Chapter 231 The Hair Ring of the Moon Goddess (3k)
The Treasure of Augustus Julius?!
Moen was a little dazed.
And the goddess continued to speak:
"Think carefully, this is very possible, my Lord. He was the great one who cleaned up the mess for the entire world after the end of the Age of Gods."
"And the only one who really came close to ruling the world."
“Although he is neither a god nor a king, the treasure left behind by such a person must be extraordinary.”
The treasure of Augustus is not groundless. Many Shinra elders and Augustus' guards have said in person that the great Augustus left them a treasure.
Even among the senators who participated in the assassination that year, a large number of them did so because they coveted Augustus' treasure.
But unfortunately, the elders who coveted the treasure, like the goddess later, were unable to find where it was.
So much so that many people firmly claimed that Augustus did not leave any treasure, it was just a joke.
Some people also think that Augustus’ treasure has always been in front of the world, and that is the glorious Rome!
As the goddess was speaking, she noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with Moon's expression.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? You look a little strange?"
Moen laughed dryly and said:
"From the Second Era to now, have countless people, or even many gods, looked for this so-called Augustus treasure?"
"Yes, many, your majesty."
"Um, roughly how much?"
The goddess thought seriously and said:
"If you add up all the treasure hunters in history, they might be stronger than the entire world today."
"And the cost they paid for it, well, just from what I've heard, it's probably worth more than the Seven Hills."
Today, Qiqiu is only considered a second-rate or even third-rate force in the entire world, but in terms of wealth, Qiqiu is undoubtedly a first-rate force.
"Ah, haha, that's a bit unexpected."
"Your Majesty, what's so surprising about this? That's Augustus!"
The goddess's repeated emphasis made Moon even more embarrassed.
Moon had heard of people looking for Augustus' treasure, but he hadn't expected so many.
But, that thing doesn't exist at all!
And when did I ever say that?!
Ah, I did mention that when I was bragging to the guards, but I only said it once!
How did it spread?
It couldn't be that when I was chatting with the guards in the restaurant, there were a bunch of elders lying outside the restaurant eavesdropping on me, right? ? ?
Moon couldn't help but think about that scene.
The Shinra elders were full of contempt for the soldiers' mess, but just because Augustus was also there, they would lie at the window door on time to eavesdrop on everything inside.
Isn’t this too ridiculous?
No, no, no, that is definitely not the case. The fact must be that the guards accidentally told this matter to others, and then the elders heard it, and then it spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred.
In short, there would definitely not be a large group of elders hiding outside the restaurant and eavesdropping on time every day.
Those guys aren't that outrageous.
But, if there is no so-called treasure of Augustus, then why is the ring attracted there?
Moon thought seriously about what else in the Old World could have this possibility.
But after thinking about it, Moon was also confused.
The Old World is a poor place and the only continent without a true god.
Because there's really nothing interesting there.
The only ones that can be mentioned are the Holy Rome of the Second Age and the memorial temple built in the Age of Gods to preserve the holy sword.
However, Shinra had already fallen apart when he was assassinated, and the memorial temple where the holy sword was stored had long since become an empty shell. He didn't know where the holy sword or even the three sisters who guarded it were now.
So why are my rings concentrated in the Old World?
Morn didn't quite understand why, but after thinking about it carefully, Morn decided to put it aside for the time being.
He has now protected the Seven Hills, properly handled the Blood Moon Seal, and recovered the Dark Moon.
So, the next major target is Denise!
What Moen saw and heard at the ferry still haunts him.
As for the Old World, it was not too important. In Augustus's files, Moon did not leave any ties that he could not give up.
The nineteen rings were also not something that needed to be recycled in a hurry.
At most, I would take a look at the Old World when I went to the Church of Storms.
After all, if you want to go to the Storm Church, you have to pass through the Old Continent, unless Moon plans to take a detour.
After a brief thought, Moon had already planned his next itinerary.
The goddess who had always been in front of Moon had no idea that her king was about to leave her again.
She was just thinking about what to cook for her king tomorrow.
But as she was thinking, the goddess' pupils suddenly shrank and she exclaimed:
"My soup!"
After saying that, the goddess hurriedly ran towards the kitchen.
Because of the beating of the nameless heart, the goddess immediately abandoned the red heart borscht she was cooking and rushed over.
After a long delay, she finally remembered this matter.
Moon could only watch with some confusion as the goddess came and went in a hurry.
Honestly, this is something that is very unreal for a god.
But because the king was there, the high and mighty goddess seemed as ordinary as an ordinary newlywed wife.
-
At the subsequent table.
In front of Moon was a table filled with food prepared by the goddess herself.
