No matter what, he still didn't want to get involved in the war between the two gods. If he could hide his identity as much as possible, then of course this would be the most satisfying thing for Helios.
Let Zeus's brothers and sisters make trouble, and a little god like him should not get involved as cannon fodder.
Zeus leaned on his chin thoughtfully and asked, "How did you find out?"
Prometheus bowed his head so as not to meet Zeus' eyes.He tried to hide his nervousness with a respectful tone.
He knew that he was deceiving the God King.But he had to do this, whether it was to protect the human beings he created or the stable life of his friend Helios, he had to deceive Zeus.
"I found the nymphs next to the three goddesses. Although they concealed it intentionally, I still noticed the problem." Prometheus sorted out the emotions in his heart, raised his head and let his eyes look directly at Zeus, with a sincere expression , "His Royal Highness Pluto left some traces when he left. I guess it has something to do with Hades."
Zeus snorted suddenly, and looked at Prometheus with unclear eyes. After seeing his seemingly unfaltering expression, Zeus praised: "Prometheus, you really deserve to be the one I trust the most. How shall I reward you, my friend, son of Iapetus."
Iapetus, the father of Prometheus, who helped Cronus in the Titan War, is now suppressed with his brother under Tartarus.Prometheus didn't know what he meant, but subconsciously thumped in his heart.
Conquering the uneasiness in his expression, he forced a smile on his face, looking sincere.
"I don't need any rewards, I just hope that the Goddess of Agriculture can stop the wrath that befalls the human world after she retrieves her child."
Zeus nodded seriously, and praised: "If every god is as dedicated as you are, then I will be relieved."
Prometheus backed away slowly without saying a word, and Zeus turned his eyes around the three gods, and put away the smile on his face.
"Leave all of you, I will contact Demeter later." His voice was light, his emotions were completely opposite to those just now, but the three gods felt the anger that had been endured for a long time.
Athena and Artemis were unwilling to face Demeter directly, and they knew the anger in his heart when they saw him like this, so they left here obediently.
Prometheus glanced at Zeus hesitantly. After Zeus responded to his gaze, he still didn't intend to anger the god king after all, and turned and left.
After they left, Zeus contemplated for a long time where Prometheus had just stood.
Prometheus lied to him.
The point is not who he deceived himself for, but the fact that he deceived the God King.
As an existence close to the god king, he would actually do such a thing, and it was already difficult for him to gain Zeus' trust.
Now he is only deceiving himself for a source of information, so next time, will he do something that will harm the interests of him, the king of God.
Zeus has never hesitated to speculate on the selfishness of all things. Even Prometheus, for the sake of what he wants to protect, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not use his interests in exchange for it.
The reason why Prometheus, a useful guy, was accepted at the beginning was because of his ingenuity, but when this intellect started to want to deal with himself, Zeus would not let this guy do what he wanted.
These smart guys just like to play some tricks, but they don't know that these little cleverness has long been seen clearly by the eagle above the sky.
Zeus showed a mocking smile, in which was the disappearance of trust in Prometheus.
Now that this bold guy decided to use his cleverness against himself, let's find a reason to deal with him.
Calling his messenger Iris, Zeus asked her to find Demeter for him.
Demeter and Hades?
His brother was always hiding in the underworld and was unwilling to come out, so it was time to make trouble for him.
**
When Lachesis returned to the temple, Eros was still waiting for him.
The tall young man stood under the snowflakes, and the crystal white snow fell on his long golden hair, making him look extremely holy.
Lachesis ran to his side, and grabbed Eros's outstretched right hand.
"Is the matter resolved?" Eros looked at the top of his hair, looking extremely focused.
Lachesis nodded, intending to tell what was discussed with Themis: "Let me discuss the matter of Hades with Themis."
Eros immediately showed a curious look on his face, satisfying his rare gossip desire very politely.
Lachesis felt his importance from inside, and the bad information from Themis was completely dispelled in such a sight.
Lachesis led him into the hall, waited inside, and told him what he knew.
"It's nothing unexpected." Eros took his hand, showing a satisfied smile as he stared at him curiously.
He came to his arms with Lachesis in his arms, and patiently explained to him: "If Hades fell in love at first sight, then there is nothing strange. You must know that love comes so unexpectedly for gods, just like I do the same to you."
