Chapter 89 The Secret Rumors of the Queen of the Underworld, the Son of the Underworld

Naiji thought in her heart: "The words of the queen of the underworld are like needles. She knows that my mother of gods is more inclined to Olympus."

"If in the future, Mount Olympus really confronts the underworld, or even wars..."

Naiji bit her lip, an idea popped into her mind.

"I should leave the underworld and go to Mount Olympus."

"After all, that is the highest and most holy place in the God Realm."

She looked at Biya, who bowed her head and saluted without moving, and sighed in her heart.

"What would happen if she knew that Olympus and the underworld, which she was equally loyal to, were so hostile to each other..."

"How will she choose?"

After saluting, Styx and his party stood aside.

Then there was the sound of waving water in the distance.

The Temple of Hades is located in the middle of the underworld, surrounded by dark and desolate land, and there is no running water, but the gods are not surprised.

A river appeared in the sky of the underworld. The river carried a small boat, and the god stood silently on it. He lowered his head, and his white hair was scattered on both sides of his thin cheeks.

The face of the god is old, and his income is as solid as wood.

wow...

The boat docked in front of the temple.

The god stepped off the boat and stepped into the temple.

He stared at the king and queen in the darkness in fear, knelt on the ground, and said in a trembling and hoarse voice: "Humble boatman, Charon, come and pay respects to the great king and queen of Hades."

Then he climbed forward step by step.

Persephone raised her scepter and stretched it forward.

Charon took the tip of the queen's scepter with both hands and kissed it lightly.

He is the boatman of the underworld, Charon!

It is the first god that all souls see when they come to the underworld, and he is responsible for transporting all souls to the other side of the River Styx.

Persephone withdrew her scepter without saying a word, while Charon also stood up and bowed her head obediently by the side.

"..." Thanatos stared at Charon.

Charon, like Thanatos and Hypnos, is also the blood of Nyx, the goddess of the night!
It's just that he has low power and no authority. He is loyal to Olympus and transports the dead across the river day and night.

He has seen too many sorrows of undead, and there is only heavy numbness in his eyes.

"If... that day comes." Thanatos stared at Charon, "Which side will he... be on?"

"Will he heed the call of the blood of the night... or, will he become the queen's loyal dog?"

In the silent Pluto Temple, thoughts are different.

boom!
The door of Shenting was pushed open, and three more gods walked in.

Thanatos looked at the three gods with a smile on his lips.

A male god walking in the forefront, with a handsome face, dressed in a red battle robe, surrounded by thousands of dead spirits, his blue eyes were burning, and a sword, a spear, a shield, a bow!

He carried a huge transparent coffin on his shoulders, stepped heavily into the temple, and placed the coffin on the ground.

He knelt down on one knee, raised his head, and said loudly, "I have seen the mother of God and the father of God. May the underworld be eternal!"

The only male god son of Hades and Queen Hades, the son of the underworld, Zagreos!
The huge transparent coffin he carried contained a goddess sleeping in it, the daughter of Hades and Queen Hades, the goddess of rest, Makarya!

Makarya has been in an eternal sleep since she was born. She is still alive, but she can only live forever in her dreams. She represents the peace of all living beings after death.

No matter where the child of the underworld goes, she will carry this huge coffin with her sister Makarya forever.

"My powerful and kind Son of God, please get up." Persephone smiled.

"Yes." Zagreos stood up, picked up the transparent coffin again, and stood aside.

Thanatos looked out of the temple.

Just now, a total of three gods came in.

Zagreos, the son of the underworld, and Makaria, the goddess of peace who sleeps eternally in the coffin.

One left.

Only then did she float over unsteadily.

She is like a ghost, without a lower body, her body appears and disappears, and the whole body is surrounded by misty mist.

She has a saffron-colored veil over her head.

She floated around in the divine court, her divine voice was ethereal, "Great God King~Honorable God Queen~"

"Heh." Thanatos was expressionless, but he laughed from the bottom of his heart, and he couldn't help but look at Hades.

Hades said nothing.

This ghostly goddess is the daughter of Hades and Queen Hades, the goddess of conspiracy and ghosts, Merinoe!
but!

There is a rumor circulating in the underworld, almost everyone knows: In fact, she was not born of Hades and Queen of Hades, but the birth of God King Zeus and Queen of Hades, Persephone!
Her existence is the proof of Persephone's infidelity, and the living embodiment of Hades' shame!

Of course, this is just a rumor after all.

Did Persephone really have a secret relationship with the god-king Zeus?No living being really knows.

Merinoe floated into the ranks of the gods.

There are many gods in the underworld, but all the important gods are here.

"Such an opportunity is rare." Thanatos looked at the gods in the field, and involuntarily divided them into factions.

Hades: Hades, Hades, Persephone, the three judges of the underworld, Charon, the boatman of the underworld, the three sons of Hades and the queen of the underworld: Zagreos, the son of the underworld, Makaria, the goddess of rest, conspiracy and Melinoe, the goddess of ghosts.

There are nine in total, and they are the most powerful faction in the underworld.

Neutral: Styx, the goddess of the river Styx, and her four sons of God, a total of five.

Nightblood: himself and Hypnos, the god of sleep.Although Charon, the boatman of the underworld, is also, but he has never shown that he is close to the blood of the night.

Persephone turned her head sideways, and she looked at Hades: "My lord, all the gods who should come have come. Do you want to start the competition in the underworld?"

Hades remained silent.

It was like this every time, but Persephone was always patient, she always waited a moment.

A moment later, Persephone's elegant voice filled the hall.

"Since Pluto doesn't say a word, then I'll make the decision."

"All the gods of the underworld have arrived."

Her beautiful eyes gazed at the gods of the underworld, and the shadow of death shone on her face: "Then the competition in the underworld begins."

"The winner will receive the imperial post."

"Then, let me announce the rules of this competition."

"In this competition, a total of four gods participated in the challenge."

Persephone looked at the field: "I will designate a player to play."

"Styx, Goddess of the River Styx, you will designate a player to play."

"Death God Thanatos, you will designate a player to play."

"The last contestant was obtained by fighting creatures in the wilderness of the underworld."

Thanatos thought in his heart: "As expected... I have a place."

"For this underworld competition, Queen Persephone has two plans."

"One is to use the incomparably precious reward of imperial appointment to let the creatures in the wilderness of the underworld kill each other, and expand the underworld's control over the underworld."

"Second, it is a profit distribution within Hades."

Persephone, Styx, and Thanatos, the three gods, just represent the three important factions in the underworld.

Who will they send to fight? ——Of course it is the Son of God who has not yet been ordained as a priest.

Thanatos was silent for a moment.

"I don't have a son of God. My brother, Hypnos, has three sons of god. But they are just born, and they can't fight at all."

"Styx, the goddess of the River Styx, has many excellent sons of gods. Who will she send to fight?"

"As for Persephone herself, Queen of the Underworld—of course she will send Zaglios, the Son of the Underworld, to fight."

"Heh... So, the participating gods will compete with the Queen of the Underworld's favorite god son, Zagreos, the son of the underworld."

Persephone's divine voice suddenly expanded, resounding through the underworld with a radius of [-] miles.

"First decide who is the winner in the wilderness of the underworld, and get this precious entry."

"Let the fight begin."
