Type Moon Greece, I Really Don’t Want To Be a Hero!

Looking at the old woman, Jason fell silent.

Break this boulder? ...Well, a very simple and rude answer, as long as you are not afraid of being put on by those gods in the back.

Help him push the boulder to the top of the mountain? …The gods punished him by making him do it over and over again in this lifetime.

For the gods see no more severe punishment than to perform such futile and hopeless labour.

And the old woman... In fact, she is the goddess who came down from Mount Olympus and searched for Jason for many days. In the end, it was because Amphitrite came to land that she learned of Jason's whereabouts.

The mother of the queen Hera and Zeus and others, the second generation queen Rhea.

At the same time, it was precisely because she had been looking for Jason on the earth for many days that she met this man named Sisyphus by chance and knew about him.

And after knowing it, Rhea was ready to take care of it, because she felt that such a punishment was a bit too heavy for this human being.

Of course, the main reason is that Rhea learned the truth about this man being so severely punished... When Zeus kidnapped Aegina, the daughter of the river god Aesops, it was this A man came across by chance.

Then he went to tell the river god Isopus, so that the river god Isopus could quietly leave his daughter Aegina.

And the man Sisyphus offended Zeus precisely because of this, which led to the current ending.

Forget about other things, but this kind of thing...

At the same time, when Rhea had the idea of ​​taking care of this matter, she thought of Jason again.

When he thought of Hestia, Athena, and Hermes, to be precise, he was the one who was watched by so many gods in Olympus.

And I also heard a lot about Jason, knowing that he is a child who often surprises the gods.

So Rhea naturally came up with the idea of ​​what she would do if it was that child... So there was this moment, such a scene.

Although Jason didn't understand the foreword and consequences, this was a test given by God, and Jason still understood it.

So at this moment, Jason looked at the boulder and the decadent man Sisyphus, and began to seriously think about the solution.

Chapter 95 Give meaning to meaningless things (4k)

So Jason, what are you going to...how do you handle this?

Rhea's curiosity did not last long.

Because on the next day, Jason had already started to act.

The next morning, when Sisyphus stood up, Jason got up and came to him.

Rhea was hiding in the dark. When she saw Jason coming in front of Sisyphus, she naturally subconsciously believed that Jason chose to help Sisyphus push the boulder that was given divine power by the gods.

In this regard, although Rhea didn't think there was anything wrong with this approach, but... there was always a feeling that expectations were a little bit in vain.

"Son, are you here to help me push this boulder?"

Sisyphus, who was full of beards and dressed in rags, naturally thought that Jason came because of this, so he said to him indifferently: "Give up, boy, so far I have asked countless passing heroes to help me, among them You have too many strong people, but no one can help me push it to the top of the mountain!"

"No, I'm not going to help you push the boulder up the mountain."

Then Jason's reply stunned Sisyphus and Rhea who was hiding in the dark.

"You're not going to help me...then why are you here?" Sisyphus frowned.

"I do come to help you, because a great god has sent an oracle, but I will not help you push the boulder to the top of the mountain, and I will not destroy the boulder."

Jason finished speaking with a smile, and under Sisyphus' puzzled gaze, he urged him to start today's work.

After that, Jason really just watched from the sidelines, watching Sisyphus push the boulder up the mountain from sunrise.

However, during this period of time, he was not idle, and while following Sisyphus up the mountain, he took out the sea-blue harp and continued to hone his piano skills.

Because Jason's piano sound is very beautiful, Sisyphus has no intention of driving Jason away.

Soon after, at sunset, the boulder suddenly fell from Sisyphus's hand, and when it fell, Jason, who had not moved all this time, suddenly started.

He took out his tin staff, and under Sisyphus' suspicious gaze, drew a horizontal line at the place where the boulder just stopped and then rolled down.

And after just drawing a horizontal line, Jason left.

Sisyphus and Jason left, and Rhea came here quietly, looked around the horizontal line, looked left and right, but didn't see anything tricky, so she could only suppress the doubts in her heart and leave.

Then on the third day, Jason continued to repeat such actions.

At sunset, the place where the boulder stopped turned into a horizontal line.

The fourth day, the fifth day...

A week later, when Jason drew the horizontal line at sunset, Rhea appeared beside Jason.

She looked at the uneven bars on the ground, and the initial doubts in her eyes were gone, because Rhea had already understood what Jason was doing.

"Son...is that your answer?"

Rhea, who turned into an old woman, said to Jason: "But as far as I know, you are fully capable of destroying this boulder, or helping him push the boulder to the top of the mountain...Can you tell me, my child, why Do you choose this method?"

"The reason is very simple." Jason bowed to Rhea, and then replied: "Because this is the punishment given to Sisyphus by the great gods, I have no right to disobey the gods without their consent. punish."

"But old lady, you asked me to help him again, so...I can only choose one method."

Smiling, Jason came to the horizontal bars painted on the ground, gestured to Rhea, and said, "Look, this horizontal line was drawn by me at first, and the next day, that horizontal bar Below the first horizontal line.

But on the third day, the fourth day, until today, every horizontal line will be higher than yesterday..."

Jason didn't finish his words.

"The punishment given to Sisyphus by the gods is to let his life be slowly exhausted in such a futile and hopeless labor... and you just use such lightly outlined strokes, It completely changed the meaning of the matter.”

Rhea sighed, looked up at the steep mountain, and said: "This mountain is too high, so Sisyphus's heart is full of despair, knowing that he will never go up, which corresponds to the futile and hopeless despair." work.

