Greece: Zeus made me the queen of heaven?

Chapter 122 The spell of love cannot be broken

Half a month later, Eros finally set out on the journey to leave the underworld.

The water and soil in the underworld are actually quite good, and the land of bliss where milk and honey flow is even softer and sweeter.

It's just a bit demanding on the waist, and it's too tiring to do too much farm work.

Mingta escaped the fate of turning into mint, but could not escape the fate of turning into mugwort.

When Eros couldn't remember clearly, Hades patiently coaxed Minta into bed, and forced Eros to add an extra hour.

Until finally, when all the tricks had been tried, he reluctantly let Eros leave.

But before leaving the underworld, Eros still has to find someone.

At Hypnos' urging, Eros took out Hecate's scepter.

Hecate should live in the underworld, but her location is not in the depths of the underworld, but near the entrance.

The scepter emitted the light of a crescent moon, guiding Eros in the right direction.

"As soon as I got up from the goddess' belly, I immediately went to find the next one."

"Oh, you damn scumbag!"

Hypnos muttered to himself about Eros.

Although she spoke softly, Eros still heard it clearly.

It's just that Eros is lying on the boat now and has neither the mood nor the energy to tease her.

It's nothing, he's just too tired, and now he needs some fresh stimulation to rejuvenate himself.

Hypnos has become very cautious and not interesting at all, and needs to be nurtured.

Following the direction pointed by the scepter, Eros went upstream and came to Acheron, the River of Pain.

This is the first river that most souls encounter when they arrive in the underworld, which also means that Eros is not far from the entrance to the underworld.

After looking around on the river, Eros did not look at the Styx ferryman, and lowered his head with some regret.

Maybe he was summoned by Hades to start arranging some work in the underworld.

After crossing the Acheron River, we arrived at the place where the sun sets.

This is the land between the boundaries of life and death before the entrance to the underworld.

This is the land where Hemera, the goddess of day, and Aether, the god of ether, pass every day.

Nyx had Aether create a radiant atmosphere above the Earth, lifting the veil of the dark night air, and Hemera disperse the mists of the night.

The light was then able to shine upon the earth, and the two of them took turns entering and exiting the abyss, bringing about the alternation of day and night.

There are few souls in this dusk land of Eros. It seems that the underworld now is not as busy as it will be in the future.

The scepter in his hand emitted a crescent-shaped glow, clearing away the layers of confusion that had been covering Eros.

The witch's hut hidden in this land of twilight, located at the fork in the road, was shown to Eros.

Eros finally pulled himself together and straightened his clothes.

The goddess Hecate, right? She ignored him, right?

Whatever we say this time has to be effective.

After making sure he was fully prepared, Eros walked forward and knocked on the wooden door of the cabin.

"Goddess Hecate, I have come to keep my appointment."

He has a gentle attitude, a sunny smile, a magnetic voice, and a look that can bring out both a god and a beast.

Eros felt that there was no reason why he couldn't deal with Hecate. Even if she was a nymphomaniac, Eros could transform and straighten her.

However, when Eros knocked on the wooden door, several sounds of something falling were heard in the hut, followed by a series of noises.

"The goddess Hecate?"

Eros felt something was strange, and after apologizing, he prepared to push the door open.

"do not want!"

Hecate's voice was heard from inside the house, and judging by the sound it should be her in her teenage state.

But she spoke too late, Eros had already opened the door.

There are no extra gold and silver decorations in the witch's hut, basically just some plants and handmade ornaments.

Moreover, the overall style is very messy, with various used tools and objects placed randomly in various places.

There’s a beauty in playing a game and cramming a bunch of objects for the sake of charm score.

The cause of the series of noises just now was the table that was knocked over to the ground, and a pile of things on it fell to the ground.

Hecate, who took off her black robe and wore only a hazy gauze skirt, finally revealed her true appearance in front of Eros.

Eros had seen her reveal three bodies of a great goddess at once, with three similar yet different faces appearing at the same time, appearing sacred and strange.

But now Hecate has revealed her side as a girl in addition to being a great goddess.

Her temperament is as quiet as Nyx's, but with an added touch of fragility.

The embarrassed and flustered expression on the little face made him seem more energetic.

Is this really the goddess Hecate who has been so indifferent to me?
A doubt arose in Eros' heart.

"Sorry for the s-s-s! Wait for me to clean it up! It will be done in no time!"

Hecate stammered as she lay on the ground in a panic, picking up the messy bottles and jars.

Eros reflected on it and thought that it might be because Hecate had three phases in different states.

