Greece brings evildoers

Chapter 247 Athena’s road to defeat (3.4k)

At the same time, Ares Mountain.

A sneaky figure appeared in front of the great temple, sticking his head out to look into the room from time to time.

Athena, who was sitting under the fluorite lamp and flipping through the files, glanced up at the familiar figure in the darkness and sighed helplessly.

"Auntie, if you have anything to say, just come in, no one will stop you."

Hestia outside the door heard this and slipped into the empty temple with a smile. After a moment of hesitation, she spoke hesitantly.

"Athena, can you make a small suggestion?"

"What?"

"Don't strike so harshly every time. Can't you be gentler to him?"

Athena closed the file in her hand and looked at the hearth goddess in front of her with a half-smile.

"What, are you feeling distressed?"

"He is my follower after all, and he hasn't made any heinous mistakes. A small admonishment is enough. But every time you find an opportunity, you beat him until he can't get out of bed. I wonder if you are doing it on purpose. Target him."

"Yes, I was targeting him intentionally."

Athena pushed the file aside and nodded without concealment.

Hestia couldn't help but feel a look of astonishment on her face when she heard this.

"Why?"

"If he is just an ordinary demigod, and then becomes an ordinary slave god, and just wants to live peacefully under your and my wings, of course I will not do this deliberately."

Athena spoke calmly, a pair of deep purple eyes flickering under the light.

"It's a pity that he is not..."

"I don't quite understand what you mean."

Hestia, who was in a fog, scratched her head, looking confused.

Athena rolled her eyes at her aunt and snorted angrily.

"You don't really think that he is just some collateral bloodline of Ares, do you?"

"Isn't it?"

"Can an ordinary collateral line easily accommodate the divine incarnation of Crete? Can an ordinary collateral line single-handedly defeat two Gorgon banshees who have absorbed the divinity of the old sea god Pontos? Ordinary collateral lines can With the strength of a god, I am undefeated? Even Ares himself can't do this. How can it be a talent that only ordinary demigods can possess?"

Hearing that meaningful reminder, Hestia suddenly realized a possibility and murmured dryly.

"You mean...the bloodline of the God King!"

"if not?"

Athena rolled her eyes at her aunt who was belatedly aware of this, and shook her head with a sneer.

"With those little tricks of his, I'm afraid he can deceive people all over the place."

After being teased by her niece, Hestia couldn't help but feel angry: "Why have you never said such a thing?"

"He didn't want to say it."

Athena spread her hands innocently, her face calm.

"Since he has concerns about his life experience, why should I bother with it? It's better to see through some things without telling them."

Immediately, the goddess of wisdom revealed a hint of hidden darkness in her purple eyes, and smiled jokingly.

"Besides, isn't it fun to watch him rack his brains all day long and come up with all kinds of excuses to frustrate me?"

"..."

Looking at her niece's smile that revealed a hint of sinisterness and malice under the fluorite lamp, Hestia suddenly felt a chill on her body and couldn't help but ask cautiously.

"Then when did you discover this?"

"Probably after the Battle of Crete."

Athena yawned and spoke casually.

"His performance and talents are so outstanding, far beyond ordinary demigods. He is sharp and sharp, but he hides his clumsiness without knowing anything at all. Moreover, he always gives me a feeling of déjà vu..."

Hestia couldn't help but be slightly startled when she heard this.

"Deja vu?"

"Ahem, that's about right. It may be the resonance between the bloodline of the God King."

Athena responded vaguely, her purple eyes twinkling slightly.

If before the Battle of Crete, she only had doubts and feelings, then after the Battle of Crete, there was the great sacrifice of the [Bull], the visit of Circe, the great witch of Ayo, and the underworld. The ambiguous relationship between the moon goddess Hecate and that boy has made me basically sure of the true identity of that little bastard.

It's just that these things involve too many things and it's not convenient to explain them clearly to Aunt Hestia.

Hestia was not satisfied with Athena's ambiguous answer.

"Even if he has the blood of the God King, and Zeus has left many heirs, there is no need for you to target him specifically, right?"

"I have many brothers and sisters, but there are not many who have plotted against the God King and the Olympus Gods like he did!"

"?"

Hestia looked shocked when she heard this.

Athena rolled her eyes at her aunt who had not yet turned around, and snorted meaningfully.

"Just because I don't talk about some things doesn't mean that he hasn't done it, and it doesn't mean that I don't know the tricks behind his back:

In the last battle, I lost Crete and Poseidon lost Atlantis, but he not only established his own sect on my territory and successfully became a god, he also condensed the divinity of the ocean into his body. and the two incarnations of the earthly divinity;

On a safari in Arcadia, Hermes lost his son;

Helped Apollo take care of the nine muses, but ended up taking care of them on the bed of Ares Mountain;

Going for Asclepius, the three graceful goddesses under Aphrodite changed hands;

Even the shut-in goddesses of memory and justice came to Athens because of him and stood up for him;

…

As long as he is involved in these things, others will suffer heavy losses, but he will make a lot of money. It may be a coincidence once, but is it the same every time? "

Listening to Athena's faint rhetorical question, Hestia thought about it carefully, sweating slightly on her forehead.

