pregnant with the president's cub
Chapter 77 Goddess
If the "posting" of the bookshelf is a war, Persephone feels that she is losing ground under Hades' offensive, and her defense line is completely destroyed.
The only record is that she insisted on not posting back. No matter how long the other party posted, she firmly resisted the temptation of inhumanity, and did not grab the other party to gnaw.
So Hades must have not seen her wavering, let alone the "unreasonable thoughts" in her head... No, what if God can read minds?
Why is Hades often like a roundworm in her stomach, guessing her mind so accurately?
This horrible guess made Persephone explode with embarrassment. As far as her head is full of unspeakable thoughts, if she really wants to be read, this earth cannot stay.
She'd have to rocket herself up immediately and go straight to space bum.
Because of this unrecognizable imagination, she swung the sword in her hand more quickly, trying to kill this mind-reading guess.
The Grim Reaper glanced at her and commented: "The fighting spirit is good, but the strength is not enough." But is the expression a little grim?
Persephone was already very familiar with the posture of holding the sword. She practiced and practiced, and suddenly turned to face the direction of Death, and slashed forward neatly, without touching any of his clothes.
After easily avoiding her, Thanadus was about to draw out his long sword to throw her weapon away and chop off a few flowers on her head, but he saw Persephone bowing his head and muttering to himself again.
She has been distracted and doesn't know what to think.
Thanadus is curious about her, and this desire to explore is rare for Death.In order to hear her words clearly, he bent down and leaned in front of her.
But she saw her fierce eyes, like a rabbit baring its teeth, showing her fierce side as if her hair was about to stand on end.
She muttered to the tip of her teeth, saying words that made the God of Death puzzled, "Could it really be seen, really seen?"
What do you see?All he could see was that Persephone was going to change from an irritable rabbit to a rolling round hedgehog, both useless and capable of jumping.
But Persephone suddenly looked up, and Chi asked him, "Can your gods read minds?"
Reaper shook his head honestly, at least he couldn't see her heart clearly.
Persephone relaxed, and happily reached out and patted his arm, "That's right, if you could read minds, you wouldn't behave like this."
After she finished speaking, she suddenly moved her fingers up Death's bare arm, and her fingertips touched the pin on his shoulder. When she grabbed it hard, the soft linen was wrapped in her palm.
"Look, I touched your clothes."
Thanadus could have dissipated into dust in an instant, preventing her fingers from landing.But when her hand touched his skin, all movements froze, and something violent exploded on the arm, like Zeus's lightning strike paralyzed his body and mind.
Even when Persephone grabbed her clothes, he could only stare blankly at her complacent appearance without any reaction.
Persephone originally wanted to sneer at him, after all, when this guy was chasing after her flowers with a sword, his mouth was poisoned, and his mouth was full of sarcasm, which often made her jump up in anger.
In the end, this cheap teacher just looked at her, maintaining the posture of being grabbed by her, a kind of thin flame ignited in his disturbingly dark eyes, faintly revealing the excitement that was about to move.This made his face, which had been dead and gloomy for many years, burst out with a sense of vividness similar to being alive,
Persefine didn't realize his danger, but felt that the other party was humiliated by her unscrupulous sneak attack, so she glared at her so hard.
She did win disgracefully, but she didn't have any psychological burden.After loosening the other party's clothes with his fingers, he explained: "You taught me to use any means."
The Grim Reaper didn't speak, but slowly backed away, and the whole person seemed to sink into the shadows again.The black wings fluttered uncontrollably, and all the lights shook uncomfortably, ready to go out at any moment.
When Death extinguishes all light, darkness becomes his slaughterhouse, and hunting becomes his instinct.
Seeing him, Persephone still had a strange expression. Could it be that she couldn't bear it so much after being won by her? God's heart is so glassy?
After all, Hades's most loyal subordinate, Persephone was afraid that he would go on strike and refrain from working, which would increase Hades' burden, so she could only pull two worthless flowers on her head tiredly, and gave them to the god of death as an apology.
"Just pretend I didn't meet you, sorry for making you uncomfortable."
So work hard, reduce the workload for Hades, and let your boss take more rest time.
Persephone felt that she was really working hard, who made the employees of Hades either be ugly old fritters (judges) or just disappear (those Furies never come to work).
As far as Reaper is concerned, he cannot be allowed to slow down because of his damaged self-esteem.
The Grim Reaper looked at the flowers she handed over, and stopped flapping his wings. All the emotions that were exposed were withdrawn in an instant, and the dangerous atmosphere also melted in front of her. He became a stone sculpture that could only teach her how to use a sword.
Just when Persephone thought that the god of death was going to be silent for a long time, and her legs were starting to feel sore and she wanted to find an excuse to leave, the flowers in her hand suddenly disappeared.
The flower did not know when it appeared on the handle of Death God's sword and turned into a decorative pattern. He stroked the pattern before saying, "You did a good job."
Persephone immediately showed a happy smile, and before she could celebrate the completion of her homework, the Grim Reaper standing in front of her had already raised his head faintly, and his body as stiff as a puppet also moved accordingly.
He pointed his sword at Persephone's face, "Then the next teaching can be stricter."
Strict, wasn't it strict enough before?
Then Persephone saw this inhuman bastard, and chased her down ten corridors with murderous aura and coercion.She is so familiar with the complicated road conditions of the palace of the underworld, and it is definitely due to the god of death.
He not only shaved, but also released terrifying things like undead skeletons, holding her tightly.
Persephone's face was really blue now, when several skeleton hands were resting on her shoulders, and a bunch of undead were blowing air on her back and sneering, she just wanted to call for help.
She knew that she would miss college life occasionally after graduation, but she didn't expect this scene when she really started to miss it.
That bright classroom with lovely and lovely classmates is 100 million times stronger than her present class in the underworld, accompanied by ghost movie BGM loudspeakers, and the teacher is sick.
Can't think about it deeply, just thinking about it will bring tears to my eyes, full of bad feelings.
Just when the god of death chased Persephone like a dog, Hades pulled his hand out of the sacrificial fire uncontrollably.Pluto, who sensed her emotions, became half-illusory, and wanted to rush to her side immediately to get rid of all the unpleasant things.
This irresistible impulse was quickly suppressed by Hades, and his body returned to its original state.
And behind him, the fire that had just been lit blazed up, and the golden flames transformed into a vague female face.
"Hades, my noble and brave brother, what you call me to light is the sacred fire that is dedicated to the Lord God, which will never be extinguished. It is because of the arrow of the god of love that you completely lost your mind and did such a self-descending thing ?"
Hades didn't look back, his eyes quietly looked in the direction of Persephone.It is not an easy task to hand over the teaching of increasing Persephone's power to the god of death.
Even if the Grim Reaper couldn't hurt Persephone and could only scare her with the simplest language, this was something he couldn't do.
Now facing Persephone, he is already as weak as a baby, unable to utter a single word in a heavy tone, and his chest is full of infinite attachment to her and the hidden desire to reproduce.
Not to mention that in order to train Persephone's foot strength, he had to put on a fierce face and chase her with a sword.
On the short altar behind him, a mellow and deep female voice continued to advise him not to make such impulsive and reckless decisions.
"You are different from Demeter. Most of her power comes from the seed god. You have now become the ruler of the underworld by your own strength, and you don't need to use such a precious and pious heart to surrender and love other gods."
The flames burned higher and higher, with scattered smoke, forming a female body shaped by fire. In the burning temperature, a holy face began to become clear.
With her eyes closed, she held an oil-filled pottery lamp commonly used in human families with both hands, and a cluster of divine soul golden flames burned quietly on the lamp.
Hades's black hair had a bewitching reddish color in the hot and twisted air. The goddess behind her lowered her neck, and her head full of flames approached his ear and whispered a warning.
"The gods of Olympus don't like you taking away the seed gods. Human beings will die in large numbers because of the lack of crops. Except for the gods who are responsible for nature, all gods rely on human beliefs to exist. Without people, there are no gods The presence."
Hades was indifferent, and took two steps forward, avoiding his sister's approach before turning to look at her.
"Hestia, I asked you to light the holy fire, not to be a lobbyist for the Olympian gods."
Hestia lowered her head, and the fire was burning in her eye sockets, but they were too empty to see any enthusiasm.She put a finger on the oil lamp, and a small cluster of golden flames licked her nails.
"When you light the holy fire, it is tantamount to telling all the gods that you will worship Persephone, and that you will be an enemy of the entire Olympus."
Hades' attention was finally drawn back. He was half-responsive with another person's emotions in his heart. When he really understood Hestia's words, all the soft fluctuations in his eyes because of love disappeared completely, and even Facing his sister's expression became extremely gloomy.
