I have a little golden mouth [Greek mythology]
Chapter 84 Facts speak louder than words
"Your Highness Hermes, you have traveled the earth for so long, do you know if you have gained anything?"
With doubts in her heart, the Kitchen Goddess still had a gentle and amiable appearance on the surface.
Because Hestia's tone was so peaceful that no one could feel the slightest bit of malice.
In this regard, Hermes has already sensed that the reason why the other party said these words was just to test himself.
So after thinking about it for a while, Hermes adjusted his mood immediately, and said with a smile: "If you want to talk about harvest, what knowledge on the earth can compare to your profound knowledge, Your Highness."
"It's just some little tricks, not worth mentioning."
As if he didn't see Hermes' meaningful expression, Hestia kept a warm smile on his face.
In fact, it’s no wonder that Hestia was worried. After all, when the Ice Age first came, Demeter didn’t care about the earth because her daughter Persephone was forcibly taken to the nether world by Hades. accident.
At that time, it was Hermes who was responsible for stabilizing the situation.
Although the gods didn't know how Hermes did it, but at that time they saw him raise his hand and wave his divine staff, and the vegetation on the ground, which was originally covered by ice and snow, burst out with unprecedented vitality. .
It is precisely because of such a sudden change that it withstood the devastating blow of the Ice Age to all living beings on the earth, and planted the seeds of hope for subsequent restoration and reconstruction.
At that time, Hestia felt that Hermes probably had a certain life power, otherwise it would be impossible to control the vitality of those plants.
Turning her eyes to the human children running not far away, the benevolent goddess sighed, "It's a pity that although there are many gods helping on the earth, it is still too difficult for the human race to grow up."
As the saying goes, a clever woman can't cook without rice, even though this world has experienced two civilizations before the emergence of the current human race, but now that it has lost its guide, the bronze human race has to grow up slowly from the bottom.
"It is the natural responsibility of the Protoss to be responsible for teaching the living beings. I think Zeus will not turn a blind eye to this aspect, and what His Highness has done to all living beings will be remembered by all living beings."
Suddenly correcting his expression, Hermes opened his mouth to give a series of formulaic answers.
"is it?"
After asking a rhetorical question, Hestia suddenly said: "Because of Persephone, Demeter probably won't be able to return to the earth to perform her priesthood for a long time, and before she comes back, the whole land It is impossible for everything on the earth to remain withered forever, Hermes, remember when the glaciers came, you seemed to lead a wave of life to erupt from the earth, and this blocked the torrent, didn't you?"
Well, Hestia isn't that calculating goddess.
Although she is careful, she doesn't make any conspiracies on some issues.
The previous test of Hermes was already the result of Hestia's hard work.
But this effort has not yielded results, and the Kitchen Goddess also gave up the idea of fighting with him.
Facts have proved that this high-end operation is not suitable for her at all.
With this in mind, Hestia suddenly spoke up.
In fact, this is precisely a method that is not a solution. After all, if someone pretends to be a snake to him, Hermes can still treat him in his own way.
But what else could he say in the face of the Goddess of Vesta who spoke so directly and even brought out the righteousness of heaven and earth?
"As far as I know, after the God of Growth among the gods of Titans, Keris, the source of his divine power and the divine weapon, the golden staff, have been missing since the fall of that year, but until a few years ago, he suddenly changed his identity and appeared in front of all living beings. During this period, the scepter didn't seem to show up."
Glancing at Hermes, seeing that the other party didn't accept the words he handed out, Hestia changed the subject, "But if you have the heart and want to help these suffering people in this respect, I can help you and Zeus, tell me, after all, you also have the priesthood of the God of Animal Husbandry..."
Hearing this, Hermes narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, "It's finally here."
When the other party was testing him, Hermes knew that Hestia would talk about it sooner or later.
That's right, in fact, what I thought was right.
Hermes and Demeter are the few existences that collide with each other in the field of agriculture today. Even if Hermes hadn't created an incarnation with the origin of the god of growth Keris, he himself could have Rely on the law of life to challenge Demeter's attainments and authority in this field.
It was just that Hermes was fledgling at that time, which made him choose to retreat, just let his incarnation appear in front of everyone as the god of vitality, instead of walking this path himself.
But I didn't expect that after working for a long time in vain, I finally made wedding clothes for others.
Little is known about this matter, but it has become a black history of Hermes.
Hestia didn't understand the details, so he said it naturally.
So when she saw Hermes's slightly ugly face, she said strangely: "Are you feeling unwell? Why did you look so ugly all of a sudden?"
"It's nothing."
The memory only lasted for a moment, and Hermes, who came back to his senses, shook his head at Hestia, expressing that he didn't need to care about himself.
In fact, Hermes admired the other party a little now.
As a goddess, Hestia chose to swear to the river of Styx, willing to remain chaste forever, and besides that, she spared no effort to help all beings...
Maybe this goddess also has her own little thoughts in her heart, but generally speaking, Hestia is a goddess worthy of everyone's admiration.
"When I came here before, I saw His Highness teaching humans how to make fire. It seems that His Highness doesn't plan to ask the Temple of Light for help this time?"
Raising his finger to see the human race around the campfire warming in the cave not far away, Hermes' tone was a little subtle.
Drilling wood to make fire, if viewed from the perspective of later generations, is just one of the most primitive methods of making fire.
However, judging from the fact that Prometheus stole the sky fire and brought civilization to mankind, it can be seen that flame has a special meaning in mythology.
Flame can not only play the role of lighting, but also shoulder the functions of repelling enemies, keeping warm, cooking food and so on.
Therefore, with flames, human beings can continue to live in the cold season.
"Hehe, after all, I can't repeat the old path that others have walked in the past. I want to protect human beings because I see many qualities in them that gods don't have."
Opening his hands, Hestia made a gesture of hugging, and at the same time said with a smile: "I remember that Zeus asked Hephaestus to forge a female doll in order to fight against the remaining silver humans, and took her for her." It's called 'Pandora'. Pandora not only symbolizes the original sin of mankind, but also shoulders the important responsibility of multiplying the human race. It may make people feel that this is contradictory? But the truth is..."
Repeating what happened during that period in a low voice, and she didn't know what she thought of, the Vesta's face was a little ugly, so that she didn't notice that Hermes was also in deep thought.
In all fairness, Hestia is a very wise goddess. Even though she is now on good terms with Artemis and others, she did not choose to ask Apollo for a sky fire.
In doing so, on the one hand, they want to draw a clear line with Apollo and the others, and it may not be to avoid the footsteps of Prometheus again.
As for why you are afraid of following in his footsteps?
This is a very simple reason, because it can be seen from the opponent's younger brother, the late-awakened Epimetheus.
