[Greek mythology] Queen of the Underworld

After Hades went to the underworld to find Poseidon, for a whole week, the newspapers no longer reported the strange death time of young women, and the days seemed to be peaceful.

This is not like Zeus's style, and Meros is deeply puzzled by this.

Hades didn't care much about this. He kissed Melos' neck and said casually, "They are not fools."

Knowing that there are people who specifically attack the gods, no matter whether they are powerful or not, safety must be the first priority. After all, not only them, but other people must have noticed that something is wrong with Olympus.

Zeus may not know how to restrain himself, but others must know how to hide themselves well. There are not many gods like them appearing in the crowd.

"But..." Melos pushed the person on top of him, but unfortunately, his hands and feet were weakened by the opponent's series of movements, and he couldn't push him no matter what, "I'm telling you seriously."

He was so angry that he patted Hades on the shoulder. Hades raised his head, not annoyed by his actions, but raised his eyebrows, then lowered his head and continued with his unfinished business.

"Can't you think of something serious this early in the morning?" Melos gasped.

"Early in the morning?" The other party seemed to laugh, and he was noncommittal about his words. Only then did Melos remember that for him and Hades, it doesn't matter whether it is early or not, because they are used to living in the underworld. Concerned about the passage of time.

In other words, for the gods, there is no so-called concept of time at all, even if the world is different now.

It was already noon when Hades and Melos had time to pay attention to Artemis' visit.

"Here." Artemis held something like a document, "I can only help you get here, don't forget what you promised me."

Melos took the message from Artemis and nodded to her.

"By the way," Artemis suddenly remembered something, "I met Athena before, but I didn't say anything to her. I remind you to be careful if Athena is still on Zeus' side." She didn't When Melos said something else, he disappeared in front of them.

"Athena..." Melos touched his chin. She didn't know Athena well. Although there are many stories about her in your mythology, Melos himself has never been in contact with Athena. From his On the day he opened his eyes, he went to the underworld, and he did not participate in what happened between Olympus and the human world. Even though Athena was quite active in the human world, it had nothing to do with him.

However, Athena did not participate in the jihad that year, at least in the melee in the underworld. Melos didn't know whether she was unwilling to come or the things on Olympus held her back, or she was busy. In short, Meros has never met this famous goddess.

This heroic goddess is not easy to deal with.

Because he has never been in contact with it, Melos has no good way to deal with the appearance of this goddess.

At that time, Poseidon had a lot of conflicts with her back then, maybe he will understand Athena better, or in other words, understand how she behaves in the world.

Melos poked Hades who was sitting next to him: "Do you think Athena can be brought to our side?"

"She won't help us, and she won't help Zeus." Hades said without raising his head.

"why?"

"no need."

"..."

And the protagonist who was discussed by the two was taking care of the flowers in the greenhouse.

The door of the conservatory was pushed open, and the top of the wind chime brushed against it, making the wind chime emit a crisp sound.

"Zeus has a message." The visitor said to her.

Athena put down the kettle and turned around. She still liked her previous attire—a suit of armor when there was a war, and a simple and elegant dress when there was no war—blond curly hair hung over her shoulders, and the corners of her mouth held Light smile.

She looks like a perfect goddess, noble and elegant, even if she stands with Aphrodite, she is definitely not inferior, but such a goddess, once on the battlefield, most gods will fear The presence.

"He wants my help?" Athena took the envelope from the man casually, threw it away, and sat on the steps beside him, "He still can't see the facts clearly after all."

"With Hera's help, maybe he can succeed."

"Perhaps with your help from Hermes, he has a better chance of winning," Athena looked at him with her arms folded, "Why, his information has been published throughout the God Realm, why don't you go to him You must know that he is very dissatisfied with the matter of your disappearance, don't you want to take credit for it?"

Hermes laughed lightly: "Athena, even Artemis is hiding far away, and I'm not a fool, how could I run in front of him at this time?"

"Artemis was fascinated by that human being. Who would have thought that Olivine would have such a great influence on her back then." Athena looked at a plant in front of her and dragged the envelope she had thrown away. The past is slowly eaten, and it withers after a while.

