[Greek mythology] Lord of Hades
Chapter 1
Above the sky, the majestic Mount Olympus stands in the clouds.
In the spacious and bright God King Hall, the God King throne at the top has lost its original controller. Just like Kronos drove away the first God King Uranus, the regime that belongs to the second generation God King Cronus has also been overthrown.This century-long battle ended with the victory of four generations of gods, and the three gods came to the God King Palace where the war was most concentrated in the past.
Here - the old system disappears, and the new system is about to be born with the king.
But there is only one king of the gods, but there are three gods who are eligible to inherit, and each of them is powerful, evenly matched.Prometheus, the god of wisdom, didn't want the three to have differences, so he put forward a suggestion: Let them use lottery to determine the division of the throne of the king of gods, king of the underworld, and king of the sea.
No matter which lottery they draw, they will be one of the three noble domain masters in the future, enjoying the glory of the king.
However, Hades, who participated in the lottery, knew nothing about these things.
He just woke up in a haze of consciousness, and then felt his fingers holding something.His head was slightly lowered, and the dark hair concealed the blankness in his eyes. In the range of his vision, he saw a wooden stick that was suspected to be used for lottery, and a short and strange text was engraved on it.
--hell.
He silently recited the word that he shouldn't know, something engraved in his heart was burning hot.
Who is he?
It seems that I accidentally forgot something.
Obviously, one second he was still rushing to work in the steel-like city, but the next second, his memory was much blank, and his body was filled with a feeling of incompatibility and incomparable coordination.Even standing next to two handsome men with different temperaments, he still didn't reject strangers, but subconsciously maintained a calm expression on his face, as if...he was born like this.
"Hades, what did you draw?" A blue-haired man approached him, with a playful smile on his face that was far better than that of a movie star. He looked at him, his eyes were neither sharp nor deep, but It gives people a sense of beauty that is falling in love.
sign, what sign?Is this one in hand?
Following the burning gaze of the other party, he saw the word marked on the wooden sign again, which was [Hell].
He suddenly fell silent, combined with the name the blue-haired man said, if this is not a TV show, then his identity is Hades in Greek mythology.Thinking that he might be the future Pluto, he couldn't help but look at another key person present, no, to be precise, he was the man who should be called a god.
Realizing that he was looking at him, the blond man with masculine and handsome features smiled slightly, and his half-armored attire looked even more heroic.
He opened his mouth and shouted to this side: "Brother."
After confirming his identity, Hades felt relieved, the corners of his straight lips curled up slightly, and his smile lines were extremely shallow, making him look particularly unreal.For a long time, he seemed to have not spoken for a long time, his voice was hoarse and slow, like an ancient book whose pages were gently turned, "My signature, hell."
Zeus's expression remained unchanged, seemingly calm, but in fact he was bound to win.
Of course, this emotion can only be seen by Hades, who has been spoiled by the spoiler. In the eyes of Poseidon, Zeus refused to show it even if his heart was beating.
As the eldest brother, Hades finished drawing lots, and it was Poseidon's turn to step forward next.Knowing that there were only two lottery left in the box to determine the final position of God-King, Poseidon still had a winning smile on his face, but as the wooden stick was drawn out, his expression froze, and his eyes fixed on the lottery. [Sea Realm] written on the signature.
If you use the language of modern people, his heart is nothing more than being brushed by the word 'fuck'.
Although the lottery for Hell and Sea Realm had been drawn, Zeus still went to draw the lottery.His sharp eyebrows raised an elegant arc, he shook the lottery in his hand, and said with a smile: "The sky."
Poseidon's face was cloudy and uncertain, and finally he gave Zeus a fierce look, and left angrily.
With this walk, he admitted that he was not destined for the throne of God.
Hades didn't know the way, so naturally he didn't dare to stay in this temple for a long time. Before leaving, he glanced at Zeus who was staying in the temple of the god king.Probably because Hades' eyes were too cold, Zeus's expression was slightly stiff, and he avoided his eyes with some discomfort.
Out of distrust of Zeus, Hades had already discovered that the way he held the stick was quite skillful, and there was actually no writing on the wooden stick.
He lowered his eyelids, feeling anger rise in himself who wouldn't mind meddling.
— This is cheating.
Hades silently walked to the outside of the Temple of the King of Gods. He didn't say anything, but it didn't mean he didn't point out Zeus's problem in his attitude. Presumably there must be Rhea outside the hall.Ironically recalling this myth and legend, Hades unknowingly assumed the current role, feeling an indescribable feeling.
"Wait!" Zeus suddenly stopped him.
Hades paused, but the wooden stick he was holding made his favorability drop below the bottom, so he ignored it and left.
The second who called to him was Rhea, goddess of time, mother goddess of Hades.
Rhea, who was standing outside the hall waiting for her sons, looked worried. When she saw him walking out, she called softly: "Hades." He found a terrible thing - he couldn't remember his identity information, couldn't remember the names and looks of his family members before time travel, including the mother who was really gentle and selfless to him.
