The Abyss Roars, the Day of Divine Wrath

The promise the sea made to Rovi was unlike any other that any other god had ever given to him.

Because this is not divine protection given to man, but rather the connection between man and nature.

Just as Poseidon said, from then on, the sea would be like his body, Rovi would forever remain a pure body, untouched by any filth—a kind of invulnerability to all poisons. Although not absolute, it's like immersing a drop of water in the vast ocean; when diluted billions of times, any toxicity will disappear.

So Rovi expelled the toxins from the Hydra.

Because they can no longer harm Rovi.

Poseidon blocked the road completely.

Why are you still imagining so much even though I haven't said anything?!

Of course, failure meant nothing to Rovi, and he was already used to it. But when he thought about Poseidon's final gesture... even though he knew it wasn't meant to show contempt but respect, Rovi still felt a strange sense of unease.

The saying goes, "What goes around comes around."

"Rovi-senpai, why haven't you come out yet?" The Aegean Sea, now calm after the Hydra was dispersed, was shimmering with light. Under the moonlight, the Argo was anchored in the center, with Heracles standing at the bow, his brow furrowed.

Atalanta still stood in the watchtower atop the sails, gazing at the world beneath the moon under the protection of Artemis.

That guy... I hope he's alright.

She clenched her fangs and tightened her grip on the bow and arrow.

If that guy dies... what should I do? No, what does his death have to do with me... no, anyway, that guy absolutely cannot die.

"If you die, even if I have to go to the underworld, I will drag you out!"

You are my prey...

We haven't settled our accounts yet!

At that very moment, the sea ahead suddenly rose, like a small bubble rising and bursting, and a figure emerged from the vast expanse of waves.

"Cough cough cough..." Rovi coughed softly, and then floated in the air, stepping on the seawater, and walked step by step onto the Argo.

"Rovi-senpai, you are indeed alright." Heracles smiled. "I thought so. After all, you are a wise man who impressed even Prometheus who stole fire, with just the clay tablets you left behind. How could you put yourself in such a deadly situation?"

"I'm not that easy to kill." Rovi coughed softly, then, hearing Heracles mention the clay tablets, added, "I haven't retrieved all of my clay tablets yet!"

That's the ultimate dark history...

"Speaking of which, Prometheus apparently also made many copies of your clay tablets..."

"Why didn't you say so sooner?" Rovi choked up instantly.

"You didn't ask!" Heracles blinked.

That kid... he definitely did it on purpose!

Rovi sighed, suddenly realizing he needed to make a trip to the Caucasus Mountains to meet the god who stole fire!

While feeling helpless, I couldn't help but laugh.

He is both reckless and clever, brave yet discerning in his actions, serious when he needs to be, and equally capable of both anger and playfulness.

Rovi did not know what the original Heracles should have looked like.

But he thought such a great hero was not bad.

As Rovi was thinking this, he turned his head and happened to meet Atalanta leaping off the sail.

He smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I'm not dead."

"Who cares if you live or die!" Atalanta seemed disdainful, but couldn't help glancing at Rovi, and only after confirming that he was not injured did she inexplicably breathe a sigh of relief.

He is my prey—only I can hurt him.

That's how she comforted herself.

"Let's continue!" Rovi looked at Heracles: "This time, I'll steer. Atalanta will keep watch on the course, Heracles— "

"Yes," Heracles replied.

"You can lie there now. You've worked hard before!"

Heracles paused, as if in a daze, and nodded after a moment. "Ah."

"Take a break..." This seems to be a phrase I haven't heard in a long time.

After all, he had always been the one others relied on throughout this trip, but that was alright.

As night faded, the first rays of dawn appeared in the distance.

that's all,

The Argo, with only three crew members, set sail once more.

'A group of only three crossed the Dead Sea, a place known to the world as impassable even to gods, and inhabited by the monstrous Hydra. They set sail once more, traversing the vast ocean.'

' Poseidon, the god of the Sea God, drove a great fish to see them off; Helios, the Sun God, guided their way; Anemoi, the God of the Four Winds, billowed their sails. Great heroes embody truly great spirits; their existence will bring about a true transformation for those who have faded into obscurity.'

'Because the real trials ahead are just beginning.'

' The Argonautica '

"Lord Rovi, Lord Rovi..." Hermes, in the form of wind, rang in Rovi's ears.

The helmsman paused slightly, and Rovi tilted his head, already quite used to Hermes ' voice.

During this period, it was always this messenger of the gods who acted as his eyes and ears for gathering intelligence.

They are said to be messengers of the God-King, but now, it would not be an exaggeration to call them the ' Sage's eyes and ears '.

So Rovi simply asked, "What's wrong?"

"A message has come from Hades in the underworld," Hermes whispered. "Cracks have appeared in the Tartarus Abyss, where the Titans are imprisoned, and more and more Titan monsters are advancing toward the surface."

Zeus King of the Gods, prophesied that they would climb Olympus, disrupt the rule of the gods, and then destroy everything on land.

"Hydra, merely the vanguard."

No wonder the Hydra, which belongs to the abyss, appeared on the surface.

"Be careful on your journey, for I too must go to Olympus to attend the council of the gods!" Hermes left these words and then vanished completely.

This was the last message he conveyed to Rovi before the great battle was about to begin.

The Sage's eyes and ears is ultimately just a joke.

Rovi patted the rudder and looked into the distance.

At the edge of the horizon, the land could already be seen. The world remained peaceful, but Rovi knew that this peace might not last much longer.

Because of the impending appearance of the Titan monster—

"The monsters of the Titans will crawl out from the abyss."

Mount Olympus, a sacred mountain located in the space between the mortal world and the dimensional realm, exists on an extremely high plane. Thunder roars and crashes, and the King of the Gods manifests in human form, displaying his majestic authority over all things and reigning supreme over the world.

Within the magnificent temple, like the stars of the universe, the radiance of all gods is revealed.

Zeus said, "I have already prophesied that the one who can defeat the Titan monsters will be the most powerful human in the world."

"I command you gods, each of you, to guard your own city-state and await the opportune moment."
