Xingyue Greece, I Really Don't Want to Be a Hero! Chapter 168
Soon after, Jason and Cerberus came to the temple of Hades, the king of the underworld. During the flight, Jason also briefly told Cerberus about his situation.
But now because of the recent wedding, Jason has become an existence known to everyone in the underworld.
Therefore, in the face of Jason's arrival, fairy nymphs immediately went in to announce and come to receive him.
And the Nymph Fairy who came to receive Jason secretly asked Jason if he had any more cheongsams or maid outfits. After the experience at the last wedding, they still want to wear them.
Because they found that when they put on those two sets of clothes, the men around them looked at them differently...
"Does Cerberus want to wear it?"
"What?"
"Maid's outfit or cheongsam."
Jason pretended to be careless and said to Cerberus who was very similar to Hecate, who looked like Hecate in loli form.
"Why am I wearing those clothes?"
Cerberus looked puzzled.
"looks good."
"Not interested in."
"...ten honey cakes a day!"
"Deal!" Cerberus replied quickly, while Jason was secretly delighted.
However, he warned himself that he must wait for Cerberus to go to the ground before executing it. Otherwise, if Hecate sees her, she will definitely guess what Jason is really thinking, and then she will be caught and thrown into the dark room Flatten the inside.
Not long after Jason and Cerberus made a secret deal, Persephone, Queen of the Underworld, came over under the leadership of Nymph Fairy.
"Jason...Huh?"
Sensing Jason's aura, Persephone, who was slightly stunned, came to him, circled around Jason a few times, and after understanding what was going on, she held Jason's arm next to Jason, He smiled and said: "It seems that little Jason is now my cute little brother who will not choose anything!"
"...Demeter gave you blood?"
Hades, who also came afterward, looked at Jason in front of him, and told the truth with a little surprise.
After seeing Jason nodding, Hades thought for a while before continuing: "Alright... I thought it was Athena or Hecate who gave you my blood, but Demeter is also good.
With her blood and inherited her power, you are equivalent to controlling part of the priesthood of life, and now you even have the strength to pull the bow of the God of Light and shoot the arrow of the Moon God alone! "
It can make the land fertile, the plants luxuriant, and the grains plentiful, or it can make the earth wither, everything wither, and no grass grow.
In other words, Jason can give life force to others, and at the same time, he can collect life force and use it on himself.
As long as it is not in the desert, Jason, who was already difficult to die, has become even more difficult to die now.
"No, before praying to the great gods, I will not shoot the arrows given to me by the moon god Artemis with the bow given to me by Lord Apollo."
Even though he knew in his heart that Hades was just making an analogy, Jason still gave an answer cautiously.
"And...brother-in-law Hades, sister Persephone, I'm very sorry!"
For Jason's sudden apology, Hades and Persephone were stunned for a while, but soon they reacted.
So after a while, Hades brought Jason and Cerberus to a dark room.
Then in that room, Jason saw two mortals who were chained to the wall and guarded and whipped by the guards.
"Master Pluto, Lord Hercules!"
When the guards saw Hades, the king of the underworld, and the masked hero in white, they immediately greeted him respectfully.
As for Cerberus who turned into a loli, few people really know her.
"Hercules...?"
Tied to the wall, the dying blond man raised his head with difficulty, and looked at the so-called Hercules.
Then he saw that Hercules in front of him was not tall at all, and when he was in a daze, he saw the iconic white clothes again, and immediately realized who the person in front of him was!
"Junior Brother...is that you?"
Theseus said, speaking with anticipation and shame.
"You go out first."
Hades waved his hand and let all the torturers in the room go out first.
Then he said to Jason: "Do you know them?"
"This is my senior brother." Jason took off his mask, pointed at Theseus, then looked at another person hanging beside him, shook his head and said, "I don't know the other person...Hadi Brother-in-law Si, I will give you a satisfactory answer."
Hades nodded slightly upon hearing this, then turned around and left here very relieved.
After Hades left, Jason came to Theseus and said to Theseus with sharp eyes: "Brother Theseus, please explain to me what's going on...I'll send the invitation to You, because of my trust in you.
But obviously, you've shamed me. "
"Sorry, Junior Brother Jason...but the main purpose of my coming to the underworld this time is not because of the goddess Persephone, but to see you for you."
"see me?"
Jason froze for a moment, then looked at Cerberus.
Cerberus shook his head at Jason, saying that Theseus was not lying.
"What's going on?" Jason asked with a puzzled frown.
"The last time you came here and gave me the invitation, I remember telling you, Brother Jason, that I probably won't be able to come because I'm about to go to Crete and enter the labyrinth of Minos."
Jason nodded slightly. He had indeed heard Theseus say this, so when the two dogs mentioned that human beings came with invitations, Jason immediately thought of Theseus. At that time, only he Not present.
"But just as I was about to go to the labyrinth of Minos, crack the labyrinth of Minos, and kill the monsters inside, I heard that a hero rushed over before me..."
Jason looked extremely weak when he saw Theseus speak intermittently.
After hesitating for a while, he finally couldn't bear it and put his hands on his body. The influx of vitality made Theseus gradually glow.
Then Jason ignored Theseus' surprise, and asked questioningly: "A hero?...Who is it?"
