The Greece Antagonist

Chapter 195 Circe's Day of Suffering (4k)_2

"lastly, there was a half-centaur with golden-brown hair, green eyes, and a rather agreeable personality. he mentioned there were quite a few visitors down the mountain, so i generously gave him a few extra pieces for free..."

as a certain enchantress tallied up her rather scant three batches of customers, the mountain once again echoed with a muffled thumping sound.

a giant wild boar with golden-brown fur and standing several meters tall stood up from the collapsed wooden hut, looking around in a daze.

and on its body seemed to grow a pair of horse's ears and tail...

"yes, that's the one!"

circe turned her head at the sight and couldn't help but clench her fist in excitement, letting out an exhilarating cheer.

"haha! a huge success! the hygieian porridge version 7.0 is exceptional!"

"what effect?" luo en asked, his voice faint.

"this version of hygieian porridge is a formula i've sweat blood to experiment with; it can bypass verbal suggestion and directly impart the animal characteristics i desire into food, and regular poison resistance and magic potion immunity are completely ineffective against it!"

circe proudly presented her latest academic achievement, looking at the four pigs running wild on the mountain, her lips curled up in delight.

"indeed, it's impressive, not even deities are immune to its effects," luo en looked over and couldn't help but admire sincerely.

"it's not perfect yet," circe humbly moderated her tone upon receiving the praise and regained her meticulous researcher's attitude, "although the hygieian porridge version 7.0 can temporarily alter even divine attributes, the effects displayed and the duration are still quite unstable and require further study."

at this point, circe showed some displeasure.

"when i initially took out the original hygieian porridge 7.0 and ran over to the academy of athens for taste tests, those guys, upon hearing its effects, shook their heads and refused, showing no spirit for dedicating themselves to magic. it was very rude!"

"so, you took that as filling and made little cakes, and then you went to sell them on war god mountain?"

"that's right!"

circe nodded vehemently, then, looking at the large half of little cakes still in the basket, her gaze filled with regret.

"unfortunately, now only four have bought my little cakes; it seems like the experimental data might not be enough."

thereupon, the enchantress cast her eager gaze towards the apprentice and a certain goddess of justice before her.

having heard the whole story from circe, astraea found the little cake in her arms somewhat hot to the touch and quickly stuffed it back into the enchantress's basket.

she finally understood why luo en, by her side, had prevented her time and again from eating these seemingly adorable treats.

"hey hey, don't do that! the ones i gave you have the least side effects. no matter how much you eat, it's fine, i guarantee you won't end up like them. try a piece, just try one!"

circe picked up a little cake and continued to peddle it to the two in front of her, undeterred.

astraea and luo en shook their heads firmly while silently blockading the path up and down the mountain, their gaze towards the shameless enchantress peddling her tainted products became grim.

suddenly, circe, caught in the middle, shivered, hugging her basket and shrinking back.

"why are you looking at me with such scary eyes?"

"..."

as circe heard one malicious punishment after another and saw the dangerous light streams drawing closer from the mountain, she realized something was amiss, immediately let go of luo en, and with quickness, unfolded the magic circle diagram and pulled out two full-body cloaks of the previous style.

"medea, put this on quickly! those guys are catching up!"

at the same time, a certain unscrupulous enchantress spun her eyes, stuffing the basket full of cupcakes forcefully into little medea's arms.

"here, take this too, stick close to him! we'll split up and run, we'll reconnect later!"

having said that, circe left her bewildered-looking niece behind, turned, and rushed forward, trying to escape the scene of the crime before the sealing barrier of war god mountain could completely enshroud the area.

"snap!"

however, a hand that landed on her shoulder gripped her like an iron hook and firmly held her in place.

at the same time, a ghostly voice came from behind.

"circe..."

"ouch, what are you doing, i'm trying to escape! ouch...!"

circe instinctively turned her head around, just about to complain when a hand quickly dislocated her jaw.

right after, luo en, having endured more than he could bear, with a dark face, grabbed a basket full of cupcakes and stuffed them into the mouth of the unscrupulous enchantress in front of him.

she would sell out not only her apprentice but also her niece!

this woman was beyond redemption!

"mmmph!"

unable to resist the overwhelming force, circe, her mouth now full of cupcakes, could only issue a helpless moan, swallowing forcefully and reaping what she sowed.

a moment later, as a burst of light rippled before them, a little pink piglet oinked and wriggled out from the scattered clothes on the ground, looking around in confusion.

at the same time, several streaks of light landed.

stheno, euryale, nike, and several familiar figures rushed forward, teeth clenched in rage as they looked around for the culprit responsible for their embarrassment.

in the end, everyone's gaze, half astonished and half delighted, settled ahead.

"you're back?"

luo en smiled and nodded, then he grabbed the back of the neck of a certain little piglet in front of him, hoisting it up to his eyes and spoke righteously.

"enchantress circe, you are accused of selling dangerous foods, abducting a minor, and framing others to shift blame. in my capacity as an athenian magistrate, i now officially file a lawsuit against you. from this moment on, everything you say will become courtroom evidence, and the goddess of justice astraea will judge your crimes fairly!"

"what? mmmph!"

upon hearing she had been captured, the little pink piglet's world went dark as she let out a piercing wail and "happily" fainted.
