After "betraying" his best friend Jason and his companions on the Argonaut, Hercules did not choose to pursue Jason, who escaped alone.
In this world, no matter what you do, you will be able to see it at a glance.
Although Heracles at that time did not realize the crushing power of the Moon Goddess, nor the subordinate relationship between the sky and the sea and the three pillars of the moon, it was only Oceanus and Urla. The existence of the two gods of North had already made Heracles cautious in his words and deeds to the point where he could no longer be cautious.
After all, it is almost impossible to hide one's figure and whereabouts in this singularity with the ocean that has almost completely replaced the earth and the sky that already covers all, and the idea of plotting something is tantamount to Idiot's dream.
In other words, from the moment he chose to turn to the primitive gods for a while, the only one who could be Hercules' companion was himself.
Although the gods of the sky and the sea trusted him very much, Hercules was not so stupid as to think that he could fool the gods of nature on his own.
Therefore, Hercules never revealed his true thoughts to anyone, even when facing Jason and other heroic spirits——
Even if he had discovered the key to truly defeating the original gods, Hercules never showed an iota of it.
And judging from the suspicion that the current Moon Goddess has shown, Heracles's choice is undoubtedly an extremely wise one.
At the same time, I must be thankful that the arrogance of the Moon Goddess prevented her from realizing where Hercules' real reliance and real "light" were from beginning to end.
If Heracles hadn't chosen to give up his human body and become a god, the arrogant goddess might not even pay attention to his resistance.
But it is normal to think about it. After all, in the eyes of the goddess Luna, her plan to destroy mankind and revenge on the Greek gods is no longer in the "in progress" stage, and there is no need to worry about what is left here. A little rebellion will lead to total failure.
After all, even the sky and the ocean are dead. The "ocean" composed of sea water and atmosphere that humans and other creatures on earth rely on for survival has been suspended in the palm of the goddess Luna.
At this moment, Luna chose to clench her hands and completely cut off life on earth.
Even if Hercules could hold up the sky for a moment, he would never be able to hold it up for a lifetime.
After all, it was Hercules who was selected and summoned here by the restraining force, not Atlas, the god in Greek mythology who really held up the sky for tens of thousands of years.
The current situation in the singularity is just as Animusfia and others learned from Jason as soon as they came from Chaldea————————
As expected, the strategy for the singularity point has already failed.
And he, Hercules, was one of the culprits who single-handedly contributed to this failure.
However, everything must be based on the premise of "no surprise".
Blinded by arrogance, the Moon Goddess did not see where the real light was. Heracles' plan had not made any mistakes until this point.
Just keep going.
Taking his eyes away from the Argonaut, which was heading towards him, Hercules used his last remaining strength to raise his head, looking directly at the cracked sky and the mercury falling down on him. The Moonlight, and after that, the Moon Goddess who was overlooking everything from beginning to end.
Facing the bright moon, Hercules laughed out loud, imitating the stupid smile of his best friend he had met countless times.
When had I ever laughed so unscrupulously?
Heracles, who used all his strength to maintain the sky and the last remaining remnants of the atmosphere, had no time to think about his past.
But he was afraid that a "human" named Hercules had never experienced such laughter and such a victory in his life and would never do it.
If Jason saw himself like this, he would be so shocked that he couldn't even close his jaw.
——————I’m afraid you’ve seen it.
But Heracles still did not stop laughing without any fear.
Even though his spiritual base was already full of cracks due to the arrow that shot straight to the moon just now, and even if he now uses all the magic power obtained by burning the Noble Phantasms of many heroic spirits, it is still impossible for Hercules to survive. He still didn't stop laughing.
The god named Hercules lost the possibility of victory from the moment he shot that arrow.
Even the light named Hercules has no chance of defeating the bright moon.
But if simply becoming a "god" can pave the way forward for mankind and the true "light", then for the man named Hercules——for him, it is also Nothing bad, right?
……………………
But for some reason, even though he was no longer able to think about anything, Heracles couldn't help but have memories of the past floating in front of his eyes.
The boy with supernatural powers has been feared by people since the day he was born.
After accidentally killing his music teacher Linos, even when the court ruled that his retaliation was self-defense and he did not bear any responsibility, the people of Thebes still could not treat everything as if it had not happened. generally.
Since then, Hercules has always received respect from ordinary people - or it can also be called fear.
Even when walking in the streets of the city, Heracles felt as lonely as if he were walking in the deep mountains and dense forests.
