The part of the Mediterranean coast, represented by southern Europe and North Africa, Turkey and Syria, has an unusually large number of goddesses with names similar to Athena. There are Athena, Yatana, Yatena, Janata, Yasserata, Yasserata, Arte. Anna and the like.

The goddess of war, the goddess of serpents, the goddess of life, and so on.

Linguistic similarity, such as the pronunciation of names, is not stupid, and the same name will be widely disseminated and will be given similar names with local characteristics in various places.

In other words, Athena's prototype may not be what it is in mythology.

First of all, starting with Athena's birth, who is Athena's mother, and what exactly is Athena's relationship with Medusa.

In Greek mythology, Athena's mother was Metis, Zeus's first wife, the goddess of wisdom. However, the couple's marriage was not a happy thing. Metis was raped by Zeus, who was transformed into a fly, and as a result, became pregnant with Athena.

For Zeus, Metis was the object of his humiliation. The fact that she is said to be the wife of Zeus is also the result of being rewritten by later generations in order to cover up Zeus's cruelty. Gaia (Mother Earth) and Ouranos (Uranus, the Latin god of the sky, Gaia's son and Gaia's husband, one of the 12 Titans), who knew about Metis's pregnancy, prophesied that if they were born as boys, they would surpass Zeus.

Zeus, fearing the birth of a child, swallowed Metis from the beginning and buried her existence. Then, as the goddess of wisdom, her wisdom will also be gained by Zeus. However, Athena, who had already received the body of Metis, was born from the head of Zeus, who became her father.

In other words, Athena was born as a goddess at the same time as her mother Metis was destroyed, which is very important - in Greek, Metis means "wise". It is also the etymology of Medusa.

Metis and Medusa.

These two words have the same meaning. And it is the name of the goddess who has a deep relationship with Athena.

Metis, Medusa, Athena make up the Trinity.

Regardless of age or country, it is basically human beings who give names and myths to gods.

A powerful god who threatens and sometimes bestows favors on mankind.

In primitive times, they had no name.

Human knowledge indifferently found the posture of God in the vast sky and the great earth, fearing the storms and floods brought about by the wrath of God, and worshipping dangerous and powerful beasts as if they were the embodiment of God.

However, over the course of time, mankind has given God a name. Myths were made up for them.

For example, Iluvita, the creator of the earth. Hercules, the god of the battlefield. Artemis, the goddess of fertility.

For example, Ogun, the god of struggle and forge. At the same time, he is the god of rough warriors and the god of destruction, Tezcatripoca.

For example, wanderers chasing Takamagahara, where Japan's eight million gods live. Vishnu with twelve incarnations.

There are as many gods as the stars.

All were born at the hands of humans.

These rituals can be said to have been produced by lowly human beings in order to prevent the divine power of the gods from becoming too powerful.

The gods who get the name and the myth don't do anything beyond these two things. When we give favors to human beings, and when we receive something in return, we act according to our duties.

Therefore, people can be prepared for God's threats or blessings.

But. If there is a god who makes a name that goes beyond what He has been given and what the myth represents.

If there were gods who had returned to primitive times with fewer mythological constraints.

Such a god is called the "God of Disobedience."

They wander on the earth in opposition to the myths that humans have wove together. When wandering in the country of the people who have given their names, it is like the water flowing in the land without green.

One day, the "God of Disobedience" will bring disaster to the world in the future.

If the god of the sun had descended. Then the entire world will become extremely hot.

If the god of the sea descends, then the entire world will be swallowed up by the waves and sink to the bottom of the sea.

If the god of Hades descends, the plague will spread to every corner of the world, turning the world into a city of death.

If the God of Judgment had descended. Those who live here will be punished in a variety of ways.

If it exceeds a certain amount, it will have such an impact on the worldly realm, and the god of calamity who creates his own posture according to his own preferences is the "god of disobedience."

Athena fuses the Stone of Gorgon to restore her ancient form to her full body. The sky began to grow darker under the influence of her powerful divine power.

The bright stars fade away in the darkness, and as the darkness expands, darkness without light descends on the earth.

Every time the curtain widens for a minute, the light source on the ground disappears a little.

First of all, the street lamps and lights that illuminate the streets at night are gone.

Then there are human homes, companies, apartments, shops, liquor houses, neon lights, headlights of cars, and at the end of all, flashlights, even bean-sized light bulbs.

Make every artificial light source disappear.

When the fake sunlight disappears, the streets are filled with real darkness.

Even a few meters in front of you should be turned into an abyss of the night with no bottom in sight.

