Then, Nuoyan began to mutter, as if he was talking to the gods who were watching him, and as if he was talking to himself.
"It turns out that death is so much simpler than living."
Persephone was slightly stunned when she heard this, and was looking at Nuoyan in confusion.
"If this is really the last moment of my life, the ending I have been looking forward to, it shouldn't be so dull. I think... I should at least draw a picture."
"This painting should be dedicated to you who have been watching me, the goddesses who have made a vow with me, my teacher and friends, and... myself."
"But I don't have a pen or a canvas now, what should I do?"
"Well... let's do this."
Nuoyan smiled, and then he broke the painting under his feet.
Pegasus ran out of the painting, and in the surprised eyes of the goddess Persephone and the gods who were watching this scene, he spread his silver-white wings in the underworld.
Sheltering beside Nuoyan.
Nuoyan played the lyre in his hand, and a gentle smile appeared on his face again, and the sound of the harp became cheerful.
"Just like the night that night, the canvas is not the night, but the darkness I am in now.
And I... am the brush!"
Using darkness as the canvas and himself as the brush.
Nuoyan smiled, and the golden harp in his hand played a cheerful sound, and then he took a step forward gently.
At that moment, Nuoyan felt that wonderful feeling... It was the feeling when he sketched the goddess of wisdom, Pegasus and the hundred-eyed giant.
One step out,
It was like a drop of water falling into a mirror-like lake, spreading waves.
The waves spread out with Nuoyan's feet.
The surrounding darkness was outlined little by little, and along with the spreading waves, the eternal dark underworld began to be made into a picture.
The picture appeared in the eyes of Nuoyan who could not see anything and fell into the darkness.
So Nuoyan, who lost his hearing and could not see, ‘saw’.
He saw the entire underworld being painted and presented.
And not only that,
As the waves spread farther and farther, Nuoyan felt the real gaze.
So he saw it, saw the gods on the holy mountain of Olympus, who were looking at him in surprise.
They occupied one foot in the painting, they looked surprised, with different expressions, standing up or sitting down.
At the same time, Nuoyan also saw that the goddess Hecate, who had been hiding not far away and watching here all the time.
Well... she is really a very beautiful goddess.
This time, Nuoyan saw her face under the veil, and he couldn't help thinking so in his heart.
So far, this painting centered on Nuoyan appeared.
Then Nuoyan took another step,
With this step, the pleasant sound of the piano began to echo in the ears of all the creatures who were watching here.
Under the sound of the piano, the souls who had lost their minds all stopped.
The light broke through the underworld and shone on Nuoyan.
That power healed Nuoyan's injuries.
Seeing this scene, Athena and others naturally focused their attention on Apollo.
"It's not me!" Apollo, who was also surprised, waved his hand and said, "The child's piano sound made the lyre respond to him!"
Nuoyan naturally "saw" the sunlight, and he also understood that it was the lyre in his hand that responded to him.
Then Nuoyan looked at the underworld in front of him, and he smiled.
"Goddess Persephone, let's go."
Nuoyan smiled softly to Persephone, who was completely stagnant behind him, and said, "Hades, the god of the underworld, should have been waiting for us for a long time."
Chapter 71 Since it is a painting, it should be beautiful (6.5k)
Mount Olympus,
Inside the temple.
"What happened?" The elegant goddess, Queen Hera, looked at the smiling boy in the underworld from afar, with a blank look in her eyes.
At this moment, Hera actually felt some changes vaguely, but she didn't understand.
Even the clever and cunning Hermes was also confused at this time.
On the contrary, Artemis tilted her head, looking surprised, as if she had reacted.
Because she had seen the promise in the painting, and at that time she rescued Atalanta, her lovely little believer who accidentally entered the painting.
And Artemis is the second main god to receive the promise painting so far, except Athena.
Therefore, Athena, the only one who fully understood what was happening at the moment, naturally smiled, and her flawless face bloomed with a beautiful smile like a painting at this moment.
She stood up,
"He did it again."
Under the gaze of the gods who heard the voice and subconsciously looked at her, Athena said with emotion: "He once again did a miracle that made me amazed!"
"What is going on, Athena?" Hearing this, Hera, who also stood up, couldn't help asking.
Athena glanced at her, then looked at the gazes of the gods converging towards her, and finally looked at the goddess of fate who did not speak, but stood beside her sister, holding the crystal ball.
Smiling, her golden eyes looked into the underworld at this time, and she took another step, playing the promise of cheerful piano music, and said: "He is painting a picture."
"Painting?" Hera was slightly stunned and recalled what Nuoyan had just said.
"Yes, a painting." Athena nodded and recalled the painting she had received at the beginning.
That was also the painting that Nuoyan first presented to the gods, depicting the truest side of the goddess of wisdom.
To put it in the simplest terms, that day, Nuoyan had completely seen through the legendary goddess of wisdom.
"Because the child was thinking that if today was really his end, the ending he expected should never be so plain, but magnificent!"
"So he painted it, he used the falling darkness as the canvas, himself as the brush, and depicted everything centered on him at the moment. This is a painting dedicated to all those who watch and pay attention to him, and at the same time... it is also a painting dedicated to himself."
Everything in the underworld has been presented on Nuoyan's 'canvas'.