Lachesis was already prepared, but he didn't expect him to say such a sentence suddenly, and the whole paragraph, including his own mentality, immediately collapsed.
He was dissatisfied, and muttered in a low voice: "You said you were analyzing Hades, why did you start talking about yourself?"
"Doesn't proper boasting take advantage of the development of feelings?" Eros shot at the right time, touching his eyes, leaving a blush on his fair cheeks.
Lachesis grabbed his restless arm, hugged him in his arms and said, "You have to finish talking soon." Every intimate act of Eros can make his heart fluctuate, which is really not conducive The chat was carried on.
"Tie your hands up again." Lachesis endured the shyness in his heart, but still couldn't hold back his violent words.
Eros paused suspiciously for a moment.
Lachesis thought of what he had said, and was tongue-tied to explain, but no useful words came out of his mouth.
Eros usually teases him, and he also wants to make that guy stop talking, but looking at it now, it seems to be messed up.
"Really." Eros suddenly sighed, and hugged him even tighter, "If you are so cute, I will really lock us together."
Lachesis stared at him blankly, and Eros could see all his expressions from the angle of his head.
After removing a piece of his own hair, Eros reached out and used it to tie the wrists of himself and Lachesis.
The thin strands of hair were unimaginably tough, and Lachesis tugged on his wrist but did not let them separate.
Eros' kiss was imprinted on his shoulder, with an extremely hot touch.
"Use this instead first." He hugged Lachesis tightly and held him in his arms, "I'm waiting for you to tie us together with your own hands."
God's time is very long, he also has enough time to wait, and he has to slowly recognize himself.
Lachesis' ears were flushed, and he urged him: "I'm not talking about Hades, let's continue."
Eros looked at the blush on his face from nervousness, smiled, and stopped teasing him.
"Do you remember the day Hades left?"
Lachesis thought about it carefully, and said, "He seems very anxious." Although Hades has a cold personality, he is quite safe in major matters.It is indeed strange to leave these guests alone like this.
"That kind of anxiety was the trigger that triggered him to kidnap Persephone." Eros said, "This is fundamentally different from the sudden liking." It's just that Hades obeyed the guidance of fate.
"Essentially speaking, this incident will not cause him any trouble, and she does not need to resist the law for this kind of thing." Eros touched the soft flesh on the side of his neck and said, "Hades didn't think about letting him Whoever becomes her wife, the arrival of Persephone will not have any conflict with his decision, in the end it is just an extra guest in Hades."
Lachesis knew that he was right, and after nodding, he did not argue.
Eros narrowed his eyes slightly, and there seemed to be shattered ice in the blue eyes.He dragged Lachesis' cheek, leaned closer to him and said, "But I believe that Lachesis will not be affected by these?"
His confident appearance actually aroused Lachesis' desire to attack him, so he asked curiously: "Then what if I was affected, for example, the power of Cupid suddenly affected me?" on the body."
Eros raised his eyebrows, thinking that he should defend himself: "Then I have to explain first, I was able to attract my lovely Lachesis because of my own charm."
"Sweet words." Lachesis pulled his hair, but did not refute his narcissistic words.
He actually thought there was nothing wrong with that.
Eros hugged him in his arms and smiled.
Demeter moved quickly, and before Lachesis took a closer look at what happened, Persephone had already been found by him.
After negotiating with Hades for a long time, Demeter, who originally planned to take her daughter away, could only compromise under the power of Pomegranate.
The pomegranate in the underworld made Persephone have to stay in the underworld for a while. Demeter had no choice but to agree to allow her daughter to stay in the underworld for four months a year to become the queen of the underworld.
"That is to say, although the human world will not have winter all year round, it will have four months to endure late autumn and icy winter." It turns out that this world has become winter for this reason.
"If I remember correctly, new humans should be born. Back then, the silver humans would have been frozen to death, and the new humans might have to face the same crisis." Lachesis frowned slightly, "I just don't know this time Zeus is willing to give the fire of heaven to mankind."
According to the myths he had seen, Zeus should not have given humans the fire, otherwise Prometheus would not have stolen the fire.
"Zeus shouldn't do this," Eros said.
