[Greek mythology] Born to be arrogant

Diana pursed her lips tightly and did not speak, feeling a little wetness in her eye sockets.

"Go on." Apollo slightly loosened his grip on her, "Koronis, go on."

She closed her eyes, shook her head, and said no.Now there is no telling how many pairs of eyes are looking at them. Speaking out will make Apollo die without knowing how to die.

The fiery breath came closer, and Apollo's low voice echoed in her ears: "Don't tell me, you are worried that Zeus will notice the abnormality here, and then he will punish me for it."

"What if I say... yes?"

The hand resting on her neck gradually moved down, finally resting on her waist, and then came Apollo's voice almost gnashing his teeth: "You think exactly the same as her, exactly the same! Impossible...Kronis, Don't play this hard-to-get game. I've silenced this place and the outside world. Go on, Colonis. Go on."

"One of the responsibilities of the sun god is to patrol the sky all year round."

"Go on."

"Zeus is guarding against you, so he gave you this high-ranking but busy position, allowing you to survey the sky during the day and work at night, so you don't have time to rebel against him. Once you share the power of the sun god with Helios slot, and every year you'll free up at least half of your time, maybe all of it."

"Go on—"

"The Moon God can make [-] phases of the moon out of the mud of the Milky Way, but there is nothing in the world that can replace the sun."

"Go on!"

"So this is your only..." She couldn't continue, she turned her head and bit her lower lip tightly, feeling some hot liquid from her eyes dripping onto the pillow.

Apollo laughed almost maniacally.

He gradually lowered his body, wanting to kiss her, but just before touching her, he slammed his fist hard against the wall.

"Koronis, you really look like her, so much that I almost couldn't help admitting my mistake."

"Kronis, I will restore your light and give you endless life and youth."

"Remember, don't mention to me that you are her. She is a unique existence, an existence that you will never be able to reach. Otherwise, I will crush your soul and body together, and make you disappear in this world forever .”

He said almost cursing, his slightly sweaty palms covered her eyes.After a slight stabbing pain, she felt the dazzling light again.

The scene in front of me gradually became clear.

Apollo leaned over to look at her, his bright golden eyes were flushed with blood, slightly damp.

He cried?

She wanted to tell him that she was not dead.

She wanted to tell him that she didn't like him being caught in this endless painful memory and crazy about her.

She wanted to raise her hand and gently wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

But she can't say it, and she can't do it.Once she did this, Apollo would definitely crush her from body to soul without leaving any trace, resulting in even more irreparable consequences.

He always walks the talk.Whether it was when I was a child or now.

The only thing she can do is to slowly, little by little, awaken the emotions and reason that have been sealed in his body by him, and awaken the God of Light that she is most familiar with.

Then tell him that she has always been, has always been by his side, and has never left.

Whether in the past, present, or future.

"Colonis, I want to tell you a secret."

Apollo stroked her long hair almost tenderly, as if comforting the most unforgettable lover.

"Even without Ramses, without that bet, I would do the same thing. Ramses wants to use me, so why am I not using him? I use him to highlight my ignorance and madness, let them, Zeus , lower your vigilance."

"Zeus, he has been guarding against me for a long time. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that the son of Helios just drove the sun god chariot into the sky, and the Pegasus, which has not had any accidents in billions of years, immediately broke free from the rein and rushed out. The sky orbit, causing the sun to crash? Zeus recalled me almost at the same time, and ordered me to take over the position of the sun god immediately without the decision of the gods?"

"As you said, if I am the god of light and the god of the sun, I really don't have time to rebel against him. You know it, and Zeus knows it too."

Apollo looked down at her, and there was some indescribable pain and hatred in his golden eyes.

"I, hate, Zhou, Si."

Hate him for taking her life.

----

The night was very heavy.

A faint golden light shrouded the snow-white cloth curtain, allowing Diana to clearly see everything outside the light, but the outside world could not peep into it.Daphne had left, and the servants had disappeared.She looked sideways, and Apollo had one arm on her waist, breathing deeply and deeply, sleeping deeply.

