The Greek Fairy

Chapter 5: The Death of Medusa

River Styx

"Nymph (Water God), are you there?" Selini came to the bank of the Styx and threw a stone into the river.

A blue-haired girl emerged from the water, and when she saw Cellini, she jumped up and said, "Celini, why are you here!"

"I came to ask you for a heart of water, and you also know that I like to grow flowers." Catching the nymph who was flying over, Celini smiled dotingly.

"Wait, I'll get it for you right away." Ning Fu turned into a blue light and flew back into the water upon hearing this.

"En." Cellini smiled slightly upon seeing this.

While Selini was waiting for Nymph, the conversation of the elf playing by the river caught Selini's attention.

"Tell me, can that person succeed?"

"How do I know, but he is the son of Zeus, and he also got Athena's shield and Hades' helmet, so it should be successful."

"makes sense."

"Selini, I'll give you the heart of water." At this moment, Nymph went ashore with the heart of water.

"Thank you." Cellini asked after taking the Heart of Water. "Nymph, what do they mean by Athena's shield and Hades' helmet?"

"It's like this. A young man came to us two days ago. She said he was going to kill Medusa, so we gave him the sword of Zeus, the shield of Athena, and the helmet of Hades." Nymph said Breaking his fingers, he said, "If you count the days, it's almost time for him to arrive at Medusa's lair."

"Crack." The Heart of Water in Cellini's hand fell to the ground and shattered.

Ningfu ignored the heart of water that fell to the ground and shattered, but looked at Selini with concern and asked, "Selini, what's wrong with you?"

"Medusa." Cellini turned pale and flew away with a flutter of wings.

"Selini." Ningfu looked anxious, he didn't know what happened to Selini.

medusa lair

Perseus walked backwards into Medusa's lair. He carefully avoided obstacles and approached Medusa little by little.Just as he retreated to Medusa's side and chopped off Medusa's head with a sword, a green light flashed across, and the next moment bright red blood splashed across Perseus's face.

"Selini!" Medusa exclaimed in horror.

"Medusa, luckily you're fine." Cellini's entire back was covered in blood.

"Human." Medusa said bitterly.

"No, Medusa." Seeing this, Cellini quickly covered Medusa's eyes.

"Selini, what are you doing?" Medusa reached out and was about to break Selini's hand.

Cellini endured the pain and said, "Don't kill people casually anymore."

"But he hurt you."

"Medusa, you can speak now."

"I……"

Cellini begged: "Medusa, can you close your eyes?"

Medusa hesitated and nodded, "Okay."

Cellini looked at Perseus and said coldly: "Human warrior, why did you come to kill Medusa? What did he do wrong?"

"He killed so many people, he deserves to die." Perseus was taken aback by Cellini's question.

"You're talking nonsense. The reason why those people died was because they didn't know the sky and the earth. They deserve it. Medusa never took the initiative to kill anyone." Cellini frowned.

"She is a banshee, a source of disaster."

"Bullshit." Cellini said with a look of resentment: "Medusa was killed by Poseidon, it was Athena's injustice that led to the birth of the Gorgon, from beginning to end Medusa was just a victim, he was innocent of."

After pondering for a while, Perseus said, "My name is Perseus, and it is for... that I must get Medusa's head back."

"The Shield of Athena." Medusa murmured.

"Medusa." Cellini looked at Medusa worriedly.

"Is this the ending he gave me?"

"what are you saying?"

Medusa raised her head and turned her face to Selini, saying, "Selini, thank you."

"You are crying, Medusa."

"Selini, let him kill me."

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Medusa touched her cheek and said sadly: "I have been waiting, I have been waiting. I am waiting for Athena's forgiveness, waiting for him to forgive my sins and lift my curse. But I can't wait, I can't wait .”

"Medusa."

"Human warrior, I allow you to kill me." Medusa stood up. "But you have to promise me two things."

"You say." Perseus secretly clenched the Zeus sword in his hand.

"One, give all my corpses to Cellini, especially the head."

"it is good."

"Second, you must believe in Cellini for the rest of your life."

Perseus hesitated and nodded, "Okay."

"Selini, you go away."

"Medusa, don't."

"I don't want you to watch my death." Medusa closed her eyes and pushed Cellini out of the room. "I have lived for Athena all my life, and now Athena has arranged for my death, so I will die. This is my wish."

"Medusa." Cellini sighed, followed Medusa's strength to leave the stone chamber.

"Let's go."

"Farewell," Cellini whispered.

"En." Medusa smiled and nodded. "Thank you, Cellini."

After a while, Perseus came out with a bag.

Perseus handed some unknown beads to Celini, who was sitting on the ground with his knees hugged, and said, "This is what Medusa asked me to give to you."

Stretching out his hand to pick up something, Cellini looked at it and said, "What?"

"Her tears."

"Really." Cellini frowned.

Perseus hesitated for a while and asked, "Your injury?"

"It's all right."

"Medusa's body is inside, but I took the head away."

"kindness."

After Perseus left, Cellini sat on the ground for an unknown amount of time.until……

When Apollo saw Celini, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Selini, I finally found you."

"Apollo!" Cellini's eyes were swollen like peaches, and he couldn't see Apollo clearly.

"Why are you crying?" Apollo put his hands on Celini's eyes, healing Celini's red and swollen eyes. "It's okay, it's okay."

"You Greek gods are a good thing." Suddenly Celini pushed Apollo out.

"What's the matter?" Apollo was caught off guard and pushed down by Cellini and sat on the ground.

"What's wrong with Medusa, why did he end up like this."

"Medusa?" Apollo frowned and thought for a while before he remembered who Medusa was. "This is Medusa's home."

"What do you mean by that?"

Seeing that Celini was angry, Apollo hurriedly got up and said, "Celini, the matter of Medusa is completely caused by Athena, and has nothing to do with me."

"Humph."

"Don't be angry."

"Come with me and bury Medusa."

"kindness."
