I weave my destiny in parallel time and space
Chapter 40 Sisyphus
The Book of the Dead being revised is a huge event for groups like the God of Death.
After Balu and Sebastian reported this matter, the staff working in Hades began to pass it on to the top one by one. No one dared to deal with this kind of thing.
Finally, the news was reported to the Great Death God, who had just awakened from his long sleep not long ago, that is, the original Death God-Tanatos.
Thanatos and his brother did not have a very high status in Greek mythology in the past. They were just two gods of Pluto, and they did not even have a decent palace.
After the Greek gods fell into eternal sleep, he took charge of the underworld and built a very large castle in the underworld. Since it was built later, it is very similar to the architectural style of Britannia. It is a baroque castle. .
In the oval office in the tower on the left side of the castle, Thanatos was sitting at his desk, frowning slightly as he looked at the two low-level Shinigami kneeling on the ground in front of him.
It was a classic Greek image, with black hair, black eyes, and three-dimensional facial features, especially the straight nose, which was a classic Greek nose.
He was wearing the same black robe as them, but he had a pair of black wings behind him.
Sebas and Balu faced Thanatos in a prostrate posture, trembling slightly and not daring to say a word.
It was the first time for both of them to see the real God of Death.
There was silence in the entire palace, and Thangka, who had greeted Sebas not long ago, stood beside the Great Death holding documents.
"Is what you said true?" Thanatos asked solemnly, "Has the Book of the Dead been changed?"
His voice was steady, speaking an ancient Greek language, but everyone could understand it, regardless of whether they knew the language or not.
Balu raised his head, "You can explore our memories, or...or we can bring that Hart back for questioning."
Thanatos came back to his senses and stroked his forehead with a headache. He was silent for a moment and waved his hands to the two little gods of death.
"I know about this, please step back first."
Sebas and Baru looked at each other, and each could see a little surprise in the other's eyes.
Before they came to the palace, they made two assumptions about the reaction of the Great Death, or they didn't believe what they said.
Or he was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter. After all, although it is too rough to directly change the Book of the Dead, in a sense this can be regarded as interfering with death.
This is considered provoking Hades.
But he never thought that the Great Death would react like this.
It seemed like he believed them, but he was so calm.
But this kind of thing is not something that little people like them can ask about. From now on, this matter is none of their business.
They stood up obediently and left the office.
"I finally understand what woke me up."
Thanatos turned his head and looked out the window with deep eyes. It was a fiery red magma purgatory, with countless evil spirits wailing in it, and everything he could see was scorched earth.
Thangka tilted his head in confusion, but said nothing.
The entire office was silent. After a long time, Thanatos let out a soft breath.
He has actually encountered this kind of thing in the past.
In fact, it is not that He left no legends in the world.
In "Homer's Epic", there is such a very famous story called "Sisyphus"
According to records, Sisyphus was the most resourceful and ingenious man on earth. He was the founder and king of Corinth.
When Zeus abducted Igina, the daughter of the river god Esops, the river god went to Corinth to look for her daughter. Sisyphus, who knew this, told her in exchange for a river that flowed all year round.
Because Zeus's secrets were revealed, Zeus sent the God of Death to escort him to hell.
Unexpectedly, Sisyphus used a trick to kidnap the God of Death, causing no one to die in the world for a long time until the God of Death was rescued, and Sisyphus was cast into the underworld.
Before being cast into the underworld, Sisyphus asked his wife Merope not to bury his body.
After arriving in the underworld, Sisyphus told Persephone, Queen of the Underworld, that a person who has not been buried is not qualified to stay in the underworld, and asked for three days to take leave to deal with his funeral affairs.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Sisyphus saw the beautiful earth, he refused to leave and did not want to return to Hades.
After his death, Sisyphus was sentenced to being pushed up a mountain.
He wanted to push a big stone to the other side of the top of the mountain, but due to the weight of the stone, every time he pushed it to the top of the mountain, the stone would roll back down. Sisyphus could only repeat it over and over again.
This is a true story.
What many people, and even some gods, didn't know was that before this happened, Thanatos had met a man, an old man.
That was a mortal with no divine aura. At that time, all the Greek gods looked down upon mortals. To the gods, mortals were nothing more than insects on the ground.
He was also like that at that time, and therefore offended the old man.
He said that he wanted to give himself a punishment to make him realize the power of mortals.
At that time, He didn't take it seriously, and even had some disdain. It wasn't until not long after that what happened to Sisyphus happened.
God kidnapped by mortals?
And he is the most terrifying god of death to mortals! ?
This sounds extremely outrageous to both mortals and gods, and it just happened.
He became the laughing stock of the divine world and an incompetent clown in the Greek pantheon.
Until now, this incident has been the greatest shame in Thanatos' life.
This is why after He took control of the power of Hades, He chose to delete all records about this matter.
During those years of being imprisoned by that mortal, He also knew one thing.
In this world, there are indeed some terrifying powers that even the gods cannot imagine.
He believed it, but the twelve main Greek gods, including Zeus, did not believe it and even kept laughing at his incompetence.
Then they fell into eternal sleep.
And He became the Lord of Hades.
He was silent for a moment and then spoke.
"Send the order and inform all the Shinigami, including the trainee Shinigami.
If you encounter something like the Book of the Dead being changed in the future, don't report it again and treat it as if nothing happened. "
Thangka leaned forward and answered without any doubts.
"Yes."
Then he left the office.
And Thanatos fell into deep thought again.
If it really was that existence, he wanted to hide it so that no one would notice his existence.
But now, it is obviously not his style of doing things.
Thanatos thought of the voice that woke him up from his sleep before. He seemed to have realized something and slowly stood up from his seat.
Yes, that must be the case.
This should be something he exposed to himself intentionally, and he had some message to convey to himself.
It seems that I need to take a trip to the human world.
It seems that I haven't picked up other people this week and haven't been recommended. However, I am in a good mood now, but I still ask for a follow-up reading and various tickets, and don't buy it before it is put on the shelves.