After Iapetus, the family was finished.
This incident revealed another meaning at the same time, that is, it is impossible for the gods to control the human race under their own control.
When dealing with human beings, you must maintain the established principles in the dark, otherwise don't make this idea.
Moreover, with the passage of time, the restrictions imposed by laws on gods have gradually increased, and many gods can no longer control everything on the earth as they wish.
If he really said this, with Hestia's face, it would certainly not be a problem to get a fire seed.
However, behind this will lead to a divergence of beliefs. On the one hand, it may also cause a rebound. Hestia is unwilling to have this happen, so he took the initiative to teach the skills of making fire to humans.
This is also a stone-throwing, and those flames are stones thrown by Hestia.
Hestia brought fire and warmth, established a family protection system, Demeter brought harvests to the earth, and taught humans how to farm...
Even Hermes had to praise, these two sisters are really amazing.
"Your Highness Hestia, I think what I should see is about the same, so I won't bother you anymore, just leave it here, and hope to see you next time in Olympos."
Following Hestia around the earth a few times, Hermes felt the civilization gradually developed by several human tribes, and had a certain understanding of its progress.
Now that he has finished inquiring about the news, Hermes naturally has no need to stay here.
What's more, Hestia has made it clear and hinted several times before, although Hermes has used the method of borrowing strength to bypass the topic without a trace, but it can't be said that it is beneficial to continue to stay, on the contrary There is also the possibility of facing losses, of course he is not willing.
Guessing that Thanadus should have almost returned, Hermes also felt that after he returned, he could put the plan that he prepared earlier on the agenda.
After all, Hestia has already begun to use the power of faith to enhance his power, which means that the secrets about faith will be discovered by everyone sooner or later.
Hermes can't prevent this from happening, so the only thing he can do now is to seize the opportunity.
"Are you going now?"
Holding a bunch of ears of wheat in his hand, Hestia didn't hold back when he heard the words, but just gave the handful of ears of wheat to Hermes, "Take it, the gold that bloomed the best on the land before the ice age came." Mai Sui, if you really... believe that these should be able to help you, but I still want to ask Your Highness not to go too far."
"I've always believed in a word, that is, 'Stay a line so we can meet each other', so please go back and tell the Goddess of Wisdom, Your Highness, as long as the spear of the Goddess of Wisdom does not point at our Commercial Temple, we will not go too far."
Facing the golden wheat ears, Hermes struggled for a while, but reached out decisively to take it.
In that handful of ears of wheat, he felt an unusually strong vitality.
Ears of wheat are sacred to Demeter and are also regarded as a symbol of the goddess of agriculture.
Now that these ears of wheat are given to him by Hestia, I don't know if there is any meaning of Demeter in them?
Recalling the goddess who became more and more hysterical after kicking herself out of the temple, the corners of Hermes' mouth twitched.
It's still hard to estimate!
"Athena is a good girl."
For Hermes' words, Hestia did not show anger, but just said so.
"Your Highness is really kind to Goddess of Wisdom, so I don't think Goddess of Wisdom will take your position into consideration."
After echoing this, Hermes bid farewell to Hestia and returned to the heavenly realm.
On the way back, Hermes looked at the handful of ears of wheat, and was also analyzing the possibility of taking the opportunity to seize Demeter's authority.
With the occurrence of the Hades Katyn incident, Demeter will inevitably fall into a period of depression because of Persephone.
If you want to compete with the goddess of agriculture for the "sovereignty of life" on the earth, this is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity, and it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
If you don't do it now, and when Hermes wants to do it again after the opponent has calmed down, not only is the teacher unknown, but he may not be able to compete with the opponent.
Since ancient times, Demeter has been revered as the goddess of agriculture. In addition, this goddess also holds multiple priesthoods such as harvest and abundance.
However, it is not difficult to see from the power held by the other party that Demeter is a god that spans multiple natural fields.
And Demeter's domain is inseparable from Gaia, or in other words, Demeter was able to become the main god only by relying on the mother of the earth.
So it is precisely for this reason that when the human race system gradually took shape in the later period, the divinity of the Goddess of Agriculture and Gaia partially overlapped, which invisibly raised the status of Demeter.
In addition to being the god of commerce, Hermes also has the function of animal husbandry.
To put it bluntly, one of them is in charge of crops, while the other is in charge of animals.
In the domain of the Goddess of Agriculture, even if Hermes had such a gold staff, it would be difficult to compete against her.
However, if he uses his talents and strengths, he might not be able to compete with them.
But the premise is that you must have a golden stick, and then cooperate with the right time and place, otherwise it will be very difficult to succeed.
And if he wanted to do that, the first person he would have to look for was Zeus.
Raising his hand to caress the pure golden scepter, Hermes frowned unconsciously, as if feeling a hint of crisis.
……
Back in Olympus, Hermes first sent a message to Zeus, roughly speaking about his thoughts, and then walked back to the Temple of Commerce silently.
Contrary to his initial expectations, there was no Thanadus in the temple.
But looking at Corus who suddenly appeared, Hermes suddenly laughed after being puzzled at the beginning, "You are back!"
"Don't mention this, just look at what this is!"
As if he didn't notice the sudden change in Hermes' tone, Corus held a crystal bottle in his hand, but now he pointed at the white light spot swaying back and forth in it and rushed: "I just ran out and found it. this--"
"Isn't this the power of faith?"
The four words "power of faith" in Kerris' mouth hadn't been uttered, but the answer to the mystery had already been revealed.
Facing this scene, Kerris' expression was blank for a moment, and then he looked at Hermes with some resentment, "So you already know."
"Otherwise, do you think that when I went to the land, I really saw all the lakes and mountains?"
Putting the crystal bottle on the table aside, Hermes didn't bother with him too much on this issue, but just expressed his thoughts to Kerris.
"You want to seize Demeter's power? Vitality, life?"
Frowning and speaking a few words slowly, Kerris saw that Hermes did not refute, so he tentatively said: "Don't tell me that you still want to..."
"No way, if Thanadus wants to join, he can only join as the god of death, and apart from this law, I can't think of anything else that can complement him."
Shaking his head, Hermes looked very irritable.
This is something that can't be helped, although it's uncomfortable, you still have to think about it.
After all, looking at the entire Olympus, in addition to other colleagues, even if it is the high god king Zeus and the queen Hera, isn't it necessary to bind and form a team together?
The twelve main gods symbolize the highest combat power of Olympos, but at the same time they also represent the representatives and manifestations of the major gods at the top.
So at this level, it is very difficult to rely on one person to gain a foothold in it, even if there are two primitive gods behind it.
Nix and Erebus are powerful, but no matter how strong they are, it is impossible for them to reach out to Olympos to protect their son.
