[Greek Mythology] Beside the Throne

Women always have a great motivation for dressing up, just like an underground well, once the water is dug open, the water will continue to gush upwards.

Ganymedes had been called up by the maids since dawn, and as soon as he walked in front of the mirror, the queen rushed to the door with a group of maids holding clothes, accessories and other things.

They filed in and packed the palace where Ganymedes lived to the brim with people. The meaning of rubbing shoulders here is to dress the prince in his best look.

It doesn't matter if someone accidentally steps on your beloved skirt, after all, at this time, the prince's beauty comes first!

"Put on this jewel necklace!" said the maid, holding a necklace full of blood rubies.

Taking this gold-backed necklace, Ganymedes only had two words.

Good weight……

This is the legendary big gold chain, right?he thinks.

"No, this one is too vulgar and doesn't match the prince's lily of the valley." Another maid refused the previous maid's suggestion, and she took out a silver necklace of aquamarine from behind and said, "Only this elegant sea gem Only then can you match the prince!"

Although the color is very clean and low-key, but...

Ganymedes took the chain out of the box, and looked puzzled at the gem, which was almost the size of an adult's fist.

Is this for self-defense?

"No! You should listen to me!"

"No, you should listen to me!"

The two maids were at a stalemate over what necklace Ganymedes should wear, and finally Ganymedes rejected their suggestion, saying that he would not wear any jewelry to attend the dinner for the sake of fairness.

Although the maids sighed, they were helpless. After all, this was the order of the prince.

However, in the end, under the strong request of the queen, Ganymedes put on the armlets that he had tried on in addition to the crown.

"This is what God the Father bestowed on me before I got married, and now I will give it to you, my child," said the queen.

Facing the gentle queen, Ganymedes felt guilty. After all, he was not his child, not the real Prince Ganymedes of Troads.

He is just a visitor from another world who has taken someone else's identity.

"Thank you." Ganymedes could only thank the queen.

Thank you for the gift she gave me, and thank you for her selfless love for him during this time.Even if the love was not for him but for Ganymede.

The queen looked softly at her grown son, stroked Ganymede's cheek and said, "Go, Gani."

"Ah."

Ganymedes, wearing a crown and fine attire, climbed to the highest point of the city of Troad with the king and queen, and looked down at the subjects below.Ordinary people can also look up at the most beautiful people in Troad under the city walls.

The appearance of Ganymede drew a kind of cheer from the people.

Perhaps because he had been a prince for a long time, Ganymedes was not timid in the face of such a fierce battle. He raised his right hand lightly and waved slightly, responding to the enthusiasm of the people.

This move has aroused people's excitement even more.Looking at the amazing face of Ganymedes, they looked at the eternally shining stars in the sky.

However, at this moment, there was a sudden gust of wind, dark clouds covered the sky above the city of Troad, and lightning rolled and flashed among the clouds like thousands of golden snakes.

Everyone's ears heard a shrill eagle cry that frightened the sky.

No one could have imagined that a huge eagle came flying from the other side of the sky. It attacked them without harming anyone but captured their most beautiful man, the prince Ganymedes.

The incarnation of the eagle is Zeus, the lord of the sky!

After tonight, Ganymede's reputation will spread throughout this continent of gods.Wandering poets sang his name everywhere, this beautiful boy who was favored by the god king and brought back to the holy mountain of Olympus, your appearance can make the gods intoxicated, and even the morning glow beside the clouds will lose its color, Ganymedes - the most beautiful person in the world.

Ganymedes, who was still waving with the people of Troad just a moment ago, lost consciousness after being hijacked by the giant eagle.

When he woke up, Ganymedes found himself on a big bed with a thin white blanket covering his body.He was still wearing the same gown he wore at the ceremony yesterday.

He opened his eyes and looked around. This is a palace completely made of white mica. The soft tulle is hung by the window. When the wind blows in, the white gauze moves lightly, just like the skirt of a dancing girl.

What's the situation Ganymedes said about waking up to a better environment every time?

Did he wear it again?

Sitting on the bed for a long time, there was a movement outside the door.

A group of beautiful nymphs entered the palace with their clothes in their hands. The appearance was exactly the same as that seen by Ganymedes in the palace of Troad.

This is the young man brought back by the God King, and they dare not disrespect him.

Although Zeus was merciful everywhere, even the princesses in the world, it was the first time that he brought mortals back to Mount Olympus.