And what I happened to see was a rather young girl.

If it was a more mature stage and period, she might be the indifferent goddess in my impression some time ago. Thinking of this, Eros bent down and smiled to help Hecate pick up the things on the ground.

When she is weak, you must strike hard into her heart.

"Goddess Hecate, don't worry, let me help you clean up."

".Well."

Hecate let out an embarrassed groan, her face flushed, and she didn't dare to say anything. She just packed her things silently.

While Eros was helping Hecate clean up, he was observing her living environment.

The chaotic arrangement shows that Hecate is not a person who cares about the details of life.

There were lots of bottles and jars, and a lot of miscellaneous materials like belladonna, rabbit's tail, and elderberry.

It was not difficult for Eros, who possessed the [Potion Making] skill, to understand that these were the materials used to make potions or cast witchcraft.

Then Hecate seemed a little clumsy. I don’t know if she was only in this state, or if she was like this in other states as well.

His thoughts gradually became distracted, and before he knew it, Eros's hand and Hecate's hand reached out to the same bottle of fallen potion.

The moment their fingers touched, Hecate drew back as if she had been electrocuted, a reaction that seemed familiar to Eros.

The last time I bumped into her when I went out, she seemed to have the same reaction.

However, seeing that Hecate seemed a little nervous and embarrassed, Eros picked up the bottle of potion on the ground in order to ease the atmosphere.

Then he spoke to Hecate in a gentler tone.

"What kind of potion is this? I wonder if the goddess Hecate can help me understand it?"

Generally speaking, if you are with someone who shares the same interests or hobbies, you can open up the other person by talking about these things as long as you cater to their interests.

It will make an introverted person become a little more talkative.

For example, if you talk to a otaku about food or billiards, he will definitely not be able to utter a word for a long time.

But if you tell him something like Sakura is so cute and Tomoyo is strength, he will definitely be interested in chatting with you.

Everyone is a hidden chatterbox, it just depends on whether they hit the right spot.

Eros thought that Hecate, as the goddess of witchcraft and magic, would be very interested in these things.

But when Hecate saw the bottle of potion in his hand, she was stunned and her face began to turn red.

“This, this, this is.”

Hecate hesitated and was unable to speak, which made Eros feel confused.

Eros simply opened the bottle, took a sniff, and tried to analyze the ingredients by smell to guess what kind of potion it was.

After all, he also has the skill of [Potion Making], so he is more or less a half-master of potions.

"Black hyacinth, apple, poisonous eggplant"

These ingredients are very familiar, and seem to be able to be used for something.
"That is the love potion."

Hecate said in a low voice, suppressing her embarrassment and shyness.

what?
Eros's hands shook violently and he almost spilled the fluid.

This love potion is so strong that Eros would rather take any poison than take this thing.

There are several different types of love potions. After drinking it, you will be loyal to the person in front of you until death; if you change your heart, you will die of heart pain;
There are also those who will pursue the other person fanatically, become the ultimate bootlicker and then have a bad ending.

This thing is a common T0-level magic potion in all myths and legends.

No matter how bad the curse is, there is a way to break it, but the curse of love is an exception.

Love has no solution.

Eros held the bottle of potion in both hands, then covered it and memorized its color.

But what does Hecate do with love potions? Judging from the packaging, it should have just been produced in the past few days.

This thing is definitely his lifelong enemy and must be taken seriously.

"Well, Goddess Hecate, if this bottle of magic potion is of no use to you, can you give it to me?"

Since there is danger, it is better to take it into your own hands.

Sooner or later, Eros would make sure that the method of making the love potion was completely lost, so that he would not have to be careful about what he ate in the future.

"Ah? Okay."

Hecate was a little stunned, but still nodded reluctantly, feeling a little regretful.

After working overtime for a long time, I finally succeeded in refining it, but in the end, it died in the womb before I even had a plan to think through.

"The goddess Hecate?"

Eros waved his hand in front of Hecate, calling her back from her daze.

"Sorry, sorry, I'm being rude!"

Nodding and apologizing repeatedly, Hecate turned around in a panic and rummaged through the cabinet for things to entertain guests.

The girl's delicate figure was clearly revealed under her semi-transparent gauze skirt, and her bent waist even outlined the shape of her half-ripe peach.

Eros raised the corner of his mouth and admired it with interest.

How great is this? She wears a black robe every day that hides her face and she has no curves at all. What is he looking at?
But this Hecate has a very strange attitude. Could she have split personality?

We need to observe it more carefully.

　Keep a copy of the love potion and see if you can use it on someone later.
