Chapter 255

According to the official records of Chaldea, the most famous Venus goddess among ordinary people is not the Mistress of the Sky who relies on Tosaka Rin for activities, nor is it another big sister who loves wrestling and may have a male or animal image that is more popular - but the goddess of love and beauty from the Olympian pantheon, Aphrodite.

Although Aphrodite is not present in the exploration records of the Atlantic Novel Belt from both the perspectives of Neo Chaldea and Phoenix Chaldea, Kirshtalia, who is in the Grand Temple at the beginning, is responsible for updating the Chaldean database with information related to Aphrodite.

Lancer Mello was not worried at all about teaching this young child badly, and directly brought the concept of the rumor belt mecha goddess Aphrodite into the classroom - in the world of the Grand Magician, she is the only one who oppresses others, and there is no development in which she is oppressed by others; unless Lancer Mello does not want to cause extra trouble, she will actively choose to cooperate.

And now, it was obvious that the Grand Master was unilaterally brainwashing these two children who had not even touched the threshold of becoming a magician.

"Beauty is domination, love is domination - this is how Aphrodite explains the power she holds." Lansemero imitated the fairy queen's demeanor in his memory and looked down at Aphrodite, who was still a little kid. "In the future, can you live up to your name and represent this sentence?"

"If beauty is domination, love is domination - this is the goddess's own explanation, then why is her image in mythology like that?" Although most of the time was spent in the Pope's lecture, Aphrodite still had a basic understanding of some Greek mythology. "Did she really dominate?"

"The legend of Aphrodite... is indeed a bit troublesome if we start from this aspect." Asclepius calmly commented on Aphrodite who took the initiative to ask Lansemello, "After all, she is the one who is most famous for her chaotic private life in the legend records besides Zeus... and there are really no records of her fighting."

"It's okay. I have a way." Lanthemero replied to Asclepius calmly, thinking of the young man from Greece in the Chaldean database, and reminded Aphrodite, "Troy - it was because Paris gave the golden apple to Aphrodite that this war was triggered."

"Or to put it simply - before you came to this manor, the means by which I controlled you were derived from the power of Aphrodite." Lansemero smiled, thinking of the trial of the seven gates in the past. "If you don't believe me, I can arrange for you to challenge the replica of Aphrodite like your predecessors."

"Okay, if you still have questions, let's start with the origins of the two powers of 'love and beauty'."

Just as Fujimaru Ritsuka, who was taught by Lancer Mello, said before the question and answer of Ereshkigal that since Hades was also the god of wealth, Ereshkigal, the oldest origin of all the underworld gods, could also be rounded up to possess such power - Lancer Mello directly skipped to the content of Ishtar, the goddess of Venus and the origin of the goddess of beauty, and continued the course.

In Mesopotamian mythology, the goddess of beauty, harvest, and war is said to be the most favored goddess by all the gods. She is known for her amorous nature and is said to be devoted to anyone she likes, whether they are humans or gods. On the other hand, if the other party does not follow her wishes, she will show devilish cruelty - this is Ishtar, the goddess of Venus.

"In the beginning, many powers were integrated into one god - just like I only talked about beauty, harvest and war, but Ishtar actually also has the power of nature, love and fertility." Lansemero casually drew a wonderful picture in the air to organize and talk about the changes of myths. "In the process of spreading and forming myths, the images of different gods will influence each other."

"Of course, the power concentrated in one deity will also be dispersed in this process."

In the Roman records of Aphrodite, who was called Venus, only the power of love and beauty and the identity of the goddess of Venus remained, and the rest of the power was dispersed in the hands of other gods.

"The legend of Ishtar is much worse than Aphrodite. King Gilgamesh rejected Ishtar's pursuit, so the goddess got the Bull of Heaven given by her father. As revenge on King Gilgamesh, she let the beast wreak havoc on the earth." Lansemero smiled and mentioned the course content that made Aphrodite's brain crash. "Besides, I mentioned that the twelve gods are all mechanical creations, right?"

"Although the gods of Olympus are known as the most human gods, their essence is just machines following the results of calculations. Machines are much more stable than humans, aren't they?"

——That’s why Aphrodite didn’t have the record of taking revenge on others like Ishtar did.

