"I am not planning anything though" Said Alfonso with an amusing smile.

"That's what they say, it seems that your actions left a huge impression on Anastasia, and that lead to a misunderstanding," Said Artemis.

"Good job in don't getting discover by the way" Said Alfonso.

"It's because the mark of the hunter level up, unless they are heretics, they won't be able to find me even if I am a few inches away from them" Said Artemis.

"Heretics?"

"It's how we call Will users, those who took one step closer to gods; more than humans, less than gods, they had the audacity to get closer to the gods and commit heresy, so, we called then heretics" Said Artemis.

"I see…that means that, at some point, Perseus and the others were also Heretics?"

"No, the thing about Perseus is that he had divine blood on him, he had the blood of Zeus, so, he was also blessed by the gods, he was very strong headed though, he never accepted his divine blood and become a will user instead of using his gifts, I admired him for that though; in the world we came from, will users without divine blood were almost nonexistent, I only remember one human, he was the first Heretic who try to challenge the gods, he really was an interesting human" Said Artemis.

"Oh? Who this person may be?" Asked Alfonso.

"If my memory doesn't fail me, his name was Odysseus, he had the most powerful will I had ever seen, he challenged Poseidon and almost won, that shook our core and all gods had a meeting, it was a shame to kill such a 'unique' human, however, Poseidon was enraged, although I don't like him that much, he must be one of the most 'decent' brothers I have, so, to see him that furious, was really something to watch, so, we made a vote an decide to make things difficult for him, hehe, who would know that we shot ourselves on the foot" Said Artemis.

Alfonso had an idea of what coming next, after all, who hadn't read the Odyssey.

"He got stronger right?" Asked Alfonso.

"As you say, when he got back to his wife, his will power was too strong, even I would say that, if we faced in an open area, I wouldn't have been his match, so, we decided to leave him alone and give him a 'grace' from Zeus himself, however, he told us that he wanted Poseidon's grace, obviously, he was mocking at us, that event made the already enraged Poseidon almost loss his mind, at the end, we decided to take a step back and offer him a place in the Olympus with the condition that his blood would end with his son, he accepted… but Poseidon had other plans, he asked the sisters of destiny to make his dead as cruel as possible… I don't know what he offered in exchange though… anyway, after the events… he was killed by his own son and had to see how his son married his wife, however, he was 'trapped' in the Olympus, so he couldn't do much, eventually, he became crazy and we banish him to the Tartarus… truly a sad story for such an incredible man" Said Artemis with an unusual sadness.

"It seems that you two were close?" Asked Alfonso.

"He was my very first male friend, in fact, he was the one who saved me from my stupid disciple Orion, I pledged for father to reconsider his decision, however, what was done was done, nobody could enter the Tartarus… since then, my hate for men got stronger, just seeing my father made me want to puke… as for Poseidon… what could I do, 'he challenged the gods, alias, he was punished' those were his words… since that day, I went to the forest and lived there on my own" Said Artemis.

Alfonso listened to Artemis's history and remained silent.

He stood up and kneeled in front of her, then he grabbed her hand.

"I am sorry, that I made you remembered…" Said Alfonso.

"It's okay, it's all in the past after all" Said Artemis.

"… I will make you a promise right here, right now" Said Alfonso.

He put his pinky finger on Artemis's

"I will bring back Odysseus, no matter the cost" Said Alfonso with a serious face.

Artemis looked back at Alfonso with a surprised expression, she made a small smile and kissed the finger pinky friend of Alfonso.

"It's a promise" Said Artemis.

.............................................

Alfonso was looking at his window like he usually does when he needed to relax.

"It seems that you are troubled with something, it's for what Artemis said?" Said a voice behind him.

"Eavesdropping isn't a good habit you know?" Said Alfonso.

"I didn't, but, I got the idea when I saw Artemis, she never gets sad, never, at least, she talks about Odysseus; however, after making a sad face she looked at her pinky and the sadness disappeared, it was a simple as add two and two to figure out what happened" Said Demeter with a playful smile.

"You knew?"

"As you know, I don't really get involved with the world affairs, however, Odysseus also caught my attention when he challenged Poseidon, I wanted to intervene when Poseidon when to the sisters of destiny, however, Zeus didn't want a war between gods to happened, neither do I, so I took a step back, it really saddened me when Odysseus loss his mind and was sent to the Tartarus" Said Demeter.

"…"

Alfonso didn't say anything and looked at the window once again, however, he didn't realize that his nails were craving on his palm.

Demeter looked at Alfonso's hand and notice some blood running out, however, she just made a sweet smile.

She stood up and lend her back on Alfonso's back.

"You really love us very much" Said Demeter.

Alfonso looked at his reflex in the window and realized that his right eyed was burning!

"Poseidon, If I don't make you kneel in front of Artemis, my name isn't Alfonso Lockheart"
