The Dragon That Devours the World
Chapter 21: Goddess' Revenge
Since Thebes returned, the young man was welcomed by the whole city of Thebes, and people rushed to see the young hero who killed the giant lion with his bare hands.
The young hero is reckless and does not know what modesty is. In his opinion, victory should be cheered. Why should his own glory belittle it?
And the king of Thebes, his stepfather, was also very happy for him. In the eyes of Amphitryon, his stepson was destined to become famous all over the world, but he did not expect it to be so soon.
Amphitryon personally held a banquet for his stepson to celebrate his return.
However, not only the young heroes and guests came, but also a distinguished guest.
…
"Come, come..."
The guests and the host were very happy to drink between the cups. They drank wine, shared barbecue, sang and danced together.
Since the creation of the world, human beings have always been very happy. Although they have the troubles of birth, old age, sickness and death, they are good at enjoying the happiness of the moment. In happy times, there is no honor, no worries, only people who dance together.
In contrast, the gods could not be so free and easy. ? They all live too long, there are many happy things, and there are more troubles, but they are not as good as these fast-decaying mortals.
Just like an uninvited guest in this great hall.
In the corner of the main hall, a mysterious person in a robe looked at everything in front of her, her silver teeth clenched in anger, her chest heaving slightly, suppressing her anger.
No one in the hall could see the true face of this mysterious man, only the snake lying on the shoulders of the young hero noticed.
Its gaze penetrated through the robe and saw the true face of the mysterious man.
With golden curly hair, a proud and reserved bearing, and a beautiful face that surpasses all human beings and gods, isn't that the Queen of Heaven, Hera?
Of course, this noble goddess is not here for nothing.
In the past, this evil species named "Glory of Hera" has been staying in the country of the snake people. This goddess can turn a blind eye, as long as he doesn't get in the way of his own eyes.
But now, her husband made no secret of how much he valued this villain. He favored him so much that even his lover could not receive such favor.
Before, even all the gods saw the scene of this young hero fighting a giant lion.
unbearable!
Absolutely unbearable!
Full of jealousy emerged, and the handsome appearance of the young hero was more disgusting than a toad in the eyes of this diva.
"Zeus... I'm your wife, how could you treat me like this."
The goddess was trembling all over, her love for her husband and her anger against his promiscuity, all kinds of memories were entangled in her heart repeatedly.
The existence of this evil species is simply the biggest mockery of himself.
But the goddess hasn't lost her mind yet. She knows that Zeus values this child and will never allow her to shoot directly.
"Laugh, laugh, your laughter won't last long."
Looking angrily at the smiling young hero, the goddess disappeared into the hall.
The snake looked at all this, and it had the ability to stop it, but it just wagged its tail indifferently, as if it had nothing to do with itself.
"Poor, it seems that the little meatball is going to be in trouble."
The snake lay on the shoulders of the young man, yawned, but said indifferently.
And the little meatball in its mouth - the young man is still happily drinking wine, and he doesn't know anything about his future.
After the banquet, the king of Thebes thought that his adopted son was impeccable in bravery, so he decided to send him several teachers to teach him astronomy, geography, philosophy, music, and try to make him a more ideal hero.
The young man accepted it happily.
But he never imagined that one day after a period of time, he would get angry because of a dispute with his music teacher, grab the chitel and smash it at his teacher.
But how can a great hero with natural power be able to resist? With just one blow, the old musician fell to the ground.
The young man regretted this and chose to self-exile.
In the sky, the snake smiled especially happily after seeing that day. But the snake still watched indifferently, knowing that this was just the beginning.
Sure enough, the goddess' revenge was as fierce as a storm.
Even in exile, the hero's brilliance cannot be suppressed. While shepherding the sheep, the young hero meets the messengers of the kingdom of Minyas who have come to blackmail the Greek city-state.
The young hero easily drove away these blackmailers, but he knew that it would be impossible to defeat these foreigners by himself.
So, he mustered some young Greeks to fight with him, preparing to fight the Minians who were about to invade.
And the stepfather of the young hero also heard the news, and he led an army to support him, lest the young hero be in danger. The three sides fought in the gorge, and the king of Minyans was beheaded, but the young hero's stepfather, Amphitryon, was also killed in the battle.
…
"Boom..."
The battlefield under the rainstorm was full of corpses, and there were corpses and scattered shield weapons everywhere.
The great hero in lion's skin is not afraid of swords, but at this moment he is panic-stricken, like a child who has made a mistake.
"Father! Father!"
