Greece: Zeus made me the queen of heaven?

Chapter 923 Even during a half-hour lunch break, one should still find time to book a room for an hour.
"How rude of you, Goddess Nyx, for disturbing you so abruptly."

After calming down, Stix seemed to return to normal and apologized for his sudden attack.

However, Nyx didn't mind this minor offense; she simply smiled gently.

"It's alright, I can understand how you feel. After all, not everyone is as carefree as this child, who doesn't care about these things at all."

She glanced at Philotes, seemingly blaming the guy for talking nonsense.

Hearing this, Styx felt slightly relieved. It seemed that it wasn't his own thoughts that were strange, but rather Philotes who was too eccentric.

Phelotes, overwhelmed and intimidated by the appearance of Nyx, could no longer suppress Styx with firepower. Only then did Styx remember that he had initially come to hold Eros accountable.

Seeing that Styx had turned her gaze to him again, Eros took the initiative to explain before she could question him again.

"I'm so sorry, darling, I couldn't keep the promise I made to you."

“When Niki approached me, my heart was set ablaze with passion, and I did something irreversible, breaking my vow to you.”

"This is my fault, but it is also fate. I am sorry, but I will not regret it, because I will not regret my love and passion, just like I did with you back then."

Seeing Eros's sincere apology and implied confession, Styx, who had already lost most of her emotions during the argument, found it even harder to stay angry, and her tone softened instantly.

"Alas, Eros, I do not resent you, I simply..."

Styx's tone was complicated, her eyes lowered, and she leaned weakly against Eros's arm.

At this point, the situation has been largely resolved, and only minor issues remain.

"I just don't know how to deal with this kind of thing."

"Since we don't know, let's not face it for now."

Eros gently stroked the back of her head, offering her tender comfort.

"Anyway, Niki and the others are working on Mount Olympus, so you don't need to face such a scene for the time being. It's okay to pretend that it doesn't exist."

Avoiding the problem doesn't solve anything, but it's very useful. As long as the three of them don't end up on the same stage, Stix can temporarily ignore the issue.

"This"

After hesitating for a moment, Styx nodded in agreement.

"You're right, I do need to calm down and slowly accept this."

Styx slowly closed his eyes, wanting only to nestle in Eros's arms for a while and forget all these things.

Done! Seeing Styx nestled in his arms, Eros smiled with satisfaction.

With the help of many parties, this hurdle has been successfully overcome, and it is believed that Stix will fully understand it soon.

Astraea and Charon, standing to the side, were incredulous. How could it have been done so easily?
These two were still hoping for a good show, but how come Eros hadn't even been attacked or fired at much before Philotes had already fought the whole battle for him?

Damn it, I didn't get to see Eros get his comeuppance, that's not satisfactory.

"So, Astraea, how did you end up in the underworld?"

After calming Styx down, Eros turned to look at Astrid, his eyes filled with ill intent.

Without a doubt, it was Astrid, who was traveling with Styx, who detonated the bomb.

Facing Eros's somewhat malicious gaze and questioning, Astraea felt incredibly wronged. She had tried to cover for Eros, but the reason Styx discovered her wasn't her fault at all.

Astriah felt quite aggrieved to be mistaken by Eros for someone who had betrayed her, and her tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction.

"What's wrong with me being invited to come over? Is there anything wrong with that?"

Her rare display of assertiveness made Eros realize her resentment and that he might have misunderstood her, so he changed his tune.

"It's not that it's impossible, I'm just worried that you might eat something you shouldn't in the underworld and then you won't be able to return to the earth."

After both sides compromised, Astraea's tone softened considerably, showing that she does know how to care about other people's feelings.

"Don't worry so much, I just came to take a look around. I just didn't expect you to be here too, and doing such a ridiculous thing."

At this point, Astraea couldn't help but show some disdain.

To hold a party in such a repressive and solemn place as the underworld, and to spread such a bad reputation, now even the goddess of the underworld knows about this incident.

This made Astraea feel ashamed, and she was even more disgusted with Eros for doing such a thing.

"You've all misunderstood. I didn't intend to do any of this at first. I came to the underworld because I had important business to attend to."

"This is just something to do to pass the time while waiting."

It would have been better if she hadn't explained; the more she did, the more disgusted Astraea became.

If someone can throw a party for ten or fifteen days in the middle of doing something important, wouldn't it be even more outrageous if they didn't have anything important to do?
He seems like the kind of person who would go out and book a room by the hour even during his half-hour lunch break.

"What about your important business? You can't just forget about it, can you?"

"No, it's just that we might have to wait a little while."

Eros calculated that even if Hyperion had already notified the Titans in the Abyss, He might not take any action in the near future.

After all, he himself did not know how He would call Cronus and the others back.

In other words, there is no expected deadline for this important matter, which Astraea will probably find offensive again if she says that.

Just then, Charon suddenly spoke up.

"Oh, you mean that human who crossed the river last time? It's said that he's been playing the harp outside the Queen of the Underworld's garden every day lately, trying to win over Lord Hades and Her Majesty the Queen of the Underworld."

"However, the hope seems rather slim. If things continue like this, he might starve to death in the underworld."

Charon's words instantly inspired Eros, who immediately changed the subject and said...

"Has he already reached this point? Then it seems I don't need to continue testing him. It's time to grant him the miracle he loves."

Eros spoke with a serious expression, as if everything concerning Orpheus was a test for him.

Charon suddenly realized that Eros's neglect of the human crossing the river during this time was a test to see if his love could truly transcend life and death.

But even if you surpass it, what then? Crossing the River Styx is a small convenience within your authority, but the laws of life and death cannot be changed.

Must Orpheus pay the price of death to remain in the underworld and accompany the other party?
But suicide... seems...
