Greece: Zeus made me the queen of heaven?

Chapter 319 Hera and her daughter, the almost forgotten marriage

"Lord Eros, please follow me this way."

Late at night, Eros walked along the white and magnificent steps with the nymph maids.

After the day's games were over, Zeus sent his nymph maids to invite him to Mount Olympus to attend the banquet tonight.

Because of the competition during the day, Zeus gave the gods a severe beating, and after beating them with a big stick, he naturally had to give them a sweet treat.

There are endless banquets on Mount Olympus every day, and today is no exception.

Eros walked on the steps built by giants. The clouds were just within reach. He subconsciously turned his head and looked around.

"Lord Eros, it is late at night and most of the palace is the private domain of the goddesses. Please do not look around."

Adhering to the traditional open style of Greece, the palace is naturally the same, and you can see the interior scenery by standing outside the door.

It's late at night, and many goddesses like to have fun, so it would be troublesome if they saw any bad scenes.

Eros might not care, but the nymphs didn't want to get into trouble, so they could only ask Eros to be more serious.

"Okay, okay, I get it."

Eros naturally would not make things difficult for the little nymphs in response to their requests and acted in a friendly manner.

The banquet was not held in the main hall at the top of the sacred mountain, which was the place where the gods usually held their council and was also the palace of Zeus and Hera.

There is a special hall for holding banquets, which serves as the venue for daily feasts.

"Please stop."

At the entrance of the hall, four goddesses wearing light armor and holding spears blocked the way.

They are the lovers of Eros, the four daughters of Styx, the goddess of the River Styx, and servants of Zeus.

They are Nikki [Victory], Kratos [Strength], Bia [Power] and Zelos [Passion].

The nymphs who were blocked quickly stepped forward to explain to them, while Eros stared straight ahead at the top of the sacred mountain in the distance.

She had promised Styx not to touch her daughter, and that was that.

Don't talk to him about mother, daughter, flowers, etc. He is an upright man, a trustworthy man, and someone who is free from vulgarity.

Well, actually it was just because Eros saw Hades in the temple, so he had to behave better.

He didn't want to hook up with Hades today, then have Hades secretly tell Styx about it tomorrow and then be found out.

Just because he doesn't want to, doesn't mean others aren't interested in him.

"Are you the Eros that's been rumored? I heard that you lifted the entire sacred mountain today. Is that true?"

Nikki, the petite goddess with tiny wings behind her, the goddess of victory, took advantage of the interrogation to move closer.

There were shining stars in her eyes and her face was full of enthusiasm.

You know, victory always favors the strong.

Eros is a strong man, so he will naturally win the admiration of Nikki. This is her natural nature as the goddess of victory.

She flapped her little wings and circled around Eros. Of course she would recognize him, but she just wanted to take this opportunity to get to know Eros.

This can be considered as using her power to seek convenience. After all, she is Zeus's servant and charioteer, so she has this right.

"Yes, I am. You must be the goddess of victory, Nikki?"

Eros turned his head and gave a warm smile.

"I know you. Your mother, the goddess Styx, praised you to me."

In fact, Eros felt somewhat helpless in his heart.

He didn't want to have anything to do with Nikki, after all, he had to keep his promise to Styx.

But Nikki took the initiative to get to know him, so what could she do? It was really embarrassing. "Hey? Do you still know your mother?"

Nikki showed a look of surprise. She hadn't heard about her mother for a long time.

"Is mother okay in the underworld? How did you two meet? What did mother say about me?"

A series of questions came like a storm, and it seemed that the goddess of victory was a little bit noisy and lively.

But at this moment, the nymph goddess was already inviting Eros to enter the banquet.

So Eros could only perfunctorily answer her question and asked her to talk again next time.

"If I have time, I'll talk to you more about your mother."

"Oh, sorry, I'm causing you trouble."

Nikki temporarily suppressed the excitement on her face and made way for Eros to enter the hall.

At this time, the banquet in the temple was a time of celebration. The gods were immersed in the cheerful banquet atmosphere, forgetting about the events of the day.

Singing, dancing and wine are the things that can numb the mind the most. They make people temporarily forget the terrifying power of Zeus during the day and immerse themselves in joy.

When Eros walked into the temple, many goddesses he knew greeted him and raised their glasses to invite him to join them.

However, this time it was Zeus who invited Eros.

So Eros just picked up the wine glass, toasted them, and continued walking towards the center.

On the way, a goddess held a wine jug and filled his empty cup.

"Thank you."

Eros wanted to express his gratitude out of politeness, but when he looked up, he was almost frightened.

"Don't be so polite to me, dear Eros."

The person holding the wine jug and pouring wine for himself was actually Hera?

No, how could Hera do such a thing?
Moreover, there was no resentment or hatred in the look in his eyes when he looked at himself, but instead there was a strange tenderness in it.

Eros observed again and again, and finally realized that something was wrong.

First, the temperament is different. The goddess in front of him is softer and more charming. Second, her dress is also different. It is not as gorgeous as Hera, but very simple instead.

But that face was exactly the same as Hera's, which surprised Eros.

After thinking for a moment, Eros understood when he saw the figure sitting next to Zeus, staring at him.

It turns out that she is Hera's daughter, and the identity Hera once used to approach herself, the goddess of youth Hebe.

She was originally in charge of the reception at the banquet, so it was normal for her to pour wine for herself.

But Eros really didn't expect that Hera actually looked exactly like his daughter. It was really... a bit exciting.

"Goddess Hebe, it's an honor."

Thinking of this, Eros became more excited and touched Hebe's little hand with his free hand.

Heber just struggled symbolically, and then obeyed directly, with some shyness in his eyes.

This scene almost made Hera, who was sitting there, crush the armrest.

How the hell did I forget about this?!

It seemed like a long time ago, I once told Hebe that I had found a good match for her?

But a lot of things happened later and I forgot about it.

But I never expected that Heber still remembered it!
　I wonder if anyone still remembers this. At that time, I even thought that Hera shared her memories of the underworld with Hebe.
