Greek Demon Myth - Greek Demon Myth chapter 128

128 – Meanwhile in the woods

A great war is currently becoming a hot topic in the Forest of Heroes.

The all-time event, which started with Theseus’ challenge and sparked by Dianes’ all-time blind date declaration, engulfed the entire forest of heroes.

-Ha!

-Cheong! Catch up!

Athena’s Field resounds louder than usual.

The place was full of countless warriors clashing their weapons with their eyes burning.

Their innate skills are already enough for ordinary soldiers to handle dozens of soldiers, and their stamina is comparable to that of a bull, but the Spartan-style fierce training that has been going on for the past two weeks has brought everything to the next level.

“First team! Corsair!”

-Wow!

At Jason’s command, the warriors slash their spears at once and charge towards their goal in the middle of the plain.

The sight of them marching in unison and throwing spears at the same time as the command was given, it was as if a giant was swinging his fist.

-Doo-doo-doo!

The spears and arrows are sucked into the target without missing a single one.

The target, wrapped in traps and ropes due to the attack of the previous detached troops, disappeared without a shape in an instant.

“Yeah~ They really look like one body.”

“Not yet. Not there yet.”

Above the command post in the fields of Athens.

Jason shuddered at the sight of the soldiers more enthusiastic than ever, but the commander sitting across from him looked very uncomfortable.

“Ehh. Tessie, these days you…”

“What is it, your hand? If you have something to say, say it.”

Jason stared at Theseus growling nervously, then swallowed what he was about to say and shook his head.

“…No. I need to see the condition of the soldiers.”

“The war is only two weeks away. Everyone tells me to double the training intensity! If you are negligent or negligent even a little, you will be flogged!!”

Leave Theseus screaming nervously behind him, Jason left the barracks.

Taehyung.

Now they are soldiers under their command, but have they forgotten that they are the ones who break bread together after they get out of this game?

“Tsk, Eris whispered firmly and left.”

Unlike other golden generations, Jason was not born with the blood of any other powerful god.

However, he had one natural talent that would not be outdone even when compared to other members of the golden generation: the ability to recognize people.

Who is trustworthy, who is trying to deceive himself, what kind of personality and what kind of psychological state this person is.

Because he was able to read all of this in an instant, Jason was able to survive the limbless court of Iolkos and join the ranks of the golden generation in this forest of heroes.

And in Jason’s eyes, there were two of the most brilliant and strong contemporary heroes.

It was Hercules that everyone could not help but admit, and Theseus, who surpassed his own military strategy with wisdom and resourcefulness.

However, theseus’ light was visibly fading.

Those eyes that sparkled with rationality, dizziness, and ambition lost their light with black anger and hatred, and the face that never lost its composure was filled with only hunger.

There was a glimpse of a profiteer tyrant that he hated.

“Well… I understand. No, honestly, I don’t understand, but I understand again…”

Ehh…

Jason’s military tactics and talent that even his unscrupulous uncle Pelius had to admit.

However, Theseus shattered Jason’s confidence on the first page.

If he could see two or three more than the others, Theseus could see farther than that, dozens ahead, and turned all his strategies to no avail.

At first, there was a time when he was jealous of a new-blood hero who did not have such a talent, but Jason quickly faced reality and changed his line to make use of his strengths.

However, unlike Jason, Theseus faced a wall for the first time in his life.

A wall called Dianes, who has strength comparable to Hercules and wisdom exceeding Theseus.

Heracles wasn’t even jealous because neither his path nor his birth were comparable, but Dianes was born with the blood of a god, but he recreated the myth with his own wisdom and power.

Because Theseus seemed to be deprived of his position and reputation, he must have become impatient and initiated an unreasonable courtship.

“Jeep… To be honest, from my point of view, I can only say that I am full.”

Because of Heracles’ strength, Theseus was also a considerable warrior.

To the extent that he single-handedly hunted a bear and won a series of battles against 100 forest warriors.

In addition to that, his innate resourcefulness and wisdom overwhelmed even Jason, so even if Theseus despaired now, it would be less than he was in the past.

“Wouldn’t it be more likely that Dianes would admit it and move on?”

A new hero who suddenly fell and brought all sorts of confusion and awe.

Dianes of Pasos.

It was a mysterious existence that even Jason, who boasted that only the eyes that saw people surpassed any other hero or god, could not judge anything.

A man who seems to have come out of the world alone and hangs around.

