[Greek mythology] Queen of the Underworld

With the scepter in his hand, it means that he can run unimpeded in the underworld. Although Hades has never restricted his actions, since he got the scepter, when Hades occasionally talked to him, the words used to make him I have time to go out of the palace and have a look.

He couldn't take off the anklet of the queen's scepter. Hades told him that when he needed the scepter, the scepter would appear in his hands. Melos didn't have much divine power, and he was not enough to control the queen of the dead now. The body of the scepter.

But in Hades, he doesn't think he will encounter much danger, using the energy body is enough, and he still has the vines that followed him to Hades, so it doesn't matter much.

However, the scepter turned into an anklet and there were a few more small bells, which made him feel very helpless when he was walking. He once asked Hades about this, and Hades said that if Melos If he has more divine power, then he can indeed master the changes of the scepter, but it is a pity that Melos' divine power can be said to be the lowest in Olympus.

In other words, he could only bear such a sound.

"Can't you help me?" Melos asked a little frustrated, he pulled the bell on his anklet, although Hades said that many people have these anklets on their feet, and it is not surprising to have bells, but he still I think these things should be worn by girls, and many girls in later generations will also wear such anklets. When wearing high heels in summer, the anklets and shoes match each other, and the melodious sound of the bell is indeed a pleasing thing , it’s just that Melos has always been the one to admire and doesn’t want to practice it.

"Yes." Hades said lightly, before Melos was happy, he continued, "But I don't want to."

"Why?" Melos asked in surprise.

I saw Hardy holding up his feet, stroking the anklets on his feet with his hands, and then going all the way up the ankles.

Melos was so frightened that he quickly retracted his feet.

Ever since he got the scepter, Hades has become more and more unscrupulous, often kissing him without warning. Just now, he looked like he wanted to...

The anxious foot was pulled back, and Hades planted a kiss on his ankle.

Melos was too scared to move.

It was too difficult to maintain a position with one foot lifted, and the two of them were still on the bed at the time, which was very dangerous for him.

You know, the gods of Olympus are all immoral and chaste, and he really feels very dangerous.

The kiss on the ankle went all the way up until the other party kissed his thigh, and Melos finally said "no".

Hades squatted down, looked up at him, and then kissed Melos' slightly parted lips.

Lips and teeth mingled, breath intertwined, and Melos' brain went blank.

"Take it obediently, huh?" The other party whispered in his ear, Melos nodded in a daze, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that he had climbed on the other party's shoulder at some point, as if asking the other party It seems to continue.

From then on, Melos blushed whenever he saw Hades.

Fortunately, Melos was sleeping most of the time. He didn't know when Hades came back or when he left, but he was used to opening his eyes in a half-dream and half-waking, and there was a person lying beside him.

And those nightmares have never reappeared since he got the scepter. Even if he sometimes hears the cries of the undead, he will not be woken up again. I am used to the environment of Hades, but no matter what the reason is, this is a good thing.

The lake that Hades took him to before has become his favorite place, without him, he can wash in it, although he is now a god, and basically will not leave the apse of Hades' palace , but he probably still retains many habits of being a human being. When there is water, he still likes to take a dip in it.

The premise is that the water is not the water of the Styx.

"Your Highness." Melos soaked himself in the lake that day, and it didn't take long before he heard Akarali's voice.

He was almost taken aback.

"Your Highness the Queen." Akarali walked behind him and saluted him.

Melos soaked himself in the lake, leaving only one head on the lake. He was a little embarrassed, but he could still pretend to be calm: "Is there something wrong?"

"Something happened in Hades, and you need to deal with it. People have gathered in the temple, please go." Akarali said in a low voice.

"Me?" Melos pointed at himself and asked in surprise, "Why should I go?"

"The king was invited by the sea god to be a guest. Now there is something in the underworld, and the queen can only come to deal with it."

"But, I won't..." He has been in Hades for so long, and he has never been in contact with other people. He doesn't even know how to deal with what happened here in Hades. Why should he be asked to deal with it?

"Your Royal Highness." Akarali looked at him seriously, "You are the queen of Hades, you must be alone."

Seeing Akarali's expression, Melos fell silent.

