[Greek mythology] Queen of the Underworld

Melos didn't know what happened in the God Realm, and he didn't know that Demeter had completely changed in the eyes of others, but if he knew, then he would only think that what his mother did was right. For Ross, he really didn't want his mother to accept it.

As the sister of Zeus and one of the gods of Olympus, his mother has reasons and is qualified to be high above her.

Hades hasn't returned from Apollo yet, and he doesn't know if it's because every brotherhood meeting takes so long or he feels relieved to leave the affairs of Hades to Melos.

Akarali told him that although Hades is not in Hades, the top ten generals have their own way of transmitting information to ensure that Hades can always know the movement of Hades.

A woman in the human world crying day and night in front of the palace of the underworld is a big event. Hades couldn't possibly have known about it. He must have also got the way Melos dealt with this matter, but no news came.

Melos didn't know how many days had passed. There was no time passing in Hades. There was basically no difference between day and night. Melos just felt that he fell asleep and woke up and slept several times. According to the time of the human world, at least he came here Two or three days.

Hades still didn't respond.

The two generals he sent to follow Niobe, Shakanochman and Gakbel, have returned. They watched the woman burn the paper and returned to Hades to make sure everything was safe, and brought them back to the human world. rumors.

"Everyone is saying that the queen is noble and indifferent. Although you are a little unkind, you are surprisingly fair." Akarali said with a half-smile, "You seem to want others to treat you like this from the beginning?"

Melos smiled and said nothing.

He remembered that there was also a record in Greek mythology that Persephone had been cold and ruthless since she became the queen of the underworld, but she would occasionally speak for humans, which was completely different from the record when she had not yet entered the underworld.

When he received Niobe, it was just because he didn't want people to see any difference, so he tried not to let his emotions affect his judgment, and he still understood the reason why he said more mistakes, so he tried not to Will ask too much, and only speak when the verdict is passed.

But I didn't expect that it would become like this.

But that's good too, after all, the current rumors are the same as the information he saw in Greek mythology, so he can still tell himself that he played his sister very successfully and did not deviate from what was written in the book.

But... It is said that Persephone had more than one lover... He was very curious about how Hades would react if he competed with a human woman for a lover.

Melos curled his lips to drive these unrealistic thoughts out of his mind. Myths are myths after all. He said to himself that his future life would definitely not follow the myths. , but at this very moment, he truly exists in this world.

The grove of Hades has become his favorite place. For some reason, his supernatural power can be displayed in this place. Normally, he has to use the scepter given by his mother to let the divine power act on plants, but in the grove, he only needs to Using a little of his divine power, the plants here can grow as he wishes.

"This place has withered for many years." Gakbel walked behind him without knowing when, "Since the king came to the underworld, this place has been slowly withering."

When Hades left, his confidant took away three people, four of whom he had never seen before, and the remaining three. Although Shakanochman had a bad temper, he was exceptionally able to deal with many things calmly. Hardy Si left him to let him deal with the minor matters of Hades, and then find Melos for major matters-Merros finally knew why he was so free when Hades was not around.

The remaining two people, Gakbel and Akarali, who are the most powerful among the top ten generals, were left to protect Meros.

"An envoy may come to Hades at any time, and His Highness may have to think of a way to deal with it at that time." This is what Akarali told him.

Melos nodded.

After all, Hermes had met Persephone.

"This is why Hades needs a Queen of the Underworld." Akarali took Gakbel's words, "The power of the Hades is not enough to maintain the operation of the entire Hades. A world of its own."

"An independent world?" Melos turned around in surprise and looked at the two people behind him.

"Your Highness, why do you think that the gods of Olympus can visit Lord Poseidon in person, but if they want to come to the underworld, they must send an envoy to send a message in advance, and they can only enter the underworld after the king approves?" Akarali Said with a sneer.

Melos touched the bracelet on his wrist reflexively, and he thought of Demeter.

Demeter lost Persephone and searched frantically, but failed to enter the underworld after learning about Persephone...

