[Greek mythology] Lord of Hades

Chapter 9



Dozing off, Zeus fell asleep by candlelight.

Occasionally, the rustling sound of pages turning was deliberately lightened, as if the beating notes had penetrated into a dream, bringing unspeakable peace of mind.The next day, he woke up sleepily with his eyes open, and the candle had already been extinguished.Just when he was about to say hello to Hades happily, he found a shocking thing - he was sleeping on the desk, and Hades was sleeping on the bed.

Zeus: "..." Tears were about to fall.

Hades, whom he thought he had been with all night, lay quietly on the bed, his slender eyelashes cast a light shadow, his breathing was slow, and his cheeks leaning against the pillow were as pale as pearls.Zeus looked along his loose long hair, the hair slipped from the side of the bed and fell to the ground, and was supported by the soft pure white blanket on the ground.

Pluto Hades.

It is recorded in the history of the gods: the god who dominates the land of death, he, himself, and another sea emperor named Poseidon are the masters of the three major domains.

In Zeus's mind, those descriptions about Pluto were automatically converted into: the other party has the right to fame and status. If it wasn't for the fact that he was not popular with the goddess because of his character at first, there must be a lot of gods who want to be the queen of the underworld. Hades, who loves the Golden Arrow, is forced to marry into Hades.

If you want to pursue him, the biggest problem arises.

Pluto didn't seem to intend to play tricks at all, and even after marrying the Queen of Pluto, he dismissed all the maids in Pluto's palace.

Sensing the movement on the desk, Hades opened his eyes before Zeus made a move, his lake-like emerald green pupils stared at the tiptoeing cat. "You're awake." A simple sentence skipped what happened last night. Hades didn't seem to see Zeus' depression. After getting off the bed, he went to the side hall to sort out his clothes without giving him any chance.

From the beginning to the end, Hades kept a certain distance from Zeus, not far or near, but alienated in the bones.The other party's amnesia was just an accident, and Hades didn't intend to let this accident deepen their relationship. He clearly knew that Zeus belonged to Mount Olympus, and behind the balance of the three realms, there were entanglements of grievances and grudges among the ancient gods.

——So far, this is his attitude.

Without Hades, the overly quiet atmosphere in the dormitory made Zeus throw away the book irritably.However, when he felt his movement in the main hall, Hades didn't think it was the reason for his absence. After all, he didn't talk often in the bedroom. Zeus was just bored in the closed environment.

"Go and call Thanatos."

In view of the temper of the gods of the underworld, he summoned to the servants of the gods his only subordinate who would not bring hatred to Mount Olympus.

Thanatos, the sleepy god who left work and was lazy, hurried to Hades Hall.

Seeing that His Majesty even temporarily put down the official duties that he never left his hands, he immediately solemnized his face, saluted meticulously and shouted: "Your Majesty." Hades didn't have time to keep him here, so he explained the matter bluntly: "Let God Make Hermes come and say I want to see him."

A Pluto wants to meet the god king's envoy, and his purpose instantly reminds the gods on Mount Olympus of a recent scandal. The god king pursues the sleeping god of the underworld.

Facing the Grim Reaper who came to 'invite' him to the past, Hermes could no longer maintain a smile on his handsome face. Goddamn God King, every time something happens, he must be called to settle the follow-up!He is just an envoy to convey the oracle, not a professional gatekeeper, watchman, and errand runner who spreads hatred for the god king!

Well, what he has done over the years has more gold content than running errands.

Hermes asked gloomily, "Thanatos, can you tell us how His Majesty Pluto is feeling right now?"

"It should be okay." Thanatos spread his hands and signaled the other party not to be too alert.Being blocked by the other party at the entrance of the temple, Hermes, who knew he had to go, had no choice but to sigh, took his scepter and followed Death.

Watching the two leave Mount Olympus, the figure of Apollo, the sun god, appeared at the entrance.Dazzling blond hair shawl, his brows are slightly frowned, he can't feel at ease due to the change in the priesthood some time ago, although he hasn't told any gods about this matter, but he uses the sun to pay close attention to the situation of the gods, still Can't find where the problem comes from.

It wasn't until Zeus hadn't returned to Mount Olympus for more than ten days that Apollo had a faint guess in his heart.

"Brother, what are you looking at here?" Artemis' voice came from behind him. Apollo blinked to hide the thought on his face, and looked back at his sister with a smile, "Are you going out? By the way Bring back some of humanity's latest sheet music."

Lifting the moon-like silver hair by his ears, Artemis rolled his eyes ungracefully, "I know, I will bring it for you every time."

After finishing speaking, she walked briskly down Mount Olympus.

