A few days later, Athena reappeared in the Silver Lake wearing only a white robe. I was surprised to see the goddess of wisdom dressed as an ordinary fairy running to my side asking for honey and nuts.I stared at her imageless eating and drinking, and felt that she seemed to be trying to do something strange again.

Sure enough, after she was full, she stretched out her little tongue to lick the honey juice on her lips, and at the same time announced openly and honestly that she had given me away.

"What, I'm the bride's gift?"

"Why, don't you like it?" The goddess of wisdom who was still chewing a small walnut lightly threw a half-opened nut and hit me on the head, baring her teeth: "Do you still want to be a bride?"

"No, that means..." I gasped in surprise, thinking that what I said to her must be some misunderstanding: "But, why did you give me to Pandora as a gift?"

"Huh... you are really a little fool," Athena put the cup in her hand aside, and lay beside me with her arms behind her head, "Although you are called the strongest first-generation god, but you have always You don't even understand why I made Lily Fairy's face the same as yours, right?"

Erbis?

I turned around holding the amphora holding the honey juice, and there was no sign of an angel outside the forest of the Silver Lake.

"You don't have to look for it, that one is the gift I gave to Pandora - didn't she always want to get lilies, so I gave her Erbis." Biting her rubbed red lips, a smile appeared on her face. Smiling, the girl blinked her sky-blue eyes and snapped her fingers: "But, she will find that what she got is actually a diamond."

In an instant, I suddenly understood what she was going to do.

Let me go to the human world instead of Erbis, and the lily fairy will stay here, using my identity as the goddess of hope, to stay in the silver lake of Olympus.

But how can this be done?

"Don't be so surprised, I have planned this matter for a long time. Erbis has been following me to learn your movements and habits... Well, you can stop admiring me..."

The beautiful girl squinted at me, and I realized that I lost my mind and watched her keep applauding.

"However," I calmed down, and I was still very worried: "If Rhea knows that Erbis is not hope, will she treat her... Also, you will also be involved."

"Leia thinks that she has completely bound you. What she wants is not that you actually marry Zeus, but such news, which can make all the gods fear. And what you worry about will not happen. , Erbis is a fairy who obeys my will, and Leia will be afraid of my ability. Besides, Zeus will protect me..." Athena turned her face and looked at me: "Did you never find out, in fact, Zeus I have always maintained a non-intervention attitude towards this matter..." The goddess of wisdom rubbed my arm with her fingers, and her eyes stayed on the string of gem beads on my robe: "You still have Zeus in your body. He can feel your emotions, and I believe you can feel his emotions too, right?"

Lowering my head, I took Athena's hand.

I know that Zeus has always loved his brother.However, Mr. Hades, who felt that he would not be loved by his mother, he...does not love Zeus.

"Looking at you, it's really enviable. This starry black hair, perfect body... You know, Hades didn't want to hand you back to Zeus from the very beginning, so he gave you without triggering The ordinary appearance that Zeus is nostalgic for. All this is just to say to Zeus: 'Look, this is my child, don't touch her!'" Athena touched my ordinary face, but Pluto carefully made it for me Cheeks out: "Zeus understood what Hades wanted to tell him when he saw you, what a proud king he is, but he can tolerate the concubine who has already belonged to him thinking about other men... If you are not Hope, not some goddamn prominent first-generation god, he will even take the initiative to send you back to Hades..."

"I know, Athena," holding her hand tightly, I put my fingers through her fingers: "Although I belong to Lord Pluto, it was Zeus who brought me into this beautiful world. And , he has tried his best to protect me, for which I am very grateful... But, I don't know how to love him, I don't love him like Hela and other concubines, but I can only be driven by the sense of belonging. Such I... like this I..."

Athena also squeezed my hand, and we all fell silent.

"It's all right, I hope you don't have to blame yourself. These words cannot be said to other people. If everything is as easy to solve as we think, you won't be back in Olympus on the eve of the war... really Sad things," the girl wiped her eyes with the back of her hand, like a cat washing her face: "Stop talking about this, you have to prepare, and, please give me this gem bead of yours, okay? "

Although I don't know what she wants to do with these, I still pull down the starlight that has been hanging on me and put it in Athena's hands: "Do you only need these? I still have a lot..."

"No, I want this. These are the entities formed by the divine power you discarded in Hades. They contain the purest ability to be formed from the birth of the universe." Athena took the gems carefully, and the bright reflection illuminated them. She touched her face: "I want to give them a new shape and life, and then send them to the world as a gift to protect you."

Somewhat surprised, I knew that Athena had the ability to animate inanimate objects, but I never thought that she could even turn a handful of gems into an elf with her own mind.

"You, do you agree with me to do this?"

Yes!I nodded quickly, if I can leave here without causing a fight, I think this is the best way!

"Gifts made with your gemstones will carry the divine power of the Goddess of Hope, so that no one will suspect that you are among them. This is one reason, and the other reason is that I need these to protect my world ," Saying this, Athena rolled on the ground and jumped up. After finishing her loose long hair, she waved her arms towards the broad silver lake: "It's not too late, let's start now !"

Before I had time to turn my eyes away, I saw the surface of the Silver Lake suddenly burnt out following the pointing of her fingertips, and then turned into a lake of flames, but the heat of the deflagration was completely absorbed Controlled by the enchantment that was opened earlier—in the darkness that blocked the sun, the entire Silver Lake suddenly became a huge altar.

Oh my god, is this the true ability of Goddess of Wisdom!

Ignoring my exclamation, the goddess wearing only a white robe stretched out her arms towards the "altar". Her body became transparent, like a statue carved out of the most transparent cream stone. The firelight illuminated her slender body. The limbs are plated with a layer of gold.In the flickering flames, the holy voice chanted the mantra with undulating rhythm: "You guys, formed from the axis of the universe, belong to the power of the God of Hope, please accept the life bestowed by this goddess, and give up your belonging , become my subordinate and show up!"

