Although it will only last for a short time, it will dissipate, but just as Nuoyan said to Clotho at that time, although it blooms for only a moment, that beautiful scene will be painted in the heart forever.
Artemis, the moon goddess, is now standing there stupidly.
Looking at Nuoyan handing the painting to her, Artemis did not take it.
Because she had not recovered at all.
The blue eyes stared at the black-haired and green-eyed boy in front of her. The wind blew their hair. The white lily on the ground, which symbolized purity and innocence, swayed slightly. The clear pond on the side reflected the painting in the sky, and also reflected the scene of the boy presenting the painting in his hand to the goddess.
Atalanta was watching this scene from the side.
At this moment, she suddenly felt that the scene in front of her was also a painting.
And she probably would never forget such a scene in her life.
"You don't want it?"
Just when Artemis was looking at Nuoyan stupidly and hadn't reached out to take the painting he handed over, Hera came.
She was dressed in noble clothes, with beautiful golden curly hair pouring out from under the crown, and her amber eyes were staring at the painting.
The flawless and beautiful face showed undisguised jealousy.
"You don't want it, I want it!"
As she said that, Hera was about to reach out to grab the painting in Nuoyan's hand.
On hearing this, Artemis reacted, and the next second she hurriedly snatched it away, holding it tightly in her arms, stepped back a few steps, and looked at Hera with great vigilance.
Hera looked at the painting being snatched away by Artemis with regret on her face, and then her beautiful eyes were placed on Nuoyan.
In her eyes, the flame of desire burned.
...Huh?
Just when Nuoyan saw this, he blinked his eyes gently.
"I want Nuoyan too, I want a painting like this too!" Excited Hera stepped forward and prepared to grab Nuoyan tightly.
"That's enough." Athena came here, she stretched out her hand to stop Hera, and said: "Hera, you scared him... and you want to ask the child for tribute, the premise should be to complete your unfinished promise first, right?
Have you met Hephaestus, have you found the child's brush and canvas, and... you haven't finished the wedding of Hades yet, right?"
"Athena..." Hera stared at Athena with a little crazy feeling, and said: "I am the goddess of this child!"
Athena ignored her after hearing this, and looked at Nuoyan with her dazzling golden eyes. When Nuoyan felt bad in his heart, he showed a smile that was like a 'signature'...
So far, as long as Athena showed such a smile, Nuoyan has never encountered a good thing!
"Don't worry, Nuoyan. I won't ask you for such a painting like Hera did, but..." Athena narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "Little Nuoyan is not obedient. The painting you present to me next time must be more beautiful than tonight, understand?"
When Nuoyan hadn't reacted yet, Hera, who showed an expression of contempt, glanced at Athena with a face full of contempt, and then raised her eyebrows slightly, as if she had noticed something, and said, "Wait for another painting..."
Hera finally reacted at this moment, recalling the painting that Athena showed off to her, and then looked up at the painting presented in the night, and said to Athena with wide eyes: "Wait a minute, your painting at the beginning was also painted by Nuoyan?!"
Ah, is it finally exposed?
Athena still smiled elegantly, and then turned her head away.
After getting the answer, Hera once again set her sights on Nuoyan, and at this time her jealousy was no longer written on her face, but seemed to jump out of her body.
Seeing this, Nuoyan's body subconsciously tensed up, and then he heard Hera say faintly: "Nuoyan, where is my, my... painting?"
Hera's voice was not mixed with the expected anger, only a strong resentment.
And this just shows that she is only one step away from the final breakthrough.
"Nuoyan, I am...your goddess!"
Hera bit her lips tightly, and just finished speaking.
"Actually, I don't mind being your next goddess, Nuoyan." Athena took over with a smile on her face.
Hearing this, Hera didn't turn around to vent her anger at the moment to Athena.
"I don't mind either!" Holding the painting tightly in her arms, Artemis, who was afraid that it would be snatched away, came over and said seriously: "Nuoyan, I can also be your goddess!"
Atalanta on the side heard this and subconsciously opened her mouth to say something, but looking at the scene in front of her, she thought about it and lowered her head obediently.
Then she suddenly saw the Pegasus beside her, who had come down from the night at some point.
