Adros looked at the twin teenagers brought in by Hades. They both had long silver hair and handsome faces. The difference was that one boy had a cold expression and the other had a gentle expression.
Unlike other twins, one of their arms and one foot are connected together, making it difficult for them to walk.
"I have met Lord Hades." After the two teenagers entered the hall, they looked at no one else but looked at Hades with admiration.
"They are Thanatos and Hypnos, the children of the goddess Nyx, the Lord of the Night, and my future gods. Their bodies have been connected since birth. In this underworld, they have suffered so much Bullying and ridicule from the gods. I asked eldest sister to come here just because I want you to help me separate the two of them."
The Lord of the Night, Nyx, like the Earth Mother Gaia, is also a great primordial god, and her husband is Erebus, the Lord of Darkness. If we really want to talk about it, Adros believes that the underworld is the most hidden place. Among the five original gods, except Gaia, the mother of earth, and Eros, the lord of love, the other three, including Tartarus, the lord of hell, Erebus, the Lord of Darkness, and Nyx, the Lord of Night, their kingdoms are both in the underworld. Not to mention their many children, and some of the powerful gods imprisoned in Tartarus.
Adros noticed that after listening to Hades's words, the eyes of the two teenagers were full of admiration, just like children towards their fathers. He thought to himself, was this how the future Geminis, the powerful gods of death and sleep, were conquered by Pluto
"You shouldn't be looking for me, you should be looking for the god in charge of medicine." Hestia still had a cold expression, with some doubts in her heart.
"I have been learning medical skills over the years, and I am confident that I can separate them, but there is another problem. Their thinking and memory are also partially entangled. I have thought of many ways, and finally found that only your mysterious red flame , can be solved." Hades explained.
"What do you mean, burn this part of their thinking and memory, leaving only blank souls?" Hestia somewhat understood what Hades meant. Since they are entangled and difficult to separate, then simply erase them all. .
"But you have to think clearly, being burned by my red flame is as painful as the soul being pierced by countless swords. Are you sure they can endure it?" Hestia thought for a while, but first reminded Hades that she The power of the flames is not something anyone can endure.
"Don't be afraid, they can bear it." Hades smiled and nodded. During the Battle of the Titans, he witnessed with his own eyes how the god who fought the decisive battle with his eldest sister struggled and died in pain. But he was very confident in the brothers Thanatos and Hypnos that they could endure this pain.
"Then let's get started and let them get their souls out of their bodies."
Hades nodded to the two teenagers. They stood motionless on the ground with excited expressions on their faces. Then their souls came out of their bodies and stood naked in front of Hestia.
The mysterious red flame appeared on Hestia's right hand, and was then controlled by her to become a knife made of flames. She used the red flame knife to go towards the souls of the two brothers Thanatos and Hypnos, starting from the connected shoulders.
At the same time, Hades also took out a sharp blade, looked at the bodies of the two brothers, tore off their clothes, and slashed at the connection between them. When his sword fell, their bodies separated, and with it, bright red blood flowed out.
Hades stopped their blood, and then looked to the other side, where the souls of the two brothers were being burned by the flames. At this time, the pained faces of the two brothers began to deform, making people twitch. Despite this, they endured without so much as a cry.
Hestia's flaming sword slowly went down, from her shoulders to her arms, then from her arms to her waist, from her eyes through her thighs, and finally ended at her feet. The whole process was extremely slow and took three days.
After it was over, Hestia herself was so tired that her face turned pale, while Thanatos and Hypnos had already passed out. Hades used his divine power to return the souls of the two brothers to their bodies, and then ordered people to take them down to rest.
"Thank you, sister, for your hard work." Hades thanked Hestia repeatedly.
Hestia shook her head and glanced at him: "You are alone in this underworld, so you can take care of yourself." Not long after saying this, she went back to the human world.
Styx quickly followed with Adros, then walked away and said with a smile: "Don't leave in a hurry, come to my place to play for a while."
Queen Persephone looked at Hades, then at her mother Demeter, and said to Hades: "I'll be back in half a year." After that, she left with them.
