[Greek mythology] Queen of the gods

Argos?

Hera raised her eyebrows, quickly passed the name in her mind, and then remembered the eyes of the big man who was not a young man now, and then realized that this guy was the one used by the original owner to persecute Zeus, some kind of lover. Is it a giant?But this guy was rather sad, he was beheaded by Hermes, and the original owner used those eyes to decorate peacock feathers.

When he first learned about this popular science, Hera said that he never wanted to go to the zoo to see peacocks in modern times.Now this Argos is standing obediently like a puppy, looking at him with sincere and warm eyes, it seems that he really wants to be his new master.

But thinking of this young guy before his transformation, Hera felt a chill. He thought he couldn't be as big-hearted as the original owner and put a hundred-eyed giant by his side.

"Argus, I don't think I need an attendant like you." After that, Hera called her carriage without looking at Argus's hurt look, and was about to take Leto and the two sisters away. This is a place of right and wrong.

Seeing that Hera was about to leave, Argus ran to Hera, bowed his head and said, "When you defeat Piton, you are destined to be my master."

"Pitong?" Hera frowned, as if she had heard the name somewhere, but when she was about to speak to confirm her guess, Asteria said first: "Hera, that was raised by Gaia." Monster!" When he said this, Asteria's fair face was full of resentment.

Hera asked again: "I know that, but shouldn't Piton be at Delphi?" Why did he come to the island of Kos and specifically trouble the two sisters of Leto.

Asteria's flushed face almost turned green after hearing Hera's words, "Leto and I were going to Delphi to announce to the locals the oracle that the mother goddess gave us. Pitong actually chased us down as intruders, and what's even more exasperating is that he was..." After speaking, Asteria was caught by Leto, who was silent at the side, and then closed his mouth. Two dignified Titans were hunted down to the island of Kos by a monster. Any god would laugh when they heard this.

"Pito has always listened to Gaia..." Hera's eyes darkened, wondering if the two sisters in front of her offended Gaia?

Before Hera could figure it out, Leto hid a smile and said, "Maybe Gaia didn't know where Asteria and I were going to issue the oracle." He looked at the man who had just saved her and Astoria. Hera of Tyria, through the sunlight shining on the clumps of leaves, Hera's outline looks more handsome and clear than before, as if a light golden light is shining around him.

Such a clear god stood in front of him like this, Leto didn't know the reason for the rising temperature of the sun or what, but he just looked at Hera's face, and his face turned red.But fortunately, Asteria saw her and quickly pinched Leto, so as not to let this noble goddess do anything out of the ordinary.

Hera didn't notice Leto's careful thoughts, because Argos' loyal dog-like eyes made him unable to tell the extra thoughts on the Evernight Goddess.

Argus in front of him still did not give up and said: "Hera, I will do everything you want me to do, so please be my master." Speaking of the latter, Argus almost used a kind of prayer The tone came to implore the proud male god in front of him to take him away from Kos Island.

Hera shook her head, because Argus had been under Piton's orders before, and the ghost knew if he had any contact with Gaia. He didn't want to put Gaia's eyeliner around him, so when the carriage arrived beside him, he Inviting Leto and the others up, he waved the reins himself, leaving only one sentence to Argus, "Without Piton, then Argus, you are free now, and you don't need a master to restrain yourself."

As soon as the words fell, Argus saw Hera's carriage soaring in the sky, until it turned into a light spot in the sky, Argus reluctantly turned his eyes from the sky back to the earth, but At this moment, he had an incredible idea in his mind—he was going to Olympus!

Not to mention how Argus should implement his incredible idea, Leto said goodbye to Hera with great reluctance, and on the way back, it was rare that he was no longer like a log without saying a word. How much, but kept telling Asteria how heroic Hera was when she killed Pitong, how chic she was when she was driving the carriage, and how gentlemanly she was when she said goodbye to them.

Hearing this, Asteria wrinkled her face impatiently, and said angrily: "Isn't it because you promised that the mother goddess would give him something in return, so you helped us like this! Do you think he is really like Olympus Saint?" Is it as white and flawless as the snow on the mountain, or is it as great and selfless as the distant ancient gods?" These words are full of irony, but Leto shook his head with a slight smile on his face, "But this is waiting for you. In exchange for the price, what do we ask for him to come and give us selfless devotion?"

Looking at the goddess of the night with pink bubbles all over her body, Asteria only prayed silently in her heart, hoping that her gentle and pious sister would not let the mother god give the red-haired son of Cronus anything. What an incredible return, she really couldn't do anything with this sister at that time.

But Leto had already made a secret decision in his heart at this moment, how could Hera remember her gift!

--------------------------

"Leto, are you really willing to do this?" Phoebe frowned, apparently disagreeing with Leto's groundbreaking idea just now.

But Leto's eyes were firm. She seemed to be cursed by that annoying Aphrodite and fell into the spell of love, "I think so, maybe he will appreciate my kindness."