In the end, it was Zeus who told Hades to send Persephone back.

why……

Demeter can go into Hades to find Hades. After all, she is the sister of Zeus and Hades, even if she uses half of her divine power to seal Meros, but she wants to enter the underworld, not to mention it is easy, but she should There is no great difficulty.

"It is precisely because the Hades and the Queen of Hades are in the Underworld, so no one can shake the Underworld." Akarali said proudly, and then she bent down to Melos, "Thank you for coming, becoming the most powerful in the Underworld." barrier."

This is... why Pluto needs a queen?

Hades is strong enough to keep Hades out of the control of Zeus, but not enough to maintain everything in Hades, but there is Hades, no matter whether Hades is strong or weak, as long as Hades scepter admits him, as long as he has Godhead, then the underworld will be completely out of Zeus's control, but they did not expect that although Persephone picked the holy flower of the underworld, she is not the most suitable person for the underworld...

Melos stroked the sprouting branches with his hands, and suddenly thought that he and Persephone were twins, could it be...

"Your Highness." Shakano Qiman walked over, "The person who passed the passage to Hades without authorization has been found."

Melos turned his head to look at him, knowing very well that this matter must be handled by himself, after thinking about it, he asked, "Who is it?"

"It's a maid who served the king before, Mingta."

"Before?"

Akarari leaned into Melos' ear: "After you came to Hades, the king sent away the maids around him to ensure that you will not be disturbed."

Melos nodded.

He reached down a branch and sat down on it.

The originally slender branches gradually became as thick as an adult's arm, and then slowly rose.

"I'll see her here, I don't need to go to the front hall."

Melos said so.

Shakanochman froze for a moment, then nodded, and then left.

Melos swayed his feet casually on the tree trunk, and the bell on the ankle chain made a pleasant sound, but he didn't intend to take out the scepter of the queen of the dead.

His attitude was obvious, he was just a maid, not worthy of him going to the front hall to receive her, nor worthy of taking out the Queen of Hades scepter.

The branch he was sitting on suddenly sprouted lush branches and leaves, and after a while even the tree was flourishing.

Melos patted the tree trunk under him with a smile, and said, "No need, this is my territory."

This is my territory, and I don't need to hide from people.

The leaves blocking him went elsewhere, so when Shakano Qiman came here with his maid Mingta, he saw Melos clearly.

"You are not Persephone!" she screamed.

Melos frowned, and a vine rose from the ground, hitting the opponent's knee hard.

"No wonder Hades drove you away from him. With your attitude, you are not a qualified maid." Melos leaned against the tree trunk beside him and looked at her leisurely.

Mingta, he remembered this person. According to Greek mythology, she used to be the maid of Hades. She always thought that she could become the Queen of Hades. After Persephone came to Hades, she insulted Persephone and said to others Persephone is not as beautiful as her. She said that Persephone is not as docile as her, and even threatened to throw Persephone out. Finally, because of various evil deeds, she was trampled into ashes by Persephone, but haha Diss took pity on her, and mint grass grew from her ashes.

Melos sneered, for this kind of person, stepping into ashes would be cheap for her.

"Who are you! Did Persephone ask you to come, she feels ugly and dare not see people, right?" Mingta screamed and twisted her face.

Melos frowned at his cry. You know, even when he was awakened by Styx's cry, those voices were not so terrifying.

"Is this your attitude towards Her Majesty the Queen of the Underworld?" Shakanochman was not as calm as Meros, and he was very satisfied with how Meros dealt with Niobe, so he felt that this person was better than Persephone , the stubborn Shakano Qiman naturally wants to protect Meros.

So he slapped Mingta hard on the mouth.

Mingta let out a miserable scream.

"I am the king's most beloved maid. If you treat me like this, when the king comes back, you will be thrown into the bottom of the river Styx and you will suffer day and night!" She roared hysterically. Even if she was sent out of the palace of Hades, she still Dreaming that he can become the Queen of Hades.

She always believed that Pluto would return to him.

Melos laughed: "You are, if Hades came back here and knew that you told humans the way to enter the underworld while he was away, would he punish me first, or would he punish you first?"
