Between the eyes of Artemis and Carette, who had turned around, their faces also revealed a slight change, the expression of their eyes looked quite embarrassed, and the sluggish atmosphere was mixed with a bit of disappointment.

"Card... Carreta ...... You're here......"

"Well, Bai Xiu was released today, why didn't I come to take a look? When I was on a mission in the human world, he helped me too much. ”

Karete's expression was faint, keeping the original plainness and quietness very well. Her gaze fell, and she noticed that Artimis was dragging a carved gold plate in both hands, containing bottles and jars of various colors.

Karette's answer quickly eased the inexplicable complicated expression on Artimis's face, she no longer looked at her, but hurried to Bai Xiu in three steps and two steps, Dai frowned slightly and looked at him anxiously, and the worried emotion was also constantly asking:

"Bai Xiu, how are you! You're coughing violently again! Don't be afraid! I asked for a lot of cherished potions from Hermis, and with my spell conditioning, I believe that your divine power source will definitely return to its former strength!"

"Thank you, Goddess Artemis......" Pasiu smiled at her with a grateful smile.

"Oh, you and I don't have to be polite!"

Artemis stared at him and smiled, a blush of happiness on his cheeks.

Kareta stood beside them, silently watching their expressions without interjecting a word.

Finally, Bai Xiu noticed her unusual quietness, so he turned his face to her and said:

"During the days of torture in the Tianshui Cold Pool, it was the goddess Artimis who always cared for me. If it weren't for the fact that she used her power to regularly absorb the freezing air of the cold water, I'm afraid my divine power source would have been eroded even more severely......"

“...... I'm sorry I made you suffer. ”

Karete's bright blue eyes stared at Bai Xiujun's white and slender face motionlessly, and only after a while did she speak to him slowly.

"You and me...... You don't have to say that......"

Bai Xiu's face changed slightly when he heard this, and the strength of his brows and eyes wide was clearly expressed. Then, like a slight wave speeding across the lake, his expression returned to calm and grace, and he could no longer find the abnormality just now.

Bai Xiu realized that he had said the wrong thing.

The purpose of what he said just now was simple, just to explain that his relationship with Artemis was not what she thought, but it backfired, and in the end, she had other misunderstandings.

Indeed, the Carette in front of her is no longer the innocent girl she used to be, and has her own understanding and ideas about some things.

In her mind, maybe she didn't care about his relationship with Artemis!

Bai Xiu thought extremely coldly in his heart.

Perhaps, whether it is Artimis or any other goddess, she will not care if anyone has the idea of falling in love with me...... It's just because I'm not the love of her heart at all-

Only then did Bai Xiu feel how weak and redundant his explanation just now was.

Although Bai Xiu's heart was tingling, his demeanor did not bring out the slightest pain and displeasure, and he still maintained the freedom and freedom of a man.

"That...... Tomorrow's ball, Carette will be there, right?"

Artimis on the side suddenly asked Karete a question, perhaps she was also uncomfortable with the cold scene in front of her, so she deliberately squeezed herself between Kareta and Pasiu.

"Hmm..."

Carreta twisted her face slightly, her eyes locked on Artimis, who was a little embarrassed, and responded safely:

"I will attend, and as a messenger of the goddess Venus, I will naturally follow her side. ”

"Oh..."

Artemis nodded, echoing the obvious drop of several degrees. Then, she squirmed her two delicate lips and wanted to say something, but because she couldn't find a suitable topic for a while, she finally had to shut up.

“...... Let's talk, there is still something in my palace, so I will leave first. ”

Carette looked away from Artimis' face and looked at Percius twice.

Artemis's arrival made her feel that it was a bit inopportune for her to choose to visit Pacius at this time. So, as she spoke, she was about to leave, and Bai Xiu's reluctant voice sounded behind her:

"Kareta, my current status is rather special, and I can't attend the Protoss' Easter ball......"

She stopped her impatient steps and listened patiently:

"In the future, I won't be too busy, I have a lot of time to rest...... If you're free... Come and see ......"

“...... Okay, I'll be coming! Take care. ”

Carette tried her best to keep her emotions in check, trying not to let her voice get too out of shape. Still, the last sentence made his voice tremble.

