Chapter 38 – Escape, to Tartarus (4)
Under the protection of the sea goddess Thetis and her daughter Metis.
We have been able to stay for a while in the land managed by Gaia.
‘For a while’.
“Meet the Earthmother and mother of all life.”
In the middle of the temple.
I bowed down in front of the blonde goddess who was waiting for me in a pure white dress.
Gaia.
Perhaps this is actually the first time seeing it ‘as it is’.
She would be ashamed if I remembered that I sucked at her breast, even briefly, when she was a baby, so I tried to treat her obediently as my helper.
“Yes. Nice to meet you, my true hero.”
Onetime.
Her hero would have been her child Kronos.
However, Cronus threw the children of Gaia, following Uranus, into the abyss of Tartarus.
Of course, I will be full of anger towards Cronus, but I have no choice but to treat me as a hero, who doesn’t look bad right now.
‘I don’t intend to end up in Tartarus either.’
Gaia’s children, that is to say, the true life form ‘Gigantes’, not the Golem Gigas – I’ll judge based on the situation – I don’t intend to stop them from leaving Tartarus forever.
Gigantes are also victims of Cronus, and will become our helpers.
I have no intention of becoming like Uranus and Cronus.
However, if they cause great damage to the realm of the gods or the lands we need to rule, then we will take appropriate action.
Until then, no special measures will be taken against them, but rather, we will have to enlist their help.
“Let’s hug one more time.”
Gaia opened her arms.
I also went up to her and hugged her Gaia.
Mungle.
Motherhood more than Leah reached my chest.
Gaia closed her eyes and buried her face in my chest, and I secretly grabbed Gaia’s buttocks.
‘I’m glad it’s a temple.’
Who dares to look at God from behind?
There was no one behind Gaia, and thanks to that, I was able to touch Gaia’s luscious ass.
And in the first place, now, there was no one to see us.
Her sister and Leah stayed in their respective rooms for a while to rest, and Gaia called me to the temple separately.
Of course now is not the time to do ‘it’.
“…You’ve grown really well.”
Gaia also rubbed her body, pressing her lower abdomen against mine.
Looking from behind, we can only feel affection, but our reality was just a sign of strangeness.
“This is all thanks to Gaia-sama’s blessing.”
“Yes, even though it was difficult, congratulations on successfully completing the task. And… Congratulations on coming all the way here while avoiding Cronus.”
“I received help from Thetis.”
“…Thetis’ daughter, you said you would marry her nymph?”
Gaia fell away from me and wept her eyes.
“She’s sure the kid is smart and wise. But… Is there a reason you took her as his wife?”
“There is only one reason.”
“What is it? Wisdom to come up with a secret plan to give the main god a shot? If he’s not, then is your body the way you are? If he’s not, is your mother Thetis?”
“Because I love you. I love you.”
“…”
Gaia didn’t say anything.
Instead, he pulled my face and looked carefully into my eyes.
“…There is no trace of that.”
“A trace?”
“It is nothing.”
Do you react to the word love as if you are addicted to something strange?
No matter how much I don’t know mythology, I know that.
Ero-tsu!
Eros, the son of Aphrodite and also known as ‘Cupid’.
It is said that with his arrows he falls in love that can destroy even the gods.
Gaia’s doubts were probably because of her worry that the effects that followed were acting on me, and that I had fallen in love with Metis and promised to marry Metis because I had been struck by Cupid’s arrow for no reason.
Absolutely not.
There are some Metis women who can greet and have sex with their wives without any objection, but it is because Metis herself was a beauty who sniped my taste.
I want to live my whole life with this woman.
If it’s this woman, I think I’ll understand enough to talk about ‘modern knowledge’.
In the process of sex, compatibility was second only to Hera, so she was the best bride as long as she didn’t have any objection to marriage.
‘It’s worse than anything.’
A woman who would be able to talk about modern things later has a natural talent for sex and looks good at pregnancy?
Cheap.
She is a woman who must be married.
“…Let’s talk about the Metis later.”
“Are you saying something that other people shouldn’t hear?”
“Yes. The day you defeat Cronus and become the king of the gods, I will ask you then.”
“…If I marry Metis and have a child, will that child become like Cronus and me?”
“!!”
Gaia’s expression turned pale.
The son usurps the father’s place and rises to a higher position.
If I am a child of such a prophecy, how should I look at my child?
“…Well, to be honest, I don’t have much greed for the new throne. To be precise, after I conquer the world, I will hand down the king’s seat to my son when I reach a level of peace. “
“You…”
“But if my children try to take my ‘wife’ away, I will take it seriously.”