Athena knows this better than anyone else.
Because Athena still remembers the feeling that when Nuoyan painted her, everything about her seemed to be seen through by him.
Just when the gods heard this, they were slightly stunned.
"And since this is a painting... then Artemis, you should understand it, right?" Athena smiled and looked at Artemis, the moon goddess.
Artemis tilted her head. She didn't understand so much, but she knew one thing, that is...
"If, Xiao Nuoyan is really painting, then the next one will definitely be very beautiful." Artemis replied.
Using the night sky under the starry sky as the canvas and the sky lanterns lit by everyone as the brush.
Artemis had seen Nuoyan paint two paintings, and her biggest feeling about this was that it was beautiful.
"Yes." Athena nodded, then smiled and said: "Since it is his painting, then this painting must be... very beautiful!"
......
......
At this moment, the eternally dark underworld.
On the road of no return to the underworld.
"Goddess Persephone, can you do me a favor?"
Just as Persephone was still staring at Nuoyan in a daze, unable to react to what was happening in front of her, Nuoyan suddenly spoke.
He smiled and said, "It's not to help me complete this trial, but I hope that you, Goddess Persephone, can help me embellish my painting at this time."
Hearing Nuoyan's gentle voice, Persephone came back to her senses.
Her beautiful eyes stared at the boy in front of her. Although he still looked so fragile, he no longer had the feeling that he would go out at any time. At this moment, he seemed to have lit up the light of the eternal dark underworld, so dazzling and eye-catching.
Without waiting for Persephone to come back to her senses and answer, Nuoyan took another step.
At this moment, everything in the underworld was presented on his canvas, so he naturally walked on the most correct path.
Persephone subconsciously raised the underworld lamp and wanted to follow, but was stopped by Pegasus, who folded his wings and squatted beside her.
Pegasus gently called Persephone twice.
After Persephone understood, she looked at Nuoyan again.
He no longer needed the underworld lamp, because the seven-stringed lyre of Apollo, the god of light, responded to him here.
At this moment, Nuoyan's lyre sounded like his friend Orpheus.
Whether it was trees, stones or even the undead who had lost their minds, they were happy or sad because of his lyre sound, so the noisy undead stopped, listened to his lyre sound, shed tears of the undead, and then turned into underworld light and disappeared in the underworld.
"...Embellishing, is this what it means?" Persephone, who saw a corner of the scroll in front of her, seemed to understand something at this time.
So she sat on the Pegasus, and the Pegasus spread its wings and brought Persephone to the sky above the underworld.
Then Persephone blew the seeds all over the underworld.
In this regard, no Hades came out to stop it, and they even helped secretly, because for the gods of the underworld, such a grand scene is probably something they will not see many times in their lives.
Goddess Persephone, she is the daughter of the goddess of agriculture Demeter, and the goddess of seeds. She represents the seeds sleeping in the underworld, and represents the seeds waking up and sprouting in the world.
Therefore, she is also the only goddess in ancient Greek mythology who can make the underworld bloom.
Therefore, under her divine power, various flowers bloomed on the underworld, and the flowers embellished the eternal dark underworld. They were laid beside Nuoyan, as if Nuoyan was not walking on the underworld at this moment, but in a paradise with spring all year round.
The gods watched Nuoyan playing the lyre, walking on this road. At this moment, Nuoyan was a brave man on trial, and also an elegant poet.
At this point, they finally understood what Nuoyan said and drew.
"What he painted is this trial..." Demeter, the goddess of agriculture, who had also been watching the picture, said in the temple.
Yes, what Nuoyan painted was the trial centered on himself, and because of this, everything in the trial was presented on Nuoyan's dark canvas.
Since it was a painting, it naturally had to be beautiful and eye-catching, so he asked the goddess Persephone to help embellish it.
Then Pegasus landed again and brought Persephone to Nuoyan's side.
Persephone put away the dark lamp and walked beside Nuoyan with Pegasus, who had folded his wings.
She listened to the sound of the piano and looked at the underworld decorated by herself.
"Great Mother Goddess, I know you have been watching here, and I now understand that the underworld is indeed not as beautiful as the human world."
Persephone looked at the human world in the distance, as if she was looking at the goddess Demeter from a distance at this time, and said: "But I am still willing to accompany this child to the presence of Hades, and I am also willing to stay. Here."
"Because I think that the underworld should also have a beautiful place, so that those children who are suffering in the world can have a happy paradise when they come to the underworld."
Elysee Paradise,
It was the only place in the ancient Greek underworld where flowers bloomed. It was a place that only pure souls could enter, and the future temple of the goddess Persephone, Queen of the Underworld, would be there.
Demeter didn't answer when she heard this, and she couldn't answer now.
At this moment, she could only look complicated, and together with the gods who were watching this moment, she watched Nuo Yan finish the painting.
Promise came to the gate of the underworld.
He smiled and greeted the three-headed hell dog guarding the door, and promised that he would definitely give it lots of honey cookies next time he came over.
He came to the River Styx, the river of pain.
There are a total of five rivers in the underworld. If you pass through them all, you can reach the palace of Hades, and this first river is named Acheron. Charon, the ferry god, has been waiting here for a long time.
