“So master, what are you going to do in the end?”
At the entrance of the underworld after the ‘Hall of Valhalla’ has been retrieved.
Tae Ho leaned up on Rolo who was lying down on his stomach and Adenmaha was leaning on his shoulder and arm.
Tae Ho looked at Adenmaha’s face that still had stains of her tears and then answered while looking forward.
“Hermes will come soon. Athena-nim should have noticed the situation over here.”
Tae Ho could feel the ones that were connected to him when he awakened as the master. Even though Athena was a God of Olympus, she was connected with Tae Ho through his saga so she must have also noticed the changes.
But of course, he wasn’t sure of it. Even if Athena realized that Tae Ho had awakened as the master she wouldn’t know what happened after that.
But she was a really wise person. In addition, Tae Ho was like the last thread of hope for her so she would try to check what happened however she could.
‘SO anyways, you are saying that Hermes is going to come.’
Cuchulainn organized the situation with a casual voice. It seemed like he was a bit absent minded and Tae Ho knew the reason for that. It was because he was checking on Nidhogg who was apprehending the children of Ares along with Drakon Ismenios.
She had just learned how to make a knot so the speed she was doing it was really slow in addition that it was a mess but she was still trying her best. You could only smile warmly at her.
“Um, so you are saying that meeting with Hestia-nim is the best for now right?”
“She should be the one that is the finest among the forces of Olympus we can approach. And now that I see, did you meet Hestia-nim before?”
“Uh……I think I saw her…”
Adenmaha paused and evaded Tae Ho’s eyes. Tae Ho approached his face closer to her as she seemed really suspicious.
“Saw her…?”
Adenmaha turned her head completely but it was meaningless as she was stuck next to Tae Ho.
Adenmaha groaned for a while and then made an excuse.
“Um, I was arguing that I had to go and rescue master……”
“Argue?”
“And grabbed his throat……”
Adenmaha flushed.
Summing up, she did meet Hestia but she was grabbing on Hermes’ throat so she hadn’t been able to greet her.
“Um, the first impression wasn’t good then.”
No, it was the worst.
Tae Ho naturally thought of Adenmaha growling at Hermes while grabbing his throat and the Goddess that didn’t know what to do and was putting a troubled expression.
Adenmaha seemed to have read Tae Ho’s mind that she spoke sharply.
“You know that this is all because of you right? I should lecture you first……”
She stopped talking there. Adenmaha ended up pausing her words unconsciously when she was about to lecture him.
The reason was obviously Tae Ho.
“Adenmaha, i’m always grateful. You have always been with me since we met right? And you also gave me strength this time. If you hadn’t been here I wouldn’t have been able to defeat Ares. It’s all thanks to you.”
Tae Ho looked at Adenmaha’s eyes fixedly and spoke quickly and the effects were amazing. Adenmaha’s face became red in different meaning to before and barely snorted after some time.
“Hm, hmph. You always try to pass away things……”
“I’m still really grateful to you.”
Tae Ho spoke once again. This time, Bragi’s rune worked hard and Adenmaha’s face became even redder. She couldn’t get angry at him anymore.
Adenmaha ended up getting angry in the end and spoke with a dim face.
“Master, don’t do that anymore. Okay?”
“Sorry, I can’t make that promise. I can’t let you be in danger.”
Tae Ho grabbed her hand tightly and said. He felt like he could hear Cuchulainn struggling while criticizing him saying that it was too cheesy but Tae Ho cleanly ignored him.
“Uhh…I have to get angry at you but I can’t…”
Adenmaha mumbled in a really low voice. She seemed like she was forcing it back but the corner of her lips was trying to curl up.
‘Evil bastard. At least, don’t use Bragi’s rune. Huh?’
Cuchulainn clicked his tongue and said. Tae Ho answered in a low voice at his criticizing voice.
‘It’s embarrassing if I do that and it doesn’t work.’
‘You are aware that it is embarrassing. And the results would probably remain the same even if you don’t use the rune.’
He could know when he looked at her. I wouldn’t be weird if Adenmaha’s eyes changed into the shape of a heart.
“A, anyways! She was a beautiful God. She was really calm. I felt like she gave me the same feeling from when I first saw Idun-nim.”
Adenmaha spoke pawing in the air as if trying to shake away her embarrassment. But the reaction of Tae Ho was a bit weird.
“Why? Was there something wrong in my explanation?”
“No, um. The first impression is like that. Right. So anyways, she’s a calm person.”
Tae Ho thought of the several sides Idun had and answered. It was because he also had the same impression as her when he first met Idun.
A beautiful, noble, really calm and gentle Goddess.
‘It’s different now?’
‘Of course.’
Just like when she stood up to Odin and Freya telling them not to try to scam him and give him a proper reward, or when she imitated Heda and teased him.
But of course, it didn’t mean that he was disappointed at her. He rather liked her more like this than when he first met her.
Adenmaha tilted her head like she didn’t know what Tae Ho’s answer meant but then returned to speak about Hestia.
“Anyways, she has a really gentle atmosphere around her. And…uh…I thought about it again but I can only think her troubled face when I was grabbing Hermes by his throat.”
Adenmaha grabbed her head and suffered. It was because she was really embarrassed to show such a side to her when she was trying to act like a ‘Goddess like Goddess’ usually.
“Let’s go apologize together.”
Tae Ho grabbed her hands again and said. Adenmaha then nodded with a depressed face.
‘Hey, doesn’t she have to apologize to Hermes instead of Hestia?’
Because Hermes was the one that got caught by his throat.
But his voice wasn’t heard to Adenmaha.
And after a while, Adenmaha barely regained composure and changed the subject that had gone really astray to the beginning.
“So what after we meet Hestia-nim?”
“We should listen to what she says but we obtained several choices thanks to having defeated Ares.”
