Mythology: Spiritual Ruler - Chapter 535
“…So, this is roughly what happened.”
“His name is Dionysus, a hero whose reputation is unknown to the world. He will be our companion on the next journey.”
“And they are the friends I made along the way, and they will also embark on the journey with me later.”
Returning to the silver shuttle, Hercules introduced the identities of the people around him to Prometheus and Amon.
Beside him, the handsome black-haired Dionysus waved with a smile on his face.
Before, in the nameless woodland, Zephyros did not stay for long.
He seemed to be in a hurry to do something, so he just left after a quick explanation, leaving the great hero and Dionysus who walked out from the side looking at each other.
From each other, they both felt the kind of blood-related intimacy.
The latter knew why this was the case, after all, the great hero was his half-brother. However, Hercules did not know this, so he just gave a solemn warning.
“Dionysus, nice to meet you.”
“Although I don’t know why you joined my team, I still welcome you to join. It’s just that each of us has a different past and is heading towards the same goal for different reasons.”
“Others won’t ask about your story, but I hope you won’t ask about others’ unless they tell you voluntarily.”
“If you are willing to accept what I say, then from now on we are companions.”
On the way back to the shuttle, Hercules warned, and Dionysus followed his advice.
He just smiled and told the hero that he had no opinion on this.
As long as everyone is willing to drink with him, they are his best friends.
“I am Dionysus, and I am very happy to travel west with you.”
Sweeping Amon and Prometheus, Dionysus paused for a moment on the latter.
He didn’t see through the changes of the foresight, but his senses that were born different from ordinary people still made him a little concerned.
But as Hercules said, everyone has a different past, even himself.
So Dionysus just smiled and stretched out his hand to Prometheus… and then shook it with another hand that was stretched out from the side.
“It’s a pleasure to travel with you, Mr. Dionysus, my name is Amon.”
With an eager and intimate look in his eyes, Amon waved his arm vigorously.
“If you need any help in the future, you can come to me, and I will do my best to help.”
“… Thank you very much, Mr. Amon.”
Dionysus was stunned for a moment after reading this name that did not quite fit Chaos’s pronunciation habits, and then responded with a smile.
Amon’s enthusiasm surprised him a little, but he did not reject this enthusiasm.
Before coming, he did not expect Hercules to have friends who traveled with him. However, heroes of all ages were not alone, so Dionysus accepted it easily.
In this case, as an outsider who wants to integrate into the group, he must first build a good relationship with everyone.
So facing Amon’s enthusiasm, Dionysus was not surprised but happy. There is never a lack of warm and hospitable people in the world, and he is never an indifferent person.
So Dionysus also waved his arm and responded with an eager smile.

Swoosh…
Night fell, and the stars twinkled.
The moon rose from the east and moved along the white path in the sky.
And on the earth, the cities dotted with stars shone brightly, as if contrasting with the stars in the sky.
At a certain moment, there was even a little light rising from the east of the earth, like the reverse side of a meteor, rushing straight into the vast night sky.
Ancient rumors say that it takes nine days and nine nights to fall from the sky of Mount Olympus to the ground, and few people can verify its truth.
However, the height from the human world to the peak of the sacred mountain does cross nine layers of clouds.
The pale silver star shuttle rushed straight into the sky, and the clouds passed by in an instant.
Until it broke through a certain layer of invisible shackles, it finally crashed into the starry sky.
Instantly, countless starlights came from all directions, as if covering the silver shuttle with a shell, pulling it faster and faster while resisting the ubiquitous energy surge.
Just like the sun and the moon moving under the starry sky, perhaps Apollo himself could not travel all over Chaos in one day, but he could easily do it by driving the sun chariot in the starry sky.
Even though the star shuttle is far from being comparable to the sun chariot, the speed it showed at this moment is enough to amaze people.
“Are you sure… this is really the work of mortals?”
“Excuse me, it is more like a sub-artifact blessed by the star of justice Astraea.”
“It is so close to the stars that its mere existence can attract the light of the stars… If it is really the work of humans in Silver Moon City, I am afraid I will change my perception of mortals.”
Praising repeatedly, Dionysus boarded the star shuttle at the invitation of the great hero. At first, he didn’t care about it.
After all, even though he was limited by his own limitations and had never wandered away from the world, just like Hecate, who was born without a divine post, Dionysus was not someone who knew nothing about the world.
He knew what humans were like and what they had done. As a god without a divine post, he actually wanted to leave Olympus and become an outstanding person among humans, rather than a pitiful person among gods.
However, when he actually boarded the shuttle, and they broke free from the shackles of the human world in a very short time and came to the starry sky with weak order, Dionysus suddenly realized its power.
As a human creation, it showed traces of authority in many places… His palm stroked the cold inner wall of the shuttle, and his fingertips ran over the dark red lines.
If he didn’t know it was impossible, Dionysus would even think that this was the painstaking work of some star god.
However, the regional gods are far from such divine power, and the true god-level star gods are unlikely to make such things.
Could it be that today’s human beings are so powerful that they have cracked the innate greatness of the gods…
“There’s nothing strange about this.”
“According to ancient records, the ancient gods worshipped by Silver Moon City also set foot in the field of the starry sky.”
Hercules explained that this was a secret history he saw in the book given to him by Prometheus, but after asking the foresight himself, he also got confirmation.
The star gods of the twelve zodiac star fields are the subordinates of the ancient gods, so there is nothing wrong with them doing some research on this.
“Is that so? That makes a lot more sense.”
“But as far as I know, the zodiac star field has long become a forbidden zone for living beings in the past thousand years.”
Nodding slightly, Dionysus affirmed this, but then he talked about another thing.
