Chapter 127: Leaving the island of Aegina
"Home?"
Achilles was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that last month was the New Year's Festival, and he had been away from home for more than a year.
Eakos nodded without denying it, "I'm going to introduce you to a master, you go to him to learn art, and you go home on the way." ”
Although Aeakus also taught Achilles, Aeakus was not his master.
"Isn't it good if you teach me?" Achilles said after a moment of confusion, he felt that Aeakos had taught him enough, and there was no need to change teachers at all.
"Achilles, I'm glad you said that, but I feel like you should change your teacher. ”
Aeakos smiled, turned his head to look at Endes, and said, "Achilles, this time I introduced you to a big man, you must be right to follow him." ”
Endeis was slapped by Aeakos's ass, and gave him an angry look, but he wasn't as angry as he was just now.
As for Achilles, he only felt a burst of amusement, and hearing this word from the mouth of Aeakos was simply out of place.
Although the power of the island of Aegina is weak, Aeakus is not famous by relying on power, he is the son of Zeus, and the king of Minos, who rules Crete, is a first-class existence.
The world knows how arrogant King Minos is, he dares to declare war in the face of Athens, and even the goddess Athena wants to give him face.
And Aeakos, too, although he has always been inconspicuous, is not a big man in his eyes even if he is of the level of Creon or Egos.
Thinking of this, Achilles couldn't help but wonder, could it be a certain god?
But even if it's a god, Achilles doesn't really need it.
First of all, the gods basically don't understand the cultivation methods of human beings, just look at Psamata, and secondly, even if the gods need to teach, Thetis is the goddess of the sea, and she is undoubtedly the most suitable.
Aeakos knew what he was thinking when he looked at Achilles' expression.
"Achilles, don't believe me, do you know Hercules? I told you before, right?"
"yes. ”
In fact, even if Aeacus doesn't say it, Achilles is also thunderous about this name.
Aeakos stroked his beard and smiled slightly, "Do you know who Hercules' master is?"
"His master is ......"
Achilles was suddenly stunned as he spoke, who was Hercules' master?
It's Charon!
Charon is a centaur of mysterious origin, and no one knows who his parents are, whether he has a wife or children, or what his strength is.
Since Zeus overthrew Cronus and Mount Olympus changed owners, Charon suddenly appeared on the land of Achaia.
He has been seen in the icy caves of Thrace in the north, on the reefs of the Aegean Sea in the East, and even on the island of Crete in the south.
No one knew where the mysterious centaur came from or whereabouts, but no one even the gods of Olympus had ever bothered him.
Later, he began to teach people to practice......
Achilles' somewhat agitated mood immediately calmed down, it was a fateful thing.
However, he seemed to remember that he had not gone to see Charon at this time, and that the original time might have been a few years later.
But it wasn't a big deal, and the thing he was most curious about now was why Aeakos knew Charon, and he had never heard of any intersection between the two.
"Achilles, I am going to introduce you to Hercules' teacher, Charon, who now lives in the Pyrvin Cave on Mount Pondath. It just happens to be not far from your house, so you take this opportunity to go back and have a look. ”
Achilles was curious: "Grandpa, how did you and that Charon meet?"
"Eh, it's rude, how can you say that to the elders?"
"Huh?"
Although it is true that Charon will become his elder in the future, it is obviously not now.
Aeakos stroked his beard and shook his head, "Charon is your grandmother's father, do you say it's your elder?"
Endeis said, "Yes, Achilles, I'll give you a letter later, and when you go to my father's place, help me bring it to him by the way." ”
Wait!
Achilles was stunned, a little delirious.
He was certain that Charon would become his master, but Endeis was actually the daughter of Charon?
The arrogant old man of Aeakos?
In terms of generation, what is the name of my grandmother's father?
Achilles was stunned for a long time, and couldn't figure out what to call it.
Endeius went upstairs and down again and handed the prepared letter to Achilles.
"Achilles, this letter is handed over to you, do you want to take it?"
Achilles came back to his senses, nodded, thought about it and couldn't help but ask, "Then when will I go back?"
"Early, I'll leave tomorrow. Aeakos took a drink and decided.
Aeakos has also recently received some news that Sekoli, which has just been founded for less than two years, seems to be about to go to war again.
The long-cherished enemy of Thrace from the north has invaded the territory of Selia several times in the past year, and the two sides have won and lost each other, which has led to the fierce flames of war.
In order for Achilles to return sooner, it is better to have his parents arrange for Achilles to be sent to Charon before the Thracian invasion.
Many of the sparsely populated countries in the land of Achaea are all soldiers, and when there is a war, as long as there is a man who can wield a weapon, he basically has to go to war.
Selili is the same, if he really starts fighting, it is estimated that no one will care about Achilles.
Mount Pondasi is relative to Thesalia, and it is said that it is not close, and it is said that it is not far away, but if you rely on Achilles as a child, you will definitely not be able to go.
......
Since Aeakos has decided to let Achilles go, he will certainly not procrastinate.
Early the next morning, Aeakos had Ikoas prepare a ship to Salamis Island, and he was only responsible for sending Achilles to Salamis Island.
When he was about to board the ship, Eudoros' coachman sent him to the dock to say goodbye to Achilles.
"Achilles, I don't have to lose the bet before. ”
"Bet?"
Achilles immediately remembered.
Last year, he made a bet with Odorus on who would reach the Warrior level first, and it turned out that Odorus has not yet reached that threshold.
In another two or three months, Eudoros would be about the age when Achilles became a warrior, and if he couldn't do it, he would have lost.
"Then you have to come on, Odorus. ”
