Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 586: Selfish and Stupid Zeus
Although he was loyal, Almes knew that Zeus was not a good person.

But he really didn't expect that when everyone was working together to escape, Zeus would harm others and not benefit himself... just to take away Mount Olympus.

In the past, no matter how difficult it was or how sympathetic he was, he would at most help Athena and Apollo fill in the gaps when they were secretly doing things, or help some goddesses who really wanted to escape from Zeus' clutches to hide their tracks, but he had never really thought about leaving Zeus completely.

Even though this god is untrustworthy, goes back on his word, forgets his principles when it comes to money, and is lustful as his life, he doesn't even know what abilities he has, and is only weak inside.

But it wasn't directed at him.

Even Zeus' trust in him was limited, but at least it existed.

Even if he made a mistake, Zeus would at most reprimand him and never suspected that he would deliberately make trouble... or rather, he simply didn't care about his trouble.

This was the greatest kindness Zeus could offer.

You know, Zeus doesn't care about gender, and the Greek pantheon has never had any ethics.

Zeus will only abandon his lustful side if he truly loves a god.

Hermes was actually very grateful for Zeus's attention... Even at the beginning, it was because Hermes had worked hard to show enough intelligence.

But at least Zeus saw it and really took it seriously.

It's really not easy.

Hermes' loyalty was not enough to make him ignore the reality and call a donkey a horse... Since becoming a god, about 98% of Zeus' brain has turned into another liquid.

Hermes is truly lucky to be able to occupy a place in that 2%.

And for the children of Zeus who live on Mount Olympus, it really matters whether he cares or not.

Hera, although she looks very crazy, is actually a bully who only bullies the weak and fears the strong.

They dare not bully them when they become adults and have divine positions, but they will kill the Son of God when he is young.

Even Apollo and Artemis had to hide for many years!
After becoming friends with Apollo, Hermes actually learned a lot about how miserable the lives of the sons of Zeus, who had the same background as him, were.

Regardless of whether it was because of his innate intelligence that Zeus felt could be exploited, the result was that he was protected since childhood.

Even his mother, the woodland nymph Maia, escaped any misfortune.

Maia... Almes suddenly sighed.

He was taken away from his mother by Zeus very early, and actually had no feelings for Maia.

Moreover, Maia herself was unwilling to accept the fact that she could be deceived by something like Zeus, so she soon returned to the forest and never came out again.

The reason why Hera didn't take action again after being stopped by Apollo several times... Yes, it was Apollo who stepped forward to stop her, not Zeus himself. Zeus certainly knew that the reason Hera attacked these children was out of jealousy. He would show his importance, but would never show up in person, as that would make the already irritable Hera even more crazy... It is probably related to this.

For this queen, there is a slight difference between having an intersection for the purpose of giving birth to a child or being favored by Zeus herself.

It doesn't stop her from killing everyone, but the reality that there are always new people appearing makes her choose to catch the big ones and let the small ones go.

She could still let go of the kind of thing that would obviously have no intersection with Zeus again.

Like some kind of goddess who feels she is very innocent but is always visited by Zeus, her anger would be a little stronger.

Just like Artemis and Apollo back then.

In fact, both sides knew the hatred between her and the brother and sister, so the fact that it was Apollo who tried to stop her actually proved Zeus's will.

Unfortunately, neither Hermes nor the siblings could save their mother's life.

Apollo's mother was too weak and could not withstand the storm of hell. Even though the siblings surrounded her, she was still blown away by a gust of wind.

And Maia...as a mountain fairy, she was not willing to abandon her mountain.

Even though Hermes stood outside the forest, wailing and begging, Maia still chose to turn into dust with her sisters as the world collapsed.

Hermes was already very sad during his escape, and when his mind was most confused, he saw Zeus's amazing move.

The key point is that when he did it, he did it in front of all the gods.

In theory, the sins Hades carried would definitely not make him so miserable. After all, even if he caused the destruction of mankind, it was because of his duty as the King of the Underworld... But this boss would rather have his soul blown away by the knife-like gale of hell than not throw his scepter out to hit Zeus.

And his helmet that made him invisible was placed on Persephone.

There is no way. After the Queen of Hell entered hell, her soul was relatively clean, so she became a little conspicuous.

Otherwise, Persephone would not have been able to protect her three sons so easily... These three had too comfortable a life in the underworld and often went to the human world to make trouble.

