After being sacrificed to Eros [Greek mythology]

With this in mind, Psyche released a white dove early in the morning and asked his sister Agnes to meet with him to discuss going to the Temple of Cupid.

In the little letter, she specifically asked not to bring Aldous over.

It was with great difficulty that she calmed down the man last night. Once Aldous came, something might happen again.

Now that the most critical moment has come, she will not allow any more mistakes.

Fortunately, Agnes is more shrewd. After receiving Psyche's little letter, she slips away from Aldous on the pretext of going to the toilet and comes to meet Psyche by the stream.

The two sisters got together and sketched a map.

Now they are located in the forest in the southwestern part of the city-state. If they want to go to Koliat Island in the middle of the sea, they must take a boat, and they must find an experienced old sea wolf to drive the boat.

It was the first time to do this kind of deceitful thing, and Psyche couldn't help being nervous.

Will they succeed in finding the Temple of Cupid?

Will Venus see her again, and will he answer her prayer? ...

Too many unknowns filled Psyche's heart, and she was so nervous that even her fingertips trembled.

Psyche only knew that Venus was the son of Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty.

He was born with Beauty in the foam of the sea, a god young and old.

Psyche took a deep breath, imagining what he should do after meeting Cupid, so as to move him and move him.

A strange thought flashed through her mind.

The god of love has a pair of holy wings, which is well known in the world.

That person also has a pair of wings...

So, is it a coincidence?

The last night before departure was spent on board.

Of course, only Psyche knew about the so-called "last one".

She has already contacted Agnes, and she will leave for Koliat Island tomorrow.

The night sky that night was not as black as the bottom of a pot as usual, but deep and faint blue, shimmering with a hazy cold light, and even the lake on the ground was covered with a layer of icy blue veil.

The man still came to accompany her, and she dragged a boat on the lake with melons and fruits and light sweet fruit wine on the boat.

Although the fruit wine was not strong, Psyche didn't dare to drink too much, for fear of delaying tomorrow's business.

They had also been together on the lake before, but it was better to be alone with Aldous that day than to be alone today.

When the lake was calm, the man liked to look at her quietly, as if in his eyes, she was sweeter than wine.

He poured her one cup after another, and gently wiped the corners of her mouth, "...I never had the heart to tell you that I'm going on a long trip tomorrow, and I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you for a few days."

Psyche raised an eyebrow secretly.

He is going away too?

Psyche asked in a low voice, "Why so suddenly?"

He smiled, "Just two or three days, soon."

Psyche let out a light oh.

He put the oars aside, and put the wine aside.

"Wait for me, okay?"

Psyche gave an ambiguous hum.

In my impression, although he was usually elegant and kind, he had never spoken to her in such a pleading tone... as if he was weak and harmless, and it was her cruelty to abandon him.

He rubbed her temples submissively, and coquettishly towards her, "Well, Psyche is so nice."

Psyche touched his slightly hot face, and for a moment wanted to plunge into the lake to cool down.

The fatal attraction of him came again, and with just a few words, he easily touched the softest part of her heart.

Psyche lowered his head in despair, not daring to look back at him, for fear that he would be deluded again and fall into it, and would be reluctant to leave tomorrow.

Psyche's voice was slightly hoarse, he cleared his throat, and changed the subject, "Where are you going?"

He said in a low voice, "A mysterious place."

Psyche knew that he was playing tricks again.

What she didn't know was that Cupid had to go to the temple of his mother Aphrodite to tell her about Psyche.

Afterwards, they could be honest with each other without having to meet in secret at night.

Both of them will go out tomorrow, but in opposite directions.

Psyche raised his head slightly, looking at the starry sky.

No matter whether you are nostalgic or not, tonight is destined to be the last night of their relationship.

If there is no accident, they will be strangers who have not met each other when they meet again.

But tonight, they still cuddled together.

"When I come back, let's make up a wedding."

Psyche hesitated slightly.

wedding?

Although she had dreamed of it when she was young, there was really no need for a wedding with their relationship.

And they parted ways soon, let alone talk about the future.

Psyche gave a long hum.

"No need..."

"You do not want it?"

Psyche lowered his eyes, "Have you ever seen a bride who doesn't know the groom's name?"

After hearing this, he actually smiled.

"You want to see me again?"

Psyche didn't know where his smile came from, but nodded sincerely.

The man scratched her round chin, "Psyche will really be disappointed, I am really ordinary, not even as pleasing as your little guard."

Psyche ignored it.