When the darkness began, the cars and bicycles in the lanes slowly stalled, not even a centimeter forward. The light of the electric lights that lit up the front was gone.

People who noticed the abnormality of their cars walked out of the driveway in confusion.

The people walking on the road, instinctively frightened, looked helplessly at the sky while staring at the darkness.

The lucky ones who came back from the office were stunned to lose all the light as soon as they stepped into their homes.

People who think that the light may not be restored lean their bodies on a certain place to dispel feelings of attachment and anxiety.

- Fear of the dark.

- Has a strong attachment to the light.

- The restlessness of human beings waiting for the light, timidity, abandonment and powerlessness.

Rome was in a state of complete paralysis.

Tracking down problems, big and small, all the lighting was lost.

All the cars were immobile, and the train had to stop.

It was just after nine o'clock in the evening.

In contrast to the crowded daytime, the people who appear at night are basically local residents who have returned from work.

In this situation got bogged down, and some people got angry. Some people uneasily observe the situation around them. There are even people who are in a panic.

Anger, turmoil, embarrassment, confusion, confusion –

The pressure of darkness without light is heavier than anything else, more terrible than anything else.

There is a lot of greenery around the city center, and the towering buildings exude the usual depressing light.

If the street lights are on, the neon lights of the big stores will also look even more dazzling.

Even when night comes, the surroundings should be very bright. But now, the darkness of the night has deepened. It's dark everywhere.

Only the half-moon shining in the sky remains, shining slightly on the earth.

Originally, the night was the object of human fear. The reason for forgetting this is because the electric light banishes the darkness. The fear of the night is the original instinct of human beings.

Athena, the god of disobedience, is the one who belongs to the earth and to the darkness.

The deep darkness that does not allow a ray of light to exist in the night of the world awakens. All that's needed afterwards is a suffocating smell of earth. Abundant life.

"The concubine sings praises, as the song of the goddess of the Trinity. Connecting the sky, the earth and the darkness, reincarnation and wisdom. The concubine sang the praise, the song of the degraded goddess, as the sigh of the defeated forbidden snake and its crusader queen. The concubine sang praises. The poetry of the goddess torn apart, and the humiliation of a loving mother who was humiliated by the supreme father. My name is Athena. Daughter of Zeus, guardian of Athens, eternal virgin. Though. The concubine was once the mother of the earth who nurtured life! Once the Lord of Hades, who ruled the darkness! Once the Queen of Wisdom, who was wise from above! The concubine swore that Athena would no longer be the ancient Athena! ”

Weave the spirit of words aloud.

It's like singing, it's like praying, it's like admiration.

As the chanting progresses. Athena's posture changed.

Stretching from the back, the hands and feet have become longer, and the figure of the cute girl has become a beautiful girl.

The young face also gradually disappeared.

Just look at the appearance. No matter how you look at it, they look like they are seventeen or eighteen years old. The clothes have also changed from modern clothes to antique white robes.

"Athena ——! of Disobedience"

Looking directly at the posture of the goddess at close range, Yang Xi had a smile on his face.

The presence here is the last descendant of Mother Earth.

The presence here is the Dark Dominator who leads the Dead and the Dark.

The existence here is the down-and-out queen who rules the heavens, the earth, and the darkness.

Athena, who retrieved the Stone of Gorgon, was bathed in the cold air emitted from Hades, which was the wind of death, and even human beings with strong spells and magic were eroded by this force of death for a while and a half.

However, Yang Xi and the feather-clothed fox stood in place and watched patiently from beginning to end, even if they were blown by the wind of death, they did not react.

Seeing this scene, a hint of understanding flashed in Athena's eyes.

Sure enough, the breath of death didn't work for him.

Fortunately, I didn't use my hands and feet when I kissed just now, otherwise I might not be able to fuse the Gorgon's Stone for a while.

"Whew~~ I'm sorry. I've just retrieved the strength of the ancient times, and now I can't control it proficiently. ”

Athena's voice rang out with a smile, and the spirit of her words was incomparable to the heaviness of the encounter.

Not only has my body grown, but even my voice has matured a lot.

"Congratulations, but what are you going to do now? Destroy the world? Or do you want to leave? ”

"I never thought about destroying the concubine body of the world, but I finally recovered my strength, wouldn't it be too boring to leave like this? The concubine wanted to play for a while. ”

Seeing that Athena looked at the feather-clothed fox beside Yang Xi, Yang Xi quietly blocked the front, "In this way, then let me play with you!" ”

Although the feather-clothed fox was not afraid of challenges, the smile on his face deepened when he saw Yang Xi care about himself so much. (To be continued......)