If it is really so casual, Gaia has reason to interfere.
To sum up, in the end, Thanadus and Hermes can only rely on each other and themselves.
"The way of heaven is to make up for what is lacking while damaging what is in excess."
Hearing Hermes' words, Corus's face was cloudy for a while, and then he gave up on himself and said: "Swallowing, converting... If you can use this part of the power, plus Thanadus, in fact, you Demeter can be emptied."
But the premise is that Zeus has not stopped in this regard, and Hermes can also withstand the pressure of other goddesses.
I silently added in my heart that Kerris didn't finish his sentence completely.
The reason why there is room is to allow Hermes to figure out the pros and cons of it slowly.
The Goddess of Agriculture is considered the incarnation of nature, simply because she has the power to restore all things to life. This power belongs to the law of life inherited from the mother of the earth, and it is very delicate in itself.
And if it weren't for Gaia's help, Demeter might not be able to get to this point with his own potential.
So attacking Demeter means provoking Gaia. If Hermes wants to do this, he must pay a big price...
Just thinking of this made Kerris frowned.
"If it's because of me, don't worry too much, because I know that this road is not easy to walk, so this time I have reached a consensus with His Majesty."
Just before Hermes replied, the door was suddenly pushed open.
With a burst of strong light coming in, Thanadus, who had been eavesdropping outside for an unknown amount of time, walked in, and said to the two of them: "Your Majesty said that this time, Nether will do its best to support me, and at the same time let us Just let go and do it."
This is a promise made by Hades, but also a guarantee.
Compared with Hermes who was previously united with Aphrodite and others, the relationship between Hades and Thanadus is not to mention.
Even Hermes had to rely on the protection of this uncle and Zeus to gain a firm foothold among the gods and not be underestimated by others.
"Okay, then there's nothing to worry about."
Upon hearing this, Corus blushed with excitement, and it was too late to attack the other party to listen to the corner. At this moment, he clapped his hands and said to Hermes: "Since Hades is the backstage supporter, Then you just need to get Zeus done, I think this matter will be done, not to mention that it is an extraordinary period, we just need to seize the opportunity to complete the arrangement before Demeter returns to normal, then you can completely complete the work from your animal husbandry priesthood. Let's do it!"
Indeed, Hermes' attainments in the laws of nature are not advanced today.
If you want to compete with Demeter once, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.
But Hermes also has another hole card that no one else knows about—the Devouring Godhead sublimated from stealing!
As long as this part of the power is activated, it will be a matter of minutes to seize the opponent's origin!
"There is also the power of faith, which can indeed give us a boost."
Seeing that the two of them rarely work together, Hermes let go of the calculations in his heart, and then said: "In that case, then I will go and talk to Zeus later."
"Hermes, open the door for me!"
But he never thought that as soon as he finished speaking, Zeus's voice sounded outside the temple.
Unlike Thanadus who was hiding in the hall and eavesdropping, Zeus was really outside, and it seemed that he came here specifically to find him.
"It's over, it's here."
Because I had just sent a text message with the other party before, and in that, Hermes just briefly mentioned his thoughts.
He didn't say much about the details. On the one hand, he was worried that Zeus would be furious.
But now Zeus is furious, Hermes does not know.
But he can be sure that the other party's approach this time is definitely related to this matter.
……
"Your majesty the great god king, you specially called me here, is there something important?"
Thunder Temple, looking at the majestic man sitting on the throne, Hermes bowed slightly to him, and asked a very humble question in an exaggerated tone like a contrived aria.
You must know that Hermes will behave like this because they have reached a certain consensus before, so doing it now can be regarded as a full complement of Zeus's tricks.
After all, at this moment, there is not only Zeus alone in the Temple of Thunder, but also his grandmother and the mother of the other party—Her Highness Rhea, the Goddess of Time.
"This time I came here for no other reason, but because, regarding the position of the main god, I think it's time to make a decision."
It may be because of the presence of the mother god that Zeus is different from before.
This time, it was rare for His Majesty the God King to be very serious in front of Hermes.
"I see."
Seeing the other party speak in a serious manner, Hermes always felt that it was very subtle, but he still cooperated and said: "I don't know if His Majesty summoned me to come..."
According to what was said earlier, after listening to the pros and cons of Hermes' analysis, Zeus struggled with his son and sister, and finally the balance in his heart still fell infinitely towards Hermes.
After all, Hermes produced a lot of evidence, saying that if he was allowed to go up, it would be more beneficial to Demeter.
Zeus is a very realistic male god, so after listening to the analysis, he pushed aside the next plan without saying a word.
Get your own mother god over, and perform a "brotherly love" by the way, while testing Rhea's attitude. If possible, it's best to tie the goddess of time to their chariot.
"Okay, don't pretend to me any more."
Watching the father and son's performance from the sidelines, the Great Mother, who was called over temporarily, expressed a look of bewilderment.
So what the hell is going on here?
The son suddenly rebelled, and the grandson didn't seem to be a well-behaved one. These two people were acting in front of him, maybe they thought they were fools?
To be reasonable, His Highness the Goddess of Time really felt a little tired watching this live version.
In addition, Rhea was really amused.
"As I said before, I have promised you that I will help you in the next council, but compared to my attitude and the views of the gods, don't you think there is one more thing that needs to be resolved?"
After clapping their hands, interrupting them, and successfully attracting the attention of Hermes and Zeus again, Rhea saw that the two were puzzled, and couldn't help sighing, "Hey, that's About the exclusivity of your laws."
Although there are only Zeus and his son in the store, they all understand that the "you" and "you" mentioned by the Goddess of Time naturally refer to Thanadus.
"Your Highness is talking about me and Thanadus?"
When Rhea said this, Hermes narrowed his eyes and restrained himself instantly.
To be reasonable, the question raised by the other party is exactly what he has been struggling with before, so Hermes' tone unconsciously showed a little hesitation.
Just because of a little hesitation, Rhea thought that Hermes hadn't thought about this matter at all.
So the Goddess of Time sighed, and cast a helpless look at Zeus, as if to say: "Look, this is your beloved son, who knows how to love, and now he is so spoiled that he can't do anything. Let's go!"
"Cough cough cough... I believe Hermes should already have an idea?"
After receiving the complaint from his own mother god, Zeus felt that his old face was a bit unbearable, so he gave Hermes a sharp look.
Pretentious little guy, obviously it wasn't like this script before, okay!
"Danadus told me about this when he came back."
Because he had reached a consensus with Thanadus on this matter before, even if he was asked suddenly, Hermes would not rush.
Ignoring Zeus, Tan just said to himself: "Hades means to let Thanadus join Olympus on behalf of Nether. As for the identity, I don't need to bind, but I have an idea."
