King of Underworld - Chapter 127

Ring of Youth

The Ring of Youth that I received while helping Poseidon and Ares with their trial last time.

A sacred item with the same effect as Harmonia’s necklace.

But it wasn’t of much use to me.

It was an item that kept a mortal youthful until death, but it was of no use to a god who was already immortal.

In the afterlife, where only the dead can go, there were no mortals who needed the power of this ring.

There are some pretty and precious jewels in it, but I have more than enough of these in my warehouse.

I am the god of wealth. I have an abundance of jewels, gold coins, and enchanted treasures.

You can tell just by looking at the things rolling around on my desk.

If it was something really important or valuable, it would have been stored in a warehouse in the underworld or something like that.

“You’re talking about the item you received in exchange for helping with the trial. Are you thinking of proposing to the goddess you love by giving it to her?”

“…It would be appropriate for a proposal. The ring itself is beautiful and is an excellent item that contains power.”

“Really? Haha…”

However, immediately after the goddess Mnemosyne visited, the value of this ring skyrocketed.

The value of a thing is determined by those who want it.

I don’t know what story you’re spreading, but at some point the gods started to change a little.

Just this morning, didn’t the god Hypnos say, “Haven’t you given me the ring yet?”

When I asked what he meant, he said something like, “Tsk, not yet. Eww…” and left.

“Hmm. Hmm. My fingers have been feeling empty lately.”

“Goddess Styx?”

“It would be nice if something was inserted…”

Didn’t the Goddess Styx, whom we met by chance, emphasize that her fingers were empty?

“Lord Hades! Take this! It’s a ring made of a rose that never withers!”

“Uh… Take care.”

“By the way, I like rings too!”

Persephone gave me a ring made of flowers and showed me her hand…

The Ring of Youth is an item that the gods have no use for, so why do they all covet it?

Just looking at the goddess Lethe, who is in front of me right now, touching her fingers with an expression of longing for something…

“What did the goddess Mnemosyne say about the Ring of Youth?”

“Huh…? No… Hehe. I know everything…”

“…?”

The gaze of the goddess sitting next to me and staring blankly at my profile is sharp.

Of course, I don’t really need that youth ring, so I can give it to you if you ask…

“Does this ring please the goddesses? If necessary, you can ask Hephaestus to make a similar ring.”

“That’s not it… Haa. When Hades proposed and gave me the ring, he said it would be like that… Hmph!”

“…The Goddess of Memory spread such a rumor.”

There seem to be a lot of goddesses that I’m aiming for.

* * *

Now that it’s come to this, should I use this ring when proposing?

But if you were to propose, who would you propose to?

Goddess Styx or Goddess Lethe, who have helped me since the Titanomachy?

Mente, who came to the afterlife to remind me of mint and to invite me?

Or perhaps Persephone, who still periodically supplies strength to the training camp of the underworld?

“Hades? Why are you blankly staring again…”

All goddesses are beautiful and each has their own charm.

Concubines are not a big deal for a god. But Zeus and Poseidon both have legal wives…

Marriage. Marriage. Should I do it too?

The thoughts that had been running wildly soon reached the goddess Lethe.

Pale, beautiful skin and a slightly flushed face. A beauty that would make people call her a noble princess.

She noticed my gaze and slowly moved closer to me.

“Heh… Are you noticing my beauty now? There are no other goddesses around… Do you want to give me a ring…”

A silver-haired goddess who closes her eyes slightly and holds out her right hand.

I stroked her soft hand and then quickly let go.

“ah…”

“I’m sorry, but I think it’s premature to think about marriage.”

It’s not that I don’t like her.

The goddesses are giving me so much love, but I have to be careful at times like these.

Internal conflict is always a love issue. I am dating four goddesses at the same time… but I am not married yet.

If you have the will to marry, would you propose to all the goddesses? Or…

“My mind is too confused to decide on just one.”

“Phew… I don’t think anyone would mind if I just got drunk…”

As I was smiling awkwardly at the sincere complaint, the goddess changed the subject.

Maybe they are being considerate and waiting for me. We should all get together later and talk about it.

“This time, the task given to the human hero, Hercules, is to bring Triton’s conch.”

“This was probably his fourth task. The last one was to capture the golden-horned doe of Artemis.”

