Chapter Introduction: This chapter takes place during the period when Luna and Alice disappeared, and mainly tells the ending of Hera, a generation of god-kings.

Feature:

Hera walked from the house to the toolbox in the outer room, Hera had just turned sixty-second a few days ago, and the years had made her gray, but it was useless to bend her waist and flower her eyes, Hera carefully took out a pair of pruning shears and a long wooden box, and walked through the garden to the nearest passion fruit stand.

Hera searched for her twelve-year-old daughter, Valla, but was nowhere to be found. But she didn't feel too worried, Varla was a sensible child, no problem.

But when she was halfway there, a cry came from the nearby bushes: it was Valla's silver bell-like laughter, and the little one was ambushing her mother!

"Okay, Valla, don't let mom look for you everywhere!" Hera said with a smile.

But the little one was obviously smiling even more. When she got up from the bushes, Hera couldn't help but laugh too.

But it was at this moment that someone on the road caught her attention. Hera looked up and saw two strangely dressed, even strangely dressed, people walking in the distance. She was facing away from the sun, which made Hera unable to make out the man's face. She raised her hand to shade out the sun, but when she looked again, the two men were gone.

Hera wiped her eyes, then continued towards the passion fruit stand.

Although it was a little later than scheduled, she still took care of her passion fruit. Although passion fruit didn't need to be cared for so carefully, she stopped to look at it carefully, carefully plucked one and played with it in her hand. She carefully peeled off the passion fruit's shell and watched carefully as the juice overflowed. It seemed to be fine, she smiled with satisfaction, put the fruit in her mouth, then wiped the juice off her hands and went back to work.

A breeze blew through the passion fruit trellises, rustling them. She took a deep breath, enjoying the warm sunshine, and couldn't help but feel tired.

At this time, she suddenly felt the back of her scalp faintly explode.

So Hera quickly opened her eyes and quickly ran towards the edge of the passion fruit stand, staring intently in the direction of the mansion. Soon she spotted Varla talking to the two fancy dresses she had seen earlier. The armor that one of them was wearing turned out to be!

Hera hurriedly ran towards them, holding her pruning shears in her hands as if she were holding a dagger. She was screaming and running with all her might, which made her pant and her chest ached, but how could she be in the mood to care about it now?

And right in front of her, the man suddenly leaned down towards her daughter.

"Get out of her!" Hera shouted.

The man heard the shout and turned her head, but she still didn't lift up. At the same time, Valla held up something, which was clearly given to her by the man.

Hera was about to run to them, and the man straightened up, but still with his head down, and Hera threw her pruning shears like a dart, but it flew only a short distance before falling limply to the ground.

"Varla! Go back to the house! Hera shouted in a hurry.

And Valla looked puzzled: "But mom and dad...... They're good people. ”

Hera stood between her daughter and the stranger, and she grabbed the fellow by the collar, and the stranger in front of her raised his head, a silver-haired girl, and the person standing on the other side also pulled down the brim, which was a dark-haired girl. So Hera put her down and took a step back.

Val stretched out her hand, and in her hand was a small medallion with a wolf's head emblazoned on it.

The silver-haired girl and the black-haired girl stood motionless, while Hera was still looking at her nervously, gasping for breath, but her mind was spinning rapidly.

At this time, Hera discovered that the silver-haired girl had something on her waist that she was all too familiar with.

Or her own thing, yes, it's Hippolyta's belt of the god of war.

The silver-haired girl pulled down her hood, and Hera was surprised to find that the girl looked like she had been in her youth, and of course she had silver hair.

"Hello, Lady Hera," the silver-haired girl began, "my name is Alice, this is Luna, and we come from far away. ”

Hera somewhat understood who the child was, she glanced at the saber on Alice's waist, she turned to take Valla's hand, "Come in with me." She said.

Later in the evening, Hera's husband Laos returned home, so Alice looked out the window, Hera, Luna, and Laos, and the three of them chatted in the dining room. Varla and Tira huddled curiously in the stairwell to watch the guest, and Hera, though delighted by the two unexpected guests, still had a poker expression on her face.

"I don't know what to say, my friends," Hera said, "I'm sorry. ”

Hearing this, Alice returned to her seat, and Luna didn't say anything, she just stayed there calmly and didn't show any displeasure.

"I'm sorry, but I really can't help you," Hera said, "I don't want to be involved. ”

Alice looked up and looked into Hera's eyes, "I just want to know." ”

"Know what?"

"Know how to lead and how to organize."

