Facing the curious gaze of the sea queen Amphitrite before him.
Jason could not help but appear slightly embarrassed.
And regarding this, even Pegasus nearby could not help but laugh.
Dodging left and right, but evidently, what comes around goes around.
The gods were not fools; even though Jason had found himself a pseudonym, the hero in the rumors dressed in snow-white clothes, with golden hair and golden eyes riding a holy Pegasus...
Looking at Jason before her, obviously this recognizability was still very high.
At the same time, in this instant, Jason seemed to sense something, subconsciously lowering his head to look at the silver bracelet worn on his hand.
That was the divine artifact crafted by Hephaestus on Athena's commission, used to block Queen Hera's perception.
And now, even the sea queen Amphitrite far in the sea knew, so... did Hera also know?
Thinking of this, Jason could not help but shiver.
"What is it, child." Seeing this, Amphitrite said softly to Jason, "Are you feeling cold?"
"No, not..." After Jason answered, under Amphitrite's beautiful blue eyes, he lowered his head and shifted his gaze away.
Amphitrite looked at Jason, who had turned his head away, and could not help but blink her eyes.
This child surely has some relation to Hera, but why is he unwilling to say it... Amphitrite thought this way, then perhaps vaguely sensing that the matter seemed quite interesting, the corners of her mouth slightly curved upward.
She now undoubtedly wanted even more to understand Jason's matters, but Amphitrite was not in a hurry for the moment.
Then Amphitrite's fair hands once again plucked the lyre, and she smiled at Jason, saying, "Then child, what do you think of my proposal?"
Following Amphitrite to learn lyre playing, and also the red-coated cattle of Geryon to send to Apollo... Jason hesitated for a period.
Finally, he bowed to Amphitrite and said helplessly in his heart, "Then I will trouble you, noble sea queen Goddess Amphitrite."
The more he resisted, the more likely the other would become excited.
Thus, it was better to go with the flow, which might instead be better!
And seeing Jason agree, Amphitrite nodded in satisfaction.
This era was the ancient Greek divine generation.
And Amphitrite was a goddess of long years; for these Greek gods, sometimes helping a child did not require many reasons.
Even most of the time, merely taking a liking was sufficient.
Thus, from this day on, Jason accompanied beside Amphitrite, following her to learn the techniques of playing the lyre.
However, what Jason did not expect was that just as he was following beside Amphitrite learning the lyre.
There was a noble goddess who, at this moment, was searching the entire continent for him.
That was naturally Rhea, who had intercepted Athena's divine oracle, one of the most ancient gods in the entire Mount Olympus, the mother of Hera, Zeus, Hades, Poseidon, and others, the queen of the second generation of gods—Rhea!
Perhaps because she had not come out for too long, and also because when Jason was following Amphitrite, Amphitrite subconsciously let the sea cover Jason's traces.
Rhea, wandering on the continent, even specially called upon Hades, but in the end still could not find Jason's whereabouts!
And not only Rhea was searching for Jason; Hera had also sent people to search for that hero "Heracles" dressed in white clothes riding a Pegasus!
Hera did not know that person was Jason, because she did not know that after Hestia wanted the Pegasus, she had placed it beside Jason.
At the same time, plus the gods' concealment, Hera did not know much about Jason and now subconsciously thought Jason was still hiding with Hecate or Chiron.
And this time, the one she sent to search for this Heracles was the war god Ares!
Regarding all this, Jason naturally would not know.
Then, in the blink of an eye, a week passed like this.
...
...
One week later,
This morning.
The white-clothed Jason, on the coast of a beautiful small island, gently played the beautiful sea-blue lyre in his hand.
And beside Jason were wondrous creatures squatting on the coast, half like birds and half like women; their names were Sirens.
These Sirens, this group of sea demons, according to legend were the daughters of the river god Achelous, beautiful fairies born from his blood.
Because they lost a music contest to the muse goddesses, they had their wings plucked by the muse goddesses, making them unable to fly.
Note that although they appeared beautiful on the outside, one must absolutely not lose direction in their songs, otherwise one would become white bones on the island.
And at this moment, these demonically beautiful women who had transformed into human form were gazing discontentedly at the handsome youth before them, who shone as brilliantly as the god of light Apollo.
And under the beautiful qin music played by Jason, they sang melodious and clear songs.
The wonderful melody collided with Jason's graceful qin music; the two engaged in a musical confrontation.
And under the sounds of both, a gentle breeze came, the water waves calm; even the white clouds and seagulls seemed to be listening attentively.
For a time, it seemed the world only existed their opposing sounds.
And due to the magic of the ocean qin in Jason's hand, the azure sea, under the influence of the qin music, rhythmically lapped at the sea surface, cheering for Jason.
Such a time continued for a while.
"That is enough."
Clapping her hands, the noble goddess in a light blue dress, Amphitrite, who had arrived nearby at some point, came before Jason.
Her appearance interrupted this musical confrontation.
The elegant her reached out and touched Jason's golden hair.
With a gentle smile on her face, she softly said to Jason, "Child, you are even more outstanding than I imagined; although I had a premonition that in a week's time, you would be sufficient to pluck my lyre.
But I did not expect that you would actually, merely relying on qin music, suppress the song of the sea demon Sirens."
Hearing Amphitrite's words, those little demons' faces could not help but appear very unconvinced, but they naturally also recognized who this noble goddess before them was; she was the queen of the sea, so they did not dare to act out.
"Goddess Amphitrite, all this is thanks to your guidance."
Jason, holding the lyre in his arms, bowed to Amphitrite.
Amphitrite smiled as she looked at Jason before her, lovingly stroked his cheek, then could not help but sigh lightly, saying, "I have never had a moment where I felt the passage of time was so brief... if not for me specially going to the continent recently, child, I truly would want to invite you to the sea god's temple as a guest."
