He seems to have even gone on the Golden Fleece Journey with you."
Hermes, who was lying on the lawn with his head in his hands and his legs crossed, coughed twice and then spoke to Jason as if he suddenly remembered something.
"Well, what's wrong?" Although Jason knew that Hermes was trying to change the subject, he still continued the conversation.
"As expected... Then you should hurry to Mount Kiseron. The spells I left behind can only help him temporarily, not forever.
If you were any later, he would have been shot into a hedgehog by Artemis!"
Hermes couldn't help but smile wickedly when he said this.
"Goddess Artemis?"
Jason was stunned for a moment, blinked at Hermes, and asked in confusion: "What happened? Is there any misunderstanding?
I remember that Brother Actaeon has always respected you very much."
"It's not a question of respect or disrespect... Should we say he was lucky or unlucky? Anyway, he just happened to encounter it."
Hermes said to Jason with a wicked smile, "He happened to see Artemis bathing with a group of nymphs in the forest.
If I hadn't happened to pass by there when I came to find you, and found him familiar so I removed the mark on him and made him hide, he might have already... "
As Hermes spoke, Jason's brows gradually furrowed.
He knew about this and was in trouble.
Because Artemis, the moon goddess, was a virgin goddess, and Jason also knew Artemis's temper.
This incident is actually a very famous story in ancient Greek mythology.
Actaeon was a famous hunter in Greek mythology and was indeed a student of Chiron.
One day when he was hunting in Mount Kiseron, he heard the sound of women playing in the woods, and subconsciously followed the sound.
Instead, he saw Artemis showering with the same group of woodland nymphs.
The dazed Actaeon actually couldn't see the holy body of Artemis, because when the nymphs saw him appear, they panicked and, as servants of the moon goddess, they also hurriedly gathered together to block the goddess' body.
At the end of the story, Artemis scooped up a handful of water from the lake and sprayed it on the head and face of the young man opposite, cursing him.
Finally, after escaping, Actaeon grew a pair of horns on his head, his neck became long and thin, and his ears became long and pointed.
His arms turned into thighs, his hands into hooves, and spotted fur grew on his body, turning him into a wild deer.
He then died at the hands of his hunting dogs and the arrows of his friends who were searching for him.
But this time Actaeon was not cursed by Artemis, because the moment he walked to the forest pool and was about to drink water, he noticed someone and that something was wrong, so he turned and ran away.
It was not like the story said, where he just stared blankly at everything in front of him and only woke up after being cursed by Artemis.
He ran so fast that Artemis and the others were unable to react for a moment.
At the same time, he took a quick glance and naturally did not see anything he should not have seen.
But even so, he was hunted by Artemis.
"are you going?"
Hermes asked Jason with a smile.
Jason looked at him and thought about it.
"I think this is a bit of a coincidence... There's no reason why Senior Brother Actaeon could survive the hands of an angry Goddess Artemis.
Master Hermes, you were actually here from the beginning, right?"
Hermes was stunned.
There is actually a very famous story in the myth about Artemis.
That is Artemis's 'eyesight'.
A hero was also involved, Orion, the son of Poseidon, the god of the sea.
Apollo, the god of light, disliked Orion and felt that he could not be with Artemis, so he used a trick to let Artemis kill Orion with a single shot from a long distance.
Although Jason did not remember the myth, he knew that he was often watched by Artemis from a distance.
After all, when he was with Atalanta, he had gained a lot of moonstones...
"You really can't hide anything, Jason."
Hermes was speechless, but he was not angry when Jason exposed him. He smiled and said, "But it was not me who instigated that guy to peek. I just happened to pass by and was on my way to find you.
By the time I saw him by chance and felt something was wrong and was about to warn him, it was too late.
But he ran really fast, and Artemis caught me from behind and shot me with several arrows."
At this point, Hermes showed a bit of helplessness on his face.
He really felt depressed about this matter.
He was almost shot through by the enraged Artemis at that time, because as soon as Artemis saw him, she thought he was a spy.
After Hermes tried his best to persuade her, and even swore on the River Styx, Artemis finally believed him half-heartedly and let him go.
However, that is conditional!
"So the reason my brother and you are able to come to me safely is because you betrayed me again, right, Master Hermes?"
Jason narrowed his eyes and said to Hermes, "If I am right, you immediately told Artemis that you were looking for me.
And promised her that he would take me there... Is that right, Master Hermes?"
When Jason said this, a smile appeared on his face.
A smile that made Hermes feel a little creepy.
"Hey, kid, you're getting smarter and less fun."
Hermes sighed. He didn't refute, and he couldn't refute.
That is indeed what happened.
He was able to come here safely because he agreed to Artemis' condition of taking Jason with him.
It is also because of this that Actaeon has not been dealt with by Artemis.
Now that's a hostage!
"I can go see the goddess Artemis, but before that, Lord Hermes, I need you, the great one, to promise me something."
Although Jason was angry, he secretly made up his mind that he would beat Hermes up sooner or later!
But now, after some calm thinking, Jason decided to go.
Helping his senior brother was one thing, but Jason also knew that if the goddess Artemis knew of her invitation, Jason would not accept it.
He will definitely throw a tantrum!
If Athena is the most rational of the Olympian goddesses, then Artemis is undoubtedly the most willful of the Olympian goddesses.
To deal with her, I can only give in...
"Tell me what's the matter."
Hermes readily answered Jason, apparently anticipating his response. "Are you planning on having me go to the Father and help him with matters concerning the prophet Prometheus?"
Jason was stunned when he heard this.
"Surprised, how could I know that? You could tell. I'm not some idiot like Artemis and the others."
Hermes continued, "Many of us actually know that you swore to Prometheus that you would save him.
I have also specifically looked into this matter and know that the key lies with your Centaur teacher Chiron.
This time you helped Hercules complete the trial again, and everyone was watching.
I guess you are planning to take over Hercules' hand and rescue Prometheus, right?"
Jason thought for a moment.
"You...helped me think of a solution?"
"You have Athena to help you, so why do you need me? I just asked out of curiosity.
I was planning to use this to blackmail you into cooking for me for a while."
After hearing this, Jason still didn't understand what was going on.
He looked at Hermes, smiled, and said, "Thank you, Hermes."
"Thank you, I didn't do anything."
In response to Hermes's answer, Jason did not say anything else.
He stood up and sat on the golden-horned deer, and then followed the golden-horned deer to Mount Kiseron.
Hermes looked at Jason's back as he left on the golden-horned deer, then lay on the lawn and reached out to flick the green feather hat on his head.
"You little brat...
Become a god as soon as possible. It would be such a pity if you can’t become a god.
After all, after all these years, I finally made a friend."
Hermes' muttering was carried away by the breeze.
Jason, who was sitting on the golden-horned deer and walking away, suddenly smiled, as if he had heard what Hermes said.
"Ah."
Even responded.
Demeter, the goddess of agriculture, gave Jason the power to listen to the voices of all things...
And soon after, not even a day had passed.
The golden-horned deer took Jason to Mount Kyseron when the moonlight fell.
As Artemis's messenger, the golden-horned deer naturally knew Artemis's location.
So he took Jason along the way to the sacred grove of Artemis.
And outside the sacred forest, Jason met his senior brother Actaeon.
He was stripped of all his clothes, his mouth was covered, and he was tied to a big tree.