But the long-term trust made her unable to help but defend herself.

"Isn't he thinking about you and Athens?"

"Did you ask the three goddesses Meihui to be your slave gods? Did I ask him to carry the two Titan goddesses and a lot of other slave gods up the mountain?"

Athena glanced at her aunt, who was still protecting her family god, and spoke softly.

"Don't think of him as some harmless little white rabbit. He didn't do this just for me."

"Where's the evidence?"

"No."

When Hestia heard this, she immediately perked up.

"After working on it for a long time, it turns out that these are just your guesses and suspicions."

"This is enough!"

Athena interrupted Hestia's defense with a cold snort, her purple eyes as deep as the abyss flickering faintly.

"Although he hid it well and didn't allow me to catch the real clue. But in the world of the gods, this little cleverness can't protect him forever!

Many things do not require evidence. The key is not whether he did it or whether he left any evidence, but what the powerful party thinks!

These are the principles he taught King Minos, but he himself forgot!

A simple fear could send King Minos to his death, and the Minoans could almost be exterminated.

If His Majesty the God King was suspicious of him and paid attention to such a restless son, do you think he could live peacefully until now?

Do you know how much trouble his little actions and the many gods gathered on the God of War caused me?

If he hadn't been carrying your banner and I had attracted most of the attention for him in Olympus, his fate might not have been much better than Asclepius! "

Listening to Athena's merciless scolding, Hestia was still a little scared at first, but as the end of that touching sentence came to an end, the Hearth Goddess immediately felt relieved, hugging her niece's arm and swaying with a smile.

"So, after saying so much, you are obviously caring about him!"

The goddess of wisdom, who had a straight face, was slightly startled, and suddenly realized that she had accidentally exposed her true thoughts.

But as arrogant as she was, she didn't want to lower her face and admit it. She just held her head high and hummed softly.

"I just don't want his self-righteous cleverness to be noticed by my Father God in advance and ruin my big event!"

"Then didn't you just say that he had ulterior motives?" Hestia retorted with a smile.

"It doesn't matter. Since I choose to trust him, I'm not afraid of the little thoughts he hides." Athena said calmly, "Whatever he wants to do, you can try it. Even if he is so bold that he wants to compete for the kingship of Olympus, I This sister also gives him this opportunity."

But then, the wise female myth changed her direction, cracked her finger bones, and sneered.

"But if his usual little tricks can't even be hidden from my eyes, and his own strength can't defeat me, what qualifications does he have to fool the gods and challenge the supreme heavenly father in Olympus?

Without the support of strength, no matter how many conspiracies and calculations are made, they will not come to the surface. If you rely on your own cleverness, when the real crisis comes, you can only let others slaughter you. "

Hestia nodded thoughtfully after hearing this.

"So, you beat him for his own good?"

"It's better to suffer more losses in my hands and restrain your self-righteous cleverness than to be caught in the act and die without a burial place!"

Athena spoke confidently, but she couldn't help but touch the raised phalanges on her hand.

Of course, there are also reasons for itchy hands...

At this time, Hestia couldn't help but waved her pink fists in anger, pretending to share the same hatred as Athena.

"You're right! Beat him! You should beat him! Remember to ask me to join you next time!"

However, when Athena heard this, she looked at her aunt meaningfully.

"That's all? He has hidden a lot of things from you."

"You don't care, so why should I? What he wants to say will be said by himself in the future."

Hestia smiled coquettishly, then raised her head to look at the Holy Mountain of Olympus among the stars, her eyes filled with clarity and determination.

"And no matter what he is thinking or doing, I believe he will make the world a better place!"

Athena took a deep look at Hestia beside her. After a long time, she sighed dejectedly, her lips and teeth moving silently.

It turns out that I lost here before...

Hestia, who was looking up at the stars, seemed to hear some kind of sound, and turned back to look at her eldest niece beside her in surprise.

"what are you saying?"

"nothing."

Athena straightened her face and waved gently.

"Auntie, we have talked enough today. If you have nothing else to do, go back and rest first."

Hestia did not rush to leave, but carefully raised her hand.

"There is another question. If he is never your opponent, won't he always be suppressed and bullied by you?"

"If you don't want to be punished, then don't leave any clues when doing things in the future, or beat me openly on the battlefield!"

"What happens after he wins?"

"After I win...I...ahem, let's talk about the rest later!"

Athena, who was speaking, didn't know what she was thinking of. Her face was tense and blushed for no reason. She pushed Hestia, who wanted to get to the bottom of the matter, out of the temple.

"Okay, okay, you go back first. I have to be busy tonight to implement the ideas he mentioned. Really, he only mentioned everything roughly and left the rest to me. I don't know who is working for whom."

Hestia, who was driven to the square, disappeared into the closed temple door with her niece's complaints and frowned.

Being bullied all the time is not a solution, otherwise...

The goddess of the stove thought for a long time, and finally looked at the bright light with flame patterns on her palm under the moonlight.
