[Greek mythology] Queen of the gods

As soon as these words came out, except for Hera and Gaia who could still keep their faces unchanged, the other gods present all looked at Zeus with incredulous expressions. Hephaestus's unattractive face was not so much surprised as it was. Looking at Zeus with a horrified expression, he obviously hasn't changed from the son of a monster to the son of a god king. After all, Zeus's children are so good and beautiful, how could he be such an ugly monster!

Zeus has already regretted that he blurted out the truth that should have been concealed by himself because of Gaia's anger, but Zeus is Zeus after all, that is, he really gave birth to Hephaestus, so what, as the king of gods, what does he have? It can't be done, naturally having a child is very simple and normal, so he looked at Gaia without changing his previous pride, "Yes, Hephaestus is my child, but if someone wants to It's ridiculous to attack me here!" His words were clearly aimed at Gaia, and Gaia had no reason to be wrong, "I really didn't expect that our great God King would admit this in person, you know Hey Phaistos seems to have been sent to the sea realm when he was born." At this point, Gaia deliberately covered her lips, pretending to say something wrong and said, "No, it should be Herato Demeter who took care of him." How many days is he, but I remember wrongly."

But as soon as Gaia said this, all the gods thought about it, even Hephaestus, who was a little slow to react, looked at Zeus with complaints and helplessness. It seems that he has understood the real reason for abandoning him. who is who.

Gaia looked at the expressions of the gods with satisfaction, but it was not the purpose of her coming this time just to force Zeus to tell this matter, but she saw that the corners of her eyes were crooked, and she looked at the very injured Hefei kindly. Stoss said: "I really didn't expect that Hephaestus could be sent to Zeus to be raised. Is this what humans call blood?" Ya said: "Dear Mother of the Earth, His Majesty Zeus has treated me very well, please stop attacking him needlessly because of the rumors that there is no wind and no shadow."

When Hera heard this, she didn't know whether to laugh or not, and she only thought that Hephaestus was too kind, and Zeus, that goddamn scum, has nothing to defend!

However, Gaia did not give up her next plan because of Hephaestus' words. After all, it would be a pity not to take advantage of such a good opportunity!The smile on the face of this gentle goddess of the earth is as warm as the spring breeze in April, but what she said will never be seen by others, and this time she even annoyed the red-haired god of marriage who was watching the show.

"Actually, I also want to specifically confirm this matter to Zeus this time." Gaia clearly had a plan in mind, but she still said so. Spread it out in a reasonable way, because all of this is just to pave the way for the news she received not long ago.

Thinking of this, Gaia deliberately gave a shallow salute to Zeus, which caught Zeus by surprise, but his face was still so solemn, as if his position as the god king was not threatened by these boring things, but Then his face became embarrassing because of every word Gaia said.

"Dear God King, the purpose of my coming this time is to tell you a prophecy I received not long ago." The smile on the corner of Gaia's lips became brighter, and her beauty at the moment was more aggressive than before. , "The god who gave birth to Hephaestus with you will be the queen of Olympus!"

The quick-responsive gods immediately whispered: "Isn't that Hera?" They thought their voices were very low, but they still reached Hera's ears. With the cold eyes, they quickly shut their mouths, and even regretted why they followed Gaia to meet Zeus!

Hephaestus trembled when he heard this. He understood that the relationship between Hera and Zeus was extremely bad, how could he agree to such a thing, and asked Gaia: "Dear Mother Earth, we understand your concern. How correct is the prophecy, but this time it is too difficult?" He only felt that Gaia's prophecy was like forcing Hera to become the queen of God, but what good would this do for Gaia?

Is it just pure love to see Zeus and Hera deepen their rift?

Hephaestus still couldn't figure it out, but Zeus already felt the deep malice in Gaia's words, his eyes darkened a lot, "Gaia, what does it matter if Hera doesn't become the Queen of God?" To be honest Well, Zeus didn't want to find a guy who showed disgust at the sight of him as his queen.

"Maybe it has nothing to do with Hera, but you have a lot to do with Zeus." Gaia said with a smile, "After all, you don't want the god king of Olympus to be replaced by someone else?" Gaia saw His eyes were full of temptation.