Under the slightly surprised gaze of Goddess Rhea, Hermes said: "In fact, most of our main god system in Olympus can form a cycle, from natural celestial phenomena to human evolution, which itself is a large series that can be combined. , so in this case, if I appear as the God of Vitality, on the one hand, I can fit in with Thanadus, and at the same time, I can avoid the embarrassment of Her Highness the Goddess of Agriculture being unable to perform her duties due to excessive miss. "
Finally said it out!
After saying those words, Hermes let out a sigh of relief and glanced at Zeus.
After hearing these words, His Majesty the God King felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he nodded slightly, as if to say: "It's okay, but keep working hard."
"So you want to usurp Demeter's authority?"
Compared with the cordial interaction on their side, Rhea's mood at this time is not beautiful.
Frowning, the tone of the Great Mother suddenly became serious.
Listening to what Hermes said, which could be said to be unceremonious, Rhea, who is the mother of the Olympus generation of gods, immediately felt something was wrong.
What kind of big combination are you talking about?
Want to become the God of Vitality?
Is this for Thanadus?
It sounds so good, but in the end, isn't it to seize the authority of Hestia and Demeter? !
According to what Zeus said before, Hestia abdicated because of the result of the game of the gods.
If the strength of the goddess camp is too biased, it will also affect the rule of Zeus, not to mention that Hestia itself is facing Athena.
So on this matter, Rhea chose to turn a blind eye and close her eyes, just pretending that she didn't see her daughter being wronged.
Zeus to Zeus, that's her son!
Hermes now also wants to imitate the king of the gods, so it has to see if there is such an opportunity and ability.
"I know that my words are likely to cause misunderstandings, but I still hope that His Royal Highness Rhea can listen to me."
As if he didn't feel the powerful pressure that came to his face, Hermes still maintained a decent smile on his face, and even his tone didn't change at all, "Actually, you don't have to look at it that way, after all, I'm not worried that I will usurp The authority of Her Majesty Demeter——If Her Majesty Rhea can persuade the Goddess of Agriculture to come forward to preside over the overall situation, then I don’t think my plan will be needed.”
Threats, this is simply a direct threat.
Facing the aloof mother of the gods, Hermes did not choose to give in this time, but put on a particularly full posture.
Yes, after all, regardless of personal feelings, there is no enmity, no resentment, we just proceed from the perspective of the righteousness of the world.
If Her Majesty the Goddess of Time has a way to solve Demeter's small emotional problems, Hermes said that she can retreat in minutes.
But the question is who can do this?
"Are you threatening me?"
The tone sank several times in an instant, and Rhea suddenly laughed: "Hehehe, after all these years, you are also the first one who dares to speak to me like that besides that guy."
Hearing this tone, Zeus on the side only felt a chill behind him, and at the same time cast a worried look at Hermes.
Although the specific structure has not changed, he seems to have overestimated the psychological endurance of his mother god!
"Your Highness is absurd, I am ashamed."
Zeus is panicking now, but Hermes is more stable than this father god.
To be reasonable, Hermes is not afraid of Rhea.
This time Danatus was able to become the main god not because of the other party, even though Zeus’ idea at the beginning was to invite his own mother god to suppress those who had other ideas—such as Demeter, Hestia, etc. ya.
But even so, it can't change the fact that the Goddess of Time is a past tense after all.
The reason why Rhea still has such a noble status today is not so much because of her identity and strength, but because Zeus respects the mother goddess.
If not, without the support of His Majesty the God King, how would Goddess of Time intervene in the affairs of Olympos?
For the sake of looking at Zeus before, Hermes also showed his attitude.
It's a pity that Hermes had already made up his mind to attack Demeter when they came over.
The other party is the second daughter of the Goddess of Time, so doing so will inevitably touch Rhea's back scales.
But just because he was afraid of offending the Goddess of Time, would Hermes choose to give up?
No, can't give up.
In order to repay Zeus' efforts this time, and also for himself, Hermes will not choose to show mercy this time.
"I want to obtain the power of nature. Since Her Majesty the Goddess of Agriculture does not have enough strength to maintain the weight of the law, I will naturally accept this vacancy."
Standing up from the throne, Hermes took a step forward, his tone full of inexplicable meaning, "After all, some positions have always been 'occupied by the capable'. This can be regarded as the rule set since ancient times. Your Highness should not Will you object?"
"Who are you talking to?"
Rhea blushed suddenly for Hermes' unceremonious words, "It's really, it's too presumptuous!"
It may be because the heart was so shocked that Goddess of Time stuttered all of a sudden.
But this is not surprising. Rhea has been enjoying honor since Zeus came to power, but whoever is not polite to this Great Mother God among all the gods?
So the Goddess of Time, who was used to being praised, suddenly encountered Hermes' opposite behavior, and immediately felt the gap in it, and her whole expression became very ugly.
"Mother God, please don't get excited."
Contrary to Rhea's expectation, it was obvious that he had shown such an angry side, but this time, the son of Zeus did not vent his anger on himself for the first time.
Not to mention venting his anger, Zeus didn't even say a serious word when facing Hermes!
Seeing this scene, Rhea only felt sad, and at the same time felt a little cold in her heart.
Isn't this the son she has spoiled for so long?
"Your Highness wants to be a loving mother. I don't deny that this is a very good idea, but everything has to be viewed in light of reality."
Look at Rhea who was hit hard, feel Zeus' gaze, Hermes returned a look of "be safe and don't be impatient", put his hands behind his back, pretended to be a senior educator, and started talking nonsense, "Your Highness also knows that the matter between His Majesty Hades and Persephone is doomed by fate, so don't say it is us, even my father god, the great king of the gods of Olympus, is powerless to interfere ,Change."
The tone suddenly became serious, Hermes and Zeus looked at each other, and then they started to have a debate with Rhea.
……
At the same time, just as Hermes and the others turned their attention to the Tomb of the Gods, the seemingly stable interior of Olympos was also not peaceful.
"You should have heard of it, right?"
In the Temple of Love, the Goddess of Love dressed in brocade clothes looked at her silent husband, and her tone suddenly became a little anxious, "Athena and the others have already made a move, I really don't understand, it's already this time, What are you still struggling with?"
That's right, while Athena secretly went to the earth to make various arrangements, Aphrodite's eyes also followed closely behind her.
So whenever there is a change on Athena's side, Cupid will know it immediately.
"Then what do you want me to do?"
Facing the very tough Eros, Hephaestus was silent for a while, his tone a little helpless, "You also know that my great aunt still holds most of the power of fire, and the human race does not need me now, but As for you..."
After a pause, Vulcan shook his head, apparently feeling that his wife was equally unreliable.