"The huntress who just left from where Sisyphus pushed the boulder, the heroine Atalanta who participated in the hunt of the Calydonian boar."
After Theseus finished speaking, he paused slightly, then looked at the stunned Jason, and said, "I came to the underworld this time mainly to meet you and tell you about this...I'm hearing about this At that time, it was said that she was about to enter the maze in order to save the children who were about to be sacrificed to the monsters in the maze."
"Now, she should have gone in... Sorry, junior brother, I didn't stop her for you."
"Wait, wait!" Jason called Theseus and said in confusion, "Why did you come to the underworld to look for me because of Atalanta?"
"Hey, because she's not your woman?"
Theseus looked very surprised and said to Jason: "I heard Hercules and Meleager say that!"
Jason was speechless for a while, and sorted out his thoughts for a while.
"No wonder I didn't find her at the beginning, and ran so far..."
Muttering, Jason looked at Cerberus.
Cerberus nodded again, indicating that Theseus was telling the truth.
At this point, Jason's attitude towards Theseus finally eased down.
"Then senior brother, you are explaining to me about sister Persephone, Queen of the Underworld..."
Just after Jason finished speaking, the person who had been hanging silently by the side suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Now the whole world is saying that Persephone is the most beautiful goddess... On that day, she was wearing the most beautiful wedding dress in the world, surpassing any goddess in the world.
I know about the invitation, I begged Theseus to let me come, and I was the one who plotted against the goddess Persephone. "
"...you are honest."
Jason turned his head and looked at the man beside him indifferently.
"Shall I eat him? Three honey cakes will do."
Jason shook his head.
"Those two... two, can't be missing!"
Jason patted Cerberus's head dumbly, and said: "Okay, okay, this is not about the honey cake. The matter started because of my invitation, so it should be resolved by me... Texiu Brother Si, I will truthfully tell Hades and Queen Hades about your affairs, and I will not interfere with the outcome.
...they are my family. "
After finishing speaking without waiting for Theseus' reaction, Jason looked at the other person beside him and said, "As for you...you don't need to introduce yourself, and I'm not interested in hearing your name. It seems that you are also a Hero, I will heal you first, and then you take up your weapons and fight with me.
If I win you out of the underworld, I will die in your place.
If you lose, die in my hands. "
After Jason's words fell, Theseus' eyes flashed unbearably, just when he was about to continue persuading Jason.
"good."
The man agreed, and said with a hard smile: "I heard Theseus said about you, that you are a very special person...now I believe it.
Thank you, even if I die in your hands, that is my relief.
Otherwise, I think I should be imprisoned here forever and suffer endless torture. "
"You've said it before, I really don't have such good intentions... It's just that this matter was caused by the invitation I sent, so naturally it should be resolved by me.
After killing you, I will apologize to Hades and Queen Hades on my own...By the way, brother, I will borrow your sword. "
As Jason said, he came to this person and gave him vitality, allowing him to quickly recover from his injuries.
Then he took the sword of Theseus, turned and left the room.
After a while, with the weapon in hand, he said goodbye to Theseus and left the room.
Soon, there was the sound of swords clashing outside, but only for a while.
After a while, Jason came back.
His white clothes were like snow, spotless.
It's just that the sword in his hand was broken...
"Cough, I'm sorry, Senior Brother Theseus, I broke it with a little force just now."
Jason coughed dryly, and said to Theseus: "I'll help you build one when I have time...Well, if you can survive."
Then Jason brought Theseus, who was chained, to Hades, the king of the underworld, and Persephone, the queen of the underworld.
Tell the two of them everything truthfully.
Theseus still did not escape punishment, but looking at Jason's face, Hades promised to let him die and come to accept a hundred years of punishment.
As for Jason... It is estimated that even if Jason begged them to fight, they would not be willing.
So after the incident was over, Jason returned to the world with Theseus immediately.
And prepare to go with him to the labyrinth of Naminos.
Jason was still Jason, and he hated getting into trouble.
What's more, there are still things about the magic gun and Athena's blood waiting for him on his body, and one more day of delay will increase the danger of one more day.
But when Jason heard that Atalanta went to the dangerous maze alone, thinking of her stubborn and strong appearance, Jason finally...sighed.
Forget it, let's just fulfill the agreement with Cerberus by the way.
Jason, who made the decision, can only comfort himself like this now.

PS: Sorry for the late update today, so I just merged the two chapters into one and updated it.
Chapter 184 Maid Costume Cerberus (3k)
Minotaur, also known as Asterios, means the monster who was given the name of thunder.
He is a monster that exists in Minos' labyrinth, one of the four major labyrinths in the world.
And his birth came from the curse of Poseidon, the emperor of the sea.
This matter involved a man named Minos, who was king of the island of Crete, and he had a very beautiful wife named Pasiphie.
The origin of the story is not complicated. With the help of the sea god Poseidon, Minos ascended the throne and became the king of Crete.
So he promised to dedicate the highest gift to Poseidon, but he felt that there was no animal in his territory worthy of dedicating to this great god, so he said to Poseidon that he would give the first animal that appeared in the sea. An animal was offered to him as a sacrifice.
Poseidon was very moved when he heard this, so he made a beautiful white bull emerge from the waves, and waited for Minos to sacrifice.