Although the new God King's personality is not very gentle, he is not so strict with humans, so there must be no problem.
"Maybe." Lachesis looked at the water mirror, a hint of worry appeared in his eyes.
**
Prometheus stands on the ground, surrounded by new humans, and only men still exist among humans.They have healthy bodies, strong physiques, courage to face dangers bravely, and wisdom given to them by Athena.
However, all these are so powerless in the face of natural disasters.
I thought that the white snow on the land of Persephone would disappear, but I didn't expect that human beings would still have to face the severe winter and live in it.
Winter brings not only severe cold, but also the reduction of prey and the sharp reduction of food.Severe cold and hunger are the fates these new humans have to face.
However, even so, they still have to give too many offerings to the gods.
Prometheus clenched his fists, full of resentment.
If it was in the past, humans would still have enough food to fill their stomachs after offering sacrifices to the gods every year, but now it is different.
If it is still the same as before, human beings will definitely be starved to death.
You have to think of a way.
Looking at the child in front of him who was only as tall as his calf, Prometheus made a decision in his heart.
Today he is going to ask Zeus about offerings. As long as he can find opportunities, it is not impossible to reduce the burden on mankind.
The majestic and majestic temple was right in front of him. Prometheus squeezed his palms and looked behind.
Several god attendants were following behind him carrying the sacrificial bull.
"Come in with me." He calmed his voice and tried to use a steady tone.
The god attendant followed him into the temple.
Seeing him coming, Zeus said with a smile: "Prometheus, I heard that you have created new humans again, and they must be better than before."
Prometheus smiled, but said nothing.
He motioned to the god attendant to carry the sacrificed bull behind him to Zeus.
"Great Heavenly Father, please choose one of the items that will be sacrificed as a human being."
Zeus glanced over both portions of meat.
The one on the left looks much larger, and it is wrapped in a layer of butter, which looks like a very rich tribute.
The one on the right looks much smaller.On top of him, there is even a piece of cow's heart.
After Zeus glanced over them, a smile of unknown meaning appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Prometheus, which one do you want me to choose?"
"It's up to you to choose." Prometheus hastily rejected, "No matter what, humans will do what you want."
Zeus still had no direct choice, and continued to ask: "Do you think these two things seem unfair."
Prometheus still said the original words: "As long as it is your choice, no matter how much it is, humans will do it."
Zeus sneered in his heart, looked at his respectful expression, and said again: "In the past, it was enough to pay half of the things. Now it is too detrimental to human beings."
Prometheus still did not change the original wording.
Zeus sighed, sure that he really needed a real smart person to do things.
He gave Prometheus three chances, but he didn't seize them, so there was no need to keep such a smart guy by his side.
He could see clearly the bones wrapped in butter at a glance, but Zeus touched it with his hand.
Prometheus mocked in his heart.
Zeus said to be considerate of human beings, didn't he choose the one that seemed too much in the end?
Prometheus was very disappointed, as was Zeus.
He used his divine power to peel off the layer of butter on the top, and showed the offering with only bones in front of Prometheus, and said with a sneer, "Is this your answer to me, Prometheus?"
Prometheus was at a loss for a moment, looking at him in surprise.
Zeus continued: "Are you relying too much on your own wisdom, or are you treating me as a fool?" The godhead of Metis still remained in his mind, but Prometheus thought he could be fooled, which was too much. Too sarcastic.
"Go away with your tricks and these offerings." Zeus let them fly to Prometheus' feet, even splattering his entrails.
"Because of your deceit to me, I will take back one thing that was bestowed upon mankind."
Prometheus opened his eyes wide, and Athena's words began to appear in his ears: In this weather, it would be much better if humans had fire.
He hoped in his heart that it would never be that kind of thing, but Zeus was not as good as he wanted.
"I will take back the fire that was given to mankind."
One sentence made all the strength in Prometheus's body drain, and beat him out of his wits.
Zeus warned coldly: "I hope you will remember the lesson this time and leave."
Prometheus looked gloomy, and when he walked out of the temple, his head was bowed, and he no longer had the confidence he had before.
His strategy still failed. Zeus saw his strategy and taught him a big lesson.
It was his arrogance that made mankind lose the opportunity to own fire.
