Greece: Zeus made me the queen of heaven?

Chapter 899 was just a family dinner.
"No? How was this born?"

Upon hearing Minos's description, Eros was somewhat puzzled. How was this possible?
Minos's eyes darted away instinctively, but he still spoke vaguely.

“I’m not entirely sure why, but that’s exactly how the child was born.”

Some things always need a roundabout way of doing things, just like needing a fig leaf to cover up one's shame.

She couldn't possibly say that Ariadne, who was in Eros's arms, was born from her womb, or tell the whole story.

Minos considered it a good thing to leave some things in a state of ambiguity forever.

In short, this is the current situation. Ariadne is the Minotaur, except that, like Dionysus, she has two mothers.

From Minos, her pure soul was born; from Pasiphaë, the minotaur, with the blood of the gods flowing through his veins, was born.

However, Dionysus was prepared in advance by Eros and Zeus, so his body, soul, and spirit were able to merge smoothly together.

However, Ariadne did not undergo this preparation beforehand, which resulted in not only different birth times for her body and soul, but also drastically different developmental conditions.

Her body rapidly grew into a bull-headed monster the size of a mountain over the course of a few years, but her soul grew slowly, remaining in the state of a young girl.

The already mismatched body and soul are now even more difficult to integrate, not to mention that the body will act according to the instincts of life.

They hunt like wild beasts, attacking anyone and anything indiscriminately, and are completely devoid of any intelligence.

Even if they managed to merge Ariadne into that body, her immature and weak consciousness would likely make it difficult for her to gain control of the body. Instead, she would be overwhelmed by the body's instincts and completely transformed into a minotaur.

Of course, although it sounds serious, Minos wasn't actually that worried or troubled.

Even without a body, Ariadne was able to live a good life under the care of her and Parsifae.

After all, she was the Queen of Crete and the daughter of Zeus. What would be a major problem for ordinary gods and men was just a minor annoyance to her.

If she were truly so anxious about this problem, she would have gone to Eros, to her father, long ago to find a solution.

He gave a vague answer and didn't press for details. After all, the deed was done, and all that mattered was figuring out how to resolve it.

Whether you directly recreate Ariadne's body or restore the Minotaur to its normal state, this problem can be solved.

After a moment's thought, Eros immediately had an idea.

He drew metal from the air, which transformed into a golden dagger in his hand, resembling a fine sacrificial blade that appeared to have absolutely no lethality.

“When Ariadne grows up, you only need to use this dagger to kill the Minotaur, and the body will naturally disintegrate, allowing Ariadne to be reborn.”

He offered a solution with ease, demonstrating his reliability as a father. The sense of security he provided made people never worry about having no one to rely on.

Minos accepted the golden dagger, feeling much more at ease.

"Father, thank you so much."

"There's no need for that, it's what I should do anyway..."

Halfway through his sentence, Eros hesitated again. He instinctively wanted to say that it was his responsibility, but then realized that the statement was inappropriate.

Ultimately, was Ariadne, whom he held in his arms, considered his granddaughter or...?

Thinking of this, Eros felt a little guilty. How could he possibly untangle this messy family relationship?

Fortunately, Minos was very understanding and mature. She continued Eros's words and said fluently, "That's true. After all, we are all descendants of your bloodline, Father. Our glory and decline are closely linked to you."

That's emotional intelligence. It helped Eros smooth things over perfectly, and by being vague, it also glossed over the awkward situation for both of them.

Whatever it is, it is ultimately Eros's bloodline, and beyond that, there is no need to delve too deeply.

Anyway, it's said that Ariadne is definitely the child of Minos and Pasiphaë, and that the Minotaur is a monster born from Poseidon's curse.

Eros couldn't help but feel a warm glow from his eldest daughter's thoughtfulness and consideration.

How considerate! He understands the difficulties of fatherhood. If only all my children were as thoughtful as Minos…

While the two were talking, Triton and Pasifae arrived. Pasifae, who had been married for many years and was now a mother, had finally shed the rebellious look in her eyes and face and become gentle and maternal.

However, when she saw Eros, her eyes still betrayed that rebellious spirit she once possessed.

"Your Majesty Cupid, you finally have time to visit us."

Her first words carried a hint of melancholy, and her eyes couldn't help but drift towards Eros.

This statement is quite ambiguous. Before Eros could speak, Minos had already spoken first.

"Speak properly, don't act like something's wrong."

After being reprimanded by Minos, Pasiphaë regained her composure and became dignified and elegant again.

It seems that Minos can still keep Pasiphaë in check, which is good, as it means he won't let Pasiphaë run wild.

Triton, who was standing nearby, also linked arms with Pasifae and explained on behalf of his father.

“Father is indeed extremely busy. He only managed to come here because he wanted to see your and Minos’s child.”

"Yes, of course I know. I was just joking with my father."

Pasiphaë chuckled and patted Triton's hand, indicating that he wouldn't be so reckless as to scare Eros away.

She then looked at Ariadne in Eros's arms, her eyes filled with a complex expression.

"Father has already gone to see the Minotaur. Don't worry, there's already a solution."

Minos said softly, and Pasifaeu's expression turned to great joy.

"That's wonderful, my child, finally..."

Triton was a little confused and didn't know what they were talking about, but even if he didn't understand, he could tell that everyone seemed to be having a good time.

If you're happy, then you can continue according to the plan.

"In that case, let's have a joyous victory celebration!"

Triton proposed this, and Minos and Pasiphaë nodded in agreement, leaving Eros no chance to refuse.

Of course, he didn't intend to refuse, after all, it was just a family dinner.
