Greek Mythology: Lord of the Underworld

Chapter 89, If you are not arrogant, you are not Lucifer
But the scene was empty. Asmodeus was no longer here, leaving only his lustful power, still affecting the gods.

"That's enough! What are you doing?!"

Zeus scolded him with a dark face.

The scene in front of him was so eye-catching that he didn't even notice it unconsciously. He was already looking forward to the scene in front of him, and a seed was buried deeply in his heart.

Just wait until there is enough time to take root and sprout.

But I have to say that this cold rebuke was effective, and it easily awakened the chaotic gods.

The gods who woke up looked at themselves and each other's situation. The corners of their mouths suddenly twitched and they silently pulled up their pants. The atmosphere was once awkward.

Zeus looked at the gods who had woken up, and his mood gradually improved. His frown relaxed, and the corner of his eye inadvertently glanced aside to see the male god with whom he had just interacted.

He doesn't know why, but he always feels that this little male god is quite good-looking...

……

In the Temple of Hades.

Hades put down what he was dealing with, raised his eyes lightly, and looked at Asmode who had just returned with a smile on his face.

The underworld has just been unified. During this period, the various gods had many things and conflicts that needed to be dealt with by him. As his right-hand man, the God of Sleep and the God of Death did not dare to deal with these things alone, so they wrote them on paper and handed them to Got him.

"Go."

Hades moved his eyes away from Asmodeus and focused on the gods who could no longer hold back.

"Yes!"

After receiving the king's order, the gods of the underworld could no longer hold back the impulse in their hearts and left the temple in a flash.

Asmodeus, who had just returned, didn't understand what had just happened, but he didn't think much about it. He smiled and put his fist on his shoulder, bowed slightly, and saluted Hades: "My king, I want to What I just did is enough to satisfy you."

"Dedicate your crime to meritorious service?"

Hades looked at Asmodeus who was smiling quietly.

Why did the king say that... Asmodeus twitched the corner of his mouth, his smile was a little stiff, and he expressed confusion: "Oh, my respected Pluto, what are you talking about? I don't understand!"

Looking at Asmode who was pretending to be stupid, Hades said quietly: "Asmode, you don't really think that I don't know that the black robe I met in the underworld is Yin, do you?"

"Oh, my dear Hades, I knew you were so wise!"

With a smile on his face, Asmodeus flattered him first, then saw that Hades had no reaction, and asked cautiously: "So, can I still live?"

“Speak your worth.”

Asmodeus straightened his face and straightened his back: "My dear Hades, as one of the seven deadly sins under your command, lust, I feel that I can contribute to the construction of the underworld. For the better future of the underworld, I I will use all my wisdom!"

"Go down."

Hades closed his eyes and waved his hand.

"Yes."

Asmodeus breathed a sigh of relief, and was a little lucky to have listened to Beelzebub's words. Otherwise, it was hard to say what the consequences would be.

Pluto has never been a kind god, this is the underworld.

……

"Unknown gods, do you want to stop me?"

Zeus looked at the gods of the underworld who suddenly appeared in front of him, and his tone was very unkind.

"Zeus, this is the underworld, not your heaven. Do you bring so many gods here to start a war with me in the underworld?!"

Anger, one of the Seven Deadly Sins, was the first to be unable to hold back the violent emotions in his heart and said loudly: "I like fighting the most. If you have the ability, come and have a fight with me first!"

Seeing the rudeness in front of him, the god who was yelling and pointing at him as soon as he came up, Zeus frowned and moved his eyes to the other smiling gods beside him, and then a smile appeared on his face: "It seems There are still polite people in the underworld.”

"There are many polite people in the underworld, but it depends on who is right."

"If he is a king who relies on women to ascend to the throne, I don't think he deserves our respect, let alone our courtesy."

Zeus's face instantly turned cold: "Who are you?"

"The first of the seven deadly sins under Pluto, Lucifer, the sin of pride."

After announcing his identity, Lucifer glanced around him, smiled and said to Zeus: "The Lord of the Underworld has seven deadly sins, Solomon 72, although some demons have not yet arrived for some reasons, but they are basically here. It’s here, does the King of Heaven think he can get through here today?”