Even if he was from Hyperborea, his strength, unknown charisma, and wisdom that he couldn’t believe were of the same generation made him doubt whether or not some god came out of play.

I secretly open my mouth to Dianes about this and shake it off, but he smiles meaningfully and fills his glass with alcohol.

Since there is no way to give a cool answer, Jason also cautiously kept his hands off the subject and shared a drink with him.

And when he, who had been hiding himself a while ago, showed off his power to everyone.

Someone who saw it saw a myth in it, someone felt fear in it, but Jason saw an opportunity in it.

A golden opportunity to fulfill his longing, his revenge.

His father, the great Ison who was his hero.

The one who overthrew such a son was an old doctor who was instigated by his half brother Pelias, and the one who buried his death as a natural death was the wise men and his aides who were captured by Pelias.

When Jason noticed all of this, his home, Iolkos, became the heart of the enemy camp, and everything around him turned into spears and arrows aimed at him.

If he had the power of Hercules, he would have smashed them all down and claimed the throne proudly.

If he had the same wisdom as Theseus, he would have defeated Pelias with a resourcefulness that even the gods would marvel at.

However, young Jason was just a quick-witted kid.

A weak child who has neither god’s blood nor great potential has never forgotten his revenge while shedding tears of blood. He has made use of his talent and innate affinity to form strong ties with many talented people in this forest of heroes.

And in the reenactment of the great myth he saw that day, the opportunity to fulfill his longing that even Hercules couldn’t fulfill beckoned to Jason.

If he can form a bond with that black abyss, at least a small friendship, it will surely be of great help to him.

And coincidentally, due to the opportunity provided by Theseus, I had the opportunity to get close to Dianes at once and gain the background to compete with the heinous usurper.

The male heroes of the forest came to Theseus at the tremendous offer that land heroes could never refuse and expressed their intention to participate in the war.

Thinking of the encounter with the beautiful nymph and the golden opportunity to come beyond, Jason busily made friends with the soldiers in place of Theseus.

“Hey! How are you?”

As Jason approached the soldiers in training with a friendly smile, the instructor who was teaching them announced a break, and the sweaty soldiers rushed in.

“Ah! Deputy commander! It’s still pulsating!”

“But I need some time to drink water! I will die in the scorching sun!”

“It is said that you are against Amman Dianes, but you are too hard!”

It was they who felt the transformation of Theseus the most, as much as Jason did.

As if it doesn’t matter how many people die for victory, radical and bloody strategies are rampant.

Even now, their enemy is not only Dianes.

“Hey, hands. I saw it earlier… Excluding Artemis’s hunting party, all of the women’s camps capable of war have gone under Atalanta’s command.”

“Even Atalanta is teaching them his skills with his own hands. It’s very dangerous, right?”

The skirmisher of their legion, the twins of Zephyrus came down from the sky and reported.

“Keep it off… Hey, as expected…”

The war of nerves between Dianes and Theseus started openly.

And in the middle of it, Atalanta, who became the heroine of the tragedy, suddenly rallied female warriors and wizards and declared their participation in the war.

In a situation where it seemed as if lightning had fallen from a dry sky, Theseus-kun was in a state of panic.

“No! What are you going to do with the women rushing to the banquet with the Nereis nymphs!”

“Hey, hey, I want to listen to Atalanta. Don’t you know that we spyed on you last time and came half dead?”

“I folded it in half at the waist and dragged it by the wings.”

Compared to the Theseus army, which most of the male warriors in the Forest of Heroes joined, the Atalanta army was small in number, but the problem was Atalanta leading them.

“I saw Atalanta training her soldiers, and she was fighting hundreds all by herself… Like watching Hercules or Dianes.”

‘Dianes…!’

Originally, when it comes to martial arts and running, Atalanta was one of the best in the forest.

But what Dianes taught in the past was Atalanta, who became a female warrior rather than a female hunter.

Even the children of Ares fell on their knees and built their own power. His brilliant performance and unstoppable moves made Jason feel chills running down his spine.

“My God Zeus.”

Wouldn’t it be like dying from overwork before the war, with a commander who has lost his eyes at the top, a powerful potential enemy for whom the reason can’t be guessed at the back, and a dangerous morale within the army?

Jason closed his eyes tightly.

“No, by the way. Where the hell did the person who created this division go?”

However, all he could do was pour out his resentment towards Dianes, who had been unable to see for two weeks after causing this commotion and turning the whole forest upside down.