"You think I'm afraid of you?"
Just as Hestia was about to speak, she saw Hades spread her hand, and her burning body stood impressively in the palm.As long as he grabbed her hard, more than half of her bones would be shattered immediately.
Hades said to her without mercy: "Your duty is to be responsible for lighting the fire, not to imitate Hermes' sly mouth and act as a messenger that is not suitable for you."
Hestia was completely silent, and after a while she sighed, "I just don't want you to get involved in this battle. Back then Zeus used the power of Eris to throw a golden apple and pulled a lot of capable young people Entering the eastern battlefield will also cause the gods to divide and fight because of this war."
These years, Zeus sat on the neutral golden throne, mediating all the disputes of the gods like a father, took the opportunity to tear apart the originally amiable goddess power, and eliminated the faith by slaughtering human beings, and took back some of the power of the gods.
"Originally, we just thought that it would be enough for him to take away part of the power of the gods through war, but when you took Persephone away from Demeter's arms, Zeus did not agree to use his royal power to persuade you to take Persephone away. Serphine returns to the earth."
This is abnormal, Zeus is not only a natural theocracy, but his greatest power comes from human belief.If Persephone does not belong to Olympus, it will actually reduce his rights and responsibilities.
Hestia's face became sad, with tears streaming from the corners of his eyes, "The war did not satisfy his ambitions. We guess that Zeus wanted to create a new era by exterminating most of the existing human beings through drought and famine."
As a goddess who is close to human beings and holds a lot of power of human belief, when she spoke about this possible conspiracy to destroy the world, her voice trembled with pain and compassion.
"Zeus has the natural authority to control the thunderstorm in the sky. He will not fall asleep because all the human beings are dead now. He is full of force and violent. Even if the human beings on the earth die and temporarily lose the power of faith generated by human priesthood, he is enough to defeat all A god who weakens with him."
A large number of existing human beings have their own gods. Although Zeus is the most powerful person among the gods, he is not unique and irreplaceable.
It is not impossible to slaughter all these believers belonging to other gods, and then use their own divine power items to create new humans, so that they only have one god in their eyes.
When Athena told them this conjecture, all the gods who were close to humans were unwilling to realize Zeus' conspiracy, and the years of fighting made them extremely yearn for peace.
"Hades, please restrain this love that is of no benefit to you, open the closed door of the dark tomb, and return the vitality that belongs to human beings to the earth."
Hestia stretched out her palm sprinkled with sparks, trying to hold Hades' face. Her voice full of hope and face streaming with tears of fire intertwined a strange sense of sacredness.
Once again, Hades stepped back two and a half steps skillfully, avoiding her hand perfectly, but did not expect a few sparks to touch his white face.Although there were no traces left, he still lowered his eyes lightly, and brushed his fingers displeasedly across his cheeks.
Then, he raised his eyes coldly, showing a malicious smile, "The death of human beings, the fall of gods sounds like an unpleasant tragedy."
Hestia's outstretched hand froze, and she looked at Hades puzzled. She hadn't seen such a rich expression on his face for many years, and she felt uncomfortable for a while.
Hades maintained that mocking smile, closed his hands easily, and then clasped his fingers tightly, and the sound of bone cracking and flesh shattering came from the palm of his hand.
Hestia immediately bent down, forming a muddy mass, followed by screams of pain.
Hades crushed her lofty posture, looked down at the Kitchen Vulcan who had to shrink into a small ball due to serious injuries, and then spread his hands casually and said to her: "Yes, human beings will lose their vitality and crop seeds and die. You group of gods parasitic on humans will also be buried in pottery urns by Zeus, but..."
He let out a naive and cruel sigh of doubt, "So what? All I want is for Persephone to stay in Hades. Your rise and fall has nothing to do with me, and it doesn't matter if Zeus drives you all to extinction."
The prosperous land, the bright Olympus, the gods who sing beautiful songs, all have nothing to do with the underground kingdom where death is the main body.
At most, there were more dead creatures, the lamentations were a bit louder, and their official duties were just a little bit busy.
Hestia looked up slowly, hearing his purely vicious words, unable to refute for a while.
She remembered that Hades was not a kind god before his emotions were eroded by the underworld. Instead, he appeared extremely dark and crazy because of the pollution of his divine power.
This is also the reason why the theocracy of the underworld chose him so easily.
Hades seemed to be tired of changing his expression, and suddenly returned to that emotionless masked face, only his voice could still hear impatience.
"Whether you light the holy flame or not, I'm already worshiping Persephone. You are just an announcement."
Once Hestia's holy fire was lit, all the gods in the sky, the earth and the earth could see it. That's why he invited her to come, but he didn't expect that the taciturn goddess could become so noisy.
Just snatch a small part of her strength, and let him light the fire himself.
Hestia swallowed back her lament, and the flame quickly reshaped her body. Amid the crackling sound, she gathered her passionate side again, intending to seduce him with benefits.
"Too many human beings have died, and you will also be affected. The country you rule cannot accommodate so many dead souls, and their wailing and resentment will once again pollute and erode your sanity. You will be tied tightly to the throne by the souls, and eventually become a Tartarus has no emotion, no wisdom, no love."
This kind of existence almost irreversibly becomes something inanimate, not even a god, but a symbolic existence.
Hestia pointed at him. Standing on the land of Hades did not make her fearful, but instead made her even more unwilling to admit defeat.
"Hades, you who have become that kind of existence can't hold anything."
Hades didn't expect that one day, Hestia, who never got involved with these gods, would poke his weakness so sharply.He tensed his face in displeasure, moved his fingers, and began to make black iron tools that could split the power of the furnace.
Seeing his blatant robber action, Hestia had no choice but to soften up, "I'm really not good at persuading any gods, but this time you stand beside Zeus, and I don't want to see you as our enemy."
Just like the beginning of the Trojan War, the gods became two factions facing each other.The fact that Persephone did not return the land was a more serious disaster than Troy, and a large number of gods also began to protect their own interests.
The gods who are close to humans will try their best to bring Persephone back to the earth, and Demeter is the most urgent.
Has another purpose, will be vague, delaying the return of Persephone, such as Zeus and Hades.
Before Hades took away a finger, Hestia melted thorns and dipped the purest flames from the oil lamp, and she placed the flames on the altar for the gods.
Even if she is temporarily an enemy, she is not willing to live forever with her brother. After all, God's time is too long, and it is normal to separate and reunite temporarily.
"If you insist on making such irrational and chaotic decisions that have been roasted by love, I can only believe that you have the power to solve all the mistakes that will arise in the future."
Originally wanted to tell him another conspiracy, it was a lie that Hera and Athena conspired to draw the arrow for him.
Hades has lived underground for a long time, and the cries of wraiths are in his ears all the year round. He doesn't know much about various things in Olympos, and he doesn't even know that the arrow he was shot cannot be pulled out.
It's a pity that kind persuasion is useless, and Hestia can only hide this fact.
Hades even gave up the position of the main god to Persephone, waiting for him to extinguish the flame of love does not know how many years, human beings can't wait that long.
They can only look forward to Hades' occasional return of sanity, thinking that they need to pull out the arrow and return to the earth with Persephone, so that they can have the hope of snatching back the Seed God.
Hestia turned all kinds of thoughts in his head, finally calmed down, stretched out his huge palm, covered the flames on the altar, and began to bestow pure blessings.
She looked at Hades and chanted calmly: "There are stoves, altars, and fires, and you can see the light of worshiping the gods. Belief in 'her' will bring you strength and good luck. May 'her' be with you."
All of Hades' small movements of guard disappeared in this chanting. He clasped his hands together, and his fingers began to be entwined with the power of blessing that Persephone gave him.
The flowers bloomed on his fingers, purifying all ominous breaths.
When the sacred fire was lit, Hestia stepped down from the altar, leaving behind an unquenchable golden flame.
Hades walked up to the altar, put his hands in the fire, the hot golden flames burned his skin, and murmured the prayers for the offering.
The golden flame looked weak and petite in front of his tall and powerful body.
Although Hades tried his best to turn himself into a qualified believer, he didn't have the temperament of being submissive to God.Although his movements are as gentle as possible, it still makes people feel that he is much more powerful and terrifying than his main god.
It was the first time for Hestia to see such an uncoordinated and inappropriate master-slave god.
After she finished lighting the fire, she was supposed to leave in silence, but when she saw him bowing his head and kissing the holy fire lit for Persephone, her brows jumped a few times.
Can the power of the Arrow of Eros be so strong that a god's personality can be changed to such a degree?
Why do you think Hades is a little... crazy?
