Greek Mythology: The Spiritual Dominator

Winter in the world not only affects the earth, but also many places in the world are affected by seasonal changes as the climate becomes colder.

In other words, Demeter did not bring winter, and what she really controlled was never the changes of the four seasons. It's just that the world needs the complete four seasons, and then it will be used as a node to come to this world. The anger of the goddess of fertility is just an introduction.

Just like now, when the concept of [winter] was born in this world, the first thing that was noticed was not the living beings on the earth, but the gods or artifacts that were also connected to it. In the fourth spiritual world, the [Well of Reincarnation] is surging and seems to be echoing something from a distance.

As a symbol of the [cycle] of all things in the world, the perfection of the four seasons spontaneously caused the power of this [Creation Artifact] to surge. It tried to pull the concept of [Winter] into the spiritual world according to some mysterious induction. However, despite the extremely powerful power of the artifact, it was still unable to do this.

Because the world is cut off from the extra power of this spiritual artifact, it only instinctively retains the connections between [Spring], [Summer], [Autumn] and [Winter]. Although this connection is still considered close, it is obviously not as good as Demeter, who personally guided the coming of winter, or even her daughter Persephone.

Therefore, no matter how the well water fluctuates, when the concept of "winter" in Khaos is gradually completed with this long cold season, the cycle originally composed of "spring", "summer" and "autumn" is being dismantled. This may not have a drastic impact on the [Well of Samsara], but it is not impossible, because although its foundation is the mutual transformation of [life] and [death], at the beginning of its birth, the cycle of seasons was also its power. a part of.

The negative impact of the change caused a tidal wave, and the surface of the rolling well rippled endlessly. For this reason, when she first discovered this change, the guardian of the Well of Samsara, the goddess of autumn Erene, went to the fifth level of the spiritual world and reported the situation to Ryan. However, at that time, the reply she received Just wait.

The right time has not come yet. Although Erinye doesn't know what the right time is, Ryan's decision is always right, so she returned to the [Well of Reincarnation] and continued her previous work.

Until today, according to the mysterious connection between herself and the artifact, Erinye, who woke up from her busy schedule, suddenly discovered that there seemed to be some unexpected changes at the bottom of the endless well.

Something is being born, or in other words, some kind of consciousness is awakening.

"This is……"

"This is the new life of a 'dead' person."

I don't know when, Ryan was already standing on the well wall like a high wall. Inside the mouth of the well, the water waves became more and more turbulent, but the splashing waves would stop when they leaped to a certain height, as if they had hit some barrier and fell back into the well.

Nearby, the team of souls originally waiting for reincarnation had stopped. Apparently, the [Well of Reincarnation] at this time had temporarily lost its original function due to inexplicable changes.

"Your Highness."

With a respectful greeting, Erinye on the side bowed her head slightly. In front of her, Ryan just waved his hand, and then signaled that the other party didn't need to be polite.

"Look Erinye, today is the right time."

“If you don’t want some things, then let those who can ask for them ask for them.”

Speaking softly, Ryan, who is familiar with the trajectory of mythology, naturally already knew about the four seasons.

The report from the Goddess of Autumn just allowed him to determine the specific time. But Zhigui knew that this did not mean that Ryan could also take the power of [Winter] into his bag. Even at this moment, it had not yet been delegated to a specific person in this world. On a certain creature.

After all, whether it is given to Demeter or attributed to Persephone, it is because they are gods in this world that they can cause the "cold winter", not for any other reason.

Strictly speaking, it is the arrival of winter that causes all things to wither, not the other way around. The goddess of fertility's behavior just happens to conform to the laws of the world's perfect four seasons, which leads to the advent of [winter].

Therefore, even if a god from the spiritual world is replaced and uses another method to cause the decline of all things, it cannot replace Demeter's existence. It is already the third era after all, and some loopholes in the laws that existed in the second era have long since disappeared. There is no way around this.

But even though he said that, it was obviously impossible for Ryan to really sit back and watch the cycle of seasons be torn apart. [The Well of Reincarnation] is one of the cores of the spiritual world. Naturally, he cannot allow this kind of thing to happen. Fortunately, some reasons have been laid as early as the day when reincarnation was opened, and now, it is time for it to come to fruition.

"Eros was supposed to be a great primitive god. You died before you were born because of Chaos and me. But it is precisely because you were never 'born' that you still have a chance to come back again."

"Your 'death' is entangled with me, and I used it to shape reincarnation. Then your 'life' also begins from this. From now on, you are an independent living being."