Hera sighed, she was a little angry, "No. For me, it's all over," she paused, "and now, I think you guys should leave." ”

"Hera, think again!" "Alice and Luna have come here from a long distance," Raos retorted, turning to the guest, "uh...... That's how your name is pronounced, right? ”

Luna nodded, and Alice didn't speak.

"Would you like to stay for dinner?"

Hera glanced at her wife, then turned to study the stove in front of her.

Alice then opened her mouth, "Thank you." ”

"Very well," laughed Laos, "and we've got beds for you, so you can stay here for as long as you like!" ”

Hera couldn't help but "snort", but she didn't say anything. Raos went to the kitchen to prepare dinner, and Hera looked back at the two guests again, Luna sat quietly, and Alice looked at the room very calmly.

"I'll be back by night." Hera admonished her in a rather unfriendly voice, and walked out angrily, without any scruples or politeness. Alice watched her leave quietly and gave a subtle smile.

As soon as she left the house, Hera plunged headlong into her passion fruit orchard.

Hera walked into the children's dormitories and looked at their sleeping faces by candlelight. She gently locked the window, then sat on the edge of Valla's bed, looking lovingly at her children. They were sleeping soundly, like little angels.

Suddenly, Laos walked in with a candle pushing the door, and she smiled at Hera, then sat down at the head of Tira's bed.

Hera didn't say a word.

"Are you alright?" Laos asked, a little uneasy.

Hera looked at her child again, and then fell into deep thought. "I can't seem to leave my past behind......" she muttered to herself, then turned to her husband, "I woke up too late, I knew I didn't have time to do anything, but right now, I was struggling with not having time to do things......"

Laos's eyes were full of pity, but he was perfectly able to understand his wife.

At this moment, there was a slight creak from the ceiling, and they immediately looked up.

"What is she doing on the roof?" Hera knew exactly who was making the noise.

"Let her go." Laos said.

Alice is standing on the red tiles of the roof near the chimney, and Luna is asleep under the covers. Alice sat quietly on the ground with her sword in her hand, resting her sword on her knees, relaxing herself like an ordinary person, silently watching the moonlit garden, letting the breeze blow in her ears.

Although the weather was gray the next day, Hera walked out of the mansion early. She glanced at the roof, and the window of the room was open, but she was nowhere to be found.

Hera called out Alice's name several times, but received no response.

So Hera called her neighbors and went to take care of passion fruit.

This year's spring and summer weather was very pleasant, and the passion fruit was growing very well, and it seems that she can expect a very good harvest. The passion fruit veraison is very smooth, but it also attracts insects. So she had to check them again and again before picking them.

After instructing the foreman, Hera hurried back to the mansion, and although she was suspicious of the prayer, when she entered the mansion, there was no one inside. But now her stomach was rumbling, and she had to go into her room.

She paused for a moment at the door, and someone opened it. She slipped into the room and found Alice standing in front of her messy desk, reaching through her manuscript.

Hera was furious: "What do you think you are doing? Get out! ”

She hurriedly put down the bundle of manuscripts in her hand, and then looked at her with a calm face, "It's the wind...... It blew the door open. ”

"Get out!"

Alice hurriedly walked out of the room. Hera hurried over to the table and set her hands on the manuscript, but one of it caught her attention, and she picked it up and read it. After reading the paper, she sat heavily in her chair and stared blankly out the window.

Alice walked into the garden, and she was looking at Hera, as if waiting for her reaction.

She let out a long sigh. So, after a few minutes of hesitation, she went downstairs and walked towards Alice.

Alice was sitting on a low stone wall when Hera walked up to her and coughed dryly in the cool October breeze.

Alice turned, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. ”

"yes," Hera paused, "I think you should leave, too." ”

Alice sat in silence for a while, and then suddenly recited without warning: "My name is Hera Kleus, when I was young, I used to have light family affection, but I didn't know what it meant, I used to have friendship, but I didn't know how much it was worth, I had love, but I didn't know how to enjoy it, time has passed, and now I slowly understand the connotation." She paused for a moment and then sighed, "What a superb life, you have experienced it all." ”

Hera was taken aback, and she reflexively stared at Alice.

"I just want to know, just like you," Alice continued, "how to save the world from fire." ”

Hera's eyes became friendly, "I've done a lot of wrong things, Alice, and I know that someday someone will find me or my family," she paused, "Do you understand?" That's why I have to be careful. ”

Alice nodded, and Hera felt her apology, Hera's gaze turned to the passion fruit orchard: "I should have hired some people to take care of my farm, but ......"

Hera's voice faded, and Alice tilted her head to listen to her words.

"Let's go inside." Hera beckoned and said, "Let's go get something to eat." ”

So, Alice climbed off the wall and followed Hera back to the mansion.
