Greece: Zeus made me the queen of heaven?

Chapter 126 Hera squatting at the door guarding the corpse
Hypnos was in no hurry to leave. He stood by with his arms folded across his chest, looking like he was enjoying the show.

She was looking forward to Eros's expression when he came to ask her for help. She would make things very difficult for Eros then.

She wants to take revenge on all the humiliation she has endured during this period this time!

Apparently she had completely forgotten that Eros would never beg her, but would only use various methods to force her to do it.

But after waiting for a long time, Eros didn't seem to remember that she was here, and he was still sitting there, struggling.

Hypnos was getting impatient. She had finally found an opportunity to make Eros ask her for something, and she couldn't let it go.

Unable to wait any longer, Hypnos decided to use indirect means to remind Eros that there was someone who could help him.

"Human, you."

Clearing his throat, Hypnos tried to find his old feeling and was about to speak.

The dim light at the entrance to the underworld was suddenly illuminated by a golden light.

A brisk figure wearing a winged hat, winged shoes and holding the scepter of the god of commerce quickly passed over Hypnos' head.

"what?"

After letting out a surprised cry, the figure that had originally passed the two people turned back.

"I was wondering why I seemed to see a familiar figure. It turned out to be you."

The person who came was none other than Hermes, whom she had met once before. She still had that cheerful look on her face, with a faint divine light emanating from her body.

Hermes waved his hand and greeted Eros.

"Hey, handsome Eros, why do you sit at the entrance to the underworld and sigh?"

Looking at Hermes who was greeting him, Eros suddenly had an idea.

The confusion on Eros's face disappeared and turned into a smile.

"So it's the god Hermes. What are you doing in the underworld?"

"Nothing, just a routine matter, sending some poor lost souls to the underworld."

Hermes held his hat with one hand and shook the scepter of commerce in his hand with the other.

Countless souls flew out from the scepter in her hand and fell into the underworld.

These are lost souls who, because of obsession or desire, resisted the attraction of the underworld and wandered on the earth.

Leading these lost souls to the underworld is also one of Hermes' duties.

Sometimes Persephone, the Queen of the Underworld, would also be responsible for this job, and Hermes would be her companion.

Hiss. Eros seems to have discovered something extraordinary again.

However, this discovery is not important now. Eros still needs to think about how to avoid Hera's sight and leave the underworld.

Eros was still thinking about how to explain the situation to Hermes, so that he could express his needs clearly without causing Hermes to misunderstand.

Hermes, on the other hand, smiled and spoke directly.

"Are you worried about Hera, the Queen of Heaven?"

"Ok?"

"Don't get me wrong, it was such a huge bolt of lightning just now, it would have been hard for me not to see it."

Hermes waved his hand, indicating that he had not conducted any investigation or calculations in advance.

"After seeing Hera's handiwork and then seeing you, I can already imagine what happened."

What? My affair with Hera was exposed?
Eros' heart tightened. How could this be exposed? He had never told anyone about it. Could it be that Hera blew herself up?
"Tsk tsk, I have to say, Her Majesty the Queen is really stingy. Father God has so many lovers, why does she always have to be so petty?"

Hermes said something else, and Eros suddenly realized.

I almost forgot that my relationship with Hera is still very bad because of the matter of Zeus's lover.

After all, after what happened in Tartarus, Eros had subconsciously ignored this matter.

Things have their priorities. Eros believed that Hera cared more about what happened in Tartarus than this matter.

"Yes, Her Majesty is so jealous that she takes her anger out on an innocent person like me."

Eros went down with a look of worry on his face.

"After so much effort, I finally managed to return to the human world, but hope was right before my eyes, and yet I couldn't move forward an inch."

"Alas, I sighed just now because of this dilemma. What should I do?"

If Hermes had not seen Eros full of madness and fighting spirit that day in the Palace of Hades, he would probably have believed it.

This sad and sorrowful expression really looks like a mortal lamenting over life and death.

But Eros defeated Pluto in the underworld, and he had Nyx as his backer.

How could he end up in such a state of sorrow?
Hermes didn't believe it at all, but she understood what Eros was thinking, wanting her to help.

After thinking about it for a while, Hermes decided what to do.

"Don't be so sad, Eros. Since you and I meet at this time, it means that fate wants me to help you."

"I will try to divert Hera's attention so that she won't have time to pay attention to this place for the time being, giving you a chance to leave."

