[After so effort, you caught up with Atalanta.]
[Though it was a bit complicated, she eventually cald down.]
[She realized that sothing was off about herself.]
[But she wasn't ready to face it yet.]
[The two of you returned to the Argo as usual. You were all gathered here as heroes—the first priority was figuring out how to overco Aeëtes' trial.]
[You were initially worried about Atalanta and dea's relationship.]
[However, to your surprise, the two of them got along like old friends.]
[Atalanta didn't seem hostile toward dea, and dea was eager to befriend her. You were relieved that another emotional battlefield hadn't erupted on the Argo.]
It wasn't hard to understand why.
Atalanta had been complaining about Moran's flirtatious nature from the start.
After talking to dea, she realized that the princess was nothing more than a naive young girl.
dea was still incredibly innocent.
She was only about fourteen years old.
Atalanta had been abandoned by her parents at birth and had only survived thanks to the moon god's rcy.
Perhaps due to her childhood experiences—
Her tolerance for children was nearly infinite.
Since she couldn't bring herself to resent dea,
She could only continue to complain about Moran.
"Man, those two are getting along even better than I expected. I don't even have a chance to step in."
Moran sighed helplessly.
Still, overall, things were going well.
[The heroes decided to depart the next day to face Aeëtes' trial, but you had a different idea.]
[In mythology, even after the heroes passed Aeëtes' difficult trial, he still refused to hand over the Golden Fleece. Knowing this, you considered an alternative approach.]
"Huh? Moran, you're not coming?"
"Can't let you steal all the glory, can I? As the captain of the Argo, you're supposed to be the most dazzling one."
"Hah, that's true.
I, Jason the Great, must let the world witness my unparalleled wisdom and strength! I'll handle this trial!"
Moran smirked slyly, flattering Jason like a seasoned trickster.
And Jason, predictably, was completely swept up in the praise.
However, he still had so concerns.
"It's just... this trial does seem a bit difficult. If sothing were to happen to ... No, no! It's not that I'm afraid! Absolutely not! It's just that, as your leader, I have a responsibility to ensure everyone's safety..."
Jason was putting on a brave face as usual.
Everyone knew his combat ability was the worst on the Argo.
Throughout the journey, the heroes were basically escorting him, while he was the one standing at the bow of the ship, hands on his hips, trying to look cool.
In other words, he was the "hype man."
His only rits were his leadership and strategic skills as captain. The crew of the Argo knew he often made mistakes, but they also knew in their hearts that he was indispensable.
"Mr. Jason, I have a magical ointnt here. It should at least ensure your survival during the trials..."
"Oh, oh, oh! You have such a great thing! You should have told sooner! That way, I wouldn't be so afraid... Pui, not afraid, I was worried about your safety, yes, that way no one will hold back!"
"Hold you back? But from my point of view, Mr. Jason, you seem to be the one who needs the most protection..."
dea said very innocently.
She was still completely without malice.
She just said what she saw.
Jason's face turned as bitter as a gourd after hearing this.
The surrounding heroes couldn't help but stifle their laughter, finally soone had spoken the truth to his face.
Before, everyone was like brothers with Jason.
So, they didn't nitpick.
"Eh... D-Did I say sothing wrong?"
dea didn't realize the atmosphere.
There's a saying that those who are naturally innocent are actually dark inside.
She fits that description perfectly.
[The next day, the heroes went to challenge the trials]
[You left the heroes' group with dea]
[While the heroes planned to subdue the fire-breathing bulls first, you went to the Colchis palace again]
[dea was a little puzzled]
"Moran, why are you going to the palace? Aren't we going to help Atalanta and the others?"
"dea, assuming Jason and the others complete the trials, do you think your father will really hand over the Golden Fleece?"
"Father probably won't... Oh! I understand! Moran, you want to steal the Golden Fleece while everyone's attention is drawn to the heroes, taking advantage of this weakest mont, right?"
"Smart."
Moran gave dea a thumbs up.
dea's face turned slightly red.
She didn't expect to be praised by Moran like this.
Her heart was filled with sweet joy.
"Don't you mind stealing your national treasure?"
"I don't mind at all. Anyway, Father just treats it like an antique. If it can be used by Lord Moran, I think it's much better than gathering dust in the treasure vault!"
dea said very naively and romantically.
Not thinking there was anything wrong with it.
At this mont, the person she loved most in her heart was Moran, so she naturally felt that Moran was the most valiant hero in the world.
The treasure should naturally belong to him.
dea would naturally do this kind of unhesitatingly betraying her father for Moran.
This love was undoubtedly heavy.
Because she was willing to dedicate everything for this love.
"dea, I hope you can promise one thing."
"Umm, Lord Moran is actually asking ... I... As long as it's sothing I can do... I will promise you!"
dea looked flattered.
She was very happy to be able to help Moran.
"I'm very happy that you're thinking of so much, but... I hope you can love yourself more."
Moran's words revealed concern.
This made dea show a puzzled expression.
"I don't want you to get hurt, and I don't want you to do things I don't want you to do because of this excessive emotion. Because in the end, you won't be happy."
Moran said earnestly.
As the object of dea's love.
He wanted to correct dea's problem of not loving herself. If it wasn't dealt with, it would eventually lead to hidden dangers.
Not to ntion, in the process of getting along with dea.
He did develop a good impression of this lovely girl.
"I want you to be happy, so I don't want you to do things that you will regret.
Rember, nothing can be obtained by abandoning sothing else as a prerequisite. I hope you can understand this."
