antique on the run

Born lame and ugly, Hephaestus, the god of fire and craftsmen, is clearly the biological child of Zeus and Hera, but he has never been treated kindly by his mother.When he was young, he longed for the closeness of his mother, and this feeling gradually swelled and fermented into a strong love. He told his mother about his love, but what he got was Hera's disgust and disgust.

Hera ran away from her son far away, turned around and married Aphrodite to Hephaestus, first to prevent her son from having any wrong thoughts about herself, and second, so that she would not be afraid of being the first in the God Realm. The goddess of love and beauty, known as a beauty, will seduce her philandering husband, Zeus.

Hera planned well, but there was no emotion at all between Aphrodite and Hephaestus, the superficial couple. Hephaestus was concerned about his beloved mother Hera, and Aphrodite Frodite despises her husband's ugliness, and has a lot of lovers outside, such as Ares and Hermes, the god of war, are one of her lovers.

Hephaestus didn't stop his wife from messing around outside, there was no conjugal affection between him and her, it would be better to live their own lives and be happy at ease.

It was a good thing for both parties to have such a relationship of entering the water and not breaking the river, but because of Aphrodite's sudden pregnancy, things took a turn for the better.

Hephaestus could tolerate Aphrodite raising countless lovers behind his back, but he could not tolerate her giving birth to children of other men.

It's a shame that the other gods would point their spines at.

Of course Aphrodite was unwilling. Apart from Hermes, Ares, the god of war, was her favorite man. Now that she finally had a child of Ares, how could she destroy it!

She argued with Hephaestus, but Hephaestus was extremely determined in this matter. He even cited his mother Hera as an example to tell Aphrodite what a truly qualified wife is like. of.

This led to what happened later. Aphrodite told Hephaestus sarcastically that your deeply loved mother would also cheat and have an affair. She avoided you only because you were too serious. It's just ugly, just wait and see, even a weak and incompetent mortal man can still capture Hera's heart.

She took this as a bet and asked Hephaestus that if she really succeeded in causing Hera to cheat, then from now on, Hephaestus would no longer be able to interfere in her private life, no matter whose child she gave birth to. No further objections are allowed.

Hermes, who deeply believed in his mother's loyalty, agreed to the bet with Aphrodite. He firmly believed that Hera would not be tempted by any man other than God the Father, but who knew that the result was deeply hurt. He, Hera really cheated. She was no longer loyal to her husband, but had an affair with a mortal man for five consecutive nights.

"So now Hephaestus has agreed with Afu to give birth to Ares' child, and promised that he will never interfere in the affairs between Afu and his lover from now on." Hermes sighed.

In fact, compared to himself, Hermes felt that Hephaestus might have been hurt more. His mother, who he trusted and loved so deeply, still failed his sincerity after all.

Qi Xiao didn't speak for a long time.

After he came to this time and space, he encountered things related to Hephaestus many times, but he never really saw this "son" once.

Judging from the records of Greek mythology, Hephaestus is a very miserable and lonely god. He did not love his parents and had no happy marriage. He was rejected by his biological mother and disgusted by his wife. Gloomy, not as flamboyant as Ares, not as powerful as Hermes, he has no true friends on Mount Olympus, and is always huddled alone in a corner, covering his ugly appearance and lameness .

In conscience, Qi Xiao does not think that Hera has fulfilled her duty as a mother according to modern moral standards.

But this is the era of Greek mythology where relationships are chaotic, and all unreasonable things will become reasonable here, so Qi Xiao can't blame Hera and Zeus for anything.

"So Aphrodite just wanted to prove to you and Hephaestus that Hera was also unfaithful." Qi Xiao made a conclusion slowly, but suddenly asked with great interest: "Then Hera Moss, tell me, after knowing these things, do you still admire me now?"

After learning that the goddess who represents loyalty and devotion in your heart will also have an affair scandal, will you still continue to admire her?

Hermes was stunned for a moment, and then smiled wryly: "How could I... not admire you."

If a love can come and go so easily, it can't be called love.

"Then what is your purpose for coming today?" Qi Xiao asked again the question that Hermes had asked when he first came.

"My reason for coming..." Hermes pondered for a moment, "I don't know what you are asking now. I was in a mess at first, and wanted to ask you why you were tempted by a mortal, why you violated You are loyal to God the Father, why...don't you choose me."

After learning that Hera had a relationship with Nautilus, Hermes was indeed jealous and in pain for a long time. He didn't know what he couldn't compare to Nautilus. Was it his appearance?Or a trick to please women?Otherwise, why Hera would rather favor a mortal than choose him...

But now, Hermes shook his head and said calmly: "But now I think, no matter whether you are loyal to Father God or not, I probably have no chance."

After five nights of cheating, Hera said goodbye to Nautysius, telling him that she could not do anything wrong to her husband, and they would never see each other again.

After all, she regained her most precious loyalty and faith.

Hermes laughed suddenly, maybe he should be thankful, at least compared to Nautysius who will never see Hera again, he can still sit with the statue of the goddess he loves to drink tea and chat like this instead of After a short gain, it is completely lost, leaving only one person's sad thoughts.

Sometimes, not getting it is probably a kind of luck.

There are gains and losses, but whether the gains outweigh the losses or whether the gains outweigh the losses depends on how the individual judges.

Hermes re-poured himself a cup of tea, the aroma of roses lingered on the tip of his nose, sweet and intoxicating, he took a sip from the cup, raised his head and smiled and said, "Your Highness, can I still come to your place for tea in the future?" ?”

Qi Xiao returned a smile: "Of course."

He looked past Hermes, looked at the magnificent Temple of the Queen of Heaven, looked out the window at the top of Mount Olympus that meets the sky, and stood silently beside him, taking care of Hera diligently and hard-working. Living Defias.

These days, thank you for your care.

The divine power quickly dissipated from the fingertips, and the gorgeous fiery red long hair was once again smudged with black, and the golden glow gradually faded from the pupils, revealing the original black.

It's like a god who has stepped down from the altar, taking off his divinity, but still shockingly beautiful.

Qi Xiao closed his eyes, it seems that Sai Wei has completed the final step, the pursuit of the world of Greek mythology is finally over.

Farewell, Hera, and the gods of Olympus.