Hestia thought of the rest of the brothers and sisters, especially Zeus, the annoying brother who would do anything for power and lust, and felt that Hades' appearance was normal.
No matter how out of control, it is not as hopeless as Zeus.
Before she left, she couldn't help asking, "All your decisions now are because of the arrow of Cupid. If the power of the arrow disappears one day, are you willing to let Persephone go back to the earth?"
The fire of love will be extinguished sooner or later. After the love disappears, with Hades' power, he will definitely not willingly submit to Persephone's feet.
At that time, he should give up...
Hades's hand did not leave the holy flame, and his face reflected by the fire was terribly calm, and he could not see the appearance of being controlled by the power of Cupid at all.
His arms, dipped in the sacred fire, began to blacken, and the pain that accompanies death strengthens his sanity.
The more you get out of the control of love and desire, the clearer you think, the clearer the answer.
Hestia's body had already started to become thinner. She left the underworld with half a foot, and the answer she thought she couldn't hear suddenly sounded at this moment.
"I won't let her go."
Hades' voice was so calm that there was no ups and downs, as if he was saying a matter of course.
"She belongs to me, and whether my love for her dies or not, she will stay here forever."
Hestia was a little surprised by his determination and persistence, and she looked keenly into the further future.
"Now Zeus will agree with Persephone to stay by your side in order to exterminate mankind, but in the future he will successfully create a new batch of humans, and he will definitely ask you for Persephone. Are you planning to make him an enemy?"
No matter how bad Zeus' character is, he is still the strongest king among them.Even if Hades faced him, he might not have a chance of winning.
Hades raised his head, his eyes passed through the thick body of the earth, shuttled through the sea and clouds, and finally searched for the peak of Ida with many springs.
Sitting on the top of the mountain, Zeus, who rested his cheeks with one hand, rolled his eyes and looked at Hades' dark eyes.
The king of the gods raised the corners of his mouth slightly at him, showing a clear smile.
He has seen the sacred fire lit by Hades, but he does not stop it.
Demeter, who didn't know anything, was lying on his knees, telling her grief after leaving Persephone with a sad expression.
"Zeus, all the seeds have been taken away by Hades and hidden in the underground world. If this continues, Persephone and the seeds will be corrupt. You tear off the guardian of Erebus for me and open the gate of Hades. I will confront Hades , let him return Persephone."
Zeus rubbed his face with his hands in boredom, and stroked his beautiful and smooth beard by the way, before comforting Demeter who was anxious to get angry.
"Without the consent of Hades, I am disrespecting him by crossing his territory without authorization. The rule of the underground belongs to Pluto. I can only agree with you. The power of the earth and the sky will begin to strictly prevent the appearance of Hades, and he will be killed. Blocked in the underground world, no longer have the qualifications to walk through our territory."
When he said this, Zeus looked at Hades, as if warning and reminding him.
If you want to hide the god you love, you must never let her have a chance to escape the dark border, otherwise all the powers on the earth will do their best to stop his pursuit.
Zeus prevented the gods from looking for Persephone, but at the same time did not allow Hades to go to the earth. This kind of game of balancing the two parties was a game he was used to.
Hades withdrew his eyes indifferently, holding the fire of faith in his hand.The flowers bloomed in his hair, and then spread to his browbones, bridge of nose, and chin.
The colorful petals covered his face, but they couldn't bring out any warm texture. Instead, in the shadow of the gap between the flowers and leaves, his expression was made more fierce and cold.
"Gods are not within the scope of death's harvest, but it doesn't mean that I really can't bring you the disaster of death. All gods, including Zeus, can't take away any treasures that I don't want to give from Hades, especially..."
His quivering lips made a possessive announcement.
"my God."
As soon as the words fell, Hestia's body was torn apart by the black mist. The unsuspecting goddess was seriously injured by this sudden attack and had to shrink back for a long time to recuperate.
Even if Hestia hadn't shown obvious hostility and wariness towards him just now, Hades, who had confirmed that the other party was the enemy, had no scruples in how to eradicate her.
He also immediately listed the names of other gods who are close to human beings in his mind, Hermes, Athena, Apollo, Hephaestus... They are all guys that need to be guarded against.
Hades withdrew his hand from the fire, his pupils reflected the color of the fire, and the statue of Persephone sitting quietly on the ebony chair in front of the altar.
He stepped forward, restrained his strong desire to attack and half knelt down.He doesn't need Persephone to bring him strength and good luck, all he needs is—
Hades quietly pressed his face against the idol's thigh, his long eyelashes half covering his eyes.
"Stay with me."
The voice was so soft that it could not be heard by the small white crown flowers blooming around his mouth.
Persephone, who was holding a pile of materials describing love, suddenly looked up and found no one around.She rubbed the acupoints on her sore eyes, she must have been so tired that she had auditory hallucinations.
Why did I suddenly hear something.
She leaned against clay tablets and parchment, holding the story of Aphrodite.There is no way, the result of analyzing the data of the bear boy Eros is of no reference value except to kill him.
She had no choice but to find his power successor, Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty, to study how to remove the influence of love power.
"Free and unrestrained combination is a respect for her..."
Persephone was speechless for a while. Although the pursuit of true love is indeed free, it is too eye-catching to marry anywhere. I respect God, but I don't respect other people's eyes.
Forget it, the next clay tablet.
"You can still restore your virginity after intercourse, and then go to find your next lover..." Persephone was silent again. God still has this function. Is it necessary to be so introverted in order to gain believers?
Persephone looked at the area where God's materials were placed, and he couldn't see the end at a glance.
If you don’t roll it, you can’t even put the introduction clay tablet with the name on it outside, and it can only be pressed in the corner where the sun is not visible.
There are too many gods in this place.
Persephone continued to search for the next file, and she was chased by the Grim Reaper from breakfast to lunch.After eating, I realized that I skipped the class of making clothes, so I had to go to the loom to watch the teacher repeat the same gesture for the umpteenth time, trying to teach her how the thread turned into cloth.
The teaching is perfect, there is nothing wrong with it except that she can't learn it.
After dinner is her study time, she is all used to find solutions.She also specially took notes to summarize and analyze the gods here's various thoughts on love.
"Love is the greatest power that can conquer immortal gods and short-lived humans."
Persephone wrote it down while chanting, and she found that the various clay tablets that recorded Aphrodite, whether they were ancient legends or recent deeds, were constantly emphasizing the awesomeness of the power of love.
For example, love can also conquer all kinds of violent battles. If the leaders of two hostile countries fall in love with each other, they will not fight.
I always feel that there is something wrong with this example, so I turned it over.
Love can conquer violence, so that humans and gods can live happily ever after in peace, respect and love each other, we are all one family.
Well, this is the correct paradigm.
"Love is beauty, and beauty can make the wisest men bow their heads to you..."
After reading too many materials about the God of Beauty, I was almost brainwashed.If this is the brainwashing package released by the God of Beauty to attract believers, it can only be said that this thing is really effective.
Compared with the various materials of Eros, the god of love, Aphrodite is a super master at writing self-promotional copy.
Persephone put down her pen and began to play with the flowers in her hair. Before going to bed, some flowers began to wither, and it was easier to wash her hair by pulling more.
Through this method, she finally got rid of the urge to immediately become a follower of the God of Beauty.When my mind was hot just now, I really had all kinds of bad ideas that everything is good if there is love, and nothing is good without love.
Persephone plucked the flower, plucked it, and became stunned.
I don't know what Hades was doing, I haven't seen him all day, I kind of want to see him.
The feeling of missing was a little strange, and Persephone half-buried her blushing face in her hands uncomfortably, and couldn't help being in a daze for a while before diverting her thoughts.
Will he catch a cold if he sleeps in the corridor all the time, and should he go back to bed to sleep.It's a pity that he is a god and won't catch a cold. This excuse is too obvious.
Persephone picked a flower with a lot of petals, started to tear the petals, and muttered to cover up: "If I let him go to bed, my intention will not be seen, yes, no, yes..."
In the end, there was only one petal left, and after a long time, Persephone changed his words, "No."
So she could put Hades to bed tonight, and then she could touch his hand surreptitiously.Just touch it and nothing else.
In fact, she has seen a lot of clay tablets and papyrus of love, and she still agrees with some words.For example, love makes people lower their standards, become more impulsive, and very much hope to do something for the person they like.
Persephone packed back the messy clay tablets one by one, and received half of them. She held the clay tablet whose beauty could make people bow their heads again, looked at it several times, and found out about her secret love that was darkened by the sun. One to one correspondence.
Why had she never thought of an obvious thing?
When you love someone, it's actually easy to compromise with that person, and you can't even help being nice to him.