Looking at the cold temple behind him, Prometheus thought about countermeasures in his heart.
Lachesis retracted the water mirror, taking in Prometheus' loss and the unwillingness in his eyes.
"He's too reckless."
Eros nodded: "Similarly, he underestimated Zeus too much."
Maybe Zeus's usual behavior blinded too many gods, so that they only saw Zeus's cruelty and romance, but they forgot that Zeus sitting in the temple was a god-king.In him is also the wisdom and the decisive and cold heart of Metis.
Lachesis didn't need to guess what happened after that, he already knew what was going to happen.
A very important act of Prometheus - stealing fire is about to begin.
It was here that he was punished by Zeus by being tied to a rock in the Caucasus Mountains and having his liver eaten by a hungry eagle.
However, no one can stop his actions.
For human beings, Prometheus has an indomitable dedication, but I don't know where it comes from.
After a while, Zeus' roar suddenly spread throughout the world.
Prometheus stole the fire after all.
Lachesis saw Prometheus again on the Caucasus Mountains. At that time, he was tied to a huge rock by chains, and he looked embarrassed.
He no longer looked like a god, his whole body was in tatters, especially the position of his heart. In order to make it easier to eat his heart, Hungry Eagle tore a big hole there.
"I didn't expect you to be the first to see me." Prometheus raised his head and smiled wryly.
Lachesis wondered, "Is there anything wrong with me?"
Seeing his complete ignorance, Prometheus said, "I used to hate you. After all, you were responsible for the disappearance of the golden humans."
"Oh." Lachesis nodded, calmly.
Prometheus didn't expect him to respond like this, and said, "Will you still look at me with such a calm expression when you hear me say that?"
Lachesis: "Your resentment can't bring me any substantial harm, let alone if you don't say it, I'm not interested in knowing."
He spoke so bluntly, Prometheus didn't know that he was really not interested, so he fell silent.
"Actually, I'm quite curious." Seeing that he didn't plan to say anything, Lachesis said, "Why are you so special to humans? Even many humans don't even know what you have done, and still respectfully sacrifice to Zeus. worship."
This question was like a key, making Prometheus' eyes shine.Like a fanatical believer, he stared at the sky with bright eyes and said: "What do you think drives the development of all things?"
Lachesis tilted her head, waiting for him to continue.
Prometheus didn't speak for a long time, and didn't expect to wait for his answer, so he took it on his own: "It's creation."
He continued: "Chaos created the original gods, and then there were the second-generation gods and now the new gods."
"And I created humans."
Lachesis' face moved, and he continued to speak.
"The gods will eventually become a thing of the past, and the human beings created by me are the ones who destroy them." Prometheus' eyes were full of longing, which was his conviction of his actions.
Seeing his excited look, Lachesis still didn't mention the fact that the human beings he created in the future will basically be bullied by the gods.
Then it will have to be much later, that is, after this generation of human beings.That was the advent of the age of heroes, and the only human being who could leave a strong chapter in the story of the gods.
Heroes are mostly a combination of humans and gods.
And they are also proud of the blood of the gods.
Prometheus fixed his eyes on him, and said in a questioning tone: "God in charge of fate, then can you tell me, what I think is right?"
Lachesis looked at him and smiled, but said nothing.
In a way, what Prometheus said made sense, but it wasn't true.
The gods may be destroyed one day after all, but that is not all because of the existence of human beings.
When the rules and regulations no longer allow them to survive, no amount of effort will be possible.
The same is true for humans.
Prometheus knew that he didn't agree with him, so he didn't defend too much, but said: "Can you please bring a word for my brother, I'm leaving too fast, I'm afraid he will encounter some danger."
Lachesis nodded: "Speak."
"Tell him not to accept Zeus's gift, no matter what it is." Prometheus understood the god king, and his vengeance was definitely not as simple as tying himself to the Caucasus Mountains for punishment.
Let Zeus's brothers and sisters make trouble, and a little god like him should not get involved as cannon fodder.
Zeus leaned on his chin thoughtfully and asked, "How did you find out?"
Prometheus bowed his head so as not to meet Zeus' eyes.He tried to hide his nervousness with a respectful tone.
He knew that he was deceiving the God King.But he had to do this, whether it was to protect the human beings he created or the stable life of his friend Helios, he had to deceive Zeus.