Elegant, passionate singing.

I looked at her in surprise, the goddess of wisdom who sang with her life.In the song full of hope that she heard before she was born, the gems scattered from her crystal fingers gradually escaped my control and completely disappeared within the scope of my divine power. outside, floating in front of her.

"One, two, three... one hundred and six, one hundred and seven..." Athena counted softly. They are gems brought by my family in Hades to appease me. All contain their love.

"Loyalty, kindness, thoughtfulness, bravery...self-esteem, aggressiveness, relaxation, attention, strength, and love." Her fingertips jumped from the beautiful diamonds that reflected the bright fire, and as the gemstones touched by the goddess' fingers, they were captured. Re-given different names, I was surprised to hear them start to sing... No, I can no longer call these gems "they", I clearly feel the information of life, as if shining from themselves, from their crystal clear manifested in.

"I want to place you in this final position—the most beautiful blessing must be delivered to my people."

The location of the last gem set by the Goddess of Wisdom is me——hope.

Athena looked at me, and there was a momentary struggle in her eyes: "Hope, I want to temporarily seal you, is that okay?"

seal?

"That's...you will lose consciousness and return to the original state..."

"No!" I took a step back: "I don't want to change back to that, this body is very important to me!"

Athena lowered her eyes, and I saw her exhale softly.

"Don't worry, it won't hurt your body. I know the reason why you restrain your thoughts but don't leave here... I also know why you have such obsession with this ordinary body," the goddess raised her head again, eyes already With tears in her eyes: "It's all because of that same black-haired god... black-haired goddess, if you belonged to Zeus, if you never left after I was born...how wonderful..."

Smiling, I wiped the tears from Athena's cheeks: "I belong to Lord Pluto. This kind of cognition is something I don't even know why. If it's fate..." I thought of them, manipulated and Seeing through the past and the future, the three Goddesses of Destiny will be able to confirm the words that I said when I left Hades in an inexplicable way. If you lose hope, everything will be changed and started again? Or, if you lose me, you will lose everything? It is not like that. The idea of ​​hope exists in every life. I... It's just these thoughts A collection of ordinary gods who can no longer be ordinary..."

I stopped talking, because I noticed that the shore illuminated by the fire was already full of figures.

Turning around, a group of teenagers with pure cheeks and blue eyes shining like blue sky stood quietly by the lake.

I look back at Athena, who is wiping away a trace of bright red from the corner of her mouth.

"I'm fine, it's just that giving them life will consume some of my divine power..." Pushing away my arm that was intended to hold her, Athena took a small step forward, with a soothing smile on her beautiful face: "Welcome Come into the world, my children."

Like newborn animals, they looked at me and Athena, and the children's confused eyes became the center of attention because of her call.

"Thank you, the words of blessing are the names you gave us. I swear by these beautiful words, may the glory belong to you forever, the goddess of wisdom and hope who gave us life." These children made a unified voice of praise, Then, it disappeared in an instant.

The flames of the Silver Lake also disappeared.In the blink of an eye, the dispelled protective barrier re-filtered the sunlight, and the reflection of the golden shards on the surface of the lake made me feel that what I just experienced was an illusion.But the string of precious stones that fell on the shore of the lake, each set with a golden olive branch, has become a beautiful necklace.

I covered my mouth in a daze, while Athena knelt down on the ground and panted heavily.

"It's really not that simple, as expected of Goddess of Wisdom." Picking up the jewelry that shone like a ray of galaxy, I approached Athena carefully, and lifted the robe to wipe the sweat off her face: "It's so well hidden, I always thought You're just an ordinary kid..."

Holding my face, Athena scolded me: "Don't make trouble, listen to me! Any god who brings the quasi-concubine of the king of gods out of Olympus will be executed, and the status of the quasi-concubine will also be questioned Infidelity is abolished. However, in the law code formulated by you, human beings with small abilities are not within the scope of punishment. Therefore, I plan like this——Pandora will go to the world with her countless dowry in a few days, I will put you and this string of gems in a box made of my enchantment and give it to her as a lily goddess, so when she opens the box, she will be surprised because there is a necklace inside, just as she takes it out When you collect gems, these gems will become envoys with blessed will, and you will sleep peacefully in my enchantment, and then you will wake up." Observing my suddenly enlightened expression, Athena smiled: "You once asked Hela, I will let her bless the God of Sleep immediately, and you will become Hypnos' fiancée and return to Hades. In this way, no god or man will sin."

"So... will I wait for a long time?" Listening to her perfect escape plan, I lowered my voice: "If she never opens that box..."

Shaking her head, Athena sighed softly with a wry smile: "In order to be able to combine with her sweetheart, Pandora gave up the long lifespan bestowed on her by God, that is to say... she will have a short life just like my people on earth. But a life worth remembering... Although these gifts are not strange treasures to her, she will not wait for a long time, maybe a few years, maybe shorter, and she will open the gift prepared for her by the Protoss To pass it on to my sons and daughters..."

Explaining in a low voice, Athena's tone was slightly sad.

"You, have you decided?" Athena took my hand, she took a breath, and stroked my ankle-length black hair: "Hope, leave here, go back to where you are going according to your heart." place."

Athena?

"Remember, I will miss you, you who gave me hope of life, my friend of Pallas."

smile, nod...

The singing sounded again, this time, the familiar melody was gentle and gentle, humming softly in my ears like a lullaby to lull you to sleep.

Sudden sleepiness, I closed my eyes, leaned on my friend's shoulder and fell asleep.
