"One day?"

Hekate's words fell, and there was a noticeable silence in the room for a moment. Leto looked at the goddess in the red dress in front of him, from hesitation to hesitation, while Selene looked at the black-robed goddess opposite and finally understood her identity.

The sister of the star goddess Astria, the Titan goddess Leto. Over the years, Selene has driven through the sky on the silver chariot of the moon, and has seen the goddess and the god-king secretly meet in the darkness of night more than once, and the recent encounter with the other is no secret.

After all, the ecliptic and white realms are the core of the starry sky, and when Leto went to the abode of the Titan god Koos, he could not avoid the sight of the moon goddess. So looking at this scene, Selene directly closed his mouth, intending to make a quiet pendant.

Although the reason why the two of them came here was because of Selene's secret induction, now, she felt that it was better to let Hekate handle the matter herself.

"You're that child of Asteria?"

"At the turn of the eras, that [Demon Net Goddess] turned out to be really you?"

Leto was a little incredulous, but he had to believe it, because the similar blood aura and unique power of the person in front of him revealed the identity of the other party. No god has ever been 'born' twice, and Leto has never been sure that the god who once again announced his birth to the world is his sister's expelled daughter, but now, this is the reality.

"Why are you stopping me, you are also a member of the Protoss, this mortal dares to ignore my orders, shouldn't I punish him for his rudeness?"

Recognizing the comer, Leto's momentum eased slightly, but her attitude towards the mortal who had just escaped the catastrophe remained the same.

"Protoss. Do you mean me? ”

Raising an eyebrow, Hekate's mouth still had a smile on his lips.

"It seems like there is such a thing, once I was also a Titan deity, but like our kinship, it probably only lasted a day?"

All that had happened on Mount Odils in the past, Hekate had watched from the sidelines under the reproduction of the slate. Leto was not qualified to attend the discussion that would determine her fate, but the attitude of the goddess was unmistakable.

When she was exiled to the earth, and even when she quietly disappeared into the human tribes, the humans at that time pleaded guilty for it in the sacrifice to the gods, but the result was obvious, and no god even looked at it, including the goddess Ryushi and Leto. It's like being forgotten, or rather, no one wants to think of such a symbol of 'misfortune'.

Of course, Hekate didn't resent them much, after all, Kaos's lack of affection for the gods was not an exception, and she didn't see each other as relatives at most. Compared to her titular father and grandmother, it was the goddess of the magic net who really remembered it vividly.

Throwing into the abyss, once and for all, and not even being able to do it is a pity for them. Thinking of this, Hekate couldn't help but smile again.

Unfortunately, she has never been able to find the trace of Perseus, the god of material destruction. It stands to reason that he, a god of extraordinary power, has a kinship with the god of meteorology, Cleos, and should not have disappeared like this.

The goddess of the web was thinking, and on the other side of her, Leto had already sensed the indifference under Hecate's smile. It's just that the previous decision did come from the previous generation of God King and his own parent god, and if the other party is actually a true god, then it is understandable to be dissatisfied with this.

It was just an accident, Hekate, a god who was never immortal, but not even a god of the region, and never appeared after you. Maybe your natural ministry was obscured, or maybe for some reason it didn't show up, and it was just a miscalculation. ”

"You have become a true god, and the whereabouts of Kronos, who expelled you from the Titans, are unknown. The new King of the Gods has recognized your status, and you deserve to stand with the gods. ”

"And then, like you, have no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth in front of Hera, but to show your majesty in front of mortals?"

"You really should thank me, otherwise you will soon find out that you can't be majestic in front of mortals."

With an unceremonious taunt, Hekate pulled Selene beside him. It's obviously because of her that she's here, how can she shrink back now.

"Since it's you, it's easy to do. You've been made to run away by Hera, and you're even pregnant with that golden retriever—"

With a light snort, Hekat continued:

"But I can solve the difficulties you encounter, but you also have to promise me three conditions."

"—on what terms?"

The spirit lifted, and the anger that had just been aroused by Hecate's words instantly subsided again. What Leto wants to do most now is to solve the divine power of the queen of Hera and give birth to her god-king children smoothly.

For this, she has nothing that she cannot give.

"Is it on her body what you sensed?"

Without an immediate reply, Hekate turned to Selene to ask.

"I don't know, maybe, it's not a 'thing'?"

Somewhat confused, Selene glanced at the black-robed goddess in the distance again. She did feel the existence of something very closely related to her before, but when she really stood here, the Moon Goddess was a little suspicious.

Because she sensed that the object of this connection seemed to be Leto himself.

"Well, whatever it is."

Nodding, Hekat said to Leto:

"You have something about the moon, and although I don't know what it is, I need it; I also want to know all the news about Persese, and tell me everything you know; In the end, this is the first and last thing I did for you, and from then on, we were both clear. ”

"What's the two?"

The first two conditions can be understood by Leto. The priesthood of the gods sometimes has some unexpected inductions, maybe they do have something related to the moon, but they don't notice the items, since the other party wants it, then give it to her. As for Perseth's whereabouts, it was Hecate's 'father', and although it seemed that neither of them recognized the connection, Leto had no intention of hiding his whereabouts for the other. What's more, she didn't know the specific whereabouts of Persese very well.

But on the last condition, did Hekate ever owe her anything?

You don't need to know, you just need to be clear, and we'll be clear."

After a pause, Hekat said with a smile.

"Okay, I promise you."

Nodding, Leto didn't dwell on these other things.

"With Styx as proof, as long as you can free me from Hera's power, then I will grant you three requests."

Nodding in agreement, Stix's strength flashed as Leto's words fell. And on the other side of her, looking at the goddess's decision without hesitation, Hekate's smile turned a little colder.

