[Greek mythology] Queen of the gods

Tartarus is filled with the endless cries of imprisoned monsters, piercing and piercing, but no normal god can survive here.

But there are always some exceptions, and I heard a lazy cat-like voice from the depths of Tartarus, "Hecate, stop cleaning up."

The goddess called 'Hecate' did not stop her actions because of this coquettish prayer, but she didn't even bother to raise her eyelids, "My respected Highness Tartarus, please forgive Hecate for wanting to I went to Hades, the king of the underworld, and I can't listen to your childish and boring words." Hecate's voice was cold and cold, completely different from the soft and waxy voice of the god who looked like a young man with white skin and ugly appearance.

I saw Tartaros' deep black eyes rolling several times in their sockets, as if he was thinking about how to make this cold goddess listen to him, but he quickly gave up this meaningless behavior, Instead, he complained to Hecate: "Really, Hades obviously has your brother, why did he ask you to go to the post!"

"Everything is arranged by fate." Hecate carefully flipped through the information she collected in Tartarus, "Besides, my sisters are still here. If you are bored, you can talk to them." At that time, the four characters of 'Don't bother me' were almost written on the face of this goddess of darkness.

One of Tartarus' hair curled up in dissatisfaction, but seeing Hecate's cold face comparable to Hades, Tartarus himself was defeated first, there was no way, he I really can't get angry with such meticulous gods, because just as a spark appeared in his heart, he was frightened away by their cold appearance, but obviously his divine power is stronger than them!

This is an ancient puzzle, but Tartarus didn't want to solve it, but stuck out his tongue playfully at Hecate, "I don't want your sister! The old witch Nemesis came here last time." Once, I don’t want to go to eat all day!”

"Please respect my sister." Hecate continued to write some long and complicated words, and didn't see Tartarus's annoyed look at all, but even if he did, Hecate would not Expressed.

After staying here for so many years, if she didn't understand the childish temperament of the ruler of the hell abyss, then Hecate would have worked here for thousands of years.

"Hecate, I will miss you." Tartarus' big dark eyes are as pure and flawless as a deer in the forest. The boy hugged her in her arms and rubbed her, but Hecate was not an ordinary goddess. She simply replied, "Thank you for your concern." Then she continued to work.

Tartarus made a lot of fun, and stuck out his tongue at Hecate, "Obviously your mother goddess Nix is ​​such a funny and charming goddess, how could she give birth to such an ice cube like you!" He shattered a stone not far away as if venting, "No wonder Hades asked you to go to him! It's really strange that people are all gathered together!" After speaking, Tartarus became more and more perverse , Counted down a lot of gods in the underworld.

But Hecate was not affected at all, instead wrote the last paragraph, then carefully closed the thick tome, looked at Tartarus with a pair of brown eyes and said: "Please hurry up and put away your fickle things. Temper, I think you have a visitor from Olympus."

Tartarus tilted his head, fluttered his nose slightly, and said angrily, "Why is Zeus, like his annoying father god, sending some so-called main gods to see what we are doing from time to time?" He also intentionally scattered the materials that Hecate had sorted out with great difficulty, expressing his dissatisfaction in such a naive way, "We really want to rebel, is that little Zeus still our opponent?"

"Your Highness Tartarus, if you don't arrange these papers before I bring the guests in, you will know the consequences." After saying this, Hecate went out to meet the guests on Mount Olympus.

And Tartarus was doing what Hecate told him with regret at the moment, obviously he should have ordered Hecate to do some trivial things, how could it be the other way around?

Before Tartaros could figure out why he was so afraid of the Nether Goddess, he felt several strands of divine power coming towards him, one of which was Hecate's, and the rest...

When Hera saw the ruler of Tartaros at such a young age for the first time, he was surprised in his heart. Hera had always imagined that the personified god of Tartaros was a gloomy figure. Like an uncle or something.And Metis beside him also had a slightly surprised look on his face, but this flashing look was caught by Tartaros, who frowned slightly in disgust, and deliberately turned His voice became a lot more gloomy, so that he looked very solemn, "Are you Hera and Metis?"

"Yes, respected Tartarus." Metis bowed gracefully to the young man in front of him. I have to say that Metis' gesture was very useful to the ruler of the abyss of hell. Seeing him He nodded his head very satisfied, and asked again: "Why did you come here to Tartarus?" There was a flash of displeasure, because every time the gods outside mentioned the word 'Tartaros', they always looked disgusted and hated, although they knew that they hated this abyss and not themselves, But it still made this solemn ruler very unhappy.

