Theogony - Dark Dawn

Chapter 12, Night 1 "The Price of No Regret"

Hades felt as if he had slept for 1000 years, and the shoulders were hard and hard to move.

He wanted to get up, but he couldn't move his hands or feet, not even a single finger.

Even so, his consciousness was still clear, and although he couldn't open his eyes, he felt a familiar aura.The man was sleeping beside him, exhaling his breath on his hands.

He felt a warm exhale and a warm current in his heart.

He really wanted to reach out and touch the man's head, and then tell him to go back to bed and sleep, don't sleep on his stomach, he will catch a cold.

However, my consciousness slowly became blurred again, I was very tired and wanted to sleep.In the midst of exhaustion, various voices rang in my ears, filling my head...

"Give us back the traitor."

"The fallen angels are traitors who will be burned in the lake of fire on the day of judgment to be punished."

"Since you want us to let the fallen angels go, you have to give up ten cities to us."

"It's just a small mistake, and people can't be reborn. Who is not wrong? Is this really heaven?

If Hades hadn't taken in our fallen angels with nowhere to go, our lives would be gone in no time. "

"Your Majesty, Uriel and I don't need you to do this for us..."

"Pluto—Hades, today is your death day."

He had a vague memory of being attacked, then shot with an arrow, and then fell from a high place in the clouds.

He knew that he would not die, but the arrow on the arrow... the terror could make him unable to open his eyes forever...

At that moment, what flashed through his mind was not the woman he once loved deeply, nor his loyal subordinates, or the beloved Kerberos.

Rather, that boy.

What would happen to that boy if he couldn't wake up again?

He will be very sad.

Hades felt that although he had lived for thousands of years, he seemed unexpectedly slow...

Perhaps, the past pain deterred him.

But at that moment, he really regretted it.

Why so late to know?

He should have realized it earlier, and then he could have told that boy earlier...

Hades opened his eyes suddenly, but what he saw was not Persephone, but a strange woman.

He struggled to stand up, but the woman tried to support him, but he warned her with her eyes.

Liu Ke paused, retracted his hand, surprise flashed in his heart, and whispered dissatisfiedly: "I saved you, how can you show such an attitude?"

Hades ignored him, looked around and found this cave, but outside was the Aegean Sea.

There was a hint of doubt in his heart, and he has been taking care of him, isn't it Poser Fen?Why would such a woman walk out?

Luce didn't know what Hades was thinking, this cold man didn't say a word after waking up.

"I am the sea nymph, daughter of Poseidon."

Luce said loudly, she lifted her egg-yellow hair, put it on her lips, winked and smiled, and said softly: "Maybe, you have already heard my name, Luce."

When Hades heard it, he remembered the marriage proposal.

He didn't like to get too close to strange women, especially those who were interested in him.

"Water, I'm thirsty." Hades said coldly, expressionless, without looking at her.

Liu Ke was taken aback for a moment, then showed a joyful smile, and shouted excitedly: "I, I'll find it for you."

After speaking, he walked out of the cave quickly.

Seeing her walking away, Hades stood up, walked out of the cave slowly, and headed towards Huangquan.On the way, he met his subordinate Uriel and the others, and was welcomed back to the palace by them.

The army has been searching for their emperor without sleep, and now everyone can't help laughing when they see His Majesty has returned safely.

And Uriel saw the blood-stained bandage on Hades' chest, and when he returned to the palace, he said worriedly: "Your Majesty, I'm going to announce the imperial physician."

"Posefen, where is it?"

Hades didn't answer his words, he raised his voice and asked.He wanted to meet the boy very much.However, he could not see Poserfen anywhere, nor could he feel his breath.

Upon hearing this, Uriel said stiffly, "Subordinate, damn it. Poser divided him..."

He swallowed his saliva, if he said it, he didn't take care of the boy...

Just when he was so scared that he almost knelt down, a dog barked.

Kerberos quickly threw himself at Hades' feet, wagging his tail excitedly.The bright red letter protruding from the tail of the snake, hissing and frightening.

"Kerberos, didn't you accompany Poseidon to find His Majesty?"

Uriel said in surprise, but he couldn't see that the three-headed dog had brought anyone back.

"Find me? Tell me what happened."

Hades frowned and ordered in a low voice.

Then, Uriel bit the bullet and told what happened, preparing to accept punishment.

Unexpectedly, after listening to this, Hades lowered his head and asked Kerubellos, "What about people?" Unlike Persephone, he can communicate with any animal.

He would ask this, obviously ordering the three-headed dog to find someone.

Kerberos barked, and Hades followed his footsteps and left the hall as fast as lightning.

