[Greek Mythology] Prince of Zeus

Hebe cried and fell at the feet of her mother, the Queen of Heaven, Hera. She fell on Hera's knee and wept endlessly, "My noble mother, my daughter has never been humiliated like this."

"Don't just cry, but tell me why you are crying." The queen Hera took Hebe into her arms and comforted her, "With me here, I will replace you for whatever humiliation you have suffered." call the shots."

"Do you know that Zeus, the king of the gods, dismissed my priesthood?" Hebe, the goddess of youth, said sobbing, "But that's all, the feast is my fault. So even if my priesthood is dismissed, I will Swallowing your breath in order to talk to you will only add to your worries."

Hera frowned when she heard this. It was her fault that her simple and kind daughter had a banquet, but she might even know that it was Zeus' intention, but she could bear it in her heart and think that it was her fault for losing her composure.

Thinking of this, Hera couldn't help feeling worried for her daughter.

Hebe continued: "But just after my daughter got the news, Father God actually gave Ganymedes the priesthood of pouring wine for the gods. This made me intolerable."

Speaking of this, Heber cried even harder.

"This has always been a priesthood that can only be held by the unmarried children of every generation of god kings. I took up this job because I am your daughter, the noble queen. God the Father resigned from me, but gave the priesthood to Ganymede This is a completely unbearable humiliation for me.” Hebe choked up, “What is Ganymedes, no matter how beautiful and charming he is, he is just a human being. Only the unmarried children of the god kings of the past generations can take on the priesthood. This is unbelievable."

Hera stroked Heber's hair to soothe Heber's emotions, and when she heard the news, she was so angry that she couldn't speak.

"My noble mother, this is not only a humiliation to me, but also a humiliation to you!" The innocent goddess of youth, Hebe, explained the key point, "You know that I am not married yet, but I was deprived by God the Father. To be expelled from the priesthood that only the unmarried children of the god king can hold is simply against you..."

Hebe glanced at Hera's expression, but didn't say any disrespectful words. Seeing his mother's bitter and angry expression, Hebe continued: "My good mother, you said that I have been so humiliated, how can I not stop crying? ?”

Hera gritted her teeth and said, "Don't be so sad. Since you are unmarried, I assure you that the priesthood must be yours. What you got is just random news. Why hasn't it been implemented yet? In the next Before the banquet comes, I still have a way to prevent that Ganymede from getting this priesthood!"

When Heber heard what his mother said, he stopped his tears and showed a hint of joy: "I hope you can say that everything I said is true, that would be great."

"Of course what I said is true, my silly daughter, how can you let a new god who was once a lowly mortal compare?" Hera said, "I already know this, and I have already figured out what to do. There are a few, you go down first, just live your life relaxed and happy. Wait for someone to return to his post."

Hebe finally let go of the stone in his heart, wiped away his tears, and thanked his mother with a smile.Only then did I say goodbye happily.

When Hebe left, Hera got up and paced in her temple.

She couldn't say she wasn't anxious, she still had time to change the situation before the next banquet came and the gods would know, but it wouldn't be too long.And she couldn't kill Ganymedes on Mount Olympus, which is unrealistic.

The Queen of Heaven, Hera, is playing tricks in her heart, and it is very simple to restore her daughter Hebe, the goddess of youth, to her post-as long as Ganymede does not exist.This priesthood had to continue to be assumed by his daughter Hebe, who was not married.

Hera decided to see where Ganymedes was at the moment and what he was doing before arranging his tricks.

The answer made Hera couldn't be more surprised!

Hera discovered that Ganymedes was not in Mount Olympus just now. This prince who loves the world, mortals are mortals, loves to run to the world twice every day, and thought that because he could not face him on Mount Olympus He started and was distressed.Unexpectedly, he sent it by himself but took advantage of the opportunity.

Ganymedes and two male gods, a "goddess" after the game, and Hercules walked together.

Hercules told Ganymedes something that aroused his sorrow.

"My dear prince, in fact, I have something to tell you." Hercules hesitated and said to Ganymedes, "I didn't want to spoil your interest so I didn't tell you. But I think you still have a right to know."

"What is it?" Ganymedes asked.

"I don't know if you still remember Orion the hunter who died protecting you?" Hercules said.

"Of course." Hearing this name, Ganymedes couldn't help feeling tense, and seeing Hercules' hesitation, he didn't know that he had something unfortunate to tell him.