Disgust makes the arrow of love disappear, but love makes the arrow obedient.
Persephone shuddered at the thought of this, and immediately pushed the clay tablet back into the bookcase, her face turning pale.It is especially uncomfortable to realize that Hades will obey the object of his love without a bottom line because of the arrow of Cupid.
Back when she didn't like him, she resisted Hades' forced self-sacrifice.When she likes him, it is even more unbearable for him to be harmed, manipulated and used by external forces.
Even if the object is herself, it won't work.
Persephone clenched her fists, wishing she could take out Eros' clay tablet and hammer it to pieces.In the end, I suppressed this impulse... The quality is so good that I can't break it at all, and I can't get rid of the mud after stepping on it for a long time.
Finally, she spread her hands and looked at the crushed flower stalks lying in her palms, her eyes gradually became firmer.
Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Instead of forcing Hades to indulge her thousands of times in the future, it is better to let him obey her once and pull out the arrow directly.
"Beauty can make the wise bow down." She whispered to herself.
The meaning of this sentence is that she moved closer to Hades, hooked his fingers and shouted, "Baby, will you give it to me?"As soon as he said yes, she immediately asked him to draw the arrow.
This plan is simple, but it is the most likely to be realized.
But what kind of dress here is in line with the beauty in the eyes of God?
Persephone overturned the various beauty standards promoted by the God of Beauty. First of all, you must have a healthy body, and you must not lose your body proportions or muscle lines.
She touched her abdomen silently. Although she was exercising, it must take a long time for the abdominal muscles to have obvious lines.
And the height...
Persephone couldn't bear to stand on tiptoe, and immediately gave up the idea of fake, admitting that unless he traveled again, the physiological miracle of secondary growth would be harder to achieve than abdominal muscles.
At the first level of beauty, she got stuck.
But these are brochures of the Goddess of Beauty, and there are always exaggerations. She should ask the gods around her what conditions they think a beautiful goddess has.
The god of death who is counting the number of Ceres elves, "Which goddess is more beautiful?"
Persephone held a hard pen and paper, looked at him expectantly and nodded.The Grim Reaper has high vision at first glance, with such a poisonous mouth and a sick personality, he must be picky.
The god of death stared at her strangely, and then slowly said: "Bloodthirsty, able to reap human lives, strong and muscular, black hair, blue face, preferably with good teeth, able to gnaw bones and dispose of dead bodies."
The gods above the earth have completely fallen into the underworld, killing people without planting wheat, they must be very strong after a long time, and their faces will turn pale to blue when they don't see the sun...
Just as the Grim Reaper was thinking about the future freely, Persephone had already walked away with a gloomy expression on his face.
Minos: "Beautiful goddess?"
Persephone looked at him expectantly, "It doesn't matter if it's not a goddess, a beautiful woman." After all, the judge has been a judge before, and now he has a priesthood, so the reference must be more practical.
The judge fell into a sluggish memory, and the other two judges also came over, gathered around Minos and began to join the sluggish set meal.
Persephone smiled habitually—doubtful—followed blankly.
After a long time, she left the three dementia judges silently holding a blank note.At first glance, these people have been working for too long, and they are bald and their brains are not working well at the same time.
When each of their gods heard the question, their faces showed the blankness of hearing unfamiliar words, as if they had never seen a "goddess" in eight lifetimes, let alone "beautiful".
After she took a few steps away, there was chattering gossip under the big tree at the entrance of the village behind her.
"Lying on the official clay board like a dog all year round, I have already forgotten what is beautiful." Aiacus sighed.
"Why do you suddenly ask the beautiful goddess, is she trying to capture Hades' lover like Hera?" the judge with the longest name whispered.
Minos immediately cheered up and retorted loudly, "Hades doesn't want a goddess. Every time he goes to the earth, let alone the most beautiful goddess, even the green-skinned forest nymphs will run away screaming. Except for a certain The beautiful young girl who came to Hades recently as a guest is kind enough to see him, no goddess, absolutely no other goddess is willing to approach him."
Finally, Persephone couldn't bear it anymore and turned around and shouted, "Don't say that Hades is like a plague, he is not as disgusting as you say."
Among other things, Hades' appearance can be regarded as a sign of Hades.If you really want to publicize and recruit believers, since the place where the Hades live is too dark, any long god can do it.
The judges, who were frightened by her calf-protecting attitude, immediately returned to seriousness, and each looked at a broken clay tablet, pretending that they hadn't said anything.
Persephone also reacted, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she ran away from the death scene with oil on the soles of her feet.
After running to the corner of the wall, she put her head against the crocuses on the mural, wishing she could smash a wall to eliminate her embarrassment. Did all these gods see that she had a different attitude towards Hades?
Could it be that her face couldn't hide things like that?Or does she automatically switch to the "saliva" emoticon whenever she sees Hades?
Just when Persefin's expression became distorted and he was gnashing his teeth, something brushed by his ear.She thought it was a new flower blooming, but in a blink of an eye, she saw a bird jumping down from the mural, lightly landing on her ears of wheat and rubbing against her hair.
She finally remembered something and looked up.
Seeing many colorful mural figures hidden in rows among the mural flowers, they were all staring at her stupidly.
This is when She died on the floor plan. Persephone picked up the papyrus to cover her face, and was about to quickly back away and disappear from here when all the attendants and wine boys on the wall ran down and touched her paper with their fingers.
Persephone felt that there were a lot of words on the paper, and when she turned it over, she saw their comments on beauty, "You look the best", "Beauty belongs to you", "You are the only goddess", and blah blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. flying.
Persephone has not forgotten that these were drawn by Hades. To some extent, they are similar to the life derived from the divine power of Hades, and they will also inherit the preferences of the original owner.
Hades' liking will affect their feelings for her.The people they think are beautiful are also thoughts extended from Hades' own consciousness.
Love is beauty, Persephone realized again the weight of this statement.
Perhaps in the eyes of Hades, who admires her, she is indeed beautiful without any external attire.
Persephone looked down at her feet for a long while before suppressing the corners of her mouth that were desperately raised.
Although I know that Hades' eyes are not working after being poisoned, it's okay to be secretly happy for a while, anyway, no one knows.
By sacrificial ritual, the olive wood was offered to Hades of Persephone, who was beginning to cut the wood for the bed.He noticed a joy that was close to being drunk rising from his heart, and he couldn't help but smile with the corners of his mouth.
Why are you so happy all of a sudden?
Encouraged by Persephone's emotions, he cut wood faster and more diligently.
Hades just wanted to make her happier, so he made all the forces obey her, serve her, protect her, and make her always have a good mood.
The power of this desire from the underworld itself is too pure, like a hot wind blowing through every corner of the palace, and also blowing away the old grayness on many murals, and more wine boys, waiters and priests jumped out of the paintings.
Holding flower crowns, amphora and all kinds of lovable objects, they gathered together with friends and companions, and rushed to the girl who was lovable to God.
The souls of the dead who had transformed into entities also woke up from the towering pillars, the ground, and the walls, and sang and danced.
They were the slaves who were responsible for the bottom work of Hades Palace when Hades first took control of Hades.Later, there were too many dead souls in the underworld, and they couldn't bear the crying and screaming day and night, so they were forced to sleep.
Persephone didn't even react, and was surrounded by a lively and bright river of people and ran out.She seemed to be immersed in a dreamland of rich colors, and all she could see were joy and flowers.
What's going on here?
She followed them in a daze, only to realize later that the group seemed to want to play with her.
The music played by the undead playing the reed flute and the harp was so light that they flew up, and the dancing skirts of the waiters and girls curled up beautifully.
Persephone stood among them. Although she couldn't sing or dance, she was infected and couldn't help stepping on the chaotic beat with her feet.
The pressure of studying for many days and the anxiety of not being able to find a way to draw the arrow were also swept away by the grand and dazzling party in front of them.
Persephone's flowers fell from her hair, and Aile's temperament reappeared. She smiled and applauded them.
This event made all the underworld gods turn their heads to look at it. Living in the dark and damp underground for a long time, I don’t know how many years I haven’t seen such a gorgeous scene.
The god of death also turned to look over, and even Ceres, the god of violent death lying on his shoulder, became quiet and gentle.
Several judges hooked their shoulders and sighed, "This is beauty."
Persephone asked them what goddesses they thought were beautiful, the underworld was occupied by the divine power of death and old age, so how could there be any beautiful gods.
Even if there are, they have only recently come to Hades.
Minos also took a special look at the god of death, "Tanadus, you say so."
The god of death glanced at him coldly, but did not leave, but continued to stand aside and watch.