They wouldn't hurt anyone at will.

But wherever they appear, carrying the breath of the underworld, there will be the breath of death... Knowing this and still hanging around in the city-state is indeed a sin.

In addition, because of Hades's pampering, these three people lived too happily and could not stand the pain at all. They became timid when they encountered the real thing... In a place like hell, the more afraid you are, the faster you die.

Fortunately, Persephone and Hades were both determined. It was Hades who failed to control his anger and slapped Zeus, who almost sacrificed their family to Mount Olympus as fuel.

Hermes could understand his sudden impulse.

Originally, after receiving the news, Hades' family planned to flee alone.

However, he was caught up by the sharp-eyed Zeus, and then they were imprisoned in the depths of hell... and the black hole that opened in hell was originally intended to suck in Mount Olympus.

Of course, it wasn't just Hades who took action at that time.

Some Olympian gods, knowing that they could not escape, gave their last great move in their lives to Zeus.

He was intercepted by the Lord of Hell and was almost completely turned into debris.

What a pity... Hermes never thought in his life that one day he would feel pity that Zeus was not killed.

But from that day on, he really let go of the little bit of loyalty in his heart.

From then on, I lived only for myself.

But he had never thought of taking Persephone and her family away from Olympia at first.

After all, it was Paradise Mountain.

Whatever the god inside is, at least it can heal Persephone's soul damage.

Anyway, there is no need to worry about Zeus doing anything bad to Persephone again. The damage he suffered was actually more serious than that of Hades.

If it weren't for his complete bond with Mount Olympus, he probably wouldn't even be able to save his own body.

But if you don’t sleep for hundreds of thousands of years, you probably won’t be able to wake up.

Moreover, those old guys on Mount Paradise only wanted Mount Olympus and were not very satisfied with Zeus as an accessory.

Obviously, they themselves have done a lot of bad things, and have used some crooked methods to restrict the purest and most intolerant positive energy of Heaven Mountain, which cannot tolerate evil, to a fixed area, making it impossible to sense and judge their good and evil.

However, they completely ignored the lives of the gods in Mount Olympus, exposing this holy mountain directly to positive energy. Before they could get used to it, they were instantly baptized by positive energy.

Haha~ Then, Zeus, who might have been able to control Olympia with his spirit, was instantly thrown back into his body.

The only difference between him and the corpses of gods floating in the bottom of the star realm is that he is lying in the soil, pressed at the bottom of the mountain.

Because of this unexpected situation, almost all the Olympian gods, who were already injured, fell asleep... leaving only Apollo, Artemis and Athena, as well as him and the half-crippled Persephone.

There should still be a Prometheus now, but he also fell asleep when Hermes left.

After all, he was filled with ill intentions as soon as he saw Zeus, and it was difficult to guarantee that he would not be attacked by the thunder on Mount Olympus. It would be better for him to take a nap and calm himself down and wait for the opportunity.

In the end, Hermes and Persephone could not stay in Mount Paradise forever.

There is no way. Hades and the others can never completely give up the priesthood of death.

In fact, Hades is not a pure god of death, otherwise when he escaped from hell, he might have been directly sucked into the River Styx at the top of hell, so he would not be completely abandoned by positive energy.

But his connection with the Styx, which was not very deep to begin with, would be slowly cleansed by positive energy.

In that case, Hades and the others who wake up will probably only be Titans.

But becoming the true lord of the underworld has always been Hades' reliance and goal, and Persephone does not want her husband to fall into despair the day he wakes up.

Moreover, although he had a good relationship with Apollo, Hermes also knew that the three sisters were actually very wary of him.

They were afraid that they would be stopped by him when they secretly took action against Zeus.

Hermes thought about it carefully and felt that he should make sure his loyalty was complete.

Then while Zeus was alive, Hermes could not do anything that was too un-Hermes.

So, although he helped a little secretly, he still accompanied Persephone away from Mount Paradise.

Hermes thought Athena had guessed something, so he just said a few words about meeting in other universes and let them leave.

Originally, Persephone could actually be his brother and sister while she was sober.

However, as a mother, she could never bear to watch her child wait for the arrival of the Styx deep in the cold earth without any protection.

Even if they don't feel anything at all right now.

Persephone finally chose to completely divide her divine power and wrapped it around those balls of soul fire.

The price is the complete loss of one's memory and divine power.