But this is also the truth, if you really want to fight for faith, unless you have
With doubts in her heart, the Kitchen Goddess still had a gentle and amiable appearance on the surface.
Because Hestia's tone was so peaceful that no one could feel the slightest bit of malice.
In this regard, Hermes has already sensed that the reason why the other party said these words was just to test himself.
So after thinking about it for a while, Hermes adjusted his mood immediately, and said with a smile: "If you want to talk about harvest, what knowledge on the earth can compare to your profound knowledge, Your Highness."
"It's just some little tricks, not worth mentioning."
As if he didn't see Hermes' meaningful expression, Hestia kept a warm smile on his face.
In fact, it’s no wonder that Hestia was worried. After all, when the Ice Age first came, Demeter didn’t care about the earth because her daughter Persephone was forcibly taken to the nether world by Hades. accident.
At that time, it was Hermes who was responsible for stabilizing the situation.
Although the gods didn't know how Hermes did it, but at that time they saw him raise his hand and wave his divine staff, and the vegetation on the ground, which was originally covered by ice and snow, burst out with unprecedented vitality. .
It is precisely because of such a sudden change that it withstood the devastating blow of the Ice Age to all living beings on the earth, and planted the seeds of hope for subsequent restoration and reconstruction.
At that time, Hestia felt that Hermes probably had a certain life power, otherwise it would be impossible to control the vitality of those plants.
Turning her eyes to the human children running not far away, the benevolent goddess sighed, "It's a pity that although there are many gods helping on the earth, it is still too difficult for the human race to grow up."
As the saying goes, a clever woman can't cook without rice, even though this world has experienced two civilizations before the emergence of the current human race, but now that it has lost its guide, the bronze human race has to grow up slowly from the bottom.
"It is the natural responsibility of the Protoss to be responsible for teaching the living beings. I think Zeus will not turn a blind eye to this aspect, and what His Highness has done to all living beings will be remembered by all living beings."
Suddenly correcting his expression, Hermes opened his mouth to give a series of formulaic answers.
"is it?"
After asking a rhetorical question, Hestia suddenly said: "Because of Persephone, Demeter probably won't be able to return to the earth to perform her priesthood for a long time, and before she comes back, the whole land It is impossible for everything on the earth to remain withered forever, Hermes, remember when the glaciers came, you seemed to lead a wave of life to erupt from the earth, and this blocked the torrent, didn't you?"
Well, Hestia isn't that calculating goddess.
Although she is careful, she doesn't make any conspiracies on some issues.
The previous test of Hermes was already the result of Hestia's hard work.
But this effort has not yielded results, and the Kitchen Goddess also gave up the idea of fighting with him.
Facts have proved that this high-end operation is not suitable for her at all.
With this in mind, Hestia suddenly spoke up.
In fact, this is precisely a method that is not a solution. After all, if someone pretends to be a snake to him, Hermes can still treat him in his own way.
But what else could he say in the face of the Goddess of Vesta who spoke so directly and even brought out the righteousness of heaven and earth?
"As far as I know, after the God of Growth among the gods of Titans, Keris, the source of his divine power and the divine weapon, the golden staff, have been missing since the fall of that year, but until a few years ago, he suddenly changed his identity and appeared in front of all living beings. During this period, the scepter didn't seem to show up."
Glancing at Hermes, seeing that the other party didn't accept the words he handed out, Hestia changed the subject, "But if you have the heart and want to help these suffering people in this respect, I can help you and Zeus, tell me, after all, you also have the priesthood of the God of Animal Husbandry..."
Hearing this, Hermes narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, "It's finally here."
When the other party was testing him, Hermes knew that Hestia would talk about it sooner or later.
That's right, in fact, what I thought was right.
Hermes and Demeter are the few existences that collide with each other in the field of agriculture today. Even if Hermes hadn't created an incarnation with the origin of the god of growth Keris, he himself could have Rely on the law of life to challenge Demeter's attainments and authority in this field.
It was just that Hermes was fledgling at that time, which made him choose to retreat, just let his incarnation appear in front of everyone as the god of vitality, instead of walking this path himself.
But I didn't expect that after working for a long time in vain, I finally made wedding clothes for others.
Little is known about this matter, but it has become a black history of Hermes.
Hestia didn't understand the details, so he said it naturally.
So when she saw Hermes's slightly ugly face, she said strangely: "Are you feeling unwell? Why did you look so ugly all of a sudden?"
"It's nothing."
The memory only lasted for a moment, and Hermes, who came back to his senses, shook his head at Hestia, expressing that he didn't need to care about himself.
In fact, Hermes admired the other party a little now.
As a goddess, Hestia chose to swear to the river of Styx, willing to remain chaste forever, and besides that, she spared no effort to help all beings...
Maybe this goddess also has her own little thoughts in her heart, but generally speaking, Hestia is a goddess worthy of everyone's admiration.
"When I came here before, I saw His Highness teaching humans how to make fire. It seems that His Highness doesn't plan to ask the Temple of Light for help this time?"
Raising his finger to see the human race around the campfire warming in the cave not far away, Hermes' tone was a little subtle.
Drilling wood to make fire, if viewed from the perspective of later generations, is just one of the most primitive methods of making fire.
However, judging from the fact that Prometheus stole the sky fire and brought civilization to mankind, it can be seen that flame has a special meaning in mythology.
Flame can not only play the role of lighting, but also shoulder the functions of repelling enemies, keeping warm, cooking food and so on.
Therefore, with flames, human beings can continue to live in the cold season.
"Hehe, after all, I can't repeat the old path that others have walked in the past. I want to protect human beings because I see many qualities in them that gods don't have."
Opening his hands, Hestia made a gesture of hugging, and at the same time said with a smile: "I remember that Zeus asked Hephaestus to forge a female doll in order to fight against the remaining silver humans, and took her for her." It's called 'Pandora'. Pandora not only symbolizes the original sin of mankind, but also shoulders the important responsibility of multiplying the human race. It may make people feel that this is contradictory? But the truth is..."
Repeating what happened during that period in a low voice, and she didn't know what she thought of, the Vesta's face was a little ugly, so that she didn't notice that Hermes was also in deep thought.
In all fairness, Hestia is a very wise goddess. Even though she is now on good terms with Artemis and others, she did not choose to ask Apollo for a sky fire.
In doing so, on the one hand, they want to draw a clear line with Apollo and the others, and it may not be to avoid the footsteps of Prometheus again.
As for why you are afraid of following in his footsteps?
This is a very simple reason, because it can be seen from the opponent's younger brother, the late-awakened Epimetheus.
After Iapetus, the family was finished.
