Chapter 128 The Heart of Reason
'That's a welcome sight." Athena's bright eyes also couldn't help but flash with envy, that was a golden apple, not every god could be as extravagant as Hebe.
'Yes, so I also ......" Suddenly, Hebe's face changed, she looked in the direction of Sicily, where a monstrous rage and divine power erupted, belonging to the goddess of agriculture, Demeter.
Hebe and Athena looked at each other, besides Persephone, who else could make Demeter lose control like that?
Something must have happened to that goddess.
These two goddesses, one was still calculating how to exchange the authority of spring from Persephone, one's brother's reincarnation had a great relationship with this goddess, this spring goddess was undoubtedly very important to them, they immediately decided to go to Sicily together, to see what had happened.
The two goddesses rode Athena's bronze chariot to Sicily, tracing the trajectory of the divine power to a cave in Sicily, and just went in to see a furious Demeter.
This goddess in green robes was full of frost, the anger in her heart made the plants inside the cave that were originally thriving because of Persephone's divine power fall into a withered state, but after the lesson of the last time, this goddess learned to be smart, she restrained her divine power and did not let this withering phenomenon spread to the earth.
Demeter held in her left hand the golden staff of wheat points that she had exchanged from Hebe with the Autumn Godhead, and in her right hand she held a gray scythe, which had flecks of blood remaining on it.
Hebe and Athena looked at each other, both seeing shock in the other's eyes.
The scythe in Demeter's hand had a great deal of history; in the days of eternity, the endless pestering and incessant lust of the starry-eyed sky father, Uranus, had tormented Gaia, the mother of the earth, and this goddess had decided to put up with it no longer, and to make the husband of this incarnation of the sky separate himself completely from himself.
So she took a piece of gray flint from the deepest part of the earth, fashioned it into a gray scythe, and gave it to her youngest son, Cronus, which was so sharp that it could cut off even the impenetrable divine body of the Father of the Heavens, and it was with it that Cronus cut off the symbol of the masculinity of Uranus and threw it into the middle of the sea.
Unexpectedly now this divine weapon was in Demeter's hands, and looking at the baleful aura on that scythe and the residual blood, this goddess had already used it to harm a certain wrongdoer, and as for who that wrongdoer was, the unmistakable familiar scent that remained in that blood silenced both goddesses.
'Your Highnesses Hebe and Athena, what brings you here." Demeter, who was in the midst of her rage, saw the arrival of the two goddesses and slightly collected her anger, she put away the two divine artifacts in her hands, and in front of her was Persephone, the Spring Goddess, who wore a crown of flowers on her head and was sobbing in a small voice.
Since Persephone was born, Demeter, in order to maintain the purity and flawlessness of this daughter, all around Persephone was strictly guarded, even a male mosquito was not allowed to appear.
Abandoned by Zeus, the goddess went to such extremes that she took Persephone to a hidden cave in Sicily, where she was not allowed to go out or come into contact with other people, believing that in this way her daughter would always be with her.
Who knew that under her strict defense, there was still a god who had eluded her probes and quietly entered the cave where Persephone was, wanting to plot against her.
But in Hebe's reminder, this world's Demeter obviously more vigilant, she has long been secretly in her daughter's cave sprinkled with the seeds of her divine power, these seeds grow into a kind of vein-like plants spread in the ground where Persephone is, when there is an unfamiliar aura appeared in the side of Persephone, Demeter immediately concerned about the goddess hoofed it to the direction of Sicily.
As soon as she entered the cave, she saw a young man with a dragon's horn on his head pressing his daughter down and trying to do something.
This action undoubtedly touched the goddess's scales.
The goddess who had experienced the Titan God Battle's eyes burned with a monstrous rage, her anger and love for her daughter made her combat power soar, Demeter took out her wheat point golden staff and flint scythe in a flash, the god of growth's original artifacts fit Demeter extremely well, only a decade or so had let this goddess become very familiar with it, and it was much more powerful than the Elpis's once was when it was being utilized.
