Saint Seiya: This Gemini is a bit of a pit

"tell a story?"

Esther was slightly surprised when she heard this, but she also let out a long sigh of relief. It turned out that her evil "brother" was just reminiscing about the past and wanted to relive the good memories in his mind.

"Galon, what story do you want to hear?"

Thinking of this, Esther forced a smile on her pretty face that was uglier than crying.

"I want to hear Troy's story."

Jia Long very naturally placed the pillow on Esther's bed, and lay down beside Esther. He rested his arms on his head, looked up at the starry sky outside the temple, and said leisurely:

"Sister, you have been lurking beside the Goddess of Strife for these years, so you must be very clear about the inside story of this war."

"The Trojan War?"

Esther's beautiful eyes flickered when she heard this, as if she was lost in a long memory. After a long while, she slowly said, "This was a war that was carefully planned by the God King, and all the gods participated in it, but in the end, there was no winner!"

"oh?!"

Jia Long immediately became interested when he heard it.

The Trojan War was a war that spread across both the human and god worlds, and was also the war that caused the Olympian gods to decline from their peak. It can be said that its influence has continued to this day.

The record of this war in the Book of the Gods is very brief:

In a marriage ceremony between a human and a god, all the gods of Mount Olympus were invited to attend, except for Eris, the goddess of discord.

So Eris decided to disrupt the wedding.

During the wedding, she threw a golden apple with the words "To the most beautiful goddess" written on it.

The Queen of Heaven Hera, the Goddess Athena, and the Goddess of Love Aphrodite who attended the wedding all thought that they were the most beautiful goddesses. So the three goddesses had a dispute and went to find the King of Gods Zeus to judge.

Each of these three goddesses has a special identity. One is Zeus' wife, one is Zeus' daughter, and one is Zeus' daughter-in-law. Zeus was simply unable to treat them equally, so he had no choice but to push the matter to Hermes, the god of lies.

Hermes invited the Trojan prince to be the judge. In order to win, the three goddesses promised him generous gifts. Hera wanted to give him power, Athena wanted to give him wisdom, and Aphrodite wanted to give him beauty.

In the end, the Trojan prince, who loved beauty more than power, chose the beauty and believed that Aphrodite was the most beautiful goddess.

Therefore, the god of love was called the goddess of beauty.

The goddess of beauty kept her promise and gave the Trojan prince the opportunity to seduce the most beautiful human at that time, Helen, the Queen of Sparta.

So the two eloped.

This triggered the war between Sparta and Troy. Driven by Hera and Athena, the war continued to escalate, and eventually Athens, Macedonia, and even various human countries were involved in the war.

The gods are no exception.

Poseidon, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Hermes, Hephaestus, etc., all the famous gods on Mount Olympus participated in the Trojan War actively or passively.

The result was naturally that Athena had the final word and instructed the coalition forces to defeat Troy with the Trojan Horse strategy.

However, the gods who participated in the war were not convinced.

As a result, Mount Olympus was divided, and eventually evolved into a situation where each clan formed its own factions. Once the King of Gods disappeared, the extremely powerful Olympian gods were suddenly engulfed in war and became a mere shell.

Even in this human age, the Olympian gods who have descended to earth continue the opposition from the Trojan War.

The contradiction is almost impossible to resolve.

They can only rely on Athena and the Sanctuary to seal the gods who attempt to provoke a war between gods one by one. This is also one of the most important tasks of the Holy War, and it is also the origin of the Holy War being called the Game of the Gods.

This is what Jaron knew about the Trojan War.

There are so many doubts that even this most famous war of gods seems a bit trifling. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a farce caused by an apple.

But at this time, Esther told Jia Long another story.

"The instigator of this war was the God King Zeus, because Mother Earth had predicted that when the goddess Thetis and humans got married, a strong man who could threaten Zeus like Athena would be born, which was later Achilles. So the God King gave the golden apple left by Mother Earth to the goddess of discord Eris, and asked her to go and destroy the wedding."

