How-not to be an Olympian God!

The room fell equally silent and Alex felt a sense of mental fatigue at today's happenings and collapsed on the royal bed and looked at the ceiling.

The mattress was comfortable, beyond anything he's ever slept on and he could spread his body in the bed and still have a large area left.

He stayed in this vegetative state for a few minutes before this calm was interrupted by loud knocks on the door.

The person knocking didn't wait for his approval and immediately opened the door, it seemed they were quite rude.

Alex turned his head in the direction of the door and was a bit surprised by what he saw.

It was a woman. She has a head of dark shiny hair reaching her waist and tanned dark skin.

Her face had a rounded yet symmetrical shape and her eyes were shaped like an upturned tulip petal yet her pitch-black irises felt as deep as the oceans. She wore a magenta and white toga covering her private parts but not concealing her athletic build.

What was more shocking than her beauty, however, were the words coming out of her mouth.

'Was this Athena?' Alex wondered

"Huh, so you are the f*cking newcomer," She looked like a mermaid, but she spoke like a pirate. Alex doubted this was Athena, as he knew Athena to be calm, collected, cold, and formal. This person before him was the exact opposite of all those things.

"Hello?" Alex signaled to the woman.

"Heh?" She turned her head in curiosity, then spoke in a condescending tone.

"Are you Alexei, Lady Athena's son? How did you get here? As far as I'm aware, you've not gotten here through your own personal power," Putting aside her mean words, It seemed like everyone was mispronouncing his name

In actuality, Alex did kind of get here through connections and he remembered the background Hermes made for him, as Athena's son who was granted residence in Olympus, and it made it look like he got in through the backdoor.

"And who are you?" Alex asked politely.

"Crista, a member of the divine nymph species. I was somewhat working under Aphrodite but she assigned me to attend to your needs now," 'Crista', introduced herself.

She continued, "But let me tell you, I'm not attending to the needs of anybody here. I only came because I would be given Nectar to extend my lifespan and youth."

Alex started to find her kind of annoying so he tried to ignore the buzzing fly in his head and fortunately, an incoming guest saved him.

It was a woman too and she was advancing in graceful steps. She was dressed in a full greek navy blue and white toga that draped all around her body and made her look like Socrates. She had dark blue hair wrapped in a bun and pale skin. Her skin looked youthful but her deep eye sockets made her look a bit more aged and mature.

Her facial expression was emotionless and thus made her seem distant and unapproachable.

"Behave." The woman spoke in a deep and cold voice to 'Crista'. It sounded like it was the same woman who saved him from Hermes' pranks earlier and the famed Athena, goddess of wisdom and war.

'Crista' stopped speaking when she saw the silhouette and heard that voice and kowtowed deeply while trembling like she drank too much coffee.

"I apologize, Lady Athena." She spoke in a formal tone, in contrast with her earlier pattern of speech.

He chuckled and she gave him a spiteful side glance, sending chills to his body.

'Athena' nodded all the while maintaining her expressionless face and turned her head to me.

"Welcome. Take this" Athena nodded at me and approached to give me something she took out of her pocket.

It was a beautiful silver necklace and the pendant was sculpted to the shape of an owl.

It looked like Athena was someone who spoke few words so I only said "Thank you, Lady Athena." and politely took the necklace from her hand.

She nodded again and turned around to leave the room.

When she was near the door, however, she spoke "It's Athena, not Lady Athena." without turning around and immediately left.

Crista kept checking whether Athena had taken her leave and when she did, she stood up and pouted "How come a weakling can call her by her name and I have to use honorifics? What an effing contradiction." Crista spoke, of course including curses in her sentences.

It was then that a ray of golden-orange light hit Alex and he looked out and realized it was already approaching dusk as the sunset on the beautiful white landscape.

While he was enthralled by the scenery, Crista said to him, "I'l go to sleep, don't bother me, will you?"

He didn't want to deal with her anymore so he kept silent as she left the room and kept looking at his reaction while she left.

'I finally felt in peace and I fell into thought about the people I've met today.

Hermes, the messenger of Olympus, he's a bit of a trickster and can be playful but he seems reliable and trustworthy.

Athena, goddess of wisdom and war, she's calm and smart and is peaceful.

I like her presence as she's not annoying and doesn't bother with unnecessary words or actions, I need to learn from her pragmatism.

And finally Crista. She's an annoying fly who buzzes around you and curses like a pirate and is tyrannous against the weak and fearful of the strong. She's supposedly Aphrodite's gift to me as she's an attendant although it doesn't seem like she'll take her duties seriously.

I wondered how Aphrodite, goddess of love and beauty, and grew a bit curious about her relationship with Hermes, who didn't seem to like her.'

Alex noted all of the people he's met today and then diverted his attention to the necklace that Athena gave him. She didn't specifically tell him what it did but he kept playing around with it as a gift from Athena can't possibly be ordinary.

Suddenly words appeared on his retina, making him jump in surprise.

The necklace jumped on his wrist on its own and pricked his veins, but fortunately, it only stung.

Alex wanted to check every nook and cranny of this system he received but his mental fatigue turned from today's happenings became a bit overwhelming so he decided to check everything tomorrow after sleeping.

He, therefore, threw himself on the comfortable bed and closed his eyes, awaiting good dreams tonight.
