Greek Mythology: The Spiritual Dominator

While Zeus and his 'strategists' were immersed in their plans for the future, to their northwest, near the mainland, Hecate and Selene had just completed their own little adventure.

A brief confrontation ended, and Hecate easily defeated her opponent - a monster with six heads and eight legs.

The red shoe stepped on the monster's head. Hecate raised a transparent crystal and looked at it carefully.

Under her feet, despite being as big as a mountain, the monster seemed unable to carry her. Although it struggled desperately, it could not move.

"Have you made yourself heavier?"

Although she has witnessed her friend's magical witchcraft more than once over the years, Selene still doesn't know why.

As a deity, her life essence is extremely high. But without special training, her mental power was not that strong.

The essence of immortality, authority, and divine power are the foundation for gods to transcend the mortal world. If you throw away these, the gods of Chaos may not be smarter or more powerful than mortals.

So of course, the Moon Goddess cannot see the mystery behind witchcraft. She can only try to understand the principle from the appearance.

"No, in fact, I made it heavier."

Shaking her head, Hecate stamped her foot. The monster didn't react at all, which seemed to prove that her own weight had not changed.

"I strengthened the earth's attraction to it, and then this big guy 'heavy' itself. There is no way, a sea monster like this doesn't know how to cut off the connection between itself and the earth and fly freely in the air. "

"Speaking of which, I don't know what kind of people are able to create such weird beings. There is definitely something wrong with their aesthetics."

There is no doubt that the life before us is not a creation of the Silver Age. It is suspected to be the son of the ancient sea god and the descendant of Phorcys, the wrath of the sea.

This sea god is also known as the father of sea monsters. He once gave birth to thousands of sea monsters with Ceto, the dangerous sea monster who has not yet been reborn and obtained the divine power of "beauty". These sea monsters are not gods, but they all possess extraordinary power.

And the one in front of him is probably the bloodline of the father of the sea monster several generations apart. The divine aura on it has become extremely weak, so that it has no resistance to Hecate's witchcraft.

But its mortal bloodline proves that it grows like this not only because of the sea monster's bloodline, but also because many mortal objects in the Golden Age are very strange in themselves.

"Slate Slate, do you know what this thing is?"

Raising the spar in her hand, Hecate asked the book floating aside under the unconcerned gaze of the Moon Goddess.

Just like a treasure chest, no matter what she sees, the book she carries with her can give the answer.

[This is the core of an ancient star in the first era]

[There were no star gods in that era, and few celestial bodies other than the sun and moon could emit light]

[This thing in your hand comes from a powerful lightless star]

"My predecessor was a star in the sky. I feel nothing like my sister's children."

Hecate pursed her lips at Selene, who spread her hands and smiled back.

The stars in the first era were different from those in later times. They did not emit light. Some were born with the god of lightless celestial bodies, and some were the residue of the earth that escaped at the beginning of creation.

Selene once heard her mother say that in those days, Heavenly Father often took pleasure in his children. He threw the sun, which was not yet powerful at the time, into the ocean. It was also because of this that the goddess of boiling water was born. He also often shattered the symbols of divine power of Coos, the god of lightless celestial bodies, so that many celestial bodies broke and disintegrated in that era and fell into the mortal world.

The one in front of me is probably the core of an ancient star. After falling into the sea, it was accidentally discovered by the sea monster from before.

Although the sea monster doesn't know how to use its power, its instinct tells it that this energy-containing crystal is very good for it.

"Maybe it can be made into a crystal ball. If you use it for divination, the effect will definitely be very good."

Nodding with satisfaction, Hecate did not intend to simply extract the energy from the star core. This kind of pure crystal can absorb the power of the spiritual world to the greatest extent, and can glimpse the future.

So she put the crystal in her hand into the small bag she carried with her. It was not suitable to handle it now. This ancient star core contains extraordinary power. Only special means can be used to polish it into shape without losing its essence.

"Congratulations, Hecate, you have obtained another treasure."

On the side, Selene gave timely blessings.

She glanced at Hecate's little bag with envy, the kind of package that could hold a lot of things, and she wanted one too.

Unfortunately, according to Hecate, it is something that only wizards can use. Currently, she has no way to make it available to others.

"Thank you. Speaking of which, Selene, how have you considered my previous suggestions?"

There was a satisfied smile on her face, but Hecate had not forgotten her friend.

In fact, a long time ago, she had proposed to teach Selene the secrets of witchcraft, but the other party seemed to have some considerations. Although she seemed very moved, she never agreed.

But this time, thinking about the scene where she was almost caught by Zeus not long ago, Hecate felt that Selene would have a different answer.

".I have thought about it for a long time, Hecate. In fact, there is a reason why I rejected you before."

Under Hecate's expectant gaze, after hesitating for a moment, Selene finally spoke.

"Before you were born, my father had a conflict with the god who dominated the spiritual world because of me. If you let me connect to the spiritual world, it is very likely that you will also be in danger."

"So, is this what you have always been worried about, because you are afraid that you and I will be punished by some being for this?"

Pouring her lips indifferently, Hecate pulled the floating book beside her into her arms.

"Slate, Slate, if I teach my friend the secrets of witchcraft and let her use the spiritual world to meditate, will she be in danger?"

She didn't ask herself, because Hecate knew very well that there was no way she would be in danger.

After all, the predecessor of the book in his hand was so similar to a legendary artifact, and the materials he used to try to weave the magic network were also extremely pure spiritual strings. She was not the famous stupid god Epimetheus, so how could she worry about her own safety.

But just because he is the special one does not mean that his friends can also benefit from it. So to avoid surprise, she still asked.

[No, but she can only meditate around you]

[Speed ​​up your preparations for the Magic Network. In comparison, absorbing pure elements and spiritual power through the Magic Network is more suitable for novices than facing the spiritual world directly]

Nowadays, the spiritual world is getting closer and closer to the complete opening, but it is still a little bit unprepared. At this time, it would be no joke if some being sneaked in because of random openings.

What's more, facing the spiritual world directly is not a necessary condition for meditation. Spiritual power is spread among all things. As for the gods, they can temper their spirits through 'self-contemplation' without having to practice crude meditation methods.

After all, the right one is the best. It's just that Selene is somewhat different.

Some guy sitting on Mount Sinaia made an exception for someone other than Hecate because she was the moon goddess. Although core interests are involved, he will not return the concept of Yue to the other party. But in other places, I don’t mind a small opening of convenience.

"I'll just say it, it's no problem."

Not knowing what was going on behind her, Hecate looked at her good friend after learning the answer she wanted.

".Then I'll give it a try."

Although the scene of Father God being chased by the black mist and being seriously injured and walking away still echoed in her mind, now that it was confirmed, the desire in Selene's heart finally defeated her fear.

So facing Hecate's gaze, the Moon Goddess nodded heavily.
