Chapter 23, The Odyssey

For Ritsuka Fujimaru, of course she didn’t know much about the world-famous Greek mythology.

Leaving aside the famous Twelve Gods of Olympus, he didn't know much about Odysseus.

So, Yagi changed his method to introduce Odysseus to her.

"Let's put it this way, Odysseus' deeds are written in the Odyssey."

"Ah! Assassin's Creed and Ragnarok?!"

"Can we stop mentioning Odyssey and think of the game first!"

Odysseus himself watched the two people playing tricks skillfully and stood confused.

So, Yagi simply explained the story of the Odyssey to him.

This is the story surrounding the famous Trojan War.

Achilles, Ajax, Hector, these heroes all came out at this time.

Alexander in later years was their ardent fan.

There is a famous work in history called Homer's epic poem, which is divided into two chapters, "The Iliad" and "The Odyssey".

Hearing this, Fujimaru thought with excitement: It would be great if you came from the Iliad! I have read the Iliad well! Ah... speaking of it... it seems that there is indeed a name in it similar to Oder

The name of Hughes? Hmm... It's all your Greeks' fault for having such strange names! No one has illustrated it yet, how could I remember it?

Ritsuka was making very unreasonable criticisms of Odysseus in her mind.

After listening silently to Yagi's description, Odysseus nodded: "So, am I such a man? It's the same as in my impression. Then, the woman I am looking for is Penelope. I must

Will come back to her."

"Well, I believe you will be fine. But, before that."

Yagi Xuezai said, his face darkened, he held the holy sword in his hand, aimed at Odysseus' ribs and stabbed it. The strange thing is that Odysseus did not dodge, and just let his sword penetrate him.

It passed through the armor, penetrated the skin, and stabbed out from the back.

The sword thrust was very biased and did not hurt any vital parts, but it hurt a lot. Odysseus groaned and took two deep breaths to ease the pain. Yagi pulled out his sword and shook off the blood.

"This sword was struck for Circe."

"Is that so? You are really a gentle person. Just as I judged."

Odysseus was clearly stabbed, but he still gave such comments to Yagi.

"Oh, you old man, don't say such disgusting things."

Yagi had goosebumps all over his body and shook his head to avoid him.

Why did Odysseus take his sword at the front door? He noticed that Yagi's demeanor changed obviously after hearing that his name was Odysseus, with some anger.

Odysseus has seen many angry people, but Yagi's angry mood swings are different from them, and more similar to Achilles during the Trojan War. His anger is not for himself, but because of other people.

After listening to his description of the story of the Odyssey, Odysseus became more certain of this feeling. When he described himself, his words would become sharp, which was an expression of his attitude.

Therefore, in order to calm his anger and prevent the team from falling apart, Odysseus judged that it would be best for him to take the initiative to bear the opponent's blow. He is not the kind of person who ignores the overall situation and will definitely choose to fight despite the pain.

But it's an attack that won't hurt your vital parts.

And... Odysseus doesn't hate a person who would be so angry that he would swing a sword for others.

After that, he said the name Circe. Although Odysseus had no impression of this name at all, after listening to the description, he also spent a whole year with her on a desert island... Odysseus just

He wondered why he would do this. Unless Circe said otherwise and gave him no advice to sail, he would never linger on a deserted island for her.

However, the point is not the facts, nor what he thinks, but what Yagi thinks. Probably, in his eyes, he is a man who clearly has a wife he loves but still behaves inappropriately with other women. And...from the time he mentioned Kagome

Circe's expression fluctuated... Is this person Circe's husband or lover?

Odysseus quickly sorted out this context in his mind. The wound had healed, and as he recalled his true name, even the Noble Phantasm could be released.

"Everyone, I have recalled it. My job is as a rider. If you don't mind, I will use my mount to travel. Fly across this sea area."

Speaking of Odysseus' famous deeds, he was probably favored by Athena, or was he a Trojan horse?

Considering the rider, he himself mentioned the mount, that is to say...a horse? Or a chariot?

It is a pity that Yagi watched Odyssey because he wanted to understand Circe in it, and did not pay much attention to the content of Odysseus.

In fact, this is a typical preconception. Because he becomes friends with so and so first, he regards those who are hostile to him as bad people.

For example, Medea. Because she came to Chaldea very early, everyone knows more or less what kind of person this great witch is, so they will think that Jason, who caused Medea so much pain at that time, is a bad guy. However, the fact is

The thing is, Jason is indeed not a good person, but at least he has the shining points of a hero. He can be regarded as a hero for ordinary people, right?

And there is...Circe. Because Yagi has a good impression of Circe, although he is not ready to treat her as his wife - as he said himself, the heroic spirits will return to the Hall of Valor after all. Now the bond is getting deeper, and when they part ways

The more uncomfortable he became - but he still placed Circe in a very important position in his heart. Naturally, he didn't think much of Odysseus who had deeply hurt her.

Because Yagi has never read the biography of Odysseus carefully, he will not know...

Odysseus's Noble Phantasm is the Trojan Horse.

So, let’s sort out the Trojan horses now.

That is a very famous deed. In short, there are many soldiers hidden in the huge horse's belly. In other words, the Trojan horse is regarded as a mount, rather than a vehicle.

Then, what happens next is easy to understand.

"Aegis connection - Noble Phantasm hangar connection - Trojan horse! Launch!"

Odysseus, who had a face like steel, raised his right hand high and looked at the blue sky. A dazzling blue light passed through the sky like a sharp blade and landed on the island in front of everyone.

Accompanied by the violent sound of trees and grass being crushed, and the heavy impact, a silver-white steel horse appeared in front of everyone! The space in its belly alone can accommodate at least thirty or forty warriors.

It is conceivable that, let alone the Trojans, no matter who sees this thing, they will think about taking it back!!!

It’s just like the beast-shaped robot that appears in the anime!

"What! It's not made of wood at all!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka complained sharply. Odysseus shook his head apologetically: "I'm sorry to disappoint you. This time, we will make a special exception and allow everyone to ride together."

As Odysseus spoke, he put a helmet on his head, blocking his rock-like face. Miraculous magic emanated from his armor. Everyone felt the space around them change, and the ground beneath their feet suddenly disappeared.

, the body instantly lost weight and fell into the darkness.