She couldn't help feeling a little distressed.

God has always slept very lightly, and he is still full of energy even though he has been sleepless for hundreds of millions of years.But Apollo’s brows and eyes are full of exhaustion, it seems that he has never had a good night’s sleep in more than 5000 days and nights, and the terrible nightmare has been entangled with him, causing him pain and self-blame.

She wanted to hug him and kiss his eyes, but she never dared to do so.

She knew Apollo would be awakened by her.

Apollo, who fell into a crazy nightmare and couldn't wake up, sealed all his emotions and rationality in the depths of his soul, leaving almost an empty shell, would be shocked by her daring and reckless, and even she would do something Unimaginable terrible things to come.

She knew Apollo as well as he knew herself too well.

She could only lie quietly in his arms, looking at him, thinking about all possible countermeasures for the next step.

It was getting brighter, but Apollo still showed no signs of waking up.

She called "Your Highness" very softly, and saw him open his eyes suddenly, his golden pupils were still emotionless.

Diana looked away slightly, forcing herself not to meet his eyes.

"It's dawn, Your Majesty Apollo."

Apollo looked at her quietly, neither speaking nor moving.

Looking down from his angle, he could only see her long and slightly curled eyelashes, which were mixed with gold and silver in the dim light of dawn.

His eyes were focused and fiery, filled with indescribable pain and sorrow, faintly hollow, clearly looking at another person through her, no, God.

His...Diana.

He raised his hand slightly, wanting to touch those beautiful eyes, but just before touching her, he put down his hand.

She is not Diana.

Even though she is more and more like Diana, even though she is more and more like Diana from head to toe, inside and out, but she is not Diana.

Diana is dead.She is long dead.left him forever.

Apollo closed his eyes in pain, raised his hand, let go of the girl in his arms, and gradually disappeared into the air.

Sensing his disappearance, Diana raised her head to see the golden light disappearing into the sky, and sat up with the quilt rolled up, feeling a little uncomfortable.

They were all neatly dressed, and Apollo just held her and slept all night without doing anything.

She knew that Apollo would be sad because of her disappearance, but she didn't expect that he would close himself because of this, and become completely different, becoming conceited, paranoid, violent, suspicious, and unreasonable...

No wonder he couldn't hear her prayers at Delphi.

He must have subconsciously believed that Diana was already dead.Anyone who calls himself Diana is unforgivable.

He said he hated Zeus.

But that obviously...it has nothing to do with Zeus...well...maybe it was indeed Zeus who slipped his hand...

"your Highness!"

A man dressed as a palace servant almost crawled in, shrank and knelt, not daring to raise his eyes to look at the princess who had been favored by the God of Light, but his voice was shaking like chaff: "Your Highness, your A traitor... No, my companion, Pharaoh Ramses, has already brought people to the palace aggressively, and will take you away no matter what!"

Diana couldn't help but laugh.

The little servant accidentally caught a glimpse of her half-smile, and was so frightened that he couldn't even cry.He had observed how terrifying Ramses was at a close distance, and he accidentally chopped off his hands and feet and threw them into the sea to feed the sharks!Her Royal Highness, as the concubine of the God of Light and the first priest of the Sun God in the world, is about to be snatched away, how can she be so... calm... calm... ah...

The trembling little servant couldn't calm down anymore.

"Okay." He heard the princess get off the bed calmly, a pair of white jade feet calmly stretched into the shoes, and then walked out calmly step by step, and then, the princess's extremely calm voice came from afar : "I'm going to meet Ramses."

The little servant shook as if he was about to cry, and fainted from fright, and was then forcibly dragged out by two tall palace guards.

Really, how could you faint in the palace where the God of Light descended?It's just too restless!If you want to faint, wait until you get out and then faint again.

Diana walked into the palace of Thessaly, without the slightest feeling of powerlessness and shyness after being favored by God, on the contrary, she seemed a little preoccupied.

King Felekis had already placed a hammer next to the throne, and was going to knock on his precious daughter's head after he had cleaned up the god of death in front of him to see whether it was crushed by the door or kicked by the donkey.