“Um…certainly. I can already think of three things.”
“And what are they?”
As Tae Ho asked with curious eyes, Adenmaha hesitated for a moment but then spread three fingers and said.
“First, rescuing Demeter-nim? Athena-nim also said that she thinks Hephaestus-nim was also caught by Ares.”
“Next?”
“Destroying the barrier of Zeus guarding the connecting path? We don’t know how big the force stationed over there is but you said you defeated Achilles, who is like their leader. Even if conquering them is difficult because we don’t have that many forces we will still be able to attack. And I think that this is an opportunity.”
Olympus still didn’t know about the death of Achilles, the defeat of Ares or the awakening of Tae Ho as the master.
They didn’t know the amount of forces the opponent would have but still, the group could ignore a certain force. If you took that into account, this was the best opportunity to ambush them now that their strongest countermeasure to them had been defeated.
But Adenmaha, who said that, and Tae Ho who listened to her knew that this option wasn’t likely to be choosed.
The force of Zeus guarding the connecting path was still unknown. In addition, the group had spent a considerable amount of strength in the battle against Ares. They needed time to recover.
“And the last?”
“Fighting against Artemis.”
Adenmaha answered concisely. She was the closest and compared to Poseidon and Ares she was the most easy to deal with.
“Indeed, all of them are likely.”
“Uh, it isn’t one of these?”
Adenmaha asked while tilting her head as she had folded all three of her fingers. No matter how much she thought she couldn’t think of another option.
Tae Ho fixed Adenmaha’s fingers and said.
“Just like I said before, we have to meet Hestia-nim and debate with Athena-nim and Apollo-nim a bit more. And the result for that can be one of the options you said.”
“I feel like there are other options.”
“Yes, about two more.”
Adenmaha opened her eyes widely at Tae Ho’s answer. For there to be two options instead of one.
“Wait, it isn’t something reckless like ‘now that it turned out like this we are going to invade mount Olympus!’ right?”
“How can that be? There are two probable options.”
“What are they? Tell me quickly.”
Adenmaha grabbed Tae Ho’s arm and urged an answer but Tae Ho spoke with a casual face.
“You look cuter than usual because you are acting affectionately.”
“Hehe…not!”
Adenmaha was about to like it reflexively but then got a hold of herself and yelled.
Tae Ho looked at her and smiled and Adenmaha pinched his arm but it was useless. Tae Ho obtained a body like steel after bathing in the river Styx like Achilles.
He stroke the head of Adenmaha that didn’t give up and was still pinching Tae Ho’s arm and spoke with a playful voice.
“I will tell you when we meet Hestia-nim. We have to think what is more efficient between the two. Or we can also go with one of the options you mentioned first.”
The group didn’t have much they could do before they moved to meet Hades but the situation had changed.
They could also go on the offensive. The real counter attack started now.
“I tied up everything!”
A loud voice was heard then. When he turned his head with Adenmaha they saw Nidhogg smiling brightly.
“Tae Ho master! I tied it all!”
The number of survivors among the children of Ares was 19. Five of them were apprehended by Nidhogg and the remaining ones were tied down by Ismenios.
“You did well! Nidhogg is great!”
As Adenmaha answered in a loud voice and waved her hand Nidhogg also waved back to her. If you saw them from a side they looked like a mother and a daughter that were out on a picnic.
“He finally arrived.”
Tae Ho spoke in a low voice and stood up. Adenmaha stood up with him and asked.
“Hermes-nim?”
“Right, it seems like I really did become a God.”
He could feel things he couldn’t before he obtained a deity.
He could clearly know that Hermes was approaching and what route he was taking even without needing to use the ‘eyes of the dragon’.
Tae Ho looked at the place the magic circle was at. And a few seconds later, the messenger God that was wearing shoes with big wings in it appeared with the wind.
He looked at his surroundings hurriedly with a nervous expression and then met eyes with Tae Ho.
“This crazy. It was true!”
The master of Asgard.
Tae Ho looked at that Hermes and he, that was hesitating for a moment, fixed his posture. He expressed etiquette politely to the master of Asgard as the messenger God of Olympus.
&
“The Goddess of Hearth Hestia greets the master of Asgard.”
The place they had moved through the magic circle of Hermes was the inside of a big shrine.
The Goddess that was standing next to a hearth releasing light and fire expressed etiquette with a gentle smile.
The Goddess of Hearth Hestia.
She, the eldest yet the youngest daughter of Chronos was the sister of Zeus, Poseidon and Hades and at the same time with Hera and Demeter.
So naturally, her divinity was really high and it was enough to have a seat among the 12 Olympians.
But as she didn’t like arguing and fuss by nature, conceded her seat to the son of Zeus Dionysius herself and chose to retire.
The woman that was covering herself with a red cloth was just like Adenmaha had explained.
Brown words that gave you a warm feeling and scarlet eyes that were filled with gentleness. A white and pure face.
No matter how ferocious someone was, it seemed like they would turn into simple sheep in front of them.
Even Cuchulainn, who started to talk more in front of beauties, stayed silent without even cracking a joke.
It was no different for Tae Ho who looked at Hestia with devoted eyes.
But it seemed that Hestia felt this atmosphere to be rather stiff that she brought another subject first.
“Master of Asgard, there are a lot of things we have to speak about but closing the distance between us should come first. Fortunately, Athena told me something you like a lot.”
“Yes?”
Tae Ho asked back unconsciously and Cuchulainn opened his eyes widely in surprise.
After a while, the words that came out of Hestia’s mouth gave Tae Ho more embarrassment.
What the master of Asgard, Tae Ho, liked a lot.
“It’s a meeting.”
Hestia spoke gently and Athena, who was standing far away, nodded with a satisfied face.