The flowers are too prosperous, and the flames are too hot, so they dare not get too close, but this is indeed a very beautiful, very beautiful goddess.
The only record is that she insisted on not posting back. No matter how long the other party posted, she firmly resisted the temptation of inhumanity, and did not grab the other party to gnaw.
So Hades must have not seen her wavering, let alone the "unreasonable thoughts" in her head... No, what if God can read minds?
Why is Hades often like a roundworm in her stomach, guessing her mind so accurately?
This horrible guess made Persephone explode with embarrassment. As far as her head is full of unspeakable thoughts, if she really wants to be read, this earth cannot stay.
She'd have to rocket herself up immediately and go straight to space bum.
Because of this unrecognizable imagination, she swung the sword in her hand more quickly, trying to kill this mind-reading guess.
The Grim Reaper glanced at her and commented: "The fighting spirit is good, but the strength is not enough." But is the expression a little grim?
Persephone was already very familiar with the posture of holding the sword. She practiced and practiced, and suddenly turned to face the direction of Death, and slashed forward neatly, without touching any of his clothes.
After easily avoiding her, Thanadus was about to draw out his long sword to throw her weapon away and chop off a few flowers on her head, but he saw Persephone bowing his head and muttering to himself again.
She has been distracted and doesn't know what to think.
Thanadus is curious about her, and this desire to explore is rare for Death.In order to hear her words clearly, he bent down and leaned in front of her.
But she saw her fierce eyes, like a rabbit baring its teeth, showing her fierce side as if her hair was about to stand on end.
She muttered to the tip of her teeth, saying words that made the God of Death puzzled, "Could it really be seen, really seen?"
What do you see?All he could see was that Persephone was going to change from an irritable rabbit to a rolling round hedgehog, both useless and capable of jumping.
But Persephone suddenly looked up, and Chi asked him, "Can your gods read minds?"
Reaper shook his head honestly, at least he couldn't see her heart clearly.
Persephone relaxed, and happily reached out and patted his arm, "That's right, if you could read minds, you wouldn't behave like this."
After she finished speaking, she suddenly moved her fingers up Death's bare arm, and her fingertips touched the pin on his shoulder. When she grabbed it hard, the soft linen was wrapped in her palm.
"Look, I touched your clothes."
Thanadus could have dissipated into dust in an instant, preventing her fingers from landing.But when her hand touched his skin, all movements froze, and something violent exploded on the arm, like Zeus's lightning strike paralyzed his body and mind.
Even when Persephone grabbed her clothes, he could only stare blankly at her complacent appearance without any reaction.
Persephone originally wanted to sneer at him, after all, when this guy was chasing after her flowers with a sword, his mouth was poisoned, and his mouth was full of sarcasm, which often made her jump up in anger.
In the end, this cheap teacher just looked at her, maintaining the posture of being grabbed by her, a kind of thin flame ignited in his disturbingly dark eyes, faintly revealing the excitement that was about to move.This made his face, which had been dead and gloomy for many years, burst out with a sense of vividness similar to being alive,
Persefine didn't realize his danger, but felt that the other party was humiliated by her unscrupulous sneak attack, so she glared at her so hard.
She did win disgracefully, but she didn't have any psychological burden.After loosening the other party's clothes with his fingers, he explained: "You taught me to use any means."
The Grim Reaper didn't speak, but slowly backed away, and the whole person seemed to sink into the shadows again.The black wings fluttered uncontrollably, and all the lights shook uncomfortably, ready to go out at any moment.
When Death extinguishes all light, darkness becomes his slaughterhouse, and hunting becomes his instinct.
Seeing him, Persephone still had a strange expression. Could it be that she couldn't bear it so much after being won by her? God's heart is so glassy?
After all, Hades's most loyal subordinate, Persephone was afraid that he would go on strike and refrain from working, which would increase Hades' burden, so she could only pull two worthless flowers on her head tiredly, and gave them to the god of death as an apology.
"Just pretend I didn't meet you, sorry for making you uncomfortable."
So work hard, reduce the workload for Hades, and let your boss take more rest time.
Persephone felt that she was really working hard, who made the employees of Hades either be ugly old fritters (judges) or just disappear (those Furies never come to work).
As far as Reaper is concerned, he cannot be allowed to slow down because of his damaged self-esteem.
The Grim Reaper looked at the flowers she handed over, and stopped flapping his wings. All the emotions that were exposed were withdrawn in an instant, and the dangerous atmosphere also melted in front of her. He became a stone sculpture that could only teach her how to use a sword.
Just when Persephone thought that the god of death was going to be silent for a long time, and her legs were starting to feel sore and she wanted to find an excuse to leave, the flowers in her hand suddenly disappeared.
The flower did not know when it appeared on the handle of Death God's sword and turned into a decorative pattern. He stroked the pattern before saying, "You did a good job."
Persephone immediately showed a happy smile, and before she could celebrate the completion of her homework, the Grim Reaper standing in front of her had already raised his head faintly, and his body as stiff as a puppet also moved accordingly.
He pointed his sword at Persephone's face, "Then the next teaching can be stricter."
Strict, wasn't it strict enough before?
Then Persephone saw this inhuman bastard, and chased her down ten corridors with murderous aura and coercion.She is so familiar with the complicated road conditions of the palace of the underworld, and it is definitely due to the god of death.
He not only shaved, but also released terrifying things like undead skeletons, holding her tightly.
Persephone's face was really blue now, when several skeleton hands were resting on her shoulders, and a bunch of undead were blowing air on her back and sneering, she just wanted to call for help.
She knew that she would miss college life occasionally after graduation, but she didn't expect this scene when she really started to miss it.
That bright classroom with lovely and lovely classmates is 100 million times stronger than her present class in the underworld, accompanied by ghost movie BGM loudspeakers, and the teacher is sick.
Can't think about it deeply, just thinking about it will bring tears to my eyes, full of bad feelings.
Just when the god of death chased Persephone like a dog, Hades pulled his hand out of the sacrificial fire uncontrollably.Pluto, who sensed her emotions, became half-illusory, and wanted to rush to her side immediately to get rid of all the unpleasant things.
This irresistible impulse was quickly suppressed by Hades, and his body returned to its original state.
And behind him, the fire that had just been lit blazed up, and the golden flames transformed into a vague female face.
"Hades, my noble and brave brother, what you call me to light is the sacred fire that is dedicated to the Lord God, which will never be extinguished. It is because of the arrow of the god of love that you completely lost your mind and did such a self-descending thing ?"
Hades didn't look back, his eyes quietly looked in the direction of Persephone.It is not an easy task to hand over the teaching of increasing Persephone's power to the god of death.
Even if the Grim Reaper couldn't hurt Persephone and could only scare her with the simplest language, this was something he couldn't do.
Now facing Persephone, he is already as weak as a baby, unable to utter a single word in a heavy tone, and his chest is full of infinite attachment to her and the hidden desire to reproduce.
Not to mention that in order to train Persephone's foot strength, he had to put on a fierce face and chase her with a sword.
On the short altar behind him, a mellow and deep female voice continued to advise him not to make such impulsive and reckless decisions.
"You are different from Demeter. Most of her power comes from the seed god. You have now become the ruler of the underworld by your own strength, and you don't need to use such a precious and pious heart to surrender and love other gods."
The flames burned higher and higher, with scattered smoke, forming a female body shaped by fire. In the burning temperature, a holy face began to become clear.
With her eyes closed, she held an oil-filled pottery lamp commonly used in human families with both hands, and a cluster of divine soul golden flames burned quietly on the lamp.
Hades's black hair had a bewitching reddish color in the hot and twisted air. The goddess behind her lowered her neck, and her head full of flames approached his ear and whispered a warning.
"The gods of Olympus don't like you taking away the seed gods. Human beings will die in large numbers because of the lack of crops. Except for the gods who are responsible for nature, all gods rely on human beliefs to exist. Without people, there are no gods The presence."
Hades was indifferent, and took two steps forward, avoiding his sister's approach before turning to look at her.
"Hestia, I asked you to light the holy fire, not to be a lobbyist for the Olympian gods."
Hestia lowered her head, and the fire was burning in her eye sockets, but they were too empty to see any enthusiasm.She put a finger on the oil lamp, and a small cluster of golden flames licked her nails.
"When you light the holy fire, it is tantamount to telling all the gods that you will worship Persephone, and that you will be an enemy of the entire Olympus."
Hades' attention was finally drawn back. He was half-responsive with another person's emotions in his heart. When he really understood Hestia's words, all the soft fluctuations in his eyes because of love disappeared completely, and even Facing his sister's expression became extremely gloomy.
"You think I'm afraid of you?"