As she expected, Zeus already understood something, but he still couldn't believe it, and asked with a pretentious look: "You mean that no matter what, the future God Empress will only be Hera?"

Even if the God King is no longer himself!

Gaia smiled and nodded, "Okay, that's all for my advice to you, I believe you will give the most correct response." As soon as the words fell, Gaia's carriage arrived at some time Beside her, she waved her horsewhip in satisfaction, drawing an elegant stroke across the sky.

While the remaining gods were thinking about each other in place, some of the gods who were interested found excuses and retreated from this unpleasant scene. Gradually, only Zeus, Hera and Hephaestus were left.

Hephaestus just felt uncomfortable here, seeing that other gods took the opportunity to leave, so he also prepared to bid farewell to the two father gods in front of him. Of course, it was still difficult for him to accept this matter, but fate often Even if he is so impermanent, he is just a little guy who has not even determined his priesthood, so what can he decide.

However, Hera, who was still a gentle father god in the eyes of Hephaestus just now, deliberately stopped him and asked, "Hephaestus, do you think I should be such a queen?" Although Hera was smiling, But Hephaestus knew that Hera was just pretending, because the smile didn't seep into those red eyes at all.

"I... don't know..." Hephaestus said this sentence hesitantly, it seems that this is not his decision.

Seeing Hephaestus' embarrassment, Zeus said as if to help him, "Hera, you don't have to force Hephaestus." But Zeus couldn't fully accept that he wanted to beg Hera to be his The Queen of God, even though the power of the King of God is in him, what an important treasure it is.

But it would be easier to ask him to go to Tartarus to work as a coolie than to ask him to grovel and beg this indifferent red-haired god who always satirizes him.

Of course, Zeus is Zeus after all. Before he turned back to his palace, he only said to Hera, "But I hope that your brother can think clearly, after all, this is for the sake of the entire Olympus." Zeus's tone He was extremely indifferent, as if he didn't care whether Hera would become the queen of the gods, and only had to say this for the future of Olympus, so it was obvious that he was very indifferent to fame and fortune.

It's a pity that Hera is not another god. He couldn't see that this was a trick of Zeus, and he just watched Zeus leave here with a sneer.

Olympus is death, so what does it matter to him!

"Mother, is your prophecy true?" Rhea blinked her blue eyes that day, and asked Gaia with doubts in her eyes.

She only got this incredible news not long ago. Speaking of which, she was more anxious than anyone else about finding a queen for Zeus. She even begged Hera before, but seeing Hera's resistance, She could only stop thinking about it, but now that she heard Guyana's prophecy, her heart was filled with worry again.

You must know that Hera hates Zeus more than anyone else!

Gaia raised her eyebrows, looked at such a dull daughter, her forehead hurt slightly, but she could only hold back her temper and said, "Riya, when did my prediction go wrong!"

"But why did Hera let us manipulate and become the Queen of God?" Rhea said sadly when she saw Hera's power becoming stronger and stronger.

Is it really only possible to let Zeus be replaced by others?

Absolutely not!

Rhea saw that Gaia had plans in mind again, so she asked, "Mother, don't you have some way to persuade Hera?" Even though Rhea was not smart enough, she also knew that her mother goddess was not easy lamp.

"Hera, if you force him, he will definitely not be willing, but if you start with people around him, maybe you can get an unexpected answer." As soon as the voice fell, Rhea immediately understood something, and did not wait to talk to Gai again. After chatting for a few words, she held up her long skirt to thank Gaia and hurriedly left Gaia's palace, but she didn't see Gaia's meaningful smile.

"Hera will definitely be the queen of God, and she can only be the queen of Zeus," Gaia's tone became lighter, and she saw her pick up a small glass ball-like thing from the small table, she looked at it for a long time, and suddenly , she grasped it hard, but saw countless fine sands flowing from her fingertips, "Otherwise, how could the child who brought disaster to Olympus come to this world?"

