Fate: I Heard After Death, You Can Ascend to the Throne of Heroes?

Chapter 71: I will become that kind of hero



Promise now understood why Lachesis came to him and said those words.

The choice of fate did come to him once again.

He thought for a moment and asked,

"Where is the goddess Clotho?"

"Child, let me teach you something. It is very rude to mention another goddess in front of a goddess."

Because of the curse of fate, Lachesis, who was responsible for deciding the length of the lifeline, was not like a goddess.

She was so weak that she would faint on the spot if she said a few more words.

But she couldn't help but tease thd boy for a bit before she weakly replied, "But because the other person is my cutest sister, I forgive you.

Clotho is in the Temple of Destiny, trying to find a different future for you."

"What kind of future is that?" The boy asked curiously.

Lachesis tilted her head and said,

"I don't know. Clotho didn't let us see it. But... isn't this the best proof?"

Promise nodded when he heard this, and then said, "Then, can I go see her?"

"Now?" This time it was Lachesis' turn to be stunned

She looked at the boy with a slightly surprised look and said, "Have you made a decision?"

"Yeah." The latter nodded again.

"...Are you really not going to reconsider it?" Lachesis was silent for a while, then asked, "After all, giving up is much easier.

You only need to say one word, and you don't have to bear the fate of hundreds of thousands of people. This is much more cost-effective."

"And most importantly, even if you don't give up, what can you do?"

This was the business of the goddess Persephone, who became the Queen of the Underworld, a fate no mortal should every get involved in.

However, not only did Promise wanted to get involved, he also wanted to take away the most beloved daughter from the hands of the main god, who could make the earth desolate and abduct her to be someone else's wife.

Being his wife would be fine, but the place she would be abducted to was dark and gloomy, like a cage.

It was the underworld that most gods despised, and it was a place where she would undoubtedly suffer.

Not to mention a goddess, even if it were just an ordinary mother, facing such a thing, she would probably want to fight to the death.

Therefore, even if she didn't see it, Lachesis could roughly guess that the future that her sister Clotho peeked into should be called Promise' Thousand Ways to Die.

Perhaps because of the surprise, Lachesis spoke so many words but her breathing was still even and she didn't faint on the spot.

"You are right." Promise nodded and did not refute her.

After all, it was the fact.

"When I think about the fact that my choice now will determine the future fate of hundreds of thousands of people, and even the direction of the world, it's impossible to say that I don't care at all."

"And I only need to take a step back to let all of this go, but... in that case, I won't be able to fulfill my promise to your sister, right?"

'If he give up his promise, can Athena and Hera avoid the future where Demeter, the goddess of agriculture, makes the earth barren? ... Actually, it was hard to say.'

Because they couldn't force her to do so, not even the king of gods Zeus could do so, not only because Demeter was a main god, but also because she was the sister of Hera and Zeus.

It is Demeter's power to give life to the earth or to leave it barren.

If the anger in her heart cannot be quelled, all of this is very likely to happen, not to mention that this is the future that was originally destined in ancient Greek mythology.

"I promised her." He smiled and said to Lachesis, "I want her to see a better future.

What's more... this is the path I chose."

.....

So soon,

Promise came to the ancient temple of destiny, again.

When he opened his eyes, as usual, he found himself lying on the floor of the temple, with the thread of fate of all things hanging over his head.

Beside him, Clotho, the goddess of fate, who was wearing a white robe with some white hair sticking out from her hood, was kneeling quietly beside him, holding a crystal ball.

When Promise sat up, he looked at the petite goddess of fate in front of him carefully.

Even though Clotho forced himself to cheer up, there was still visible fatigue on her face.

Facing his arrival there was no surprise on Clotho's delicate face.

She must have been waiting for him for a long time since she could not see the present but could see the future.

The two of them didn't speak for a while.

Until the boy laughed and spoke first, "Goddess Clotho, I... am here to embarrass you again!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Promise was skillfully hit on the head by Clotho with the crystal ball... After hitting so many times, the goddess found that she could control her strength better and better.

"You annoying guy." Clotho said in a childish voice, "My sister should have told you everything. Even so, are you sure you want to change the fate I see and bring shame to me?"

"Of course." Promise answered without hesitation.

If he had hesitated, he would not have come here.

He smiled and said, "After all, I promised you that I would let you see a more beautiful future. How can I go back on my word?"

Hearing this, Clotho was quiet for a while.

"If you only made a vow with me, without Athena and Themis, would you still make such a choice?" Clotho said this softly, and her voice only became softer and softer, so soft it became

inaudible.

"Huh?" Promise blinked and looked at the petite goddess who was sitting in front of him, speaking in surprise, "Goddess Clotho, what did you just say?"

Clotho did not answer.

She was thinking whether she should hit the liar in front of her again.

Promise probably noticed it, so in order to avoid being hit on the head again, he smiled and then suddenly said to Clotho seriously: "Goddess Clotho, thank you.

There is no need to continue, you just need to wait, just as we promised, you just need to wait, wait for me to present the future to you."

"What you mean is that no matter what I do, there will be no results. Unlike the goddesses Athena and Themis, I will be humiliated by you anyway, so I should just give up, right?"

Clotho replied calmly.

Although she tried hard to stay calm and appear to have the dignity of a goddess, she still

pouted and looked unhappy, which made him laugh.

Athena gave Promise the oracle and prepared trials for him, allowing him to become the

shining star of the world step by step.

Themis, the goddess of justice, gave him the sword to protect him on this journey.

Although Clotho also gave a prophecy, the prophecy she gave had only one result, which was

to be broken by the boy in various ways...

No wonder she was unwilling to accept this.

Moreover, there was that competitive spirit within Clotho herself towards Athena and Themis over Promise that she herself didn't realise.

"Of course not."

As he spoke, Promise subconsciously reached out to pat Clotho's head, but gave up halfway.

After all, no matter how delicate she looked, the one in front of him was still a goddess.

"Just as I am grateful to Goddess Athena and Themis, I am also grateful to you." Lachesis said that Clotho had been trying to find a different future for him, and Promiae, who came here, saw with his own eyes how tired Clotho was now.

After all, if it were a normal day, she would definitely try hard to keep a straight face and make

herself look "dignified".

Hearing Promise's sincere words, Clotho looked down slightly, playing with the crystal ball in her hand for a moment before speaking, "Though I believe it's impossible, I still want to ask you: are you really not going to give up?"

"This time you are intervening in a matter between gods. Lady Demeter loves her daughter more than anyone else and cherishes the goddess Persephone.

Anyone who wants to take her daughter away from her will surely pay a heavy price."

"Moreover, fate cannot be changed. Even if you really take Persephone away, the enraged Demeter will use her power to vent her anger on the entire world..."

By that time, Promise, who was supposed to be a bystander would become the one who indirectly promoted all this and killed tens or even hundreds of thousands of lives.

After all, the decision was in his hands now.

Hades even gave him the invisibility helmet.

"And most importantly, because of the oath you made with the goddesses Athena and Themis, no one will come out to help you this time. They will even prevent other gods from

getting involved, because... this is the path you chose."

Clotho said a lot.

This scene was actually just like what happened between the moon goddess Artemis and the

Pegasus.

What she really wanted to hear was not his words "I will let you see better future", but toNôv(el)B\\jnn

hear the boy give up.

But even so, Promise still smiled and answered without even hesitation: "Yes, this is exactly

the path I have chosen, and I will become that kind of hero."