"The Queen of Heaven Hera and Athena fought for the golden apple not for the false title of the most beautiful goddess, but because this golden apple from Mother Earth could consolidate their status as the Queen of Heaven and future King of Gods. Among the three goddesses, only Aphrodite really fought for this boring title of the most beautiful."

"The gods were involved in the Trojan War. Hera and her son were at odds, the god of fire and his wife turned against each other, Apollo and his sister were seriously injured... and so on. Even Athena, who seemed to be the winner, suffered a great loss of prestige in the world. You know, Troy is the Acropolis of the Holy Land, and they believe in Athena..."

"It can be said that this war caused all the gods to suffer losses. They no longer have the means to unite and threaten the God King. Achilles also exposed his fatal weakness in this war and lost the possibility of challenging Zeus."

"In short, there is no winner, whether human or god, and the only one who benefited is the king of gods, Zeus, but he suddenly disappeared after this war."

"And after losing the protection of the God King, the goddess of discord Eris and the other god of lies Hermes who was instructed by Zeus were both avenged by Hera and sent to the terrifying abyss Tartarus."

"This is the inside story of the Trojan War that you want to know. In the final analysis, it was just a conspiracy to consolidate power instigated by the God King Zeus, with Eris, Hermes, and the Trojan princes bearing the blame..."

The Trojan War described by Esther was very different from what was recorded in the "Book of the Gods", but Jaron felt that it seemed closer to the truth of the matter.

Eris may not be a good bird, but the real mastermind is Zeus.

But no matter how wrong we are, we can’t make mistakes against the God King.

The bad guy can only be Eris.

This is how things are in the world. There are many similar situations in history, and it is often difficult to distinguish them clearly.

"Galon, now that the story is over, can you go back now?"

After telling the lengthy story of the Trojan War and fulfilling Jaron's wish, Esther finally found an opportunity to drive him away. However, at this moment, she was shocked to find that Jaron, who was lying on her bed, had closed his eyes and seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

He even snored provocatively...

"You...damn Tian Kuixing!!"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 319: Double! Pandora's Warning (Part )

Esther was on the verge of going berserk all night long. She stared at the sleeping Jia Long, her sapphire eyes flickering with divine light.

She was not afraid of what Jia Long might do to her.

She was just weighing the pros and cons of killing Jia Long at this time.

Killing him would ruin her plan.

If she doesn't kill him, this evil guy will keep touching her bottom line.

"Although this human being is damned, I still need him to help me ripen the golden apples and restore my true body and strength. After killing him, I can only find another suitable candidate. The jihad is approaching, and the time left for me is running out."

"However, since the mythological era, no matter whether it is human or god, anyone who offends me will have a bad ending. Gemini Garlon, you'd better not do anything out of line again, otherwise..."

Just when Ai Siquan weighed the pros and cons and finally chose to continue to endure.

Jia Long, who was sleeping soundly, turned over suddenly, leaned his head against her side, and murmured as if in a dream:

"Sister, it's great that you can come back, your place is still as white as when you were a child."

"what!"

The fire in Esther's heart that had just been extinguished was suddenly ignited. She felt that if she stayed with Jia Long any longer, she would definitely go berserk. Resisting the urge to kill, Esther gritted her teeth, stood up, and walked into the bathroom, wanting to take a shower to calm herself down.

But it didn't take long.

The door of the washroom was pushed open, and Jia Long walked in sleepily. Looking at Esther who was frozen in the sound of splashing water, his face once again showed an expression of nostalgia that almost made the latter collapse.

"Sister, are you taking a bath? I miss you rubbing my back when we were bathing together when we were little..."

"Get out! Get out of here! Now, immediately!"

"profound."

……

This time, Jia Long left very happily. He not only left the bathroom, but also left Esther's room.

Because he sensed murderous intent.

Boundless murderous intent.