This incident revealed another meaning at the same time, that is, it is impossible for the gods to control the human race under their own control.
When dealing with human beings, you must maintain the established principles in the dark, otherwise don't make this idea.
Moreover, with the passage of time, the restrictions imposed by laws on gods have gradually increased, and many gods can no longer control everything on the earth as they wish.
If he really said this, with Hestia's face, it would certainly not be a problem to get a fire seed.
However, behind this will lead to a divergence of beliefs. On the one hand, it may also cause a rebound. Hestia is unwilling to have this happen, so he took the initiative to teach the skills of making fire to humans.
This is also a stone-throwing, and those flames are stones thrown by Hestia.
Hestia brought fire and warmth, established a family protection system, Demeter brought harvests to the earth, and taught humans how to farm...
Even Hermes had to praise, these two sisters are really amazing.
"Your Highness Hestia, I think what I should see is about the same, so I won't bother you anymore, just leave it here, and hope to see you next time in Olympos."
Following Hestia around the earth a few times, Hermes felt the civilization gradually developed by several human tribes, and had a certain understanding of its progress.
Now that he has finished inquiring about the news, Hermes naturally has no need to stay here.
What's more, Hestia has made it clear and hinted several times before, although Hermes has used the method of borrowing strength to bypass the topic without a trace, but it can't be said that it is beneficial to continue to stay, on the contrary There is also the possibility of facing losses, of course he is not willing.
Guessing that Thanadus should have almost returned, Hermes also felt that after he returned, he could put the plan that he prepared earlier on the agenda.
After all, Hestia has already begun to use the power of faith to enhance his power, which means that the secrets about faith will be discovered by everyone sooner or later.
Hermes can't prevent this from happening, so the only thing he can do now is to seize the opportunity.
"Are you going now?"
Holding a bunch of ears of wheat in his hand, Hestia didn't hold back when he heard the words, but just gave the handful of ears of wheat to Hermes, "Take it, the gold that bloomed the best on the land before the ice age came." Mai Sui, if you really... believe that these should be able to help you, but I still want to ask Your Highness not to go too far."
"I've always believed in a word, that is, 'Stay a line so we can meet each other', so please go back and tell the Goddess of Wisdom, Your Highness, as long as the spear of the Goddess of Wisdom does not point at our Commercial Temple, we will not go too far."
Facing the golden wheat ears, Hermes struggled for a while, but reached out decisively to take it.
In that handful of ears of wheat, he felt an unusually strong vitality.
Ears of wheat are sacred to Demeter and are also regarded as a symbol of the goddess of agriculture.
Now that these ears of wheat are given to him by Hestia, I don't know if there is any meaning of Demeter in them?
Recalling the goddess who became more and more hysterical after kicking herself out of the temple, the corners of Hermes' mouth twitched.
It's still hard to estimate!
"Athena is a good girl."
For Hermes' words, Hestia did not show anger, but just said so.
"Your Highness is really kind to Goddess of Wisdom, so I don't think Goddess of Wisdom will take your position into consideration."
After echoing this, Hermes bid farewell to Hestia and returned to the heavenly realm.
On the way back, Hermes looked at the handful of ears of wheat, and was also analyzing the possibility of taking the opportunity to seize Demeter's authority.
With the occurrence of the Hades Katyn incident, Demeter will inevitably fall into a period of depression because of Persephone.
If you want to compete with the goddess of agriculture for the "sovereignty of life" on the earth, this is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity, and it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
If you don't do it now, and when Hermes wants to do it again after the opponent has calmed down, not only is the teacher unknown, but he may not be able to compete with the opponent.
Since ancient times, Demeter has been revered as the goddess of agriculture. In addition, this goddess also holds multiple priesthoods such as harvest and abundance.
However, it is not difficult to see from the power held by the other party that Demeter is a god that spans multiple natural fields.
And Demeter's domain is inseparable from Gaia, or in other words, Demeter was able to become the main god only by relying on the mother of the earth.
So it is precisely for this reason that when the human race system gradually took shape in the later period, the divinity of the Goddess of Agriculture and Gaia partially overlapped, which invisibly raised the status of Demeter.
In addition to being the god of commerce, Hermes also has the function of animal husbandry.
To put it bluntly, one of them is in charge of crops, while the other is in charge of animals.
In the domain of the Goddess of Agriculture, even if Hermes had such a gold staff, it would be difficult to compete against her.
However, if he uses his talents and strengths, he might not be able to compete with them.
But the premise is that you must have a golden stick, and then cooperate with the right time and place, otherwise it will be very difficult to succeed.
And if he wanted to do that, the first person he would have to look for was Zeus.
Raising his hand to caress the pure golden scepter, Hermes frowned unconsciously, as if feeling a hint of crisis.
……
Back in Olympus, Hermes first sent a message to Zeus, roughly speaking about his thoughts, and then walked back to the Temple of Commerce silently.
Contrary to his initial expectations, there was no Thanadus in the temple.
But looking at Corus who suddenly appeared, Hermes suddenly laughed after being puzzled at the beginning, "You are back!"
"Don't mention this, just look at what this is!"
As if he didn't notice the sudden change in Hermes' tone, Corus held a crystal bottle in his hand, but now he pointed at the white light spot swaying back and forth in it and rushed: "I just ran out and found it. this--"
"Isn't this the power of faith?"
The four words "power of faith" in Kerris' mouth hadn't been uttered, but the answer to the mystery had already been revealed.
Facing this scene, Kerris' expression was blank for a moment, and then he looked at Hermes with some resentment, "So you already know."
"Otherwise, do you think that when I went to the land, I really saw all the lakes and mountains?"
Putting the crystal bottle on the table aside, Hermes didn't bother with him too much on this issue, but just expressed his thoughts to Kerris.
"You want to seize Demeter's power? Vitality, life?"
Frowning and speaking a few words slowly, Kerris saw that Hermes did not refute, so he tentatively said: "Don't tell me that you still want to..."
"No way, if Thanadus wants to join, he can only join as the god of death, and apart from this law, I can't think of anything else that can complement him."
Shaking his head, Hermes looked very irritable.
This is something that can't be helped, although it's uncomfortable, you still have to think about it.
After all, looking at the entire Olympus, in addition to other colleagues, even if it is the high god king Zeus and the queen Hera, isn't it necessary to bind and form a team together?
The twelve main gods symbolize the highest combat power of Olympos, but at the same time they also represent the representatives and manifestations of the major gods at the top.
So at this level, it is very difficult to rely on one person to gain a foothold in it, even if there are two primitive gods behind it.
Nix and Erebus are powerful, but no matter how strong they are, it is impossible for them to reach out to Olympos to protect their son.
If it is really so casual, Gaia has reason to interfere.