Uriel originally wanted to persuade Pluto to treat the injury first, but he couldn't say anything, and he didn't know what to do.

Suddenly, a thought came to his mind, perhaps Poserfen and Pluto were a match made in heaven, and they also didn't like to hear people finish talking.

Hades believed in the efficiency of Kerubellos' actions, and soon the three-headed dog found a place by smell.

That is, the cave he stayed in just now.

Kerberos barked several times into the empty cave, and Hades knew it was unusual.

He raised his hand and cast spells that explained all barriers.

When the cast was finished, a weak figure was seen curled up on the cold ground.

His eyes were closed, and the clothes on his body showed traces, bloodshot and tattered, as if he had been tortured with a whip to extract a confession.

A mirror jumped beside him and cried loudly, "Poserfen, don't worry!" Although the magic mirror has powerful magic power, he doesn't know the magic of healing.

The magic mirror obviously also noticed that the enchantment that trapped them was opened, and looked back at the comer.

Hades' heart sank, and he hurried over, picked up the man, and placed Poser's split head carefully on his shoulder.

He held him in one hand, and put his finger between Poserfen's nose tremblingly with the other hand. He didn't let go of his worries until he heard a faint breath.

"So what happened?"

Hades finished treating Poserfen with healing magic, then hugged him and asked.He knew that there was a magical mirror in front of him.Although he didn't know how Poser got the mirror, the most important thing now was to figure out what happened.

The magic mirror was stunned, stopped crying, and said slowly: "Poser and I went to the price witch to get the antidote, and then came back to save you. But because Ruberos still has tasks in the underworld, he rushed back to complete them. I will stay here with Persephone. He has been taking care of you."

He liked this new little master very much, and Poser Fen never made any willful demands.He even proposed that Poserfen disguised himself as a woman to attract Pluto, but after the failure, Poserfen did not blame himself.Such a good little master, he doesn't want to lose him.

Hades's heart moved. It turned out that it was not his illusion. When he was unconscious, the person beside him was indeed Poserfen.

Halfway through the magic mirror's speech, his voice raised and he said harshly, "When you were about to wake up, a woman with egg-yellow hair suddenly ran up and asked us to hand you over to her. Poser refused. , the woman swung at him with a whip... and it was a dark green whip woven from seaweed, coated with cartilage powder, which can paralyze people so that they cannot move."

He gritted his teeth when he remembered how Poserfen was whipped.

If it weren't for that, he wouldn't be able to attack people casually, he would have killed that woman. (The magic power of the magic mirror must be effective for the master, not for selfish desires. Without the master's orders, it is just an ordinary mirror.) He forgot to tell Poser the point.Therefore, they had no power to fight back at that time.

Hades hugged the person in his arms tightly. Did he almost lose this boy?

He closed his eyes and remembered the scene of him standing on his shoulder in the form of a little skylark, just like it happened yesterday.

He had shown the most vulnerable expression in front of Poser, but he never despised him for a few years, but said he liked him.

He is crazy to escape the boy's feelings for him like this.What's so scary about falling out of love?What's so terrible about hurting?What could compare with Poser leaving him?Even if emotional matters may not be able to slender results, but at least tried.

How could he reject this boy because he was afraid of another failure?Instead, push him away and just keep him by his side.

Poser, wake up, wake up, and I'll tell you that.

Hades thought to himself, this sentence he said to the person in his arms, but also to himself.

"Do you remember what that person looked like?"

Hades asked the devil.Then, the magic mirror emitted a pale golden silver light, and after the light faded, the mirror showed the appearance of a woman.

Sure enough, it was her.

Hades glanced at the woman in the mirror, and said coldly, "Kerberos, go to Poseidon's temple. Even if the entire temple is destroyed, this woman must be found."

A trace of murderous intent flashed across the black eyes, and he whispered, "Get rid of her."

At this moment, he no longer thinks about how to maintain the scene of peace in the world, or how to reduce the size of this matter.

He, Hades, has been obediently in Huangquan for thousands of years.

He didn't offend anyone, but someone came to provoke him.

He will no longer swallow his anger and only adopt a defensive attitude.

He wants to destroy everything that can hurt this boy.

Hearing this, Ke Ruberos barked again, then left the cave without looking back, and jumped into the Aegean Sea.And the magic mirror looked at that Leng Yi's face with lingering fear.

He is a magic tool that has experienced the baptism of time, and he has seen many things in the world.

The killing intent in Pluto's eyes just now was a sense of oppression to destroy everything.

Hades gently carried Poseidon out of the cave, looking down at the person in his arms.

The light shone on his pitch-black armor, with a hint of light, as if he was just an ordinary mortal, diluting the dangerous smell.

