[Greek mythology] Born to be arrogant

Apollo hugged her and let out a muffled laugh.

"Salary?" He leaned close to her ear, bit the translucent earlobe lightly, and teased maliciously: "But baby, I don't want Laomedon's salary, I want--yours Salary." As he spoke, he parted her long hair and branded a light kiss on her milky white skin.

Diana snorted twice like a mosquito, and tried hard to break free from Apollo's grasp, but it was in vain.

Apollo half propped up his body, his fingers slid all the way down her curvy back, until they landed on her ankles.Only then did he discover that Diana hadn't completely transformed.There is still no flesh and blood on the little toe of her left foot, and the small toe bone exposed is hard and white, with a slight silver light.

He held her ankle and kissed her lightly.

Diana exclaimed, and subconsciously wanted to pull away, but was held firmly by Apollo: "Don't move."

His two slender fingers with some calluses gently rubbed her toe bones, over and over again, his eyes were so soft that they could drain water.Diana was a little embarrassed, but she couldn't figure out what Apollo wanted to do, so she could only freeze her body and put her toes in his palm.After a while, there were already some signs of cramps.

She bared her teeth: "I, my feet are numb, let go."

Apollo didn't seem to hear it, but he put her left foot down a little bit, pinched her ankle with two fingers, and massaged it one by one. .”

Diana blushed suddenly.She knew that Apollo was referring to the period of her pregnancy, her ankles were often swollen, and she had to be rubbed by him almost every night before she could fall asleep peacefully.The strength of Apollo's hands was neither light nor heavy, and it relieved the numbness just right, and made her feel drowsy.

"Diana." Apollo's low voice echoed in the wooden house, "I'm afraid you will remain in this state for a while longer."

Diana's undead state has not been completely transformed, which must mean that Apollo himself is not complete.

Apollo almost subconsciously thought of the god of plague with bad luck. "Whoever Apollo falls in love with is unlucky, and whoever falls in love with him is even more unlucky", Eros joked at the beginning, but he had to completely divide himself into two halves, just to prevent Diana from being attacked by bad luck again.As for the last words that the God of Plague said to him, he didn't think much about it, and he didn't want to think about it too much.

"Apollo."

"Ok?"

"Yesterday...yesterday, I used the power of rules once. The power of rules is enough to frighten Zeus." Diana hesitated at first, but then she simply said, "At that time he asked me, 'This is Apollo Taught you'? I answered: 'Yes'."

Apollo froze for a moment.

Diana looked at him without blinking, and there was some inexplicable emotion in her pale glass-colored pupils.

Apollo lowered his head again, kneading her ankle gently, without expressing his opinion.He knew very well that Diana wanted him to take advantage of her to temporarily deter Zeus.In this way, he can stay quietly for at least 500 years without any disturbance.

but……

He was a little helpless and a little overwhelmed.

The current situation is actually a mess.He is the main god who wants to take the throne, and he is the main god who doesn't want to take the throne; he is the main god who has antagonized Zeus, and he is the main god who tries to make peace with Zeus; now... Now even Diana can't figure it out, he What exactly do you want.

Diana suddenly became a little apprehensive: "You... don't want me to do this?"

Apollo smiled wryly: "Yes. No."

Diana was stunned for a moment before she understood.

She gently pulled out her ankle, sat down next to Apollo, leaned into his arms, and said in a low voice: "I didn't think carefully about this matter. But now I'm afraid it's not just Zeus, even the gods... Apollo, I..."

Apollo stretched out his arms to hug her, and kissed her forehead lightly: "It's okay."

"But you just..."

"But I just needed some time to digest." He lowered his head, lifted her cheek, kissed the corner of her lips, and softened his voice, "It's not a bad thing. At least for a short time, Zeus You will be very grateful to me." He had previously roughly deduced what happened from the conversation between Death, Sleep and Hades.Diana not only deterred Zeus yesterday, but also deterred some titan gods who were about to move.Zeus, who is so busy now, may have to thank Diana, and "Apollo who looks more powerful than Diana".

Except for one thing.

If Zeus sensed a threat from Diana...

Apollo stroked her long hair, and his voice became softer: "How about resting for a night first? You haven't closed your eyes for a few days."