······
The River Styx is the most mysterious of the four rivers of the underworld. It is the river of the underworld, but it occasionally flows to the human world. Mortals who encounter the water of the Styx must enter the underworld. However, if the gods touch this river, their divine power will lose their divinity. Therefore, the gods swear by this river as the most solemn oath, and demigods (children of gods and mortals) can live forever after soaking in the water of the Styx. , but there is one part that becomes a weak point.
After listening to Styx's introduction to it, Adros couldn't help but think of the legendary demigod hero Achilles, who seemed to be the most invincible being in the human world. If he hadn't had an enmity with his brother Apollo and was shot in the ankle with a divine arrow by him and died, he might have become another demigod like the son of destiny, Hercules.
It is a pity that Hercules has a father like Zeus who can prevent any big disaster he causes, and Athena, a sister who dotes on him, can help him make suggestions. Apparently, Achilles' mother, the sea goddess Thetis, could not keep him safe.
Looking at the turbulent black river in front of him, Adros's eyes were filled with heat, but Styx was by his side at this time, and he would definitely not allow him to jump into the river of oaths.
The palace of Styx was not as large and majestic as Hades, but it was exquisite and unique. It was located at the source of the River Styx. What surprised Adros was that several other Rivers of Styx seemed to originate from this place.
It seems that because of Adros' words, she was freed and avoided a fight. Persephone, the pure lotus-like queen of the underworld, was as obsessed with Adros as her mother, the harvest goddess Demeter. Ross loved it. Especially when she heard that Adros was also a child of Zeus and her half-brother, she was even more happy. She held Adros tightly in her arms all the way here and kissed him from time to time. This makes Adros happy but helpless. It seems that all the goddesses he is familiar with, except Hestia, who always has a cold face, all have this hobby.
The most unbearable thing for Adros was yet to come. Persephone somehow convinced Styx to let him come over and sleep with her every other day, and in Persephone's bed, there was still Lying was her mother, the extremely plump and seductive busty goddess Demeter. He would lie between the two of them every other day, being held in their arms and falling asleep, which made his heart burn every night, but he was powerless.
On another day, he slept with another plump and beautiful goddess Styx. He felt like he had become an escort, eating, playing and sleeping with her.
During the day, several goddesses took turns teaching him divine literature, archery, art, and even cooking and fighting. Of course, what the goddesses teach the most is the use of divine power.
Adros studied hard and was very talented. Having such a smart student made several goddesses happy, but also a little regretful.
No matter how well Adros learns, his talent and the potential of his divine power are his biggest shortcomings, preventing him from becoming one of the most powerful gods throughout his life.
"Little Adros, how about you come with me, be my god, and guide the way in the underworld." Half a year passed in a blink of an eye, and Persephone pinched Adros's face and said with a smile.
The attributes of each deity are very important. Generally, when the main god chooses a god, he not only needs to help the main god fight, but also needs his divine power and laws to be helpful to the main god and help the main god understand his own laws better. Like Styx, several of her gods are the rulers of other rivers in the underworld, Acheron, the god of the river of pain, Qiuli Plegton, the god of the river of regret, and Lute, the god of the forgotten river.
After hearing Persephone's words, Adros was moved. Persephone is still very young, and based on her strength, she may only have one god. The only quota was given to Adros, and the profound meaning was clear to everyone.
After so many days, under the guidance of several goddesses, he also figured out his divine power. It seems that it has no other uses than guidance and navigation. If you include the method of pointing the enemy's wrong path, then he can also be regarded as a guide. Got fighting spirit.
"Thank you, Sister Persephone. I'm still young. If I have the opportunity in the future, I can consider helping you." Adros declined politely.
"That's right, even if little Adros wants to become a god, he should be my god, hold the flame for me, and light up the world." It was Hestia who spoke. These days, a few of them have also considered Adros. Regarding Rose's future, Hestia mentioned that she would seek the throne of the Kitchen God on earth in the future.
Together, several people made Adros her god, controlling the flame and illuminating the world. This is the best way to not only combine with his divine power to guide the direction, but also allow him to hold Hestia's mysterious flame to protect himself.
Adros shook his head in his heart. Becoming their god was not the path he wanted to take. His future should be in this dark and gloomy Styx.