It was eating grass skillfully beside him...
"You two guys..." Hera gnashed her teeth, looking at the two goddesses who were eyeing her believers, and felt that the uncontrollable anger and jealousy in her heart were about to burst out of her body.
Hera even felt that at this moment, she was more angry than when she caught Zeus cheating!
"Don't think about my believer every day, he is mine, don't even think about it... Oh, by the way, take this opportunity to make it clear!"
Then Hera set her sights on Nuoyan again, and said eagerly and with great hope: "Nuoyan, who do you want to be your goddess? You will definitely choose me, right..."
Hera hadn't finished speaking when Artemis looked at Nuoyan expectantly.
Athena stopped the topic from continuing.
After all, she knew very well what Nuoyan's choice was at the current stage.
"Okay." So Athena reached out to stop Hera and said, "Stop talking. Look around... It's really lively tonight."
Hearing this, Hera was stunned for a moment, then tilted her head and scanned the surroundings.
Feeling the gazes gathered here, Hera's face darkened instantly when she thought that her performance just now had been watched by them.
After glaring at Athena, one of the culprits, Hera had to compromise and suppress her emotions under such circumstances, saying: "Okay, I can ignore these things now, but Nuoyan, you must also prepare such a painting for me!"
"Okay."
What everyone present did not expect was that Nuoyan agreed very happily at this moment, as if he had been prepared for it.
Even Athena was a little surprised by this.
Then Nuoyan nodded and continued to say to Hera: "Honorable Goddess Hera, I will prepare a painting for you, but... Sorry, before that, I need to meet the God of Craftsmen Hephaestus and ask her for a brush and canvas."
In order to avoid Hera's misunderstanding, Nuoyan quickly told Hera that he was now unable to paint the gods, so he needed the God of Craftsmen Hephaestus to make a special artifact for him.
Hearing this, Hera couldn't help but glance at the painting tightly held in Artemis' arms, and then looked at the sky, and understood some reasons in her heart.
"Therefore, goddess Hera, I hope that when I am able, you will allow me and grant me such an honor to paint you on the painting... and that will also be my first painting that truly depicts a god."
Nuoyan laughed and said to Hera, who was slightly stunned, "I have never forgotten the gift you, the noble goddess, bestowed upon me in Jason's hometown, and I have never forgotten what happened in Aegina.
I have always felt that I am very lucky to be your believer, so great goddess, please grant me this honor on that day."
Hera is a jealous goddess.
Nuoyan knew this very well.
Therefore, Nuoyan had long considered that his dedication of the painting to Artemis might cause Hera's disgust, so he had already made preparations to deal with it.
And it is not difficult to extinguish Hera's anger.
Although there is no finished product at the moment, and the painting dedicated to Hera is still a blank folder, in fact, it only needs to make it look like she is the first consideration.
After all, as long as it doesn't involve marriage, Hera is easy to talk to in every sense.
Unlike Artemis, who always thinks about hunting.
So after Nuoyan finished speaking, Hera, who had originally written unhappiness and jealousy on her face, changed her face at this moment, and instantly turned into surprise.
And after hearing this, Artemis blinked and felt depressed about the painting in her hand. She felt that it didn't seem so fragrant... But even so, she held it tightly and had no intention of letting go.
"Athena, did you hear that?"
Then Hera immediately boasted to Athena with a proud face: "This child still remembers me, and the first person he draws will be me!"
But, the first painting he really dedicated to the gods is still me...
Thinking in her heart, Athena did not break Nuoyan's stage, but just smiled lightly, and looked at Nuoyan with a slightly meaningful look in her golden eyes.
At the same time, Athena really couldn't say anything at the moment. After all, Nuoyan made Hera the first god to be truly depicted, which was reasonable in various aspects.
So just like that, Nuoyan successfully spent the night.
Hera got the result she wanted, and even couldn't wait to see her daughter, the god of craftsmen Hephaestus. She longed to get a painting like Artemis tonight.
Although Athena didn't get anything, she was already very satisfied. After all, for a goddess like her, everything tonight was too interesting. Nuoyan didn't disappoint her again... Although she also felt very jealous in her heart.
