Artemis, the "Casual" Moon Goddess

Although she had never actually met Rovi before, there was still such a shadow in Artemis's heart.

That was an image pieced together bit by bit from Enkidu's words.

To some extent, it was also a factor in the transformation of the mechanical deity Artemis into a human-like being.

Just as Rovi had already discovered, the mechanical bodies of the Greek gods in this world slowly lost control and disappeared into the Sea of Imaginary Numbers after being damaged by the Harvest Star Vanguard.

It was roughly within those two or three thousand years—when Enkidu encountered Artemis, she was in a state where she had just lost her Mechanical Body and was only a humanoid terminal.

Its mechanical nature has faded, and its divine nature is abundant. If it wants to maintain its human form, it also needs to understand human nature.

The gods at that time each had their own choices.

Ares drew inspiration from the Spartans Wars, Athena from the words of the wise, and Apollo followed the path of justice and brilliance...

Artemis disregarded them all, and she Enkidu, who was then a 'saint' and had just arrived in Greece, as her teacher.

One who is holy and pure, one who has crossed the sea.

They must have a very deep understanding of human nature.

"Human nature... I don't really understand it either. But I do know that once a person has someone they miss, they will always be there for them." That's what the beautiful girl I met for the first time said.

So Artemis, following her words, planted the seed of longing in her heart.

It pieced together the shadow of longing—

And so, at this moment, facing Rovi, she couldn't help but feel a little emotional...

"It's amazing, it really is you, Lord Rovi!"

Pressing her entire body close to Rovi, the Moon Goddess, with her beautiful and graceful figure, was filled with joy. Her fair arms encircled Rovi's chest, pressing her breasts against him and deforming them.

Rovi glanced sideways, and through the protection and understanding given by Athena, he grasped the cause and effect. He couldn't help but feel somewhat helpless.

Little En must have thought this wouldn't happen either.

Atalanta was stunned.

Wasn't this supposed to be... a sage? A beloved friend of Lady Enkidu?

Why did Lady Artemis hug him directly?

Why...

Disorder, disorder.

Atalanta saw stars.

"This goddess, please stay away from me." Rovi then added, "We're not close, really—"

The sound faded.

His figure vanished in an instant and reappeared to the side.

The moon goddess's embrace vanished in an instant.

"That's going too far." Artemis crossed her arms over her chest, pressing them into her ample bosom. She crossed her legs and looked up at Rovi: "I am Artemis— "

"I do recognize the Moon Goddess," Rovi said seriously. "After all, I just beat up Ares, God of War. Oh, isn't that your brother?"

"What? You want to try it too?"

"That's too much!" Artemis said with a sad expression.

"Compared to you, I am not at all excessive, Lady Moon Goddess." Rovi smiled.

He certainly wouldn't beat up the moon goddess for no reason; he just needed an excuse to get rid of her.

This isn't how you die.

Provoking a deity is not the same as provoking a deity 'attaining'.

Not to mention that Rovi has experienced too many failures, and his mindset has changed slightly.

Recklessly seeking death may not be the way to go.

So it's better to choose to die.

In this way, even after taking a seat, one can retain memories and bonds.

"That's too much, Lord Rovi! Is it because of Lady Enkidu that you're rejecting my feelings!?" Artemis uttered a strangely sorrowful voice. "Lady Enkidu wouldn't mind..."

Enkidu really didn't mind.

Luo Rovi minded.

Just then, the air rippled slightly, like snowflakes gathering, and light and shadow intertwined, and a figure emerged from it.

Artemis!

Her long, white dress fluttered in the breeze, and the Goddess of Wisdom from Athens wore a somber expression.

Athena could see Artemis's actions very clearly.

Ai Ai is Virgin Goddess...

How can this guy be so shameless?

You see, she was the one who first tried to win over Rovi. Although she failed, the pride of the Goddess of Victory wouldn't allow anyone to poach her talent after her!

It has nothing to do with emotions; it's simply a matter of dignity.

Athena appeared.

Rovi breathed a sigh of relief... It seems this ally was still useful.

He used the protection of the Goddess of Wisdom, not only to find out the reason behind Artemis's actions, but also to get Athena's help.

He also believed that the Goddess of Wisdom would come.

Taking advantage of this momentum, Rovi was also able to leave smoothly.

In any case, Little En is at a critical moment, so it's best not to make a move here if possible.

So as not to disturb her.

"Ah—it's Athena?" The moon goddess looked at Athena.

Her eyes instantly became extremely clear, completely still, and with a hint of... inexplicable ambiguity?

"Why are you so excited?" she asked, feigning innocence. "Could it be... oh, sorry, I didn't think of that."

"..."

Athena quickly regained her composure; she realized she had stepped into a trap.

But soon, Athena smiled.

What you're saying is none of my business; it's about the present—

She clapped her hands and grinned. "Yes, Artemis, my friend, what do you intend to do to those I've protected?"

Artemis tilted her head.

His face clearly said, "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

Both are goddesses, and having known each other for so long, how could Athena not know what she was trying to say? She was deliberately trying to misunderstand her relationship with Rovi.

Virgin Goddess must maintain her purity.

This was because it was a vow they had made to Zeus King of the Gods.

Therefore, she had to speak out in her defense.

Artemis could also persuade him to distance himself from Rovi by agreeing with his words.

It can only be said that as a goddess, and a former mechanical god, she would never lack cunning.

Even if Artemis had a completely natural appearance.

But the Goddess of Wisdom wouldn't fall for it.

She didn't say what the Moon Goddess had guessed, or what the Moon Goddess was thinking.

The sordid or ambiguous thoughts were all Artemis's own conjectures and had nothing to do with her.

"Lord Rovi, please leave with me—" Athena ignored Artemis, Goddess of the Moon, and looked at Rovi with a serious expression.

At this moment, the Goddess of Wisdom appeared dignified and resolute, her silver-haired, red-eyed face carrying a touch of heroic spirit.

She reached out and took Rovi's hand.

He made a move to leave.

Atalanta was completely dumbfounded. She had never seen two goddesses fighting over a 'mortal' before.

Hmm... Rovi glanced at Athena holding his hand and felt that something seemed a little strange.

"That won't do, Athena. This is my sacred place on Earth. I can't let you leave like this—"

"And you said Lord Rovi is your Executor?"

Artemis stopped Athena.

"Of course, Artemis, Lord Rovi still possesses the protection I gave him..."

Athena's words abruptly stopped halfway through, as a ray of moonlight shone down on Rovi at that moment.

The moon goddess revealed a beautiful smile, "In the name of Artemis— "

"The one I long for!"

"From this day forward, the moon will be your eyes and hands, always illuminating and supporting your path forward."

As she spoke, Artemis looked at Athena and winked, "I'm sorry, but now he has my protector too."

Athena: "..."

Even though he's a god, is it a bit too casual to protect him like this?
