The Story of Hades
When I opened my eyes again on the 21st century Earth, which I thought was dead, I found myself in another world full of dreams and hope.
No, actually, I just fell to the ground naked and rolled around.
While I was wondering what on earth was going on, someone shouted at ‘us’.
“Brothers, sisters. Let’s grab our weapons and fight! Before that crazy father swallows us again!”
A blond-haired man holds a sharp knife and chatters around the crowd.
On the floor were the knives the man had thrown, and the naked perverts around me were picking up their weapons one by one.
“Thank you, youngest! You almost got trapped in your father’s stomach forever!”
“Swallowing your own children as soon as they are born? Is that what a father should do to his children?”
A 20-something pervert with blue hair suddenly swung a knife at the ‘father’.
He was a man who displayed unstoppable and unfilial behavior, even attempting to kill his own father, but the perverts around him also agreed with him.
“This time it won’t be easy!”
“Haat!”
‘Father’, staggering as if he couldn’t come to his senses due to a hangover, glared at us fiercely.
But how can a person be stabbed by a sword and still be unscathed?
As I watched their fight, I felt something distinctly strange.
Everyone was moving at incredible speeds, so the ground was a mess, and the loud noise of weapons clashing echoed, but that was a second thought…
“Ugh… You dare to rebel against this Cronus! And Metis! How could you betray me!”
That fight, that movement, I can see it all with my own eyes.
Normal human vision cannot see such a superhuman fight.
He would have already died from being hit by the flying debris as if he was being blown up by an explosion.
“Brother behind you, please fight too! We’ll be pushed back at this rate!”
“Eww!”
Kakang! Kang!
First of all, whether I was reincarnated as a superhuman or a monster, it seemed like my ‘father’ had no intention of leaving me alone.
As soon as that thought crossed my mind, I picked up the spear on the floor and threw it with all my might.
Swoosh- Phew!
“Ugh! These guys!”
“Okay, it hit Dad right in the arm!”
I’m sorry, Father. But since you’re attacking me too, I’ll stop…
‘Father’ quickly pulls out the spear stuck in his arm and mutters something.
“Time!”
“Ugh… my body…”
“Do you think we’re going to give up like this?!”
My whole body becomes stiff.
The invisible energy that spreads from my father twists the world as it pleases.
For a moment, we all resisted with all our might, and time, which had been flowing strangely, returned to its original state.
When he felt his body moving normally again and everyone continued their unfilial behavior, the father, unable to bear it any longer, flew into the sky and escaped.
“Whew… Are you done?”
“If I hadn’t been the youngest, I would have been in real trouble.”
“It’s all thanks to my mother. She gave my father a rock to swallow for me.”
“Is that it? When the rock fell into my stomach, I thought my father was crazy.”
After the battle, exhausted people collapse on the ground.
We were all gasping for breath on the ground when the blond-haired young man spoke.
“I am Zeus, the last child born to my mother. What are your brothers and sisters’ names…?”
“Hmm. I named him Poseidon.”
“I am Hera, thanks to you we all survived. Thank you.”
A blue-haired man who introduces himself as Poseidon and a woman who calls herself Hera.
Could this be Greco-Roman mythology? Then the father from before was Cronus?
“Call me Hestia.”
“….I am Demeter.”
After the introductions were over, everyone looked at me.
And then I realized what I should say.
In Greek and Roman mythology, one of the six brothers of Zeus, ruler of the underworld.
“Hades.”
That was my name.
* * *
I finished the story by roughly adapting it, leaving out only the events of the previous life.
“So what happened? Please tell me the story of how Zeus became the god and founded Olympus!”
Persephone, the goddess of spring and seeds, looked at me with an excited expression and cried out cutely.
But you don’t plan on going back? Demeter will be worried.
“Ugh, not for the time being! Mom is always overprotective.”
The goddess of spring and seeds had a splendid beauty and pure divine powers that did not seem at all suitable for the underworld.
When I see such a cute nephew playing in this dark afterlife, I feel cognitive dissonance.

I think it would be best to send it back now before Demeter gets angry…
“No! I don’t want to go!”
Nephew, please keep your dignity as a goddess.
