"Promise, how about dedicating this painting to me?"
"So, your dream is to become a hero and fall like a meteor, leaving an indelible mark on the world."
"Is that so? Then I, Athena, will grant you such honor!"
"I swear to you,"
"I, Athena, the goddess of wisdom, will witness and guide you to become the most brilliant...
The night at the izakaya was bustling and noisy with people coming and going.
In a private room of an Izakaya called "Snow Cherry," warm-colored lights bathed everyone's smiling faces like water.
As they clinked glasses and drank, the sparkling liquor splashed onto the exquisite dishes that were already half-eaten on the table.
...
Hearing Sasaki's words, Yuuka, although knowing they were false, still felt a surge of happiness and gratitude.
Because even if the words were false, they were still coming from his mouth.
At the same time, her attention was diverted, and she did not notice the loopholes in Sasaki's statement.
It's not that she's stupid or s...
"Respected mother, my great mother goddess, I want to ask you something."
In the temple adorned with various blooming flowers, Persephone, the Queen of the Underworld, looked seriously at Demeter and asked, "Am I your daughter?"
In the courtyard pavilion, Demeter, with golden hair and purple eyes, wearing a crown woven from golden ...
"Yuuka, sit here, over here."
"Yuuka, you're really so slow."
It was clear that Tachibana Yuuka was very popular at school.
The private room had four tables, each seating five or six people, mostly boys.
Their gazes were like scanners, subtly or boldly sizing up this famous and well-liked girl from school.
Perh...
Raising his eyelids, looking at the girl, who was talking nonsense in a serious tone,
Although Sasaki wanted to laugh, he still pretended to be like, "Sister, you are so nice." While putting his arm around her slender waist and cheek close to her ear.
In response to his coquettishness, Yuuka smiled like a little fox who had just ea...
"How would I know? If you really don't know what to dedicate, then dedicate yourself to them." Hecate answered casually.
After arriving at the designated location, accompanied by a familiar feeling, he was embraced by a group of flying Hades butterflies.
The butterflies dispersed, and when Promise opened his eyes again, he had alr...
Hecate, the goddess of crossroads and magic, is a unique figure in Greek mythology, being one of the rare unmarried goddesses.
She is exceptional for two reasons: firstly, she doesn’t belong to either the Underworld or the heavens.
She exists independently but can move freely between realms.
Secondly, her powers are sign...
But that knowing look of yours says it all!
Mentally grumbling, Sasaki didn't react to her spreading herself out on his bed.
All his comics, whether suitable or not, were stored in the downstairs storeroom.
In this room, the only untouchable spot was the storage compartment above the wardrobe.
Even though he felt conf...
The moonlight shone through the window, illuminating the sleeping goddess.
Even as she slept, one side of her face was covered by a black mask, hiding her features.
But at such a close distance, with her completely unguarded, Promise had to admit that his eyes found it hard to leave her.
Hephaestus might be considered the ug...
By the time he organized Yuuka’s clothes, it was already noon.
Going downstairs, he saw no sign of Otome or Rinka in the living room, indicating they had gone home for lunch.
With Otome’s parents back, it wasn’t appropriate for her to linger at Sasaki’s house like she did as a child.
Especially with Aunt Kyouka movin...
Promise woke up.
When he awoke, he noticed the moonlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and upon sitting up, he found his left hand shackled with a silver chain.
The other end of the chain was fastened to the foot of Hephaestus's bed.
"Don't waste your energy trying to break free; you can't," Hephaestus's c...
In the Temple of Hephaestus,
A maid doll with long flaxen hair pushed Hephaestus in a wooden wheelchair along the corridor inside the temple, while Promise followed quietly behind them.
He scanned the temple and quickly noticed that something was wrong.
Although many people were seen walking and busy along the way, the entir...
Inside Hephaestus' temple, night had fallen.
The moonlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating the room and the beautiful girl lying on the bed.
She wore a thin nightgown, her long golden hair cascading over the pristine white bed.
The moonlight highlighted her delicate features, her eyelashes tremb...
"A social gathering?" Sasaki opened his eyes, turned over to face the inside, and asked while inhaling the faint fragrance emanating from her body, "What kind of social gathering?"
"It's a social gathering between the tennis club and other school clubs. We're just having a meal together."
"Hmm, what time should we go?"
"Uh.....
