[Greek Mythology] Beside the Throne

Zeus came home from get off work.

The wind in the evening carries the smell of the camphor trees planted on both sides of the road. It is spicy and fragrant, mixed with the scent of the sweet-scented osmanthus trees blooming on the side. Mixing together, it ushers in autumn.The sun has not completely faded at this moment, and the remaining light is gentle and moving, full of a quiet and leisurely atmosphere.

He bought a box of moon cakes at the pastry shop next to the school.

Before, Hera said that the five kernels were not tasty, so this time he chose fresh meat mooncakes after being recommended by the clerk.

Today happens to be the Mid-Autumn Festival on August [-]th.

In addition to mooncakes, Zeus also ordered hairy crabs on his mobile phone to be delivered to their places of residence.It is believed that at this time Hera has received the fresh crabs wrapped in ice packs in a foam box, and is waiting for him to go home and cook them.

After coming to this world for more than ten years, Zeus felt that he was becoming less and less like a god and closer to an ordinary person.Like them, they will eat rice dumplings for the Dragon Boat Festival and glutinous rice balls for the Lantern Festival.Live the most ordinary life, full of worldly atmosphere.

"I bought another flavor of mooncake today, come and try it." Zeus said to Hera when he got home and put the mooncake box on the dining table.

Now that Hera has recovered her memory and is honest with Zeus, Hera did not listen to Zeus's words to touch the moon cakes, but pointed to the living room for him to see by himself.

"What?" Zeus was a little confused.

"Just take a look and you'll know." Hera sighed helplessly.

When Zeus walked into the living room, he saw a man in a Greek-style robe lying on his back lying on the sofa, occupying most of the seats by himself.

At this moment, he closed his eyes, obviously sleeping just right.

"How did you find him?" Zeus asked, frowning while looking at his sleeping brother.

"At the door," Hera said.

Hera's work unit happened to be on holiday today, and during the day Zeus told him that someone would deliver crabs to his door, so he stayed at home all day without going out.

It's just that he didn't expect to receive another Poseidon after signing for the crab.

Looking at Poseidon who was still asleep, Zeus said, "What's the matter?"

Zeus knew it was Poseidon but he didn't know why he appeared in his home in the human world.

Hera glanced at him and said, "That's what you said."

However, it probably has nothing to do with Chaos.The two know each other well.

Zeus scratched his head with his hands a little irritably, then waved and said, "Leave him alone, I'll cook first."

"Okay." Hera nodded in agreement.

Zeus found Hera when he was seven or eight years old and raised him.During this time it was Zeus who did the cooking, and it is still the same today.

Zeus has changed from a king of the gods who does not eat human fireworks to a house cook who can cook everything.

congratulations.

Zeus and Hera glanced at each other and went about their business.

Zeus went to the kitchen while Hera took the computer and worked on the coffee table in the living room.

The sky outside the window became dark, and a full moon poked out from the black clouds, illuminating the entire earth.

Poseidon wakes up.

This time he fell into a drowsy sleep, vaguely remembering that the last thing he saw was Chaos, and he didn't remember anything else.

"woke up?"

"En." Poseidon answered while covering his forehead, he stood up and looked up, but found that he was in a place he had never been before, and sitting next to him was a man he had never seen before.

Black hair and black eyes, although the shadow hides his breath, but he is a god.

"Who are you?" Poseidon said to Hera.

Hera, who was wearing gold-rimmed glasses, was looking at the computer screen, and her ten fingers were fluttering and typing on the keyboard.He looked up at the extremely tall blue-haired man who said nothing coldly.

Poseidon was a little uncomfortable with him being treated like this, he had never been seen like this except Hades.

This kind of gaze made him feel familiar, but when he wanted to look at Hera's face and explore something on his face, Hera turned his gaze back to the computer screen again.

"why do not you talk?"

Poseidon didn't know that Hera didn't speak because he didn't know how to communicate with him.

They are no longer brothers.

Poseidon is both familiar and unfamiliar to him, but the other party will not feel this way, because he does not appear in his life at all.

Chaos has erased all Hera's presence in that world.

Zeus, wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen and looked at the two of them and said, "Come and eat."

Closed the computer with a "snap", Hera passed by Poseidon to the restaurant and Poseidon looked at his back in a daze.

Hera was ready to peel crabs at the dining table, and Zeus went to the living room and looked at Poseidon who was still sitting on the sofa and said, "What are you doing?"

Except for the color of the eyes of Zeus, his facial features and temperament have changed greatly.But Poseidon recognized him anyway.

it's him!This man who suddenly ran away and made him a god king!

"How did you become like this?" Poseidon asked, and then he pointed to Hera and said, "Who is he? What is your relationship?"

Besides, Poseidon had a lot of questions for Zeus.

However, Zeus said: "Where does your sudden trouble come from to ask so many things?"

Originally, I was happy to eat crabs with Hera at night, why did I suddenly come to disturb them...

If it weren't for Poseidon being his elder brother, Zeus absolutely believed that he would throw him out the door and let him wander on the street, so he wouldn't bother him.

"What?" Poseidon didn't expect that he would be accused by Zeus with the face of a victim.

Rolling up his sleeves, Poseidon looked at Zeus and said, "Do you want to fight?"

