Greece: I am Zeus!

Chapter 275 Hecate's Little Secret

Hermella had been thinking about this all this time, longing for it day and night, waiting for this very moment.

Now, because she, as the mother goddess, is too obsessed with the god-king... she has completely forgotten...

This……

It goes far beyond just being "embarrassing".

I'm so ashamed I could hardly bear it!

The goddess of the night, whose face was already flushed, was now even redder, as if a delicate flower was weeping blood.

With trembling hands, she covered her face, which was filled with shame. She felt that it would have been better to just faint.

Unfortunately, it's absolutely impossible for a supreme being like her to faint.

Even if one wanted to make divinity lose its clarity, that would be extremely difficult.

Aside from the brief period of confusion when subjected to the God King's severe beatings, she has never been out of her mind under any other circumstances.

She forced herself to calm down, her mind racing, desperately trying to come up with a good explanation.

Tell the truth? Absolutely not!

How could I possibly say that?!
Does she even care about her dignity as a mother goddess?!

She could disregard her pride in front of her beloved Zeus, and she could act as coquettishly or clingily as she pleased. She could do whatever the king of gods wanted.

But in front of her own child...

It is absolutely necessary!

In fact, within the cold, silvery moon of the underworld—Aetron—Hemera, who had been waiting for a long time, was already burning with impatience.

She was also very puzzled. So much time had passed, why hadn't the Mother Goddess sent any message? Not even a single word.

Hecate, radiant and beautiful, watched her beloved older sister quietly, her mind churning with thoughts.

Ever since Aetron arrived, this kind older sister who is in charge of "daylight" has seemed restless.

This stands in stark contrast to His brothers and sisters.

It should be noted that the other brothers and sisters were much more relaxed after temporarily escaping the suffocating "low pressure" of the Mother Goddess.

The truth is, the Mother Goddess's mood has been too unpredictable lately, which is quite frightening, and no one dares to get too close.

But the good sister Hemera still kept thinking about returning to the Mother Goddess's side.

That's just too strange.

Although my dear sister is gentle and beautiful, she shouldn't be so worried about Mother Goddess, right?

An eternal and supreme goddess like the Mother Goddess is only in a bad mood because of the great Father God; there is no need for any deity to worry about her.

Even when playing games with her siblings, she always seemed distracted.

She even subconsciously kept looking towards the direction of the Mother Goddess's Temple.

More accurately, it's a matter of wanting to look but not daring to, only occasionally glancing at it briefly before immediately looking away.

His eyes were filled with complex and unfathomable emotions, as well as obvious anticipation and anxiety.

The more Hecate thought about it, the more curious she became.

A vivid yet vague flash of inspiration kept drifting through her mind.

She felt that if she could grasp it, she could figure everything out.

However, this most crucial point is something that just can't be grasped.

However, she was certain that this matter was related to the Mother Goddess!
It must also be related to the thing they've been secretly plotting during this time.

Ever since the good sister came to her domain, she had been wondering: what exactly were the Mother Goddess and this good sister secretly plotting during this time?

I vaguely remember hearing something about a "surprise"?
A "surprise" for the great Father God.

Explain what a surprise is.

What kind of surprise is it?

Until she discovered that the once lifeless and oppressive curtain of night that shrouded the entire underworld began to surge violently as if it had come to life, like a deep sea being stirred up by the moon tide, circling and rising higher and higher.

Unable to contain her curiosity, she secretly cast her gaze downwards, looking towards the place where the Mother Goddess's aura was strongest.

Ok……

I can't see anything...

As the sole source of light in the Netherworld, she is also an undisputed powerful goddess, possessing the supreme authority to guide the dead into the Netherworld.

It can be said that there is almost nowhere in the entire underworld that she cannot see.

Even so, it is absolutely impossible to see through the night curtain personally laid by the goddess of the night.

All she could see was the night, as still and swirling, surging and boiling ever more fiercely.

However, she soon saw that in the pitch-black night sky, golden lightning bolts were appearing one after another, dancing violently within it.

She immediately understood.

Oh ~
The great Father God has arrived!
Hecate was startled, her small mouth agape.

She instinctively covered her mouth and quickly calmed herself down.

She glanced around discreetly, thankfully no one noticed her disheveled appearance.

A faint, almost imperceptible blush appeared on that snow-covered surface, as clear and cold as the moonlight.

She's not some naive little goddess who knows nothing.

But don't forget, she also has a good older sister by her side, named Philotes.

