[Greek mythology] The fountain of youth

It was none other than Hades who took Persephone abducted, but Hades, the king of the underworld among the three realms. His strength should be the worst, only lower than Zeus.

Now that the god king is unwilling to stand out, who can make Hades give in? Is it possible to rely on Poseidon's persuasion?

It is rumored that Hades is very possessive, but he will not return the soul of Hades that enters him, even the wealth of Hades. What's more, he has already announced that Persephone is the queen of Hades he is about to marry. How could she easily let Persephone go back to Olympus.

Zeus just felt obsessed, so he pushed Hermes out to do these thankless things for him. Heber's eyes were a little red, and she fell into regret.

"If I had persisted for a while that day and held Hades a little longer, Demeter would have arrived, Persephone would not have been taken away, and you would not have been sent to Hades by Zeus." It would be good if they met, but their fate would change after a while.

What's the use of first-class gods, if you just watch your sisters being taken away by others, the most annoying thing is yourself!She was clearly at the scene, seeing all this happening, but she couldn't do anything about it. She looked up at the sky and held back the tears, and the tears rolled in her eyes.

From the very beginning, she decided to be a goddess who cannot be controlled by others, but now even the people around her can't protect her well, so how can she control her own destiny...

Hermes squatted down and stared at the green eyes of the goddess of youth. The sadness in them was so strong. The goddess of youth, who was always carefree, was actually infected with sadness.

The water mist was dense in her clear eyes. Although the goddess tried her best to hold back, the water vapor was thick, as if it would melt into water droplets immediately.

Even the tip of her nose was pink, obviously trying to hold back her tears. Seeing Hermes approaching, the Goddess of Youth was afraid that he would see her crying, so she held Hermes with one hand. Telling him to come over, he covered his eyes with the other hand.

Hermes, who always had a smile on his face, suddenly became serious. He held Hebe's hand that was resisting his advance, and for the first time, with a tough attitude, faced Hebe and took her away for another reason. One, the hand covering his face.

Hebe, who had no cover, directly exposed his vulnerable side. Under the clear moonlight, the tears of the goddess became more and more crystal clear. She really cried, and the male god carefully wiped the tears on Hebe's face.

Although Hermes treated her with gentleness and a gentleman, Heber only felt that she wanted to cry even more, and she did the same. This was the first time Heber ignored her image. little girl with things.

Seeing Hebe's tears flow more and more, Hermes panicked, "I assure you, I will definitely come back." The envoy took Hebe into his arms.

Hermes has always been eloquent, he is the creator of deception, but under the tears of the goddess of youth, for the first time in history, he lost his words, his hands and feet were confused, he didn't know what to do, he didn't want to Let those beautiful blue eyes get wet.

Hebe didn't speak for a long time, and wiped away her tears. Hermes had no choice but to continue coaxing her, "I didn't cry once when I was a child, but now I'm a crybaby?"

She beat Hermes angrily, and he immediately held his chest, pretending to fall to the ground, pretending to be injured by Hebe, and after a while he made funny faces to tease Hebe, and finally persuaded the little aunt's tears went back.

The envoy looked at the sky and said, "I really have to go this time. The time between Olympus and Hades is a bit tight." After all, Zeus gave the task. He is the king of gods and his father, and Zeus is the king. He is a minister, so why doesn't Hermes know that this is a potentially fatal job.

But he has nothing. Although he achieved the position of the main god, it is because he has the benefits of Zeus' plan. Once he can't bring benefits to Zeus, what will happen?He is not a father who loves his children.

Ever since he was a child, Hermes was the best at forbearance, full of wings in the dark, and this time is the same.

Time was limited, and he wanted to leave after saying goodbye to Hebe. Hebe watched Hermes go away, trotted after him, and she grabbed Hermes' clothes, "Going to the underworld is such an interesting thing, I don't want to How can I go!" Hermes could not be allowed to take risks alone.

She crossed over and walked side by side with Hermes, and the envoy quickly grabbed her, "No, do you think the Hades is a good place?" There is always danger there, how could he let Hebe take such a big risk? Regardless of the risk, he is not at ease.

Heber turned around deftly, shook off Hermes' hand, and ran ahead lightly, "Why can't you go, but I can't, me! I want to show the god of the underworld, what is the goddess of youth?" The brilliance." She said it very easily.Like going to a normal place, maybe even in the mood for a joke.