They are all very common home-cooked dishes, and they all have one thing in common, which is that they are simple and easy to make.
If the Moon Goddess, who has been lonely and isolated until now, wants to cook for her lover who has finally returned home, she can only choose these simple dishes.
Because the dishes I learned for my husband have long been forgotten.
This is love, but it also makes the goddess hide on the other side of the dining table a little ashamed. Especially in front of her there is a slightly burnt pot.
Outside the restaurant, Archbishop Barbatos was waiting in cold sweat.
She also had a husband, but she was the Grand Duchess, so she had never cooked for herself. It was always her husband who cooked at home.
As a result, because she was the only female grand duke and had a partner, she was taken away by the goddess to help.
That's why she didn't understand why the most important red borscht was being cooked.
Grand Duke Barbatos, who once had ease in dealing with many churches, forces, and even gods, never expected that one day he would be suspected of blasphemy and blasphemy against the king because of such a stupid thing.
Looking at the sumptuous dining table in front of me and the goddess opposite me who was lowering her head uneasily.
After Moon smiled, he responded with action - enjoy the food!
The goddess, who had been waiting for a long time without hearing a response, finally raised her head carefully.
What I saw was my husband enjoying his meal.
For a wife who prepares meals with care, this should be the greatest enjoyment and the best response.
So the goddess put her mind at ease.
She just leaned there quietly, her hands supporting her face, like an elf immersed in a beautiful dream. Her eyes were full of love, and every frown and smile was filled with endless tenderness. She looked at her lover as if she was appreciating the most precious treasure in the world.
In fact, this is true. For the gods, what treasure could be more precious than the king?
Compared with this, the original position of honor seems insignificant.
The reason why the War of Apocalypse began is that the eldest sons wanted to become the originals, and the reason why the War of Apocalypse continues is that the eldest sons must become the originals!
After a long time, Moon finished his meal. He put down his knife and fork, pointed at the stew pot in front of the goddess and said:
"So, can I have a bowl of soup?"
For the first time, the goddess showed resistance.
She hid her stew pot behind her almost instinctively.
And shook his head repeatedly:
"This won't work. This really won't work."
"Selene, am I your husband?"
Selene immediately and firmly admitted this, also as an instinctive reaction.
"Of course, you are my husband and I am your wife! Our union is witnessed by the Original!"
Moen smiled and said:
"So, give me a bowl of soup. As a husband, there is no reason for me to waste the food my wife has carefully prepared."
If you really didn't want to drink it, why would you bring it?
Selene was indeed defeated.
She silently walked to Moon holding the burnt iron pot in her hand.
She took great pains to pick out the parts that looked drinkable and scoop them out for her king.
After finally filling the bowl, Moon drank it all in one gulp.
The taste is bad, the flavor is good.
Amid Selene's nervousness, anxiety, and slight anticipation, Morn held her hand and said:
"Thank you, Selene. This is the first time I've eaten food prepared by my love since I came back!"
At this moment, the Moon Goddess couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, like a proud kitten.
At the same time, the three high and mighty goddesses, the Shadow Sun Roselórien, the Ruling Light Ansha Baratheon, and the Golden Sacred Tree Yggdrasil, all felt for no reason that they had lost out of nowhere.
They looked around in confusion.
Nothing happened, why do I feel like I lost miserably somewhere?!
The restaurant was filled with silence afterwards, the only sound being the sound of Moon helping Selene clear the table.
Just like an ordinary couple.
Wait until everything is cleaned up.
Moon was surprised to find that Selene suddenly hugged him.
After hugging himself and taking a deep breath, he asked a question that caught Moon off guard:
"Are you leaving?"
How do you know?
After a brief moment of surprise, Moon suddenly realized.
This is his wife, the wife who has accompanied him for two eras.
So how could you not know?
Moon held Selene's hand and said:
"Yes, in order for us to be together forever, I have to leave."
The goddess did not ask why, but continued to ask:
"Can I go with you?"
After a brief silence, Morn said what he had said to Ansha:
"No, Selene. Going alone is necessary for me to practice the path of God."
The goddess responded by simply burying her head behind Morn's back.
After feeling the warmth that I hadn't felt for a long time.
The goddess let go of her king.
And as Moon turned around, he pulled Moon's hand.
Like Ansha, Selene cut off a lock of her hair.
The soft, moon-white long hair turned into a snow-white ring in the goddess' love and longing.
"Just like the great Lionheart King and the Storm Goddess, I hope that my love, my thoughts, and my protection can be with you, my majesty!"
Without any attempts to retain or be reluctant, Goddess Selene decisively chose to let go.
That was why Moon accepted the second hair ring from the goddess, which made him sweat profusely.
