Chapter 313: It’s better to be sisters
Eros’s sight penetrated thousands of miles until he reached the sacred mountain in the clouds, at the end of the sky.
Under the clouds split by Zeus's thunder, the scenery of Olympus is also revealed.
The snow-white and holy majestic palace is built on the top of the mountain. You can feel its holiness and grandeur from a distance.
Eros remembered a story, specifically about a man who disrespected the gods, so he took his own bow and shot arrows into the sky.
But no matter how hard he tried, the arrows would always fall and could not hurt the gods in the sky. In the end, he was in awe and never dared to disrespect the gods again.
Although it is just a short fable, Eros said, why can’t it be shot?
The power of the magnetic field bursts out from Eros's hand, blending with the golden bow of light, revealing an exploding golden thunder.
The invisible power of the small universe seeped out, and Eros's thoughts spread along the power, gradually perceiving everything around him.
His thoughts followed the power and flew toward the birds thousands of miles away, perched on the cliffs of the sacred mountain.
For some reason, Eros only felt that his power could spread to such a distant place, as if he was completely free from any shackles and consumption.
Just like everything in this world, it can become a carrier of his power, flowing unimpeded.
Using the power of the small universe, Eros predicted the flight trajectory of the arrow and the movement trajectory of the target.
This arrow is not about the exquisiteness of archery, but about the purity of power.
When Eros has completely calculated and controlled these variables and things, he only needs to instill enough force and angle into the arrow as expected.
This may be considered a kind of cheating. The so-called skills are just another manifestation of strength after all.
Eros relaxed his strings calmly, and the arrow of light was silent, just like a glimmer of light that fleetingly passed before everyone's eyes.
The bird building a nest on the sacred mountain was unaware of it, but when it turned around, the gold and jade above its head had disappeared.
Iris, the rainbow goddess, caught the gold and jade falling from the sky and raised the proof in her hand high.
"He has completed it! This challenge that even the goddess of hunting and the sun god failed, Eros has completed it!"
"So according to the agreement just now, Apollo, the God of Light, do you really want to give up your opportunity?"
Iris asked again, but Apollo still had the same attitude.
“Of course, Eros has done well enough. I believe that even I may not be able to complete it.”
In front of such a large audience, Apollo still subconsciously remained as before. The same, showing a humble and polite appearance.
“No, no, no, that’s not the case.”
Eros picked up the bow of light in his hand and brought it to Apollo.
“My success is all due to your blessings and gifts.”
“You have kindness that the goddess of hunting does not have, and you have a gentle and warm spirit that is softer and warmer than the sun. Light."
"Although I am the winner this time, I know that my victory depends on your blessing."
The situation is inevitable. In order to get some limelight and not be too ostentatious, Eros chose to hold Apollo high.
In this way, it was a situation where everyone was happy except Helios.
Eros's reputation increased, Artemis was proud despite her defeat, and Apollo was packaged as a generous and merciful god who gave away the championship.
Only Helios seems to have participated, but also seems not to have participated.
Eros is the actual champion, Apollo is the uncrowned champion. Others will only remember that the sun god seems to be inferior to the light god in bows and arrows.
They can't remember the rest.
After all, failure caused by some small details is still a failure. More people will only deduce the process based on the results and do not care about the real situation. Apollo didn't know how to respond to Eros's actions.
"Okay, hold the bow. I saw just now that you haven't practiced much recently."
After praising Apollo loudly, When Eros returned the bow to her, he whispered in passing.
“No matter what, you are also the king of bows and arrows, the god of long-range shooting, and you must always keep your duty well.”
Artemis didn't notice much about Apollo's embarrassment, but Eros obviously noticed it.
There is a bit of self-doubt in the embarrassment, and it is easy for Eros to understand the reason.
So Eros not only killed two birds with one stone, but also increased Apollo's favorability by the way.
He believes that as long as he keeps brushing up, Apollo will eventually be able to abandon the influence of others and face his true self.
Why worry so much? If you like it, you have to be bold.
"Hmph, you did a pretty good job this time. You know who to side with."
Artemis was quite satisfied with the result, snorted softly, and shook her ponytail.
“It’s just some facts.”
Eros replied lightly, his eyes lingering on this beautiful and tall goddess for a moment.
She has a good figure, strong and wild, but her personality is not that wild.
On the contrary, it gives Eros the feeling of an arrogant young lady, and Artemis's characteristics are also quite wonderful.
But through this simple contact, Eros probably figured out the temper of this hunting goddess and knew how to increase her favorability.
Although he looks cold and arrogant on the outside, he actually sees clearly on the inside and cares about Apollo very much.
In other words, she will not think that others' respect and kindness towards her is what Helios does.
Even though she is disgusted with things about Eros and Apollo, Artemis can still objectively approve some of the things that Eros has done.
When it helps her, she will not deny it or feel at ease that this is what others should do.
This is very good. Although he is a little arrogant, he is not surly. He is just not so humble and polite in his words.
“Tsk, you really don’t like me anymore, your eyes are too obvious.”
Probably because Eros’s gaze is a bit straightforward, Artemis is a little disgusted. said.
“Although we are in the same camp because of Father God, I will still clarify some things with you.”
"Don't think that because of these things, we will be friends."
Her voice was still cold, with a hint of disgust and an obvious sense of rejection.
Although it was unpleasant to hear, Eros believed that even such a cold mouth could warm him.
“What’s wrong with expressing your love and appreciation openly?”
Eros explained lightly.
"Goddess, don't be so suspicious. I have always pursued mutual love and never forced others to do anything."
"Are you right? My dear friend Apollo."
