Astraea's method was actually very simple - a romantic relationship based on the premise of not requiring any responsibility was something that Su Qing would not refuse given her situation.
Therefore, under her guidance, Artemis did not aim for true love, but approached Su Qing under the banner of love with certain purposes.
From Artemis' perspective, that was using love as an excuse, but from Astraea's perspective, it was precisely because of this excuse that Su Qing was really likely to cooperate with her in acting, and there was the possibility of further contact.
As the years go by, people become more cunning. According to Astralia’s analysis…
Su Qing is not uninterested in matters between men and women. On the contrary, she is very interested in them. However, due to responsibility or some other reasons, she is temporarily hesitant about them.
If someone really went to Su Qing with the idea of finding true love, and said that she fell in love with Su Qing, Su Qing would most likely reject her... Or, she would say, "Calm down first, or wait for xx years, and I will give you the answer then."
Artemis's approach showed that she had ill intentions and was relatively weak, so Su Qing would not be on guard.
Astraea was full of confidence. She had seen through everything to this extent. How could this turn out to be wrong? How could it turn out to be wrong?
but……
“…This development is really difficult!”
Watching the two people's awkward conversation, Astraea didn't know whether to laugh or cry. No matter how perfect the plan was, problems would always arise in inexplicable places when it was implemented.
After all, the two parties involved and her, the planner, have zero total dating experience.
When it comes to dating and love, I'm really confused.
Even the subordinates' families were the same. Artemis' families were forbidden to have impure love. If Astraea were to talk about her love experience...
Then she can only say that female keto is prohibited.
When faced with the children in her own family who admired her to the point of having ill intentions towards her, Astraea carefully fooled them. It was not really a good experience.
How about finding someone to give you some advice?
This thought came to Astraea's mind.
……
How should I choose topics when I am with women?
Before traveling through time, Su Qing had seen similar topics on the Internet. There were always groups of single people pretending to be love gurus and telling about their experiences in finding love.
First, find a topic that interests both parties.
Su Qing thought to himself, that must be a god.
The gods of the box garden, the gods of the other world, and the differences between gods with the same name, and the differences between them.
Su Qing talked about Hestia and then Athena, and the communication with Artemis seemed to be on the right track. The two walked together, talking and laughing, as if they were really a couple.
Artemis' eyes flickered slightly, and she felt that the atmosphere seemed to be brewing well, so she suddenly stopped.
Su Qing followed Artemis to a stop and asked, "What's wrong?"
Artemis took a deep breath, firmed herself up, and fiddled with the corner of her clothes like an innocent girl, with her head lowered, but from time to time she looked up slightly at Su Qing, her face slightly red.
"Hey, what kind of person is the 'I' in the little garden?"
The corner of Su Qing's mouth twitched. This kind of acting... He could only say that Artemis was really willing to spend a lot of money.
Artemis thought to herself, starting with the girl in the box garden as a way to change the subject, then connecting it to her, and then naturally turning the subject back to Su Qing.
After listening to her own self in the small garden...she began to feel comparative, which is normal, right?
Thinking of this, Artemis looked a little sad.
Artemis looked at Su Qing directly with a hint of unconfidence in her tone, as if she wanted to ask Su Qing for an answer: "She has the advantage in terms of strength, but... I want to know, what about other aspects... as a woman?"
Artemis wasn't actually interested in this.
She was a little curious about what kind of person the other Artemis was like, who had the same name and the same priesthood as her, but that was just curiosity.
Not competitive.
When it comes to competition, the moon gods have always been indifferent.
In the heavens, when the gods were forming the pantheon game, the gods of Olympus had a quarrel over who was the first goddess of the pantheon.
The three goddesses who fought to the death were Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite.
For example, Hestia had no intention of participating at all, and just stayed at home in the temple.
Artemis was the same, not thinking it was anything to worry about.
Artemis thought to herself, it's not that she isn't competitive at all, but only when there is a need for it.
If she really fell in love with Su Qing, and she in the box garden was in a romantic relationship with Su Qing - to this extent, she would probably become competitive and want to compete with herself in the box garden.
——There is no need to distinguish between the strengths, but she will not back down regardless of her superiority or inferiority as a wife and as a woman.
But now... well, anyway, I'll just pretend to be hostile to the other her.