"Lucifer, as a sin of arrogance, you inherit the characteristics of arrogance and authority, but you are too arrogant!"

Zeus said disdainfully: "I think you should have known when you met my brother that I have now been promoted to the position of a Titan. Even you, the [chief] gods, want to block me." it's here?"

"This is simply impossible. You are not only arrogant, but also ignorant!"

Zeus scolded angrily.

"If he wasn't arrogant, he wouldn't be Lucifer."

Sin of Jealousy Leviathan yawned boredly, stretched, and said in a weak voice: "Since you know this, and you still say such stupid things, it seems that you are relatively ignorant, Lord of Heaven."

"You're right, I wouldn't be me Lucifer if I wasn't arrogant."

Lucifer smiled indifferently: "I think you may not know where you are now. This is the underworld. Even if the authority of Hades is suppressed by the God King, the underworld naturally rejects external gods, and the King of Heaven will still be suppressed here. Our king, your brother is in the temple, do you want to attack us here?"

This has been made very clear. It is impossible for Zeus not to understand. If Zeus bullies the younger regardless of his status, Hades is not a soft persimmon who can be manipulated by him. In the underworld, he has no chance of winning.

Zeus didn't take action, and with the group of [higher gods] behind him, they were no match for the Seven Deadly Sins or Solomon's 72 Pillars of Demon Gods. Just picking one out would be enough to deal with them.

The fight between subordinates should be left to the subordinates. It would be inappropriate for a god like him, who is ranked among the three kings, to get involved.

Zeus knew this and asked: "My brother promised the goddess Gaia that I would come to the abyss and rescue the hundred-armed giant. What do you mean? I think my brother did not disobey it." People who promise!”

"Of course, Hades did not send us to stop you. Our king, your brother is indeed a man who keeps his promises."

Lucifer said with a smile. At a certain moment, the smile on his lips suddenly disappeared and his eyes became cold: "But it doesn't mean that you can bring so many gods to the realm of bliss!" With so many gods coming to the holy land of the underworld, Zeus knows what he knows. He came to take the hundred-armed giant away. Anyone who didn't know would think that he wanted to start a war with the underworld.

Eurynome knew this very well, and she also thought that Zeus had gone too far this time. After all, this was the territory of Hades, the king of Hades. She had also tried to persuade him, but unfortunately it had no effect.

Zeus wouldn't listen to her at all.

Or perhaps Zeus relied on the help of the Mother of the Gods to dare to act unscrupulously here and challenge the dignity of the underworld.

Zeus, who was belatedly aware of this, also realized this. Knowing that he was in the wrong, he was caught in a dilemma. If he did not retreat, he was destined to go to war with his brother Hades. If he retreated, his majesty would be lost. It is destined to be lost, and among the gods, it will definitely lose its credibility.

The consequences of this are very terrifying, and will cause those gods to change their allegiance and no longer choose to accept his rule.

Now that Father God Cronus has not been overthrown from the throne, he would have chosen this time to break up with his brother Hades unless he was stupid.

Zeus, who didn't know what to do, asked the arrogant man in front of him coldly: "Lucifer, do you know what you are doing now? You are blocking the road now, blocking the way of the Lord of Heaven! My dear brother knows what you are doing. What you did?!"

Zeus's voice was furious.

"Is there a difference?"

Lucifer was noncommittal, smiled mysteriously, and did not answer the question directly.

So what if Pluto doesn't say anything? As the gods under Pluto, they know what to do even if the main god doesn't say anything. Although Pluto didn't say anything, they can come here today and stand in front of Zeus. , is already the best answer.

Pluto will support them from behind, so Lucifer is not worried that Zeus, the Lord of Heaven in front of him, dares to forcefully take action and do something to him.

In other words: "This is the underworld, Zeus doesn't have the guts to be so rampant here!"

Arrogant but not lacking in wisdom, Lucifer believes that this is his essence, and other gods have misunderstandings about him! They all think they are only arrogant! He believes that this view is obviously one-sided and wrong!

Damn Lucifer... Zeus gritted his teeth.

