[Greek mythology] Queen of the Underworld

Just because...the other party had a nightmare recently, the king left the matter of the palace and went to the queen?Shakanochman thought incredulously.

How could he remember that even if the queen had a splitting headache because of the Styx relationship, the king would only go to the queen after finishing the matter, and later because the queen yelled at the king, the king stopped going to the queen's palace , why now...

"Do you still remember the order the king gave before?" Akarali asked with a smile.

Shakanochman nodded.

Speaking of it, he always felt puzzled. This time when the queen came back, the king not only sent Akarali to take care of the queen, but even said that the queen's words were equal to his words, and no one was allowed to disrespect the queen. They must be open to the queen, which means that no one can stop the queen from going anywhere.

He once thought Wang was crazy.

"He's fine." Akarali was the first person after Hades to know that the queen was no longer Persephone, but he knew that once Melos became familiar with the environment of Hades, other people would soon be able to see her too. to the queen.

The king had already issued an order before, not allowing anyone to slander the queen behind his back, and he also wanted to keep the boy.

The top ten generals are Pluto's confidantes. Akarali has a good impression of Melos, so she doesn't mind helping Melos. Although Shakano Qiman has a bad temper, he is easy to get along with. He was very sincere, otherwise he would have been thrown into the bottom of the Styx long ago if he dared to ignore his rage at the king.

"What did you say?" Shakanochman looked at him in disbelief.

"He's fine." Akarali said again, "As long as you've seen him, you'll fall in love with him, and he'll be a well-deserved Queen of the Underworld."

"You're crazy." Shakanochman said blankly.

Akarali shrugged, turned and left without saying a word.

"Hey, make it clear." Shakanochman chased after him, trying to know more.

Akarali stopped in her tracks but did not turn around. Looking from her side, Shakanochman found that her expression was surprised but somewhat natural.

They walked near the palace of Hades before. At this moment, Sakanochiman followed Akarali's line of sight and could see their master slowly walking into the palace with a person in his arms. The black robe of Hades covered the man. , as if he was afraid that the other party would be woken up, he walked slower than usual. After he entered the palace, Akarali found that the vines of the queen's palace followed Hades to this palace. Hades had just entered the palace with his front feet, and their back feet It spread throughout the entire palace.

Those vibrant vines became the only decoration of the cold palace, adding a lot of vitality to this lifeless palace. Akarali pursed her lips, and she had a vague guess in her heart.

"This is..." Shakanochman didn't know this, he looked at the vines spreading in the palace with some surprise, and always felt a little unbelievable.

"I'll go back first." Akarali said calmly. Although the guess in her heart made her feel unbelievable, but if it was that boy, she took it for granted. Compared with Persephone, this boy is obviously more suitable for this place. After all, the beautiful and mischievous Persephone is out of place here.

"Hey, hey, you haven't answered my question yet, what are you hiding from me!" Shakanochman didn't let anyone go, he grabbed Akarali's hand.

"I can only give you one piece of advice." Akarali took his hand out of the opponent's hand and said calmly, "Even if there is any urgent matter in the future, don't trespass on the temple."

"What kind of advice is this?" Shakanochman stomped his feet and walked up to entangle the other party.

The two walked farther and farther, and the Hades Palace returned to silence.

Hades carried Melos all the way to his palace, turning a blind eye to the vines following him. He knew that this was the protection given to Melos by Demeter, the goddess of harvest. The identity of this young man was indeed too sensitive. Nothing bad.

Melos is the queen of the underworld, and it is impossible to hide in the palace all the time. He needs to do what the queen of the underworld should do, but the less people know that he is not Persephone, the safer he is. He should be glad that he did not Too many have seen Persephone.

Moreover, although the underworld is out of reach of Zeus, envoys often come. Although Persephone does not have a prominent position, there are quite a few people who know her.

After carrying him to the bed, he didn't let go of Melos, just let him lean in his arms. He didn't care when Akarali said that he couldn't sleep well because of the cries of the undead. Anyone who came to Hades would have to face such a predicament once. Compared to Besephone who screamed because of those cries, Melos was much better.

