Greece.

When I looked at the towering Athena statue on the top of the mountain, what came to my mind was the wreckage of the statue of Luna on the edge of the sea cliff--this sharp contrast, this human love--an extremely A tiny arrow of jealousy seemed to hit me eerily.

I lowered my head and looked at Sasha beside me. The little girl opened her mouth slightly, staring at the majestic statue of herself -- holding the goddess of victory in one hand and holding the shield in the other, combining nobility and authority, elegance and The beautiful Athena is on the top of the sanctuary, smiling and overlooking all beings.

Sasha was a little uneasy.She hasn't really awakened yet, and she hasn't grown up yet.However, the trait of loving humans is obvious, and she is Athena who came to the human world as a fake.It only takes some time, and the childish little girl will transform into a resolute goddess of war, leading her warriors to compete with Lord Hades.

There is a world of difference between gods and gods, and humans who are keen on assassination, poisoning, framing, and other depraved behaviors. They like to use their strength to crush each other.Hades-sama is going to fight against Athena who rules the sanctuary.

I patted the back of the little girl Sasha's hand lightly, as a way to reassure her, don't worry - I will wait for you to wake up, Athena.

Sasha nodded.Her gaze began to be firm and calm. She trusted me and was grateful to me.

But, Goddess of Wisdom, the power of confrontation comes from the mind and the heart. You refuse to incarnate under the statue and try to lock Pluto with emotional shackles. Pluto can also use the so-called emotions to lure you, confuse you, and shake you. ah.

I squinted at the shining goddess statue in the sun—humans do not worship Pluto, but are always afraid of death, the ultimate truth.Why not upend their world?I thought again of the important task entrusted by Lord Hades: to perform a play with a purpose in the body and heart of a human being.I'm sure, it will be very good.

I imagined the scene of negotiating with the Pope again in my mind, I looked away and looked at the back of Sisyphus wearing the holy clothes.The sun shone on him too, it was so bright, so bright.

Because it has not been confirmed yet, the Pope and the rest of the Gold Saints are only waiting for the goddess to come in the Holy See.I looked at the daily residence from the foot of the Sanctuary Mountain, winding up the mountain, connecting the main staircase of twelve palace buildings, and then looked at my attire, and the more than 100 salute boxes of Sasha behind me-this is As a human being, you can only walk on foot.

As Sasha's legally recognized guardian, and her uncle who is like a family member in her heart, coupled with my stubborn character, I have obtained the permission of the Pope, and finally stepped into this building. Normally, I can only fight, It is the Holy City that only warriors of the underworld can break through and set foot in.

At the foot of the mountain is the arena and training ground.The temples on the mountain are square and square, each with its own beauty.Surrounded by greenery, the entire sanctuary is well-organized and vibrant.The returning Sisyphus smiled and waved from time to time, and kindly greeted the people rushing over.

Most of these people are low-level saint fighters and alternate saint fighter students, with young faces brimming with passion and excitement——in order to win the holy clothes left by the previous generation of masters after the death, the teenagers are honing here Self, improve strength, flock to Athena's subordinates one after another to serve for life and death, and finally die without exception, thrown to the ice hell, this is really interesting, Athena's so-called love and justice----

I will realize the joke His Majesty Hades wants to see.Wait, sanctuary full of love and justice.I turned a deaf ear to the voices in my ears, and looked up at the goddess statue on the top of the mountain - when did it collapse?

In order to play my role well and express the solemnity of the world, I put on the traditional Italian dress of the head of the Medici family, a red and gold brocade robe, and a luxurious gold chain inlaid with precious stones. Advocating the plain and simple sanctuary is really blinding.Therefore, almost all the people I met along the way were curious about Sisyphus, who was about to meet the Pope, and the returning Sagittarius Gold Saint, who brought back two people--I also dressed Sasha It must be very luxurious.

After climbing thousands of steps, the main door of the pope's hall opened, and I finally penetrated into the core area inside the enemy cave.

The ground was covered with a thick red carpet, and I walked on it, not paying attention to the golden figures on the left and right sides, but focusing on the solemn stone throne in front of the layers of curtains.The spokesperson of the goddess Athena in the world, the supreme leader of the sanctuary, the Pope, is sitting on it.