The divine power of the Wheat Point Gold Staff landed on the body of that dragon horned youth in an instant, the divine power of turning stone into gold like a maggot climbing up from his feet, turning half of his body into dazzling and brilliant gold, and the flint scythe in her right hand was swung out by the goddess, wanting to cut off the head of this audacious lunatic in one blow.
However, she did not expect the other party's body to suddenly emanate a strong divine power fluctuation, shattering the gold on his body, the incomparably sharp flint scythe did not enter the other party's body, but was dodged by his vitals, and blood gushed out on Persephone, causing this delicate and weak Goddess of Spring to instantly let out a horrified scream.
That dragon horned youth stifled a grunt and raised his hand to strike Demeter's shoulder, that tremendous force knocked this goddess back, Demeter looked at her crumbling shoulder, her complexion was gloomy, to be able to destroy her godly body as one of the twelve main gods, there weren't many of them in the world, this was by no means as simple as just a lecherous demonic dragon.
That dragon horned youth also seemed to realize what, at that moment also no longer entangled with Demeter, at once turned into a black dragon fled from this cave, Demeter did not go to chase, but stayed behind to take care of his own daughter's situation, which led to this scene that Hebe and Athena saw just now.
Also did not expect, Zeus this guy seems to be in the hunt on the skill point full like, Demeter has been so tightly guarded, Persephone are hidden in this deep cave for more than ten years, but also can be found by him this vicissitudes of the pearl.
Hebe and Athena were able to sense their master through the scent of blood left on the scythe, Demeter naturally could as well, which made this goddess's anger reach its peak once again, if it wasn't for the fact that she couldn't fight, and that regicide would bring about serious consequences, she would have already carried the scythe and killed her way up to Mount Olympus.
'Persephone, tell me, did he do something to you or not!" Demeter looked at her daughter and asked sternly.
'Mother God ...... Obinos and I are truly in love, he very much respects my will, we also only ...... today," the beautiful and stunning Persephone's blood on her body did not know when it had disappeared, and she looked to Demeter and stammered.
'What Obinos, do you know his true identity! That's nothing but a vile, shameless womanizer! Do you think he truly loves you? You're nothing but a plaything in his love game, he's just enjoying the hunt, my foolish daughter!"
Demeter was instantly exasperated and laughed, and it had to be said that after this goddess got rid of the love brain she once had for Zeus, her psychological analysis of this king of the gods was really word perfect.
'Mother Goddess, I ...... 'Persephone looked at the furious Demeter, a small face white, and immediately dared not say anything more.
'Your Highness Demeter, you will scare Her Highness Persephone like this, why don't you go out and calm down for a while, let's have a good chat with her and make it clear to her what kind of deception she has actually encountered."
The bright-eyed Goddess of Wisdom Athena hastily spoke out to dissuade Demeter and said.
'......" Demeter looked to the two powerful goddesses in front of her who had always remained single, perhaps their words would persuade Persephone more than her own. 'Well, you guys do more to help me persuade her not to be swept away by that vain love."
'Athena, it's best to help me persuade Persephone to make a vow to become a virgin goddess like you.'
Hearing the heartfelt voice that Demeter transmitted Athena raised her eyebrows slightly and did not respond.
Demeter got up and headed out of the cave, leaving space for the three goddesses.
Hebe and Athena looked over to Persephone who was sobbing with her head bowed, the bright eyed Goddess of Wisdom sighed and quietly opened her domain, 'Goddess of Spring and Seed, Persephone, I have opened my domain, now Demeter can no longer hear our conversation, lift your head, your heart is not as hamstrung as you make it out to be. "
As the Goddess of Wisdom, Athena was able to sense that underneath Persephone's weeping exterior, an extremely calm and rational heart.
'...... Worthy of being the Goddess of Wisdom Athena, a disguise that even my Mother Goddess could not detect was not able to hide from your eyes." Persephone raised her head, the look of panic and helplessness had long since faded from her face, and there was only calmness and a faint melancholy.