Nymphs are more careful about this.

They said to Ganymedes with soft smiles: "Please change your clothes, Your Highness."

The nymphs lowered their beautiful heads, revealing a section of snow-white neck, which made people daydream a lot.

After passing through for the first time, Ganymedes accepted the service of the Nymph Fairy with exceptional skill, and put on the Olympus dress on his body.

Putting on the complicated and gorgeous costumes, the nymphs admired in their hearts.

Sure enough, he was a boy that even the god king was tempted by.

After finishing her task, the Nymph Fairy saluted Ganymedes and left again.

Ganymedes was the only one left in the huge palace.

In the past, when he was in Troad, there would be Yada and other female officials serving nearby, but this time he didn't.

The jade plate on the table is full of various fruits.

After Ganymedes ate a few, he walked out of the palace alone, thinking about where he had been this time.

A huge garden outside the palace was filled with flowers and trees unknown to Ganymedes.Ganymedes stood among them, sniffing the elegant fragrance of flowers and trees, which was refreshing.

He had no idea what he was going to do next, but he didn't want to be stuck here.

While he was thinking, Zeus came to the palace.

He smiled when he saw that Ganymedes had changed into the attire of God's Domain.

"Is it all right here?" Zeus said to Ganymedes.

"Well, but where is this?" Ganymedes raised his head to look at the man who was much taller than him in front of him.

Who is this person?Ganymedes thought to himself.

Xin's long body outlines a vigorous outline, and his appearance is extremely handsome.

"This is Mount Olympus."

"Land of the gods?" Ganymedes, who has read the history of the gods, is no longer the modern person who did not read Greek mythology.

"Yes, that's right."

"Then who are you?"

"Zeus." The God King answered his question by his real name.

After hearing Zeus' words, Ganymedes' eyes were full of shock.

Travel from modern times to the age of Greek mythology, from the palace of Troad to the holy mountain Olympus.

God are you kidding me?As an ordinary person, Ganymedes felt a little unbearable.

This is not a problem that can be solved quickly.

"Can I go back to Troad?" Ganymedes carefully asked the God King in front of him.

Rather than being surrounded by all kinds of high gods, the amiable mortal world of Troad is more suitable for him.

"No, until you can remember what you should remember." God King left such a sentence to Ganymedes before leaving.

Ganymedes, baffled by Zeus' words, watched Zeus leave.

What he said made Ganymedes, who didn't want to go out, sit on a chair in the palace, and from the window he could see the blooming flowers in the garden.

He thought of being a modern man as he recalled the brief days he had spent in Troard.

He should have thought of something before Zeus would let him go from Olympus.

what is that?Ganymedes frowned involuntarily.

Ganymedes was struggling to leave the palace of the gods, while Apollo went to the island of Kos where the goddess Leto lived.

In the temple on the island, Apollo met his long-lost mother Leto.

"Mother God." Apollo bent down and hugged Leto.

Leto also embraced his child back.

"Mother God, do you know that god?" Apollo told Leto what happened to him when he was young, hoping that his mother could answer his question.

However, Leto carefully recalled that the gods living in Olympus could not figure out who it was that Apollo saw.

"Apollo, you..." Leto didn't understand who could make Apollo so worried.

"Mother God, stop talking."

Disappointed that Apollo could not get a satisfactory answer, he had a meal with Leto without interest, and then left the island and returned to Olympus.

After Apollo left, Leto sat on the head of the temple and thought about the appearance of the god that his son had described to her.A thought flashed through my mind.

"No..." Leto thought of his own thoughts, opened his mouth with empty eyes.

On the way he remembered what Father God Zeus had said to his problem.

He said there was no such person on Mount Olympus.

Zeus's stern gaze seemed to be choking, and he clearly told Apollo that the gods he spoke of did not exist in this world.

"Could it be that what I saw was an illusion?"

Even at this moment, he can clearly remember the scene at that time and the look in his eyes that he will never forget.

The moment the god looked back, the world was still.

Everything in the world has lost their colors, only the pupils of the gods have disappeared from the world of mortals.

Apollo stood on the other side of the cloud, looking down at the waves of the sea.

There is no breeze blowing on the vast expanse of sea, and it is as calm as a mirror.

I heard the sound of the trumpet in my ear, which was the prelude to the banquet of the king of gods.

Apollo let go of the person he was thinking about, and used his divine power to rush towards the holy mountain Olympus floating in mid-air.