To sum up, in the end, Thanadus and Hermes can only rely on each other and themselves.
"The way of heaven is to make up for what is lacking while damaging what is in excess."
Hearing Hermes' words, Corus's face was cloudy for a while, and then he gave up on himself and said: "Swallowing, converting... If you can use this part of the power, plus Thanadus, in fact, you Demeter can be emptied."
But the premise is that Zeus has not stopped in this regard, and Hermes can also withstand the pressure of other goddesses.
I silently added in my heart that Kerris didn't finish his sentence completely.
The reason why there is room is to allow Hermes to figure out the pros and cons of it slowly.
The Goddess of Agriculture is considered the incarnation of nature, simply because she has the power to restore all things to life. This power belongs to the law of life inherited from the mother of the earth, and it is very delicate in itself.
And if it weren't for Gaia's help, Demeter might not be able to get to this point with his own potential.
So attacking Demeter means provoking Gaia. If Hermes wants to do this, he must pay a big price...
Just thinking of this made Kerris frowned.
"If it's because of me, don't worry too much, because I know that this road is not easy to walk, so this time I have reached a consensus with His Majesty."
Just before Hermes replied, the door was suddenly pushed open.
With a burst of strong light coming in, Thanadus, who had been eavesdropping outside for an unknown amount of time, walked in, and said to the two of them: "Your Majesty said that this time, Nether will do its best to support me, and at the same time let us Just let go and do it."
This is a promise made by Hades, but also a guarantee.
Compared with Hermes who was previously united with Aphrodite and others, the relationship between Hades and Thanadus is not to mention.
Even Hermes had to rely on the protection of this uncle and Zeus to gain a firm foothold among the gods and not be underestimated by others.
"Okay, then there's nothing to worry about."
Upon hearing this, Corus blushed with excitement, and it was too late to attack the other party to listen to the corner. At this moment, he clapped his hands and said to Hermes: "Since Hades is the backstage supporter, Then you just need to get Zeus done, I think this matter will be done, not to mention that it is an extraordinary period, we just need to seize the opportunity to complete the arrangement before Demeter returns to normal, then you can completely complete the work from your animal husbandry priesthood. Let's do it!"
Indeed, Hermes' attainments in the laws of nature are not advanced today.
If you want to compete with Demeter once, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.
But Hermes also has another hole card that no one else knows about—the Devouring Godhead sublimated from stealing!
As long as this part of the power is activated, it will be a matter of minutes to seize the opponent's origin!
"There is also the power of faith, which can indeed give us a boost."
Seeing that the two of them rarely work together, Hermes let go of the calculations in his heart, and then said: "In that case, then I will go and talk to Zeus later."
"Hermes, open the door for me!"
But he never thought that as soon as he finished speaking, Zeus's voice sounded outside the temple.
Unlike Thanadus who was hiding in the hall and eavesdropping, Zeus was really outside, and it seemed that he came here specifically to find him.
"It's over, it's here."
Because I had just sent a text message with the other party before, and in that, Hermes just briefly mentioned his thoughts.
He didn't say much about the details. On the one hand, he was worried that Zeus would be furious.
But now Zeus is furious, Hermes does not know.
But he can be sure that the other party's approach this time is definitely related to this matter.
……
"Your majesty the great god king, you specially called me here, is there something important?"
Thunder Temple, looking at the majestic man sitting on the throne, Hermes bowed slightly to him, and asked a very humble question in an exaggerated tone like a contrived aria.
You must know that Hermes will behave like this because they have reached a certain consensus before, so doing it now can be regarded as a full complement of Zeus's tricks.
After all, at this moment, there is not only Zeus alone in the Temple of Thunder, but also his grandmother and the mother of the other party—Her Highness Rhea, the Goddess of Time.
"This time I came here for no other reason, but because, regarding the position of the main god, I think it's time to make a decision."
It may be because of the presence of the mother god that Zeus is different from before.
This time, it was rare for His Majesty the God King to be very serious in front of Hermes.
"I see."
Seeing the other party speak in a serious manner, Hermes always felt that it was very subtle, but he still cooperated and said: "I don't know if His Majesty summoned me to come..."
According to what was said earlier, after listening to the pros and cons of Hermes' analysis, Zeus struggled with his son and sister, and finally the balance in his heart still fell infinitely towards Hermes.
After all, Hermes produced a lot of evidence, saying that if he was allowed to go up, it would be more beneficial to Demeter.
Zeus is a very realistic male god, so after listening to the analysis, he pushed aside the next plan without saying a word.
Get your own mother god over, and perform a "brotherly love" by the way, while testing Rhea's attitude. If possible, it's best to tie the goddess of time to their chariot.
"Okay, don't pretend to me any more."
Watching the father and son's performance from the sidelines, the Great Mother, who was called over temporarily, expressed a look of bewilderment.
So what the hell is going on here?
The son suddenly rebelled, and the grandson didn't seem to be a well-behaved one. These two people were acting in front of him, maybe they thought they were fools?
To be reasonable, His Highness the Goddess of Time really felt a little tired watching this live version.
In addition, Rhea was really amused.
"As I said before, I have promised you that I will help you in the next council, but compared to my attitude and the views of the gods, don't you think there is one more thing that needs to be resolved?"
After clapping their hands, interrupting them, and successfully attracting the attention of Hermes and Zeus again, Rhea saw that the two were puzzled, and couldn't help sighing, "Hey, that's About the exclusivity of your laws."
Although there are only Zeus and his son in the store, they all understand that the "you" and "you" mentioned by the Goddess of Time naturally refer to Thanadus.
"Your Highness is talking about me and Thanadus?"
When Rhea said this, Hermes narrowed his eyes and restrained himself instantly.
To be reasonable, the question raised by the other party is exactly what he has been struggling with before, so Hermes' tone unconsciously showed a little hesitation.
Just because of a little hesitation, Rhea thought that Hermes hadn't thought about this matter at all.
So the Goddess of Time sighed, and cast a helpless look at Zeus, as if to say: "Look, this is your beloved son, who knows how to love, and now he is so spoiled that he can't do anything. Let's go!"
"Cough cough cough... I believe Hermes should already have an idea?"
After receiving the complaint from his own mother god, Zeus felt that his old face was a bit unbearable, so he gave Hermes a sharp look.
Pretentious little guy, obviously it wasn't like this script before, okay!
"Danadus told me about this when he came back."
Because he had reached a consensus with Thanadus on this matter before, even if he was asked suddenly, Hermes would not rush.
Ignoring Zeus, Tan just said to himself: "Hades means to let Thanadus join Olympus on behalf of Nether. As for the identity, I don't need to bind, but I have an idea."
