In fact, Rovi did intend to search for Atalanta.

Rovi was responsible for the well-being of everyone he had a connection with, but upon his return, he was passively drawn into the disputes of the goddess of war and, as a matter of course, became involved in the Trojan War. He simply couldn't find the time to help.

This ultimately led to the strange phenomenon we see before us...

"Artemis must have done it on purpose!"

That naturally cunning Moon Goddess!

Rovi rubbed his forehead.

Athena also noticed Atalanta's appearance, and instead of being embarrassed or annoyed, she pressed her body even closer to Rovi: "Ah, I was wondering who was disturbing my intimacy with my beloved, it turns out to be Artemis's little kitten."

"Disturbing my precious leisure time and spying on my intimacy with my lover—do you know what the grave sin of blasphemy is?"

Athena's words were loaded with meaning.

Hestia shuddered.

Could you please let me leave first? I don't want to, really—

The Goddess of the Hearth is now filled with regret, deep, deep regret.

This woman's private life is far too colorful!

Atalanta, on the other side, immediately exploded. "Even if you are a high and mighty goddess, you can't humiliate me like this!"

"I'm not some kind of cat..."

"Yes, I understand, Ta-meow."

"?"

"That's a name that sounds like a pet, isn't it? He told me that—don't you agree, Rovi?"

Atalanta, the wrathful Rovi, has a pair of small, delicate fangs clenched tightly.

Rovi: "..."

It must be said that the goddess aura emanating from Athena at this moment completely surpassed that of Atalanta.

Atalanta ultimately just a demigod. Even if she has the qualifications of a god, she is not yet one. Moreover, even if she were to become a god, she would never be able to rival Athena, who is of the highest caliber.

It is only natural that he was suppressed in terms of speech and temperament.

But cats are always stubborn.

Atalanta was not about to admit defeat, so she put away her bow and arrows and charged forward...

At that moment, Rovi reached out and grabbed Atalanta's swaying ear.

Faced with this situation, we should advance instead of retreat!

If you feel awkward, you've lost.

Losing would be even more embarrassing.

This is the 'wise man's experience'—to some extent, it's a rather absurd experience.

Because her animal ears were caught, the girl, who was walking forward, stumbled and fell into Rovi's arms on the left. Her delicate body, wrapped in a black dress, bumped against Rovi's body. Her curved buttocks, tightly bound by black cloth, swayed slightly on her thighs, and her long hair was spread out, strands brushing against Rovi's face.

Atalanta fell flat on her face, letting out a startled cry, "Ouch!?"

But soon, Atalanta noticed her awkward situation. Athena glanced at the wildcat that had taken over half of her space, her red eyes narrowed, and her expression was a half-smile.

The warmth that had emanated from her before her death caused Atalanta's breath to catch in her throat. She struggled to get up, but because her ears were still being stroked by Rovi, the girl's body was soft and weak. She simply thrashed about, but instantly fell to a position even higher than where she had been.

A hot touch washed over her, her buttocks were squeezed, and her slender waist swayed downwards. Atalanta's breath caught in her throat once more.

She knew exactly where that was, but the moment the sword fell, she unconsciously twitched slightly.

"So... rude..."

Atalanta stammered, unable to utter a complete sentence, and her face instantly flushed crimson.

Rovi wanted to speak...

"Ah, Rovi, it's been a long time. Your surroundings are still so lively!" A clear, warm, and gentle voice interrupted the words Rovi was about to say.

Rovi choked up again.

He looked toward the approaching figure.

A slender, petite figure, with long, flowing, lush green hair, and an exquisite face as always, her plain white robe swaying silently in the wind—this delicate, ethereal girl appeared outside the Olympus Temple at some unknown time.

That familiar face, that familiar figure, was without a doubt Enkidu, whom Rovi had been waiting for to awaken.

Although, but...

Why did you wake up at this time?

"Lady Enkidu!?" Atalanta exclaimed in surprise.

Enkidu, a forest sage who once met Athena.

The real rival has arrived— Athena narrowed her eyes.

"Fortunately, I've gotten used to it." Enkidu said, then sat down next to Hestia at the entrance to the Pantheon of Olympus.

"Is there any more wine?"

