undoubtedly indicate one thing, that is, Kusanagi Godou has now completely entered a state of preparation for battle.

These undoubtedly prove that Kusanagi Godou is indeed getting closer to Perseus.

Just as Kusanagi Godou was thinking about these things, the sound of a flute was suddenly heard.

Although it is a flute, the tone does not sound as clean and sharp as other musical instruments. The sound of the flute is full of simple nostalgia, which is very impressive. It is an incredible melody that always feels a bit sad.

Looking in the direction where the flute sound came from, Kusanagi Godou found his target at a glance, the disobedient Perseus.

I saw that the other person was standing in the crowd and playing the grass flute.

As if sensing Kusanagi Godou's gaze, the melody Perseus played suddenly changed, and the people around him seemed to have just noticed it and made way for him.

"Nice to meet you again, young God Slayer."

Perseus showed a hearty smile. Seeing such a smile, if someone who didn't know the situation well, probably no one would have thought that these two people would start a life-and-death battle.

Because the people around him made way for him, Kusanagi Godou walked over very easily, with Liliana following behind him.

It was obvious that this girl with a strong sense of responsibility could not accept staying in a safe place while Kusanagi Godou went to this dangerous battle alone, so she insisted on following.

As he approached, Kusanagi Godou looked at the handsome being in front of him and sighed in his heart that he was indeed a hero in mythology, but he said unceremoniously: "What should I call you? Should I continue to call you Perseus?"

"Oh……"

Perseus smiled, his face shining like the sun, and threw away the leaf flute he had picked from an unknown tree and answered:
"Did you discover the secret I was hiding? Did Athena tell you?"

"That's right. I really didn't expect that the God would give a fake name."

"To be honest, it's not a pseudonym. I have many different names, and Man from the East is a particularly famous one... This is not a good name. I think this name is the most accepted by people nowadays."

Perseus showed a mischievous smile, and even with this expression, he was still very charming, so this beautiful young man was really annoying, Kusanagi Godou thought from the bottom of his heart.
