Chapter 345: Page 345

Hilde, lying in the shade of a tree, looked up at the sky.

She also didn't know whether she could directly see the location of the divine realm from here.

Maybe I can see it, maybe I can't, Hilde couldn't help but think.

Artemis leaned against him tightly, her eyes closed gently, and she was obviously asleep. Her golden hair spread out like a fan, flat on the green grass. Hilde turned her head and looked at Artemis's peaceful sleeping face. She did not disturb Artemis, but stretched out her hand and gently placed it on her slender waist.

"elder sister……"

Artemis's sleep talk.

Hilde was somewhat touched.

Perhaps, after Athena died in another space.

Artemis must have been missing her sister.

For Artemis, she loved Athena, not Hilde, but there was nothing she could do about it. And today, Hilde knew in her heart that even if Artemis said that there was no problem, in fact, she knew the danger of this trip better than anyone else. The reason for making this request was that Artemis had already prepared herself not to come back. Since she might not be able to come back, she might as well fulfill her wish.

At this moment, being intimate with a goddess who didn't love him was obviously not what Hilde should do. But thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this was the only thing Hilde could do for Artemis. Calling her by her nickname, like Athena, gently accommodating her coquetry and dependence, and letting her experience unprecedented pleasure again and again, until her consciousness blurred, she murmured Sister Athena, as if the silver-haired girl who left many kiss marks on her body was Athena herself.

how can that be possible.

When she wakes up, it will be the time to wake up from the dream.

So, get some more sleep.

Hilde looked at the bruises on her body and couldn't help but move forward and place a kiss on Artemis' forehead.

And Artemis seemed to feel something in her dream.

The Goddess Going to the Divine Realm

She smiled sweetly, curled up, and continued to sleep.

When it was getting a little dark.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

Artemis greedily pressed Hilde beneath her.

Hilde did not resist, and let her open her teeth, tasting herself as if she were tasting the most delicious thing in the world. Artemis's breath blew on her face, a little itchy, but very gentle. After a while, Artemis suddenly stopped moving, she slowly stood up, and looked outside where the sun was gradually setting.

"Phobe?"

"Okay, thank you."

Artemis looked at Hilde who was pinned under her and gave a helpless smile.

“I got a little addicted to it.”

"……It's fine."

"I have fulfilled my wish. Although it may not be real, being with you is really like being with my sister." Artemis gently wiped the saliva from her lips and looked at Hilde with a wry smile. "Anyway, thank you for accepting my crazy and shameless request."

“For me, this is a blessing.”

Hilde could only say:

"There are so few opportunities to spend a night with a real goddess."

"If I come back alive, would you still be willing to do this?"

"of course."

Hilde answered bluntly.

"So, you must come back alive."

"Don't worry, we are just rescuing someone, how could we possibly encounter danger? The worst that can happen is that we will be caught and locked up. It won't be long before you are free again." Artemis acted as if she didn't care. "But remember what you said just now. If I come back, we can still do this happy thing, right?"

"Ah, um."

Hilde was used to it.

That's how it is in Greece.

Just look at it positively.

However, Artemis smiled and continued, "Then, if you want to do something next, do it as Hilde."

"Is this good?"

"I said, my wish has come true. For me, I have no regrets anymore. I always treated you as Sister Athena, but I just treated you as a tool. In the end, I became the god I hate the most. Besides, I don't hate you myself." Having said that, Artemis suddenly came over and kissed Hilde again. There was no doubt that the object of this kiss was not the pretend Athena, but Hilde herself.

No one knew what Artemis was thinking, but since she said so, Hilde naturally couldn't refuse. So, the two of them kissed for a few minutes, and finally Artemis gently pushed Hilde away, smiled and said, "Then, I'll take care of Sophia, and Tomyris, please take good care of her. To me, she is like my sister, like my daughter, you know."

"what about me?"

Hilde couldn't help but ask.

"You...a like-minded comrade."

"I have no regrets in my life to receive such an evaluation from you."

"Hilde."

Artemis suddenly changed the subject.

"Although you are only a mortal, compared to the gods who have a lifespan of thousands of years, you are just a speck of dust in this world, insignificant. However, your wisdom can transcend time and create miracles that even the gods would be astonished at. Remember, Hilde, no matter what kind of setbacks you encounter in the future, don't give up your wisdom. This world needs people like you, and it also needs your wisdom to play a role."

"I will keep your teachings in mind."

"Okay, then I'm relieved."

Artemis nodded and looked in the direction of the military camp.

"Next, I won't go back."

"…Aren't you going to say goodbye?"

"Yes, Tomyris will definitely be in a worse mood when she sees me. Just tell her that I am leaving. Don't explain anything to her. Any explanation will only make Tomyris think too much. What she needs to do now is to help you stabilize the current situation wholeheartedly, instead of figuring out whether I have abandoned her or not."

"Okay, I understand."

Hilde hesitated.