"Huh? There is—" Hestia was a little taken aback, but she still subconsciously took out the drinks and handed them to Enkidu.

Then the two 'people' each held a glass of wine in their hands. Little En looked at Rovi and the other two, revealing a pure and sweet smile. She waved her hand and said, "Don't mind me, you guys continue."

"After you've finished your work, let's catch up properly, Lord Rovi Wei—"

With a slight parting of her lips, Enkidu uttered words that were neither a smile nor a laugh.

What's the end of it? What am I supposed to end?

Rovi's eye twitched.

Hestia glanced at the three of them, including Rovi, and then at Enkidu's gentle expression. How to put it? She felt safe for the time being.

Having seen the scene, how could Rovi not know what had happened?

Artemis —that cunning goddess—not only lured Atalanta up, but also deliberately suppressed Little En's awakening desire, preventing anyone from sensing it.

"Only by disrupting the situation can I have a chance!" Above the Moon Palace, bathed in the bright white light, Artemis, alone with large expanses of her fair skin exposed, gazed at Rovi and let out a foolish laugh.

Rovi, my Rovi... you are mine...

"So, you just betrayed your followers and teacher like that?" Rovi glanced sideways, helpless, but he wasn't really that panicked.

after all...

"That guy who used the teacher to carry out his own shady secrets should also be punished."

Little En waved his hand, Lock of Heaven wrapped around her, binding her and pulling her down from the moon's shadow amidst Artemis's exclamation.

With a thud, Artemis fell to the ground, her snowy buttocks swaying, her face completely bewildered.

Her face still retained a flush of excitement.

Then Enkidu, with a swift movement, used the Lock of Heaven to completely surround the area.

Atalanta and Athena were both stunned.

Hmm... they've surrounded it.

Hestia nodded, then belatedly realized with a start that she had been drawn into this trap as well.

"You are too, right?"

Little En looked at her with a smile, "The one who's been spying on me, Rovi?"

That was too hasty!

Where did the promised gentleness go?

Hestia let out a helpless, mournful cry.

While watching the play, I was suddenly drawn into the drama – something the Goddess of the Hearth hadn't expected.

Having always remained outside the conflicts of the gods Hestia had long been accustomed to observing the evolution of all things, the contradictions among the gods, and the conflicts among humans from the outside.

From the moment Zeus led the Olympian Gods to defeat Cronus, this goddess has always existed in a detached and aloof manner.

So she hadn't encountered such an awkward situation as Tian in a long time, and naturally didn't know how to deal with it.

Living a long life does not necessarily mean you have to be clever.

So-called wisdom is more related to experience.

What to do, what to do, what to do...

With a whoosh, Little En suddenly stood up.

The four-sided Lock of Heaven seals off the space, making it difficult even for a god to break through. As the embodiment of the Lock of Heaven, Little En's use of this power is undoubtedly much stronger than Rovi's.

"Well then—" Little En smiled.

Before she could utter a word, Atalanta jolted and jumped out of Rovi's arms.

"Teacher Enkidu!" She lowered her head, her animal ears trembling slightly.

Artemis, who was lying down, immediately covered her head.

They were all a little afraid of Little En.

After all, Little En is their true 'elder,' the source of Artemis' personality, and the Forest Sage who watched Atalanta grow up.

She had been holding them hostage for a long time.

Only Athena remained calm, but she gently stepped out of Rovi's embrace and said calmly, "It's been a long time, Enkidu."

"It has indeed been a long time, Goddess Athena." Little En's lips curved into a smile, "Do you also like my Rovi?"

She spoke these words with utmost calmness, yet they caused Atalanta and Artemis on the other side to involuntarily tremble. The moon goddess even withdrew her hand, which had been secretly reaching out to Rovi.

Athena was about to speak.

Enkidu blinked and said, "Then why don't we all go together?"

Athena: "?"

Artemis and Atalanta: "..."

Hestia: "???"

You can say whatever you want, but why are you arresting me? This really has nothing to do with me!

The Goddess of the Hearth looked at the Lock of Heaven that was forcibly dragging her inside, and felt like crying but had no tears.

But Little En was actually serious.

