"Welcome to Eridu. I am the ruler here for the time being. You can take a look at it as you like."
Quetzalcoatl walked in front of everyone and led Lemony and his party into this bustling city.
"Well, it gives people a completely different feeling from Uruk. It should be said that it is indeed a city built by the water god Enki. It is really full of vitality."
Merlin looked left and right as he walked.
Although Eridu and Uruk are both extremely wealthy cities in Mesopotamia, they still have extremely obvious differences. At the very least, their styles are different.
The location of Uruk is a wilderness near the water. It is extremely empty. Standing on the city wall, you can see all the surrounding scenery.
Eridu is a city built in a dense forest. It is also surrounded by water and full of greenery. The whole city is integrated with the forest.
"Eurielle's breath is not far away, I can feel it."
Stheno sat on Lemoni's shoulder, staring closely at the palace of Eridu.
"Why do you live in the palace? Where is the king of Eridu?" Lemoni asked his doubtful question.
"He died in a battle with a monster. When I was summoned on my own as a servant, this city had not elected the next king." Quetzalcoatl had a trace of regret on his face. His expression said, "What a pity. Judging from the words of the people here, he is a pretty good king."
"Did he die in the battle with the monsters?" Anna lowered her head slightly.
"Lemonie, can I ask you a question?"
When he was about to see the sister he missed, Stheno lay on Lemoni's shoulder, with a somewhat inexplicable meaning in his tone.
"What? Can't you just ask?" Lemony glanced at her.
"Tsk, you really don't know how to be charming." Stheno smacked his lips in displeasure.
"Tell me, if I die fighting a monster, will you choose to remember me?"
Although Lemoni's attitude was not very good, Stheno still stubbornly and seriously grabbed one of Lemoni's ears, turned his face away, looked into his eyes seriously and asked this question.
"What question are you asking?" Lemoni looked at Stheno strangely, "Why won't I remember you?"
"Because this is the feeling you have always given me?" Stheno pouted, "You are extremely indifferent to everything. You only show other expressions when you see novel scenery or when fighting."
"I'm a little scared now that you'll forget about me."
Lemony felt that something was not right with Stheno now.
Because Lemoni's pace had slowed down, they were already at the end of the line.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I won't show any other expression, and it doesn't mean anything else." Lemoni stretched out a hand and gently took off Stheno's hand from his ear. He frowned and said, "From the moment it was taken off by Lady Athena, I will keep every person who meets me firmly in my mind and will never forget it, even after I die."
"Well, it's just that this is the first time I've been summoned."
Lemony seemed a little troubled by this incident.
"Isn't that certain?" Stheno rolled his eyes, "Think about how harsh your summoning conditions are."
"Although it is possible to summon you using an ordinary lemon, would a normal master choose to use a lemon as a holy relic?"
"And if you don't use the holy relics and just rely on your compatibility, you will have to have a good compatibility with you to trick you out."
"Well, it feels like this is the case for a few of us on board the Elma." Lemony sighed.
This matter is so helpless.
The time when the Irma was active was really too long ago. If you do some calculations, their era was almost 15,000 years ago in modern society. This is much longer than historical records, so their story It can only be passed down in the form of legend.
Ah, mentioning this, Lemoni also wanted to thank Hermes.
At that time, he was on the coast of Atlantis to resist the invasion of the town by Basamizo controlled by Poseidon, while Oceanus rode the sea into the sky, hunting down the Nine Muses and died because of them. Agabimero took revenge, but because of the appearance of Poseidon himself, Ocean had to let go of the last Muse who had not been killed and returned to the coast to deal with Poseidon.
The legend of Ocean and Irma was spread by this last Muse, and it was precisely because of Hermes that she spread this legend.
Hermes was one of the closest people to Oceanus. As a god, he chose to shed tears for the demigod.
After Oceanus killed Poseidon and died before the divine thunder fell, Hermes threatened the only remaining Muses with the power of the main god and asked them to atone for their actions.
Stheno was silent for a while.
Then he suddenly broke off Lemony's head.
"As promised, you really won't forget me, right?"
"You are the first hero who has not fallen for the beauty of my body. I will bring this obsession to the Throne of Heroes. If you forget it then"
Although her face was red, her eyes were narrowed, revealing a hint of danger.
The obsession to bring him back to the Throne of Heroes is no longer as simple as a simple message.
Lemony sighed helplessly. He felt that Stheno was a little annoyed.
But he still answered Stheno seriously.
"I will."
"real?"
"real."
". Stretch out your hands and stop feet first."
Stheno thought of something, suddenly smiled, and said to Lemoni.
Lemony was a little confused, but still did as he was told.
Stheno stepped on Lemoni's arm, sat on Lemoni's palm, and looked directly at Lemoni from the front.
She looked at it seriously for a while, as if she wanted to carve Lemony's face into her eyes.
"My time... is running out."
"I still don't think a man like you can leave a deep enough impression in your memory."
She looked into Lemony's eyes and sighed.
"What do you mean there's no time?" Lemony asked with a frown.
But Stheno did not answer him.
This seemingly frivolous goddess suddenly showed a fierce expression and gritted her teeth as if she had made up her mind.
Then, he stretched out his slender arms and grabbed both sides of Lemoni's face.
She closed her eyes.
Just like that, the kiss continued.