But you rekindled his fighting spirit with just one stroke...Although you didn't do anything, you actually broke the punishment given to him by the gods and completed the task I taught you. Right? "

Jason smiled lightly, without nodding or shaking his head in denial.

"But if it's just that, it's still impossible for him to push this boulder to the top of the mountain."

Rhea paused for a moment, then continued: "Although you have rekindled the fighting spirit in Sisyphus, if the time is too long, he will still be swallowed by despair in the end.

So you haven't fundamentally solved this matter. "

"That's right." Now, Jason nodded.

So under Rhea's slightly stunned, then curious gaze, Jason said with an unchanged smile: "If that's all, it's true that he still can't change his fate, after all, there is a limit to his personal power.

So my method is just to let him get rid of despair and make meaningless things meaningful.

As for the solution to this boulder... I hope you, old woman, can give me some time. "

"...Okay, I'll wait for you." Rhea, who turned into an old woman, smiled at Jason.

If at first, she felt a little disappointed, then now Rhea is full of expectations.

Rhea was very curious, what a surprise Jason could give her!

In this way, with the passage of time.

After another three days passed.

On the tenth day, things finally ushered in a turning point.

On the road that day, I happened to pass by a strong hunter with hounds, and was attracted by Jason's beautiful singing.

What a handsome and elegant man...he can't be a great god, Lord Apollo, the God of Light!

When the strong hunter saw Jason, he was instantly overwhelmed by Jason's charm.

So he ran to Jason and asked Jason respectfully if he was Apollo, the god of light.

This startled Jason, and hurriedly explained that it was not.

And told him his own name, it was Hercules!

Of course, these are small things.

Next, Jason began to invite the strong hunter to help Sisyphus push the boulder to the top of the mountain.

The hunter felt that this was impossible at first glance, and was about to refuse.

But after Jason promised that he would give him some money as a reward, the soldier naturally agreed immediately happily.

So later, under the puzzled eyes of Rhea and Sisyphus.

Jason followed the hunter to push the boulder to the high mountain, and when the boulder fell off at sunset, he regretted it.

At the position where the hunter helped push to reach, a horizontal line was drawn, and he was asked to leave his name on this horizontal line...

"Thank you for your cooperation. This is your golden soldier...Brother Hunter, you are really good. You can push it so high, much better than this one."

Handing the golden soldier to the hunter, when he praised him so much that he even made the other party feel a little embarrassed.

Seeing this opportunity, Jason told him that he should go back and spread the news so that more people would know how powerful he is.

Even for this reason, he specially gave him some gold coins, and also promised that as long as he brought one person back next time, he would give him a silver coin as a reward!

So, just the next day, the hunter brought ten strong hunters, and Jason generously gave him ten silver coins.

And also said that whoever is willing to help Sisyphus push the boulder, then he is willing to give him a gold coin!

So naturally, the hunters were ready to move, but at this time Jason made a new rule that only one person could help.

And Jason still left the hunter's name on the position he helped the man push that day.

And this second time, the hunter pushed to a much lower position than the previous hunter, so he was immediately met with merciless ridicule.

This made the second hunter instantly feel that the gold coins he got were no longer good.

Annoyed because of this matter, the fight was so red that it almost turned into a duel!

But at this moment, Jason played the beautiful piano sound at the right time, calming them down, and said that if you feel unwilling, it is very simple to prove yourself. Is it ok?

And so, on the third day, the hunters began to discuss who should follow Sisyphus to push the boulder. Because of what happened last night, everyone became eager to try.

Then who knew that when they were discussing, because the hunter returned home at first and followed Jason's order to publicize the result.

As a result, people who came to watch the fun or want to participate in it to get gold coins ran over like this.

In this way, as time goes by, the fourth day... the fifth day.

By the fifth day, there were already quite a few people gathered here.

At this time, Jason no longer needed to give gold coins, and let them compete to follow Sisyphus to push the boulder up the mountain.

Because at this time, the names of several people have been left on the mountain.

The person whose name is left behind, especially the one who is currently the tallest, grabs people and shows off his great achievements, how powerful he is.

And the people below him were full of unwillingness and disbelief, all of them held up their energy and wanted to surpass and come back!

In this way, it didn't take too long, even less than a week, before the matter spread completely.

More and more people come to watch the excitement, and at the same time, more and more people come to challenge this project, want to leave their name on the highest place, and look down on the world.

So just like that, Jason, who spent nearly half a month, looked at the lively crowd gathered here at night.

Playing the beautiful piano sound, turned around and disappeared into the night.

Just as he disappeared into the night, not long after he left, the old woman that Rhea turned into came to Jason.

After Jason saluted her with a smile, he said, "Old lady, I have completed the task you entrusted to me...Although no one should be able to push this boulder to the top of the mountain, one day, That person will show up."

Yes, it will definitely appear.

Even if he doesn't show up, Jason can inform Brother Hercules and the others to come and push the stone up.

Rhea looked at Jason who was smiling in front of her, looking at the fire in the distance, and couldn't help being silent for a while.

"Son, can you tell me what's going on?"

Then, Rhea couldn't hold back, and asked Jason in confusion.

Although she has been watching everything that happened, but... it can only be said that this gaffe developed a little too fast, so that she was a little confused!

But Rhea can still understand that Jason has completed his mission, because according to this trend, heroes who have the help of gods to complete impossible missions like Jason will eventually appear.

"What the hell did you...do?"

"Did I do anything?...Actually, I didn't do anything, because this is the result that will inevitably appear as the number of people increases."
