As for the Calydonian wild boar itself being Lancer's property, no one would have any objection to this matter, and Lancer simply 'sacrificed' the wild boar in order to keep the king from breaking his promise to get fat.

The old king, who had already learned about the miraculous effects of wild boar meat from his son, was naturally very happy, but Lancer didn't care at all.

Because the effect of wild pork lies in the blessing of the moon god. For those who have not participated in the hunting, the pork is just a bit more delicious. Anyway, the pork is freshly cut, so even if it has no effect, it has nothing to do with him.

------

The hunting of the Calydon wild boar not only had a far-reaching impact in the country, but also spread abroad, and Arcadia, which is not far from Calydon, naturally sent an envoy to congratulate, but this envoy was completing A strange rumor was heard after the mission.

The heroes who hunted the wild boar made a strange request to the king. They asked the king to give a piece of land to a group of outsiders (because of the wild boar, the king simply gave a small piece of land to Lancer, of course the limit There are also many), and according to some folk rumors, the outsiders used the coins of Arcadia.

This couldn't help but make the messenger wonder whether those outsiders were the original Acadians?

So he simply turned directly to that village to try to visit the hero who hunted the Calydonian wild boar.

But when he came to this small town, he was completely stunned at the scene, because he found that a woman who was teaching many children to practice archery seemed very familiar?

After lowering his head and thinking for a while, his face suddenly changed drastically, because he finally realized why he looked familiar, the other party looked very similar to the queen!

Could it be that the queen...

Feeling extremely absurd, he forcibly restrained his cranky head and walked into the village with the team.

Just in case he didn't forget to ask about Atalanta's news when he was chatting with the people in the village, the village chief was not surprised about this matter, after all, there are very few female warriors in this era, and many Everyone was very curious about Atalanta, and the villager did not hide the fact that Atalanta was picked up by the village hunters.

After collecting enough information, the other party even secretly asked someone to draw a picture of Atalanta before leaving the village.

All this seemed normal, since Atalanta refused the offer no matter who it was.

But when Arcadia's convoy left, Atalanta sighed unconsciously.

Because she knew she had to face her 'destiny'.

In the middle of the night, the fire in the village was completely extinguished, but a portal opened outside the village.

Lancer, who was wearing a cloak, jumped out of the portal, carefully looked around and made sure that he was not noticed before sneaking towards the village.

In order to guard against thieves and wild beasts, the village established certain outposts. Unfortunately, these outposts were all established under the guidance of Lancer and Atalanta, and he entered the village easily.

"Bang~bang~"

It took two taps on a closed window before it opened.

In fact, Lancer also thought about whether he would encounter the legendary "welfare CG" if he broke in suddenly, but after thinking about it again and again, he gave up this seemingly good option. After all, if he really saw it by accident Fortunately, if he had such an idea and did such a thing, wouldn't he be sorry for Atalanta's trust in him?

Lancer thought that he still had a good balance of integrity, so he blocked this possibility through proposals from the beginning.

When he turned over and entered the room, he saw Atalanta leaning against the window with a worried face.

After thinking for two seconds, Lancer guessed the answer.

"The people from Arcadia are here?"

Facing Lancer's question, Atalanta just nodded but didn't say anything. Lancer also patted her on the head.

"It's okay, it was agreed before, I will help you secretly."

Maybe it was because he was used to it, or because he knew that Lancer's purpose of doing this was just to comfort himself, so Atalanta rarely got angry, but nodded silently.

After finishing the hunt, Jason and Hercules left together. According to them, they planned to continue searching for the 'Argo' and at the same time summoned the crew. The two parties made an appointment to send someone to inform Lancer before he was ready to go to sea. , If you have time, then set out with them.

As for Lancer, he also chose to 'leave' after handing over the territory to the village that adopted Atalanta.

The explanation to the outside world is very simple. Lancer gave the land to Atalanta in order to repay Atalanta's life-saving grace. This matter was also approved by the king. Ser simply chose to separate from Atalanta. As for the meeting between the two, they exchanged information through the portal opened by 'Atiesh'.

Of course, if Atalanta is in danger, Lancer can still use the command spell to know that even if the two are separated, each other's safety can be guaranteed to a certain extent, not to mention that Atalanta is not a flower in a greenhouse. In the forest, she grew up and started hunting again and again, but she was a true huntress.

As Atalanta expected, a message came to the village only a few days later.

The king of Arcadia openly invites Atalanta.

Atalanta's expression didn't change at all when she heard the news in the archery range, and her calmness was surprising, because she was already mentally prepared.

Atalanta did not hesitate when the party that had come to invite him arrived.

"Let's go."

But before boarding the carriage, she unconsciously glanced at the forest far away from the village, and then boarded the carriage.

The reason why she didn't hesitate was because she knew that someone was silently protecting her, and she was no longer alone at this time.

Chapter 23 Lancer Who Couldn't Speak

When the envoy to Calydon took out the portrait of Atalanta and the 'testimonies' of the village chief, he suddenly felt a 'thump' in his heart, because at this time their majesty the king's expression changed. It was very subtle, like a memory, and seemed to be sighing something, and the queen, who was called by the king, was almost crying after seeing the portrait.

Since ancient times, almost none of the courtiers who interfered with the royal family died well. The messenger at this time can be sure that the woman named 'Atalanta' must be related to the royal family, otherwise the king and queen would not behave so abnormally, but at this time He no longer cared about the reward he was looking forward to, he only hoped that he would not be silenced.

But when he was wondering, the king finally spoke.

"I'll give you another task, to invite this girl named Atalanta to Arcadia. As for the reason... the king and queen want to chat with her."

"Yes! Your Majesty! I'm going!"

After saluting, Fang Fang left the study room as if fleeing for his life, but in fact he was indeed running for his life, and he had even made up his mind to return home after completing this mission, even though he was only under 40 years old now.

At this time, no one except the king and queen knew that this seemingly ordinary invitation might affect the future of the entire kingdom.

Just a few days later, the envoy who led the envoy back again had a more serious expression than the last time, because when he returned last time, he thought that the woman named Atalanta should be related to the queen. As for the king, he probably didn't know about it, but After he experienced the previous incident, he can be sure of one thing, that is, both the queen and the king know about the girl. It seems that the matter is not as simple as the queen putting a hat on the king, but has a bigger secret. .
