Chapter 27: New Trial! (Please Add It To Your Collection!)
[Poseidon can accept a loss, but not a big loss! ]
[The blessing has been given, so I have to ask you to do a small favor. ]
[Aren't you going to take the trial? ]
[The problem that has been bothering me for a long time has a solution. ]
["Zoe, since you have taken my blessing, is it okay to do me a favor?" ]
["One thing is one thing, Your Majesty Poseidon." ]
[You realize that this old bird wants to get something for free, and immediately say seriously: "The blessing is given to me by you in consideration of Your Majesty Athena, not as a reward for the trial. . . . "]
["Just say it!" ]
["So, you have to pay more." ]
[". . . . "]
[Poseidon has been silent more times in his life than today. ]
[Seeing him being defeated, Hermes in the sky laughed with his hands on his stomach, saying that you should not believe in Athena, but should believe in him, Hermes! ]
[He has a hunch that he should get along very well with you. ]
["You are so greedy."]
["Thank you for your compliment."]
[Looking at you without changing your expression, Poseidon knew that if he wanted to ask you for help, he would probably have to bleed a little. ]
[He thought for a moment and fished out a lantern from the sea. ]
["This is a lamp made by Hestia herself, which never goes out. It can guide you, and no darkness can swallow it. I give it to you as a reward."]
[Take over the ordinary black lantern, look at it for a while, always feel that Poseidon is using waste to fool you. ]
[Athena on the side saw your thoughts, and leaned close to your ear and whispered: "The lantern is not the point, the point is the flame inside. Anyway, just take it, Poseidon did not deceive you, this is really a good thing."]
[The breath exhaled by Athena has a hint of sweetness. ]
[It smells good. ]
[It's just that the distance is too close, making your ears itchy, making you a little embarrassed. ]
[Hephaestus couldn't bear it, so he pulled you away, took off the bracelet on his wrist, and roughly stuffed it into your hand. ]
["Wear it normally, it can save your life when you are in danger."]
[This is....]
[What's wrong? ]
[You are confused, and always feel that Hephaestus is a little weird. ]
[But there are benefits to be gained, so you don't think too much about it, so you are ready to thank Hephaestus. ]
[But unexpectedly, Hephaestus' figure disappeared in just a short while. ]
[Forget it. ]
[Next time you have a chance to return to Lemnos, thank her in person. ]
[Put on the golden bracelet and carry the lantern. ]
[You accepted Poseidon's trial. ]
["I want you to go to Crete and kill the monster in the labyrinth, the Minotaur!"]
....The name Minotaur often appears in various works, especially in works about different worlds.
It is a bull-headed man in Greek mythology, a monster born from the abnormal sexual relationship between Pasiphae, the wife of King Minos of Crete, and a bull of Crete.
Speaking of which, the appearance of the Minotaur is somewhat related to Poseidon.
In order to prove that his usurpation of power was legitimate, Minos prayed to Poseidon for a miracle.
It is not known whether Poseidon was careless or intentional.
He rewarded Minos with a beautiful white bull and asked him to sacrifice the bull to himself.
Minos was reluctant to do so, so he slaughtered another bull for sacrifice, which angered Poseidon.
In a rage, Poseidon cursed Poseidon's wife and fell in love with the white bull.
In order to cover up the scandal, Taunus ordered a wooden cow to be made and locked his wife in it.
As a result, the wooden cow was so realistic that the white bull really thought it was a cow, so he took up his gun and mounted his horse....
There is no need to say more about what happened next.
The Minotaur was born. In order to cover up the scandal, Taunus asked Daedalus to build a maze and locked the Minotaur in it.
He also played the trick of killing the donkey after it had done its work, sealed the exit of the maze, and locked Daedalus and his son Ikaros in it together.
"I understand."
After sorting out the context, Alex took on the trial.
"Then go, we will be in the temple, watching your triumph."
Poseidon nodded with satisfaction, and then returned to the bottom of the sea.
"Come on, little Zoe."
I don't know what bad idea she has, Athena patted Alex on the shoulder with a smile: "When you complete the trial, I have a surprise for you."
It's better to be surprised, not scared!
Alex wanted to stay away from Athena, mainly because the goddess of wisdom was too smart.
He always felt like a puppet being led by her.
But he wanted to be a hero, but he couldn't leave her.
He could only force a smile and decline, saying, "It's an honor to be appreciated by you.
I can't accept your surprise again." "That's not up to you."
Athena snorted, grabbed Alex ear, and said, "Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking if you don't say it.
Anyway, I don't care, I will give you a surprise! Whether you accept it or not!"
Isn't this too overbearing? "Sorry, the gods are so overbearing, do you have any objections?"
Alex: "....."
Oh no, I forgot that the gods can read minds again! "It's decided, I'm leaving, you come on."
After encouraging Alex, Athena's figure slowly disappeared into the air. "Finally, they are all gone."
Alex exhaled, and the whole person was visibly relaxed.
Being around a group of main gods, the pressure is really too great.
But he is still a weakling, and if he is not careful, he will restart on the spot.
End this simulation.
If possible, Alex actually prefers to stay with Anna, Togo and others.
"Zoe, are you unhappy?"
"Not unhappy..."
How can he not be happy after being blessed and having a life-saving trump card?
It's just...
I always feel that the black-bellied Athena is planning something again.
Alex really can't think of it.
"Forget it."
"Let's solve the problem in front of us first."
Turning his head to look at Anna and Togo who were staring at him with two pairs of eyes, waiting for him to make a decision, Alex smiled, waved his hand, pointed to the direction of Crete, and said heroically: "Zoe team is going, partners, let's start a new adventure!"
"Oh oh!"
Although she felt a little inexplicably ashamed, Anna still cooperated and raised one arm and echoed.
Togo howled and corrected the mistakes in Alex words.
"Woo woo woo!" (It should be Togo's team!)
