After Jason comforted the golden-horned deer, he rolled his eyes and said to Hecate, "Teacher Hecate, are we ready to go to the underworld now?"

"Hmm." Hecate looked at Jason, who seemed to have something to say, and asked, "Why, is there somewhere else you want to go?"

Jason hesitated for a moment, then looked at Hecate cautiously and said, "Before going to the underworld, I want to see Teacher Chiron again."

"Go if you want to. Why are you staring at me like that?"

I'm just afraid that you'll be angry... Jason thought so and gave Hecate a very bright smile.

So not long after, under the power of Hecate, before Demeter returned.

Jason and the golden-horned deer were teleported to Arcadia by Hecate.

Centaur Sage, outside Chiron's Piriwen Cave.

After being teleported, Hecate did not follow him in, but left a phoenix disc on Jason's body.

Just let him call my name under the moonlight when he is about to leave.

"Oh, right."

And when leaving, Hecate seemed to suddenly think of something, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a smile that made Jason feel uncomfortable.

"When you come to the underworld this time, I hope you are mentally prepared, because there is a surprise waiting for you in the underworld."

After saying this, Hecate left.

A surprise? ...What other surprise could there be besides tempering my soul with Hellfire?

Although Jason was confused, he couldn't figure it out for a while, so he walked into the Pilwen Cave with the golden-horned deer.

As soon as he walked in, Jason saw Hercules who happened to be going out.

"Junior Brother Jason? ...Junior Brother Jason, you're back!"

After not seeing Jason for half a year, Hercules, who had grown taller and stronger, couldn't help but show a look of surprise when he saw Jason.

Excited, I wanted to go up and give Jason a hug.

Jason hadn't responded yet.

The golden-horned deer kicked Hercules away with its hoof without any hesitation.

"Wait a minute, Sister Lu, he's my senior brother and my best friend!"

When Jason saw this, his heart almost jumped out of his chest!

Sister Lu, you are really brave. You probably don’t know who you are kicking. He is Hercules, the illegitimate son of Zeus!

"It hurts, what...is this deer?" Hercules, who was kicked aside by the deer's hoof and got up, looked at the golden-horned deer with a little surprise.

"Brother Hercules, this golden-horned deer was sent by the noble goddess Artemis to protect me. She didn't mean to do that!"

Jason hurried forward to help Hercules up, and while explaining, he also told Hercules its identity and asked Hercules to be obedient.

Jason remembered that one of the twelve trials of Hercules was to hunt the golden-horned deer.

"Master Artemis?"

Hearing this, Hercules looked at Jason in surprise.

One of the twelve Olympian gods, her ancestral temples still exist in many places across Greece. Hercules naturally knew who she was.

Just as Jason was about to briefly explain the situation to Hercules, he heard a burst of hurried footsteps.

Chiron, the Centaur Sage, who sensed Jason's presence, rushed here.

So when Jason saw Chiron, he immediately shook off Hercules and trotted towards Chiron.

After stopping in front of Chiron, Jason's mood was obviously a little excited: "Teacher Chiron..."

"Are you okay... I'm glad you're okay." Chiron squatted down, touched Jason's head, patted Jason's body with his hand, and said with concern.

Although Jason has spent less time with Chiron... to be precise, after traveling to this world, the time he has spent with Chiron is not as long as Hecate.

But when it comes to trust, Jason obviously trusts Chiron more.

Because Jason knew that Chiron was always thinking about him and was always considering him!

Although Hercules had just received lessons from Chiron, Chiron saw that Jason was unwilling to go, so he asked Hercules to go back with him.

Because of Jason, Hercules, who was once secretly called a monster, established some good relationships with many of Chiron's students.

But it is obvious that among Chiron's many disciples, he has the best relationship with Jason!

Whether this is good or bad...it's hard to say.

Because among them, there is also a terrifying god involved!

In fact, a long time ago, Jason was spotted by a goddess... or to be more precise, he was spotted by her.

It was also because of her that Jason's parents were spared from disaster, and he was able to travel safely to Chiron and become his apprentice.

And that goddess happened to be related to Hercules.

And it will bring nightmares to Hercules for a long time!

That was Hera, the queen of gods and goddesses who was high above all the gods in Olympus, and the only legitimate wife of the king of gods Zeus among his many women!