Ramses randomly pulled a chair and sat opposite King Felekis, stroking the whip carelessly, as if he was ready to whip the king at any moment.

Diana saluted King Felekis and Ramses respectively, and the first words she spoke were: "I will go to Egypt with you."

King Felekis immediately jumped up, pointing at Diana trembling in horror; Ramses was very calm, as if he had expected Diana to say this, and only asked her, "When are you leaving?"

"After tonight, I will go with you after I tell the Sun God." Diana replied, "I don't want him to take his anger out on the entire Thessaly Kingdom because of our agreement."

Ramses put away his cynical expression: "Are you so sure that he will let you go?" Let his priest, his favorite concubine in the world, go to a strange country with a strange king?

A hint of helplessness appeared in Diana's eyes: "I will try my best."

Perhaps because of the change of the sun god, the sun today is much hotter than usual, and the sky survey took half an hour longer than usual.When the sun finally sinks to the west coast, the crooked moon has slowly risen in the east.

Diana came to the Temple of the Sun, and expressed her wish to go to Egypt to Apollo according to the secret language between the priest and the main god.

When her voice reached Olympus, Apollo had already returned to the newly built Temple of the Sun, sitting on the empty throne, concentrating on making dolls out of river mud from the Milky Way.

According to legend, the earliest human beings were made by Prometheus out of the soil on Olympus.Therefore, the clay puppets made by Apollo, without exception, all became human.

They are all waist-length silver hair, have good faces, and a pair of glazed eyes are quiet and clear.

They laughed or made noise, or stood or sat, or simply blindfolded his eyes with their hands presumptuously, and breathed softly in his ears.

He's not annoyed, not at all.

Every clay puppet is Diana in his memory.So delicate and beautiful, yet so cold and dull.

Diana, who can laugh, will not be sad because of his departure; Diana, who can cry, will not laugh because of his coaxing; little girl.

Every fragment of broken memory is in the palm of his hand, and in the river mud flooded with silver light, it becomes the girls around him.

He quietly listened to Princess Thessaly's statement and said hello quietly.

The princess Thessaly in the world seemed to be frightened by him, and there was no reply for a long time.

A pair of soft hands wrapped around his waist, followed by a familiar cry: "Who is she? Who is she?"

Apollo gently brushed her long hair, and the tears in her eyes were reflected in his bright golden eyes: "Are you angry?"

She shook her head, and instinctively hugged him and cried, as if she had suffered a great grievance, but she couldn't say anything.

Apollo sighed softly.

At that moment just now, he actually had such a little bit of extravagant hope, that this puppet that can only cry, had even a little bit of emotion called "jealousy"...

Unfortunately, no.

Nothing.

She was just a clay puppet of Diana who was squeezed out by him, who was wronged and cried loudly in his memory... that's all.

"Your Highness."

The human princess Thessaly finally found her voice, "Anyway, this is the agreement I made with Ramses, please don't anger the whole of Thessaly because of my audacity."

Apollo laughed loudly, rubbing the long silver hair of the clay puppet in his arms vigorously, with tears in his eyes.

How could she be angry?

She's the only one in the world... that allows him to lie to himself... that Diana is alive... ah...

"Apollo!"

A goddess in armor with an angry face broke into the Temple of the Sun, and a long scroll full of formulas crashed into Apollo's arms.

"How can the sky and the earth be both balls? It is impossible for the sky and the earth to be both balls!"

Apollo picked up the scroll, and gently comforted the clay puppet in his arms who was hurt by the scroll.But the clay puppet cried louder.

"Athena."

He didn't look up, but there was a touch of blood red in his golden eyes.

"Don't forget, if you say 'impossible', then you are one step closer to deep sleep."

Athena got angry, snatched the scroll in his hand, walked away angrily, and trampled a few floor tiles in the temple.

As long as the derivation process is logical, it will definitely not trouble her!

Facts once again prove that the goddess of wisdom and war is indeed a true academic master with a much higher IQ than EQ.