Looking at the body of the goddess, Hades's eyes flashed with sorrow, and he walked down Mount Olympus numbly following the instructions of his heart.Before he reached the bottom of the stairs, Zeus who rushed behind him grabbed his wrist.The dry palms are strong and powerful, and it seems that even the beating pulse of each other is conveyed between the palms.
Turning his head in doubt, he saw Zeus's sharp eagle eyes and his lips opened...
What does this future three-generation god king seem to be talking about?
The picture was broken, the bustling Mount Olympus turned into colorful distorted colors, and the world fell into a strange silence.It's so quiet that you can only hear the wind blowing through the petals and the river, bringing a ripple that penetrates the dream.
Hades opened his eyes from his sleep, and smelled the familiar scent of ghostly flowers in his nostrils.He sat up slowly, his emerald green pupils reflected the extravagant red sea of flowers, and he had been lying in the sea of flowers all over the sky before, lazily taking a nap after finishing his official duties.
He looked at the sea of flowers calmly, he didn't expect that the short sleep would make him dream about things tens of thousands of years ago.
At that time, he thought he had just transmigrated into Hades.
The sound of footsteps brushing against the flowers broke Hades' memories of the past.He didn't turn his head back. On the banks of the Styx River, which was ordered to be forbidden to enter, except for the god of death and the god of sleep, he would come to him openly.Moreover, if the other party is looking for something to disturb his leisure, Hades will definitely let this comer enjoy the overtime party in Hades.
As he expected, it was Hypnos, the god of sleep.
Hypnos stood three meters away from Pluto with a smile. After saluting, he said, "Your Majesty seems to have had a good dream." He may not be able to see through Hades in other ways, but in the priesthood of sleep, He smelled an unmistakable breath.
Hades heard the words of Sleeping God, and replied indifferently: "I don't have a good dream, but I have an ominous premonition."
The chat ended here, and Hades stood up from the flowers of the other shore flower with his arms supported.His long black hair fell down to his knees, and his emerald green eyes were pure and flawless, as cold and clear as his demeanor.Hades walked towards the Hall of Hades, and Hypnos followed him wisely to report his official duties.
However, he did not forget the most important point today, and reported: "Your Majesty, His Highness Tartarus wants to talk to you."
"Are you sure you didn't say anything wrong?" Hades raised his eyes, staring at the subordinate who said these words with eyes that couldn't see the joy and anger, revealing a slight chill. "Since the last time I saw His Highness Tartarus, I haven't seen him for tens of thousands of years. Why don't I remember having something to talk about with him?"
"I don't know about that." Hypnos lowered his eyebrows and his voice was soft.
Although Hades doesn't really want to meet the master of the abyss, it's irrational to dismiss a first-generation god in face, especially if the first-generation god is still his immediate boss.
The meeting between the two house gods was naturally very dull, there was no extra politeness, they sat opposite each other, and there was a sudden silence for a while.
Hades looked at him indifferently, and could enter the state of fugue at any time, until Tartarus felt that he could sit for a day without speaking, and then said quietly: "The first god king Uranus escaped from prison."
Hades said, "Oh."
Tartarus looked at him strangely, and added: "...It happened today."
Hades said: "Apart from that, do you have anything else to do with me?"
"You look calm." Tartarus automatically ignored Hades' intention to end the conversation, tapped his fingers on the armrest of the throne, and said slowly, "If you think I can find him easily Wrong, Uranus covered his breath with a treasure, and I couldn't sense his whereabouts in the Nether Abyss."
Hades immediately screened out the current treasures in his mind, and there was only one treasure that could completely eliminate traces, his helmet 'Cunei'!His face changed slightly, and he asked under Tartarus' calm gaze: "Your Highness, may I ask who stole my helmet?"
Tartarus nodded approvingly, and said, "Your queen, Persephone."
Hades was silent: "..."
Fortunately, he thought it was a bold foreign god, but it turned out to be the goddess of spring who had been kept in the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.
"I don't know how she came into contact with Uranus. It's just that the giants guarding him are drunk. You can go and check if there is a large reduction in the brewing in Hades." Tartarus said, thinking deeply How difficult it is to get drunk on those idiots.At the beginning, it was because of this characteristic that he chose the Cyclops and the Hundred-armed God who had hatred against Uranus as the guardians.
Hades pondered for a moment and asked, "Are Kronos and the rest of the Titans okay?"
"I can't guarantee this." Tartarus chuckled when he heard the words, and his words seemed particularly malicious, "After all, I only promised Gaia to guard the first generation of God King Uranus and the second generation of God King Cronus The problem is your own responsibility."
Hades met his gaze expressionlessly, and there seemed to be a smell of gunpowder escaping between the two equally cool-toned eyes.
After accepting so many gifts back then, do you dare to be more deceitful!
