[Greek mythology] Queen of the Underworld

"I don't agree." Leto said coldly.

What Leto said made Zeus and Hera look at her.

"Niobe should pay for her recklessness and stupidity."

"Then what do you want to do?" Hera leaned on her chair and looked at her leisurely.

"I can't accept that Hades ignores my opinions, especially Persephone, who was just a little spring god in Olympus."

"But she is the Empress of the Underworld now." Hera said, and then she seemed to think of something, she turned her head and asked Zeus, "What do you think?"

"Things in the underworld never need to change because of anyone," Zeus said, "My indifferent brother has returned to the underworld, but he has not made any reprimands for Persephone's behavior, Leto, you should understand His attitude."

"If you order him."

"Enough." Zeus frowned. "I don't need you to teach me what I want to do."

Hera looked at Leto with a sarcastic smile on her lips.

"Honey, I don't have any opinion on your handling." Hera said with a smile.

She wraps Zeus better than anyone else, and she understands his temper. Zeus is romantic and affectionate, a woman who can give the best to herself, no matter whether the other party is hoping for a beautiful appearance, or hoping to stay in Olin Pease, but Zeus is the king of the gods after all, no one can challenge his authority, and no one can dictate his decisions.

Hera is a smart woman.

When the Great Mother decided to let Zeus marry Hera, she knew that they would be the most suitable couple, because Hera loved Zeus wholeheartedly, all her jealousy and hatred were all born of Zeus, she had the courage Dealing with many lovers of Zeus, she even dared to say that if she wanted to attack Leto, even if Zeus got angry again, she would not turn against her for it. She has the ability and right to interfere with Zeus' emotional life, but Hera never interferes Order of Zeus.

Whether it is appointing Hermes as the messenger of the gods, or promising that Artemis will not marry for life before she speaks out, even if Hera is dissatisfied with this, it is Zeus' decision, and Hera is just in silence.

She knows what she should and shouldn't meddle in.

Bringing Persephone into Hades has already gone according to his own wishes. No matter how high Persephone's status is now, no matter how much Persephone has changed, she will never return to Orsephone. Lympus, she will be left in Hades forever.

And Hades is a place beyond the reach of Zeus' forces.

As long as Zeus can't touch it, Hera doesn't care what she looks like.

So she sat leisurely on her queen's seat, and looked at Leto contentedly.

Apollo and Artemis are indeed outstanding, but this does not mean that Leto has the qualifications to dictate Zeus's decision.

Hera squinted at Zeus, and then covered the sneer at the corner of her mouth.

As long as Persephone can no longer appear in front of Zeus, she doesn't care what the little girl is doing in the underworld.

As Hera expected, Leto could not interfere with Zeus's decision at all. Apollo and Artemis had already seen that something was wrong, and they held Leto back.

Leto was not a fool to be able to give birth to two children for Zeus and live under Hera's nose for so many years.

She closed her mouth.

Although she was faintly unwilling in her heart, she didn't speak any more.

The dissatisfaction in her heart comes not only from the fact that Niobe can get her own child again, but also from the resentment that Persephone, who was just a little spring god before, ignored her wishes.

Putting aside the turbulent waves on Olympus for the time being, Melos was relieved that he didn't wait for Hermes to appear when he returned to Hades.

Hades didn't say a word about his worries, maybe because he knew that even if he comforted him, it wouldn't have much effect-not to mention Hades was never a comforter.

"Pluto." Melos, who was freed from worry about Hermes' possible return, walked to the other side while Hades was not going to the front hall to deal with the matter.

Hades was writing something at the time, when he heard Melos' voice, he stopped the quill in his hand and looked up at him.

"Can you...can you hide the color of my hair for me?" Melos looked at his hair, "My sister's hair is golden." He didn't like wearing a veil all day long, although it was said The veil exudes a light floral fragrance.

Hades looked at him for a while, then lowered his head: "That's fine," he said casually, "There's no need to hide."

"But what if Hermes comes again." Melos said distressedly, "I don't want to hide it, but I'm worried..."

"Hades will protect you." Hades interrupted him.

Hades...will protect him?

Melos frowned, really not knowing what Hades meant.