How can I laugh like a normal person?
How can we be sad like ordinary people?
Hercules, who tried to integrate into "humanity", made a lot of efforts to this end - clearing swamps, opening roads, and killing wild beasts.
But Hercules discovered that the more he did, the farther away the distance between ordinary people and him became.
When he was feared by his stepfather for accidentally killing Linos and was sent to the wilderness far away from Thebes, Hercules encountered two goddesses of vice and virtue: Cacia and Are. Intuit.
And just like their god names, Cacia and Arete gave Heracles two completely different paths respectively, a path of evil that would easily lead to prosperity and wealth by just choosing, and a path full of ruggedness. A bumpy but virtuous path that can lead to great things.
If he chooses the path of evil, even if he can enjoy all the glory and wealth, he will definitely become a real monster in the end————————
Thinking thus, Hercules chose the path of virtue without hesitation.
So Hercules did not become a monster, nor was he spurned by the Thebans.
But that’s about it.
The people's awe for him only increased, and the friends whom Hercules imagined laughing together seemed to be like a mirror.
Until he boarded the ship destined to be bathed in glory.
"Demigod? Monster? Careless person? Who cares about that kind of thing? With me, Jason, you are just a crew member guarding the future king, hahaha, cough... vomit... phew ………..Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
The arrogant and stupid man smiled as if he was completely unaware of the provocation he was making.
Although the man was still very embarrassed and choked on his own saliva while laughing, Jason still looked at the endless stream of heroes who came to join his voyage and Heracles standing in front of him. She patted him on the shoulder stupidly and continued to laugh.
That man's virtues are probably pitiful compared to his vices.
Jason's overestimation and inexplicable arrogance even made Hercules unbearable at times.
But for some reason, Hercules felt that the man named Jason was the most human-like person on the Argonaut, which was full of heroes.
He is also the only close friend who treats him as a human being and as a companion with whom he can get along casually.
Hercules had never heard such stupid laughter as that day, but he had never seen such bright sunshine.
Those are memories that Hercules will never forget even if he appears as a Berserker, even if he is manipulated by Hera again, and even if he loses his rationality again.
Only this time, he actually betrayed this memory as well.
……………………
Sure enough, there are still some disadvantages.
………………………
At this time, Luna, the goddess of the moon, also noticed the small ship riding the wind and waves in the ocean and came near Hercules.
"…………"
After just a glance, the surprise on Luna's face at what Hercules said turned into sarcasm and ridicule again.
"Is this what you rely on as a god? Heracles, haha, hahahahahaha! Don't you think it's ridiculous? As a god, you still have to rely on mere mortals. You don't think that something you can't even do will be done by others. Can these mortals do it? Hercules, I still think highly of you."
"Heracles, what are you doing with that half-hearted smile? You want to imitate my Jason's heroic appearance, but you're still far from it."
Jason, who had joined Hercules, ignored Luna's shadow at all, but directly raised his head and said to Hercules, who had turned into a giant and held up the sky.
Is this the reaction?
"Hmph, human——————"
"Shut up, goddess over there. Master Jason is not in the mood to talk to you right now!"
"you------!"
"Me? What's wrong with me? How dare I talk to you like this? I'm sorry, this is how Lord Jason talks to blind idiots."
"Jason————!————Hehehe, I didn't expect that even if I am weak like you, you would dare to say that I am blind."
Luna, who was provoked repeatedly, smiled instead of getting angry, and then continued to face Jason:
"You hope to anger me so much, but what overestimating purpose do you want to achieve?"
"Me? Plan, don't think too highly of yourself, you stupid mother goddess, why do I need to deliberately provoke you? I'm just stating the facts realistically."
As Jason finished speaking, although Animusfia and others did not see any obvious change in the expression on Luna's face, the number of moon arrows falling into the sea was clearly visible to the naked eye. It reveals that the owner's heart is not as smooth as it seems on the surface.
Now even Animusfia had to admit that Jason was better at making people angry.
"Haha, okay, let's talk about it, little mortal, what mistakes did I make while always watching everything?"
"You made such a huge mistake even though you were watching everything. That's why I called you stupid————Hercules was not what you call a god from the beginning!"
While speaking loudly, Jason turned his attention to Animusfia, who had left the Argonauts and was floating above the sea at some unknown time.
Its eager eyes seemed to want to eat Animusfia alive.
