[Greek Mythology] Beside the Throne

Chapter 16 God King and God Queen

In this dim place, several brothers and sisters huddled together.Sometimes the eldest brother Hades held the young Hera, and sometimes the eldest sister Hestia held the young Hera.

Hades and Hestia, who have spent a hundred years here, have grown into adults.But in the eyes of the gods outside, maybe they are still too young.

Hades was the first child devoured, and the one who stayed here the longest.

His pale and handsome face was covered by long black hair, which made people feel that he was a gloomy and gloomy god.But in fact, he is the most gentle among these brothers and sisters except for Hestia.

Poseidon's rude embrace made Hera uncomfortable, and Demeter was too noisy. She was like a cuckoo in early spring, talking endlessly.

Only the soft singing of Hestia and the steady arms of Hades were Hera's favorite things in infancy.

Before Hera came, Poseidon was the youngest brother.Now because of the arrival of Hera, he is obviously very happy to get rid of the status of 'little brother'.I love Hera even more.

But Hera didn't like him very much.

When Poseidon wanted to take the young Hera from the arms of his elder brother Hades, the young gods whose names represented nobility would wave his white arms like lotus root to express their resistance.

Poseidon, who looked like a boy, was very sad about this.His long, curly light blue hair fell messily on his shoulders, and his depressed look made Hera wonder if he had done something wrong.

At this time, Hera in Hades' arms would stroke Poseidon's head with her short hands.It's like comforting a big dog who is in a bad mood.

Apparently, Poseidon also loves this set.

There is no light in this space in Cronus' stomach, and it is up to Hestia to light the lamp with divine power.

Demeter made it grow plants.She and Hestia wove clothing out of plant roots to cover their bodies.

Picking a flower and pinning it to Hera's ear, Demeter giggled.

"Our Hera is so pretty!"

A lot of time has passed in the womb, and Hera has grown from a baby to a one-year-old child.

The short, soft platinum-blonde hair was neatly attached to the side of the face with light curls, and the pair of huge eyes blinked flutteringly, and the thick eyelashes were like the wings of a butterfly.Curiously, he took the flower from his ear and sniffed it lightly on the tip of his nose.

"Ah-"

Hera frowned, he didn't like the smell.

"Hades, do you think Hera is too small?" Hestia said.

Hades nodded silently.

Hera spent enough time with them to lift a god out of its infancy.But he has only grown up a little.

Perhaps it was because of the lack of spiritual power in Kronos' belly that Hera could not grow up, they thought in their hearts.

In fact, in addition to the slow growth of the gods due to insufficient divine power around them, another reason is that the gods are too powerful, which will also make him grow too long.But Hades and the others didn't know this at this time.

Sorrow stained the goddess' brow, and even Hades became more silent.

Poseidon and Demeter played with Hera in their arms. They didn't know the worries of their brothers and sisters at all.Innocent smiles filled their faces.

When Hera saw the faces of Hades and Hestia, something seemed to flash in her heart, but it disappeared without a trace like a shooting star.

She slapped Poseidon with a "slap" with her hand, and Hera thought she had exhausted all her strength.But Poseidon who was slapped didn't care, not even a little red mark on his fair face.

He held Hera and slapped his little hand and said, "Is Hera expressing liking to my brother? My brother also likes you." After speaking, he hugged Hera and kissed him hard.

Hera stared blankly at her hand in a daze, and after a while, burst into tears.Make Poseidon and Demeter stand in place like petrification.

Hades, who took over Hera from Poseidon, slapped his younger brother on the head with his fist to tell him not to bully the young Hera, and even the gentlest and most understanding Hestia started Count down.

Poseidon wanted to cry with the big bag on his head.

Many years later, Hades recalled the past, and his always cold thin lips raised an arc.The underworld judge below was stunned and wished to drop his eyeballs.

Hera's arrogance and arrogance may have been developed under the connivance of him and his younger siblings.

But it all seemed lovely to him.

So what if the lovers and children of Zeus are dead, they are not as good as a finger of Hera.As long as Hera is willing, the gate of Hades will be opened for them at any time, and the dagger of death under his seat will never be soft.

Hera is still too kind.Pluto sighed.

Compared with Zeus, who was transferred by the mother god since he was a child and never experienced darkness, he, Hestia, and Poseidon are far inferior to Hera, who went through the most difficult moments together.

What's more, what Zeus did...

Thinking of those past events, Hades' green eyes became darker, and although there was a smile on his lips, it was more indifferent.

"Let Typhon out." Pluto ordered.

It's time to give the gods of Olympus a headache, thinking about the appearance of flying dogs and dogs on the holy mountain afterwards.At this moment, Pluto showed a comfortable smile. 'Zeus, please accept the gift I prepared for you. "

The sun god drove the sun golden chariot across the sky above Olympus, and white clouds floated in the blue sky with a sense of leisure.