"Then I wonder if he has mentioned to you that he has a loyal dog?"

"Of course..." Ganymedes frowned, not knowing what Hercules was going to tell him.

Hercules gritted his teeth and talked to Ganymedes vigorously, "Just before you invited me to play, I heard that the fearless hound was waiting at home for his master who had not returned. He didn’t go looking for food, and waited at home for his master to come home, so he starved himself to death.”

Ganymedes trembled when he heard that, remembering that Orion had told him that he had a hunting dog named Sirius who was always with him hunting, and that day he happened to be resting at home...

Ganymedes almost wet his eyes again. He knew that he had a hunting dog waiting for him to go home, but he didn't think about it at all. Unexpectedly, the loyal dog starved to death while he was waiting.

Ganymedes is also a dog lover. He has a loyal hunting dog himself, and he can fully understand the deep relationship between Orion and his loyal dog.

He also thought of his hound, wondering if he had been waiting because he hadn't returned, and didn't even think about eating or drinking.

But there is more than one hound waiting for him?My father, mother, brothers, mentor and friends...

The saddest thing in this world is waiting for the unknown.And the tragedy caused by waiting.

Ganymedes then proposed: "Hercules, the God of Hercules, this news is really sad. I wonder if you know where Orion's home is? I want to mourn his hound Silius. It As worthy of admiration as its owner."

Hercules nodded and said, "I'll go with you."

Ganymedes followed Hercules to Orion's house, and saw that the hound was still there, but it was stiff and lifeless.

Ganymedes saw that the body of the hound was starved and bony, and died in pain and the disappointment and sorrow of those who did not wait, so he closed his eyes and silently mourned for the hound.

"It was a scene that brought tears to my eyes." Ganymedes said heartbroken.

"It just lost its last breath today. I heard that it didn't eat anything and barked every day, so it starved to death at home." Hercules also shook his head and sighed.

Ganymedes said: "I hope it can stay with its master Orion after it dies."

"Orion has been promoted to Orion. If you want it to be with its master, it must also be promoted to a constellation. So it is impossible, kind-hearted prince Ganymedes, please don't think too much, all the world Things are unpredictable, and this kind of sorrow is common. This is one of the experiences and meanings of living in the world. Everything has its own way." Hercules enlightened Ganymedes.

Ganymedes didn't hear it, and thought of going to Zeus to intercede later. He can promote Orion to Orion, and naturally he can also promote Sirius to a constellation to accompany him in Russia. Next to Lion.

This is what Orion and Sirius deserve.

"Let's go back." Ganymedes said.

"Yes." Hercules nodded.

Ganymedes and Hercules left Orion's house, and not far away, a huge poisonous snake suddenly attacked Ganymedes.

The sharp teeth are exposed, spraying venom.The rigid snake tail flapped in the wind.

It turned out that when Hera saw Ganymedes in the world, Heracles just went to find water to drink, so Hera only saw Ganymedes alone, thinking that this good opportunity should not be missed, so she didn't think about it any more. , Repeated the trick and sent his own more powerful poison to do the murder.

Seeing the sudden appearance of a poisonous snake, Hercules immediately stood in front of Ganymedes and said, "How could such a ferocious monster suddenly appear here? But please don't panic, prince. With me, Hercules, I will definitely not be afraid." There will be a repeat of the tragedy."

Ganymedes was also really taken aback. This poisonous snake is the same as the poisonous scorpion last time. Apart from being sent by Hera, what other possibilities are there for it to appear here?

Ganymedes thought that Hera would be rational, but she did not expect that she would completely lose her mind in order to eradicate her rival in love.It's only been a few days since she repeated her old tricks. Could it be that the more she thinks, the less likely she will be thought of?So this time I took advantage of the opportunity in the world to commit another murder, because I thought that others would definitely not think that she did it because she couldn't be so irrational and repeated the old trick in just a few days?

Was someone else framing her?

If that's the plan, it would be a trick.

It's just that with Hercules here this time, I don't know what kind of monster she came out with the confidence to kill herself.thought Ganymedes.

Unexpectedly, within a short while, the poisonous snake was beaten to the ground by Hercules.

I don't know whether it should be said that he was more frightened by Hera's irrational trick again, or by the strange power of Hercules.