“Um... Beautiful and kind Hera, what brings you here?” Promise cautiously asked, breaking the silence as Hera continued to look at him without speaking.
Hera did not respond immediately.
Instead, she looked around and walked over to a large stone, motioning for Promise to come over.
Once he approached, she made him sit...
In the Temple of Demeter, the Goddess of Agriculture.
Hera, who had just arrived, wore a peculiar expression as she watched Demeter fuss over and care for Promise.
However seeing him safe, she sighed in relief but couldn't help feeling amused, so she found an excuse to send Promise away temporarily.
Then she walked along th...
Under the starlit night, Promise sat on Pegasus, holding the reins, and spoke to the winged horse against the gentle night breeze.
Pegasus turned its head to look at the young man, a human-like confusion in its eyes.
"You see, didn't I accidentally tear your painting?" Promise said, showing an embarrassed expression.
Pegasus...
Promise excitedly walked towards Daphne, who had transformed into a laurel tree.
And Daphne, seemingly guessing Promise's thoughts, irritably extended a branch to hit the boy on the head.
No sooner had she done so Daphne realised she was being targeted.
Looking up, she saw the Moon Goddess Artemis pouting, her face full of ...
Not only did it startle Hades, but it also startled Promise.
After talking for a long time, she reluctantly agreed to stay.
Eurydice, who was observing the scene from the side, had a very subtle expression on her face.
She wanted to speak but hesitated, not knowing what to say.
"Additionally, esteemed Lord of the Und...
Inside the temple on Mount Olympus, Hermes witnessed the scene with a subtle expression and couldn't help but speak.
Incidentally, the seven-string lyre of Apollo, the god of light, was crafted by him and given to Apollo.
Upon hearing Hermes’ suggestion, Apollo did not object; in fact, he nodded, showing an expression that seeme...
The breeze blowing in from the window gently fluttered the curtains.
Her right leg, crossed over her left knee, was long and straight.
The toes, aligned with the black seam of the socks, and the slender, soft calf traced an elegant and refined curve in the air.
The naturally arched foot, like a sharp sickle, captured the he...
Mount Olympus,
Within the temple.
"What exactly... happened?" The majestic goddess, Queen Hera, looked into the Underworld at the smiling boy who seemed to be part of the painting, her eyes filled with confusion.
At this moment, she actually felt some changes vaguely but didn't understand them.
Even the clever and cun...
Facing such an outrageous request from his destiny-bound counterpart, Night generously chose to satisfy her curiosity until she was completely content...
He nipped at her lip, coaxing little whimpers of
desire out of her as she pressed against him.
Though he was a virgin in this life, the same wasn't the case for his previous one.<...
No one disliked a sensible, well-mannered, and pretty girl.
So upon seeing Sakuragi Otome, Tachibana Kyouka affectionately beamed as if she were looking at her own daughter.
Facing her lover's 'elders', Otome was also very courteous.
She continuously served tea to Kyouka.
Seeing the women in such a harmonious and happ...
At this moment, Promise's heart was hesitating,
Yes, he was hesitating.
Feeling his body getting worse, he became increasingly unsure how much longer he could hold on, so he hesitated whether or not to tear up the painting in his hands.
Do you remember the painting of the hundred-eyed giant Argus?
Promise tore it up, ...
Promise accepted the test.
In fact, no matter what kind of trial the goddess Demeter gives him now, he would choose to accept it.
However, his vision and hearing were not sealed at this time because Demeter did not have such ability.
And someone was needed to take them to the underworld to undergo this trial.
Therefor...
In the quiet of the night, the slave sisters had prepared a bath for Night, ready to assist him.
It was then that Night remembered to ask their names.
“What are your names?”
“Master, my original name is Amy…”
“Master, my original name is Ella…”
They only mentioned their first names, not their su...
"Mm, Sister Yuuka is as beautiful as ever~"
His sincere and direct compliment took her by surprise.
After all, although he had stared at her dazedly like any normal male before, he had never praised her so straightforwardly.
Blinking her eyes in a mix of curiosity and surprise, noticing her younger brother's change, Yuuka cr...
Even their names were taken away, let alone their natural right to reproduce.
Even if they secretly conceived a child, the newborn would become the master's private property, yet another slave.
Generations trapped in despair with no way out!
Such extreme exploitation often led to Rome’s own downfall.
Night understoo...