Sure enough, just as she thought, although the swaddling clothes that once wrapped the baby girl falling from the sacred mountain were transformed by the divine power of the goddess of conservation, it was never the love of relatives, it was just the instinctive reaction of the other party after delivering her sister.

But it's good that in the future, in this world, whether it is the starry sky or the earth, the ocean or the abyss, there will be no more 'relatives' worthy of her scruples. She came into this world alone, so she went down alone.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, feeling her hand being grasped, Hecate glanced at Selene beside her, but she just smiled and shook her head at the worried gaze of the other party.

"I'm fine, Selene, just remembering some of the past."

"Let's go, it's not difficult to break Hera's power, the power from the Divine Court can naturally be solved by the Divine Court itself."

Waving, Hekat looked at the human settlement not far away.

"But that doesn't mean you're safe. Unless you can get Zeus to take your place, what you've experienced in the past few years may just be the beginning. ”

······

Great Plains of Delphi.

Leto's soon-to-be-born child has touched the fate of more than one deity, and in fact, it is not only the moon goddess and the spirit world who are aware of them.

The escapist Mother of Light is one of them, but Thea has long seen the simple logic of the laws of reality. He did not allow too powerful divine power to be enriched into an unfettered being, so in the face of the doomed division of the priesthood, the goddess looked very open.

The other one is the golden apple tree, which has only instinct but no thinking.

Just as the real sun had little to do with Leto's son in the first place, the goddess's other child never included the moon in his original theocracy. She is the lord of the wilderness, the protector of the forest, the symbol of hunting, the goddess holding the golden bow, and one of the symbols of the pure maiden, so at this moment, the true ancestor of [Plant] was also affected in the dark.

Perhaps it was stimulated, and with it, in Moanda's gaze, the fruit that was still a little bit almost perfected little by little at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Two accidents have made this fruit, which the Nymph expected to take 300 years to ripen, close to perfection. Maybe today, maybe tomorrow, this divine fruit will ripen and turn into the supreme creation in this world, so that an acquired life can share the immortal divine power.

"Too fast"

Some excited, some hesitant. The voice of the ancient snake's bewitchment seemed to still echo in his ears, and now, Mo Anda could no longer escape. She needs to face the impending reality that if she does make this step, Mother Earth is destined to see her as a mortal enemy.

Moanda knows Gaia, and she's not someone who weighs the pros and cons. When she woke up, when she realized that her maid had betrayed her, when she found that the golden apple had left her, and even the [Vial of Life] had completely become someone else's sacred object, no one could have predicted what the enraged Earth Mother would do.

The laws of this world can't protect her, and even if she hides in the human world, Moanda believes that even if she needs to sleep for another thousand years, Gaia will never let her go because of these costs, unless she has a way to make her old master realize that she can't help this betrayed elf.

So for Mo Anda at this moment, she must find a backer for herself.

"That day happened to be the time of the arrival of the new God King. Whether it's him or not, I can go and see it then. The first two generations of god kings were not afraid of the Earth Mother, so he should be able to do the same, right? ”

"If so, then since he dares me to do such a thing, he must be ready to fight against Mother Earth. If not, then I'll have to go and meet the other primordial gods. ”

Making a decision silently, Moanda knew that no matter what, there was no turning back.

This particular fruit was already hanging here, and the result was the same for her to eat or not to eat. What's more, ask yourself, Mo Anda knows very well that even if she lets herself choose again, she will not hesitate to make the same choice.

There is only a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, even if she becomes a pawn against Gaia, she has to go to the table first to be qualified to see what the chessboard looks like.

"It's coming."

"What's coming soon?"

On the other side of the golden apple orchard, Vader looked curiously at his friend not far away, who had been chattering like this in recent decades.

"I mean the fruit of the golden apple tree."

Pursing her lips, Moanda replied directly. She knew that in the eyes of others, the fruit was no different from a normal golden apple.

Sure enough, Vader, who was on the side, listened to the explanation and only nodded in agreement. I have to say that this divine fruit that has been conceived since the turn of the epoch has indeed grown faster.

"That's right, it's strange, it used to take hundreds of years to mature one, but this one grows so fast."

Raising her head and listening to the rustling of the wind through the golden leaves, the Nymph was as carefree as ever.

"yes, Vader, maybe that's what it's meant to be."

Smiling, Moanda turned. At the end of the line of sight, a dark shadow obscured everything, and under the high mountains was the Great Temple of Delphi.

The Parnassus Mountains, the place where the gods descended not so long ago. In the old days, any deity who came close to Delphi would have come to see Mother Earth and show respect for this Mother Goddess, but with Mother Earth sleeping, it was as if it had been forgotten and could no longer attract the attention of any god.

This is normal, even if she is the handmaiden of Mother Earth, she is only valuable because of God. Like the humans who died in the Great Flood not long ago, although Moanda had never even seen them, she could guess the cause of their death.

It's nothing more than worthless, so God wants to replace it, that's all.

"Vader."

"Huh?"

Turning sideways slightly, Vader looked at his friend beside him suspiciously.

"Soon, when they look at me again, it's no longer because of someone else."

With a calm face, at this moment, Nymph recalled the day she remembered the most. The god queen greeted each other, and the god king thanked him, although it was not because of her, but when the day was over, a trace of delusion was born in Mo Anda's heart.

One day, she will also be like Mother Earth, using a messenger and a golden apple to stir up the whole world.

'It's coming. ’

Turning away from the Golden Apple Orchard, Moanda headed in the direction of the Oracle Place.

'There should be one of mine in the heavenly place.' ’
