Chapter Eighty-Four: Small Talk with Medea
Someone, someone who still didn't say their name in the end.
There is only one person who can make Medea vague with such a complicated attitude, her husband before her death, Iason, the man who made her give her a sincere heart and finally tore it apart.
In order for this man to escape safely, she did not hesitate to betray her family, kill her younger brother, and even split his brother's body.
In order to put the man on the throne, she used magic and trickery to kill the man's own uncle.
But in the end, these efforts did not exchange for growing old with the man he loved, in the tenth year of meeting him. This poor woman, who betrayed her family, is eventually betrayed by the man she loves, and the man empathizes and not only marries a new wife, but also expels herself and her two children.
As deep as love is, so much hate is.
Medea, who was already extremely emotional, finally fell into madness. She used her children to poison her rival and her father, and fearing that the children would be tormented by the enemy, she killed the two children with her own hands, and finally, in the angry roar of the negative man, covered the whole city with flames, and rode away in a dragon chariot.
This is the legend of the betrayal witch Medea. Because of the high popularity of Greek mythology, Shinji read it very early, and he didn't have any deep feelings at the time, he just thought that Iason was a bastard, and Medea was not a good person.
But when I actually met Medea and heard her talk about Iason, the words I had read inexplicably became vivid. Especially what Medea said in her despair.
"Of all the sane, spiritual creatures, we women are the most unfortunate. It is unfortunate that a woman does not marry when she is old, and if she wants to marry, she has to pay a lot of money to buy a dowry, only to find a master for herself, and worse, it is even more miserable to marry a bad guy. Because divorce is dishonorable for women, and we can't kick bad husbands out of the house. β
ββIn that era, what kind of pain did you go through to have such a profound understanding?
"Do you regret it?" Shinji asked a question that he wouldn't have asked under normal conditions.
Medea paused for a moment, and glanced at Shinji in a little surprise, but she didn't get angry, just exhaled slowly and decisively: "If you say it's to my parents and younger brother, there is." If it is for that person, there are no - there are many things that a woman is afraid of, but when she is bullied by her husband, there is nothing more vicious than her heart. β
This statement is extreme, but it is not entirely unreasonable. β
"So Shinji Makiri, you're so self-conscious, don't let the girls around you become the next me. β
"They won't be you, and I still have that confidence. β
"I hope so. β
"Uh, can I go to the kitchen and get something to eat?" Perhaps feeling that the atmosphere had improved, Shinji cautiously tested.
"Don't even think about it! If you don't want to eat, don't eat, you won't starve to death. Medea immediately turned her face and immediately walked out with the plastic bag.
"Don't be so ruthless. Shinji hurriedly smiled, "Such good men will be scared away." β
"Good man, do you say yourself?" Medea paused, turning half of her face full of sarcasm.
"Of course it's not me, but there are six billion people on the entire planet, and there will always be good men who have a good appetite for you. β
"Even if there were, those men probably wouldn't accept me as a poor woman. β
"Don't talk so dead. In modern times, the status of women has been greatly improved, and there are many historians who are complaining about you, don't be arrogant. When the Holy Grail War is over, you can walk around the world and you'll know if I'm true or false. "βIf you can meet Soichiro Katsuki, it will be a great joy for everyone.
"Well, I remember, I'll try it when I have the chance. Medea nodded thoughtfully, "However, this is your lunch, there is no need to discuss, and you are not allowed to be lazy, I will supervise you here until the Sakura and the others come back." β
"Okay, okay, it's all up to you, you have the final say. Shinji raised his hand in surrender, "But it's really boring to sit like this, why don't you take this opportunity to tell me about the Argo, you promised me last night." β
"Yes, being idle is also idle. Medea threw the plastic bag to Shinji and sat down in a chair herself, "What do you want to know?"
"Let's start with Tameow, no, it's Atalanta, as one of the few women on the Argo, you should have a good relationship. β
"It's her, well, I have a really good relationship with her, and we often comb each other's hair. β
As soon as she talked about this, Medea's tone was noticeably lighter.
"She's a very straightforward person, she does what she wants to do and says what she wants to say. And I like children very much, and I always have a lot of fun every time I play with them, like, well......"
"Like a big cat?" added Shinji thoughtfully.
"Yes, like a cat. Medea smiled, then looked at Shinji suspiciously, "How do you know that there is still the name just now? Do you know her?"
Shinji didn't hide it either: "There was an intersection, and she also participated in the Holy Grail War in which I participated with Artoria. I fought with her, I fought alongside her, and entrusted my daughter, not my own, but my adopted child to her care. You can guess her wishes. β
"A world where all the little ones are happy?"
"yes. β
"Sure enough, this is it...... She wanted all the children to be happy, but in the end she didn't get happiness, and her fate was so unfair. Medea said angrily, both for Atalanta and for herself. None of the women on the Argo seem to have a happy ending.
"Don't be in a hurry to be sad, let's not talk about it before she died, her second life was quite happy. After successfully surviving the Holy Grail War and getting a body, he should open an orphanage to adopt orphans with the support of his companions, and a desperate flower messenger to follow. β
"Flower Protector?"
"You probably know this man, and maybe you've seen it, Achilles, whose father, Peleus, was also a member of the Argo. β
As soon as she said that, Medea knew.
"It turned out to be him...... I remember that Peleus seemed to have admired Atalanta as well, but because he already had a wife, he never showed it. β
"Oh, there's something like that, tell me about it. Shen Er's eyes flashed, it can be regarded as waiting for this gossip.
"I can tell you, but you also have to tell me what happened between Atalanta and Achilles. "When it comes to gossip, Medea is better than Shinji, not to mention that this time it is about her friend.
"Deal, anyway, there is a lot of time, and it will be ...... until dark"
Before he finished speaking, the crystal wall in front of him suddenly began to emit a strong red light.
PS: Some of Medea's words come directly from Greek mythology, which is well documented.
PS2: There is a supplement in the FA animation.,Ta Meow helps Medea comb her hair.,The latest pig pita is also related to C's mother.,It's all poor people.,Alas......
PS3: I can't mention Pig Pita without mentioning her bond to the master, and there is a sentence that is really good - do you want to try to tame (tune) and subdue (teach) me. Tsk, the nature of Tameow, sure enough, blackening understands people's hearts, and understands people's hearts in both physical and psychological senses.