She sneaked a glance at Hermes behind her, "You are familiar with the underworld, so there will be an envoy to lead the way."

She directly used Hermes' words to silence him, "Anyway, even if you don't take me there, I will still go!" Hebe said decisively.

Hermes, who had nothing to do with Hebe, had no choice but to compromise and agree. Even if he stopped Hebe now, Hebe would still sneak into the Hades by herself, and she would be more dangerous by herself. Take Heber by yourself.

So the envoy could only give in and agree to Heber's conditions.

The figures of the two gradually receded, and a gust of wind blew gently. A god holding a trident appeared out of nowhere in the teardrops that fell from the goddess of youth just now. Drops of crystal tears gathered in the hands of the male god, and the male god held the water droplets tightly, and disappeared in Olympus in an instant.

Hades is located under Olympus, above the center of the earth. Hades is the king of Hades, so he can directly summon the magic circle leading to Hades, but they can't, Heber and the others can only be honest, Follow the fixed path of dead mortal souls to Hades.

Darkness is also one of the keys to Hades. Before the night disappears, the two will come to the world next time. Demeter is in the center of the earth leading to Hades, and she is waiting for them with a torch.

When Hebe saw Demeter, she was shocked. She, who was originally luxurious and plump, became fat and her face was more than a little older. Demeter's brown hair was even mixed with silver.

After losing Persephone, she also seemed to lose her smile. She looked gloomy, as if covered by a dark cloud, without energy, and she was wearing a different golden dress than before.

She was wearing a jet-black skirt, covering herself from head to toe, and the torchlight shone on her face, looking so terrifying, she was lifeless.

Only when she saw Hermes, the goddess of harvest, who was already in despair, showed some emotional turmoil. Looking at Hebe behind Hermes, her anger spurted out like a substance, not just like a puppet just now. The woman, the desperate mother, questioned the angel.

"What the hell are you doing? Have you played house! I put all my hopes on you, and I hope you know!" The road to Hades didn't have much hope, but it brought another person, Demeter Seeing Heber felt even less hopeful.

Hebe understood Demeter's pain of losing her daughter, but she definitely didn't come here to make trouble! "It's not playing tricks! Maybe you don't believe in the God of Saturn, but my determination to get Persephone back is no less than yours. Please believe me!"

She was snatched away right in front of Hebe, and she must take Persephone back from Hades herself.

Maybe it was Hebe's determination that infected Demeter, or maybe the hope was too slim, and one more person would give more hope. Demeter finally agreed with Hebe to enter the underworld.

She kept cursing along the way, "I thought he was different from Zeus Poseidon. I haven't guarded against him for so many years! You are a cunning person! You even set up a barrier on purpose to prevent me from entering the underworld! It was on purpose, Dirty bastard! Why should I take away my pure Persephone!"

She escorted the two of them, "He will not have a good time, he will definitely be punished, Hades even asked me on purpose, the goddess' preferences, he is deliberately approaching my daughter, I should have listened to Prometheus, put Persephone is hiding deep in the mountains so that no one can see her..."

With Demeter yelling and cursing, they came to the entrance. She also looked much calmer, and handed the torch to Hermes, "The torch will guide you and let you pass through the fog of Hades, but remember that the torch cannot be extinguished. , the torches are extinguished and you will be lost in the palace of Hades."

That cunning Hades, the palace is in the mist, and people will lose their way there if they don't pay attention. This is the torch that Demeter made with great effort, and there is only one.

If it goes out, not only Persephone will not come back, even Hermes and Hebe will confess to being there, so the torch needs protection, so Demeter gave it to Hermes.

She took out the scissors again, cut off her long hair, wove it into a necklace, then cut her palm, smeared blood on the hair necklace, and brought Hebe's neck, "stained with mother's blood." The hair of her poor child is bound by an invisible thread, go and hold it."

"Even if the cunning Hades hides my beloved Persephone underground, this strand of hair will still be connected to my child!" With cold fingers, she straightened Hebe's collar.

"Be sure to bring Persephone back! As long as she comes back, I can give you anything, even my main god!" Her face was already stained with wind and frost.

God is the most wanton existence, but for her daughter, Demeter uses her own power to make everything in the world depressed. She is not only consuming divine power, but also exhausting her original power. If she doesn't stop, the earth will be destroyed. The final destination of the goddess Gaia is her future.

It's not that she doesn't know, but she still ignores these things, so Demeter keeps getting old, and puts her hope on Hebe.