Just as Hestia was about to speak, she saw Hades spread her hand, and her burning body stood impressively in the palm.As long as he grabbed her hard, more than half of her bones would be shattered immediately.
Hades said to her without mercy: "Your duty is to be responsible for lighting the fire, not to imitate Hermes' sly mouth and act as a messenger that is not suitable for you."
Hestia was completely silent, and after a while she sighed, "I just don't want you to get involved in this battle. Back then Zeus used the power of Eris to throw a golden apple and pulled a lot of capable young people Entering the eastern battlefield will also cause the gods to divide and fight because of this war."
These years, Zeus sat on the neutral golden throne, mediating all the disputes of the gods like a father, took the opportunity to tear apart the originally amiable goddess power, and eliminated the faith by slaughtering human beings, and took back some of the power of the gods.
"Originally, we just thought that it would be enough for him to take away part of the power of the gods through war, but when you took Persephone away from Demeter's arms, Zeus did not agree to use his royal power to persuade you to take Persephone away. Serphine returns to the earth."
This is abnormal, Zeus is not only a natural theocracy, but his greatest power comes from human belief.If Persephone does not belong to Olympus, it will actually reduce his rights and responsibilities.
Hestia's face became sad, with tears streaming from the corners of his eyes, "The war did not satisfy his ambitions. We guess that Zeus wanted to create a new era by exterminating most of the existing human beings through drought and famine."
As a goddess who is close to human beings and holds a lot of power of human belief, when she spoke about this possible conspiracy to destroy the world, her voice trembled with pain and compassion.
"Zeus has the natural authority to control the thunderstorm in the sky. He will not fall asleep because all the human beings are dead now. He is full of force and violent. Even if the human beings on the earth die and temporarily lose the power of faith generated by human priesthood, he is enough to defeat all A god who weakens with him."
A large number of existing human beings have their own gods. Although Zeus is the most powerful person among the gods, he is not unique and irreplaceable.
It is not impossible to slaughter all these believers belonging to other gods, and then use their own divine power items to create new humans, so that they only have one god in their eyes.
When Athena told them this conjecture, all the gods who were close to humans were unwilling to realize Zeus' conspiracy, and the years of fighting made them extremely yearn for peace.
"Hades, please restrain this love that is of no benefit to you, open the closed door of the dark tomb, and return the vitality that belongs to human beings to the earth."
Hestia stretched out her palm sprinkled with sparks, trying to hold Hades' face. Her voice full of hope and face streaming with tears of fire intertwined a strange sense of sacredness.
Once again, Hades stepped back two and a half steps skillfully, avoiding her hand perfectly, but did not expect a few sparks to touch his white face.Although there were no traces left, he still lowered his eyes lightly, and brushed his fingers displeasedly across his cheeks.
Then, he raised his eyes coldly, showing a malicious smile, "The death of human beings, the fall of gods sounds like an unpleasant tragedy."
Hestia's outstretched hand froze, and she looked at Hades puzzled. She hadn't seen such a rich expression on his face for many years, and she felt uncomfortable for a while.
Hades maintained that mocking smile, closed his hands easily, and then clasped his fingers tightly, and the sound of bone cracking and flesh shattering came from the palm of his hand.
Hestia immediately bent down, forming a muddy mass, followed by screams of pain.
Hades crushed her lofty posture, looked down at the Kitchen Vulcan who had to shrink into a small ball due to serious injuries, and then spread his hands casually and said to her: "Yes, human beings will lose their vitality and crop seeds and die. You group of gods parasitic on humans will also be buried in pottery urns by Zeus, but..."
He let out a naive and cruel sigh of doubt, "So what? All I want is for Persephone to stay in Hades. Your rise and fall has nothing to do with me, and it doesn't matter if Zeus drives you all to extinction."
The prosperous land, the bright Olympus, the gods who sing beautiful songs, all have nothing to do with the underground kingdom where death is the main body.
At most, there were more dead creatures, the lamentations were a bit louder, and their official duties were just a little bit busy.
Hestia looked up slowly, hearing his purely vicious words, unable to refute for a while.
She remembered that Hades was not a kind god before his emotions were eroded by the underworld. Instead, he appeared extremely dark and crazy because of the pollution of his divine power.
This is also the reason why the theocracy of the underworld chose him so easily.
Hades seemed to be tired of changing his expression, and suddenly returned to that emotionless masked face, only his voice could still hear impatience.
"Whether you light the holy flame or not, I'm already worshiping Persephone. You are just an announcement."
Once Hestia's holy fire was lit, all the gods in the sky, the earth and the earth could see it. That's why he invited her to come, but he didn't expect that the taciturn goddess could become so noisy.
Just snatch a small part of her strength, and let him light the fire himself.
Hestia swallowed back her lament, and the flame quickly reshaped her body. Amid the crackling sound, she gathered her passionate side again, intending to seduce him with benefits.
"Too many human beings have died, and you will also be affected. The country you rule cannot accommodate so many dead souls, and their wailing and resentment will once again pollute and erode your sanity. You will be tied tightly to the throne by the souls, and eventually become a Tartarus has no emotion, no wisdom, no love."
This kind of existence almost irreversibly becomes something inanimate, not even a god, but a symbolic existence.
Hestia pointed at him. Standing on the land of Hades did not make her fearful, but instead made her even more unwilling to admit defeat.
"Hades, you who have become that kind of existence can't hold anything."
Hades didn't expect that one day, Hestia, who never got involved with these gods, would poke his weakness so sharply.He tensed his face in displeasure, moved his fingers, and began to make black iron tools that could split the power of the furnace.
Seeing his blatant robber action, Hestia had no choice but to soften up, "I'm really not good at persuading any gods, but this time you stand beside Zeus, and I don't want to see you as our enemy."
Just like the beginning of the Trojan War, the gods became two factions facing each other.The fact that Persephone did not return the land was a more serious disaster than Troy, and a large number of gods also began to protect their own interests.
The gods who are close to humans will try their best to bring Persephone back to the earth, and Demeter is the most urgent.
Has another purpose, will be vague, delaying the return of Persephone, such as Zeus and Hades.
Before Hades took away a finger, Hestia melted thorns and dipped the purest flames from the oil lamp, and she placed the flames on the altar for the gods.
Even if she is temporarily an enemy, she is not willing to live forever with her brother. After all, God's time is too long, and it is normal to separate and reunite temporarily.
"If you insist on making such irrational and chaotic decisions that have been roasted by love, I can only believe that you have the power to solve all the mistakes that will arise in the future."
Originally wanted to tell him another conspiracy, it was a lie that Hera and Athena conspired to draw the arrow for him.
Hades has lived underground for a long time, and the cries of wraiths are in his ears all the year round. He doesn't know much about various things in Olympos, and he doesn't even know that the arrow he was shot cannot be pulled out.
It's a pity that kind persuasion is useless, and Hestia can only hide this fact.
Hades even gave up the position of the main god to Persephone, waiting for him to extinguish the flame of love does not know how many years, human beings can't wait that long.
They can only look forward to Hades' occasional return of sanity, thinking that they need to pull out the arrow and return to the earth with Persephone, so that they can have the hope of snatching back the Seed God.
Hestia turned all kinds of thoughts in his head, finally calmed down, stretched out his huge palm, covered the flames on the altar, and began to bestow pure blessings.
She looked at Hades and chanted calmly: "There are stoves, altars, and fires, and you can see the light of worshiping the gods. Belief in 'her' will bring you strength and good luck. May 'her' be with you."
All of Hades' small movements of guard disappeared in this chanting. He clasped his hands together, and his fingers began to be entwined with the power of blessing that Persephone gave him.
The flowers bloomed on his fingers, purifying all ominous breaths.
When the sacred fire was lit, Hestia stepped down from the altar, leaving behind an unquenchable golden flame.
Hades walked up to the altar, put his hands in the fire, the hot golden flames burned his skin, and murmured the prayers for the offering.
The golden flame looked weak and petite in front of his tall and powerful body.
Although Hades tried his best to turn himself into a qualified believer, he didn't have the temperament of being submissive to God.Although his movements are as gentle as possible, it still makes people feel that he is much more powerful and terrifying than his main god.
It was the first time for Hestia to see such an uncoordinated and inappropriate master-slave god.
After she finished lighting the fire, she was supposed to leave in silence, but when she saw him bowing his head and kissing the holy fire lit for Persephone, her brows jumped a few times.
Can the power of the Arrow of Eros be so strong that a god's personality can be changed to such a degree?
Why do you think Hades is a little... crazy?
Hestia thought of the rest of the brothers and sisters, especially Zeus, the annoying brother who would do anything for power and lust, and felt that Hades' appearance was normal.
