[Greek Mythology] Disconnection

Under the cover of night, Eros quietly flew into Psyche's room. He was a little curious as to what kind of girl could arouse Aphrodite's anger. You must know that the beauty of that goddess is recognized, and There are many lovers, so Eros always feels that there is no shortage of work by her side, and his pranks will always have targets.

But it didn't seem to be a coincidence, because the sky was too dark, and Psyche had the habit of sleeping on his side, so Eros's wish was obviously a little dim. Just when he was about to walk to the other side of the bed, he heard the sound of the door opening.

The little Cupid immediately squatted down subconsciously and hid. The person who came in was Ailuo. She held a small lamp, looked at the sleeping Psyche, and covered the beautiful little princess. I checked the quilt once, for fear that she would make any mistakes.

Then she glanced thoughtfully at where Eros was. Her footsteps approached Eros little by little, but stopped suddenly at the last step. It was Eros who suddenly became nervous, but he always I feel like I've overlooked something.

Fortunately, Elo did not continue to approach, but turned around and closed the door for Psyche. Eros heaved a sigh of relief and slowly crawled out from the bed. The arrow of his divine power accidentally bumped into himself.

He subconsciously took a breath, and hurriedly dodged back, but accidentally bumped into the vase behind him, the sound of the vase falling to the ground awakened the sleeping princess, she quickly covered her body with the quilt, and looked around .

Seeing that it was just a broken vase, he let go of his heart and continued to hide under the quilt to sleep.

But another key figure, Eros, was not so relaxed. Eros subconsciously glanced at Psyche worriedly. Through the slightly darker moonlight, he could see the whole picture of the girl clearly. She had a pair of brown eyes and a head. The golden curly hair and exquisite facial features make her look radiant. If you have to use some words to describe her beauty, even if you are a person with the best writing, you can only shake your head. The face is so pale, it seems that it is not an exaggeration to say that she is better than Aphrodite, her beauty is really beyond human, no!Even beyond the existence of God.

But for Eros, the key to him is that he was hit by an arrow with his own divine power. His arrow can make all people and even gods fall in love. As long as they are hit by his golden arrow, even two people who hate each other They will all love each other, but on the contrary, as long as they are hit by a copper arrow, the two of us who kissed me like glue yesterday will become strangers and hate each other. , and let Daphne, the daughter of the river god, become a laurel tree to escape the love of too much eyes.

Although Eros likes to use this ability on other people, it does not mean that he likes to be hit by the arrow. You must know that the person who is hit by the arrow will fall in love with the person he sees at first sight, even monsters will fall in love without hesitation. He was going to use it on Psyche, but he got the treatment himself.

One of the five creator gods felt that he seemed to be trapped in his own divine power, as if he fell in love with a human being, which made him a little anxious, and he was clearly thinking about the object of spoofing, but now he became himself The person he likes is all the fault of that maid. If it wasn't for her, he would have ended up in such a state of embarrassment.

Eros suddenly remembered something, in fact, human beings cannot see his existence, but at the moment of the maid, he suddenly felt a cold feeling behind him, so he squatted down subconsciously, so that Psyche When he woke up, he still had this legacy.

But now his mind is full of the scene where Psyche looked back just now. This is the magic power of the arrow of love. Eros's mind is full of fantasies about the beauty of a girl's frown and smile. He is a little jealous that those humans can watch at will The woman he likes slowly burns with anger in his heart.

Just like this for a whole night, he quietly admired the beauty of the third princess in Psyche's room. The power of love made him not want to leave that young girl.

Eros didn't realize it until Artemis left the sky in the moon chariot and her brother Apollo was ready to take over.

"Your Highness, I'm coming in." But this happiness has an end after all, Ai Luo dutifully appeared at the door, ready to wake Psyche up.

Although Psyche was still sleeping, Elo opened the door of the girl's boudoir as usual, and this time Eros didn't dodge but just stood there.

Maybe Elo did it on purpose or couldn't see Eros at all. She avoided the place where Eros was and chose a direct route to Psyche's side, waking up the sleeping Psyche as usual. Princess.

"Your Highness, wake up." Ai Luo shook the sleeping princess.

"Well... is it morning?" Psyche didn't have the habit of staying in bed, or she was used to Elo coming to wake her up tomorrow. She stretched, yawned, and rubbed Sleepy boredom, a sleepy look.

"Yes, my princess, did you sleep well last night?" Ai Luo quietly glanced at the place where Eros was, and asked mysteriously.

Eros felt that he must be delusional. That person is just an ordinary human being so he can see himself?But what happened to that illusion just now?

"Well, it's very comfortable, but in the middle of the night, it seems that a vase was broken, huh? Is it my illusion?" She saw the broken vase last night, and it stood on the table intact today.

"Your Highness, the scene must have been seen in a dream." Ai Luo smiled and changed the position of the vase.

Eros breathed a sigh of relief, he restored the vase with his divine power last night, he didn't want his little princess to wake up in the morning and be stabbed in the foot by this damned fragment.