The breeze blows into the palace of the Queen of God, and Rhea, the goddess of time, sits on a chair.

Her long hair is tied into a bun and she wears a golden crown of the Queen of God.

At this moment, she was stroking her slightly protruding abdomen, with a dazed expression, as if she was about to cry.

The nymphs wanted to go forward to comfort them but they didn't dare to get close, with embarrassment on their faces.

The Queen of God is no more than the Queen of God before.

The former gentle and elegant goddess has now become a woman who sheds tears at every turn and sometimes throws them out in a rage and then wreaks havoc on the palace and smashes things.

She is crazy.Every nymph who has seen her like this will have a word in their hearts.

Yes, the God Queen was driven mad by the God King.

No mother is allowed to watch her husband eat her offspring, and more than once.

None of Rhea's children could see the sun the next day, and she shouldn't have brought them into this world from the other side of life.

There was a look of madness in Rhea's eyes.

The divine power transformed into a sharp blade with a cold edge in her hands.

As long as the child is killed, then he will not be born to suffer and be eaten by his father.

With this thought in mind, Rhea stabbed the tip of the knife hard at her abdomen.

Before the nymphs could react or even make a cry, a ray of divine light wounded the goddess' hand, and the blade in her hand fell to the ground with a "dingling" sound.

The white gauze curtains in the palace were shaken and frivolous by the wind, and a goddess stepped into the palace of the queen.

She was wearing a light gauze gown, the moonlight-like soft texture embraced the goddess's delicate and mature body, which seemed to be concealed but could not cover up her charming and romantic.

She is like a datura flower in its heyday, whether it is a luxurious and rich floral fragrance or a flower open to enjoy the sun and rain, it reveals an extremely seductive atmosphere.

In her words, Meishen has no ability except to confuse men with gold belts and tie their hearts. She is just a young girl.

The gods who dare to belittle and criticize Aphrodite so head-on in this respect are none other than Gaia, the goddess of the earth.

She was the one who sent divine power to stop Rhea just now.

"Your Highness Gaia." The nymphs knelt down and saluted the noble goddess.

Rhea stared blankly at Gaia who was walking towards her, with two tears streaming down her face.

"Mother God..." Rhea yelled.

Gaia stepped forward to hug her daughter. Although she thought that Rhea would be sad, she didn't expect Rhea to become like this.

Gently patting her daughter's back, Rhea hugged Gaia's slender waist and wept loudly, sobbing that she almost fainted.

After Uranus was imprisoned in Tartarus, Gaia, who was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, returned to the Temple of the Earth and fell into a deep sleep.In just a few hundred years, when she woke up, she received news from Rhea and other gods.

Cronus was devouring his and Rhea's child!

This shocked her immensely.

Doesn't he know that every god has their destiny.Even if she hated Uranus no matter how much she couldn't kill him completely, she could only imprison him in the abyss of hell.

Uranus represents the sky, he is the personification of the sky.If he dies the sky will cease to exist.

Cronus, her good son.

Not allowing the gods to be born means that they cannot supplement the rules of the world, and those who violate the rules will definitely be condemned by the world.

Although the God of Creation and Destruction of Time's move can temporarily delay no one can pull him down from the position of God King, but even if all his children die, the law will not let him go.

This is why Mother Earth rushed to Olympus as soon as she woke up.

Even if Cronus does too much, he is still his own child.

Gaia touched Rhea's face with a sigh, and sighed: "You have suffered, my child."

Rhea raised her tear-filled eyes and said, "Mother God, I want to kill the child in my belly."

"Are you crazy?!" Gaia reprimanded loudly.

Faced with a son who was about to be punished by the law, and a daughter who was driven crazy by her husband.The goddess of the earth who just woke up is really tired.After listening to Rhea's description, Gaia felt that the current situation was a little better.

"Rhea, your children are not dead, they are just trapped in Cronus' belly." Gaia said.

"Really?" Rhea, she always thought the children were dead.

"Yes, killing the gods will attract divine punishment." Gaia reassured her daughter.

Rhea shed tears of joy and joy.Her children are not dead.

Wiping away the tears on Rhea's face with a handkerchief, Gaia waved back the nymphs in the palace and set up a sound-proof barrier.

At this time, Mother Earth asked Rhea, the goddess who was crying on her lap, "Do you want to save your child?"

Rhea couldn't stop nodding when she heard this.Of course she would.

Goddess Gaia smiled.

After a long conversation.

"Do you know what to do?"

"Yeah." Rhea's eyes showed a firm look, and she covered her stomach.At this moment the weak goddess becomes a strong mother.

"Very good." Gaia stood up from the chair, fiddled with her sideburns a few times with her slender hands and said, "Now follow me to see Cronus."