Hercules is very familiar with the monsters.Practice makes perfect.

He has defeated more monsters than the average person has crossed bridges.

So without much effort, the poisonous snake was terminated.

Ganymedes praised: "As expected of Hercules, the God of Hercules, it is my honor to see your divine power."

"Where," Hercules said, "but it is indeed its misfortune to meet me."

"It must have been so hungry that it took its own life recklessly. Let us leave it alone and go back to Mount Olympus," Ganymedes said.Don't bother with Hera - and it's impossible to bother with Hera.

Just pretend you didn't see it.

Next time you go down the mountain, you must be careful. You really can't look at irrational women according to common sense-especially the goddess.

"Wait, this monster... I seem to know why it appeared here. It didn't appear in front of us because of a wild monster looking for food," Hercules said solemnly, "It's the queen of Hera. Come! Yes, it must be, I recognize this kind of monster!"

Ganymedes didn't expect that Hercules' IQ would be on the line right now.It doesn't seem to be completely big-chested and brainless.

"Are you sure you're right?" Ganymedes didn't want to cause trouble, so what if he knew it was sent by Hera?One more thing is worse than one less thing, he still wants to go back to Mount Olympus to find Zeus and promote Sirius.

"Yes, I once defeated the hydra raised by the queen Hera. The body and physical signs of this poisonous snake are the same as that of the hydra, except that it does not have nine heads. I am afraid that there are other advantages and disadvantages. Fortunately, I first The quickest way to find its key point is to go inside and kill it. The quick decision saved us from being in danger." Hercules said conclusively.It seems that because the brain power is finally online, he is reluctant to let go of this huge discovery of his own, "Could it be that the queen Hera sent it to kill you?"

"How could the noble queen Hera do such a thing? You must have thought too much." Ganymedes said, thinking that you can guess who sent it without looking at any physical signs, "definitely It is because this is a dangerous place that we will encounter such monsters, let us quickly return to Mount Olympus."

Hercules said: "Could it be that the poisonous scorpion last time...Orion...is the same as today. It was sent by the queen Hera to attack you..."

Hercules was shocked by what he had surmised.

Ganymedes listened, and complained in his heart, probably you are the only one in Mount Olympus who doesn't know who sent the poisonous scorpion?Is it necessary to be so shocked?

"Go back." Ganymedes said.

Hercules then waved off the snake's head and said, "Okay, let's go back and let me report this to the king of the gods."

"..."

Ganymedes and Hercules returned to Mount Olympus.

Zeus learned of this from Hercules, and seeing Hercules holding the head in his hand, he was furious and said, "Hermes, go and call Hera, the Queen of Heaven."

Ganymedes didn't want to confront Hera head-on, so he found a reason to retreat first.

When Hera arrived at the palace of the king of gods, when she saw the head of the poisonous snake in Hercules' hands, her complexion darkened instantly.

Zeus said coldly to Hera: "I hope you can understand your identity and stop doing despicable things to Ganymedes. Otherwise, you know what kind of punishment will be waiting for you."

The words spoken were as cold as ice.

Hera heard Zeus say that, remembering that she was punished last time for instigating the wind god against the illegitimate son Heracles in front of Zeus. Her feet were tied to an anvil, her hands were tied with gold chains, and she was hanged upside down. Showing the public in mid-air, all the gods on the holy mountain of Olympus were awed by Zeus's wrath and dared not approach him to intercede for the Queen of Heaven.

Only the eldest son, the god of fire, Hephaestus, wanted to save her, but he was caught by Zeus and thrown down Mount Olympus.

Hera felt cold and argued, "If you hadn't made the decision to resign your unmarried daughter's priesthood and give it to Ganymedes, how could I do such a thing again. I assure you that I will I won't do it again in the future, but please understand how you feel as a mother. Resign your unmarried daughter from the position of cupbearer, which only the children of god kings can hold, and give her to a new god who was promoted by a mortal. , no matter to Heber or to me, what a humiliation."

Hera took the heavy and gave up the light, and used roundabout tactics in the battle.I hope that Zeus can return his daughter Hebe, the goddess of youth, the priesthood of serving wine, so as not to insult her holy name.

Otherwise, I will lose face in the God Realm.

Zeus was not aggressive, and said: "Then I think she is married, so I can let you have no more words."

When Hera heard this, she looked at Zeus in shock.
