Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 525 526. Phidias’s Trouble

"Okay, I have to admit it."

Lan En did not get rid of Alcibiades. Even though he had a cold face from beginning to end, his stride never changed.

So he could only sit down next to the other party and talk helplessly.

"Although you look lustful and impatient, you have a good sense of proportion. You didn't touch me or make me feel disrespected! This gives me no reason to beat you even if I want to. !”

"Ah! Principled, clear-cut, and well-educated in logic and morality! This makes you even more attractive, my dear!"

Alcibiades said in a cadence.

Lan En felt that people like him would never lack bed partners in any era. He was able to turn his glib rhetoric into something that was not annoying at all and only made people feel happy.

"I enjoy physical pleasure, but I rarely abandon the pursuit of spiritual harmony in the pursuit of pleasure."

Alcibiades tugged on his luxurious shawl and spoke serious words in a frivolous tone.

"Except the other party's skills are indeed commendable, just like a courtesan in Corinth. Otherwise, I still hope that my bed partner can bring love and enjoy happiness with me."

"Before that, you can just think of me as a smooth-tongued gentleman."

Lan En raised a palm to signal to stop.

"But I think it's unlikely that I'll fall in love with you because of your efforts, so you can stop your losses in time."

"Don't be so absolute, my dear."

Alcibiades nudged Lan En beside him with his elbow, smiling casually and generously.

"There is pure and noble love between men. I have proved this to many gentlemen who disagree. Maybe with our future contact, you can also broaden your, uh... taste richness?"

"Anyway, I've said both good and bad things. It's your own business to waste your efforts."

Lan En reminded him expressionlessly.

And Alcibiades readily accepted.

"You can run away from my advances as much as you want, which makes me feel more excited, like Socrates. He's like a greased cat in front of me. But that's just the way you are. That’s what attracts people to good people.”

On the streets of Athens, more and more people are glancing here as they pass by.

Or just stop and stop.

Alcibiades was originally a very famous promiscuous young man in the city of Athens, equivalent to a top star.

But now, sitting next to him is a man who is even better in terms of appearance.

This is a very topical scene, and it will naturally attract attention.

Lan En was a little uncomfortable with it, but Alcibiades was used to it.

But what if I can have several bed partners every day? Alcibiades was keenly aware of Lan En's discomfort. He stood up first and walked towards the crowd of onlookers.

Let the two people get out of the situation of being watched.

If he is more than a friend, there is no doubt that he is a caring and enthusiastic person.

"You still don't know your name? It seems that you don't care about what you are doing in Megaris."

Alcibiades tilted his head and said.

"During this battle in Megaris, the names of two mercenaries spread in people's mouths, [Falcon Tamer] and [Son of the Titan]."

"It's a bit funny to say it, because when [Cunning One] Icanos took over Pericles' mission from Athens, he vowed that this battle would make him famous all over the world."

"What a pity. I was very optimistic about him originally."

Lan En glanced at the other party without any trace.

"But Athens was defeated at Megaris. Why does it seem like you don't care at all?"

"Because there's nothing to worry about, Lane. This is Athens."

Alcibiades smiled and opened his arms, as if to embrace the whole city, and said to Lan En.

"Even if the Spartans are now under siege, and even if Athens falls in an instant, the spirit and culture of this city can be passed down for a thousand or two thousand years. And what about Sparta? People passing through that city-state a thousand years later will It will probably be treated as nothing more than a wasteland."

"Guys who only know how to kill people will not last long."

Although these words seemed to ignore the Athenians fighting on the battlefield, they did make Lan En realize that this frivolous guy Alcibiades was a politician and military strategist worthy of being included in the textbooks.

"Okay, let's put aside the boring stuff like political situations and war situations and talk about you."

Alcibiades put one hand on his hip and spread the other hand towards Lan En.

"You accepted the mission under the statue of Hermes. Does this mean you want to do business in Athens?"

"Let's talk first." The demon hunter immediately issued a statement. "I won't sleep with anyone for money, especially a man!"

"Of course, of course!"

Alcibiades looked very sad.

"Didn't I tell you before? Before you don't want to, you can regard me as a smooth-tongued gentleman. How could I do such a thing? Use business to blackmail others into kissing me? This is so tasteless! I never Do this!"

"I really think of a problem, and I might need your help."

"Let's talk about it first."

Lan En crossed his arms and looked cautiously at the dissolute man who was famous in Athens.

"This trouble is about Phidias, the master sculptor who is famous in the Greek world. Have you heard of it?"

Alcibiades asked, holding his chin with one hand and tilting his head.

"Not really. I don't know much about the art of carving."

"Then let me tell you this: That tall and majestic red copper statue of Athena was made by him, and the statue of Athena in the Parthenon was also his work."

So Lan En raised his eyebrows, understanding what level of boss this Phidias was.

This is a character who can create ancient wonders.

"Go on, what's his trouble?"

"He personally feels that some mysterious people seem to be spying on his life recently. He has complained to everyone more than once about this matter. And he has become a little suspicious recently."

Alcibiades spoke carefully.

Lan En felt that the problem was not serious, so he scratched his cheek and spoke lightly.

"Is it possible that he has admirers or something? After all, he is an artist well-known in the Greek world, so he must have admirers."

"Who can tell? But it's not like Pheidias hasn't come into contact with fanatical admirers. Those people even think that his hands have been blessed by God. But he is even more uneasy now than he was before."

"Wait, listen to this. Is this his own commission? Or is it the commission you gave for him?"

"I'll pay for this mission, dearly."

Lan En looked strange after hearing this.

"Are you two so 'familiar'?"

"Oh, don't worry, Lan. Phidias, like you, is not very used to love between men. I met him through a favor."

Alcibiades talked eloquently.

"Many ladies who used to have fun with me are now staying alone in their vacant rooms. So I asked Phidias to use his wonderful craftsmanship to help me make several copies of the 'good things' on my body in marble for Comfort those poor ladies."

As he spoke, he straightened his waist proudly.

Lan En was speechless, which gave him a deeper understanding of the emotional life of the Athenians.