Only the magic mirror knows that this man has seen the real hell, and only in this way can he show the look in his eyes just now.

But why did he see a gentle look in the man's dangerous eyes?

Just when the magic mirror was stunned, he heard the king from hell asking, "Posefen, what did you pay the price witch?"

For several weeks after Poserfen woke up, he didn't see Hades, and he always felt that he was busy with something.However, when complaining that Hades didn't look at him, he was also relieved, because if he saw Hades, he was afraid that he would show his flaws.

Poser sat on the bed, reached out to touch his throat, his eyes were a little sad.

However, if someone asked him, would he regret this choice?

He will definitely answer without thinking, without regret.

When Hades came to the bedroom, he saw the boy in a daze.

He walked over calmly, poured down a glass of water, then cut his fingers with sharp nails, dripping blood into the water.

"Posefen, drink this glass of water."

He came to Poserfen and put the water to the boy's mouth.

Poser paused, opened his mouth slightly in a natural reaction, and slowly slid down his throat with water in his mouth.

The cold water lingered in his mouth with a bloody smell, doubts flashed in his eyes, and he wanted to reach out and push the cup away.

"Drink it."

The tone was almost commanding, with a hint of anxiety.Poser had no choice but to drink all the remaining water into his stomach.

Hades stretched out his hand and gently wiped the water from Poser's mouth with his sleeve, with a gentle demeanor and focused eyes.Although Hades loves and cherishes him very much at ordinary times, Poser always feels that the atmosphere is a little different now.What was different, he couldn't tell.

"Hades, what have you been doing lately? Why, you only came to see me now."

Poser blurted out unconsciously, and he was startled as soon as he spoke.Why is his voice back?

Before, the price witch asked him to pay in exchange for his voice.

He had already prepared in his heart that he would never be able to speak for the rest of his life.

Hades saw his surprise, smiled slightly, and said softly: "Do you think there is anything you can hide from me?"

That natural tone doesn't sound annoying, but rather pampering.

"How do you know how to solve it?"

Poser blinked a few times and said in disbelief.

He touched his throat, and it didn't hurt at all, as if nothing happened and he recovered.

"Many people are afraid of birth, old age, sickness and death, even the Price Witch. As long as she asks to delete her name from the book of life and death, she will be willing to tell me the solution."

Hades said lightly, anyway, the Price Witch attaches great importance to the principle of equivalent exchange, and he offered generous terms, and there was no possibility of refusing them.

However, at this moment, he remembered what the witch said, that Poser could only unravel it by drinking the blood of his beloved.

At that time, with a glimmer of hope in his heart, he gave him his own blood to drink.

"You really still like me."

Hades said what was in his heart without knowing it.Poser's face flushed suddenly, and he wondered why Hades suddenly asked this question?

Hades stretched out his fingers to lift Poserfen's chin, gazed at it for a while, then bent down and put his thin lips in his mouth, and turned around gently...

Before Poser could react, he let him go.

Why kiss him?

Didn't Hades say that he doesn't like his own?

Poser looked at Hades with surprise and doubt in his eyes. He wanted to ask, but he couldn't make a sound.

The remaining warmth on the lips told him the truth just now.

It's not his own voice that makes him speechless now, it's the excitement that makes him speechless.

"Next time, don't do such a thing again, I will worry."

Hades smiled slightly and said softly.With slender fingers, she pushed back the hair that hung down to her shoulders.

Hearing this, Poser came back to his senses, nodded and said softly, "Oh! Next time, I won't let you find out, so you don't have to worry."

Hades chuckled, the little skylark was as weird as ever.However, very his style of answer.

Suddenly, Poserfen seemed to think of something, and hurriedly asked, "Hades, you didn't execute that woman, did you?" Of course Hades knew who the woman he was talking about was.

Hades didn't answer him, just looked at him quietly.

After a while, he asked, "You don't want her to die?"

Poser nodded. Although he didn't know who the woman was, he no longer wanted Hades to kill him.

Hades looked at Poserfen's face, pondered for a moment, and said calmly, "She didn't die, she just turned into a poplar tree. The seal will be broken after 2000 years."

However, the authenticity of the words no one knows how much is true and how much is false.

Hearing this, Poser breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the magic mirror was scaring him at all.

Hades' tone changed, his fingers slid across the place he had kissed, and a smile appeared on the corner of his eyes.

He whispered: "Posefen, I have something to deal with recently. You go back to the Temple of Demeter first. I will pick you up later."

Poser's cheeks were slightly red, and he felt the touch of his lips, and nodded.

It is not surprising that he often goes back and forth between the two places.

However, it was only later that he realized what Hades' "reception" was about.