Ryan spoke softly, and the fourth spiritual world shook slightly. The vast power extended from the void and plunged into the bottom of the [Well of Reincarnation] to complete the final change.

Since the creation of reincarnation relied on the 'death' of Eros, while it symbolized life and death, it naturally also brought the opportunity of 'reincarnation' to the original god himself, and most importantly, in the original life of Chaos In the trajectory, there is actually a paradoxical existence of the other party.

The goddess of beauty Aphrodite, her original husband in mythology was not the god of war, but the wife of the craftsman god Hephaestus. But the nature given by the priesthood made her unwilling to be bound by marriage, and her husband's ugliness and disability made her hate it deeply, so it was almost natural that she secretly pursued her own 'love', and the handsome and strong Ah Reese is naturally one of her most frequent lovers.

And in the process, the two of them gave birth to an illegitimate child, a little cupid who also left behind many legends, but seemed to have some connection with the original god from the beginning of creation. He is also named "Eros" in mythology, and he also has authority related to love. It is hard to believe that there is no relationship between them - of course, in addition to Eros, he also has another well-known name The name was also the title given to him by the Romans - Cupid.

Ryan didn't know what was special about this little god of love who had the same name as the original god without his existence, and what deep secrets there were, but no matter whether they were originally connected or not, now he just needed to let them have it. alright. What's more, in the field of occultism, the name itself carries extremely distinct personal traces. People with the same name can naturally carry similar fates.

So looking at the surging wellhead, Ryan reached out and pressed down.

"Click——"

Silently, something illusory was cut off and spliced ​​together, and at the bottom of the [Well of Reincarnation], the breath of life became more and more obvious.

The unborn and dead divine is there, and today he will be reborn.

…

It's night on Mount Olympus.

Everything that happened in the spiritual world did not reach here. On the contrary, the so-called 'opportunity' that Ryan was waiting for actually appeared because of the changes here.

Everything needs an opportunity to fit in with the inherent destiny of this world, and then there is room for various operations. And the introduction of all this can be attributed to the first night meeting between the two gods on the sacred mountain.

Hundreds of years have passed, and the old view has long been repeated on Mount Olympus, the residence of the gods. Under the light of the stars and the moon, they shine with different colors, and under the reflection of the authority of different temple owners, they embellish the pillars that support the sky.

Nearly halfway up the mountain, a grand sea of ​​flowers spreads out on the flat ground. Roses, pomegranates and myrtle (a kind of flower) bloomed one after another, and they surrounded a small and exquisite temple. The white pillars are carved with waves, waves and foam. Their exquisite reliefs seem to allude to the birth of the owner here.

There is no doubt that this is the temple of Aphrodite, the embodiment of love and beauty. More than one god once praised that the most beautiful flowers should naturally be defended by thousands of flowers, so there was this gorgeous ocean outside her temple. But at this time, bursts of violent breathing and collisions came from the hall, destroying the quiet and beautiful atmosphere here.

Under the dim and ambiguous light of the pearl, clothes were thrown messily on the ground. In the center of the huge bed, two figures were entangled together, freely venting the primitive impulses of the gods.

Although this palace has been visited by more than one god in the past years, this time, Aphrodite finally remembered Ares, who had not yet held a wedding ceremony with her.

Although the other party has not yet reached the peak of the priesthood, the God of War is the God of War after all. He possesses extraordinary power, which is naturally brought by the priesthood, and considering this situation, Aphrodite does not mind giving him a taste of the sweetness in advance.

However, today's experience was destined to disappoint the God of Beauty, because the rolling on the bed had not lasted long before the God of War froze suddenly. This handsome and burly god seemed to feel some vigilance from his spiritual sense, but he couldn't detect the problem.

This made him instinctively 'vigilant', but when he looked around, there was nothing worthy of his vigilance.

"Hmm~?"

"Ares, what's wrong with you?"

Noticing the difference in the person's condition, Meishen didn't take it seriously. She just stretched. For a time, the female temptation was fully exerted by her. However, what surprised Aphrodite was that the God of War still had no reaction to this.

But this shouldn't be right. No matter how you look at it, the muscular Ares shouldn't have such a reaction. For a moment, she even doubted her own charm.

"Afu, it's nothing, I just had a bad premonition..."

As if he noticed the strange look in the beauty's eyes, Ares quickly explained. In front of him, I don't know if she believed him or not. Aphrodite just turned her eyes and moved her belt silently.

Even if she wasn't wearing it, as the natural owner of the artifact, Aphrodite still borrowed a little bit of its power. In an instant, her charm was once again magnified in the original field.