Yes, he came to Hades instead of his sister to become the queen of Hades, so he is naturally the second master of Hades, since he needs the identity of Queen of Hades to protect himself, then he must do what Queen of Hades should do .

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and nodded: "I see, just wait for me."

Under the call of Melos, the vines far away from the Hades' palace quickly spread over. Countless beautiful flowers grew on the vines. The petals automatically fell off and floated in the water, automatically woven into beautiful floral yarns and gauze clothes, embellishing the delicateness of Melos. body of.

Although this kind of dress is a bit feminine, it is also very good at misleading others. Anyway, Persephone represents spring, and everyone who comes into contact with her knows that she loves flowers. Melos weaves gauze clothes with petals. No one doubts.

Melos stepped out of the water, and the gauze was stuck to his body, setting off his slightly childish face.

But he had to admit that even if it was just a boy's appearance, he was still so beautiful that even Akarali lost his mind.

"Let's go." Melos took a deep breath and said softly.

Akarari bowed his head, and Meros walked in front of him.

This was the first time that Meros came to the front hall of Hades Palace. There were not many people here, not even the maids. When Hades was away, the place looked even darker, and there were already people waiting here.

The arrival of Melos has added a lot of light to this place. Anyway, he is a god, even if he has no divine power, he is still a god.

Shakanochman frowned and looked at the people who were accompanied by Akarali. At first glance, he had already seen something was wrong, but he didn't think of it for a while.

And Melos looked around without a trace, and walked to his position under the guidance of Akarali-it was second only to the seat of Pluto, just to the left of the throne, slightly lower than the throne, slightly smaller Some.

The scepter of the Queen of Hades had already appeared in the hands of Melos. He sat down and looked at the people below with a blank expression—the throne was several steps higher than the hall, and Melos was completely looking down at the people below.

Akarali was standing beside him and winked at Shakanochman. Shakanochman understood what he meant and walked to his side.

Ask to see a woman, she is an undead, but she has the breath of a living person on her body, Akarali told Melos, if a person who should not have died appears in the underworld, then he is called a half-dead, such a person is either Either they used some method to enter Ming Penguin to request an audience with Pluto, or they were killed and had to appear here.

The former problem is easy to solve. Sometimes Pluto is not in Hades, so Pluto’s generals will help Pluto receive such half-dead souls, and send them back after asking the other party’s purpose, and report to Pluto after Pluto returns. However, Entering the underworld can easily affect the lifespan of living people, so even if someone knows this method, they rarely use it.

And another form of people is more difficult to deal with. Such undead will have very strong resentment, and such undead can easily be pulled into the bottom of the lake by the Styx River, and such a person cannot be reincarnated, because his life in the previous life Not used up.

Melos sat on the throne, but did not speak in order to look at the woman below.

Akarali leaned into Melos' ear: "She did not know what method she used to get to the underworld, and she cried bitterly in front of the palace day and night. This has never happened before, so she invited His Highness to come over."

"Your Highness, the Great Empress of the Underworld." The woman bowed to him, "Please accept the devout worship from humble humans."

"En." Melos didn't have much expression on his face, "Why do you cry day and night?"

He has not handled Hades' affairs for Hades, and he is not sure if Hades likes him to handle these matters. After all, in the time he lived, many people in power did not like others to challenge their authority, even their family members.

So he decided to talk less and ask less, and try to simplify his language as much as possible.

But his indifferent expression made the woman below a little timid, but she still said her request.

The woman was originally the wife of a king, with seven sons and seven daughters. Although the woman is usually arrogant, she is a loving mother. But when others praised her for having many children, she got carried away and taunted Leto, so she committed suicide disaster.

Melos listened for a long time, and finally knew what was going on.

The tragedy of Niobe, this painting was once released by the aesthetics teacher for them to appreciate when they were in college. The tragic image of the mother desperately protecting the last child and asking the gods in the sky to leave a child for her is too clear, so in After listening to the woman's narration, Melos remembered.

He was a little helpless.

It's not good for you to mess with anyone. You mess with a god. Although Leto is not the first wife of Zeus, but only the sixth wife of Zeus, as long as she is a god, she will not allow others to challenge her dignity.

Niobe mocked Leto, which caused Hutto to be furious and ordered Apollo and Artemis to kill her fourteen children. After all, it was the woman's arrogance that brought her children to death.
