As the moonlight entered his body, Ye closed his eyes slightly to feel it, and after a few seconds he understood the protective effect.

Wow! I opened it again!

Ye thought to himself, his heart trembling.

If Apollo's radiance is a light that brings hope and miracles.

It was Apollo who, after witnessing the plight of the night, bestowed upon him the most suitable light, capable of turning the tide of the battle.

Therefore, the light of Artemis is the light that brings life.

The goddess of the hunt is also the goddess closest to nature, showing love and hunting indiscriminately to all prey.

She is like nature, sometimes cruel and harsh, sometimes gentle and radiant with maternal glow.

The moonlight bestowed new life upon the night!

From then on, wherever the moon shines at night, the night gains immortality.

Even if someone dies in battle, as long as it takes no more than a day before their soul goes to the underworld and their body is bathed in moonlight, they can be resurrected.

resurrection--!!!

The blessings bestowed by the power of the moon were truly terrifying; the immense surprise left Ye Du completely stunned. Resurrection?

grass--!

Artemis is so generous?!

You two siblings are both incredibly wealthy, the kind of wealthy that's inhumane.

These two deities really do give out benefits!

Now, could he also imitate Kamen Rider from another world—the Son of the Sun—and shout, "As long as I am bathed in moonlight, I am an immortal warrior, the Son of the Moon!"?

Ye, who had initially felt somewhat apologetic for having enjoyed so many benefits from Apollo but then turning to serve Artemis, was now in a similar situation.

At that moment, my resolve to live off Artemis's kindness was solidified...

Lord Apollo?! I'm sorry, please don't contact me again. I'm afraid Lady Artemis will misunderstand; we're really not close!

Whoops, just kidding.

Given the relationship between Apollo and Artemis, it wouldn't be much different if he became Artemis's kin or Apollo's kin. If Artemis were to demand—

Given that gentleman's personality, he might even offer himself up.

Because he understood this, Ye swore allegiance without the slightest hesitation or ambiguity.

However, besides the powerful revival ability of the moonlight, Ye Yinyin could vaguely sense that this blessing also contained a hidden power, full of destructive power, waiting for him to develop it.

Since the power of revival symbolizes Artemis's gentle and compassionate side as the goddess of nature, then the other side of moonlight is clearly—destructive!

A hunt that resembled a natural disaster!

After bestowing the blessing, Artemis said, "This is the reward you deserve for passing my trial."

I know you still have a great task to complete.

I won't take you back with me. Come visit my temple sometime.

I will introduce you to my other family members.

but--

These people didn't pass the trial, so only you can go to Troy.

Clearly, Artemis made no attempt to conceal it; she already knew about Night's destination, which also indirectly proves that she had been keeping an eye on Night's presence these past few days.

Night has no meaning in this regard.

To be honest, he didn't want to travel with others in the first place.

In particular, the death of Kress made Ye lament the fragility of life and feel a little guilty. In the end, it was because of him that he had been involved.

If these people hadn't accompanied him to Troy, he wouldn't have encountered both the storm and the Sirens' attack.

Chapter Thirty-Three: Unable to Lie in Honesty—A Piece Missing in Perfection

In the end, all the ordinary sailors were sent away.

Artemis secretly protected them, using her divine power to guide their ships back to the coast of Misia without ever stopping.

Even as she sent away these filthy men, the Moon Goddess harbored her own selfish desires.

These men's previous disgraceful behavior, even when their comrades died, their first thought was to celebrate glory and victory, rather than to mourn their fallen comrades.

Artemis saw all of this.

She believes that spending too much time with these jerks at night will pollute the pure colors of one's soul.

Even if it weren't for the great cause that Ye actively pursued.

She didn't even want him to go to the Trojan War.

After all, few of the heroes from the Greek side were to Artemis's liking.

Some coveted her beauty, some were disrespectful to God... in short, none of them were good people.

Artemis asked Night to accompany her on a walk around the island, and afterwards she would find a way for Night to leave the island and travel safely to Troy.

With the goddess's endorsement, Ye instantly calmed down.

She even imagined how the sailors would spread the word about what they had seen that day when they returned, so that her identity as a follower of the Moon Goddess would be known throughout Misia and then to the battlefield of Troy.

His value will be even higher then... so he won't be neglected and excluded when he goes to Agamemnon.

