Greek Mythology: Lord of the Underworld

Chapter 98 097, who bullied the stove goddess again?
Among the gods at the scene, only the gods from the heavens had an overwhelming numerical advantage. The result of this voting was self-evident. The final winner would be Zeus.

Unless one of Hades and Poseidon is willing to give up the position of God King and fully support the other, it is obvious that this is impossible.

Zeus looked a little ugly. He glanced at Metis not far away and wondered what he was thinking.

He also didn't expect that Metis would actually dare to go against him now.

Did he get the protection of his eldest brother?

Damn it!

Metis sensed the coldness in Zeus' eyes not far away, but she didn't take it seriously and ignored it at all. She said softly: "The voting is not only based on the number of people, but also based on the god's position and the authority he holds, such as The goddess Mnemosyne, as a goddess with the status of a Titan, I think her existence is worthy of the seven main gods."

One vote is worth seven votes. This is still a simple calculation. When the gods heard this, they did not deny it, but they also did not admit it. If the calculation was really based on equal value, it would be impossible for any god among the three parties to let the other party Taking advantage of something and fussing over every detail will take a long time.

So voting is clearly an unwise decision.

What Metis wanted was to let the gods know this, so he spoke next: "So, dear prophet Prometheus, your proposal is not very wise."

"Yes, respected goddess of wisdom, after hearing your words, I also realized my mistake."

Prometheus smiled and admitted this: "To become a god king convinced by the gods, you cannot be elected by voting alone. To become a god king, you not only need powerful divine power, but also the belief of the gods. Powerful And there are gods in great numbers.”

"Therefore, I suggest that this divine meeting be terminated for the time being. A new divine meeting will be held here again in 500 years in the Olympus Temple. At that time, a new king of the gods will be established."

Prometheus looked at the three kings in front of him and said with a smile: "I believe that after 500 years, the position of the God King will be finally established, and the other two kings will no longer have any opinions."

After Hades, Poseidon, and Zeus heard this, no one spoke, and they all chose to acquiesce.

The current position of the God King cannot be determined for the time being, mainly because it is unclear whether it will fall on Hades or Zeus.

Zeus has three powerful hundred-armed giants, and with the help of Mnemosyne, the goddess of words, there are four Titans with god-level combat power.

As for Hades, according to the rules, Themis can no longer help him in the election of the god king. Therefore, he does not have a Titan-level combat power here, but his Underworld Lord-level combat power is The power is numerous.

Not to mention the Cyclops, who deserves the credit for creating the artifact.

Therefore, the bargaining chips between the two parties are very close. It is difficult to determine the final destination of the position of God King. We can only wait until 500 years later to return to the temple and convene another parliament for re-election.

During these 500 years, everything will change. The three kings will try their best to increase their chips to successfully elect the God King.

As for the final result of the negotiation, Hades and Zeus had no objections. After all, there was no better way to achieve this result, and Poseidon was very happy.

It is impossible for him to ascend to the position of God King now.

But it was different after these 500 years. He had a chance to catch up with his two brothers.

Of course he was willing to see this happen, so he supported the proposal with both hands.

In this way, the banquet on Mount Olympus ended, and this time the election council for the God King was also temporarily suspended. It was postponed to 500 years later. Here, in the same place, a second meeting will be held. The council that elects the God-King.

500 years later, the Council of Gods convened on the top of Mount Olympus will finally determine who will be the king of the gods.

The first Olympus Council of Gods did not reach a conclusion regarding the ownership of the position of God King and ended hastily. The ownership of the position of God King will be established at the second Council of Gods.

The gods left one after another and left Olympus.

Before leaving, Hades' eyes fell on the prophet Prometheus not far away, who was about to leave with Zeus. The other party sensed it, turned around and smiled, very humble, and every move revealed wisdom. breath.

Immediately, he looked at Metis, the goddess of wisdom, who was following him. She also smiled back at him, but Metis's was more playful.

Inexplicably, I felt that this was the result of a long-standing discussion between the Prophet and the Goddess of Wisdom. One of them was a good person and the other was a bad person, thus bringing the first Olympus Council of Gods to a standstill.

It was postponed until the Second Divine Assembly.

But no matter what, the ending is good. A war that was about to break out was prevented, and it ended peacefully.

After the divine banquet was over, Hades returned to the underworld with a group of Hades. What surprised him was that the so-called goddess of wisdom had been following him and seemed to be staying in the underworld.

……

Since the end of the God War and the temporary position of the God King, the gods have left Olympus and returned to where they belong, each performing their duties. The world is still developing and running steadily.

It seems to be no different from before, but this is only calm on the surface, but there are turbulent waves on the inside.

Among the three kings, except for Hades, they are all trying their best to win over the gods they can win over, so as to increase their own bargaining chips in the future and sit on the throne of the God King.

Only Hades, after returning to the underworld, has not gone out, nor has he won over the other gods. Instead, he is studying the Chaos Code. No, it has been renamed now, it should be called the Code of the Underworld.

In addition, he is also trying his best to think of ways to improve his power and improve the underworld, but the effect is very little. He has basically done everything he needs to do.

It was not until today that the arrival of the eldest sister Hestia broke Hades' unchanging life.

The peace in the main hall of Hades was broken. Hades was dealing with the government affairs of the underworld. He did not expect that after he became the king of Hades, there would be so many conflicts in the underworld every day, and there would be even more other matters.

Just as he was sitting on the throne with his hands on the director's table handling government affairs, the long door of the Hades Palace was suddenly pushed open. It was Hestia, his eldest sister with a childlike face and huge peaches.