"Dear Zeus, the Abyss Hell is not something that ordinary gods can go to. It is a restricted area for the entire underworld. It is for their own good to just let them stay here."

Eurynome suddenly spoke at this time and reached out to take Zeus' arm.

"You are right, Eurynome, you are really a considerate and kind-hearted goddess. The abyss of hell is very dangerous, so it is better to let them stay here."

Looking at Eurynome who was looking for him under the stairs, Zeus's eyes brightened and he chose to take it without hesitation.

With these words, he could not help but skillfully avoid embarrassment without losing his majesty. He also left a loving and great image in the hearts of the followers of the gods behind him.

Zeus cast a grateful look at Eurynome.

"Just let them go? Lucifer."

Sin of Anger looked at Zeus leaving, his eyes filled with displeasure.

"Let them go, but the other gods who came to the underworld should stay here..."

Lucifer nodded, and as he spoke, he suddenly turned around and looked at the gods left behind by Zeus, showing a meaningful smile.

All the gods shuddered collectively. For some reason, they felt inexplicable fear when they saw the smile on Lucifer's lips.

Very smoothly, Zeus took Eurynome to the abyss of hell, opened the giant closed door, and rescued the hundred-armed giant imprisoned inside.

But when they came back, people were dumbfounded. There was nothing in front of them except flowers and grass. “Am I of God?”

Zeus asked in confusion.

At this time, a light voice came from the air: "I think His Highness Pluto has not promised the Goddess that you can bring so many gods to the realm of bliss, but I believe you must not have done it on purpose, so these people who trespass into the underworld As a god, you won’t mind if I help you temporarily be detained in the prison of the underworld, right? King Zeus?”

Zeus, who understood everything in an instant, turned dark in an instant. He gritted his teeth and forced out the words from between his teeth: "Luc... Xi... Fa!"

"Zeus, don't be angry anymore. Overall, we have gained something from this trip to the underworld. At least the hundred-armed giant was rescued, right?"

Eurynome made a soft and gentle voice, comforting him, with a worried look on his face.

She was afraid that Zeus, now young and energetic, might do something stupid.

"You are right, Eurynome, we have gained something this time."

A smile slowly appeared on Zeus's stiff face, and he touched Eurynome's little hand on his shoulder to reassure her.

But even though he said that, he still looked back unwillingly in the direction of the Temple of Hades, and finally left the underworld with Eurynome.

At this time, there was a lot of joy and laughter in the Temple of Hades.

Both the Seven Deadly Sins and the 72 Demon Gods of Solomon felt particularly comfortable. There is no doubt that Zeus, the Lord of Heaven, has lost face here, and he cannot lose it any more.

Originally, Zeus wanted to use the name of the Goddess Mother to come here to establish his prestige, so as to increase his prestige and lay the foundation for sitting on the throne of the God King in the future. However, he did not expect that it would have the opposite effect. Not only did he fail to establish his prestige, but it also reduced his prestige. !
Now, all the accompanying gods have stayed in the underworld. If they are not rescued from the underworld, who will dare or be willing to be his gods in the future?

Thinking of this, the Seven Deadly Sins and the 72 Demon Gods of Solomon felt particularly comfortable. Now that they have spontaneously fallen under the command of Hades, the natural underworld is closely related to them, and the majesty of the underworld is no different from their majesty.

They must be on guard.

Lucifer put away the smile on his face and asked: "Pluto, what about the group of heavenly gods imprisoned there?"

"Lock it first."

Hades thought for a while, keeping their lives would definitely be useful in the future.

After all, if his cheap brother, Zeus, still wants to maintain his majesty and ascend to the position of God King, he must rescue these followers. Otherwise, he will be a loser among the gods of Chaos. It has lost its credibility and even more its majesty.

At that time, he will lose his qualification to compete for the position of God King.

This is a good opportunity to blackmail Zeus.

Hades retracted his thoughts and stood up from the throne: "The gods follow me, I will create new creations, and the underworld will add new blood and new power."

?

Hearing these words, doubts appeared in the eyes of the gods present, but they still responded respectfully: "Yes!"