She just asked him modestly, "Then will you let me go?"

The stars above the head twinkle and twinkle rhythmically, and the boat swings leisurely.

After a moment of silence, he whispered a word lightly.

"of course."

……

The morning glow paints the whole sky like fire, the night gradually fades away, and a brand new day comes again.

When Psyche woke up, his body was covered with a small blanket and a pillow was placed under his head.

The people around me are long gone.

Psyche rubbed his sleepy eyes, and his mind recovered in a few seconds.

She clenches her fist.

After hesitating for so long before, it finally came to the most critical moment.

Let’s talk about Aldous, who lived in a tent in the forest for several days, thinking that his sincerity was enough to impress Psyche, but he didn’t expect that after a few days, she didn’t move at all.

Aldous couldn't help blaming Psyche for his lack of understanding of good people.

He noticed that Agnes was sneaky these days, so he secretly followed behind.

Sure enough, he spied Psyche secretly contacting Agnes, and the two were going to go to sea secretly behind his back.

"My dear sister, the matter of going to the Temple of God of Love is of great importance. In order to avoid unnecessary complications, you must not let Aldos know. We will meet at the pier tomorrow morning and go to the sea together to Koliat Island."

—he heard Psyche say so.

Ha ha.

Aldos wanted to sneer at that time, he waited for her in the forest for three days and three nights, and this is the answer he waited for?

She really is hard but not soft.

When she was ruthlessly sacrificed to that monster, she didn't want to kill the enemy and get out of trouble, but fell in love with that monster instead.

But he, Aldous, devoted himself wholeheartedly to her and endured countless hardships in order to save her from the monster, but she ignored him and treated him more indifferently than an enemy.

He also said what he should confess, and he also persuaded him to stay, but her heart still didn't move at all.

Aldous has a fiery temper, and loves to get into a dead end when things happen.

As for Psyche, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and the more he thought about it, the more unwilling he became.

After he returned to the camp, he kicked the tent to pieces.Then hid in the dark and knocked Agnes unconscious.

Anyway, Psyche wanted to go to sea, he didn't go to sea with someone, he simply went instead of Agnes.

Aldous got his things ready, came to the pier ahead of time, and waited for Psyche.

He was afraid that the girl would play tricks, so he hung Agnes's cloak on a tree, facing the sea breeze, to lure Psyche over.

After waiting for a while, the girl appeared on the pier.

She was wearing a long gauze dress that was easy to move, with a pair of watery eyebrows that seemed to be frowning, and her slender body was even more beautiful and moving under the sea breeze, like an elf in the wind.

Seeing her like this, Aldous's eyeballs couldn't help but get bloodshot.

Holding a bramble branch, he slowly came out of the shadows.

The girl quickly saw him, and took a step back in displeasure.

"why you?"

Aldos was startled when he saw her, and tried to calm his rough voice, "Princess, I have been waiting for you here for a long time, don't you want to ask the old sea wolf to take you out to sea? I will take you there."

Psyche's brows and eyes dimmed obviously, "Stop messing around. Where is Agnes?"

Aldos took a step closer, and the huge shadow completely surrounded her, "I have thrown that treacherous woman into the forest. Don't worry, with me by your side, no danger can get close to you."

Psyche snorted lightly, how could he agree.

She came to the pier as promised. She had an appointment with Agnes.

Now that Aldous has stepped in, it can be regarded as messing up all her plans.

Psyche was about to turn around and leave immediately.

She'd rather hold off on action than team up with an unreliable partner... not to mention Aldous had lied to her and hurt her sister.

"Psyche!"

Aldos stopped her coldly, shaking the bramble branch in his hand, "What did I do wrong that you want to do this to me?"

Psyche pinched his knuckles and turned his head, intending to reason with Aldous, but suddenly caught a glimpse of the thing in his hand.

The branches of Jingmu have always had the effect of making people faint instantly.

The majestic expression of the man was unquestionable, as if to say: It is impossible to leave him.

"Anyway, if you want to go to sea, with whom?"

Aldos stepped forward quickly, and couldn't help but speak a little fast, "Princess, can you stop treating me as an enemy? Tell me where you are going, and I will take you there."

Psyche watched his words and saw that Aldous's face turned purple, like a volcano about to erupt, and he was full of resentment.

His burly figure was firmly in front of her. It seemed that she refused to agree and refused to give up.

Psyche squeezed his fist.

I can only go all out.

She ignored Aldous and jumped into the boat.