“It is said that all this started from the War of Typhon, because the King of All Monsters swept the world and even sinned against the sun, causing the starry sky to be turbulent from then on.”
“It is precisely because of this that the kingdom of the goddess of wisdom was not established in the world opened up by the king of gods like the gods of Olympus, but existed alone in the boundless starry sky with the help of a divine artifact called [Hall of Valor] given by the king of gods.”
“The goddess is the god of wisdom and the undefeated king of victory, so her believers used their power to stop the war on the battlefield of the human world during their lifetime, and fought for the goddess in the starry sky after their death.”
“In addition, those who left a great legacy in the human world The heroes of the great names did not die easily. They were granted eternal life by the gods, and then came to the astral world to continue fighting, using endless years to maintain the peace of the earth. “
“Perseus, the most famous hero in the world, is like this. He not only achieved success in the world, but also created the name of ‘Perseus’ in the starry sky.”
“The endless admiration and faith of the world for him turned into his strength under the influence of [Hall of Valor], allowing him to defeat one opponent after another in the starry sky. In turn, his deeds were passed back to the world, which further contributed to his reputation.”
Listing them one by one, Dionysus knew them all.

He did not deliberately conceal his knowledge. After all, as a person brought by the god of the west wind himself, he could not be really ordinary.
And Hercules really just glanced at him and did not raise any questions.
It is not uncommon for humans to have close relationships with the gods. The once famous blasphemer Tantalus once feasted with the gods.
Just listening to Dionysus’s story, the great hero keenly noticed a name.
Remembering what he had promised, Hercules couldn’t help but ask.
“Perseus, the constellation, is he also in the starry sky?”
“Yes.”
Nodding, although he didn’t know why the great hero paid attention to this half-brother, Dionysus still told the truth.
“Not only him, but also his wife, his wife’s parents, even his horse and the sea beasts that were once his enemies.”
“As the most well-known mortal son of the God King, Perseus also received the most favor from him.”
“He has used the artifacts of the gods more than once, and because of his request, his family was able to ascend to heaven and live forever.”
“Among the many heroes in the Zodiac Star Domain, the most powerful and extraordinary ones can often command many other heroes to fight.”
“They deploy troops in the star space, and the power that occasionally bursts out shines on the world, just like the stars in the sky. Flashing. “
“So in order to praise their achievements, people use constellations as titles to praise them. “
“Perseus is ‘Perseus’, his wife Andromeda is ‘Andromeda’, and there are ‘Cepheus’, ‘Cassiopeia’ and ‘Waitress’. “
“Of course, except for him, these ‘constellations’ are just stained with his favor, not really having any outstanding abilities. “
“You know, even the Pegasus that jumped out of the blood left by him after killing the sea monster Medusa also got the name of ‘Pegasus’ because of him. “
At the end, Dionysus couldn’t help but shake his head slightly.
He didn’t object to favoring his own people, but Perseus did a little too much.
To put it nicely, this is called ‘one person’s success, and the whole family will rise to heaven’.
To put it bluntly, this is nepotism and weaving cliques.
However, the former’s ‘success’ depends more or less on his own efforts, but Perseus’ life is the life of the God King.
He just happened to be born at a time when the God King needed to spread his blood throughout the world and let the kingship penetrate the human race, and then he was chosen by his father.
So under the choice of the times, his reputation has been immortal in the world for thousands of years.
Dionysus admitted that this half-brother had some abilities, but his abilities were by no means great enough to match his fame.
If possible, he would rather hope that the other party would restrain themselves… but Dionysus knew that this was probably impossible.
After all, the God King was still standing behind him, even though he had ascended to heaven.
You know, the conflict between Zeus and Athena was not a matter of one day or one night. As early as thousands of years ago, there were different contradictions between the two sides in various places.
Just like the endless starry sky, as the power of the God King increased, Zeus once hinted to Athena that since she and the angels of the spirit world sealed the [Fallen Corona] with the zodiac star field, why not try to go further.
Occasionally release some evil spirits to other star fields, and then take this opportunity to expand the scope of their “defense”; or try to take the lead in the zodiac star field, instead of letting the spirit world control the power here.
The starry world is vast, and it has become more and more vast in recent years.
If it succeeds, the God King even implicitly promised that he could make Athena the monarch who dominates the starry sky and the sub-king of the Olympus God Court, just like he canonized Pluto and Poseidon.
There is no doubt that such conditions are enough to make any god excited. Even if they know that Zeus may regret it, they will not give up.
After all, as the agent of order and the guardian of the oath, the king of gods must pay the corresponding price for his promise.
As long as there is a possibility of success, the benefits and risks are completely worth a try. But the final result of this matter is that Athena refused without hesitation.
Dionysus didn’t know how his sister, whom he had never met, made such a decision to give up the possibility of ruling the stars.
But accumulated sand makes a tower, and accumulated water makes an abyss.
The contradiction between the king of gods and the goddess of wisdom accumulated little by little, and the matter of Metis was just the initial inducement of all this.
As the most powerful god among the Olympian gods besides Zeus, Athena was unwilling to obey her father’s orders, which was her biggest mistake.
So under the will of the king of gods, Perseus was chosen by the times again.
As the first recipient of [Hall of Valor], even if Zeus gave it away to deal with [Corona of the Fallen], he still had considerable influence.
Ability or not is not important, what is important is the stance.
So in addition to Perseus’ family, the descendants of the ‘Ursa Major’, ‘Ursa Minor’, and various gods ascended to heaven one after another.
They gathered at the side of ‘Perseus’ at this moment, fighting for their father, the god king, all their lives.
