Heracles and the Nemean lion book

Inspired by Heracles, a divine hero in Greek mythology who had performed 12 great labors, this book told about a boy named Heracles. He also was born in Tiryns and the son of Alcmene and the king of god Zeus. However, Heracles didnt know about it, always believing that his father was king Amphitryon, his mother's husband. Therefore, he always wondered why his father always liked his his twin brother Iphicles more than him; Amphitryon treated Iphicles gently while he always treated him coldly.
Heracles and his mother kept living with Iphicles and Amphitryon in Amphitryon's castle till he went to age of seven. Because of some reason he didn't know, he mother brought him to leave the castle and then lived in a nice building far away the castle after that. Accompanying with the were the Old-Gardener, Lena, July and her daughter, Amelinda. Amelinda was the same age as Heracles and was one of two best friends of Heracles and the other was Gwen, son of a lord in his country. 
Heracles and the others had normals live until he reached on age of thirteen and received a letter from the a place called Hippocoon land. That was the first time he knew about the existence of another world, the magic world and he was one of the people who were chosen to come to the place to study.
Fortunately, his two best friends also like him received the letter. They came to Hippocoon land together, started studying, controlling their power and learning about the magic world together.

Chapter 3: The owl of wisdom (part 2)

“A proud boy.” said the owl of wisdom, “Let me see you.” It flew slowly around Hank, “Your god Ares seem to favor you. A vulture symbol under was your ear and a spear symbol was on your arm. You are wise boy who know to come after fight and get the spoils. However, you are also great in combat if you need to do it. You are a good boy will sever your god well in future.” said the owl of wisdom. “Please go to the table closest to your left. It’s the place for Aresians.” Hank made his way to his family where many people had stayed there. “Bravo!”, “Great boy!” said others there. They shook Hank’s hand, greeted with high five. The place turned crowded in minutes and made Heracles not happy much.  Next after Hank was Morela who was also sat on the same boat with Heracles. Morela came from Delphi the city was protected by god Apollo, the sun god. Of course, she was blessed by her god, a symbol of the sun appeared brilliantly at the middle of her head in golden light. The owl of wisdom ...

Chapter 11: The gate (part 9)

A loud bag spread out above their heads. Two hooded cloak men lied quietly on ground. Roger walked to the gallery. “Heracles, Gwen and Amelinda, you all are here. It is hard to find you” he called up. He hurriedly made the way step down the stairs. Though his body was big and stout, he moved very fast coming to them and froze as he saw a dead on ground. “Who are they?” he asked softly, looking on Amelinda. “This is Lily and - Aunt Calliope.” Amelinda said hesitantly; “She is Lily’s mother. She saved all of us.” she added sadly.  Between curly hair and bushy beard which almost covered his face were warm eyes. She warmly looked on Lily who was sitting on ground holding her mother’s hand. He decided to keep silent, turned to Heracles, Gwen, Amelinda then turned to the dead Hydra dragon which was not far away from them.  “I dont know how you could kill the dragon but there has one thing we have to do before we leave this place.” said Roger calmly, “Go with me Amelinda. I need your...

Chapter 3: Where is All-For-You shop (part 2)

“We can’t ask him.” squealed Gwen, “He is the person I don’t want to tell most. We should find All-For-You shop first and If we don’t find it, we will try to find other ways.” “We have no other choice.” said Heracles.  The carriage kept moving in long time then stopped. “We came - master.” the voice of the coachman coming in. “We Out Heracles.” said Gwen.  Heracles stood up at one. He kept his head down, gabbed on door handle then pushed it open. He made his way step out landing on the ground first, Gwen right after him then stepped aside. He turned to his coachman. “Find the way to park and make sure you can see us when we turn back. We will not here long time.” he said. “Follow your words, master.” said the coachman solemnly. He leathered the horses riding away.  Hurriedly, Heracles and Gwen strode off. They heading to a narrow aisle between houses, where they found All-For-You shop last time. It’s always deserted inside the aisle every times they walked in it and didn’...