He rushed to the dying king's side as if rolling and crawling, screaming in surprise. He covered the king's wounded abdomen with his hands, but the blood was pouring out and he couldn't hold it.
"Hercules... No, Alcides."
The dying king looked at his adopted son who was so anxious that he almost cried, he smiled with difficulty, and called the adopted son's nickname.
"My child, my child, you are the descendant of the gods, destined to make a great career, but you shouldn't cry here."
She stroked Yoshiko's cheek with her hand, her body became weaker and colder. The king has realized that he is afraid that he can't hold it anymore.
Clap la la, the rain is pouring, the hero tries his best to shield his adoptive father from the rain. And his adoptive father was still pale.
"Son, I have made many achievements and been called a hero, but I believe you can go further than me on this road... When you go further, tell me what it is Such a world..."
He spoke weakly, intermittently, but refused to stop because of some obsession.
After seeing his adopted son nodding, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Brave...wisdom...humility...hospitable...integrity..."
The king's eyes gradually lost its luster, and he whispered softly about the creed he believed in all his life.
In his memories, he seemed to see a boy, that handsome boy determined to become a great hero.
He bravely took the cattle of the Taphos; defeated the foreign king; eradicated the fox that cannibalize; married the beautiful princess of Mycenae;
Scenes of past events, or joy or regret, there is only one thing that still makes him a little confused.
"Have I... become the hero I wanted to be?"
The eyes gradually plunged into eternal darkness.
…
For the young hero, Amphitryon was like his own father, and he was inexplicably sad and couldn't help it.
In the heavy rain, the always confident young hero, holding the **** body of Amphitrite, burst into tears.
However, the snake still shook his head.
Not enough, this is far from enough, how innocent and gentle that goddess used to be, and how strong her revenge after being jealous because of love.
And far away in the sky, the Queen of Heaven watched the young man on the ground crying sadly and smiling happily, but beside her, another goddess in armor and armor shook her head.
"Sad, pitiful and respectable hero, please rest in the underworld."
There was a petal in the arm of the goddess in uniform, and the petal flew and flew, hovering, and landed on the hero.
…
Three nights later, the young hero is still unable to sleep.
After tossing and turning, he couldn't fall asleep, so he simply got up.
When he came outside, he saw the bright moon and the constellation symbolizing the lion among the stars in the sky.
"Leo, is it such a hard thing to be a hero?"
On the ground, the young hero murmured.
The constellation in the sky did not answer, but the lion opened its eyes, and it had already heard the voice of its young friend.
And in addition to the lion, someone else heard the hero's voice. Amid the stars of the night, a goddess in armor came out of the moonlight.
The young hero knew this goddess because she had guided him.
"Goddess Athena, I salute you."
The hero bowed his head and respected the goddess of Olympus, the queen of warriors, the friend of the hero, and the hero.
Among the gods, Athena is the friendliest to mortal heroes, and has guided many heroes in confusion.
The goddess stroked his head.
"Poor Hercules, your fate has caught up after all."
As she spoke, she told the young hero about his birth and the origin of his name Hercules.
The young hero who knew all this for the first time was stunned, but when he heard the whole thing, the young hero clenched his fists.
"Could it be that all this was done by the queen?"
"Shh, Hercules, don't mention this goddess casually in the future, because she may hear it. As for what you asked, I can only say that the queen did deliberately promote all this."
After cautiously warning the young hero, the goddess said again.
"The wrath of the Queen of Heaven, even Poseidon, the **** of shaking the earth, would not dare to face it directly. But you are born with fate and cause and effect, and you are destined to be entangled with the Queen of Heaven. Her revenge will never stop until you Take your last breath.

"Hercules, be careful."
When the voice fell, the figure of the goddess also dispersed.
The lost young hero sat on the steps for a long time, and after a while, he suddenly said softly.
"Amphitrium, Leo, Mona... Please watch, I will continue on this road until the last moment. I will tell you how far mortals can achieve."
He raised his head, the night was dark, and he couldn't see the figure of the queen, but he thought that the goddess would actually be watching him.
Beneath the abyss, the viper goddess Mona watched her adopted son. He already knew his enemy, and gritted his teeth and decided to meet everything in the future.
She pondered, and then made a divination.
This divination is for the young hero and Hera.
"Tangled karmic fate, he is her glory, he is her enemy, she endowed him with strength, she hated him with death... Multiple graces and grievances are intertwined, the vortex of fate, unable to extricate themselves. "
Facing such a divination, the goddess shook her head.
What an indescribable pair of stepmothers and sons.