Since the beginning of the god generation~, she and Bai Xiu and Kamod are recognized as the "iron triangle" in the clan, and the affection of combining blood and friendship makes them all feel that their relationship with each other seems to be closer than their relatives and closer than their friends, so they have always thought that they will never be separated from each other, until they are reborn and accept the task of finding the Athena gem in the human world......

Thinking of the past, and thinking of the tragic situation of herself and Bai Xiu now, Kareta could no longer suppress the sadness in her heart, and strode towards the outside of the palace, she wanted to leave Bai Xiu's palace before her tears fell.

In the silent palace, Bai Xiu watched the back that was gradually fading away and getting smaller, and he didn't want to withdraw his eyes for a long time. Beside him, Artemis hung his head lonely, looking at the tray of medicine jars between his hands, his eyes flashing, and he turned out a wave of sadness......

——

On the evening of Easter, the ball kicked off on time.

Once upon a time, such a ball was held annually on the sacred mountain of Olympus, mainly to celebrate the year of the harvest and to enjoy the offerings of mankind. And this time, because it was reborn in the modern human world after spanning thousands of years, the scene was even more grand.

According to the old rules of the Protoss, the ball was still held in the main hall on the first floor of Zeus's palace. As with the gods, there is no shortage of exquisite food and delicious wines, as well as a variety of rich and luxurious decorative items. It's just that compared with the god generation, these now have a few more layers of modern material civilization, and they everywhere show the arrival of a new era.

Zeus sat on the throne of the main god at the highest point of the main hall, quietly turning his deep eyes, his sharp gaze frequently wandering all over the hall, looking at those exquisite and novel objects and the expressions of the gods frowning slightly, and he didn't say a word until a voice came into his ear drums:

"Venus has arrived—"

It was the loud voice of the guards outside the temple.

Zeus hurriedly looked away, and saw Venus, the goddess of love, in costume, walking towards him with a charming smile, followed by her ambassador, Carret.

"Great God, Queen of Heaven, I'm sorry I'm a little late......"

Venus stopped in front of the high stairs, and Carette followed, stopping at her mistress's side.

According to the rules, the gods who come to the temple must first greet the leaders of the gods.

"Why, the time is just right. ”

Zeus raised the corners of his lips and responded to Venus with a light smile, his eyes quietly turned to Carret, who was next to her.

Unfortunately, Carette had been looking down on her face since she had just left her luggage.

She was wearing a graceful and beautiful light blue tunic dress, neatly draped in long blond hair, and a little glittering jeweled hairpin on her sideburns.

Zeus's heart seemed to be stirred by something at this moment, and there was something very strange. He couldn't help but move slightly, leaning back on the golden chair, his eyes continuing to focus on Karet.

"This year's party is so lively, and it must have taken a lot of thought into the concept and decoration. You've worked so hard for us Titans!"

“......”

He didn't seem to hear Venus's flattery.

“...... Hehe, what's the point! We just did what we did. ”

Hera, the goddess of blessings sitting next to Zeus, noticed her husband's rudeness, and after waiting for two seconds, she quickly took the conversation, forced out a few smiles and talked to Venus:

"This year is extraordinary, the whole race is revived, and everyone has run to the human world because of Athena's affairs not long ago, so it's right to treat you, hehe...... Venus, you're welcome, just have fun!"

"Okay! we ......."

Hera didn't listen to what Venus was saying at all, and she focused her eyes entirely on Karete, her eyes unabashedly loose and disdainful. Now she has completely figured out what the thing that made her husband fugue!

“...！”

Hera's whole body shook suddenly, and it felt like she suddenly stepped into the air while striding forward, and her whole body fell into the endless abyss, surrounded by surprise and helplessness.

Hera sat down in her golden chair in a daze, her gaze at Kareta tightening and tightening, not at all careless, but more like two sharp knives pressing at her, eager to rip off her flesh.

This eyebrow, this nose bridge, and this figure and clothing preferences, it's too similar... It's too much like... Except for the color of the hair, it's simply carved out of a mold-

Hera's gaze kept moving up and down Carette Zhou, and her inner world was constantly moving.

She seemed to hear the sound of the "bubbling" waves again, and the goddess of such beauty that she hated was only graceful among the silver grains of sand, dancing in the white moonlight,

The posture is light and graceful......

Suddenly, Hera gritted her silver teeth and her straight eyes glowed with vicious light.

Sure enough, Zeus was still thinking about the goddess, the goddess I hated so much! Carret, the daughter of the goddess, could never live in this world—
