(Fate) Chapter 228: Stay with me
🕑 Added 2024-12-15 16:09:57 +0000 UTC"I brought you here to temporarily avoid the coming chaos."
Clotho's voice was as soft and gentle as ever. "Typhon's arrival, the Titans breaking free from the abyss, it will be the most chaotic time in the world, and this is the safest place."
Under normal circumstances, no one would go looking for trouble with the Fates.
After all, their identities were special, and they didn't actually belong to any side.
"At the same time, when everything is more stable, I will give you the final oracle."
"Oracle?" He looked at Clotho in surprise and blurted out subconsciously, "Are you taking Athena's job?"
Clotho didn't answer, just turned her blank white eyes and expressionless face towards him.
After a while, she said softly,
"She is the main god of Olympus and the most powerful deity besides Zeus, so naturally she needs to be at the forefront to resist the Titans.
But don't worry, when you are ready, she will naturally come to greet you... This time it's not your goddess, but me. I'm so sorry."
"Ahem!"
Promise coughed twice in a hurry, waving his hands in a panic to indicate that he didn't mean it like that!
Clotho didn't respond to this, she walked into the ancient palace, which was empty except for the threads of the world intersecting above, and sat down inside.
She patted the spot next to her and, although her eyes were blank and white, she still cast her 'gaze' at him silently.
Seeing this, he stepped forward and sat down next to Clotho.
As soon as he sat down, Clotho leaned sideways and rested her back against his.
Just as he was extremely surprised by this.
Holding the crystal ball in her arms, the goddess leaned against his back and whispered, "Actually, the reasons above are not the most important."
"I just want you to... stay with me before the end comes."
Stay with me, until... Typhon arrives.
Promise didn't answer, just sat quietly in the ancient palace with his back against Clotho's, enjoying this moment, like the last peace before the storm.
"So, did you really faint just now, or were you faking it?"
In the shadows, the eldest sister, Atropos, glanced at her second sister, Lachesis, who was smiling like a doting aunt, her face expressionless.
"Guess?" Lachesis winked at her elder sister.
Then she gnashed her teeth and glared at him, saying, "And that brat, he really let go when I told him to, without any hesitation... But forget it, considering how much he doted on my little sister, I will forgive him this time."

'Then, go and seize that thunder.
The king of the gods, Zeus has hidden it, he has hidden it in a place where Typhon will never find it, and no one but you can get it.
Take it and go to Mount Olympus.
The gods of Olympus await you there, and at that time, the wise goddess will take your hand and help you paint the picture you have always longed for!'
Three days later,
Clotho, the goddess of fate, gave the oracle to Promise, and the Pegasus, flapping its holy wings, came in front of Promise at this moment.
"Brother Horse, what have you been doing behind my back these days?"
Looking at the Pegasus, who looked very tired in front of him, Promise tilted his head in confusion and said, "Did you go looking for a mare and get drained by her?"
Hearing this, Pegasus was so angry that he neighed and chased after Promise, waving his hooves.
'Who do you think it's because of!'
It wasn't until Clotho's appeasement that he reluctantly stopped.
"All right, stop it."
Clotho said softly, "Go on."
"Well, I'm leaving then, Goddess Clotho."
Promise smiled and sat on the holy Pegasus, as always, under its leadership, to fulfill the oracle of the gods.
"You have to watch me closely, this painting I'm going to paint!"
Before leaving, he shouted to Clotho.
Only this time, he did not wait for Clotho's response.
Clotho held the crystal ball and quietly stared at the back of Promise as he gradually went away, until he completely disappeared.
"Sorry..."
Then, she whispered as she turned sideways and faced her sisters.
"Sisters, I... I'm going to do something bad."
As her two sisters looked at her in some surprise, Clotho said slowly, "Will you... forgive me for being willful?"
Her voice seemed as calm as ever, but if one listened carefully, one could still detect the fear and worry in it, and her body was trembling at this moment.
She had thought that she would be able to treat it with equanimity, after all, she had seen it no less than a thousand times, but at this moment, at the thought that her sisters would be sad, and might even be disappointed in her, Clotho still felt fear and trepidation.
Hearing this, the eldest and second sisters looked at each other.
Then the second sister frowned and said to Clotho, "Sister, are you hiding something from us?"
Clotho lowered her head and did not answer.
The air solidified a little, and the second sister's brow furrowed even deeper.
After a long time,
It was actually the eldest sister, Atropos, who spoke first, replying in that emotionless voice,
"I will, no matter what you choose to do."