Just when he was wondering, Hades put down the pen in his hand and pulled him to his side, and let him sit on his lap.

Melos was a little uncomfortable, but he didn't move.

"You are the queen of Hades, remember?" the other party whispered in his ear.

Melos nodded.

During this period of time, not only Hades, but Akarali often said this in his ear, and after dealing with the matter of Minta and Niobe, Melos finally realized that he is the queen of Hades .

But Melos didn't understand why Hades would bring this up.

"This is your world, and you have the right to decide what others see." Hades reminded him.

It took Melos a long time to realize what the other party meant.

He has been recognized by the scepter of the Hades, and he is a well-deserved Queen of the Hades. If so, he naturally has the right to control the Hades.

Just like before he lied to Hermes about the Pomegranate.

On the road from the human world to the underworld, the dark road grows the pomegranate, which is probably the best plant in the underworld. If you eat it, no matter whether it is a dead undead or a surviving god, They will all be left in Hades.

If they just eat half of it, then what’s the point? They can leave after staying for a while at most. If they eat a whole one, then they will be trapped in the underworld forever. The gods know this, but humans don’t.

However, there is one thing that only Hades, who is the king of Hades, and Meros, who is the queen of the underworld, know, that is, as the masters who control the Hades, Hades actually has no effect on them.

Even other people living in Hades don't know about this matter, let alone Hermes.

Although he often came to the underworld, he didn't know the key to it. Even Zeus couldn't touch the secrets of the underworld.

The identity of the queen of the underworld really opened the door for Melos.

At this moment, Hades reminded him of this, and Melos remembered.

He is the queen of the underworld, so he has the ability to control himself in the eyes of others.

Even if his divine power is not enough, he has the scepter of the queen of the underworld in his hand.

Thinking about this, Melos finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Hades watched his expression change, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he closed it again when Melos regained consciousness.

"That is to say, my previous worries were unnecessary!" Melos rubbed his forehead. If he had known that he could use this identity and the scepter of the Queen of Hades, why would he have worried for so long!

"I told you not to worry." Hades patted his wrist, "You didn't listen."

"It's you who didn't make it clear!" Melos snorted, but he wasn't angry. He looked like he had finally let go of a stone in his heart, and he was in the mood to act like a baby to Hades.

But Hades didn't want to puncture his little thoughts. Melos was probably a little lazy after letting go of his heart, but Hades was happy for him to be so petty.

And Melos finally felt relieved after getting his answer, and wanted to get up and leave.

But Hades didn't let him go.

Melos raised his head helplessly.

The other party also looked at him, but Melos had never been able to see too much emotion from the other party's eyes.

"I... still have something to do."

"kindness?"

"And I think you have something to do too." Melos glanced at the other party's desktop, he really thought the other party should be busy.

"Not urgent."

But I'm in a hurry...

Melos thought very helplessly.

"I've been working hard in the forest for a long time, and finally a tree is willing to bloom. I have to go and have a look." The most he inherited from his mother is to let plants get close to him, and this closeness With the help of the Scepter of the Underworld, maybe he can make the plants in the grove bloom and bear fruit.

Just take out the branches, and it will be so beautiful there. What if it blooms and bears fruit?

The Goddess of Harvest is different from the plant gods, who can make plants sprout out of thin air, because the plant god itself represents the plants themselves, and Demeter's ability is only to make plants bloom and bear fruit. There is a big difference between the two The ability that Melos inherited from Demeter can only make the withered trees sprout again, blossom and bear fruit, and Melos feels that he seems to be one step closer to this.

At least he did see the plants in the grove blooming before.

"As long as you're here, they won't have any accidents." Hades seemed to think of something, he let go of Melos, but he stood up immediately.

"What's wrong?" Melos looked at him in surprise.

"Take you to see the underworld." Hades said.

what?

The underworld is a mass of darkness. There is no light here all year round. Even the light that leaks in when the gate of the underworld is opened will be swallowed by the darkness in an instant. Is there anything to see?

And hasn't Akarali already taken him to many places?

Hades saw his doubts. He bent down and put his forehead against Melos's. His low and magnetic voice carried an irresistible temptation: "Have you ever tried to look down on the underworld from the sky?"