I saw the fine sand slowly falling on the smooth marble slab. After a while, the fine sand gathered and seemed to form a human shape, but before the process was over, it was ruthlessly interrupted by Gaia, but seeing her slender Stepping hard on the fine sand with his right foot, he saw that the fine sand that had finally become humanoid turned into countless loose sand. Seeing this scene, the smile on Gaia's face became more cruel.

"You say, don't you? Uranus?"

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

"Aerys, is there something dirty on my face?" After returning that day, Iris looked at Hera with a strange look. Swept away.

Reminded by Hera, Iris immediately came to her senses and hurriedly looked down at the classics she had just sorted out for Hera, talking about the things Hera had to deal with recently, but she was still thinking about the thing that the other goddesses said. thing.

Iris has always been a gossip, but she didn't expect that such a big gossip would fall on her main god. To be honest, if she could, she really wanted to ask Hera about her current mood, but she only knew Hera's temper for a long time. I dare not mention that, but she was really tortured to death by her infinite curiosity. Fortunately, the arrival of Apollo and the others eased Iris's wonderful pain.

Seeing that Apollo and Artemis hurriedly saluted Hera without waiting for Athena to follow behind, the impatient Artemis asked directly: "Hera, will you really become the Queen of God?"

This problem again!Speaking of which, recently Hera’s palace has been visited by countless gods who used to be old and dead, and most of them came to ask themselves this question, and of course they also persuaded Hera to agree to this matter. Less hints of Zeus.

But Hera asked Argos to "invite" these gods of good things out one by one with a smile on her face.

Sure enough, not long after, no god dared to mention this matter in front of Hera.

As for Artemis, they dared to ask themselves, and they only found out about it recently after finishing their errands in the world. As the saying goes, those who don’t know are innocent. Hera only raised her eyes and replied blankly: " I don't want to hear you talk about it."

Apollo and Artemis were not ignorant of such an obvious refusal, so they obediently turned the topic aside immediately, but Athena, who has always been known for her wisdom, said again at this time: "Why don't you answer that question?" question?"

Seeing that Hera's face became more and more indifferent, Athena knew that she had said something she shouldn't have said, but she came prepared this time, so she replied without any fear: "This answer is not only what we want to know, but also It is the gods of Olympus who want to know, even your brothers and sisters in the underworld and the sea world want to know your answer."

When Hera heard this and saw Athena's fearless appearance, she also understood, "Did Hades and Poseidon ask you to ask me?"

Athena nodded seriously to Hera, otherwise she wouldn't touch Hera's bad luck for no reason.

Seeing that her thoughts were confirmed, Hera also pondered. It seems that her answer is not only as important to Olympus. You must know that although the sea world and the underworld are separate systems from Olympus, Olympus There really was a change in Pace, the king of gods really changed to another guy, and the impact on the sea world and the underworld is also quite large.

It seems that he has to face up to this problem.

"Your Highness Hera, Hephaestus is here." Iris asked anxiously as she looked at the unpredictable Hera. What kind of attitude is it, I am afraid that if I am not careful, Hera, who is now full of troubles, will be even more angry.

Hera paused, and still asked Iris to bring Hephaestus in, but who knew that Iris came back alone after a while and reported: "Hephaestus said that he hopes to chat with you alone."

Hera frowned, but he still went out to meet the nervous and shy little guy.

The little guy obviously didn't expect that Hera would really meet him, because after that incident, Hera returned to her usual indifference. If it wasn't for Rhea, the goddess of time, who begged him desperately, Hephaestus would never want to bother Hera .

"Hephaestus, you must have been asked by Zeus, no, it was Rhea's request, did you come to me specially?" Hera looked at Hephaestus and asked.

Hephaestus nodded, after all, he knew that he couldn't hide from this smart red-haired god.

"Are you also here to persuade me to be that god queen?" Hera's words were quite ironic. He knew that Hephaestus was soft-hearted, and as long as others cried in front of him, Hephaestus would Can't help but come to help people speak.

"This..." Hephaestus wanted to say what Rhea taught him to persuade Hera, but he couldn't say anything, and finally he said: "No, I hope you don't become the Queen of God!"