Then she took a step forward and kissed Artemis.

"This time, I took the initiative. Remember, you must come back alive."

"……Yes."

Artemis smiled and nodded slightly.

However, this nod did not seem so certain.

Hilde didn't ask any more questions, but just gently let go of his hand.

"So, goodbye."

"Okay... Sissi."

Artemis left her smile, then turned around and walked in another direction. Hilde just stood there, watching Artemis disappear from her sight. When Artemis's breath really disappeared in the forest, Hilde suddenly felt an indescribable sense of loss.

Hilde still holds a pessimistic attitude towards Artemis' plan to rescue Sophia, but... she also understands Artemis' intention. On the one hand, Artemis also wants to prevent Zeus from obtaining information and evidence related to the goddess of night, Nyx. On the other hand, she also wants to prove that she is a god who loves people and is worthy of being loved. She is not the god who treats humans as pawns, but a god who can really take action for the people she cares about.

it's dark.

Hilde looked at the starry sky, especially the bright moon.

That represents the moon of Artemis.

Could you please bless her to move forward smoothly?

Thinking of this, Hilde returned to the barracks.

Hilde suddenly disappeared for most of the day, which made Xerxes and Dione very worried. However, Xerxes was relieved to see Hilde return safely. Moreover, to Xerxes' surprise, she found that Hilde, who was originally stiff and cold, seemed to have recovered a lot now, at least like the Hilde that Xerxes was familiar with, and now she has become the same as before.

"Sissi, are you okay?"

"I'm very good."

Hilde smiled bitterly and looked at the three of them.

"Sorry for making you worry."

"I'm glad you're okay, really."

"I want to tell you something."

Hilde looked at Tomyris who was standing beside her, and Tomyris obviously didn't expect that what Hilde said next had a lot to do with Artemis. When Hilde announced this, Tomyris just raised her head but didn't say much.

What Hield should do in the fourth quarter of the ninth adjustment

She was just a little curious, why was Hilde able to recover so quickly?

Hilde said calmly:

"That's the thing."

So, Hilde directly told Artemis about going to rescue Sophia.

When Xerxes, Dione, and Tomyris heard what Hilde said, they were all shocked. They obviously didn't expect that Artemis would do such a dangerous thing for Sophia, or for Hilde and her own purpose.

"It will be dangerous for her to return to Mount Olympus!"

Tomyris reacted immediately.

"Where is she! I want to go with her."

"She's gone."

Hilde said helplessly:

"Besides, you'd just be going to die if you went."

"She is courting death!"

Tomyris didn't seem to realize that her emotions suddenly became very intense. Hilde didn't intend to point it out. She made a gesture to Xerxes, and Xerxes understood and left with Dione. When only Hilde and Tomyris were left in the tent, Hilde said, "Artemis, she has always felt guilty for not insisting on your matter, but she doesn't intend to explain. Including this rescue of Sophia, it was not for you or me, but for herself."

"But……"

Tomyris couldn't accept it.

"Under the current circumstances, if she goes back..."

"She is in danger, but she is also a god."

Hilde frowned slightly, with a hint of annoyance on his face.

"The power of the gods is naturally not something that mortals like us can control. If we enter the realm of the gods, we will only end up dead. But she is different. Artemis knows more about the realm of the gods than we know about our own home. She doesn't want the clues related to Sophia, especially the information related to the goddess of night Nyx, to fall into the hands of Zeus and Hera, so she wants to stop Hera."

"I see."

Tomyris clenched the fork tightly in her hand.

"After all, I am still a burden to her."

"Tomyris..."

"Thank you, Sissi."

Tomyris lowered her head, looking very depressed.

She knew in her heart that it was not right for her to lose her temper with Artemis, but Tomyris had been forcibly injected with divine power by Hades in front of Artemis. This kind of humiliation and frustration was something Tomyris had never experienced before. She looked calm now, but this incident directly shattered what Tomyris had insisted on for so many years, completely tore her life apart, and then threw it on the ground and trampled it.

As for Artemis's actions, whether it was for atonement, for herself, or for other reasons, Tomyris, who had calmed down, didn't want to care. She knew that Hilde had just winked at Dione and Xerxes to leave and give them some space to communicate. But Tomyris didn't intend to communicate about this matter. Her thanks directly interrupted the possibility of Hilde continuing to talk.

But Hilde didn't stop.

She simply said:

"Artemis, you may not be able to come back this time."

"...Isn't this obvious? Betraying the gods of Olympus and returning to the Holy Mount Olympus, how absurd!"

Tomyris bit her lip tightly.

The shaking of her hands holding the fork proved that she was in great confusion.

"But we can't give up hope, right? If we give up hope now... then it's meaningless. Artemis didn't go there with the intention of dying. She has her own intentions and plans. She knows exactly what she's doing and the possible consequences. Whether it succeeds or fails, this may be the only way we can choose."

"Sissi..."