Although Poseidon and Zeus fight, the latter wins and the former loses, but even though he was punished to repair the city wall for Troy, Poseidon still does not admit his weakness.Has been running on the road of repeated defeats and repeated defeats.

Zeus endured until now and really wanted to vent his anger.

Just when the two wanted to go out for a fight, Hera, who was sitting at the dining table and had already started to dismember the second hairy crab, spoke.

"Come here and eat."

After sitting at the dining table, Poseidon suddenly thought about why he and Zeus were so obedient and came over to eat obediently.

Facing the cooked hairy crabs on the plate, Poseidon, the former emperor of the sea, said, "How do you eat this stuff?" He asked while pulling one of the crab's legs.

Zeus looked up at him and said, "Eat with your mouth."

Poseidon snorted and stopped touching the crab.

Hera's hands were slender and white, the roots were carved like jade, and the knuckles of his fingers were not obvious.You can tell at a glance that it is the kind of hand that has never worked.

At this moment, he opened the crab shell and broke off the crab legs.A set of crab-eating procedures is done in a smooth manner.It is as pleasing to the eye as watching people make tea.

Hera has a habit of stopping after eating two crabs.However, I don't know if I think it's fun to open crabs or something, so I will pick crab meat for others to eat.

In the past, it was Zeus who enjoyed this service.But today Zeus watched Hera put a plate of crab meat in front of Poseidon with his own eyes.

"Eat," Hera said.

After peeling the crabs, his hands still couldn't avoid the fishy smell of the crabs.He got up to wash his hands, and now only Zeus and Poseidon were left at the table.

"You can go after eating." Zeus said to Poseidon.

Poseidon, who was eating crab meat and hadn't spoken yet, just raised his head and was hit by Zeus with a word.

"eat fast!"

After washing her hands, Hera saw this scene and suddenly felt that Zeus staring at Poseidon was like a mother staring at a child who doesn't like to eat.

Maybe, he thought too much.

The house of Hera and Zeus had a large balcony.

In the past, they would sit at the table and chairs on the balcony and look up at the moon in the sky.

In this world, the moon is not controlled by Selene but by a god named Wangshu.

However, he and Zeus had only heard his name but never seen it.

But it doesn't matter.

Make a pot of tea, put all the fresh meat mooncakes on the plate and put them on the table.

Poseidon took a piece of moon cake and gnawed it up, waiting for Zeus to deal with him.Anyway, he can stay anywhere now, but he can't stay anywhere when he goes back.

While thinking about whether Amphikrit had calmed down, he listened to the conversation between Zeus and Hera.

"Have you found Chaos?" Hera asked.

"No." Zeus said.

Zeus glanced at Poseidon sleepily, but heaved a heavy sigh without saying a word.

Hera said it was expected.

It has always been Chaos' nature to run away after flirting.

Both of them could have sent the trouble of Poseidon back through the power of time and space, but Chaos closed the time and space tunnel leading to that world.

Zeus felt that Chaos did it on purpose.

In fact, Chaos did it on purpose.

"Can I lose you?" Zeus looked at Poseidon and said sincerely.

Poseidon saw from his gaze that Zeus was serious.

"No." Poseidon refused him righteously.

"It's all because you, Anfei, are arguing with me every day. I have nowhere to go now, so you can only take me in." Poseidon said, and he said, "You are atonement."

Zeus really wanted to drive Poseidon out of the house and let him live on the streets at this moment.

During the period when Poseidon lived at home, Zeus did not expect that he would miss Chaos so crazily.

When Chaos sent back Poseidon, who was carrying large and small bags of local specialties, Zeus collapsed on the sofa with no image in relief.

"Finally gone..."

In order to watch over Poseidon, Zeus deliberately asked for a month's personal leave.

During this period, I walked around with him for a month, and explained all kinds of curious little problems that Poseidon faced with the new world.Feeling physically and mentally exhausted.

"Can't you coax me?" Zeus asked Hera who sat down next to him and picked up a paper book to read.

When he was with Poseidon, Hera happened to be on a business trip to other provinces and stayed there for half a month.

In his darkest and saddest time Hera was absent...

"Well, that's great." Hera said casually.

After all, the person who accompanied Poseidon was not him, so he didn't feel much.

It's still time to go to work, but there is one more person in the family.

Zeus, who was used to being treated so coldly by his partner, seemed to accept his fate and made a pot of tea for Hera and himself.

While pouring water, Hera's voice was suddenly heard.

"Do you think Chaos will throw another person here?"

Hearing Hera's words, Zeus shook his hand and poured the freshly boiled water into his hand.

"I think... probably not..." Zeus said with difficulty.

In the end, the young Zeus still underestimated Chaos' bad taste.

"Hello~" The blond beauty Aphrodite, wearing a new dress from D's house and stepping on red-soled high-heeled shoes, stood at the door and greeted Zeus and Hera.

Zeus: "..."

Hera: "No surprise."

After Poseidon and Aphrodite, Hera and Zeus ushered in Greek gods such as Hades, Persephone and so on.

"I think we should move," Zeus said.

"why?"

"Now it's not a home, it's a guest house."

"Do you think that if we move to Chaos, we won't be able to find us?" Hera asked.

"Try and talk."

The next day, the dragon Campe, who found the residence of Herazeus with the small note given by Chaos, knocked on the door but got no response, thinking whether he had found the wrong address.

In fact, the owner of this house has both run away.