It's just that he didn't expect that he would have nightmares because of this and wake up again and again. He didn't realize that something was wrong until Akarali appeared in front of him again and told him that Melos looked very haggard.

When he saw Melos again, he was so haggard that he was surprised, and the nightmare invaded him, so that when he was holding him in his arms, he was still frowning, and then woke up without warning.

Looking at Melos with a dull expression, he suddenly remembered the scene when he first met him, the person who was not sure about the future, even if he was a little flustered because of his appearance, even if he knew that he was likely to send him to Austria. Lympus was handed over to Zeus, and he never showed a humble prayer.

He was born proud.

But the person who caught his attention was haggard because of the cries of the undead.

He couldn't deny that seeing Melos like this made his heart ache.

Akarali told him that this little guy was extremely lethargic. He couldn't figure it out at first, but now that he was holding the boy, he suddenly thought of the key point. Persephone was already a beautiful woman, but this little guy still is a teenager.

He has the divine power of Demeter, but he does not inherit Demeter's ability.

Many years ago, the prophecy of the Great Mother caused Zeus's anger to spread throughout Olympus. Demeter's ability to hide this boy in Olympus for so many years may be inseparable from the boy's appearance as a minor.

Because of various taboos, he became a god without much divine power, and became an unknown existence.

He lives the same time as mortals.

But even so, Hades still wanted to take this boy into his arms and give him the protection he could, maybe because of pity, or maybe because of love, who knows.

Hades lowered his head and planted a kiss on the other's forehead.

May you always be so proud that you will not bow your head to anyone.

Melos felt something strange, he gradually opened his eyes, and what caught his eyes was Hades' handsome but indifferent face.

Melos widened his eyes and felt the hand around his waist. Only then did he realize that he was really not dreaming. He did wake up once because of a nightmare, and Hades was by his side at that time.

"Are you awake?" Harris asked softly.

"You... Pluto..." Melos hesitated for a while, but didn't know what to say.

"What?" Hades looked down at him.

Melos moved his body a little uncomfortably, and found that the other party was hugging him tightly, but...it was very comfortable.

"Why are you here..." Maybe it was because the first meeting was so impressive, and Melos was subconsciously defensive about Hades, so he asked cautiously.

"Akarali told me you had a nightmare," Hades said. "You look bad."

Normal people who are continuously frightened by nightmares and cannot sleep are likely to have various diseases that need to see a doctor. It’s fine for him to be a little haggard, Melos thought helplessly.

"I'm now..." It's okay...

"It's my fault." The other party put his hand on his head and let him lean on the other's shoulder, "It won't happen in the future."

"Ah?" Forgive him for not understanding what the other party was saying, Melos was helpless, but the next moment he noticed that this was not his room, "This is... where?"

"My palace." Hades said softly.

"Your..." Palace?Melos almost jumped up, why did he come to Hades' palace inexplicably?

"Living here in the future, the cries of the undead won't affect you." Although he knew that it was the best choice for him to adapt to those environments as soon as possible, but looking at this man's haggard appearance, Hades really couldn't bear it.

"Live... live here?" It's not what he thought...

"What?" Hades raised his eyebrows, looking at him intently.

"Shouldn't this be the palace of Hades?" Melos asked in a low voice.

"You are the queen of Hades, aren't you?" the other party asked back.

Melos choked.

That's what he said, but he didn't realize it at all!He has always felt that he and Hades are actually trading with each other. The underworld needs a queen, and he needs to avoid Zeus. Aren't they... a cooperative relationship?

Melos was thinking about the chances that if he proposed to go back to the palace of the underworld, Hades would hold him on the bed and teach him the "obligations" of the queen of the underworld. Combining Persephone's words and The story he saw in the myth and what happened when he first met the other party, Melos swallowed the words honestly.

Hades kept looking at Melos, seeing all the changes in this guy's face, and thought it was funny but didn't make a sound, until the other party looked a little frustrated, but he was a lot more honest, and he was sure that the other party should accept it. With his arrangement, the corners of his mouth finally raised uncontrollably.

"Rest for a while." He said to Melos, "When you recover, I will take you to see something."
