God's Grace

Loneliness is a terrible thing.

Except for the visits from her sisters and Hades, who became friends by chance, Medusa repeated her monotonous and boring life almost every day, suffering the pain of loneliness alone.

Then one day, the great Pluto King told her that the reason why he wanted to be friends with her was not to pity her tragic experience, but to appreciate her knowing that life should be meaningful after hearing her past experiences.

Because she has worked so hard to pursue her inner vision, unswervingly pursued the meaning of life she believed in, and believed in her love and dreams, so she is different from most gods or people.

Yes, the meaning of her life used to be Athena, but in Athena's eyes, she was actually just a humble chess piece that could be trampled on at will.

There are too many gods and people in the world who believe in Athena, but none of them will regard Athena as the most important meaning of life and have such strong feelings in their hearts like she once did.

But the adoration, admiration, and love she once had were so insignificant to Athena, and she was so cheap and ridiculous in front of Athena's disdain.

However, Pluto said that the most important thing about the meaning of life is meaning, not what the meaning is or why it is meaningful. Previous failures or mistakes should be the bumps and thorns on the road of growth, and should not be a reason for lamenting and Excuse.

Hades had misread her if she had been immersing herself in mourning and would only keep cursing her fate in despair.

Hades' words made Medusa gradually wake up, and she gradually thought of one thing clearly in the boring passage of time.

The self who once regarded Athena as a dream and loved Athena silently was not wrong.Even Athena, who did all this to her, was not wrong. Athena just refused to accept and despised her love, and then trampled on her life with great strength and power for the sake of her status as the main god.

But if she continues to lament the injustice of fate to her in such a decadent way, and she hates Athena who ignores her feelings, then it is she who continues to degrade herself.

After figuring it out, Medusa completely let go of those strong feelings she used to have. It is letting go, but it does not deny her previous feelings. Those persistence in pursuing the meaning of life, the firmness and passion in chasing dreams, come from the depths of her heart. There is nothing wrong with love, it's just that she chose the wrong object.

Medusa abandoned despair, sadness, and pain, and she didn't even hate Athena anymore. For her, Athena is just an enemy from now on, and she will no longer have any emotions for Athena other than hatred .

She began to practice all kinds of protoss spells and martial arts diligently, cultivate her spiritual power and soul power, and try her best to improve her strength.

Since Athena wants her to become strong and let her grow into the ideal fruit in the mortal world, then let her and Athena have a gamble!Let's see if she can cultivate enough strength to resist her manipulation before Athena reaps her fruit!

As a child of the ancient sea god, she has received high-quality protoss education since she was a child, and later read a lot of training classics in the Temple of Wisdom. Medusa has laid a very solid foundation for various protoss spells and protoss martial arts. It is an advancement to a higher level.

It's just that she can't absorb the power of faith, and her divine power level has been stagnant at the goddess level. She can learn advanced elemental spells and protoss martial arts through mental simulation, but she cannot perform them due to lack of divine power.

The other method is to practice spiritual power and soul power.

The limit of the spiritual power of the gods depends on the strength of the soul, and the strength of the soul depends on the innate godhead, because the godhead is determined innately. After the gods reach normal adulthood, the soul will develop to the limit on its own. Soul power and spiritual power Naturally, it will also reach its peak, so few protoss will go to practice the soul.

The same is true for Medusa, who didn't know that she was a candidate for the main god before, because basically no protoss would specialize in cultivating the soul, so the methods that can be found to cultivate the soul are pitifully few, and her soul is also subject to a powerful curse. It seems that the progress is so slow.

When Medusa endured the pain of tempering her soul every day, it was like being stabbed in the brain by thousands of needles. What gave Medusa some confidence was that although the progress was slow, it was at least effective. Powerful, she possesses the divine personality of an alternate main god, and she is really different from ordinary gods. The power of gods and souls that ordinary gods will never increase after adulthood, she will improve through cultivation.

This is a race against time. What makes Medusa a little anxious is that the speed of spiritual cultivation is not fast, but her petrification ability is getting stronger and stronger.

From the beginning when she looked into people's eyes, human beings would be gradually petrified from the soles of their feet, and gradually, as soon as she looked into other people's eyes, human beings would be instantly petrified.

Even the sisters had to cover their eyes when they came to visit her. Once an ordinary protoss accidentally came to the island where she was, and was almost petrified by her after seeing her. Medusa’s petrification ability is enough to petrify the gods. Just don't know if her petrification will kill the Protoss outright.

More than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye. Although Medusa has practiced very hard every day for these years, her soul has made great progress compared to before, and her mental power has become stronger, allowing her to perform some complex advanced spiritual magic.

But she still lost to Athena again.

It is said that the mortal king angered Poseidon, the sea god king released the sea monster Setus to destroy the human city, and Athena was ordered by Zeus to come to the mortal world and guide the demigod Perseus, the son of Zeus, to defeat the sea monster.

In fact, this is just another game between Zeus and Poseidon to compete for the belief of mortals on the earth. It was Athena who suggested to Zeus that she would instruct Perseus to use Medusa's head to petrify Sea monsters, the gods of God's Domain have always heard about Medusa's various "evil deeds" on earth and humans, and they have no objection to Athena's suggestions.

Athena had already prepared for this day. She had been preaching to humans the legend that Medusa was a mortal demon through her priests on Earth. Charged with killing God.

Athena incarnated as a fisherman and lent Perseus a pair of Hermes' flying shoes, a stretchable cowhide bag, the invisibility cap used by Hades in the battle of the giants, and her own sword and sword. Aegis, and then directed Perseus to find the Grail Witches and ask them how to defeat Medusa.

Perseus robbed the eyes shared by the three witches of Graie, and threatened them to tell the way to defeat Medusa. Medusa's head, and immediately put her head in a cowhide bag.

In fact, this is what Athena asked the Grail witches to say to Perseus. How can the flesh of the gods be hurt by mortal weapons?Only the Excalibur lent by Athena to Perseus can cut off Medusa's head, and the cowhide bag Athena gave Perseus is a special magic weapon that can cut off Medusa and herself. The connection with the divine body made it impossible for her to control the beheaded divine body through mental power.

Sisina and Yurielle were stopped by the soldiers of God's Domain on their way to rescue Medusa. Perseus came to the island where Medusa was exiled and fought Medusa in the palace.The shield of Athena can defend against spiritual magic. Perseus fought Medusa with the reflection of the shield. The flying shoes and the invisibility cap gave the powerful demigod the help of a god. Although Medusa tried her best to resist, she was eventually defeated. Perseus beheaded.

After Perseus petrified the sea monster Thetis with Medusa's head, he dedicated Medusa's head to Athena, and Athena sealed Medusa's head into her shield. In the center of the shield, there is a statue with a human head and snake hair.

The myths and legends of heroes are just a farce directed by the gods. Under the layout of Athena, the son of Zeus and the gods left a good name in the mortal world, and Athena took the opportunity to obtain the soul of Medusa.
