Yuri and Ganko trudged through the dark world for dozens of minutes.
He was lucky to be able to intercept a taxi that didn't notice the approaching abnormality. In short, he could quickly return to Shiba Park's Shichixiong Shrine.
In the premises of this shrine, there was a law firm that looked like a bungalow.
In short, this room was where Yuri knew the Gorgon Stone was placed. It was her personal room, which was highly anticipated, so she could use it freely.
He asked Ganko to wait in the courtyard while Yuri entered the office.
When he took back the Gorgon's Stone, Ganko was holding his phone and talking about the current situation. It was very likely that the other party was a member of the same committee.
"Is this a problematic god relic? The Naga God's regenerative ability is troublesome again."
After three minutes, Gan Po hung up the phone.
Ganko reported back the conversation with the Kyuto Kyuto, the appearance of the Italian girl who claimed to be his lover, and the arrival of the goddess Athena.
Even in such an extraordinary situation, Agamasu Fuyuma could be so egoistic.
However, such a man could become the agent of the compilation committee.
Only those who had a certain level of cultivation in curses, knew some kind of martial arts, and were familiar with the mysteries and myths of ancient and modern times seemed to be like this. It should be.
"This god relic is called Gorgon's Stone. I think it was unearthed in Africa. It's strange that it has become something related to the Greek goddess. That's right, as expected."
Yuri raised a question without much anticipation.
Perhaps he would get some answers. With this level of emotion.
"Ah, that's not right. This was not strange. According to Plato, the Greek goddess Athena and the Libya goddess Nath are the same god. That's all."
"Plato?"
Yuri couldn't help but look at Ganko, who gave a simple answer.
As expected of an official editor. Compared to himself, he had an unattainable wealth of knowledge.
"Yes, it is indeed the Timaio Chapter. It was a famous saying in ancient Greece. Herodotus is also working on something tiring. 'Almost all Greek gods were found from foreign countries' seemed to be the case.”
Yuri was deeply impressed by this explanation.
As a witch, she had received an elite education and was more knowledgeable than other girls of the same age, but she had not yet touched on the content of ancient Greece.
"Originally, most of the divine warriors in Greek mythology were introduced from this and that place in the ancient world. If he traced his birthplace, he could go to Egypt, Babylon, Syria even Egypt. It was the result of introducing myths from various places and ethnic groups for his own use.”
"I see. I really don't know."
"It's nothing. It's just a bad habit of the Japanese. The reason why I have been closed off in Japan is that my own culture has deteriorated due to the influence of other ethnic groups, making me feel alienated. That's right, that's right. Take the example of the Koguryo family defeating the god Veleslana. If we trace back to the origin, even the Bible will be involved."
"Eh? Really?"
The ancient Persian god of war who had ten incarnations.
Why did the God of Central Asia appear in the world's best-selling book?
"Strictly speaking, they should be the ancient ancestors of that Lord God. As mentioned before, Veleslana was the God of Victory that combined Hercules. Then Hercules was the god who ruled over all the heroic gods. One of the most ancient archetypes was Barr, the God of Storms, known as the Ancient Canaan. This god was described in the Old Bible as the pagan evil god Baal. Zebub (the God of Storm and Rain), and later in the Bible's New Bible, the Great Demon Beelzebub (Little T: Lord of the Flies =_=) appeared.”
"In other words, the African goddess Nat changed her name to Athena? Is that what you mean?"
Ganpo smiled ambiguously at this question.
"What should we do next? As for this, I'm not a professional, so I shouldn't rely too much on my words. In fact, that's Athena's problem. This goddess wasn't Nat. Instead, she seemed to have a deeper relationship with Medusa.”
"Perseus, who defeated Medusa, is indeed a hero protected by Athena.”
Yuri recalled a famous passage from Greek mythology.
The witch Medusa whose hair was formed by countless snakes and who could turn a human into stone with just a glance. Perseus cut off her head and offered it to Athena.
"Because of this myth, it hinted at the bond between Medusa and Athena. After offering Medusa's head, Medusa could only stay by Athena's side. Did you know? Since ancient times, the statue of the goddess Athena would always have a statue of Medusa carved on it.”
In this way, Medusa would always be by Athena's side.
Compared to their friendship, they were connected by a stronger fate.
"By the way, if you look for Medusa at the beginning, you will find that she is the Goddess of Earth born in North Africa. That's right, it's not a demon."
In order to belittle the gods of other races, they were listed as evil monsters in the myths. Needless to say, at the end of the story, they would all be defeated by the crusade.
Such man-made monsters could be seen everywhere in ancient and modern myths.
"Besides Medusa, there are many other goddesses that are related to Athena. In short, there were many similar guys!”
"What do you mean by similar?"
Yuri continued to ask Ganko, who seemed to be in trouble.
Nonsense that had nothing to do with the core.
Although it had nothing to do with this, he felt that this topic was very important. It was not driven by curiosity, but the witch's inspiration told her.
"It means a goddess with a similar name to Athena. In southern Europe, North Africa, Turkey, and the Syria coast, there were many goddesses with names similar to Athena. There was Athena, Yatana, Yaserat, Yacete, Yate. A god like Anna. By the way, the sister of the Baal God mentioned earlier was a female war god called Yanate. This is also a similar name."
