[Greek Mythology] Beside the Throne

Chapter 68 The Young God of Light

Roses protrude from the wall outside the temple, exuding fragrance and dazzling colors.Just like its master, Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty.

As the female officer of the queen Hera, the rainbow goddess Iris had no contact with the goddess of beauty at first, but inexplicably became a friend of Aphrodite.This surprised her too.

Since Apollo, the god of light, was taken away by the nymphs of the Temple of the God King, Iris's life became idle.

Invited by Aphrodite, Iris came to the appointment with flowers she picked from the garden.

Approaching the Temple of Beauty, you will be greeted by two huge pools next to the steps of the palace, in which white swans are swimming.Their long, graceful necks and immaculate plumage are the most admirable features.

The scent of roses filled the air, and Aerys crossed the threshold and walked towards the temple.

With Nymph leading the way for Iris, she finally saw the goddess Aphrodite, the master of the Temple of Beauty, who was about to visit.

The flower brought by Iris was held by the leading nymph, who gave it to Aphrodite.

Aerys saluted the Beauty God and said, "Good day, Your Highness."

Aphrodite smelled the fragrance of the flowers that Iris had brought, and said to her, "Sit down, Iris."

"Yes." Aerys nodded to the Goddess of Beauty, and sat down on the chair placed beside her.

The two goddesses together are nothing more than talking and chatting, talking about which Olympus has the best flowers, and which family's male god fell in love with which goddess.The content of the chat and so on.

Aphrodite liked Iris very much. In her opinion, Iris was very real and humble, unlike other goddesses on Mount Olympus.

She had a nice chat with Iris, but someone interrupted her date with Iris.

Seeing who the coming god was, Aphrodite frowned slightly.

Aerys turned his head to look and found that it was the god of the Temple of the King of Gods.

Is the King of God looking for the God of Beauty for something?Aerys had some doubts in his mind.

But the gods did not bring any oracle from the god king.The Goddess of Beauty said a few words to the nymph who was waiting beside her as if she already knew why the gods came. Iris saw the nymph took out a box from the inner palace and handed it to the gods in the palace of the king of gods. .

After the gods bowed to Aphrodite and bid farewell, Iris and Aphrodite resumed their chat.But the careful Iris could observe the unnatural expression on Aphrodite's face just now.

As usual, when the sunset is all over the sky.Aerys bids farewell to Aphrodite.

The Goddess of Beauty told her to let her visit often, and Aerys smiled and nodded in agreement.

She took the rose that Aphrodite gave her and returned to the Temple of the Queen of Heaven.

The goddess of timing showed a clear expression when she saw the rose in her hand.Among them, Di Ke, the goddess of summer, said: "The beauty god gave it to you again?"

Aerys nodded with a smile.She put the flower basket on the table, and the roses in full bloom were ostentatious and bright.It can be said that the most beautiful roses at this time bloom in the palace of the god of beauty. If other gods want it, they will ask for it, but the god of beauty always gives Iris a lot of roses. The nymphs are very jealous.

Dike took a rose and cut off the excess branches and leaves with scissors.Inserted in the long hair of my sister Erenie and said: "It's so beautiful."

Erinie ran to the mirror and asked Hera, the Queen of Heaven, and said, "Your Majesty, what do you think?"

The pure red roses are inserted between the goddess's golden hair, which sets off her appearance especially movingly.

Hera nodded and said, "It looks good." She was never stingy in complimenting others, even the compliments were very direct.

Although the goddess of the rainbow and the goddess of timing are the maids of Hera, the queen of heaven, Hera treats them very friendly, which makes them love their master even more.

When the three goddesses of timing chased each other with roses, Iris looked at Hera hesitantly, wondering if he should tell her what he saw today.

Seeing the hesitation on Iris' face, Hera said, "Iris, do you have anything to tell me?"

The goddesses of timing stopped when they heard Hera's words and looked at her and Iris.

Onomia said to Iris: "What happened to you when you went to the Goddess of Beauty?"

Iris has been going to Aphrodite since the morning, and if something happened, it must be in the Temple of Beauty.

Aerys nodded at them.She recalled what she saw today and felt a little unreasonable.Seeing the appearance of the beauty god should not be the first time to do this.And most importantly what's in that box?

To be related to the God King is to be related to the Queen of Heaven, and Aerys still told Hera everything he saw.

She stood there, waiting for Hera to speak.

Although the god of beauty is very good-looking, the king of gods is a playful guy.But I have never heard of any scandals between them.There is almost no communication between the Temple of the King of God and the Temple of Beauty.What Aerys said made the other three goddesses feel a little puzzled.

The attention of the three goddesses of time series is all on whether the king of gods and the god of beauty have adultery/love, but Hera and Iris think the same.

Zeus should have something to hide from himself.Hera thought.

Sitting in a chair and meditating, she suddenly remembered that there was another god living on Mount Olympus.

Bright white gemstones, long platinum-blond hair, and those pupils... people can't forget it when they see it.

After receiving the box ordered by God King Zeus from Aphrodite, the gods of the God King Palace saw it handed over.

Zeus on the throne opened the box and saw what he wanted was put in it, he couldn't help smiling with satisfaction, and then his smile dimmed.

