[You and Yurielle reached a consensus in just a few words.]

[She starts looking for her sister, and you are responsible for continuing to study this huge machine that fell from the sky.]

For some reason, Ian always felt that the situation before him was different from that time when Poseidon was there.

But apart from the differences he found after observation, he couldn't explain where this feeling came from for a while.

no way.

Since there are no conditions that can explain everything now, let's conduct a more detailed investigation.

With this thought in mind——

Ian once again observed the giant machine in front of him.

But this time, he no longer had the intention to attack like before.

Of course, Chrysaor, the golden sword used for self-defense, was still held tightly in his hand.

After all, no matter what——

This is the only weapon that can be used at this moment.

【You begin to observe this giant machine.】

【Based on your experience of controlling Athena, you realize that the personalities of these mechas have gender differences.】

[Like Poseidon, it is a male mecha. 】

[And Athena is a female mecha. ]

[Of course, knowing this doesn’t change anything. ]

[After all, whether it is Poseidon or Athena, if they really want to destroy Oceanus, they have enough power. ]

[But you always feel that the experience of controlling Athena in her body can play a role. ]

Strange to say.

When Ian really restrained his intention to attack, he felt that the position used to defend against the golden sword Chrysaor also disappeared.

This allowed him to observe the lightning traces up close.

Soon, the man realized that something was wrong.

Although at first glance these scars look like the remains of being severely injured by lightning, as someone who has actually been exposed to Poseidon's attacks, Ian discovered that there is a clear difference between them and real lightning.

Rather than saying that the damage was caused by lightning, it would be more accurate to say that the damage was "disguised" to look like lightning.

In essence, it may be extremely similar to the mechanism of Poseidon's attack, but the final means of expression are slightly different.

"..."

Ian climbed further toward the heart of the massive machine.

Soon, he came to the position where he had just launched the attack.

only--

The moment he touched here, he suddenly felt his heart tremble violently.

wrong.

It's not the beating heart.

But he was caught by something.

The man looked up and suddenly understood what Medusa had said about the scene illuminated by light.

The core of the machine that was defending itself before was now emitting light, pointing at Ian in front of it.

That's a top-down scan.

Then, a voice rang out.

But this time, it was no longer a cold mechanical voice, but a real mature female voice.

"Similar body components detected, possibly confirmed to be members of the fleet."

"Please place your detection input."

After saying this, He was worried that Ian didn't understand, so He added another sentence.

"Specifically, certain items on your person."

"..."

Ian looked at the golden sword Chrysaor in his hand.

After a moment's hesitation, he pointed at it.

"Is it this one?"

The huge machine did not respond to Ian, but opened a small hole in front of him.

It was as if it was reminding the man to put the golden sword Chrysaor in.

Ian did it without hesitation.

He knew that this was the only choice he had.

"Identifying the components - confirmed to be an interceptor starfighter, codenamed Athena."

"Personality program is starting up, 96.54% complete... 100% complete, loading complete."

"Long time no see, my compatriots."

The figure of a mature woman slowly appeared on the huge machine.

"I am Demeter."

"One of the twelve surviving warships."

475. Absolute Lover Trust of the Three Sisters/Recognition from Demeter (4k)

[You never expected things to turn out like this.]

[The huge machine that fell from the sky unexpectedly took on a figure that looked like a woman. ]

【Demeter.】

【This is the name He used to refer to Himself.】

[You subconsciously become alert.]

Almost at the same time, when Ian saw Demeter appear, he immediately wanted to pull out the golden sword Chrysaor and take it back into his own hands.

But Demeter seemed to realize this and quickly reached out to stop him.

There was a bit more tenderness like water in those exquisite purple eyes.

"My countrymen."

"You seem to be disgusted by my appearance - am I too late?"

"..."

Ian looked directly at the woman in front of him.

Unlike Poseidon's shocking mecha giant form, Demeter, who appeared before him in perfect human form at this moment, was obviously much more pleasing to the eye.

She has a golden pigtailed hair and a figure that is totally incomparable to the three Gorgon sisters, and to match it, she has an extremely peaceful, motherly tone.

you can say it this way--

If he hadn't witnessed the entire process of her appearance, Ian felt that he might have regarded her as a lucky village girl who had managed to survive the wrath of Poseidon.

But that certainly can’t be the case now.

Ian looked at Demeter and didn't believe the words she uttered at all.

The lesson Poseidon left behind was terrible enough, and the man didn't want to repeat the same mistake!

"What's so misleading about this?!"

Ian stared at her.

"Don't try to deceive me again, Demeter!"

"..."

Facing Ian's anger, Demeter did not show any sign of being angry. Instead, she began to respond to his gaze in an apologetic tone.

"I'm sorry, I'm really too late. Your memory seems to have been distorted to a great extent."

"There is no such thing."

"Yes." Demeter looked at the man in front of her. "Your name is Pegasus, right? Athena's helper."

"It seems that our decision was a little hasty."

"..."

Ian looked at Demeter in front of him and didn't sense any lie from her at all.

In contrast, her extremely serious and calm tone seemed to prove that what she said at the moment was the truth.

But before Ian could figure out what was going on, Demeter spoke again:

"It seems that I can't make you accept these things for a while."

"In that case——"

The woman with a good figure made room to the side.

"Just take this verified key back with you for now."

"Then I can use the function of maintaining my human form in other appropriate places."

"..."

[Demeter's words shocked you once again. ]

[You can sense that she and Poseidon care about completely different things.]

[In her logic, it seems that she has no hostility towards you. ]

【but--】

[You did not believe what He said.]

[After all, the harm Poseidon has done to you, the three sisters, and even the Oceanus Sea is too far-reaching.]

[But anyway, if I can make her disappear, I might as well give it a try. ]

"I understand."

"According to" Demeter's request, Ian drew out the golden sword Chrysaor.

"I hope you can remember all this when we meet next time."

After Demeter left behind words that sounded like a prayer, she disappeared from the man's sight.

[You temporarily left the sea where Demeter fell. ]

You pray that nothing unexpected happens.

[But as Demeter herself promised, she would focus all her faculties on thinking.]

[Until you left that sea, you never saw Him transform into a giant like Poseidon.]

[You can't help but wonder if you're thinking too much. ]

[You return to the mansion.]

[It is quite a coincidence that Euryale, who went out to look for Stheno and Medusa, also happened to return here with them. ]

[Obviously, they were planning to put down what they had collected first, and then rush to Demeter as quickly as possible.]

[Without further hesitation, you immediately shared this experience with them.]

Inside the mansion, Ian and the three sisters sat around the table again.

It’s just that the expressions of the four people at this moment seem a little serious.