"Sister Goddess of Battles!"
In Yuri's mind, she thought of all kinds of situations.
The younger sister, daughter, and wife of the King Sovereign. Goddess of War, Snake Goddess, Life Goddess. "Language similarities, such as the pronunciation of names, are not stupid. Originally, when the same name was widely spread, it would obtain similar names with local characteristics in various places. It was not unnatural to think so.”
At this point, Gan Po took a deep breath.
A bitter smile appeared on his face. Perhaps he had said too much nonsense, he thought.
"Well, just think of Athena as an owl. This would explain the reason why the darkness spread and what happened around them. That's right, that's right. I heard about the field investigation report on the phone just now.”
"In the Umbral Realm?”
"That's right. Athena was moving at high speed from Chiba to the city center. The target was naturally the Gorgon's Stone. When you move, you expand your Umbral Realm and attract owls. It feels like a typhoon."
After Gan Po made a stupid joke.
The courtyard of the Seven Heroes Shrine had been completely sealed off by darkness.
There were many greenery around the city center. Groups of towering buildings emitted their usual depressing light.
If the street lights were on, the neon lights of the large shops would be even more dazzling.
Even though night had arrived, the surroundings should still be very bright. But now, the darkness of the night had deepened. Everywhere was dark.
Only the half moon shining in the sky, slightly illuminating the earth
"Sigh, I really can't stand it. Have I already entered the range of the goddess 'influence? This is really…I really don't want the Demon King to appear in the end.”
Gan Po, who had been swallowed by the darkness, said weakly.
"This aura belongs to the God of Darkness. Also, the Gorgon's Stone of the Snake Seal. It was a god relic related to the earth. A goddess who was related to both earth and darkness.”
Yuri whispered as she looked at the sky above the courtyard.
In order to call out to her, the jade-like darkness of the night expanded in front of her.
"Athena's messenger owl, a bird that is thought to represent bad luck and bad omens if it appears at night. It was a sacred bird worshipped by the opposite side as a symbol of wisdom. Since ancient times, there had always been symbols that represented holiness and ferocity. What was the answer to the combination of a snake and an owl?”
Gan Po complained.
Although he couldn't see his figure, his aura and voice were close.
The other clergymen who seemed to have noticed something strange also walked out of the courtyard.
He didn't seem to be someone he could rely on, but there was nothing he could do. How many talents could he find in this country to fight against the God of Disobedience?
The people nearby couldn't even make out what had happened.
Yuri couldn't help but shiver.
Originally, the dark night was something that humans were afraid of. The reason why he had forgotten this was because the electric light had driven away the darkness. Fear of the night was a human instinct.
Just now, he had spent a lot of effort to escape from the Dark Domain.
They held onto the walls and guardrails, relying on the only moonlight to walk. There was nothing out of the ordinary. There should be a path everywhere, but it was very taxing.
It seemed that the night was very annoying and would not show mercy to humans.
"Please take a look at this. I can barely use it if it's fire.”
Suddenly, a warm orange light appeared.
Gan Po took out a lighter and lit it. However, its fire quickly burned out.
"Something that gives off light-that is to say, light and fire have lost their power?”
"That's what I mean. It was a terrifyingly powerful dark attribute. As expected of the God of Disobedience.”
Regardless of the era or country, it was humans who gave gods names and myths.
A powerful god who threatened humans and sometimes gave them grace.
In the primitive era, they had no names.
Human knowledge indifferently found the posture of God in the vast sky and underground, fearing the storms and floods brought by God's anger, worshiping dangerous and powerful beasts as if they were the incarnation of God.
However, as time passed, humans gave the gods names and created myths for them.
For example, the creator of the earth, Iluvetta. Heracles, the God of Battlefield. The Goddess of Fertility.
For example, Ogun, the God of Struggle and Smelting. At the same time, he was the violent God of Warriors and the God of Destruction, Tezca Teripoca.
For example, the wanderer who chased after the sky. Vishnu with twelve incarnations.
There were gods as many as stars.
They were all born from the hands of humans.
It could be said that these rituals were created by the humble humans to prevent the divine might of the gods from being too powerful.
Gods who had names and myths would not do anything beyond those two things. When they gave favors to humans and received rewards, they would act according to their duties.
Therefore, people could prepare themselves for God's threats or blessings.
However, if there was a God who made a name that surpassed the meaning of the name and myth that he had obtained.
If the gods returned to the primitive times with fewer mythological restrictions.
Such a god was called the God of Disobedience.
They ran counter to the myths woven by humans and wandered on the ground. Wandering in the country that gave its name to its people was like water flowing on a land without green.
One day, the God of Disobedience would bring disaster to the human world.
If the Sun God descended, the entire world would become extremely hot.
If the God of the Sea descended, the entire world would be swallowed by the waves and sink to the bottom of the sea.
If the God of Hell descended, the plague would spread to every corner of the world, turning the world into a city of death.
If the God of Judgement descended, then the people living here would suffer all kinds of punishments.
As long as it exceeded a little, it would have such an impact on the world. The God of Disaster, who created his own posture according to his own preferences, was the God of Disobedience.
"However, even the car stopped in the dark. What's going on? Fortunately, they had all stopped, so there was no accident.”
Yuri confirmed the suspicion.