This is sincere.
Throne? Shenyang or usurpation, it doesn’t matter.
But if I don’t know anything else, I can’t forgive it for touching my ‘wife(s)’, my women.
“I will not forgive anyone who touches my woman, even a child.”
“…Didn’t you already do that?”
“That’s a different story. I didn’t steal my father’s woman. I just saved his wife from domestic violence.”
“I mean… Ha ha.”
Gaia scratched her head and sighed.
“…Don’t worry, it’s not a prophecy that your son will steal your woman.”
“That’s it. Hehe, well… To be honest, if I lost the throne I won against Cronus, I would feel a little sick to my stomach, but wouldn’t it be nice to build a temple with my wife and have fun and be happy? Even in a shabby cave, if the two of us are together, happiness is There are plenty of them.”
“…Really, you’re a different child.”
Every time in a place full of olive oil, the freshness of kimchi lingers, so of course it feels different.
It’s not that I’m above-the-top.
It’s because the Greeks are only rare rapists, and I was also a guy who was a man.
“…Then, for that happiness, there is a place you must go first. I wanted to raise you safely here, but you have already grown up. And now this place is too dangerous for you.”
“Yes?”
“You are well aware that Kronos has been trying to attack this place since before. Since you guys fled from Crete, Cronus will attack this place even more fiercely.”
“…Even if Gaia-sama can protect us, the people below her will be dissatisfied.”
At my words, Gaia smiled bitterly and nodded.
No matter how much everyone says they are related by blood inherited from Gaia, blood ties sometimes lose their meaning in front of the mighty power that Cronos can see.
Betrayal.
If not Gaia, those under Gaia can betray us.
Fear and fear, the wealth and glory of betraying Gaia and kidnapping and offering Rhea and her younger siblings to Cronus.
“Perhaps… There will be those who will capture their younger siblings and present them to Kronos, then ask them to marry this woman.”
“It’s embarrassing, but that’s right. The Greeks… Are all like that.”
Abducting and raping a woman and taking her as a wife is not uncommon in Greece.
In this land where Greek men don’t know what to do, the only thing I can trust is my family.
Or if you are a person who cannot betray me or my family and have received great grace!
-Goddess Gaia has numerous children from her relationship with her with Uranus. There are titan gods, but there are also cases where you are not a child born with a stomach ache.
According to Metis wisdom, Gaia created countless lives from the blood shed when Uranus’ genitals were cut off.
It is not that she was directly pregnant, but that she transformed the land into a new life by using it as a womb.
As a result, it was said that there were many cases in which the appearance of a ‘monster’ was quite different from that of ordinary gods and titans.
-You need their help to win against Kronos. Especially if you’re looking for trustworthy people…Those who have been greatly damaged by Cronus. We must rescue them from Tartarus.
Those imprisoned in Tartarus.
Save them and use them as our ‘power’.
“I have to leave for hell. Will it be all right?”
“Yes. But I will not go alone. I will go with my younger siblings. So…”
I took Gaia’s hands her.
“My mother and my wife, Amalthea, please take good care of me, Lady Gaia.”
“…Of course. Believe me and go. Those children are also my children, so if you take this with you, they will believe that they are the ones I sent.”
Gaia passed three small marbles into my hand.
Slightly larger than an egg, it had the same beauty as a jewel, and Gaia wove the jewel like a necklace using threads like plant stems and hung it around my neck.
“This will be the proof.”
“Thank you, Gaia-sama. Then… I’ll be on my way.”
“For a moment.”
Gaia grabbed my wrist.
“…There is a small room inside the temple. Wait there for a while. Amalthea will be waiting for you.”
“…Foot.”
I held Gaia’s trembling hand and whispered softly.
“As long as it’s a room where no one will notice… Wouldn’t it be okay if it wasn’t Amalthea?”
“…”
Gaia didn’t say anything.
Just.
“…That’s later.”
Leaving space behind, she disappeared inside the temple.
* * *
“… Ha.”
Zeus left the temple.
Alone in bed, Amalthea lamented as she felt the fullness of life in her stomach.
“Why such a man…”
“Hey… Gaia-sama…”
Amalthea was lying next to Amalthea.
She also contained the same life in her belly.
“Right now… He’s making a scary face.”
“…Whoops, it’s nothing.”
Gaia, who had transformed into Amalthea, smiled while stroking Amalthea’s cheek.
“If… If it were to open a new horizon, it would have to be Zeus, right?”
“Yes, yes. Is…Isn’t it?”
“Yes. That should be it…”
Gaia’s eyes her, stroking Amalthea’s cheek her, were sunken.