At the same time, his status as a member of Artemis's retinue would not increase Agamemnon's wariness of him; in fact, Agamemnon might even try to please him instead.

After all, Agamemnon's daughter is still serving Artemis as a handmaid and witch.

This old man had even sacrificed his own daughter to appease the moon goddess's anger and ensure his smooth journey to Troy, which had already enraged his wife.

This foreshadowed Agamemnon's later betrayal and assassination by his wife after returning to Greece from Troy.

From this perspective, Ye not only doesn't need to rush to Troy now, but even needs to slow down and wait for the news to spread in the outside world.

To be able to accompany a beautiful goddess on a walk or outing in nature is a source of immense joy.

As Artemis descended from the deer and entered the island, Night followed closely behind her. They saw that the island was not desolate but rather a beautiful garden.

This garden left a deep impression on me; it was exactly as the Sirens had imagined it to be. It seems the Sirens usually lived here.

Upon seeing the beautiful scenery, Artemis immediately forgot about the night and couldn't resist going into the garden, bending down to pluck a beautiful flower, and gently smelling it.

A naive smile appeared on her face, and she seemed quite satisfied with the place.

Night saw all of this. At this moment, Artemis was neither as majestic, cold, and aloof as she had been when facing the sailors, nor as gentle as she had been in front of Night, yet so holy that she seemed inhuman.

She's more like a little girl revealing her true nature than a goddess.

This is a holy god who forever loves freedom and the wind, and is a god of pure and genuine nature.

Night couldn't help but think of the story of Hippolytus.

The young, handsome prince, who was solely devoted to the moon goddess, made his first appearance by presenting wildflowers to the only goddess in his heart.

He loved Artemis, perhaps not only because of her beauty.

It is also because Artemis represents the eternal holiness and innocence that almost perfectly captures the most precious and innocent aspects of girls' teenage years.

It's like the white moonlight that everyone has had in their heart.

This beauty is something everyone should cherish. Even Zeus doted on his daughter Artemis, granting her almost every wish and bestowing upon her the best of everything.

Why was Hippolytus so infatuated with Artemis when there were so many beautiful goddesses in Greece, including Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty who was said to be the most beautiful among the gods?

Perhaps it was because they saw a beauty that ordinary people could not see, a beauty that Artemis did not easily reveal.

Only a few mortals like him noticed this holy goddess that only he could perceive.

Artemis picked out her favorite flowers, and gradually a bouquet appeared in her hand.

It's likely that, aside from the night, no mortal could imagine that the goddess who preferred hunting to women's makeup, besides her dashing figure when hunting wild beasts, also had such a love for beauty and the beauty of nature.

Night admired the beautiful scenery—standing aside, she did not inappropriately approach and disturb this beautiful and holy goddess.

Anyone who desecrates this harmonious scene seems to be guilty.

However, Ye always felt that Artemis was missing something... The scene before her was beautiful, but there was a subtle sense of incompleteness.

what is it?

At this moment, perhaps the night's visibility was too obvious.

Artemis finally realized that she was not traveling alone; her retinue was still left standing by.

A blush of embarrassment immediately spread across the Moon Goddess's cheeks, and she turned her head as gently as possible to express her apology.

"I'm sorry, as the supreme god, I needed you to accompany me on this journey, but I've left you all alone."

Artemis originally intended to chat with Ye and strengthen her bond with her new family, but after discovering the unexpectedly beautiful scenery, she impulsively started doing her own thing.

Even the willful Artemis felt that what she had done was somewhat unfair.

Night shook her head, indicating that this was fine.

To witness such a beautiful goddess dancing gracefully among the flowers, a scene as picturesque as a painting, is a privilege that most people could only dream of.

"My goddess, please do as you please and don't worry about me."

Since Ye had said so, the straightforward Moon Goddess readily accepted it and did not show any shyness because of Ye's praise.

Or rather—it's only natural to be attracted to her looks.

Even as a chaste virgin goddess, she would not be demanding of her kin, and would not even allow genuine praise or appreciation.

Even she cares about her appearance...

Receiving recognition will also bring feelings of goodwill and joy.

As a goddess, all she needs to do is show off generously! Of course, that's all; she must avoid all impure interactions with the opposite sex.

The moon goddess, who readily accepted the praise, suddenly noticed a different look in the night's eyes and a thoughtful expression.

It seemed as if they had discovered something, and were hiding something in their hearts.

The curious moon goddess inquired about the reason...