Hercules was gradually becoming recognized as a hero of prophecy among the gods.

Even if we just look at his accomplishments one by one, they would be enough to make him a great hero, and his powers were comparable to those of a god.

Hera now seems to have changed her mind and decided to torture him to death rather than kill him.

There was a trend of giving tasks that were difficult to solve by force alone.

Well, I’ve already dealt with the Nemean Lion, Hydra, Chrysaor, and Lamia…

“That conch must be something that Triton treasures, but Hera is a difficult task…”

A powerful magic-filled conch is one of the treasures of the sea.

Last time I went to the Sea Palace, he had used that black and white sky to summon the seahorses.

The task is to bring back the conch, which has the power to control and call upon sea creatures.

Inevitably, in order to meet Triton, you must first go into the sea.

I’m already at the bottom of the sea, so if I keep doing this, won’t I end up in the afterlife later?

* * *

The third task was to capture the deer of Artemis and bring it to Hera’s temple.

And Hercules was immediately given his fourth task.

“The next task is to bring the conch of Triton, the enemy of the sea.”

“It’s under the sea…”

Hercules’ expression crumpled slightly.

If it’s Triton, he’s the eldest son of Poseidon, the god of the sea. In other words, he’s a god.

It’s a bit difficult to bring the divine water or possessions of a god…

How awkward it was to bring back the doe of Artemis, a task he had just completed.

It wasn’t difficult to catch the quickly fleeing Shinsoo.

After chasing a doe for about two days, I got tired and collapsed.

But right after that, the goddess who appeared with the shining moonlight was the problem.

A faintly shining halo. A chilling beauty. The goddess of the moon, holding a bow in one hand, spoke to him as she pointed.

“You dare touch my Taigete? Do you want to die here, despite Hera’s work and all?”

“Hmm. Goddess of the Moon, I apologize for subduing your divine beast. However, could you take it to Hera’s temple for a moment and then return it to me?”

The goddess Artemis, who was very angry, looked down at him for a moment while he spoke with his head down.

I also saw my own deer, which seemed to be just tired, without any injuries.

The maiden thought about something, then answered him.

“If you want to take a doe, you must offer a sacrifice. But it must be something that pleases me.”

Hercules quickly rolled his head.

The goddess Artemis is the goddess of the moon and the hunt, so wouldn’t it be okay to offer items or game that would help with hunting?

then…

“When I slay the Nemean lion pride, I will offer the skins of the lions born to Typhon’s children.”

“…That should be enough. However, there should be no injuries on the deer like now.”

At least Artemis’ doe managed to escape from the ground.

Triton, son of Poseidon, wasn’t he in the sea, how on earth should I meet him?

No matter how strong his body is, unless he is a god,

If I fall into the water and suffocate, I’ll die… I need to ask for help from those I know.

Thinking so, Hercules went to see Theidamas, king of the Dryopes.

“Hahaha! Hercules! The great hero has finally accepted my invitation!”

“…hello.”

“I sent you so many invitations hoping to hear your tales of bravery, but I’m a little disappointed that you’re only coming now. Hahaha!”

Theodamas is one of many who hear of his exploits and seek to recruit him to their country.

That is why Hercules was welcomed with great hospitality.

“More than that. I have one question.”

“Please feel free to ask me anything you want.”

“I need to meet Triton, son of Poseidon, for a task, and I was wondering if there is a way to do so.”

After all, a person in a high position might know a little more than a vagabond.

Especially if King Theodamas had a nymph as his concubine.

“Well… I wonder if Menodiche knows. I’ll introduce you to her after the banquet.”

“But to take a nymph as a concubine? That is amazing.”

“It doesn’t end with a one-night stand? Of course not. If you commit adultery, you will be punished by the goddess Hera or Pluto.”

King Theodamas laughed heartily and drank his wine.

While the banquet was in full swing, a man dressed in fancy clothes entered the banquet hall.

“Father, is this Hercules?”

“Hmm? Hylas? You weren’t invited to the banquet. What brings you here?”

“I also came here to hear the tale of the great hero’s bravery!”

The sight of the prince with shining eyes looking at Hercules,

He certainly had the attitude of a boy who admired a great hero.
