Greece: Zeus made me the queen of heaven?

Chapter 96 Zeus's Careful Selection, Trustworthy

Chapter 96 Zeus's Careful Selection, Trustworthy
Eros never thought that one day he would meet these silver humans again.

There were even faces that he had seen in his real life. At this moment, they had turned into laughing elves and were running around.

They laughed happily, but Eros couldn't laugh at all.

He still remembered the longing look in their eyes when he was grilling meat in front of them.

They were full of desire and passion, and began to transform from wandering clay dolls into human beings, and their lives began to burn.

It’s a pity that the time was too short. In about half a month, Eros didn’t have time to completely change them.

But now seeing them again in the underworld, Eros felt somewhat complicated.

"The laughing elves underground are indeed laughing all the time."

Eros' tone was somewhat complicated.

These silver humans have become even less human than they were in their lifetime.

Not just a form of existence, but also a state of mind.

They completely lost their physical desires and turned into elves who knew only laughter and play.

"Isn't this bad?"

Hades looked at the laughing elves who were playing, and his tone was even a little envious.

“You don’t need to worry or think about anything. You don’t have any unnecessary worries or desires. Even God may not be as happy as them.”

Eros had to agree with this.

"Indeed, if you are a normal person, you would probably envy their mental state and life, right?"

No worries or sorrows, just have fun happily all day long.

Who wouldn’t want to live a life like this?

But unfortunately, Eros is not a normal person.

"I just think that their lives are meaningless."

Eros sighed.

“The meaning of laughter lies not in the laughter itself, but in the reason for laughing.”

"Blindly and without reason, just because I am such an elf, I will laugh non-stop."

"It would be fine if they were natural elves, but I feel a little uncomfortable when I think that they were once human beings."

Eros is not a kind and benevolent person. He does not care about the survival and life and death of human beings because of personal feelings.

What I once said to Hera about respecting individual opinions was just a statement I made to improve her favorability at the time.

He is a person who will do anything according to his likes and desires. Whether he is a superman or a countryman, there is always uncertainty.

The only thing that is certain is that Eros likes things that are full of love and romance.

He likes to see people working hard for something, even if the obstacles that hinder them are set by him.

He will be indifferent to the death of other lives, no matter whether the other party accepts it calmly or struggles until the last moment before death.

The attitudes of different lives towards death, and the emotions and thoughts they contain, are what Eros likes to see.

Just like he likes to pursue beautiful goddesses, each goddess is different in her attitude towards him.

The different emotions contained in it are what Eros likes most, not just lust.

Therefore, these laughing elves who have no desires, which means no emotions, are the most meaningless things to Eros.

Even if Eros slashed their companions with his sword, they would not understand the emotions of loss and death and would continue to laugh.

If they were just born this way, Eros wouldn't mind.

But unfortunately, these are the creatures transformed from the original silver humans.

This made Eros recall that if he had not met Zeus, would he have turned into a laughing elf like these silver humans?

The thought of this made Eros feel a little unacceptable. He would rather be convicted and thrown into the River Styx to float there.

It would be better to finally crawl out of the River Styx and wander around as a guilty soul than this.

Now Eros probably realized the importance of the name that Nyx mentioned.

He is Eros, not only the primordial god representing love in the pantheon, but also Eros representing the source of power of the world in Orpheus.

Whether it is human, God, or other life, only with desire and passion will they transform and influence the world.

It is because of this impulse and desire that Phanes tore the world egg apart, was born from chaos, and created this world.

"Sure enough, it's impossible to live without love."

Eros suddenly muttered this, leaving Hades a little confused.

What does he mean by saying this suddenly?
"If you don't like them, I'll move them somewhere else."

However, Hades saw that Eros didn't like these laughing elves very much, so he just said this.

"That's not necessary, I just feel a little emotional."

Eros shook his head and no longer cared about these laughing elves.

Just think of them as having grown back out of the ground; at most their faces may look familiar.

There are now new humans on earth who are more perfect, but perhaps weaker than them, and live a more miserable life.

In Elysium, Hades took Eros to where she had been staying in the underworld during this time.

A somewhat gloomy girl walked out of the hut, with a strong smell of the underworld.

"Lord Hades, you are back?"

She had a happy smile on her face, but after seeing Eros and Persephone, her smile became a little stiff.