Moreover, her strength was far weaker than the other party, so she felt inferior and worried that she would not be able to surpass the other her in every aspect...
That's it.
Artemis looked at Su Qing expectantly.
——I have shown my vulnerable side, please come and comfort me.
Su Qing hesitated for a moment.
It’s not that he can’t see it. Some people always regard the man’s slowness as an EQ problem...but it’s actually an IQ problem.
The problem with emotional intelligence is that you can see the truth but don't care. For example, now, Su Qing said, "That's your own business, go and compete on your own, don't bother me."
If you see the problem but just don’t want to respond in the correct way, or are too nervous to think of a way to respond, then that is an emotional intelligence problem.
In love, it is obvious that the girl likes you, but because you care too much and lack confidence due to past experiences, it means you lack emotional intelligence.
There is no sign of anything wrong. The woman hit the man right in the face. The man only knows how to be asshole. It's not a lack of emotional intelligence, it's an uncivilized brain, it's an IQ problem.
Here, it seems like he should be praising Artemis?
Say something like you are yourself and there is no need to compare yourself with others, or say something like you are more beautiful in my heart than the other person?
——Su Qing was very sure that this would win Artemis’ favor.
Wear it a thousand times, but flattery never wears it.
Not to mention that Artemis, with her upright character, was not suited to lying.
She would have felt guilty for deceiving Su Qing, and if Su Qing took the opportunity to praise and comfort Artemis, would this guilt continue to grow? Would her favorability increase rapidly?
but……
Artemis of the Little Garden...
Su Qing's eyes flickered slightly.
Su Qing took a deep breath and said, "...you'd better forget that name. When you get to the small garden, try to control yourself and don't think about it."
"What?" Artemis was stunned.
"It's very likely to be dangerous." Su Qing shrugged and said, "Artemis in the box garden... Anyway, just don't think about it."
Chapter 58: God of War
Artemis was startled.
Artemis was clear that the self in the other world must be different from the self now.
but……
"…It's better not to even mention it?"
Artemis asked, "She's the difficult type."
The kind that feels provoked when seeing someone with the same name as her? Artemis has never seen such a noble moon goddess.
"No, of the Greek pantheon in the box garden, I am most familiar with Athena, and I don't know much about Artemis."
Su Qing said: "But even if you are not familiar with her, or have never seen her, she is dangerous."
It was because it was him that he was able to discover the problem, and it was because it was only him that he discovered the problem after coming to this wrong world.
Not long ago, he was discussing with the two goddesses in the box garden who was secretly planning the conspiracy and who was planning to destroy the former No Name.
Several suspects were narrowed down, including those who showed signs of having such abilities, those who might be hiding such abilities, and those who could benefit from those actions.
This is the only way to judge in the small garden. The mastermind behind the scenes hid his tracks very well and left almost no decent clues.
But if the perspective is expanded, the parts that are not clues in the sandbox will become flaws that cannot be ignored based on the perspective beyond the sandbox.
Su Qing took a deep breath and said to Artemis: "Let's not talk about the other you in the box garden. What do you think of Zeus?"
"Zeus of that world?" Artemis asked back.
"From this world." Su Qing said.
"Very bad." Artemis said without hesitation: "He was definitely involved in the experiment of secretly using me to deprive me of my divine power. I will remember this grudge."
"Even if we look at it from a non-personal perspective, he is not a good god. He is full of nonsense and doesn't care about ethics. Even wild animals are on his hunting list."
Apart from acting like a shy girl, Artemis always kept a calm expression in front of Su Qing, but when Zeus was mentioned, a rare expression of disgust appeared on her face.
"but……"
Disgusted as she was, Artemis continued, "However, among all the gods, Zeus is one of the rare ones."
“He loved this world so much.”
"Among all the gods, he is one of the most similar to human heroes. He likes wine, women, and adventure. He also gets sick from time to time, does things without considering the consequences, and brings trouble to those around him."
As he spoke, Artemis sighed inwardly.
Zeus is the lord of Olympus.
In this world, the so-called pantheon is just a game among gods to keep each other warm. No gods can kill each other. With this bottom line, it is destined that the master of the pantheon is not selected based on strength.
Only the god who is most trusted by the pantheon can become the master of the pantheon.