Rhea nodded.

Gaia removed the barrier, and the nymphs returned to the palace.

"Dress up for me." The God Empress ordered.

Rhea, who has not dressed up for a long time, made all the nymphs look sideways.However, they followed the will of the gods and took out eye-catching accessories and gorgeous dresses from the wardrobe.

The long-unused gemstone necklace finally sees the light, and they are shining brightly in the sky.Even more beautiful than them, however, is the goddess Rhea who wears them.

He looked up and down, and finally nodded with satisfaction.

"Let's go," Gaia said.

She stepped out of the palace, followed by Rhea.

The two goddesses with the highest status in the world led a group of young and beautiful nymphs to set off from the Queen's Hall to find the God King Cronus.

"Mother God, why are you here?" Kronos, who did not expect Gaia to come to Mount Olympus, said to Mother Earth.

Then he looked at Rhea behind Gaia.

He hadn't seen Rhea in full makeup for a long time, and the cold war between Rhea and him gave him a headache.But today his queen is so beautiful.Cronus thought.

Use divine power to raise a throne in the palace that stands side by side with the god king.Gaia went up to sit down, her crossed legs seemed to reveal a seductive spring, but was covered by the light veil on her body.

"Cronus, my child, I am so disappointed in what you have done."

Cronus, who knew what Gaia was talking about, frowned.

He didn't want to argue with Gaia about it, especially now that Rhea was here.Kronos felt he was doing the right thing.If he doesn't do anything, what awaits him is to be exiled in Tartarus just like his father Uranus.

Seeing that Cronus still looked unrepentant, Gaia sighed inwardly.

Whether it is the gods or the birds and beasts on the ground, they are all regulated by the law in the future.Thinking of the curse made by Uranus when he was defeated, Gaia's heart gradually became cold.

Things have reached a point of no return.

Gaia reached out and touched Kronos' cheek.This is the smallest god among the twelve Titans and the most powerful god.Because he was the youngest son, Gaia couldn't help but favor him.

The goddess's beautiful eyes are full of love for her children, but what is hidden inside is grief.

In the end, she still couldn't change the fate that had been written long ago.

The second-generation God King Cronus will be overthrown by his own children and become a prisoner.

"I'm leaving, you can take care of yourself." Gaia got up and left, leaving the couple Cronus and Rhea looking at each other.

Walking out of the temple, the goddess of the earth shed a drop of tears facing the open world.

Tears fell into the hard floor tiles and even took root and sprouted a trembling flower.

Father God Ochas, why did you bring us into this world but not control your own destiny?

Gaia, who closed her eyes to hide the sadness in her eyes, opened her eyes again, and she will be the goddess of the earth who is known far and wide.

Maybe it's time for me to go to Abyss Hell to talk to my sister Nix.Goddess thought.

After Gaia left the temple, it suddenly became quiet. Except for Nymph, who held her breath and didn't dare to make any noise for fear of angering the gods, the god king and queen sat on their own thrones and did not speak to each other. The atmosphere was oppressive and dull.

After listening to Gaia's words, Rhea still couldn't face Cronus for a while.

On the other hand, Kronos, there is apology in his eyes, but this apology only means that he did not stay by Rhea's side when she was in pain. Regarding the devouring of children, he still thinks he is right .

He seemed to want to say something, but he didn't know how to say it.

Thinking of what Gaia said to herself, Rhea suppressed the tumbling emotions in her heart, so she spoke first.

"Are you ok?"

"Riya, you are finally willing to talk to me, I am very happy." Hearing his wife's long-lost greeting, Wang Xian was pleasantly surprised and happy.When this expression appeared on his already extremely handsome face, he was like a morning star shining in the dark night, enough to attract everyone's attention.

Once upon a time, Rhea got the love of Cronus in the jealousy and envy of other goddesses, but the past is gone like clouds and smoke.

"Really?" Rhea said.She considered how to tactfully continue the chat, but it was inevitable that she would talk about the child.

The word child has become the last thing that can't be talked about between the god king and his wife.

The young god king really couldn't figure out why his wife wanted to defend those who would overthrow his rule.In his eyes, they are not his children but his enemies.

Kronos felt that Rhea would still understand him.

"Rhea." Cronus put his chin on the top of his wife's head as he grabbed the goddess.His elegant and mellow voice slowly flowing out is more pleasant than the music from the harp.

"Don't think about them, okay?" said the God King.

"...Okay." With her head down, Rhea's eyes were deep and there was a trace of madness hidden.

Not long after, news of the reconciliation of the king and queen spread among the gods.

Gaia, who was far away on the land, was only taken aback when she heard it, and then smiled immediately. She took the newly found handsome god by her arm to have fun with him.