Sisyphus saluted under the steps, and began to briefly report to the Pope how to find the goddess.

Following his introduction, I took off my hat, put it across my chest and gave the Pope a slight nod.

The Pope stood up and walked towards Sasha and me—his long silver-gray hair hung down on his cassock, he wore a necklace symbolizing status, a collar of gold gems, and golden wings that almost completely covered his appearance. Crown - can't hide a pair of wise eyes.

I couldn't take my eyes off seeing Pope Serge take a step in front of Sasha, stretch out his hand and stop on Sasha's head-this is sensing the hidden small universe of the goddess.

After a while, the pope knelt down and bowed to Sasha. His voice was firm but old, "Athena, the great goddess of wisdom and war, you finally reappeared in the sanctuary. We are loyal to you, Unswerving until death."

The golden saints standing on both sides also bowed down and saluted the goddess respectfully.

"We have welcomed back the goddess Athena!" Following this oath-like certification, the pope's hall was heard, and the entire sanctuary seemed to be boiling.Sasha was led by Sisyphus and walked to the watchtower - they stood at the foot of the huge statue of Athena, and the cheers from the mountain were deafening.

I kept smiling and looked at Pope Serge - he is a golden saint who survived the last holy war.But it has only been more than 100 years since I woke up from Hades, and I have no memory of the previous battles.And His Majesty Pluto said that the time he waited for me to serve him was far longer than several jihads——for more than 100 years, the various privileges I have obtained are unique to Hades.

So I looked directly at Serge without any burden. "Your Excellency, as Sasha's guardian, I can transfer the power to take care of her to your sanctuary, but... I need to have a chance to visit her once every ten days."

Sage neither refused nor agreed.A pair of bright eyes looked at me, "You are the heir of the Medici family in the world, why do you do this?"

I smiled, and turned my eyes to the terrace where Sisyphus and Athena were, letting my eyes faintly reveal --- like someone who is attached to someone, someone who regards it as a treasure, standing there, you see The living back will also bring joy and melancholy to my heart.

Then, I speak slowly. "I visited her to let Sasha, who has been trapped under the statue of Athena, know how a normal girl in the world should live. From now on, she knows that she can't fall in love or get married, right?"

"Excuse me, Your Excellency the Pope, I heard that you served the last Athena? Is she, elegant and noble, with the manner of a girl, the appearance of a girl, but she can never be like a real girl? The reincarnation came to the world Goddess... How many of them have truly tasted the happiness of human women?"

"In the flesh and blood of Sasha, offer the sacrifice of living youth—to the goddess of the soul."

I concluded, with a fitting smile, "Actually, before you authenticated Sasha, I had a glimmer of hope that she wasn't, so that I could take her back to Florence, teach her to dance, dress up, and watch her for a day Let the painter faithfully spread her beauty and temperament, and make people worship her as a god—a goddess in another sense.”

Followed me and let out a long sigh, "However, your Sagittarius Gold Saint Sisyphus is really capable and trustworthy. He has found the real goddess."

I looked at Sisyphus' back again. "I was very happy to get along with him along the way, and I even felt that it was more attractive than my life in Florence and Rome. Therefore, I would also like to stay and live temporarily in the Greek sanctuary."

The wise and insightful pope still did not speak.

I laughed, "Your Excellency, the manor land outside the sanctuary, I did some research before coming to Greece. Although most of them are dedicated to the goddess, there are still some that I can buy. I plan to In the town, building a mansion. Even if you drive me out of the sanctuary, I will still stay in Greece, stay in Athens. I will not give up."

Then the pope spoke.

"Mr. Medici, you are indeed as resolute and stubborn as Sisyphus described in his letter."

I smiled, and replied politely, "I dare not. In my opinion, Mr. Sisyphus is a gentle, resolute, and charming person."

Sage looked in the direction of Sisyphus and Athena, "The charm of the sanctuary comes from each of our saints and residents of the sanctuary. It is a place with the highest quality. Mr. Medici, I hope You can appreciate and get used to this difference from your previous life. I hope you exercise your visitation rights to the goddess Athena carefully."
