[Greek Mythology] The Ugly God's Counterattack

Hephaestus didn't even look at Zeus, and replied directly: "Unlocking the chain will naturally have to wait for His Majesty the God King to come back."

Zeus walked up to Hera, looked into her eyes, and saw the anger and jealousy in her eyes.After a slight pause, Zeus turned his head and glanced meaningfully at Hephaestus next to him, then raised his voice and said, "There is nothing more important than my noble queen, you will explain to my beloved wife now." Let's break the chain."

hypocritical!Hephaestus despised him in his heart, but on the surface he was still the same as before: "Of course."

Zeus nodded in satisfaction, and took a few steps back to signal Hephaestus to start.

Hephaestus stretched out his right hand, and with a light grip, the chain on the chair began to loosen, and then a line of fire gushed out from the dark red chain, and the scorching fire quickly spread along the line of fire.In the astonishment of the gods, Hephaestus opened his palm, the flames disappeared in an instant, and the chains also turned into nothingness in an instant, as if they had never appeared before. Only the hideous scars on Hera's skin showed that all of this was real.

Hera, who was untied, patted her chest, gasping for breath as if she was still in shock. She looked at Hephaestus with a calm face, and regretted it very much. If she had known that this child was so powerful, she would not have abandoned him in the first place.

Afraid of being retaliated against again, Hera also wanted to flatter her, so Hera ignored Zeus' affair and lowered her voice to Hephaestus: "Hephaestus, Hephaestus, when my My eyes are covered by dark clouds, and the dark mist prevents me from seeing your beautiful heart, my child, can you forgive me, a mother who longs for forgiveness?"

After Hera finished speaking, the other gods also turned their eyes to Hephaestus in unison, wondering how he would answer, and Zeus even raised his eyebrows at him with a playful face.

Hephaestus pursed his lips and walked slowly in front of Hera, reaching out to touch her injured cheek, his movements were gentle as if he was treating the most precious baby, his eyes were full of doting: "Dear mother , from the moment I untie you, all hatred will disappear with that flame."

Hephaestus always has an irresistible attraction when he speaks in a low voice, and there seems to be magic in his magnetic voice.Hera only felt her head was empty, looking at Hephaestus' eyes at a loss.

"What a lovely scene," Zeus came up, took Hephaestus's wrist, and pulled his hand from Hera's face, "then, my dear child, live on Mount Olympus from now on." , your mother would be very happy too, wouldn't she, Hera?"

"Yeah? Yes, yes," Hera came back to her senses and said hastily, "Hephaestus, you live on Mount Olympus and let mother make up for her past mistakes."

Hephaestus nodded, then looked at Zeus: "Your Majesty, the conditions you promised me should be fulfilled."

The smile in Zeus's eyes became stronger, and he scanned around the gods in the hall. Except for the sun god Apollo who was in the sun, Aphrodite, the god of beauty, and Ares, the god of war, were also missing, but this was not true. prevent him from announcing his decision.

"In the name of the king of the gods, I give Aphrodite, the god of beauty, to Hephaestus as his wife." Zeus's voice was not loud, but it was enough to surprise the gods. Among them, Hermes was the most obvious. He looked at Hephaestus in shock, as if he wanted to make sure that such a condition really passed Hephaestus' mouth.

Dionysus glanced at Hermes in surprise, and stood there without saying a word. Now is not the time for them to speak.

Hera pulled Zeus's hand almost in surprise, and confirmed again and again.You know, she has long disliked Aphrodite, seduced her husband, and messed with other gods. Marrying the ugliest Hephaestus is undoubtedly the worst thing for Aphrodite. bad punishment.

A smug flash of Hera's eyes, although it disappeared quickly, was caught by Hephaestus, and he looked away calmly, Hephaestus said goodbye to his mother Thetis and his mother who raised him. Eurynome left the temple for reasons.

Not long after he walked out of the temple, Hermes, who was chasing him, stopped him, "Hephaestus!"

Hephaestus turned around and looked at Hermes raising his eyebrows slightly. He didn't know what was going on with him at this time. He always liked to tease Hermes, "Dear Hermes, call Live me because you miss me?"

Hermes did not answer, and strode up to Hephaestus: "Hephaestus, why did you propose such a condition to His Majesty the God King?"

"What condition?" Hephaestus pretended to be stupid.

Hermes' face darkened: "Just let Aphrodite marry you."

