Greece: Zeus made me the queen of heaven?

Chapter 379: A Good and Well-Behaved Daughter
"Dream?"

Acrisius's face darkened slightly, even he had received this foreshadowing.

As Danaë was once Hera's oracle, it was natural that she could not have no premonition.

All these signs indicate that the prophecy seems to be about to come true.

And how can he change this prophecy?
It can be said that subconsciously, he thought of the simplest, most direct and permanent method.

As long as he strangled his daughter here, he would no longer be troubled by the prophecy and could continue to sit firmly on the throne.

But if he were to take action, he still had many concerns.

He could withstand the dissatisfaction from the oracle and the notoriety of killing women.

But there are still gods in this world, and there is also the terrifying hell and underworld.

If we say that the greatest and most rare function of faith and the existence of God is to punish the good and punish the evil and to serve as a warning to the world.

Acrisius wanted to keep his power and live longer, but he also didn't want to be liquidated after his death and struggle in the river of hell.

People always want to leave a way out for themselves.

In such a dilemma, coupled with his guilt and affection for Danaë, Acrisius chose to give up.

His tone became very gentle, even with a hint of kindness as he spoke to Danaë.

"Daughter, you know how difficult it is for me, and you also know how important the prophecy is to me."

"Although I have confined you, you should also understand my painstaking efforts."

Before he finished speaking, Danae took over very consciously.

"Father, I understand, you don't have to worry."

"I will never come into contact with anyone. Even if someone comes here, I will call you first."

Looking at his daughter's bright eyes and innocent expression, Acrisius felt much more relieved.

Yes, my daughter is still very well behaved and she will listen to me.

The last trace of doubt was dispelled, and Acrisius also mustered up some confidence and no longer worried about it.

Finally, after taking a few glances at the environment in the room, he nodded and left.

From beginning to end, he failed to notice Eros, who had been sitting in front of him as if nothing had happened.

Eros was at ease, as if he had watched a good show, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Father and king, emotions and desires, under such complicated emotions and identities, he wanted to kill you three times, but he suppressed it three times."

"So you think he's a good father?"

In the scene just now, under the night sky, the father, a king, tested his own daughter. There was murderous intent hidden beneath the warmth and jewels.

This is truly a rare good show, something you won't see on Mount Olympus.

The goddesses are all immortal. No matter how fierce the feud between them is, it is nothing more than a fight. They cannot kill each other at all.

"Oh, I almost forgot, you are not a good daughter, at least not compared to my daughter."

Eros suddenly laughed again and looked at Danae.

The good daughter in her father's eyes is not honest at all. She lies to his face without blushing or feeling nervous, and her innocent expression is very real.

Although even if he really did it, it would be meaningless.

At that time, the scene will become that Danae comes back to life, the Son of God is born through surrogacy, and everything goes back to normal.

"Isn't this the kind of thing that the gods want to see, so they arranged it on purpose?"

It was hard to tell whether she was dissatisfied or relieved, Danae said softly, without answering Eros' question.

"No, no, no, we are watching a drama, not a puppet show. You are not puppets in the hands of God." "Evil and alienation will only lead to evil consequences. Even if there is no prophecy, he will do the same when you grow up and have children."

The oracles and prophecies merely planted the seeds of panic for Acrisius in advance.

Even without this seed, Acrisius would still do the same thing as he aged and lost control of his power.

Suspicious of his daughter, suspicious of his own children, suspicious of his own subordinates, God did not create all this, he just added fuel to the fire in advance.

"In fact, your father can completely disregard this prophecy. He can even directly make your future child the heir."

"If he had never cared about the gain or loss of his throne from the beginning, how could this prophecy come true for him?"

Eros said with a hint of meaning.

When disasters strike for no reason, it is God's will. But apart from natural disasters and diseases, how many tragedies are really caused by God's will?

Those demigod heroes all had tragic origins, but can their real faults really be attributed to fate?
Jason did not carry any prophecy on his shoulders, and even his journey was blessed by many gods, but it still ended in tragedy.

Can this also be blamed on God's trick?

The gods would never intervene in human affairs directly and in the most straightforward way.

All prophecies and blessings are nothing more than external influences that can be overcome.

What really determines everything is still one's own character and choices.

"You are right."

After hearing what Eros said, Danae smiled, stood up from the couch, and walked to Eros in three or two steps.

"So what are you going to do next? Are you going to shoot me with the arrow of divine love?"

"After all, for a drama like this, the first step is always to give birth to the child of prophecy."

Danae smiled sweetly, her golden hair dragging on the ground, and she knelt softly in front of Eros, her eyes flashing constantly, with no trace of her previous innocence.

Acrisius' biggest misjudgment was about his own daughter.

He thought Danae didn't understand anything and was still at an ignorant and naive age, so she was locked in a high tower and had no contact with anyone.

In fact, as Hera's oracle, it would be meaningless to imprison her body.

She could learn everything that happened in the city through the oracle, and she could still receive oracles from Hera.

Don't leave this tower and be an innocent Rapunzel.

On the one hand, the oracle had not arrived yet, and on the other hand, perhaps she was waiting, waiting for her father to break free from this self-fulfilling prophecy.

It’s just a pity that it seems the oracle arrived ahead of Acrisius.

Looking at this girl with a sweet smile, Eros felt a little weird inside for some reason.

After all, Danaë was a follower of Hera, even a fanatic, priest, and oracle of Hera.

Considering the relationship between Eros and Hera, it felt a little strange that she could kneel so obediently and docilely in front of Eros.

"Heh, didn't you just tell your father that you would never come in contact with anyone?"

"correct."

Danae smiled sweetly and spoke softly.

"But you're not a human, are you? No one else has been in this room, and I haven't had any contact with anyone else."

　Now I am thinking whether it is necessary for Perseus to be a sissy?

　　It seems unnecessary. I am not that interested in his wife. She is not as good as his mother.