Diana nodded, leaned into his arms again, leaned in his arms, closed her eyes, and fell asleep after a while.

Apollo let her lie down comfortably, and gently tucked the corner of the quilt for her, and then walked out of the cabin a little tired.

A bright moon hung high in the night sky, and there were a few stars scattered around it, making it impossible to see the position of Aspirekius clearly.

He bent down and picked up the lyre that was lying by the door, and struck the strings at a strange frequency.The faint golden light rippled like water ripples, and along the direction of the music, it condensed into tiny but strange golden characters.The most puzzling thing is that although Apollo was playing the piano, there was not even a slight sound of the piano coming out. Diana was still sleeping peacefully, without any sign of being woken up.

The dark golden shadow slowly walked over from a distance, looking a little lonely under the moonlight.

"You recovered."

"Yes."

"Where's Diana?"

"She fell asleep. But things seem to be a little unexpected." Apollo said, sideways to make a path, "Her left little toe is still in the state of an undead."

The dark golden shadow froze slightly.

He went into the cabin and sat down on the edge of the bed.That invisible face was still covered by a dark golden mask, and the dark golden eyes were gradually stained with an intoxicating tenderness.

"Left foot...little toe?"

The God of Plague lifted the quilt, gently held Diana's ankle, and rubbed it carefully in the palm of his hand. He never left the small white and hard toe bone for a moment, and his eyes were full of nostalgia and love. cherish.

"One more thing." Apollo leaned against the door with a painful and tired expression, "Diana was in a difficult situation, and I was also in a difficult situation. I—— don't want to rebel."

The God of Plague curled his lips, but there was no smile in his eyes: "Rebellion? Do you think so?"

"At least so far, Zeus has been very suitable for that position." The tiredness in Apollo's eyes deepened, and he lowered his voice, repeating what Diana did yesterday.The God of Plague listened, his eyes gradually became strange, and finally he laughed softly: "She is even better than I imagined."

"Enough, you." Apollo was slightly displeased.

The God of Plague let out a soft "heh" and was suddenly stunned.Just now, at that moment just now, he actually smiled.

All his emotions stayed with Apollo, and his heart also stayed with Apollo.He—how can he laugh?

Apollo was also aware of this, and couldn't help but take a step forward, grabbing the plague god's shoulder, with a nervous look on his face:

"I think we need to have a good talk."

"Don't be busy." The plague god stopped him.

"You should be very clear that after using that powerful power, Diana will definitely become the focus of attention of the gods." The God of Plague tucked the quilt for Diana again, stood up and nodded to Apollo, and He walked out of the wooden house together before continuing, "...I want her to hide from the limelight for a while."

"Take shelter from the limelight?" Apollo repeated with some surprise, "What do you want her to do?"

"Turn her body in the moonlight, and then reincarnate her as a human." The God of Plague said indifferently, "In this way, she will be delayed for at least a hundred years. And a hundred years is enough Let's settle some issues. Yours, mine, ours, and Zeus's."

Apollo was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.

This may not be the best solution, but it is the only one at the moment.

His own differences have affected too many gods, and have involved too many... interests.

In addition, Diana's undead state that has not been fully transformed, the god of plague, no, it is him, it is the curse on him, the curse about love...

The most terrible thing is that the object of the curse is the goddess he fell in love with, and also the goddess who loved him...

Even if some memories are blurred, Apollo can still guess that some terrible and almost irreparable things happened before, which made him so strange, and there are so many strange gods around him, make peace.

The God of Plague said lightly, "Let's begin."

"Wait." Apollo interrupted him, "What if Diana objects?"

The God of Plague still said calmly: "I will convince her. But first, I have to find a suitable identity for her."

The most suitable status is, of course, a human priest under the protection of the sun god.

Apollo quickly found his high priest in the human world, and then issued an oracle: the sun god will give him a lovely daughter.And his daughter will be the future sun god priest.

It so happened that the high priest's wife was pregnant, and she named the unborn daughter Bryceis.

This strange and awkward name has no special meaning, but Apollo did not intend to give the reincarnated Diana a new name.Anyway, no matter how many times she reincarnates, she will always be his goddess of the moon.

But, as Apollo guessed, Diana became angry.
