[Greek Mythology] The Confusion of the Goddess of Beauty

The visitor was tall and straight, with dark skin. There was a large scar on the left face that looked like a burn, with pits and hollows, extending from the left to the corner of the right lip. It was so hideous that people couldn't tell the original appearance.

Perhaps in order to cover up the too frightening scar, the other party scattered a head of flamboyant red hair messily behind him, but left a few strands on purpose to cover the left side of his face. Also dilutes a little ferocity.On his back was a weapon that was as tall as his entire body, and because it was entangled in a white cloth, Zhi Geng could only see a rough shape, like a huge sickle, or like a handle. long axe.

Clothes covered in black carbon ash, scars too scary on the face, dust stained on the messy red hair, at this moment, the best adjectives Zhi Geng can think of are dirty and messy.This man looked like a pitiful homeless man with a huge weapon in his hand, so contradictory, yet there was an indescribable fit.

In the backlight, it looks thick and deep, like an insurmountable mountain.

Zhi Geng's undisguised scrutiny seemed to make this man extremely nervous, and the tips of his ears began to heat up and turn red. The moment Zhi Geng raised his eyebrows, his body tensed up, and he felt a little helpless.

"Come closer to me." Zhi Geng's tone was almost commanding, showing a bit of refusal.When he said this, he didn't get up, and still maintained the posture of lying on his side on the chair, propping his head with one hand, staring straight at the other party, and there seemed to be a bit of indifference in his pleasant voice.

Zhi Geng's words made the man's breathing heavy instantly. The man hesitated for a while, and finally, as if he had made a great determination, he clenched the hand hanging by his side, and limped towards Zhi Geng. Walking very slowly, but steady and firm.

"Tell me, who are you?" Zhi Geng straightened up, looked up at the man who had walked up to him, and asked knowingly.

As Zhi Geng raised his head, his perfect and beautiful facial features were completely exposed in front of the man, so alluring and full of impact.Whether it's the fair neck or the delicate collarbone, there is an indescribable temptation everywhere, and the slightly raised chin looks proud and attractive.

The man's throat rolled unconsciously. He was obviously very nervous and cramped, but his answer was dull and rigid.He just spit out a few words dryly: "I am Hephaestus," the hoarse voice was like the sound of cutting a piece of decayed wood with a blade, dry and unpleasant, accompanied by the sound of being burned by fire. Burnt dull.

At the same time, another character box on Zhigeng's sea of ​​consciousness and favorability interface was lit up.

Hephaestus, god of fire

The initial value is 5, the favorability is +15, and the current favorability is 20

The person in front of him basically matched the Vulcan in Greek mythology that he was familiar with, no matter in appearance or temperament.Tall and crippled body, dark and ugly appearance, and... an honest but too innocent temperament.

Zhi Geng looked at the shyness and dodge in Hephaestus' eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.This smile made his already handsome face even more beautiful.Hephaestus stopped breathing for a moment, and his heart started pounding.

Seeing the emotional changes of Hephaestus, Zhi Geng stretched out his hand towards Hephaestus lazily along with the soaring favorability, "Hold me down," as it should be, in a soft tone And ambiguous.

"I..." Hephaestus opened his lips, wanting to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.He couldn't resist such a request.

Steady his trembling hands, Hephaestus slowly approached Zhi Geng with his lower body, but just when his hand was about to touch Zhi Geng's arm and was about to pull him up, Zhi Geng suddenly turned his hand and directly Looking at the current posture of the two of them, they put their hands around Hephaestus' neck, and the whole person stuck to his body.

Hephaestus' body was startled suddenly, and Zhi Geng buried his head on Hephaestus's exposed chest, a little surprised that the smell on the other party's body was not the sweaty smell of perennial iron smelting as imagined, but a particularly pleasant smell , like the smell of a pale tulip that was smoked into ashes by the flames in the charcoal, accompanied by the scorching heat of the fire, strong but not stuffy.

Zhi Geng raised his head to look at Hephaestus, and said softly: "I said, hold me down."

Hephaestus felt hot in his heart, followed Zhi Geng's words uncontrollably, held Zhi Geng's waist with both hands, and hugged him off the chair.

The touch of the palm made him clearly realize that this is a male body, well-proportioned but not weak, thin but full of strength. Hephaestus felt that the hand holding the other's waist at this moment seemed to have become Burn | heat up.

After Zhi Geng stood still, Hephaestusto breathed a sigh of relief.

It was obviously only a moment, but he felt that it was extremely long.

Hephaestus hastily let go of the hand holding the opponent's waist, then removed the hand still around his neck, and quickly stepped back a few steps.When he made these movements, he was quick and nervous, and because of the inconvenient legs and feet, he even staggered a bit before stabilizing his figure.

