Greece: Zeus made me the queen of heaven?

Chapter 918 It's all that man's fault!

Huh? Goddess Niki?

Astriah was somewhat bewildered, but she quickly remembered who the other person was. However, after remembering, she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in the face of Styx's smile.

Niki, she did know her. She was the one who guarded Zeus's gate, drove his chariot, was always at Eros's beck and call, and was the most enthusiastic at parties. Despite her petite stature, her drumming was particularly eye-catching.

Hearing this, all my memories came flooding back, but none of them were pleasant ones.

Especially now, with Stix looking at him with a kind smile, those memories seem even more agonizing.

"This and this"

Astriah hesitated, unsure of how to answer.

Oh no, the other party is clearly quite concerned about this!
Although I haven't heard much about any rumors between the other party and Eros, I can probably understand it by thinking about it.

How could Eros, who came from the underworld, possibly miss such a beautiful goddess who lived alone?

Then, recalling Niki on Mount Olympus, Astraea immediately understood the absurd things that bastard Eros had done.

Secretly having an affair with someone's daughter behind their mother's back—that's exactly the kind of thing Eros would do.

Now that they've noticed something's up and are starting to ask her about things, how should she respond?

As the goddess of justice, she could not conceal the truth, lie for Eros, or deceive him.

But Eros is his father, and his status is extraordinary. If he tells the truth frankly, and Styx gets angry and rushes to Olympus to demand an explanation, making a big fuss, how will he deal with the situation?
Faced with this difficult choice, Astraea could only reluctantly make a decision against her will.

"Well... I'm not very familiar with this either, so I'm not really sure."

Astraea decided to keep the matter quiet for now and tell Eros about it privately later.

As for Styx, I can only apologize in advance.

"Is that so? But I've heard that Eros is indiscriminate on Mount Olympus, and the entire Mount Olympus is like his backyard, with no goddess able to escape his clutches?"

Styx didn't say much, but simply continued speaking casually.

"Haha... This rumor is utter nonsense. Aren't there many goddesses on Mount Olympus who still remain pure?"

Astrid said somewhat guiltily.

"For example, goddesses like Artemis, Athena, and Hestia, they couldn't possibly have any connection with Eros, could they?"

Fortunately, with such strong evidence, this statement should not be exposed.

"Oh, so that includes you? The goddess of justice and purity he recreated?"

Styx's tone suddenly became sharp, so incisive that Astrid was momentarily speechless and unable to reply.

Should she stubbornly insist that she's just like those goddesses? But she's simply not good at lying.

So, was it possible that all the lies I just told could be seen through just by looking at my expression?

Just as Astrid was thinking this, Styx sighed.

"Sigh, you really don't need to cover for that guy at all."

“I know what that guy is like. When I went to Mount Olympus this time, Niki and the other kids acted a bit strangely.”

“Although I wanted to find out from the other goddesses, I seemed to have been persuaded to keep it a secret for those children, so I wanted to ask you alone.” Hearing this, Astraea lowered her head in shame. So the other party already knew?

Yet, under these circumstances, she herself lied; she, the goddess of justice, lied.
"I'm sorry... Goddess Styx, I just felt that this kind of thing..."

Astraea hadn't figured out how to explain, but when she looked up, she saw that Styx's gentle face was now filled with murderous intent, looking like a dark cloud.

"So that guy really did it, huh?! Just a moment, I'll be right back!"

Were we scammed?!

Completely unprepared for this, Astrid quickly reached out and grabbed Styx, stopping her from going straight to settle scores with Eros.

"Calm down! Calm down!"

Although no matter how you look at it, this was done by his scoundrel father, and there was no reason for Styx to stop him.

But at this point, she could only deal with this troublesome problem for Eros.

“Eros is not on Mount Olympus either, goddess. You won’t be able to find him even if you go there.”

"And your children, Niki and the others, are also on Mount Olympus. They will surely stand up for Eros and say that it was all of their own free will."

"Such reckless behavior will only make things more complicated!"

After Astraea's efforts to dissuade and pull Styx, she finally managed to bring him down, preventing another embarrassing incident from happening on Mount Olympus.

Even after successfully stopping Stix, the dejected Stix still needed some comforting and words of advice.

"Waaah... He promised me."

"I understand, I understand, men's words are deceitful..."

“I know those kids’ personalities well, so I was worried that something like this would happen…”

"Hey, kids grow up, and some things are inevitable. At least this proves that you both have good judgment, right? It's better than other situations, isn't it?"

Astraea could only patiently comfort her, and Styx, as the goddess of the Styx, naturally caused the entire Styx to tremble as she wept.

Her tears are the rushing of the River Styx, her sobs are the swift roar of the River Styx.

The turmoil on the River Styx quickly attracted the attention of some people.

Just as Astrid was comforting Styx, a figure in a small boat quietly approached on the River Styx.

"Who is causing trouble on the River Styx? Don't they know that the River Styx is crucial to the operation of the entire underworld?"

Charon, the ferryman of the River Styx, rushed to the source of the disturbance as soon as he noticed the abnormal fluctuations in the river.

When she reached the shore, she saw the two goddesses on the banks of the River Styx and exclaimed in surprise.

"Huh? Isn't this the goddess of the Styx? What are you doing here? And why are you crying?"

Charon asked in bewilderment when he saw clearly that the person crying on the shore and causing the Styx to ripple was none other than Styx, the goddess of the Styx.

"And who is this goddess? She doesn't seem to be a deity of our underworld, does she?"