Hera replied directly: "I hope you can bless this goddess of wisdom who is carrying the Son of God."

"I believe Olympus is more suitable for this beautiful and noble goddess." Tartarus immediately rejected Hera's request, because he didn't want to take in those hypocrites in Olympus. Speaking of which, the cold Heka Teko is hundreds of times cuter than those guys.

When Metis heard the merciless rebuff from the ruler in front of him, his face immediately turned pale, and he stroked his stomach in fear, while Hera kept her expression as usual, and continued: "Olympus can no longer tolerate this goddess, Because if her child is a boy, he will overthrow his father Zeus."

Tartarus stroked his small and delicate chin, and looked at Hecate's reaction with dark eyes, and Hecate nodded solemnly, proving that Hera's words were true.

"But I took her in, and Zeus won't let me go." Speaking of this, the corners of Tartarus' lips curled up slightly, and the childishness on his face disappeared immediately, leaving only the cunning unique to those in power.

Hera also smiled slightly when she heard this, "I don't think you are afraid of the so-called king of the gods." Staring straight at the boy's jet-black eyes, Tartarus' curiosity was hooked. up.

"I can take Metis in." Tartaros's long hair fell casually on his front chair, he tilted his head slightly, and said meaningfully: "But my protection has a price, so Metis, are you ready to pay me the price?" This scene convinced Hera that this ruler is not as innocent as he appears on the surface. In fact, he knows that he can suppress those monsters and giants of Tartarus. What kind of stubble can this guy have.

When Metis heard Tartarus' question, a gloomy look appeared on his beautiful face, and his eyes were no longer as bright as before. He looked at Hera again, and saw that he did not intend to solve this problem for himself. Metis couldn't help feeling even more flustered, she didn't think about paying any price for Tartarus' protection.

Time passed little by little, and Tartarus couldn't stand it any longer. Regardless of the so-called kingly demeanor, he yawned, "Metis, if you don't want to pay the price, I ask you and Hera to leave here early." His place is not a charity hall, where anyone can do whatever they want.

Metis clenched her hand tightly, and the slight tingling in her palm reminded her what decision to make.

"I am willing to devote the rest of my endless life to His Royal Highness Tartarus."

Metis has firm eyes, and she clearly understands what this decision means.

"Metis, this will mean that you will never see the holy light of Olympus and the blue waves of your father God again, are you willing?" Tartarus again tested the soon-to-be The Goddess of Wisdom who betrayed everything.

"I swear by the River Styx, as long as I can obtain the protection of Her Majesty Tartarus, I am willing to be the companion of this endless night." Metis gritted his teeth and said this sentence, the last word At that moment, the beautiful holy light and bursts of waves flashed in her dark blue eyes.

Tartarus rested his chin, thought for a long time, and finally nodded to Hecate beside him.Hecate understood, and walked to Metis, "Metis, come with me." Saying that, he took Metis to a place where Hera could not see.

But Hera saw the appearance of Tartarus and Hecate, and knew that Metis was officially appointed by Tartarus from then on.But it's sad to think about it. The daughter of the eldest son of the dignified Titan can only come to Tartarus, whom all gods hate, to seek protection, just to give birth to the child in her womb.

While thinking about it like this, at some point, Tartaros appeared beside Hera. He looked at Hera carefully and said, "As the elder brother of Zeus, bring the child who will overthrow Zeus at any time like this." Come to me, aren't you afraid?"

"What are you afraid of?" Hera looked calm, not paying attention to Tartaros' scrutiny.

"Aren't you afraid that I will use that child to overthrow your family? Aren't you afraid that Zeus will bring his wrath down on you?" Tartarus smirked. At this moment, he was like a mischievous ghost who just made a prank.

"How you use that child has nothing to do with me." Besides, the child is not a boy, so Hera is not worried. As for Zeus, Hera smiled contemptuously, "I have already offended the king of the gods, I am afraid that the anger will come to me sooner or later."

Tartarus didn't get the look he wanted from Hera's face, but it made the playful master more interested in the red-haired son of Cronus than Heka That silent ice cube is hundreds of times more fun!

"I offended Zeus, I'm afraid you won't be able to get along on Olympus." Before Hera could respond, Tartarus expressed his thoughts first.

"Stay here, Hera." His eyes were sincere, but Hera only asked briefly, "Why?"

"Of course it's to keep you from being burned by Zeus' anger. After all, you are so interesting." Tartarus paused for a moment, and in a blink of an eye, he saw the corners of his eyes crooked, as if thinking of something interesting.

"Also...that is, I have my eyes on you, Hera."