No matter how out of control, it is not as hopeless as Zeus.
Before she left, she couldn't help asking, "All your decisions now are because of the arrow of Cupid. If the power of the arrow disappears one day, are you willing to let Persephone go back to the earth?"
The fire of love will be extinguished sooner or later. After the love disappears, with Hades' power, he will definitely not willingly submit to Persephone's feet.
At that time, he should give up...
Hades's hand did not leave the holy flame, and his face reflected by the fire was terribly calm, and he could not see the appearance of being controlled by the power of Cupid at all.
His arms, dipped in the sacred fire, began to blacken, and the pain that accompanies death strengthens his sanity.
The more you get out of the control of love and desire, the clearer you think, the clearer the answer.
Hestia's body had already started to become thinner. She left the underworld with half a foot, and the answer she thought she couldn't hear suddenly sounded at this moment.
"I won't let her go."
Hades' voice was so calm that there was no ups and downs, as if he was saying a matter of course.
"She belongs to me, and whether my love for her dies or not, she will stay here forever."
Hestia was a little surprised by his determination and persistence, and she looked keenly into the further future.
"Now Zeus will agree with Persephone to stay by your side in order to exterminate mankind, but in the future he will successfully create a new batch of humans, and he will definitely ask you for Persephone. Are you planning to make him an enemy?"
No matter how bad Zeus' character is, he is still the strongest king among them.Even if Hades faced him, he might not have a chance of winning.
Hades raised his head, his eyes passed through the thick body of the earth, shuttled through the sea and clouds, and finally searched for the peak of Ida with many springs.
Sitting on the top of the mountain, Zeus, who rested his cheeks with one hand, rolled his eyes and looked at Hades' dark eyes.
The king of the gods raised the corners of his mouth slightly at him, showing a clear smile.
He has seen the sacred fire lit by Hades, but he does not stop it.
Demeter, who didn't know anything, was lying on his knees, telling her grief after leaving Persephone with a sad expression.
"Zeus, all the seeds have been taken away by Hades and hidden in the underground world. If this continues, Persephone and the seeds will be corrupt. You tear off the guardian of Erebus for me and open the gate of Hades. I will confront Hades , let him return Persephone."
Zeus rubbed his face with his hands in boredom, and stroked his beautiful and smooth beard by the way, before comforting Demeter who was anxious to get angry.
"Without the consent of Hades, I am disrespecting him by crossing his territory without authorization. The rule of the underground belongs to Pluto. I can only agree with you. The power of the earth and the sky will begin to strictly prevent the appearance of Hades, and he will be killed. Blocked in the underground world, no longer have the qualifications to walk through our territory."
When he said this, Zeus looked at Hades, as if warning and reminding him.
If you want to hide the god you love, you must never let her have a chance to escape the dark border, otherwise all the powers on the earth will do their best to stop his pursuit.
Zeus prevented the gods from looking for Persephone, but at the same time did not allow Hades to go to the earth. This kind of game of balancing the two parties was a game he was used to.
Hades withdrew his eyes indifferently, holding the fire of faith in his hand.The flowers bloomed in his hair, and then spread to his browbones, bridge of nose, and chin.
The colorful petals covered his face, but they couldn't bring out any warm texture. Instead, in the shadow of the gap between the flowers and leaves, his expression was made more fierce and cold.
"Gods are not within the scope of death's harvest, but it doesn't mean that I really can't bring you the disaster of death. All gods, including Zeus, can't take away any treasures that I don't want to give from Hades, especially..."
His quivering lips made a possessive announcement.
"my God."
As soon as the words fell, Hestia's body was torn apart by the black mist. The unsuspecting goddess was seriously injured by this sudden attack and had to shrink back for a long time to recuperate.
Even if Hestia hadn't shown obvious hostility and wariness towards him just now, Hades, who had confirmed that the other party was the enemy, had no scruples in how to eradicate her.
He also immediately listed the names of other gods who are close to human beings in his mind, Hermes, Athena, Apollo, Hephaestus... They are all guys that need to be guarded against.
Hades withdrew his hand from the fire, his pupils reflected the color of the fire, and the statue of Persephone sitting quietly on the ebony chair in front of the altar.
He stepped forward, restrained his strong desire to attack and half knelt down.He doesn't need Persephone to bring him strength and good luck, all he needs is—
Hades quietly pressed his face against the idol's thigh, his long eyelashes half covering his eyes.
"Stay with me."
The voice was so soft that it could not be heard by the small white crown flowers blooming around his mouth.
Persephone, who was holding a pile of materials describing love, suddenly looked up and found no one around.She rubbed the acupoints on her sore eyes, she must have been so tired that she had auditory hallucinations.
Why did I suddenly hear something.
She leaned against clay tablets and parchment, holding the story of Aphrodite.There is no way, the result of analyzing the data of the bear boy Eros is of no reference value except to kill him.
She had no choice but to find his power successor, Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty, to study how to remove the influence of love power.
"Free and unrestrained combination is a respect for her..."
Persephone was speechless for a while. Although the pursuit of true love is indeed free, it is too eye-catching to marry anywhere. I respect God, but I don't respect other people's eyes.
Forget it, the next clay tablet.
"You can still restore your virginity after intercourse, and then go to find your next lover..." Persephone was silent again. God still has this function. Is it necessary to be so introverted in order to gain believers?
Persephone looked at the area where God's materials were placed, and he couldn't see the end at a glance.
If you don’t roll it, you can’t even put the introduction clay tablet with the name on it outside, and it can only be pressed in the corner where the sun is not visible.
There are too many gods in this place.
Persephone continued to search for the next file, and she was chased by the Grim Reaper from breakfast to lunch.After eating, I realized that I skipped the class of making clothes, so I had to go to the loom to watch the teacher repeat the same gesture for the umpteenth time, trying to teach her how the thread turned into cloth.
The teaching is perfect, there is nothing wrong with it except that she can't learn it.
After dinner is her study time, she is all used to find solutions.She also specially took notes to summarize and analyze the gods here's various thoughts on love.
"Love is the greatest power that can conquer immortal gods and short-lived humans."
Persephone wrote it down while chanting, and she found that the various clay tablets that recorded Aphrodite, whether they were ancient legends or recent deeds, were constantly emphasizing the awesomeness of the power of love.
For example, love can also conquer all kinds of violent battles. If the leaders of two hostile countries fall in love with each other, they will not fight.
I always feel that there is something wrong with this example, so I turned it over.
Love can conquer violence, so that humans and gods can live happily ever after in peace, respect and love each other, we are all one family.
Well, this is the correct paradigm.
"Love is beauty, and beauty can make the wisest men bow their heads to you..."
After reading too many materials about the God of Beauty, I was almost brainwashed.If this is the brainwashing package released by the God of Beauty to attract believers, it can only be said that this thing is really effective.
Compared with the various materials of Eros, the god of love, Aphrodite is a super master at writing self-promotional copy.
Persephone put down her pen and began to play with the flowers in her hair. Before going to bed, some flowers began to wither, and it was easier to wash her hair by pulling more.
Through this method, she finally got rid of the urge to immediately become a follower of the God of Beauty.When my mind was hot just now, I really had all kinds of bad ideas that everything is good if there is love, and nothing is good without love.
Persephone plucked the flower, plucked it, and became stunned.
I don't know what Hades was doing, I haven't seen him all day, I kind of want to see him.
The feeling of missing was a little strange, and Persephone half-buried her blushing face in her hands uncomfortably, and couldn't help being in a daze for a while before diverting her thoughts.
Will he catch a cold if he sleeps in the corridor all the time, and should he go back to bed to sleep.It's a pity that he is a god and won't catch a cold. This excuse is too obvious.
Persephone picked a flower with a lot of petals, started to tear the petals, and muttered to cover up: "If I let him go to bed, my intention will not be seen, yes, no, yes..."
In the end, there was only one petal left, and after a long time, Persephone changed his words, "No."
So she could put Hades to bed tonight, and then she could touch his hand surreptitiously.Just touch it and nothing else.
In fact, she has seen a lot of clay tablets and papyrus of love, and she still agrees with some words.For example, love makes people lower their standards, become more impulsive, and very much hope to do something for the person they like.
Persephone packed back the messy clay tablets one by one, and received half of them. She held the clay tablet whose beauty could make people bow their heads again, looked at it several times, and found out about her secret love that was darkened by the sun. One to one correspondence.
Why had she never thought of an obvious thing?
When you love someone, it's actually easy to compromise with that person, and you can't even help being nice to him.
Disgust makes the arrow of love disappear, but love makes the arrow obedient.