At this point, Amphitrite regretfully sighed, then said to Jason again, "We should leave, child.
Being able to pluck my qin strings and sing against the sea demon Sirens, even if Apollo appeared before you now, he would acknowledge your qin skills.
But merely this is not enough if you want to obtain Apollo's gift.
Follow me; I will take you to Erytheia Island; that herd of red-coated cattle will make Apollo happy."
Just like this, Jason prepared to leave this small island where he had stayed for a week.
Before leaving, he even specially came before this group of Sirens who were looking at him discontentedly, expressing thanks to them for this period.
Although Jason also knew in his heart that if not for Amphitrite's warning to them, they probably would have acted against him long ago.
Regarding Jason's thanks, the sea demon Sirens could not help but appear very surprised.
They looked at each other, for a time actually appearing quite at a loss.
And just then, Jason, who had expressed thanks to them, had already returned beside Amphitrite.
Accompanying her to sit on the holy Pegasus, setting off and flying toward the blue sky.
Looking at the departing two and one horse, the Sirens, who were exchanging glances, after a moment of silence, also did not know which sea demon took the lead, singing a beautiful song.
Then more and more sea demons responded; this land once again resounded with beautiful songs.
Although this song still possessed magic, it was no longer the enchanting charm song that bewitched the mind, but rather that kind of magic that made one feel comfortable.
At the time of Jason's departure, facing the sincere thanks Jason showed, these Siren sea demons gave a response, singing blessings for him.
"To receive the blessing of the sea demons' song... child, you can be considered the first."
Amphitrite said smilingly, her hands encircling his waist, intimately leaning against his back.
And regarding this... Jason did not even dare to breathe.
"Child, do you know whom I saw when I specially went to the land this time?... I truly did not expect that you even attracted her out.
And now she is searching everywhere for you, but unfortunately I erased the traces; it will probably take her a good while to find."
Amphitrite said, hand at her mouth, elegantly giggling.
Hearing this, Jason could not help but feel somewhat helpless.
Although he did not know who the one Amphitrite spoke of was, regarding Amphitrite's reaction of having successfully pulled off a prank, Jason really...
Moreover, not only Amphitrite; such a reaction, Jason had also seen on Hestia and Athena and them before.
As expected, these guys... were really bored.
In Jason's heart, he inwardly complained a little about this.
"Speaking of which, child, I also went to see Artemis... do you know, that child, because of the tribute you offered her, even specially went to the three fate goddesses, going to great lengths to obtain a time flower."
"Time flower?" Jason asked curiously in return.
As for behind him, Amphitrite's exquisite body pressing against his own, to be honest, Jason truly... was somewhat immune.
"Yes, that is a flower capable of recording events that occurred in a certain time period; it is extremely precious, and very scarce even in the hands of the three fate goddesses... do you know what Artemis that child recorded?"
Amphitrite said, tucking the pale blue hair by her ear blown by the wind.
And at this moment, Jason's heart felt a bit ominous...
"Hey, child, this period, sister has been good to you, right?"
Then, as expected, Amphitrite pressed her exquisite body even closer to Jason, even coming to Jason's ear, softly saying, "Then the tribute you give to sister... will not be worse than that child's, right?"
Romantic...
At this moment, Jason somewhat wanted to cry.
Very obviously, the segment recorded in the time flower that Artemis obtained was the scene of the day Jason offered her the tribute.
Hearing this, Jason instantly also understood.
Why Artemis had suddenly gone silent and disappeared during this recent period; so it turned out she went to obtain the time flower...
From this, it was evident how satisfied Artemis was with the tribute she received, and at the same time, how jealous it made the other goddesses besides her...
"Little Jason, when sister went to see Artemis this time, I was truly shocked quite a bit, and even made a fool of myself."
Amphitrite said, reaching out to stroke Jason's cheek, her mouth corners slightly puffed, saying, "Then sister's tribute will absolutely not be worse than that child Artemis's, right?
If you can satisfy sister, sister can introduce you to the world's most beautiful woman; even sister's daughter is fine."
"Lady Amphitrite, there is no need for this..." Jason replied with his whole body stiff.
"Oh, speaking of which, you seem indeed not interested in such things." Amphitrite continued, "Over there they are saying that Hephaestus made you a golden mountain but you did not want it, made you a room full of divine artifacts but you also did not, even hundreds of convenient puppets you have no interest in... but you are not a person without desires."
"Hm... forget it; sister's daughter is very cute, oh; are you sure you do not want to meet her?"
"This..."
Just as Jason, under Amphitrite's gaze, racked his brains thinking how to respond.
Accompanied by a horse neigh, Pegasus stopped in the sky above a small island, and at the same time indirectly saved Jason's life.
"Ah, Goddess Amphitrite, we have arrived, arrived!"
The overjoyed Jason hurriedly shifted Amphitrite's attention, while gratefully looking at Pegasus.
His lips moved slightly, lip-reading to Pegasus, "Brother Horse, thanks for saving my life; today's green grass cakes, all you can eat!"
Jason's little actions, although they did not escape Amphitrite's sight, after Amphitrite shook her head in amusement, she also went along with Jason's intention and did not continue pressing.
However... the more you resist, the more likely the god will become excited!
Because for these Greek gods, as long as they took an interest, before the interest completely dissipated, to make the other completely give up... that was truly too difficult.
Therefore, the more Jason showed disinterest, the more interested Amphitrite became...
Simply put, no salvation; wait for death.
If not so, Jason would not always feel a headache and scalp numb upon encountering gods.
Because as long as it was a god, it was a kind of trouble.