Time has left little trace on her consciousness. The love she held for Rovi in the heart of the clay woman created by the gods has not diminished, but she still considers being with Rovi Wei as her top priority.

Rovi is her only one, but she doesn't demand that she be Rovi's only one.

She was just a broken, human-knowing divine weapon, and she also felt that she was very pathetic in this way.

"I have already sheltered you from the elements," Little En said earnestly.

But the more serious she became, the more terrified Hestia felt.

That's absolutely terrifying!

Athena was also speechless at Little En's words; she could, of course, see that this 'sage of the forest' was serious.

"Aren't we going to continue?" Little En asked, somewhat confused. "Don't you guys really like my Rovi?"

One sentence, and he dominated the entire audience.

At this moment, the Greek goddesses were experiencing the same sense of disorientation that Ereshkigal, the goddess of the underworld in Uruk, had once experienced.

If it were a direct confrontation, Athena believed she wouldn't lose.

But what's going on here?!

"If you don't continue, it will be my turn and Rovi's turn." Little En smiled and pulled Rovi over.

Athena instinctively reached out and grabbed Rovi.

"That's enough, that's enough!" Rovi Wei shook off their hands. "Don't let others laugh at us."

He pointed at Hestia.

Hestia was somewhat moved—finally, someone who understood.

But Little En's next words left her speechless. "She can participate too."

Hestia almost burst into tears.

"Whatever it is, tell us in the newly built Uruk!" Rovi said calmly. "Little En, you must miss it a lot, right?"

In situations like these, it's crucial to remain calm.

Small-scale, small-scale—

Let's move to a different location first.

The 'wise man's advice' told him that as long as he shifted the focus of the conflict and got through the initial emotional outburst, the subsequent conflicts would be much smaller.

So... why do I need to know about this kind of thing!?

"Ah... I miss it so much!" Little En said with a wistful expression.

It would be wonderful to reunite after a thousand years, especially if we could still be in familiar places.

Athena smiled serenely, "Then I'll take it too!"

The goddess gently took Rovi's hand.

"Lady Enkidu, I will follow you—" Atalanta immediately spoke.

"Just tell me if you like Rovi, I won't blame you, okay?"

"..."

"Um, me too..."

"You can't do it, Artemis."

"Eh?" Artemis, who was crouching on the ground, let out a confused cry.

"The moon should be waning." Little En tilted his head, bent down, and patted Artemis's head. "There will be an opportunity."

On the other side, Hestia quickly calmed down after her initial helplessness. She watched as the two goddesses, a female demigod, and a 'saint' suddenly transformed from a confrontational situation into one of extreme harmony. She blinked her azure eyes, and a hint of wonder appeared on her pretty face.

Over the long years, the goddess has seen many heroes favored by the gods.

But that kind of fondness is merely a fondness for something as trivial as a toy.

He was the one who truly won the hearts of goddesses, even those two who were Virgin Goddess like himself.

In the millions of years, Hestia had only ever seen one such case.

Is the charm of the sage from Uruk really that great?

The Goddess of the Hearth, how wondrous!

"Damn it, did you see that? Heracles! In the victory of the Trojan War, there was no god of Olympus!" High above the towering peaks of the Caucasus Mountains Heights, far below the clouds, someone roared and uttered these words.

The tall and robust Titan descendant, Prometheus, the fire-stealer, laughed heartily, his body swaying with a deafening clang of chains.

"I saw it, and I heard it." Beside him, another man responded with a smile, "I fucking heard it too, Prometheus!"

"Mr. Rovi is back!"

Heracles, a mighty Greek hero whose stature rivaled that of the Titans, stood beside Prometheus, who was still imprisoned by Zeus.

"The time has finally come for you to escape!" Heracles said. "You should have been freed long ago—"

"Everything changes, and it is my choice, and my destiny, to be able to escape this predicament decades later!"

"The day Lord Rovi ascends this mountain will be the day I escape!"

"I believe he will come to see me!" Prometheus smiled. "If this can bring an end to Zeus's rule, then it will be worth it!"

Boom!

Thunder roared down from the sky, striking Prometheus, but it couldn't drown out his loud laughter.

So Heracles laughed too.

Because they knew that at this moment, the eyes of King of Gods Zeus, had already begun to notice the changes on earth.