"I understand. I think it is more suitable for me to directly experience the simulated combat situation." Aphrodite thought carefully for a long time and chose to tell Lancermello his thoughts. "To become a Saint, strength is necessary. As long as the strength is strong enough, it is enough to make the rules themselves-"

"Wow, an Order-Devil Attribute has appeared in the Athena camp." Ereshkigal was also piqued, and commented on Aphrodite with great interest, "If he becomes a Servant in the future, he will definitely be a Berserker - not the muscle-headed type of the previous generation at all."

"I understand." William, who was remotely connected to the chat channel, joined the discussion. "The Sanctuary version of Colonel Moran - I'm looking forward to my future contact with Saga... To be honest, I'm curious about the reason why the Order of Rebellion came to power and replaced the Pope."

"...You must remember that Amakusa Tokisada is also Order and Good." Asclepius interrupted their discussion with one sentence and concluded, "Besides, an ordinary human cub - even a Gold Saint Candidate - has no chance of defeating Gaia. Even if she releases all the water on the earth, Aphrodite may not be able to defeat her."

"Even if she's just using a crazy weakened copy of Aphrodite."

"… But it's really troublesome to have a muscle head." Lansemello joined the conversation, "I now feel that Aphrodite gave him this face - at least talk to Athena to add some brains, really. Camus is still young, I can't let him teach others like Dieter. "

"So you're going to start with fighting, right?" Ereshkigal said with a smile, "I heard that Merlin, Gilgamesh, and Solomon didn't just teach you magic."

"So we still have to fight at the beginning of this generation." Lansemello simply and roughly summarized the next arrangements, "Since he believes in strength, we will fight him until he is convinced - I have plenty of time to waste with them in this "court". Asclepius, help me keep an eye on them from now on - if anything happens to the Aphrodite... Shion will explode first."

"Why don't you just stop using the high-speed divine words?" Although Asclepius complained to Lansemello, he still agreed to Lansemello's arrangement, "Don't use those highly dangerous magics - I mean, the kind that are highly dangerous to the opponent... Forget it, let's first see what level Ritsuka is at based on the level he can adapt to now."

"... Lie down. Today's class ends here." Lansemero raised his hand to wave away the notes he had casually written in the air, announcing the end of the class. He watched the two children crawl into the quilt and focused his eyes on Aphrodite. "Keep your spirits up. Tomorrow we will have our first challenge—"

"Since you believe that powerful forces should make the rules, then after you are defeated, you must obey my arrangements."

"And now——"

"Good night, I wish you have a good dream."

Under the power of suggestive magic, Camus and Aphrodite's consciousness quickly became dull and they fell into a quiet dream.

"It's obvious that you're in a bad mood." Ereshkigal said, teasing Lansemello with a smile, "When will you ever hypnotize someone with suggestion magic?"

"I am a fairy, but I am also a witch." Lancer Merlot paused, stood up and left the garden, "I mean, the evil witches in human stories who even raise children to eat - but this is not a development caused by what he said in the course."

"Just because of his muscle head... I don't get along with guys like that."

"Since you've already brought him here, you can only bear with it." Ereshkigal chuckled and quickly changed the topic to tomorrow's battle. "Most of the magic you master is not suitable for showing the characteristics of a witch. Have you thought about what to do next? Moreover, although you said that you wanted to arrange it at Ritsuka's level...but in reality, you only decided to let him be alive at most after the battle."

"The descendants of Yumina use the power of fairy tales such as "Mother Goose's Nursery Rhymes" to create "fairy tale monsters." Lansemello climbed onto the terrace on the top floor of the house and looked at the illusory full moon in the "Garden" magic. "Although I want to separate that part of the experience from myself, based on the existence of that experience..."

"I will imitate Yumina's power in a poor way." Lansermello closed her eyes, and the witch's outfit reappeared on her body. "In the fairy country of Britain, the rain witch Ash is accompanied by another rain witch - Ash's sister, Ash's half, Ash's shadow..."

"The Rain Witch, Rikolis."

"I must defeat him with a miracle that humans cannot achieve - only a power that humans cannot reach can be admired by humans." Lansemello conjured up a picture book and held it in his hand. The vacant area in the "courtyard" was undergoing earth-shaking changes. "Especially this guy obviously has no reverence for the gods."

"I am a fairy, a rain witch - an evil, bad witch." Lansermello recalled the day when Vivian held his hand, and the snow that never stopped falling in Orkney. "If you want to calm my anger, if you want to gain my forgiveness - then you have to pay a price more precious than your life."