As for Artemis, the biggest winner tonight, she had already been knocked unconscious by too much happiness, and the whole person was now confused.
It was not until Athena and Hera were about to take Artemis away that she came back to her senses a little.
"Wait, wait, I haven't given the little Nuoyan a gift yet!" Artemis said loudly.
Hearing this, Hera and Athena were slightly stunned, and then they both stopped.
Indeed, it would be unreasonable not to give gifts or favors for such a tribute tonight.
If Artemis didn't give it, tomorrow, the gods would definitely take this opportunity to laugh at her and laugh at her stinginess, thus covering up the jealousy in their hearts.
But for such a tribute, what kind of gift would Artemis give?
Hera couldn't help but stop and looked at Artemis curiously.
And at this moment,
"Goddess Artemis, this is not a tribute from me alone, but a blessing and gift from everyone in Calydon and Atalanta."
Nuoyan spoke, and he even turned around, pulled Atalanta over, and said seriously: "Therefore, Goddess Artemis, I am not entitled to this gift alone, please give it equally to everyone!"
Hearing this, Hera couldn't help but look at Nuoyan with some emotion.
This is the child who can bring honor to me... No, I must take better care of him from today, and I must not let Athena take advantage of it!
Thinking of this, Hera glared at Athena again.
Athena ignored Hera at this moment, but looked at Nuoyan with some playfulness.
After all, she saw in the morning that Nuoyan prepared the painting so carefully because he was afraid of being hunted by Artemis, so she naturally judged what Nuoyan was thinking at this time.
That is to pull everyone to stand in front of Artemis.
Artemis, who heard the words, felt the blessings contained in the sky lanterns in the night, and looked at the first one in front of her, her most loyal little believer, who lit the sky lantern, and Artemis really had no way to refute it.
Just as she hesitated...
"Give the blessing to the entire Calydonian Kingdom." Athena spoke up, she smiled and said: "Forgive their past mistakes and bless them all, that's what they expect.
And Artemis, you should also satisfy the wishes of your little believer so that she can follow you from now on.
If you keep your promise, Artemis, you can no longer scare him with hunting from today."
"Is that all?" Artemis looked at Athena in confusion.
"Of course, Goddess Artemis!" Without waiting for Athena to answer, Atalanta said excitedly: "It is my greatest wish to follow you, please give me such an honor!"
"Okay." Seeing this, Artemis smiled a little helplessly and happily, nodded to Atalanta and said: "Since this is your wish, little Atalanta, then let it be... What about the promise?"
"In addition to not being able to hunt anymore, of course it's the painting."
After Athena answered, everyone present was slightly stunned.
"Painting?" Artemis looked at Athena in confusion, then looked at the painting in her hand, and the next second she immediately hugged it tightly, looking at Athena with a vigilant face.
"It's not the one in your hand."
Athena rolled her eyes at Artemis and said, "But when Nuoyan gets the brush and canvas from Hephaestus, Artemis, you are not allowed to make any requests to Nuoyan anymore. You must be carved into his canvas obediently.
And from now on, when this child asks you for help, you cannot refuse!"
This sentence is a bit absolute, but even Hera showed an expression of "it should be so", after all, those sky lanterns are still lit in the sky.
"No problem!" Hearing this, Artemis didn't even give Nuoyan a chance to speak, and immediately nodded and agreed, as if she was afraid that the other party would go back on his word.
She actually didn't care about what Athena said later, she only heard the first half of the sentence, that Nuoyan would draw another one for her in the future.
Seeing this, Nuoyan hesitated for a while, and then didn't say anything.
After all, his biggest goal was indeed achieved with the help of Athena.
Since Artemis made a promise, she could no longer hunt Nuoyan from now on.
So it finally became quiet tonight... No, to be exact, before the night was illuminated by the sun, the area of Calydon could not be quiet no matter what.
At the same time, the sky lanterns stopped after flying a distance in the night sky.
Although this painting was destined to dissipate in the sky when the sun appeared, tonight, the goddess of the night, Nyx, who made the stars retreat, was willing to let it hang high in the night, using the night as the canvas.
Then Pegasus spread his wings and returned to the Kingdom of Calydon with Atalanta and Nuoyan.