"How did you come?"

Hades watched Hestia crossing the threshold and walking over like a skip, his calm eyes wavered slightly, and he was a little confused.

Since he regained his power as Hades, he has rarely communicated with Hestia, his eldest sister. Of course, it is not just her, but also his other two sisters Demeter and Hera. .

Since the last time he returned from Olympus, Hades has hardly met anyone else, except for the messengers who have to hand him a lot of government affairs that need to be dealt with every once in a while. I have almost never seen any gods in my time here.

As for the goddesses who followed him to the underworld, such as Hestia and the other three sisters, he arranged for them to stay in their accommodation. After each of them had their own palace, he left them alone. "Why, can't you come if you have nothing to do?"

Hestia pouted angrily and put her little hands behind her back, looking very unhappy, as if someone had offended him.

Hades put down the paper in his hand, looked at the eldest sister who came over, and said, "Hestia, who made you angry again?"

He couldn't understand that in the entire underworld, no one should dare to mess with Hestia, except of course his aunt Themis and his second sister Demeter.

I don't know why, but Aunt Themis got into a very bad habit, and it was a very bad habit for Hestia.

Themis always likes to hold her in her arms and rub her little head just like Demeter!
Hestia protested very much against this, thinking this was definitely the worst habit in the world!

She feels that there must be an additional rule in the world's laws: you cannot rub other people's heads casually!
But it is a pity that her protest was useful when facing Demeter, but it was ineffective when facing Themis!
One was her sister, the other was her aunt, and coupled with the huge gap in divine status, she felt powerless when facing Themis and could only succumb to power.

Therefore, when Hades saw his eldest sister walking in angrily, his first reaction was that she had been bullied again and came to complain.

"Who made me angry?"

Hestia walked over with her little hands behind her back, pretending to be an adult. After hearing what Hades said, she rolled her eyes angrily and shouted loudly: "Brother, it's you who made me angry. !”

?

Don't say this nonsense... Hades was startled for a moment, with doubts in his eyes. Since returning to the underworld, he has been staying here. He has never gone out, and has never seen Hestia. How can he mess with her? Already?

Seeing the confusion in Hades's eyes, Hestia became even more angry. She wrinkled her white nose and let out a soft "hum" in dissatisfaction.

"It's all my fault that this broken underworld that you are in charge of has no light, no heat, no heat. It's such a dim and dark day every day. It's so boring and has no meaning at all!"

"You don't even want to go out with me."

Hestia, who was complaining, glared at Hades again when she said this, and continued to express her dissatisfaction: "Since you returned to the underworld, you have stayed here alone for so long without going out. One step past here, and your two sisters and I will be bored to death!"

"You have nothing in this underworld. It's just that sister Demeter planted some flowers before coming here to make it look like a place for one to stay. Otherwise, who else but the god of Hades can stay in such a ghost place?" !”

"There's nothing, let's not talk about it. It's also very gloomy and dull. I've never seen your sky before. Apart from dark purple, it has also shown other colors!"

Hestia sat directly on the table, very dissatisfied, gently shaking a pair of small and crystal feet, right in front of Hades, facing him, and from time to time, her cute and round jade toes were gently swaying back and forth. Lightly scratching the hem of Hades' trousers.

The slightly protruding toenails at the front of the pair of beady feet were scratched through the cloth on the upper surface of the legs, making Hades feel a little itchy.

Listening to Hestia's complaints, Hades looked at the eldest sister in front of him who was mumbling and holding up her cheeks in anger, and said calmly: "I'm not asking you to stay here either."

The underworld is like this, a scary, lonely, dark place, synonymous with all misfortunes and all negativity. This is a ghost place, a ghost place where even the gods don't want to come.

But because of this, this place is called the underworld, the destination of the dead, and the end of the dead.

"Brother, you have changed."

Hestia opened her watery eyes and looked at Hades pitifully, complaining: "You weren't like this before. You used to call us sister when you first started, but now you can't even I didn’t even say a word.”

Hades did not deny this. Of course, he only called Hestia the three sisters at the beginning because she was still in Cronus's belly at that time and she needed Hestia. Three sisters help.

But it's different now. Not only has he been free for a long time, but he has also taken back his authority as Hades. Hades is no longer the Hades he was before. He no longer needs to call the three Hestia sisters "sister" .

"Do you think you've changed?"

Hestia's angry questioning brought Hades back to his thoughts. He glanced at the angry eldest sister and said three words calmly: "Have you had enough?"

"Ah."

Hestia nodded obediently.

"Then get out, Hestia."

"it is good."

Just as Hestia was about to leave, she realized something was wrong. She looked at Hades aggrievedly and said pitifully: "But, brother Hades, your underworld is really not a place for humans. It's too scary!"

If the underworld is not scary, then is it still called the underworld?

Hades was noncommittal to Hestia's protest, but her eyes lit up at the eldest sister's next words.

"There's not even a bit of sunshine. It's a far cry from the real world."

After hearing this, Hades was startled. Yes, if you want to improve your power, you must perfect the underworld, and the underworld is a branch of the real world. To perfect the underworld, you need to create it to be the same as the real world. resemblance.

In this way, his power and position can be increased and his upper limit can be opened.

Hades suddenly realized, looked at the sullen elder sister who had inspired him, and said, "Okay, Hestia, don't be unhappy."

"I don't! It's so boring here!"

The eldest sister stubbornly put her little face aside.

Hades was a little helpless, got up from the throne and walked outside.

Hestia was a little confused: "Where are you going? Brother."

"Creating Hades."

Hades paused and then added: "Create an underworld you like."