In fact, in all Greek myths, behind every hero there is almost the shadow of a god.

Jason, a mortal who was not even a demigod, was able to gather so many heroes in the future to build the Argo and seize the Golden Fleece.

A big part of the reason is that Jason is the child of Queen Hera!

It's just that now, Jason has defected to Hecate halfway.

And Hera is not aware of this now... In order to avoid appearing to be involved, the king of gods Zeus chose to hide the matter of Persephone from Hera.

Although it was unnecessary, the main reason was that Zeus was angry recently because Hera caught him having sex with a river god some time ago.

Then, after the three of them returned to the cave of Pyriwen, Jason did not hide anything from them and told them everything that had happened recently.

When Hercules learned that Jason had done such a great thing and met so many gods, his mouth was so wide open that he could fit big wild fruits in it.

"Brother Jason, you actually accomplished such a great feat! You are truly amazing!"

"...It doesn't matter if other people say this to me, but Brother Hercules, you'd better keep quiet!" Jason rolled his eyes at Hercules.

"But... haven't you completely offended the goddess Demeter by doing this?" Chiron frowned and said to Jason worriedly, "Jason, although you are now loved by all the gods, if Demeter is really very angry and insists on pursuing the matter..."

They may not necessarily choose to protect you!

There was no need for Chiron to say this explicitly, Jason understood it in his heart.

"Don't worry, Mr. Chiron... I know what's going on!"

Therefore, Jason had naturally thought of a countermeasure a long time ago!

At least now, Jason felt that there were three goddesses who would not give up on him easily.

Persephone, the queen of the underworld, Hecate, the teacher, and Athena, the goddess of wisdom!

With them around, even if Demeter really blames him, he can resist a little, and then Jason will have much more room to maneuver.

In fact, it is not a very impressive operation, because this "story" itself exists in Jason's mind.

Even though Persephone became the Queen of the Underworld, it was not completely impossible for her to return to heaven and meet Demeter.

The biggest reason why Demeter was reluctant to let Persephone marry Hades was actually because she was obsessed with her daughters.

She was just afraid that she would never be able to meet Persephone again!

"Really... As long as you know the answer."

Chiron felt relieved when he saw that Jason did not seem to be lying.

"Then Jason, what's the matter with you coming to see me this time?"

Who was Chiron? He was the wise centaur, the mentor of all Greek heroes. It was easy for him to see that Jason was hesitating and had something to say to him.

"...Nothing can be hidden from you, Teacher Chiron." Jason smiled at Chiron and glanced at Hercules beside him.

"You go out first, Hercules."

Hercules opened his mouth, looked at Jason and Chiron, hesitated for a moment, and then left.

"Teacher, you know I've always been reluctant to be a hero, right?"

"Yeah." Chiron nodded.

"I don't actually have aversion to heroes, but if I were asked to be a hero... I actually don't want to!" Jason said seriously, and it was the first time he expressed his thoughts.

"Because heroes have so much to bear.

I just want to live for myself and live my life in peace! ...I'm sorry, teacher, I must have disappointed you."

"No, not at all." Chiron smiled and patted Jason's head. "Everyone has their own ideas and ambitions. As a teacher, I will only pass on what I can teach you. As for the path to follow, it is naturally up to you to find your own way."

"Thank you, teacher... To put my thoughts simply, it can be summed up in one sentence... I want to live."

Jason said softly, "I just want to live, live in peace, and not be influenced by anyone! ...That's all.

I originally thought that as long as I learned magic from Teacher Hecate, became stronger, and then took a different path from the future I saw, I would be able to do it.

But after this trip and meeting those gods, I understand.

impossible!

Because in this world, there are those who are high and mighty!

Therefore, Master, I have decided that in order to survive, I must... become immortal!"

Chapter 28: Three roads, one of which is to kill God!

Jason, he's serious!

Chiron met Jason's gaze and sensed Jason's determination.

"This... is really unexpected."

Chiron couldn't help but smile softly on his handsome face, and said to Jason, "About half a year ago, you were the most troublesome of all my students, and you were also the least motivated.

I never thought that half a year later, you would choose a path that is the most dangerous even among all your fellow disciples!"

"There's nothing I can do... I just want to live." Jason, with blond hair and blue eyes, who has grown a lot compared to half a year ago, also showed a dazzling smile.
