Athena, You Need Treatment / Sylph Guides Athena
Hearing the screams from upstairs, Qin Chu saw Athena covered in blood, her beautiful face bearing a hysterical smile, Qin Chu was terrified. What on earth had happened?
With a slight frown, Qin Chu's wary gaze swept across the room; apart from Athena, there was nothing else there.
The next second, Qin Chu stepped forward, glanced at Athena sitting on the ground in front of him, and cast a beam of Holy Light to envelop Athena.
Holy Light enveloped Athena's body, and the half-foot-long, deep wound on her thigh, which exposed bone, was healing at a visible speed.
"Athena, what's wrong? What exactly happened here?" Qin Chu asked in a deep voice.
The soft white light dispelled the chill in the room and soothed Athena's restless and fearful soul.
She hugged her shoulders, her body still trembling slightly, the feeling of being enveloped in Holy Light... so warm.
She raised her head somewhat blankly, looking at the familiar face of her master in front of her. At this moment, the intense fear deep in her heart transformed into a burning desire, and she suddenly threw herself into Qin Chu's arms and hugged her master's neck.
Hmm...
Qin Chu, who was just about to speak, suddenly stopped speaking and turned into a strange sob.
The soft lips provided a wonderful tactile experience.
Her voluptuous body pressed against Qin Chu's chest. He could clearly feel Athena's burning skin and her rapid heartbeat, and her soft body was quickly arousing Qin Chu's desire.
They only separated when they were almost suffocating.
Athena's eyes were filled with madness and impulsiveness, her voice carrying a seductive, almost breathless quality. "Master, pamper me."
She longed for her master's warmth and yearned for his Holy Light to cleanse the darkness in her body and soul.

Chapter 317 Athena, You Need Treatment (Seeking Monthly Tickets and Recommendations)
(Recommendation)
At this moment, Qin Chu truly felt Athena's madness.
She transformed all the fear within her into a frenzied craving, simply cleaning the bloodstains off her body before throwing herself into an almost endless quest for more.
Athena was terrified.
This time, she won.
But she knew how delicate and thrilling her victory had been.
She didn't know who that mysterious being was, but she knew just how powerful it was, and how its erosion of her consciousness and soul was something she couldn't resist.
This time, she relied on the excruciating pain from injuring her own body to forcibly regain her will and break free from the other party's control. The next time, the situation will likely be even more dangerous.
The same method is unlikely to work anymore; in fact, that mysterious entity might not even give me the chance to use this method again.
She was terrified; she was afraid.
Her hysterical laughter was merely a way to vent the repression, even despair, deep within her heart.
To date, no one who has been targeted by an evil god has had a good ending. The First Prince, Karthus, Onions —their fates are still fresh in everyone's mind. Athena does not want to become like that.
Only when Qin Chu's Holy Light was released within her body could Athena briefly break free from that intense fear.
Athena had completely transformed into a Witch, a fairy, and she only wanted to immerse herself in this feeling, even if it was like a beautiful dream, and never wake up.
This was the first time Qin Chu and Athena were completely absorbed in Athena pleasure, with no other thoughts in her mind.
This was also the first time Athena didn't call out Jello's name, nor did Jello's image appear in her mind.
Without realizing it, the woman seemed to have become even more alluring.
Both Qin Chu and Athena were extremely satisfied.
However, no matter how much Athena didn't want to wake up from this beautiful dream, there are limits to human strength. Although Qin Chu's Holy Light healed her wounds, the excessive blood loss also affected Athena's physical strength.
She finally couldn't hold on any longer and leaned against Qin Chu's chest, breathing softly. Some messy strands of hair, soaked with sweat, clung to her fair cheeks, and her eyes still held a hint of confusion.
After the pleasure subsided, a strong sense of fear swept over her once more, and her full body trembled uncontrollably. At this moment, Athena looked exceptionally pitiful... except for Qin Chu.
A sense of fear and emptiness lingered in Athena's mind; she even felt an urge to cry. What was she doing?