How could a goddess in charge of one of the four seasons do that?
Of course, I knew that he was acting like this in front of me, a relative and one of the three gods.
If I were to show this to a human, they would probably just curse me without asking any questions.
When I was little, I would say “yes, yeos” to the baby because he was cute.
How did Demeter educate you? Okay, I got it.
“Hehehe. Thank you, Uncle Hades!”
If you keep talking until you’re tired, you’ll probably get tired of it and go back home.
* * *
To our surprise, we were gods.
Not a metaphor, but a real god from the mythical era.
They are also the children of Cronus, the god of agriculture and time who ruled the world, and Rhea, the mother goddess of the Earth.
I put some strength into my legs and jumped into the sky.
I felt like I had become a hero like Superman, and my body quickly flew upward.
A clear, open sky greets me, and the surrounding air is hastily pushed away.
As I climbed a little further, I saw a cloud and I sat down carefully on it.
Aren’t you out of breath? How can you sit on a cloud?
It’s all thanks to divine power. The supernatural power that my mother in this life… Leah taught me.
The immense power that was endlessly surging within me moved smoothly as if I had been handling it my entire life.
That’s natural, since the race isn’t human.
“Hades, have you found anything up there? Or maybe one of your father’s men who came out to spy?”
Poseidon’s voice is heard shouting from beneath the ground.
I didn’t find anything, but I wanted to enjoy the scenery, so I replied appropriately and looked around.
Around me, fluffy white clouds float in groups.
Under the sky, a vast forest and river captured my eyes like a landscape painting.
This overwhelming sense of omnipotence as you look down on the lower world from high above.
For a moment, I was overcome with the illusion that the whole world was mine, and then I raised my head.
Even higher up, countless stars were making their presence felt among the Milky Way.
As I widened my field of vision, densely layered black silk filled my pupils, and an exclamation of admiration naturally flowed from my mouth.
Ahhh… this world.
It’s so crazy beautiful.
* * *
Until then, I didn’t really have any intention of fighting the Titans, but after looking at the sky, I started to get greedy.
I just wanted to live in this world for a long time, enjoy it, and enjoy the air.
To do that, the Titans were an obstacle to me.
Perhaps the other gods at that time had similar thoughts to me.
“Wow… Well, sometimes I look up at the higher places of Olympus and it’s really beautiful..”
So I fought with my father.
Because I didn’t want to let go of this world that felt like it was in my hands.
There were many things I didn’t know about Greek and Roman mythology, but there were also parts I remembered.
For example, the fact that the Hecatoncheires, who had a hundred hands, were on our side.
Thanks to this, as the war dragged on, he was not surprised when Zeus brought the three Cyclops brothers and the Hecatoncheires.
It was quite a surprise when I received Kynee, a transparent helmet that could hide me from any god.
Anyway, I, who wrote Quine, hid all the weapons of the Titans.
“The weapon! The weapon is gone! This is ridiculous, who would dare to sneak into Mount Othrys!”
Zeus swung his lightning bolt, which he named Astraphe, and gave the Titans a taste of intense blindness.
“Close your eyes, Hera!”
“Hot. Why are you talking while grabbing my waist!”
Kwarrurung! Flash!
Poseidon swung his trident, the Triaina (Trident), causing a magnitude 10.0 earthquake.
“Eww!”
“I… I can’t stand!”
In this way, we won the war by mercilessly beating down the blind men who had fallen unarmed.
Then, surely, an era of peace and glory should have begun…
“Hades! Thanatos, the god of death, has gone missing, and those who come to the underworld have disappeared!”
“Just like Apollo, he who creates heavenly music must meet Hades.”
“A muscular man, or rather a demigod, is coming this way after beating up the boatman Charon!”
“Demeter has sent a letter demanding that Persephone be returned to her. If she is not returned, the earth will dry up…”
I never thought I’d become the manager of a civil affairs office where all kinds of crazy people run wild.
Persephone quietly rises from her seat when she hears the commotion outside.
Yeah, I guess you’ll run away quietly before your mom gets here.
“Uh.. um.. then Uncle Hades, it seems you’re busy with work, so I’ll take my leave now.. hehe..”
Go away and don’t come back again.
