Greek Mythology: A loving father and a filial son

Chapter 242 Persephone Returns (Page 12)

After hearing what Hades said, Demeter's expression softened a little, but only a little. Her expression was still ugly, and her angry eyes seemed to have flames trying to burn Hades to ashes.

When Zeus heard Hades say that he had shared half of his power with Persephone, his expression changed, but then he calmed down. Then he looked at Demeter, wanting to see Demeter. How to say.

Demeter still said indifferently: "I want Boer to come back to me, otherwise I will let famine fill the world forever, and all the gods related to life will not have it easy."

Although Demeter is talking about the gods on the side of the Book of Life, don't forget that the connection between the gods is a giant network. One will be prosperous and one will suffer. Therefore, Demeter's words are undoubtedly for all gods. threaten.

Zeus frowned after hearing Demeter's words. Although he was the king of the gods, he could not decide the fate of other gods at will. He had to consider the harmony and stability of Olympus.

At this moment, Hades, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "Demeter, do you really want famine to fill this world? You have to know that the life in this world is not just yours. If you do, you too will become the enemy of all life."

Demeter was stunned for a moment by Hades' words. Although she was angry, she was not stupid. She knew that Hades was telling the truth. If she did allow famine to fill the world, she would indeed become an enemy of all life.

Thinking of this, Demeter took a deep breath, forced down the anger in her heart, and then said coldly: "Okay, I can prevent famine from filling the world, but you must let Boer return to me. .”

After hearing Demeter's words, Hades was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "I can let Boer return to you, but you must agree to a condition."

"What conditions?" Demeter looked at Hades warily.

"You must admit that Boer is already my wife and no longer pursue the responsibility for this matter." Hades said lightly.

After Demeter heard what Hades said, her expression changed again. She stared at Hades, as if she wanted to kill Hades with her eyes.

But Hades was not afraid at all. He still looked at Demeter calmly, waiting for her answer.

Demeter knew that she had no other choice now. If she did not agree to Hades's conditions, then she would never be able to see Boer. Thinking of this, Demeter took a deep breath and nodded slowly.

"Okay, I agree to your terms." Demeter said with difficulty.

After Hades heard Demeter's words, a smile appeared on his face. Then he turned to look at Zeus and said: "Zeus, since Demeter has agreed to my conditions, shouldn't you also How about expressing it?"

After hearing what Hades said, Zeus was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Hades, what do you want me to express?"

"It's very simple. You just need to recognize my marriage to Boer." Hades said lightly.

After Zeus heard what Hades said, a playful smile appeared on his face. He knew that Hades was forcing him to express his position. If he recognized the marriage between Hades and Boer, it would be equivalent to recognizing Hades' ownership of the underworld. Yes, ownership, not dominance.

And this was something he had been trying to avoid. However, if he does not admit it, he will undoubtedly offend Hades and other gods, and may even cause a war in Olympus. In a serious case, he may even be kicked off the throne.

Zeus weighed the pros and cons in his mind and couldn't make a decision for a while. He looked at Hades and Demeter in front of him, knowing in his heart that no matter what decision he made, it would have a profound impact on Olympus.

At this moment, a clear voice suddenly sounded, breaking the tranquility of the air.

"Zeus, as the king of the gods, you should uphold justice and fairness. The marriage of Hades and Persephone is a fact, and you should recognize their marriage." The speaker was Hera, as Demeter and Hades. Dis's sister, she has always been conflicted about this matter because she doesn't know how to balance things between them.

But now that Demeter and Hades have reached a consensus, she won't do anything exceptional.

Then Demeter looked at Hades indifferently and said, "It's time for Boar to come back!"

Demeter continued to look at Hermes and said: "Hermes, as the messenger of the Lord God, now go to the underworld and bring my daughter back!"

When Hermes heard Demeter's words, there was a hint of excitement on his face, and his eyes looked at Demeter with a hint of gratitude, because his authority as a messenger had expanded. He was originally a messenger of the gods, but in Demeter didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but he became the messenger between the underworld and the human world. This was undoubtedly an improvement in his authority.

And if possible, he could even cooperate with Hades. After all, Hades often had headaches for the undead stranded in the world, and he could dedicate half of his body as the guide of the undead, which would also enhance his authority.

Thinking of this, Hermes bowed deeply to Demeter, and then said: "Your Highness Demeter, I will definitely handle this matter."

After saying that, Hermes turned around and turned into a stream of light, disappearing into the sky.

Looking at the direction in which Hermes disappeared, a smile appeared on Demeter's face. She knew that her daughter would be back with her soon. Although she paid some price, it was all worth it.

Zeus looked at the smile on Demeter's face and felt relieved. He knew that this dispute was finally over. Although Hades got what he wanted, Demeter also got what she wanted. And Olympus also maintained its harmony and stability.

Now it's time for Hermes to bring Persephone back. Hermes landed by the River Styx. It was silent here, except for the occasional sigh of the undead echoing in the air.

He walked to the bank of the River Styx and looked at the countless shadows of the dead flowing in the river, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness in his heart. He knew that these undead souls were unable to enter the underworld to rest in peace for various reasons and could only wander here.

Taking a deep breath, Hermes braced himself and prepared to enter the depths of the underworld to find Persephone. At this moment, he felt a powerful breath coming from the depths of the underworld, and then, a huge black figure appeared in his sight.

That was Hades's mount, the Black Flame Horse. The Black Flame Pluto Horse is completely black, with blazing black flames burning on its body. It looks very majestic. It walked up to Hermes and looked down at him, as if looking at a tiny being.

Then Hermes used his divine power to tame it, and then rushed towards the Elysee Palace. Hermes arrived after a while. It's just that he can't fly as fast as himself.

After all, it is Hades's mount. As the main god, he has not had the chance to ride on it. Now he finally has the opportunity, so he also wants to experience Hades's mount, just like he teased Apollo before and stole his cattle. Go the same way.
