Shinji said that he couldn't follow Atalanta's train of thought at all. "Well, I just praised the beautiful moonlight. How could it be considered disrespectful to the moon goddess?"
"Artemis is great, noble, and holy. How dare you speak of her in such a tone?"
When Atalanta was abandoned, Artemis was the first to lend a helping hand. From then on, the moon became her only belief. In her heart, the moon was the supreme existence, and she would never allow anyone to blaspheme in any form.
"Um, I meant the moonlight, not the Moon Goddess—Ah, sorry, sorry. I forgot that you are a devout believer in the Moon Goddess."
Halfway through his speech, Shinji finally remembered the legend of Atalanta and hurried to make amends.
Although Atalanta's attitude is a bit exaggerated, it is not surprising. In many myths, celestial bodies are equivalent to gods themselves, and Greek mythology is no exception.
For example, Apollo, the sun god, opposed his sister Artemis' union with Orion, and tricked Artemis into killing Orion by mistake. After Artemis knew the truth, she hated her brother and refused to see him again, so the sun rose during the day and the moon rose at night, alternating.
Shinji's disrespect for the moon was considered disrespectful to the moon goddess by Artemis.
So, these natural god believers are troublesome. Shinji complained silently in his heart, hesitated for a while, and said something else.
"You... probably haven't seen the Moon God in person, and you may not even have had direct communication with her."
"So what?" Atalanta said unhappily. This did not affect her beliefs.
Shinji laughed: "If you had seen it, you wouldn't say that."
"You sound like you've seen it before. So, can you tell me what the real Artemis is like?"
"This, do you really want to know? I think it's better for you not to know, lest your faith be shattered."
"Nothing can shake my faith in Lady Artemis."
"What if I told you that the Moon God you believe in is a love-brained person who is hopelessly in love with the playboy Orion and is a jealous person? What would you do?"
"I..." Atalanta's eyes were bloodshot, and her chest was heaving violently. "No—"
Looking at Atalanta like this, Shinji shrugged helplessly. I have advised you, and you still want me to say it again. You are asking for trouble. Don't blame me if your faith is shattered.
"—unforgivable!"
Shinji quickly explained: "Well... don't be too surprised. Gods are just like humans, they also have seven emotions and six desires. It's normal to fall in love. You should understand—"
"—Unforgivable!" Atalanta's expression became ferocious. If the anger in her eyes could be transformed into substance, it would be enough to turn the entire battlefield into ashes. "You are a sinner who blasphemed Lady Artemis."
"What? Blasphemy against the Moon Goddess?"
Shinji was stunned at the time. This reaction was wrong—where was the promised collapse of faith
"Wait, wait, that's not what I meant. What I said is true."
"Great Moon Goddess Artemis, please forgive me, this is also to punish the sinners who disrespect you."
At this time, Atalanta no longer said a word to Shinji. She had already identified Shinji as a target who must be conquered, no matter what means.
How dare you use such vulgar words to describe Lady Artemis.
Unforgivable!
Unforgivable!
Unforgivable!
The female hunter, dominated by anger, put away the "Sky Bow" and took out a piece of black cloth.
No, that's not a piece of cloth! If you look closely, you can see that the hair on its surface is standing up and presents a twisted shape.
Seeing this ominous fur, Shinji felt terrible and started swearing:
"I! @##￥, wild boar skin, Ta-meow you are crazy!"
This piece of fur is Atalanta's second treasure.
Calydonian boar. Oeneus, the king of Calydon, did not offer a sacrifice to Artemis, the goddess of hunting, when offering sacrifices to the twelve gods of Olympus. There is also a theory that he did not offer a sacrifice because he was chosen as the sacrifice. In short, Artemis was angry that he did not offer a sacrifice, so she released a huge monster on him as a punishment.
It was too big to be called a wild boar. It gave off a strong odor, polluting large tracts of land. Crops would rot if it came close to them. It was a life form that would bring disaster if it stayed there.
People immediately organized a punitive team.
When the Greek heroes came forward one after another, it was Atalanta who participated in the expedition as the only woman. And when many men were eaten by the monster without even shooting an arrow, it was also she who first pierced the monster with an arrow.
After that, the survivors fought bloody battles and finally annihilated the monster. It was Meleager, the son of Oeneus, who dealt the final blow with his javelin and cut off its head.
However, he gave the skin and head to Atalanta.
"You are the first person to make the monster bleed. In this case, this fur should belong to you."
Was this out of pure love, or was it just a move to seek fairness? In short, the survivors all protested fiercely.
Some said that if Meliago, who defeated the monster, didn't need the fur, then he should give it to us; some said that Atalanta's arrows didn't cause any harm to the monster at all, and the person who actually caused the harm to the monster should get the fur.
For Atalanta, who lived in the forest, neither status nor reputation meant anything.
However, it would be an exaggeration to say that his arrows did not hurt the monster.
Thus, a meaningless fight began. Those who loved Atalanta, those who hated her, or those who plotted against her all died miserably.
Then, Atalanta took this piece of fur dotted with countless hatred and delusion as her own, because she also felt that this was a revelation from Artemis - never fall in love, never fall in love. It is just an existence that will produce hatred.
It never occurred to her to use it.
However, the fur of the monster is indeed here, and it exists in the form of a treasure.
This is a meaningless treasure that he brought into the human world, but whose use was unknown until recently.
But now she knows.
This Noble Phantasm can only be used when one is filled with hatred.
This was a blessing that fell upon me during the day when I was holding on to the wish of "It doesn't matter what I become, I just want to cut my opponent into pieces."
Ah, maybe I'm crazy. I don't mind death or madness.
I just can't forgive this bastard, the sinner who insulted the sacred hunt and blasphemed the great Moon God, and I am willing to pay any price for this!
Lord Artemis, please lend me your strength.
The messenger of the Calydonian moon goddess Artemis, a symbol of divine punishment, but also a collection of hatred and desire.
If it is wrapped around a wild boar, it will turn into a giant demon beast that disturbs the country. If it is wrapped around a human, it will turn into a monster beyond human. If it is wrapped around a hero, his body will turn into a demon.
After praying to the moon goddess for the last time, Atalanta picked up the wild boar skin in both hands and was about to put it on her body.
PS: Never damage the great and glorious image of God in front of believers, you idiot without faith!
PS2: Close combat is the tradition of archers, and Ta-Meow is no exception. So, archers who can't close combat, please leave the group. Great Hero, Second Sister, Moon Goddess, David (this is questionable, according to the myth, King David was also very fierce), I say you, leave the group!
PS3: To subvert the image of the Moon Goddess, the only way is to let the Moon Goddess commit suicide, such as in the third chapter of FGO, when Tamiu's faith collapsed, it was really exciting. Next is the spoiler - the final chapter, when all the servants rescued Gudako and fought to the death with the Demon Pillar, the Moon Goddess was still playing tricks with Orion. Seeing this, Tamiu gave up on herself and yelled that even without the goddess's blessing, I can shoot through the Calydonian Boar. In the end, he also said, "Didn't that stupid Sprinter come here in the end?"
PS4: Very good, the Japanese industry is really doomed. Yesterday, Shining 3 gave the traitor a bomb, and today, Digimon tri comes again, and the fucking routine is not changed. The key is that you come if you want to, and you make the childhood goddess of so many people so ugly. If you want to blacken and merge, don’t you refer to Lilithmon or Mostemon? Black people are not so black? Pushing your own daughter is not so push, and pitting Taichi is not so pit - I won’t say anything else, Mochizuki Meixin, right? The own daughter, right? I hope you will be like Li Ye in Shining 3, I am optimistic about you.