Lying lazily on the bed, Mei Shen closed her eyes. She had used her magic weapon more than once, so she knew its effect.

When fully utilized, even the current God-King would be attracted by her, let alone the current God of War who only has moderate divine power. She was ready to be jumped on, but what surprised her again was that she waited until she couldn't help but open her eyes, and Aphrodite only saw the embarrassed look in the God of War's eyes.

Obviously, perhaps the omen of destiny was so strong that Ares was always in a state of 'stress'. This was the keenest intuition as the God of War, but now, it made him less interested in Aphrodite in front of him.

If it were normal times, this wouldn't actually be a problem. Maybe Aphrodite would secretly look at him. After all, not any god can block his temptation with his will. But now, this is another way of saying it.

"A-R-S-?"

"Afu, I..."

"boom!"

In the night, with a muffled sound, Ares rolled and fell out of the palace of the God of Beauty. He got up from the cold floor and was about to say something when he was hit by clothes thrown from behind the door.

The door then closed tightly, as if its owner never wanted to see this annoying guy again. But looking at this scene, the God of War, who was originally violent by nature, couldn't get angry at all.

This was his first private meeting with Aphrodite, and he didn't expect such a result to happen. For a moment, Ares began to doubt himself. Could there be something wrong with his body that could lead to such a situation?

Of course, the God of War couldn't think of an answer, but now that the matter was over, he had no choice but to put on his clothes and walk towards his palace in depression. At this time, Ares didn't know that in the closed palace, the God of Beauty was also gnashing his teeth.

He was tall and handsome, but he was actually just a lookalike with not much ability. He also liked to make excuses. At this moment, Aphrodite, who was originally satisfied with this marriage, had other thoughts again.

Different beginning, same result. Even if the lover in the original trajectory became a husband, the fate that seemed to belong to the God of Beauty remained unchanged.

…

In front of the [Well of Reincarnation] in the spiritual world, Ryan obviously didn't know what was happening on Mount Olympus.

He had only sensed the fateful fluctuations associated with the birth of the little Goddess of Love before, so he seized the perfect opportunity instead of really watching what was happening on Mount Olympus. It was impossible for him to imagine that his actions would be noticed by the God of War's fighting instinct.

Detecting changes in fate or having a clear premonition is something that only great divine power can do without the corresponding authority. If Ryan knew everything about Ares today, I'm afraid he would have to lament the power of the other party's priesthood while being amused.

Although Ares doesn't seem to win much in the myth, that's just because his opponent is stronger. As far as the priesthood itself is concerned, even if [War] favors personal violence and injustice, Ares is actually one of the rare powerful gods.

But those were all gossip. Now, looking at the well water in front of him that was almost boiling, Ryan couldn't help but nodded.

When he returned from the Nine Realms, he brought back some dragon eggs. Now that most of them have hatched, only the original Time Dragon has not yet been born.

The reason why Ryan chose the latter among [Order], [Reincarnation] and [Time] was precisely because the first two were not suitable.

[Order] is not unique to the spiritual world, and the reason why [Reincarnation] is also excluded is actually because this creature is gradually reincarnating. Otherwise, it seems that there is nothing wrong with the birth of a [Dragon of Reincarnation]. (See 3-59)

"But there are still some things missing... Destiny is there, spirituality is there, but it also needs material and carrying."

"Fortunately, my preparations finally paid off."

With a slight nod, Ryan stretched out his hand. In a palace containing treasures, a ball of blood that had been forgotten for an era flew out of the air, passed through the barrier of space and fell into his palm. (See 2-11)

It was the blood foam of Uranus, the once dangerous engraving of the sea, from which the goddess who later mastered false beauty shed her old body. But that was just the result of Ryan's unintentional creation. What he really wanted to do at that time was to take away the blood foam that later gave birth to the three goddesses of vengeance and Aphrodite.

At that time, Ryan didn't know that Eros' death was caused by him, but this did not prevent him from discovering the fact that the little God of Love had the same name as the original god based on the memories of later generations. So out of precaution, Ryan took away a spoonful of blood foam and kept it until today. Now, it finally found a place to use it.

This blood foam, which was born from the same origin as Aphrodite, easily replaced the goddess of beauty in destiny. With it as a material, it was enough to serve as another kind of 'matrix' to give Eros a new life.

"Go ahead, this is the best one for you."

With a flick of his finger, the vial containing the blood foam shattered and fell into the surging well in front of him. A certain change immediately occurred more violently. Standing on the wall of the well, Ryan watched this scene quietly.

“Come into this world…and demand reward from Him.”

"Now that [love] has collapsed, use something else as proof of your birth."