Seeing the changing emotions on Zeus' face, the gods were puzzled, but they didn't dare to speak or even think about it. They could only lower their heads and stare at the smooth floor tiles under their feet.

Under the care of the goddess Nymph, the future god of light, Olympus, a male god of light, Apollo, has grown from a baby to the appearance of a seven or eight-year-old human child.

Apollo, who has almost traveled all over Mount Olympus, has begun to dislike it and want to go outside to play.He came here this time hoping that Zeus would agree to let him go to the place where Leto lived, where he could not only see his mother Leto but also his sister Artemis.

He came to the temple of Zeus to meet his father and said, "Father, I want to go to the island of Kos, the mother."

The young God of Light wears a blue robe dyed by fairies with lisianthus flowers, and has a gold arm ornament on his arm.The appearance is immature, but the pair of blue eyes are exactly the same as that of his father Zeus.

Although Zeus hated the goddess Leto but loved Apollo, he allowed Apollo to live in Leto's temple for three days every month, but otherwise he had to stay in Olympus to study as the eldest son of the god king. things.

Apollo is the eldest son of Zeus and the god of light. Zeus has high expectations for him and hopes to entrust him with important tasks in the future.

Apollo's stubbornness is obvious to all the gods of Mount Olympus, and almost all of them have suffered from this god of light.However, although Zeus knew it, he still indulged him.Because he has the right to do so, but while giving him the right, he should also be responsible for the affairs that other gods do not need to undertake.

Facing the ardent expectation in Apollo's eyes, Zeus replied, "No."

"Why?" Apollo suddenly became disappointed, but he still wanted to ask why Zeus didn't let him go to Kos Island.

"You have been here this month." Zeus said.

"Can't we go again?" Apollo felt that there was still room for negotiation on this matter.

"The rules are the rules and cannot be changed." Zeus never let Apollo do whatever he wants on this point.

The dejected Apollo walked out of the temple, sighing as he walked.

Nymph saw Apollo coming out of the temple and walked towards him.

"How about it, did the God King agree?" Goddess Nymph bent down and asked Apollo, who was still in a good figure.

"No, Father God didn't agree."

Goddess Nymph touched the curly blond hair of the Future God of Light and said, "Then let's go next time." She had told Apollo that Zeus would not agree to this matter, but Apollo still insisted on asking.The goddess who knew everything in her heart shook her head and walked towards the residence holding the hand of the God of Future Light.

On the way, Goddess Nymph suddenly thought of something and said to Apollo, "Your Highness, I have something to do, can you go back by yourself?"

"Yeah." Even the answer was weak.

Nymph Goddess smiled and patted Apollo on the shoulder to express her comfort.

Apollo was stepping on the lush lawn, and the bad mood made the gods avoid him, for fear that all his unhappiness would be vented on themselves.

Apollo didn't care about not being able to go to Kos this time. What he thought was that the relationship between the father god Zeus and the mother god Leto was really as bad as the gods said.

He had grown up on Mount Olympus as long as he could remember, and had seen the goddess Leto very rarely.Leto never went to Mount Olympus, and every time he followed the Nymph to the island of Kos to meet her.

In fact, Mount Olympus also has a goddess who can be regarded as his mother goddess, and that is Hera, the queen of heaven.Apollo actually didn't hate her at first, and even felt a little close to her inexplicably.However, in the mouths of other gods, it is known that Hera once prevented his mother goddess Leto from giving birth on the earth and ordered the gods not to help her to persecute her.Apollo also became disgusted with her.

In the past, Apollo would go to the Temple of Heaven to play with Hera, Iris and the three goddesses of timing, but he never went there again.The Temple of the Queen of Heaven on Mount Olympus became a forbidden area for Apollo, the god of light.

Kicking a stone on the grass away, Apollo seemed to vent all his depression in it, but he didn't expect to kick the god.

The moon god Selene did not expect that even walking on the road would bring disasters.

The bag on the back of her head was exuding pain and she didn't dare to touch it with her hands. Who the hell is it that someone who doesn't have eyesight actually bullied her on the head!

Selene looked around ferociously, hoping to find out who was behind the murder, but she turned around and didn't see the culprit.

"Goddess, are you okay?" Ning Fu who was following her asked with concern.

Selene stomped her feet fiercely, clutched her bag and hurried away, intending to cry about it to her sister, the Goddess of Dawn, Eos.

Hiding in the bushes and watching this scene, Apollo didn't feel guilty about kicking Selene at all, but gloated at his misfortune.

He didn't forget that the moon god Selene said in front of him that his mother god Leto's status was low, so father god Zeus didn't like it.

deserve it!Apollo defines what happened to Selene.

After this episode, Apollo walked more and more away from the direction of the temple where he lived, and came to a place that even he had never been to.

Is there any place on Mount Olympus that he hasn't been to?

This can't help but make the curious God of Light very interesting.

The place is full of green trees, and the sunlight shines through the intersections of the branches and leaves, casting bright spots on the grass.This secluded and quiet atmosphere made Apollo slow down his pace.

The sound of a flute came from not far away, which made Apollo's desire for knowledge even more aroused.

Who could be blowing the flute?

The author has something to say:

The scene where Apollo’s classmate meets Hera is in

There are descriptions in Chapter 6 "Dreams and Memories", so I won't write it here, for fear of making up the number of words, hehe.