Persephone shuddered at the thought of this, and immediately pushed the clay tablet back into the bookcase, her face turning pale.It is especially uncomfortable to realize that Hades will obey the object of his love without a bottom line because of the arrow of Cupid.
Back when she didn't like him, she resisted Hades' forced self-sacrifice.When she likes him, it is even more unbearable for him to be harmed, manipulated and used by external forces.
Even if the object is herself, it won't work.
Persephone clenched her fists, wishing she could take out Eros' clay tablet and hammer it to pieces.In the end, I suppressed this impulse... The quality is so good that I can't break it at all, and I can't get rid of the mud after stepping on it for a long time.
Finally, she spread her hands and looked at the crushed flower stalks lying in her palms, her eyes gradually became firmer.
Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Instead of forcing Hades to indulge her thousands of times in the future, it is better to let him obey her once and pull out the arrow directly.
"Beauty can make the wise bow down." She whispered to herself.
The meaning of this sentence is that she moved closer to Hades, hooked his fingers and shouted, "Baby, will you give it to me?"As soon as he said yes, she immediately asked him to draw the arrow.
This plan is simple, but it is the most likely to be realized.
But what kind of dress here is in line with the beauty in the eyes of God?
Persephone overturned the various beauty standards promoted by the God of Beauty. First of all, you must have a healthy body, and you must not lose your body proportions or muscle lines.
She touched her abdomen silently. Although she was exercising, it must take a long time for the abdominal muscles to have obvious lines.
And the height...
Persephone couldn't bear to stand on tiptoe, and immediately gave up the idea of fake, admitting that unless he traveled again, the physiological miracle of secondary growth would be harder to achieve than abdominal muscles.
At the first level of beauty, she got stuck.
But these are brochures of the Goddess of Beauty, and there are always exaggerations. She should ask the gods around her what conditions they think a beautiful goddess has.
The god of death who is counting the number of Ceres elves, "Which goddess is more beautiful?"
Persephone held a hard pen and paper, looked at him expectantly and nodded.The Grim Reaper has high vision at first glance, with such a poisonous mouth and a sick personality, he must be picky.
The god of death stared at her strangely, and then slowly said: "Bloodthirsty, able to reap human lives, strong and muscular, black hair, blue face, preferably with good teeth, able to gnaw bones and dispose of dead bodies."
The gods above the earth have completely fallen into the underworld, killing people without planting wheat, they must be very strong after a long time, and their faces will turn pale to blue when they don't see the sun...
Just as the Grim Reaper was thinking about the future freely, Persephone had already walked away with a gloomy expression on his face.
Minos: "Beautiful goddess?"
Persephone looked at him expectantly, "It doesn't matter if it's not a goddess, a beautiful woman." After all, the judge has been a judge before, and now he has a priesthood, so the reference must be more practical.
The judge fell into a sluggish memory, and the other two judges also came over, gathered around Minos and began to join the sluggish set meal.
Persephone smiled habitually—doubtful—followed blankly.
After a long time, she left the three dementia judges silently holding a blank note.At first glance, these people have been working for too long, and they are bald and their brains are not working well at the same time.
When each of their gods heard the question, their faces showed the blankness of hearing unfamiliar words, as if they had never seen a "goddess" in eight lifetimes, let alone "beautiful".
After she took a few steps away, there was chattering gossip under the big tree at the entrance of the village behind her.
"Lying on the official clay board like a dog all year round, I have already forgotten what is beautiful." Aiacus sighed.
"Why do you suddenly ask the beautiful goddess, is she trying to capture Hades' lover like Hera?" the judge with the longest name whispered.
Minos immediately cheered up and retorted loudly, "Hades doesn't want a goddess. Every time he goes to the earth, let alone the most beautiful goddess, even the green-skinned forest nymphs will run away screaming. Except for a certain The beautiful young girl who came to Hades recently as a guest is kind enough to see him, no goddess, absolutely no other goddess is willing to approach him."
Finally, Persephone couldn't bear it anymore and turned around and shouted, "Don't say that Hades is like a plague, he is not as disgusting as you say."
Among other things, Hades' appearance can be regarded as a sign of Hades.If you really want to publicize and recruit believers, since the place where the Hades live is too dark, any long god can do it.
The judges, who were frightened by her calf-protecting attitude, immediately returned to seriousness, and each looked at a broken clay tablet, pretending that they hadn't said anything.
Persephone also reacted, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she ran away from the death scene with oil on the soles of her feet.
After running to the corner of the wall, she put her head against the crocuses on the mural, wishing she could smash a wall to eliminate her embarrassment. Did all these gods see that she had a different attitude towards Hades?
Could it be that her face couldn't hide things like that?Or does she automatically switch to the "saliva" emoticon whenever she sees Hades?
Just when Persefin's expression became distorted and he was gnashing his teeth, something brushed by his ear.She thought it was a new flower blooming, but in a blink of an eye, she saw a bird jumping down from the mural, lightly landing on her ears of wheat and rubbing against her hair.
She finally remembered something and looked up.
Seeing many colorful mural figures hidden in rows among the mural flowers, they were all staring at her stupidly.
This is when She died on the floor plan. Persephone picked up the papyrus to cover her face, and was about to quickly back away and disappear from here when all the attendants and wine boys on the wall ran down and touched her paper with their fingers.
Persephone felt that there were a lot of words on the paper, and when she turned it over, she saw their comments on beauty, "You look the best", "Beauty belongs to you", "You are the only goddess", and blah blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. flying.
Persephone has not forgotten that these were drawn by Hades. To some extent, they are similar to the life derived from the divine power of Hades, and they will also inherit the preferences of the original owner.
Hades' liking will affect their feelings for her.The people they think are beautiful are also thoughts extended from Hades' own consciousness.
Love is beauty, Persephone realized again the weight of this statement.
Perhaps in the eyes of Hades, who admires her, she is indeed beautiful without any external attire.
Persephone looked down at her feet for a long while before suppressing the corners of her mouth that were desperately raised.
Although I know that Hades' eyes are not working after being poisoned, it's okay to be secretly happy for a while, anyway, no one knows.
By sacrificial ritual, the olive wood was offered to Hades of Persephone, who was beginning to cut the wood for the bed.He noticed a joy that was close to being drunk rising from his heart, and he couldn't help but smile with the corners of his mouth.
Why are you so happy all of a sudden?
Encouraged by Persephone's emotions, he cut wood faster and more diligently.
Hades just wanted to make her happier, so he made all the forces obey her, serve her, protect her, and make her always have a good mood.
The power of this desire from the underworld itself is too pure, like a hot wind blowing through every corner of the palace, and also blowing away the old grayness on many murals, and more wine boys, waiters and priests jumped out of the paintings.
Holding flower crowns, amphora and all kinds of lovable objects, they gathered together with friends and companions, and rushed to the girl who was lovable to God.
The souls of the dead who had transformed into entities also woke up from the towering pillars, the ground, and the walls, and sang and danced.
They were the slaves who were responsible for the bottom work of Hades Palace when Hades first took control of Hades.Later, there were too many dead souls in the underworld, and they couldn't bear the crying and screaming day and night, so they were forced to sleep.
Persephone didn't even react, and was surrounded by a lively and bright river of people and ran out.She seemed to be immersed in a dreamland of rich colors, and all she could see were joy and flowers.
What's going on here?
She followed them in a daze, only to realize later that the group seemed to want to play with her.
The music played by the undead playing the reed flute and the harp was so light that they flew up, and the dancing skirts of the waiters and girls curled up beautifully.
Persephone stood among them. Although she couldn't sing or dance, she was infected and couldn't help stepping on the chaotic beat with her feet.
The pressure of studying for many days and the anxiety of not being able to find a way to draw the arrow were also swept away by the grand and dazzling party in front of them.
Persephone's flowers fell from her hair, and Aile's temperament reappeared. She smiled and applauded them.
This event made all the underworld gods turn their heads to look at it. Living in the dark and damp underground for a long time, I don’t know how many years I haven’t seen such a gorgeous scene.
The god of death also turned to look over, and even Ceres, the god of violent death lying on his shoulder, became quiet and gentle.
Several judges hooked their shoulders and sighed, "This is beauty."
Persephone asked them what goddesses they thought were beautiful, the underworld was occupied by the divine power of death and old age, so how could there be any beautiful gods.
Even if there are, they have only recently come to Hades.
Minos also took a special look at the god of death, "Tanadus, you say so."
The god of death glanced at him coldly, but did not leave, but continued to stand aside and watch.
The flowers are too prosperous, and the flames are too hot, so they dare not get too close, but this is indeed a very beautiful, very beautiful goddess.