"Maybe! I don't seem to be in a particularly good state recently. By the way, what's up with Aurora today?" Psyche would ask this question every day, just like Aurora would come to wake her up every day.

"His Royal Highness is going to the Temple of the Sun God to divine your marriage, and the ritual sacrifices are all ready." Ailuo replied systematically, without a trace of emotion.

"Really? Is my father impatient? Well, I can finally know who my future husband is." Psyche couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief at the news, she had already reached the age of marriage, But there was no suitor, which was almost rare among nobles at that time.

Eros next to him fluttered his wings when he heard the news, and glanced at Psyche reluctantly. Now he has a reason to leave. I hope Apollo will not hold grudges too much for the previous incident. , Willing to do him a small favor so that he can be happy with Psyche.

He flew out of the only open window in Psyche's room, ready to seek Apollo for help.

Elo thoughtfully glanced at the window where Eros disappeared, and then asked with a smile, "Your Highness, what do you want to eat today?"

"Ai Luo, you seem to be in a good mood today?" Psyche, who had never seen Ai Luo so happy, expressed curiosity about how strange his maid was today.

"No, it's just that something big might happen today. Isn't it a good thing that Her Royal Highness finally knows who her husband is? Maybe it's the king or prince of a neighboring country, or a hero on a trip? The person Her Royal Highness is going to marry must not be an ordinary person." Ai Luo's smile deepened, and she didn't know whether it was a sincere blessing or another intention.

"I hope it's the same as what you said." Psyche folded her hands on her chest, making a prayer appearance. As a young girl, she really hoped that her future husband could do what Airo said.

In the end, Psyche's father was worried that his daughter had no suitors so far. He was a little worried whether his daughter was hated by the gods. He was afraid that the gods would be angry, so he had no choice but to go to Apollo, the god of prophecy. Divination in the temple of the gods, to find a karma for his poor daughter.

Unfortunately, the prophecy is that Psyche must wear a wedding dress to marry a vicious monster, a serpent spirit who does many evils, and even Zeus is a little afraid, which puts a lot of pressure on this carefree father. However, his favorite daughter would face such a fate. He returned to the castle with a sad face, and told the queen the unfortunate news.

There is no impenetrable wall in the world, and Psyche also heard this prophecy from her followers. She suddenly put down the garland she was weaving weakly, and the breeze was blowing on her face. But she wanted to marry a monster. She thought she would marry a handsome man, have a few children, and live a life of husband and child at home, but unfortunately, she would end up like this.

"Your Highness, are you okay?" Ai Luo asked from the side, she didn't seem surprised that Psyche would have such a fate.

"I..." Tears slipped down from a girl's eye sockets unconsciously, dripping onto the garland that the girl had woven before. She was suffering from the unhappy marriage she was about to face.

"What should I do if I don't want to run away, Elo? I don't want to marry a monster." Psyche burst into tears, why did this happen to her, and why did Goddess of Fate play tricks on her like this.

"Your Highness, what are you going to do?" Ai Luo stood silently at the side without saying anything, just waiting for her master's order.

"What should I do? Get out of the country? Get out of Greece? It's useless, it's a preordained fate, and there's nothing I can do but wait, quietly wait to marry my future husband? "Psyche suddenly laughed wildly, even so, she was still beautiful and charming.But what's the use of being beautiful? What can she do in the face of that terrible prophecy?Perhaps it was because of her beauty that surpassed human beings that she was cursed by Aphrodite, or maybe the goddess of fate wanted to get back the price of her current beauty. In front of the gods, she was undoubtedly small and powerless to resist All their arrangements, those gods have been reminding her that she is just a plaything of the gods.

"Your Highness, you can't do anything, so what are you complaining about?" Ai Luo asked back, she looked at the girl sitting among the flowers, her eyes were full of sympathy, but there was still a hint of disappointment.

"I..." Psyche was a little speechless, she was just complaining helplessly, she couldn't do anything, she could only stare blankly at Ailuo trying to find help, her eyes were dull, Gives an air of despair.

Ai Luo seemed to deliberately ignore her gaze, but said respectfully, "Your Highness, please go back to the bedroom. Presumably, His Royal Highness and His Royal Highness must be very worried about you."

"By the way, I still have my father and mother, so I can't let them worry about me so much." Psyche stood up, forced a smile, and then asked Ai Luo, "Ai Luo, are my eyes red? Will the Queen Mother see that I have cried?"

"Your Highness, you have not been crying for a long time, and you are not very popular, but please pay attention to your noble etiquette." In the huge garden, only Psyche and Ailuo were there, and the other guards were just waiting outside. .

"That's good, let's go back, let's prepare for my wedding a little bit! After all, a girl only gets married once in her life." Although Psyche said this with tears in her voice, there was no trace of a smile on her face. fade away.

"Yes, Your Royal Highness, I will always be by your side." Elo knelt down, expressing her sincerity to Psyche, but this just made Psyche ignore the weird look on her face smile.
