I Will Eventually Embark On The Road Of No Return Called A Hero

"Although my heart hurts, the war between human beings has never stopped. If you want to live in an ordinary life, you must have a body of invulnerability, so that even if there is a war, you It can also be guaranteed not to be involved in the aftermath of accidental death," Prometheus wrote all over his face [I'm not going to lie to you].

"Fine, but I'm a mortal, how can I get the body of invulnerability," Although he had some doubts in his heart, Cyd voted in the sincere eyes of Prometheus.

"It doesn't matter, as long as you go to the Styx River and soak in it, you can get the almost immortal body of impervious to sword and spear," Prometheus turned his wrist slightly and pointed to the white horse, who was wandering, "Poseidon, the sea god The white horse will take you to your destination, and it won't leave until you think you've reached your destination."

"Isn't that the same as cheating," Cyd shook the head.

"It's still here to say it all," whispered Prometheus, "the gods are sometimes harsh because you make mistakes, the gods are sometimes gentle because you deserve them Shelter."

"Hmm...horse, go if you don't want to, I can walk to Styx River alone," Cyd tentatively patted the white horse's head.

The white horse glanced at Cyd and had no intention of leaving.

"Fine, as long as I have the body of invulnerability, can I live without the impact of the war?" Cyd raised his hands in surrender.

"It's not enough, impervious to sword and spear doesn't mean you can protect yourself, you also need technology that can protect yourself," Prometheus shook the chain on his body, "you can go to a half-centaur to learn This technology."

"That...half centaur is cannibal."

"You can find a half centaur that doesn't eat people."

"Those who don't eat people...half centaur?" Cyd touched the chin and thought.

speaking of which, in Greek mythology, there is a half-centaur who does not eat people but also teaches human combat techniques. He is almost all Teacher of Greek Heroes.

"Chiron...are you really right?" Cyd bitterly laughed, "I'm really not interested in heroes."

"I know, you just have to go to Mount It's enough for Pelion to ask him to teach self-protection," Prometheus said earnestly, "He is as friendly to you as I am."

"Fine, I only learn self- protection!" Cyd gritted his teeth, nodded fiercely.

However, just being impervious to sword and spear does not guarantee a stable life. What if someone is used as a shield or suffocated in water?

Appropriate martial arts are a must!

That's right! Prometheus doesn't lie!

"Then next, and the most important part, you have to go to God of Fire to build a Sacred Tool for you," Prometheus narrowed his eyes, "a piece that can defend you against all curses. , even the curse of the gods can invalidate the armor."

This time Cyd did not refuse, because the armor in Prometheus' mouth made his heart move.

He's not a demigod, he doesn't have an awesome background, he can come here only because his five years of kneeling and licking have made the gods merciful, in case one day he accidentally puts the gods What do you do when you're irritated and turn him into something weird?

“But why did God of Fire create this Sacred Tool for me that looks very difficult to deal with,” Cyd scratched the back of his head helplessly, “It just sounds like it’s hard to build.”

"No, it might be impossible for someone else to talk God of Fire, but you can," Prometheus raised his lips in a mysterious smile.

"Can't you just tell me?" Cyd curl one's lip.

"A little unknown is part of the ordinary," Prometheus looked at Cyd lovingly, "Son of man, may you get what you want."

"Thank you, but I'm sorry , I can't give you anything, and I can't set you free." Cyd bowed to Prometheus.

"It's okay, I do it of my own accord." Prometheus closed his eyes. "It's time for you to go."

"Go forward to the future you want."

"It's okay." p>

PS: No, no, no, I will die of overwork

Chapter VIII God's Anxiety

"The child is gone, you should come out too. "

Prometheus opened his eyes softly after Cyd and White Horse's silhouettes completely disappeared into the clouds.

"King of the Gods, Zeus."

"I'm not hiding either," Zeus stepped out from behind the rock with his arms around his chest and leaned on it, "but in It's just a gamble, but I lost very simply."

"It's with your two big brothers," Prometheus laughed.

"As smart as ever, yes, I bet that child will take over Poseidon's warhorse, but obviously there are times when I'm wrong," Zeus shrugged, "I said hello to Thetis, if I could. If so, see if you can temper that child's flesh with Heavenly Fire."

"Goddess of Water Thetis? So, do you still care about that prophecy?" Prometheus looked thoughtful nodded, "Then ...that child..."

"I hope you remember that it wasn't just your actions that I locked you in here," Zeus narrowed his eyes, "the look on your face now reminds me of The first time you fooled me with a tribute, but you should have known..."

"Of course, King of the Gods, all-knowing and almighty, my cleverness can't fool you," Prometheus shrugged, "So didn't I answer that child's prayer as you wished?"

"That child... trusts you a lot," Zeus looked towards the distance, even now he could see Cyd frowned, probably worried about something.

"Yes, so I feel very guilty, obviously that child only wants a peaceful life, but I used his trust to arbitrarily point him to the Road of No Return called a hero," Prometheus hung down. Eyes wide.

"This is the first time you've done something like this," Zeus looked at the guilty-faced Prometheus with interest, "Let me see why."

"That child...is a heresy in this world, no matter what, it is impossible for him to live as normal as he wishes," Prometheus felt powerless for the first time, "so I can only let him live [wonderful], At least he can live a happy life in the eyes of others."

"Even if you show such an expression? Obviously, you haven't lowered your head all these years," Zeus touched the chin and came to Prometheus, "But don't worry, I won't do anything to that child, what kind of [hero] will he be forced to become? You should also be very concerned about it."

"He...will become whatever The greatest hero that anyone can sing."

"Then... I'm really looking forward to it."

Black wings spread behind Zeus.

"I won't eat your liver today, after all, I have seen the expression I always wanted to see."

After saying that, Zeus turned into an eagle and flew away.

"Cyd, Pure Son of Man," Prometheus lifts the head looked towards the distance, "You will probably never touch the ordinary in your future life, but your words will probably never give up, Then I will continue to bless you until you reach that distant place that seems unreachable."

―――――――――――――――――――――――― ――――

“It always feels like… an unpleasant feeling,” Cyd on the back of the white horse shivered, shrinking his neck subconsciously, “The horse really reached the Styx River. Is it?"

White horse rolled the eyes, this is the fourth time, what are you worried about, attack? Please, who dares to attack Poseidon-sama's warhorse, don't die, and... the Styx River has arrived.

The white wings slowly folded, the white horse slowly descended as if stepping in the air, and finally stopped at the edge of a river that looked like a small stream.

"This is the Styx River?"

Seeing Styx River Cyd yearn for something even in dreams, he didn't jump down and have a good time, but rode on the back of a white horse. His face looked around suspiciously.

Ordinary, no, it should be said to be a beautiful scenery, the birds looked at him curiously on the branches, the grass swayed gently in the breeze, the clear little, the Styx River was flowing slowly.

"The creek where even the puppies walk is really the Styx River?"

It's not the legendary Goddess of Water Thetis, in order to prevent its puppies from being washed away Do you put it on the heel of the cub?