Looking at the woman in his arms, Qin Chu's first thought was that it would be perfect to have a cigarette right now, but unfortunately, there wasn't one in this world.
Qin Chu mentally berated himself and adjusted his voice. "Athena, can you tell me now what exactly happened?"
Athena curled up in a ball. Hearing Qin Chu's deep, hoarse voice, her body shuddered involuntarily, as if she were recalling the terrifying scene from just now.
The feeling of being watched by some mysterious being made Athena's hair stand on end, and a layer of fine goosebumps immediately appeared on her fair and delicate skin.
Athena's reaction made Qin Chu somewhat suspicious. He knew Athena quite well; this woman appeared languid and charming, but in reality, she had a strong and resilient personality. For her to be able to frighten Athena like this, she must be something extraordinary.
Qin Chu didn't speak, but continued to gaze at Athena while gently putting his arm around Athena shoulder. Qin Chu's tenderness seemed to have some effect, as Athena's trembling subsided slightly.
After a few seconds, Athena slowly spoke, "Master..."
When no one else is around, Athena will refer to Qin Chu as her master.
"In the secret chamber of the Snowlink Mountains, I saw a toad-like statue and a stone slab covered with ancient characters."
"At the time, I sensed that something was wrong with the secret chamber and the statue, that it was dangerous, so I used magic to record the words on the stone tablet, and then set fire to the secret chamber and the statue, burning them all down."
"Just as the flames leaped, I seemed to see that toad-like statue grinning at me from within the sea of fire..."
Qin Chu roughly imagined that scene and felt his scalp tingle.
The scene was indeed somewhat eerie, then a thought struck him, "Athena, you wouldn't be studying the writing on that stone tablet, would you?"
Athena nodded. "These past few days, I've been studying the ancient writing on that stone tablet. So far, what I can accurately understand and infer accounts for about one-tenth of the content on the tablet..."
"Just now, as I continued studying those texts, I suddenly heard a strange voice beside my ear..."
Athena told Qin Chu everything, from the whispers in her ear to the dense swarms of insects she saw, and how she had managed to escape the encroachment, without holding anything back.
After listening, Qin Chu rubbed his forehead helplessly. Ancient script? That's not something you can just study casually, especially one brought from such a strange place.
Qin Chu was absolutely certain that Athena was being watched by some Evil God, demon, or strange being.
Whether it is one of the seven in the Void is currently uncertain.
However, Athena's will is truly terrifying.
No wonder the Daughter of Death praised him as the most resilient soul she had ever seen.
Even when corrupted by a strange entity, she was still able to break free and regain her sanity through her own will. If it were anyone else, even beings like Wadsworth or Augustus, they might not be able to do what Athena did.
Qin Chu leaned back slightly against the headboard. "Where's the stone slab you made the rubbings of?"
Athena was slightly startled. "Master, what do you want to do? Could it be... please don't, I might very well be..."
Qin Chu grinned and gently patted Athena's pale leg. "Go get it, don't worry about me."
There was nothing he could do; Qin Chu was the type who was already taken.
The body has been infested with Goddess's Hair Holy Light's hair, as well as a mysterious Sapling.
Neither of these two are kind-hearted individuals. The eldest prince's mother, Mavis, was capable of devouring Evil God's offspring born into this world.
Even if some strange entity wanted to erode his body, it would first have to ask those two for their consent.
Athena didn't want Qin Chu to be exposed to these dangers, but in the end she couldn't persuade Qin Chu otherwise. She swayed off the bed, intending to grab a piece of clothing to cover her ample body.
But considering that Qin Chu had seen every inch of her skin, she gave up.
Athena brought along the stone tablets she had made, and in order to preserve the original appearance as much as possible, she did not choose to use paper and pen to make a copy.
"Be careful..." Athena carefully instructed Qin Chu as the cold stone slab was handed to him.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Qin Chu replied as he took the stone slab. But after just one glance Qin Chu, he couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of saliva.
"Holy shit."
He couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
Qin Chu's reaction startled Athena, and a wave of worry washed over her. "Master, what's wrong?"
She didn't understand. Her relationship with Qin Chu was clearly just a transaction, and she was practically forced to stay by Qin Chu's side. So why was she now so concerned about this man?
Qin Chu was panting heavily. After a long while, Qin Chu finally looked up from the stone slab in front of him, his face filled with disbelief as he looked at Athena: "Athena, you just said that there are ancient characters on this?"
Athena nodded. "This is the Gulam, which was lost a thousand years ago."
"This script is extremely mysterious. No one knows who invented it. According to historical records, it briefly appeared on the continent a thousand years ago, but because it was too complex and extremely difficult to write and read, it was quickly lost."
Qin Chu's expression grew increasingly strange as he glanced at the words on the stone slab.
Right on the first row, there were several large characters.
"All things decay, but all living beings do not perish?"
Hearing the murmurs from Qin Chu's mouth, Athena shuddered.
She had heard a similar sound when she was being corrupted by the mysterious entity before, so how could these words come from Qin Chu's mouth?
Could it be that Qin Chu can decipher this mysterious Gulam?
Athena's chest was filled with admiration. He was truly worthy of his master and Hero.
The Gulam is a language that almost no scholar in the entire Skyvault Continent can decipher. Yet, the Hero, a distinguished guest from another world, can understand the meaning of the Gulam. This is truly amazing.
For a moment, her big eyes were filled with little stars.
Qin Chu saw Athena's reaction clearly and felt speechless.
Of course he recognizes it! What the hell is this Gulam? It's clearly Chinese characters!
Is there any difference whatsoever between it and modern simplified Chinese characters?
How could simplified Chinese characters appear on the Skyvault Continent? For a moment, Qin Chu felt a headache coming on, as if things had become a little more complicated.
Wait a minute, this so-called Gulam appeared briefly a thousand years ago and then quickly disappeared. A thousand years ago was also the time of the Great War of the Gods... Could it be that a human from Earth, perhaps even one of our own, was summoned to this world a thousand years ago?
It seems that the one who threw the villagers into this world wasn't a goddess, but rather an evil Evil God wielding malevolent power?
And this so-called Gulam was left behind by this fellow villager.
However, due to its extreme difficulty in learning, it ultimately failed to be passed down.
Qin Chu wanted to know more, so he quickly continued reading, but unfortunately, the following content was basically exaggerated flattery, with the obsequious language comparable to that of the Old Immortal Xingxiu's disciple.
This guy actually called that Evil God a benevolent father?
How could they be so shameless? It gave Qin Chu goosebumps all over.
However, through these flattering praises, I still managed to glean some information.
The so-called benevolent father is a being with savage and invincible power, but his greatest strength lies in the Plague born from bacteria and viruses, and in misfortune that is like a curse.
God of Plague and Misfortune!
Athena simply looked at Qin Chu quietly, with some concern.
After a long while, Qin Chu suddenly put down the stone slab, took a deep breath, and turned his gaze to Athena: "Athena, you may need treatment."

Chapter 318 Sylph Guides Athena (3)
Athena's situation is clearly due to being Evil God's Corruption, similar to that of Karthus and Sylph.
God of Plague and Misfortune!
Just from that name, you can tell it's definitely not a good thing.
Unfortunately, there is only one stone tablet with the Gulam, and the content is limited. If more could be found, it might help Qin Chu to deepen their understanding of everything that happened a thousand years ago.
In the Skyvault Continent, guests from other worlds have only appeared in recent years, as Magic Creature have proliferated and Hero have begun to be summoned.
There were absolutely no records of visitors from another world before this, but simplified Chinese characters actually appeared a thousand years ago, and it was even the long-lost Gulam.
Qin Chu strongly suspected that some of his fellow villagers might have participated in the war a thousand years ago.
This Skyvault Continent has probably already been riddled with holes by various transmigrators who have traveled back and forth through it.
This made Qin Chu even more curious, and he became increasingly intrigued by the so-called truth.