If Esther had not been in a state of panic, she would have pounced on him and bit him to death.

So Jia Long slipped away tactfully.

He slipped away.

Esther in the washroom collapsed. She didn't even bother to take care of her wet hair. She put on a coat and disappeared into the void.

She just couldn't stand it anymore.

She was almost driven crazy after just one day together.

But she couldn't kill Jia Long.

She could only choose to leave Mithril Demon Island temporarily and find someone to talk to about the humiliation and depression in her heart.

Eastern Dao Realm.

Inside an elegant villa in southern Xinjiang.

A stunning beauty in a black dress was sitting quietly beside a harp, plucking the strings gently with her hands. Beautiful notes floated out through the window, attracting many birds to fly to the window and stop to listen.

"Pandora, you seem to be in such a good mood, but I'm almost pissed off!"

The void opened, and Esther, who was soaking wet, walked out. Without asking for her master's opinion, she sat down on the large bed angrily. It seemed that she was very familiar with Pandora.

"Oh."

Pandora merely nodded slightly at Esther's arrival, and then her slender fingers plucked the strings again, seemingly having no interest in responding to Esther's complaints.

"Pandora, can you please give me some reaction? Is there nothing in this world that you care about?"

"Esther, you just care too much about everything, so there are always disputes and discords around you..."

Pandora plucked the strings gently, and the strings vibrated to produce soothing notes. Pandora played the harp with her fingers and said to the irritable Esther:

"Esther, the difference between you and me is that I am always calm, so no matter how I pluck this harp, it will never produce even a single harsh note."

Esther snorted disapprovingly, "What do you mean by calm? You are just indifferent, okay? Humph, it seems that I have found the wrong person to confide in. I wanted to tell you about that bastard Garlon I met these two days..."

"Collapse~"

Before Esther finished her words, a harsh note was heard. She looked in shock and found that Pandora, who had just claimed to be calm and composed, had actually broken the strings of her harp.

"Esther, Gemini Garlon is on your Mithril Demon World Island?"

"Not only that, he is still my 'little brother' now."

"Oh?"

Pandora, who was originally indifferent to everything, seemed to have a common topic with Esther all of a sudden.

"Pandora, I know the grudge between you and him. You want to kill him as soon as possible, but he is still very useful to me and our underworld. When I have used him, I will kill him to avenge you."

"Esther, I don't need you to get involved in my affairs."

"Pandora, I don't want to kill him just for you. I want to kill him as badly as you do. Do you know how hateful this guy is? He is driving me crazy!"

"He fucked you?"

"No, I blame your subordinate Tian Kuixing. I just planted dark water drops on him yesterday, and he wants to see mine... and him at dinner... and at night..."

After talking to Pandora, Esther felt much better.

"Anyway, I get a headache just seeing him now, and I'm afraid he'll continue to harass me during the day, so I have no choice but to come to your place. You won't reject me, will you?"

"It's okay, Esther. Just rest here with me. I'll let Cheshire come to accompany you later."

"Are you going out?"

"Well, the Dao Realm is not peaceful right now, and I have some urgent matters to deal with."

"Then go and do your thing, don't worry about me."

"it is good."

After Pandora finished speaking, she turned around and hurriedly left the room.

Looking at Pandora's somewhat anxious back, Esther couldn't help but reveal a little confusion on her face.

"My friend seems to be a little abnormal. Why is she suddenly so concerned about things other than Pluto? Could it be that the series of failures have stimulated her?"

"However, this is a good thing. If Pandora gets serious, coupled with my two brothers who are about to awaken, and me who will recover my true form in the future, it is entirely possible to launch the Great Eclipse in advance and let the gods of the abyss descend on this land!"

……

Arctic Ocean.

On the Mithril Demon Island, Jia Long returned to his room and went into the washroom. He seemed to have slept soundly last night, but in fact he remained highly alert all the time. At this moment, he was no less tired than Esther.