Looking at the stunned Clotho, the eldest sister continued flatly, "Because you are my sister."
"Yes." Then, Lachesis, who sighed helplessly, also looked at Clotho with indulgence and said, "Who made you our only sister?"
Almost at the moment Lachesis finished her words.
That terrifying aura descended upon the Temple of Fate.
A scarlet body, carrying the aura of endless destruction, Typhon, the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Demons and the Dragon of Calamity, had arrived, and his mere presence was greeted by a storm that seemed to destroy everything.
And all this, Promise did not know.
Pegasus was carrying Promise as he ran through the darkness-shrouded ancient Greece, and in his heart, he was actually curious as to where Zeus had hidden the thunder and where Pegasus was taking him.
As he was running, Pegasus suddenly lit up with a white light.
A vast magical power swept through his body, and without even saying hello to Promise, he slammed into the ground like a falling comet.
"Brother Horse, are you trying to kill me!"
Promise, who was holding the pure white reins, now looked pale.
"Aren't you being a little stingy? I was just teasing you a little... or are you saying I'm right, that you actually went looking for a mare?"
"Chirp--!"
If you say another word, I, the Heavenly Horse, will fight you today!
Promise pursed his lips,
"Then what are you doing now?"
The Pegasus did not answer, but its body lit up with white light again, and then it ran into the sky, once again slamming heavily towards the ground.
And this time, it smashed open the ground and took Promise to a place he was very familiar with - the Underworld!
"...This Age of Gods' Underworld is really physically beneath our feet."
Realizing where the Pegasus was taking him, Promise sighed, and then couldn't help but complain, "By the way, Brother Horse, if you want to go to the Underworld, why bother?
Just tell me, and I'll ask Hades, the King of the Underworld, for help!"
Pegasus chirped in response.
"You said no, he's badly hurt right now and we shouldn't disturb him?"
Promise frowned, and was just about to ask who could hurt the dignified King of the Underworld, when he suddenly reacted.
Yes, now was the catastrophe of the war between the gods, the Titans escaped from the abyss, and the first to bear the brunt was the Underworld.
"What about Persephone?"
Instantly, Promise became a little nervous and said, "Is she okay?"
Pegasus shook its head, indicating that she was fine.
Hearing this, Promise was relieved as he thought for a moment and said, "Isn't there still Hecate? Although she dislikes me very much, she should at least open the door for me at this time, right?"
Hearing this, Pegasus gave Promise a strange look.
Then he didn't bother to talk to this guy anymore, and ran with him in the underworld, towards the destination.
On the way, Promise also greeted Charon, the ferryman below.
In fact, under normal circumstances, creatures like Pegasus cannot fly in the underworld, and cannot even exist.
However, when Promise brought Persephone to Hades, it had appeared before, so Hades at that time actually gave it a blessing, allowing it to run freely in the sky.
In fact, not only the underworld, but also the Olympus God's Court and even the ocean have given corresponding blessings to the Pegasus.
Therefore, what Promise didn't know was that his Brother Horse, as long as he wanted, could really take him to any corner of the world.
And just after running for a while,
Suddenly the entire underworld shook violently, and then an ancient voice, with an unbelievable tone, resounded throughout the underworld.
"Nyx, Goddess of the Night, are you crazy?!"
Goddess Nyx?
Promise couldn't help but be startled, what happened?
The Pegasus also paused, then stepped forward again.
Soon, he took Promise to his destination.
That is the place of pain in the underworld, the entrance to the abyss of Tartarus.
As soon as he arrived here, Pegasus stopped, and Promise immediately saw an unbelievable person crawling out of the abyss.
Long hair as beautiful as night, beautiful red eyes and delicate features.
She is clearly a powerful goddess with a high status, but she is a well-known otaku in ancient Greece - Hecate!
"Goddess Hecate?"
Promise looked at Hecate, who crawled out of the abyss with her hair scattered and looked a little embarrassed, and said subconsciously, "Why are you here?"
After speaking, Hecate raised her head and saw Promise.
Her eyes turned red, and then she gritted her teeth and stared at him fiercely.
Promise, who had just gotten off the Pegasus, was so frightened that he hurriedly backed away two steps.
Hecate took a deep breath, tried to squeeze a smile at Promise and said, "Yo, who is this, isn't this Promise, come here quickly and let me have a look.
It's too dangerous here, come here, I'll give you a blessing!"