"I found the nymphs next to the three goddesses. Although they concealed it intentionally, I still noticed the problem." Prometheus sorted out the emotions in his heart, raised his head and let his eyes look directly at Zeus, with a sincere expression , "His Royal Highness Pluto left some traces when he left.

Calling his messenger Iris, Zeus asked her to find Demeter for him.
Demeter and Hades?
His brother was always hiding in the underworld and was unwilling to come out, so it was time to make trouble for him.

When Lachesis returned to the temple, Eros was still waiting for him.
The tall young man stood under the snowflakes, and the crystal white snow fell on his long golden hair, making him look extremely holy.

However, all these are so powerless in the face of natural disasters.
I thought that the white snow on the land of Persephone would disappear, but I didn't expect that human beings would still have to face the severe winter and live in it.

Lachesis didn't need to guess what happened after that, he already knew what was going to happen.
A very important act of Prometheus - stealing fire is about to begin.
It was here that he was punished by Zeus by being tied to a rock in the Caucasus Mountains and having his liver eaten by a hungry eagle.
However, no one can stop his actions.
For human beings, Prometheus has an indomitable dedication, but I don't know where it comes from.
After a while, Zeus' roar suddenly spread throughout the world.
Prometheus stole the fire after all.
Lachesis saw Prometheus again on the Caucasus Mountains. At that time, he was tied to a huge rock by chains, and he looked embarrassed.
He no longer looked like a god, his whole body was in tatters, especially the position of his heart. In order to make it easier to eat his heart, Hungry Eagle tore a big hole there.
"I didn't expect you to be the first to see me." Prometheus raised his head and smiled wryly.
Lachesis wondered, "Is there anything wrong with me?"
Seeing his complete ignorance, Prometheus said, "I used to hate you. After all, you were responsible for the disappearance of the golden humans."
"Oh." Lachesis nodded, calmly.
Prometheus didn't expect him to respond like this, and said, "Will you still look at me with such a calm expression when you hear me say that?"
Lachesis: "Your resentment can't bring me any substantial harm, let alone if you don't say it, I'm not interested in knowing."
He spoke so bluntly, Prometheus didn't know that he was really not interested, so he fell silent.
"Actually, I'm quite curious." Seeing that he didn't plan to say anything, Lachesis said, "Why are you so special to humans? Even many humans don't even know what you have done, and still respectfully sacrifice to Zeus. worship."
This question was like a key, making Prometheus' eyes shine.Like a fanatical believer, he stared at the sky with bright eyes and said: "What do you think drives the development of all things?"
Lachesis tilted her head, waiting for him to continue.
Prometheus didn't speak for a long time, and didn't expect to wait for his answer, so he took it on his own: "It's creation."
He continued: "Chaos created the original gods, and then there were the second-generation gods and now the new gods."
"And I created humans."
Lachesis' face moved, and he continued to speak.
"The gods will eventually become a thing of the past, and the human beings created by me are the ones who destroy them." Prometheus' eyes were full of longing, which was his conviction of his actions.
Seeing his excited look, Lachesis still didn't mention the fact that the human beings he created in the future will basically be bullied by the gods.
Then it will have to be much later, that is, after this generation of human beings.That was the advent of the age of heroes, and the only human being who could leave a strong chapter in the story of the gods.
Heroes are mostly a combination of humans and gods.
And they are also proud of the blood of the gods.
Prometheus fixed his eyes on him, and said in a questioning tone: "God in charge of fate, then can you tell me, what I think is right?"
Lachesis looked at him and smiled, but said nothing.
In a way, what Prometheus said made sense, but it wasn't true.
The gods may be destroyed one day after all, but that is not all because of the existence of human beings.
When the rules and regulations no longer allow them to survive, no amount of effort will be possible.
The same is true for humans.
Prometheus knew that he didn't agree with him, so he didn't defend too much, but said: "Can you please bring a word for my brother, I'm leaving too fast, I'm afraid he will encounter some danger."
Lachesis nodded: "Speak."
"Tell him not to accept Zeus's gift, no matter what it is." Prometheus understood the god king, and his vengeance was definitely not as simple as tying himself to the Caucasus Mountains for punishment.