Phoebe looked complicated, but looking at her daughter's begging gaze, "Okay, I will grant your request."

"I think the final glory may be shared by Hera and I." Leto had already sketched a beautiful picture in his heart, but Phoebe didn't think so, but who told her daughter to promise Hera in return? Well, as a mother, she also had to fulfill her promise, but she was reluctant to part with this gift... But after thinking about it, this gift might offend Gaia, the mother of the earth...

Whether it is luck or disaster, Phoebe can't judge, so it depends on Hera's own fate.

--------------------------

"Ah!" Hera sneezed in her palace for no reason, and just when she was thinking that gods could catch a cold, she heard Aerys complain endlessly, "What a nuisance, why has it been raining for the past few days! Ya, she has just become the goddess of wind and rain, so she loves to show off her abilities so much?"

Hera just shook her head helplessly when she heard the pattering rain outside the window. After all, because of the rain, even Demeter didn't come to Olympus to visit him for several days. To be honest, she was still a little lonely.Hades is a ten thousand year old homeboy, Hestia just likes to wander around, and Poseidon likes to do some small tricks in the sea. Thinking about it, apart from Demeter, there are no brothers and sisters to visit him at all. What a great tragedy.

While complaining like this, Iris, who had just gone to the main entrance to clean up the stagnant water, screamed, "Where did the monster come from!" At the same time, Hera also felt a familiar force hovering at the door, and went He came to the main entrance with the noise of Iris, and saw Argus, who was full of scars and looked like a hundred-eyed giant, cowering at his door.

Speaking of which, the trembling of Argos at the moment did not match his huge figure, and some of those eyes were stabbed a lot by sharp weapons like bayonets. Hera frowned and sighed again, just Call the floating spirits wandering in the air and tell them to heal the wound of Argos.

Iris looked at Hera with a puzzled expression, "Your Highness Hera, why are you treating this monster..." Speaking of which, Iris was unwilling to be reconciled to being watched by several eyes of Argus angrily. He closed his mouth heartily, but still murmured dissatisfiedly: "What disgusting eyes..."

Seeing that the wounds on Argos' body were gradually healing, Hera said: "Argos, Olympus is not a place for you to stay. Leave early before no other gods see you." After all, a monster like this that is not claimed by its owner can easily be wiped out by other gods as intruders.

As a result, Argus didn't say a word, just sat cross-legged directly in front of the gate of Hera's palace, and didn't say anything about asking Hera to be his master, but just sat there quietly, as if everything around him It has nothing to do with him, even if the wind and rain remain.

Seeing Argus like this, Aerys stomped his feet angrily, "If other gods see it, they will regard us as guys who like to hang out with monsters!"

Seeing that the big guy couldn't be driven away, Hera let it go. After a while, the guy would probably disappear automatically, so she stopped the angry Iris and told her to ignore him.

However, Hera underestimated Argos' toughness. The big guy just stayed there for almost a month without any thought of leaving. After a long time, some uninformed gods thought that Argos was Hera's new foster The monsters, all secretly mocking Hera's peculiar taste.

Hearing Aerys complain again, Hera shrugged, "Looks like I should force him to leave here." On Olympus, if gods are always mixed with monsters, it is not a good reputation.

But he didn't know that when Hera went to see Argos this time, she made a decision that Iris didn't expect and complained for a long time.

Just because Hera just came out of the palace, before she saw Argos, she saw Aphrodite with eyes more piercing than Argos, and saw her smiling like a flower, so she wanted to give herself a "friendship" '' hug, Hera quickly stepped aside, and asked a few polite words on the face, and Aphrodite would not be repelled by Hera's indifference, so she was not polite. He was ready to wrap Hera's arm so that he could follow him out to a beautiful scenery that he only discovered.

Hera only felt a headache for a while, and it showed on his face, but he didn't know that Argus, who was hiding aside, saw his worried expression, and the big man didn't stay where he was anymore, and walked silently Hera's side, and unceremoniously separated Aphrodite's entangled hands.

When Aphrodite was forced to leave Hera's side, before she could react for a while, she saw a giant full of eyes standing upright in front of her. As the god of love and beauty who loves all beautiful things, she saw this The monster that polluted the eyes suddenly turned pale with fright, and hurriedly prepared to hide behind Hera, "Hera, where did this monster come from?"

"It's not a monster," Hera smiled. She didn't expect Aphrodite to be afraid of Argos, so she made a plan. Presumably this pestering goddess would not bother her anymore, "He is my A new squire, isn't it, Argos?"

"Yes, master." Although Argos' tone was flat, he could tell the joy in it when he listened carefully.

After hearing Hera's answer, Aphrodite cried back to her palace in fright.

From then on, whenever Aphrodite was going to haunt her in her palace, Hera would calmly say to Iris, "Open the door and let Argos go!"