Apollo couldn't help smiling. The ease of him and his sister stemmed from the fact that they were the twelve main gods, so they would never allow their status to be shaken.Sweeping across the palace of the Queen of God in the distance, a sneer appeared on the corner of Apollo's lips, and then he walked back to the Temple of the Sun as if nothing had happened.

Every move is in line with the elegance and dignity of the eldest son of the god king.

Then, it pierced Hera's heart like a sharp thorn, and at the same time proved how unreliable Zeus' heart was.

Thinking that Zeus hadn't returned yet, Hera in the Queen's Hall took a deep breath, sat in front of the dressing table and stared coldly at the jealous face in the mirror.Zeus did fulfill the promise of "the only wife", but what she wanted was not only the title of wife!

Should she be lucky, this time the target of the report is Sleeping God, so that she doesn't have to worry about the other party hindering her status.

"Zeus, you bastard, don't come back if you have the ability!"

"Boom—" the mirror was smashed.

For a while, the servants in the Queen's palace were silent, for fear of offending Hera at this time.

Outside the Hall of Hades, Zeus could not feel the resentment of the Queen of God. He was rarely allowed by Hades to come out of the bedroom and enjoy his own air in the garden of the apse.This heartless attitude made Hermes toothache, "Your Majesty, I heard from His Majesty Pluto that you have lost some memory. Do you still remember how to host the celebration?"

After a while, it will be the celebration of the gods on Mount Olympus, which is why Hades seized the time to find Hermes.

Zeus rested his chin on the tea table, his eyes showing surprise: "Of course I don't remember."

"..." Hermes choked back the words immediately, I don't know why you are still talking so cheerfully!

Both prosperity and loss, as the famous envoy on Mount Olympus, Hermes has offended many gods, how can he just watch his backer go wrong.So he not only had to keep the secret, but also had to help Zeus retrieve his memory with a bitter face, so that the once-a-thousand-year celebration of the gods would not go wrong.

There is no doubt about Zeus' ability to learn, which made Hermes a lot easier in the next few days, and he only needed to make up for him the internal relationships of various gods.Hearing that Persephone and Hades were divorced, Zeus's lazy expression changed, and his body sat up straight from the chair.

"He's divorced? Is there any possibility of remarriage?"

"It's unlikely."

Hermes looked at him with a tangled face, but Zeus was immersed in joy.

When Zeus learned the specific process from his son, his bright smile froze on his face.Hermes gloated and added: "Your Majesty, it is really His Majesty Pluto who has been merciful for you to be able to live in the Hades Palace." Who made Mount Olympus gossip a lot, but the most explosive content was that Zeus almost went whoring. Killed Persephone, resulting in the divorce of Hades and Queen Hades.

Pluto is really good-tempered.

Hermes secretly sighed, why does His Majesty who he follows like to die so much.

When night fell, Hades had just turned back to the bedroom when he saw Zeus with blank eyes.He was a little surprised in his heart, but he ignored Zeus, turned around and took out the books he was going to read tonight from the bookshelf.Hermes must know a lot of things, and it is understandable that he accidentally ruined Zeus's three views.

"Hades..."

"What's the matter?"

Putting down the pages of the book with his fingers, Hades still didn't look at him.

Suddenly there was no sound again.

Hades' eyebrows moved slightly, and finally gave Zeus a little face, and looked towards the bed. "..." He really didn't know what to say, Zeus in front of him wrapped himself up in a ball, his long golden hair fell on the dark bedding, and he buried his face in the pillow childishly.

The image of the king of gods...

Is it okay to go back to Mount Olympus in this state?

"What's wrong?" Hades walked over and pulled the quilt off him with his fingers.After only opening a corner, he quickly covered the quilt back, his face covered with a layer of chill, "Why are you running to my bed and sleeping naked?" Zeus raised his head when he heard these words, his handsome face flushed , The blue eyes look dewy and pitiful.

"Hermes said that's what I did on Mount Olympus, I just got used to it."

"...You can quit this habit."

Hades looked at the occupied bed and the guy lying on the bed, and said word by word.

Zeus's response to this was to bend his eyes, and he didn't care that when Hermes came to him the next day, he was shocked by the scene.He temporarily lived in Hades, so he came earlier, and Hades happened to put the books on the table back on the shelf, and passed Hermes with a calm expression.

Hermes swallowed, and looked in disbelief at the completely naked God King on the bed.

"What are you going to do? No, what have you already done?"

"I'm going after Hades, can't I?"

Stretching his vigorous limbs on the bed, Zeus looked like a cheetah that couldn't be more lazy. As soon as he uttered these words of course, Hades, who walked out of the bedroom not far away, paused, and then walked away as if he hadn't heard.