"Isn't this normal?" Hephaestus said in an ambiguous tone, "Aphrodite is beautiful and attractive, even men can't resist."

"Who said that! I don't like it!" Hermes frowned, and retorted loudly: "Her hypocritical appearance took advantage of the skin that had been touched by countless hands, and the dirt blocked the air. What kind of eyes do you have!"

He didn't expect Hermes to say that. Hephaestus was stunned for a moment. After realizing it, he reached out and lifted Hermes' chin, and slowly approached his face. The distance between the two was not enough. five millimeters.

Seeing Hermes' nervousness in his eyes, Hephaestus smiled lightly, and as he spoke, his warm breath sprayed on Hermes' cheeks, tickling, "Dear Hermes, my vision is not good enough. I need your question."

"I..." Hermes was speechless for a moment.

Hephaestus straightened up and patted Hermes on the shoulder, "I'll go first, dear Hermes, see you next time." After speaking, he ignored Hermes and left sideways Mount Olympus.

The words that Zeus announced in the temple were like the last thunder in spring, and the gods of Mount Olympus were caught off guard.But in a short time, the news that Aphrodite was given to Hephaestus by Zeus had already spread. Of course, among them, Hera's push was indispensable.

In the palace of Goddess of Beauty, Aphrodite almost frantically pushed away the food on the table, and threw all kinds of exquisite jewelry vases on the ground as if venting. Be careful to be implicated by Aphrodite's anger.

Ares, who was sitting by the bed, also looked angry. He and Aphrodite had a good time playing on the bed, but he heard from the maid that Zeus would give Aphrodite to Hephaestus. , The enthusiasm between the two faded in an instant, which is undoubtedly very bad news, which means that their future private meetings will be extremely troublesome.

"Ares, what do you think I should do!" Aphrodite held her head in her hands, hysterical: "The ugliest guy, his face must be so ugly that it makes all the gods sick, and he must be worse than the evil one in the abyss wrapped in darkness and turbidity." Worms are even more unbearable! It is said that he is still a lame, Ares, you know! I can't imagine it!"

Ares hugged Aphrodite: "My beautiful goddess, please don't panic, my soul is always with you, the ugliness of Hephaestus will only bring out the beauty of your holy knot, our love Enough to annihilate everything!"

"Ares, my love, please hug me tightly and kiss me!" As soon as Aphrodite finished speaking, the two rolled onto the bed, and the ambiguous voice came out intermittently.

The maids silently cleaned up the wreckage on the ground and quietly exited the palace.

At this time, Hephaestus, who was described by Aphrodite as ugly, was waving goodbye to Thetis and Eurynome in the palace deep in the ocean.

Seeing the tears in the eyes of the two goddesses, Hephaestus gave him a lot of exquisite and gorgeous jewelry. After repeatedly emphasizing that he would visit them often, the two goddesses reluctantly let him go.

After leaving the depths of the ocean, Hephaestus was not in a hurry to return to Mount Olympus, but entered a dense forest.

"Right here." He said to Huo Qilin in the space of consciousness.

"Okay, I will connect the Stykes River in the underworld to this place now, and you must lead the underworld fire in the river here within 30 seconds."

"Well," Hephaestus replied, he had discussed with the fire unicorn, and only by integrating the flames of the underworld into his fire godhead can he truly achieve a breakthrough in strength. Said very helpful.

Hephaestus closed his eyes, restrained his mind, followed the channel connected by the fire unicorn, and merged his consciousness into the dark fire burning under the Styx River.

Obviously, water and fire should be incompatible, but the water in the Styx River is always accompanied by the underworld fire.

The raging fire of darkness spread fiercely throughout his body, mixed with the groans of those unwilling to die and the mournful sighs of the undead.In the underworld abandoned by the sun, in the cold sorrow, the flames are extremely hot. If it weren't for the godhead of fire, Hephaestus would have been burned to ashes by the flames of the undead's grief.

Suppressing the discomfort in his heart, Hephaestus quickly gathered the fires surrounding him.

And right now.

Through the pure black water of the Styx River, he suddenly saw a vague figure appearing on the river, his eyes met each other, a strong sense of oppression invaded his heart through layers of burning fire, and he didn't have time to think more , Hephaestus quickly led the flame out of the underworld in the last few seconds.

When consciousness returned to his body, Hephaestus opened his eyes suddenly. Just as he was about to leave the forest, a dark breath appeared behind him, and the air was filled with the oppression of death.

"Who are you."

He heard a voice behind him, low and cold.