Under the slightly surprised gaze of Goddess Rhea, Hermes said: "In fact, most of our main god system in Olympus can form a cycle, from natural celestial phenomena to human evolution, which itself is a large series that can be combined. , so in this case, if I appear as the God of Vitality, on the one hand, I can fit in with Thanadus, and at the same time, I can avoid the embarrassment of Her Highness the Goddess of Agriculture being unable to perform her duties due to excessive miss. "
Finally said it out!
After saying those words, Hermes let out a sigh of relief and glanced at Zeus.
After hearing these words, His Majesty the God King felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he nodded slightly, as if to say: "It's okay, but keep working hard."
"So you want to usurp Demeter's authority?"
Compared with the cordial interaction on their side, Rhea's mood at this time is not beautiful.
Frowning, the tone of the Great Mother suddenly became serious.
Listening to what Hermes said, which could be said to be unceremonious, Rhea, who is the mother of the Olympus generation of gods, immediately felt something was wrong.
What kind of big combination are you talking about?
Want to become the God of Vitality?
Is this for Thanadus?
It sounds so good, but in the end, isn't it to seize the authority of Hestia and Demeter? !
According to what Zeus said before, Hestia abdicated because of the result of the game of the gods.
If the strength of the goddess camp is too biased, it will also affect the rule of Zeus, not to mention that Hestia itself is facing Athena.
So on this matter, Rhea chose to turn a blind eye and close her eyes, just pretending that she didn't see her daughter being wronged.
Zeus to Zeus, that's her son!
Hermes now also wants to imitate the king of the gods, so it has to see if there is such an opportunity and ability.
"I know that my words are likely to cause misunderstandings, but I still hope that His Royal Highness Rhea can listen to me."
As if he didn't feel the powerful pressure that came to his face, Hermes still maintained a decent smile on his face, and even his tone didn't change at all, "Actually, you don't have to look at it that way, after all, I'm not worried that I will usurp The authority of Her Majesty Demeter——If Her Majesty Rhea can persuade the Goddess of Agriculture to come forward to preside over the overall situation, then I don’t think my plan will be needed.”
Threats, this is simply a direct threat.
Facing the aloof mother of the gods, Hermes did not choose to give in this time, but put on a particularly full posture.
Yes, after all, regardless of personal feelings, there is no enmity, no resentment, we just proceed from the perspective of the righteousness of the world.
If Her Majesty the Goddess of Time has a way to solve Demeter's small emotional problems, Hermes said that she can retreat in minutes.
But the question is who can do this?
"Are you threatening me?"
The tone sank several times in an instant, and Rhea suddenly laughed: "Hehehe, after all these years, you are also the first one who dares to speak to me like that besides that guy."
Hearing this tone, Zeus on the side only felt a chill behind him, and at the same time cast a worried look at Hermes.
Although the specific structure has not changed, he seems to have overestimated the psychological endurance of his mother god!
"Your Highness is absurd, I am ashamed."
Zeus is panicking now, but Hermes is more stable than this father god.
To be reasonable, Hermes is not afraid of Rhea.
This time Danatus was able to become the main god not because of the other party, even though Zeus’ idea at the beginning was to invite his own mother god to suppress those who had other ideas—such as Demeter, Hestia, etc. ya.
But even so, it can't change the fact that the Goddess of Time is a past tense after all.
The reason why Rhea still has such a noble status today is not so much because of her identity and strength, but because Zeus respects the mother goddess.
If not, without the support of His Majesty the God King, how would Goddess of Time intervene in the affairs of Olympos?
For the sake of looking at Zeus before, Hermes also showed his attitude.
It's a pity that Hermes had already made up his mind to attack Demeter when they came over.
The other party is the second daughter of the Goddess of Time, so doing so will inevitably touch Rhea's back scales.
But just because he was afraid of offending the Goddess of Time, would Hermes choose to give up?
No, can't give up.
In order to repay Zeus' efforts this time, and also for himself, Hermes will not choose to show mercy this time.
"I want to obtain the power of nature. Since Her Majesty the Goddess of Agriculture does not have enough strength to maintain the weight of the law, I will naturally accept this vacancy."
Standing up from the throne, Hermes took a step forward, his tone full of inexplicable meaning, "After all, some positions have always been 'occupied by the capable'. This can be regarded as the rule set since ancient times. Your Highness should not Will you object?"
"Who are you talking to?"
Rhea blushed suddenly for Hermes' unceremonious words, "It's really, it's too presumptuous!"
It may be because the heart was so shocked that Goddess of Time stuttered all of a sudden.
But this is not surprising. Rhea has been enjoying honor since Zeus came to power, but whoever is not polite to this Great Mother God among all the gods?
So the Goddess of Time, who was used to being praised, suddenly encountered Hermes' opposite behavior, and immediately felt the gap in it, and her whole expression became very ugly.
"Mother God, please don't get excited."
Contrary to Rhea's expectation, it was obvious that he had shown such an angry side, but this time, the son of Zeus did not vent his anger on himself for the first time.
Not to mention venting his anger, Zeus didn't even say a serious word when facing Hermes!
Seeing this scene, Rhea only felt sad, and at the same time felt a little cold in her heart.
Isn't this the son she has spoiled for so long?
"Your Highness wants to be a loving mother. I don't deny that this is a very good idea, but everything has to be viewed in light of reality."
Look at Rhea who was hit hard, feel Zeus' gaze, Hermes returned a look of "be safe and don't be impatient", put his hands behind his back, pretended to be a senior educator, and started talking nonsense, "Your Highness also knows that the matter between His Majesty Hades and Persephone is doomed by fate, so don't say it is us, even my father god, the great king of the gods of Olympus, is powerless to interfere ,Change."
The tone suddenly became serious, Hermes and Zeus looked at each other, and then they started to have a debate with Rhea.
……
At the same time, just as Hermes and the others turned their attention to the Tomb of the Gods, the seemingly stable interior of Olympos was also not peaceful.
"You should have heard of it, right?"
In the Temple of Love, the Goddess of Love dressed in brocade clothes looked at her silent husband, and her tone suddenly became a little anxious, "Athena and the others have already made a move, I really don't understand, it's already this time, What are you still struggling with?"
That's right, while Athena secretly went to the earth to make various arrangements, Aphrodite's eyes also followed closely behind her.
So whenever there is a change on Athena's side, Cupid will know it immediately.
"Then what do you want me to do?"
Facing the very tough Eros, Hephaestus was silent for a while, his tone a little helpless, "You also know that my great aunt still holds most of the power of fire, and the human race does not need me now, but As for you..."
After a pause, Vulcan shook his head, apparently feeling that his wife was equally unreliable.
But this is also the truth, if you really want to fight for faith, unless you have