Helping Eros is also a favor to Eros.

As for Hera, this kind of thing was just a small matter. Even if Hera found out later, she couldn't do anything to her.

Hermes was calculating in his mind, but he had not imagined how deep Hera's hatred for Eros was.

She just thought it was normal jealousy and didn't take it seriously.

"Thank you so much, God Hermes." Eros also cooperated and showed a grateful expression, which surprised Hypnos on the side.

What do these two mean? Ignore her, right?
But at this moment, Hypnos couldn't say the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

In the end, he could only stamp his feet in indignation, then spread his wings and flew away.

Damn Eros, she never wanted to see him again.

Noticing Hypnos's running back, Eros didn't pay much attention to her.

Anyway, I can give her another "surprise" when I come to the underworld next time.

Now let’s think about how to get back to the ground.

"If you are ready, I will go back to Olympus now and try to detain Her Majesty the Queen."

"If wing-shaped clouds appear in the sky, it means I have succeeded. You must seize the opportunity."

In just a few words, Hermes had already made a plan.

But Eros stopped her, shook his head, and said.

"Why bother? It's too risky."

Although he believed that Hermes was reliable enough, Eros still felt that the risk was too great.

And Hera would definitely find out afterwards, and then start looking for Eros all over the world.

"I have a plan, listen to me."

Eros and Hermes conspired loudly without worrying about being heard by Hera.

At this moment, Hera, who was sitting on the top of Olympus, on the throne of heaven, opened her eyes.

Here, she can watch everything that happens on earth at the same time, and the key observation areas are the several entrances to the underworld.

She had never forgotten for a moment what Eros had done to her and the hurt he had left behind.

That kind of humiliation and hatred always lingered in her heart.

Even if Hera had a spring that could restore her chastity and bathed in it a hundred times, she would not be able to wash away the marks left on her by Eros.

If she doesn't take revenge, she wouldn't be worthy of being the queen!

Eros is in the underworld, and if he wants to return to the earth, he must pass through the entrances to the underworld.

Hera was waiting for him here, and she was sure that Eros would be in her grasp.

If Eros never returned to the earth and stayed in the underworld forever, Hera would turn a blind eye and ignore it.

But if Eros returned to the earth and Hera saw him jumping around happily, she would be furious just thinking about it.

The plan was perfect, but Hera vaguely discovered some flaws.

Before leaving Eros, her incarnation deliberately left a mark on Eros to track Eros' location.

But just now she clearly saw Eros appear at the entrance to the underworld, but there was no reminder of the mark.

Was it discovered by Eros? Did he neutralize and cover it with someone else's mark?

That's it.

Hera gave up thinking about this question and focused on staring at the entrance to the underworld.

Eros will definitely come out. He will never be willing to stay in the underworld forever.

Be patient, Hera is always patient.

She sat on the throne of the Queen of Heaven, seemingly observing the operation of the entire world, but in fact she was only paying attention to Eros.

She used to sit here, always secretly watching Zeus to prevent him from finding a new lover, but now there is a new person.

Of course, my mood also changed.

Hera stared at the entrance to the underworld where Eros had just appeared, and made up her mind that if she saw Eros again, she would never give him a chance to escape.

But she waited and waited, but Eros never appeared at the entrance again.

Instead, Hermes, who had completed his work, walked out of the entrance to the underworld without noticing.

She still wore her hat, held the scepter, and stepped on the winged shoes, moving as lightly as an elf in the wind.

Hera just stared at her for a few seconds before looking away from Hermes.

After all, Hermes flies to various places every day and completes all kinds of messy tasks.

Hera didn't care about her affairs and just continued to wait for Eros.

I still remember this hatred and resentment in my heart.

Hermes, who was ignored by her, walked briskly on the wind and quickly left Hera's sight.

After landing in a safe place and confirming that Hera was not looking at this side, Hermes stopped.

"Well, it looks like your plan was very successful. You can change back now."

After Hermes finished speaking, one of the twin snakes wrapped around the scepter in her hand swam down along his hand.

Then, under the gaze of Hermes, the snake twisted and changed back into the appearance of Eros.

Hera had seen Eros transform into a deformed beast, but she never expected that Eros would transform into the scepter of the god of commerce in the hands of Hermes.

Eros slipped away from Hera's sight in broad daylight.

　Let me think about which beauties were the first to appear on earth? After Io, should it be Europa or Semele? Or was Danae first?