The corner of Zhi Geng's mouth twitched, "Hiding so fast, I won't eat you again."

"I...I..." Hephaestus hesitated for a long time, but he didn't say anything. After seeing the increasingly obvious smile on Zhi Geng's face, he felt that it was bright and dazzling, and he was a little embarrassed. tilted his head, afraid to look at this most seductive god again.

"Look at me." Zhi Geng walked in front of Hephaestus, stretched out his hands to hold his face, straightened it up a bit forcefully, Zhi Geng's eyes locked on the other's dark and clean eyes, and slowly said: "Then tell me, Hephaestus, what on earth are you here for?"

"Send something! Yes! I'm here to deliver something!" Hephaestus suddenly turned up the volume, as if trying to cover up his embarrassment and uneasiness. His eyes wandered around, but he just didn't look at Zhi Geng.

"What?" Zhi Geng got closer and closer, and when he spoke, all his warm breath sprayed on Hephaestus' face.

"You... can you not get so close to me." Hephaestus took a deep breath, as if he was desperately suppressing something.

"why?"

"It's hard for me to hold things like this." Hephaestus wanted to push Zhi Geng away, but when he touched his body, the strength in his hands unconsciously softened, so he didn't want to push Zhi Geng in the end. .

But at this time, Zhi Geng's hand had already started to move freely on his body, "I'll help you," Zhi Geng said softly, his hand slowly moved down Hephaestus' chest, and he was satisfied to hear the thickened With the sound of breathing, Zhi Geng's hand finally stopped on Hephaestus' lower abdomen, and slightly circled it: "Is it placed here?"

Hephaestus trembled all over, and felt a tingling electric current rushing from his back, joyful and exciting, and even his soul seemed to be trembling along with it.At this moment, no longer caring about strength, Hephaestus pushed Zhi Geng away suddenly, "No... no!" After he finished speaking, he quickly put down the weapon behind his back, and then he was about to wrap around the The white cloth on the top was untied one by one.

Zhi Geng stood aside, looking at Hephaestus with leisure.

It wasn't until Hephaestus completely untied the white cloth that Zhi Geng saw the original appearance of the weapon. It was indeed shaped like a sickle, with gears of various sizes on the blade that looked like needlepoints, and a black knife. There is a light golden totem engraved on the handle, and a thin red chain is tied at the junction of the blade and the handle. The gorgeous red and deep black are intertwined. They are introverted and calm in a low-key manner. , but at a glance, it seems to have a strong and heavy chill.

"What are you going to give me?"

"This bracelet." Hephaestus took off the thin chain, and looked at Zhi Geng expectantly and shyly.

"Red thread?" Zhi Geng chuckled, stretched out his hand and shook it: "Put it on for me."

Suppressing the throbbing in his heart, Hephaestus slightly lowered his eyes, and carefully tied the red bracelet on Zhi Geng's wrist.

The flamboyant red bracelet made the skin on Zhi Geng's wrist even fairer. It was red and scorching hot, like some kind of bondage engraved in the depths of the soul, and also like a pious pursuit of eternal life. Admiration is more like a kind of dark gray that wanders between scarlet and pale... the most joyful and dripping, accompanied by a lingering, oppressive obsession.

At this moment, Zhi Geng actually felt that this bracelet was extremely scorching, as if it was scalding hot after being burned by a raging fire.He looked at Hephaestus thoughtfully, because of the angle of the two of them, from his direction, he couldn't see the expression on Hephaestus' face at this moment, he could only see the other party following his gaze And subconsciously trembling eyelashes.

Zhi Geng found that Hephaestus's eyelashes were very long, especially the lower eyelashes, which were long and thick. When he lowered his eyes like this, the long and narrow shadows cast by the eyelids made him look indifferent for no reason.

Zhi Geng's heart moved, and when he was about to say something, Hephaestus raised his head at this moment, with a smile on his dark face as if his sweetheart had accepted a confession, although this smile set off the scar on his face Even scarier, but not as dull as it looked at first.

"Why did you give me a bracelet?" Zhi Geng asked, but without waiting for Hephaestus to answer, he said again: "Do you mean you like me?" The soft tone revealed a sense of intimacy that seemed to be absent.At the same time as the words fell, Zhi Geng moved and was about to get close to Hephaestus, but Hephaestus hurriedly picked up his weapon, leaving behind a big stride without looking back after saying "I'll go first" go outside.With a limping appearance, there is a feeling of running away.

The moment Hephaestus disappeared completely, all the smiles in Zhi Geng's eyes faded away. He slightly pursed his lips, looking cold and indifferent, as if the one who had been teasing Hephaestus with a smile just now Is another person in general.

Zhi Geng looked at the bracelet on his wrist, a thought flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, Kui Yin's voice sounded in Zhi Geng's sea of ​​consciousness.