"Idiot, you dare to eat a letter with divine power." Athena pulled out the withered plant and threw it aside.

"There will always be some people who are overwhelmed." Hermes leaned against the wall and said lightly.

"This is for you." Athena threw a plant at him, "This is all the information I can find about Persephone, although she did escape, but now she should be in her brother's house." By your side, if you want to find her, you have to be careful that they settle accounts with you, after all, in their eyes, you are Zeus' accomplice."

"You don't need to remind me." Hermes took the plant, "Be careful yourself, Zeus won't let it go." Then he took the plant and left.

Leaving the various plants in the greenhouse in front of Athena alone, although it is a man-made greenhouse, it has a bit of chilling atmosphere.

Athena looked at the blooming flowers and sneered a few times.

"Of course we have to hide," she murmured to herself, "Zeus...has gone mad."

……

Melos always felt that it was inconvenient to live in a hotel all the time, and he thought he had to have his own place.

But he originally came here to travel. By chance, he met Makaria who came here to look for him, and then he encountered various things. He never went back. A sum of money, but the house is not here after all.

Now it seems that he has to stay here for a while, so he can only consider using his own money to buy a house.

This matter was handed over to Persephone who had stayed in the world for many years.

Persephone has no opinion on this, and has been helping them look after the house for a while. After all, they can’t go back and forth between the underworld and the human world. It's better not to open it too often.

Makarya has always liked the human world very much, so she proposed to follow Persephone—she did not admit that she could not bear the cold eyes of the "parents", and the disgusted expression of her mother really made her unbearable .

"It doesn't need to be too big, and the address can be a bit off." Persephone said to the intermediary after fully considering Melos' character. As for a certain head of the family, as long as her brother nods, other people's opinions can basically be ignored. up.

Although with the expansion of the immigration wave, the land of the whole world is gradually becoming empty, but the large population on the earth cannot be solved in one or two years, so Persephone thinks it is better to choose a remote place .

But one good thing is that as the population decreases, the average house price in the whole world is also slowly decreasing, even at the small villa level, it is cheaper than before.

"Auntie." Makaria has been in the human world for a few years, and has gradually been influenced by the folk customs here. In front of outsiders, she changed her name for Persephone, "Look."

"En?" Persephone turned her head, just in time to see a figure that flashed by.

She rang the words that Melos told herself a few days ago, and said to Makaria: "You stay here and watch first, and I will come when I go."

Hermes didn't expect that he would be discovered just after he came here, and before he had time to leave, Persephone's attack had already arrived.

Persephone is not necessarily stronger than him. Although she was a lot stronger back then, the changes in these years have reduced her divine power a lot. For Hermes, the current Persephone It wasn't enough to be a threat at all, but he didn't dare to kill himself, so he had to be forced back by her.

"Hermes." Facing this man whose strength was much higher than hers, Persephone never dared to take it lightly, "What do you want to do?"

Melos had told them before that Hermes would appear again. Thinking of how sincere Hermes was to Zeus before, they basically felt that Hermes was sent by Zeus.

"I just..." Hermes seemed to want to say something, but swallowed the words, "I want to tell you to be careful, Zeus has gone crazy, and now he will use any means to achieve his goal."

Persephone sneered: "Isn't he always like this?"

"In short...be careful anyway."

"I'm really curious, what are you doing here, are you just here to tell us to be careful?"

Hermes looked at her with a complicated expression: "You... have changed a lot."

"It's no longer the little girl who was framed by others, right?"

"Persephone... what happened back then..."

"I know what happened back then has nothing to do with you, it's just Hermes, you only work for Zeus, don't you?" In that case, how could she not be more vigilant towards him?

Hermes pursed his lips, and finally could only repeat: "In short, you have to be careful."

He wanted to leave, but Persephone couldn't stop him. Naturally, Persephone didn't want to stop him. After he disappeared, she breathed a sigh of relief.

In any case, this matter has to be told to Melos, so that everyone is careful.

Zeus...not crazy, but crazy.