The goddess who holds the power of "friendship" and "pleasure".

Under Philotes's constant exposure, it was difficult for her to understand much, even if she wanted to. Knowing that the Father God had descended, she was naturally both surprised and delighted.

Although being able to stay by the Mother Goddess's side is a very happy thing.

But if God the Father is with you, then you will be even happier, twice as happy!

Unfortunately, the Father God carries the weight of the Three Realms and the Six Directions on his shoulders.

The God-King was far too busy with his affairs of state to have much time to come to the Underworld.

So, all I can do is keep thinking about it in my heart.

However, now that the Father God has come, after expressing his feelings to the Mother Goddess, he should be able to see Him at least once.

Happy!
However, after the initial joy, Hecate felt even more confused.

The arrival of the Father God is not surprising.

But why is it that dear sister Hermella is still keeping an eye on what's happening on Mother Goddess's side?

Um? ! ! !

Could it be!

What my dear sister was paying attention to wasn't the Mother Goddess at all, but... the Father God?!

A bolt of lightning, seemingly emanating from the Temple of Wisdom, suddenly flashed by, instantly clearing the fog from Hecate's chaotic mind!
This flash of lightning connected all the clues, leading her to an extremely bold suspicion!
No wonder, no wonder!
Hermella, her sister, should have lived on Olympus.

Moreover, as one of the indispensable gods in the universe, she should have returned to Olympus long ago, instead of staying in the underworld for so long!
So... so she was here, waiting for the Father God to arrive...

After all, the Mother Goddess has always been in the Netherworld, so the Father God will come sooner or later.

The Mother Goddess must know about this!

No, it's not just about knowing!
Hermella's actions must have been supported by the Mother Goddess!

Without the support of the Mother Goddess, Hermella would never have dared to have such a thought.

But... given the Mother Goddess's strong possessive nature, how could she possibly support such a thing?

She probably wants to completely possess the Father God, right?

Could it be... that you've been under too much pressure lately?
Or do you feel that there are too many goddesses on Mount Olympus, making the competition increasingly fierce?
That makes sense...

After Hecate had basically figured things out, she would occasionally glance at Hemera.

She pretended to be casual, but in reality, she was extremely attentive.

Now, her unease about Hermella is completely understandable.

No wonder, after everyone had only been playing the game for a short while, she said, "The Mother Goddess may have something to ask me to do later," and then stopped playing.

Now it seems that she was clearly waiting for the Mother Goddess to summon her...

Wait!!!

Since the Mother Goddess can support Hermella...

Doesn't that mean...

!!!

Hecate felt her heart start pounding wildly, and it wouldn't slow down.

An extremely bold idea that she had never considered before quickly ignited in her heart like a wildfire.

This fire cannot be extinguished or suppressed, no matter what you do.

Hecate casually picked up a cup of divine wine and drank it all in one gulp.

But this cool, sweet wine, barely down the throat, only intensified the fire in my heart.

Now, like Hermella, she too became preoccupied.

And so it began, as it kept secretly glancing at the churning, dark night sky.

Until she sensed that two new, unfamiliar yet familiar, powerful auras had appeared in the netherworld.

Hecate knew then that she must have gained two more younger brothers and sisters.

Hermella naturally sensed it too, and she felt both surprised and excited.

She figured, Mother Goddess, shouldn't you be sending a message by now?
Should……

Is it my turn?
And so, she has waited until now...

Until the night sky that covered the entire underworld began to gradually dissipate.

Hecate, who had a panoramic view of the entire underworld, clearly saw a flash of golden lightning disappear into the depths of the night.

'Oh dear! Father God, really! After being intimate with Mother Goddess, he just left! He didn't even think to come and see me... his sisters!'

After sulking for a moment, Hecate glanced casually at the corner again.

Hermella sat there, lost in thought, like a still image formed by the light of day.

She was filled with doubt.

Could it be that I've misunderstood?

Hecate's heart sank.

But that doesn't make sense either.

Given Hermella's recent "abnormal" behavior, it's impossible that I'm wrong.

So where exactly did things go wrong?
Could it be... that the Mother Goddess has changed her mind at the last minute?
Or...did I just forget?

With a quick glance, she decided to play it safe for now!
So she calmly got up, her skirt trailing silently on the ground, dodged her playful brothers and sisters, and walked gracefully to the side of the stunned Hermella, reaching out to gently take her slightly cool hand.

She said softly, "Dear sister, have you been too tired lately? Why don't you go and rest for a while?"