"Mingta, please receive my guests."

Hades ordered naturally.

The person in front of her was the only nymph maid beside her, Minta, the daughter of the weeping river god Kocytus.

She left Mount Olympus alone and came to the underworld without any other nymphs. Mingta was someone she met in the underworld, and she was also her first team member in the underworld.

"Lord Hades, who are they?"

Whether it was the handsome Eros or the dazzling Persephone, both made Mingta feel uneasy.

Compared with these two people, her originally confident appearance seemed mediocre.

"This is my friend and guest, Eros. You must not treat him with disrespect just because he is human."

Eros looked at the maid in front of him, racking his brain, and finally remembered who she was.

It seems like she is Hades' lover. She is dissatisfied with Persephone becoming the Queen of the Underworld, and she spreads the word that she is more noble, more beautiful, and more favored by Hades.

In the end, either Persephone turns them into mint, or Persephone leaves them with only ashes, and then mint grows in the ashes.

In a word, it's the bottom.

It’s hard not to wonder if the Greeks were too high on mint when they made up this story, so minta was low on it.

But now Eros probably understood what was going on.

Just think of her as Hades' lover, that's the downside.

But now it was clear that Minta was the one who came first, and Persephone was the last.

Eros suddenly felt amused and wanted to watch Hades's Shura show.

“And this one.”

Hades brought Persephone over, and a happy smile appeared on his veiled face.

"She is the mistress of the underworld that I chose. She is also the master you will serve in the future. You must never forget her."

Sure enough, after Hades said this.

Eros saw that Mingta's pretty face, which was already somewhat gloomy, became even gloomier.

But she still had to force a smile in front of Hades and pretend that she didn't care.

"I see. Lord Hades, you really did a lot of things this time. You must be very tired, right?"

The little nymph-maid listened, but not completely.

She brushed aside Hades' words and found an excuse to do other things.

"Sorry, this place is a bit too simple."

After Mingta retreated, Hades smiled apologetically at the two of them.

Honestly, if I hadn't just seen her forcibly snatching the loli Persephone and fighting with Demeter and the others.

Eros said he didn't believe that the gentle and tolerant beauty in front of him was Hades, the god of the underworld.

Although she did have a strong smell of death and pomegranate flowers, and was indeed dressed like a black bride of the dead.

But her character is indeed hard to dislike.

Just like the gentle widow next door, she always has a hint of sadness but is very gentle and tolerant of everything you do.

If becoming the Queen of the Underworld didn't mean she had to stay in the underworld forever, Eros would have been tempted.

But this also made Eros a little confused. Why did Hades and Demeter fight to the point of life and death?
With a personality like hers, she should be the type to quietly step back and not cause trouble to others.

If you have questions, ask them.

Having suffered a loss once in this regard, Eros will never make the same mistake again.

After he sat down, he asked Hades directly:

"Actually, I'm very confused. Why do you have to choose Persephone? Do you really like her that much?"

"Are you recommending yourself?"

Hades took off his veil and some unnecessary accessories, revealing a face that was somewhat similar to Zeus, and looked at Eros with raised eyebrows.

"Did I see it wrong just now? You actually like me very much?"

"If that was the case, I wouldn't have said it was a joke at the time."

Okay, take it back, this guy is not tolerant of everything.

She still has some bad intentions.

"When you say that, it makes me feel like you are greedy for my body."

Eros said righteously.

"I think we should start by being friends and finding out how we feel about each other."

Mingta, who was delivering something, was hit hard on the butt.

What's going on? I just went out for a while, why do I feel like everyone in the world is my enemy now?

Eros glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and sighed in his heart.

This kid is 100% destined to be a loser, there is no doubt about it.

From any perspective, she can't compare to Persephone.

In terms of appearance, background, and even personality, the simple and gullible Persephone is more suitable than her.

It seems that Hades is well aware that the wife should be generous and tolerant.

"I want your body? That's not impossible."

Hades had a smile in his eyes and did not notice Mingta's gaffe.

"I'm also curious about what the criteria for Zeus's selection are."

 I found that in Greek mythology and philosophy, the source of power and impulse from human beings are highly regarded.

  In the ancient version of Orphicism, Eros was even the father of Phanes, who created the world.

  This may also be why Greek mythology is full of human colors.
