King of Underworld - Chapter 79

The Story of Bellerophon – (2)

When I left Elysium with Pegasus and returned to the citadel, the goddess Styx welcomed me.

You took advantage of my absence to take care of some urgent matters and then take a short break.

“You’re here now, Hades… You brought Pegasus.”

Purruk!

Some may think that this is an overstep of authority, but

It was I who granted the power to the Goddess Styx as a token of my gratitude for her help in the war against the Titans.

That’s why, often times, when I was not in the afterlife, the goddess would have the final say.

However, if there were issues that were difficult to judge on the sole discretion of the Goddess, she would put them on hold for a while and wait for me.

“Now all I have to do is pass this on to the hero. I’m thinking of asking Hermes or Athena…”

“Shall I send a letter to Olympus?”

“Yes, please.”

After saying that, I was about to return to where I was when the sight of the goddess Styx caught my eye.

Long black hair and blue eyes that look tired. A parchment in her hand.

When I think about it, I really owe the goddess a lot.

Long ago, during the war with the Titans… You helped me with the affairs of the underworld and supported me during my immature days.

The feel of the Styx sword tied to my waist feels somehow warm.

Including the goddess Styx, the goddess Lethe, Menthena and Persephone…

I am grateful to those who love me despite my shortcomings, but have I ever repaid them with anything worthwhile?

The goddess’s beautiful eyes were filled with trust, faith, and affection for me.

As I was quietly looking at her with complicated thoughts, the goddess snickered and said.

“Pfft. Hades. Why are you staring at me like that? Are you entranced by my beauty?”

“…Yes. You look beautiful today.”

“Yes…?! Yes, yes?! What…what did you say…”

The parchment fell from the hands of the Goddess Styx, and her face turned red up to her ears.

She raised one hand to cover her mouth, looking at a loss.

And I too opened my mouth with a slightly nervous voice.

It’s just a walk… Yeah, a reward. Something like that… It doesn’t mean anything… Maybe.

“While Pegasus is on his way to this world, would you like to travel the sky with me?”

“Ugh!… Everything… Everything… I’ll get ready and come right away! Wait here!”

Dododo… Kwajik!

The door to the audience room was caught by the feet of the goddess who had passed me by in a hurry and left a message.

Of course, some of the doors that were attached to the sturdy body of the god were broken as they were.

Looking at the slightly broken remains of the door scattered on the floor of the audience room, the thought that comes to mind is…

‘Should I change my clothes too?’

* * *

I thought she would come back soon, but…

Surprisingly, even after a lot of time had passed, the Goddess Styx did not return.

…?

At that time, I had to go out and find out if something had happened.

The door opened wide and the goddess Styx came running in with an anxious look on her face.

She was panting, her back bent, her hands on her knees, as if she had just been chased by someone.

Who could dare make the goddess Styx in the underworld so desperate?

Could it be that an all-out war with Gigas has broken out?

“Huk… Huk… Get out of here. Hades…!”

“What’s going on? Is there a war on Olympus? Or is Poseidon rebelling again?”

“That’s… heh.. no… the goddess Lethe kept following me around with a suspicious gaze, so I went around the underworld once… heh.”

“…Please have a glass of water first.”

If you listen carefully to the words of the Goddess Styx…

Goddess Lethe found Goddess Styx changing clothes in her room…

“Stix… Where are you going dressed like that..?”

“Re.. Lete?! It’s nothing!”

“Something feels fishy…”

From then on, he followed me around for a while and gave me a lot of work before I could get away.

Goddess Styx let out a small sigh as she finished her explanation.

“Ugh… How persistent Lethe is…”

“You’re wearing those clothes…”

Unlike the plain clothes she had been wearing until just now, she was wearing a chiton that exposed a lot of her chest and legs.

Her face, smeared with olive oil and honey, was shiny, and her slightly flushed ears were adorned with golden jewelry.

“…Hades.”

“…yes?”

“If you look at me like that…”

All of this, including the slightly flushed complexion, added to her beauty.

“Would you please come out with me, Goddess?”

“…! Of course.”

So I came to this world for a short time with the Goddess Styx.

Of course, I brought Pegasus too.

Heeeek!

Pegasus was running around for a while, as if he was happy to be back on earth after a long time.

I stopped the horse, climbed on its back, and held out my hand to the goddess Styx.

“Come here.”

“…yes!”

I took hold of the reins of Pegasus and mounted him, and right behind me, the goddess Styx was resting her head on my stomach.

The soft texture feels like it’s almost touching your back, adding to the awkwardness.

He commanded, stroking Pegasus’ glossy white mane.

The intelligent Cheonma born as a god will understand my will.

“Let’s go up. Up into the sky, but not quite to Olympus.”

Heeeek!

* * *

Pegasus kicks the ground and flies.

The horse’s pure white wings flapped widely, creating a breeze.

Phew-

Up, up, up again.

We can see nymphs watching us from the edge of a mountain a little distance away.

He waved his hand to hide himself from mortal eyes, then spoke to the goddess Styx, who was riding behind him.

“It’s not bad to ride a cloud or a chariot and race across the sky, but sometimes it’s nice to feel the wind on a horse. I wanted to show you this sight.”

“By the way, Hades, wasn’t this the reason you fought the Titans?”

“Yes. To be exact, it’s because of the view from the top of Olympus. This view is similar…”

Heeeek!

More and more, the clouds rose so high that they were hovering beside us. Just a little higher, and we would be on a par with the palace of Olympus.

But I had no intention of ascending to Olympus, so I pulled the reins, and Pegasus flew slowly as I wished.

Looking down, what you see is a wide plain and a city of humans that appears as numerous dots.

“I’m almost always in the afterlife… so I don’t think I’ve seen much scenery like this.”

“Now that things in the afterlife have stabilized a lot, you’ll have more free time often.”

“…Thank you. Maybe it’s because I’m with Hades that I enjoy my trip to the sky.”

I glanced back and saw the face of the Goddess Styx standing close to me, looming large.

She met my eyes and slowly closed them.

Anyone can tell what she wants.

The red and beautiful lips of a goddess. What will happen if I take this one step?

He stopped the Pegasus that was leisurely flying through the sky, turned his head, and slowly approached it.

The sound of my heartbeat growing louder was louder than Zeus’ thunder.

There was no sound of wind or birds around.

Right now, my eyes and ears are focused only on the goddess nearby.

“Hoo…”

I thought to myself, breathing hard and feeling somewhat impatient.

I’m a man too, so I don’t hate goddesses who like me.

But… can I make her happy? And not just one goddess, but many?

I knew it.

This is just my prejudice, fear, and hesitation…

At that moment, when I was hesitating in such conflict, an obviously artificial gust of wind blew in.

Wheeeeew-

“Oh my!”

“hmm?!”

Pegasus is caught in the gust of wind and staggers.

The Goddess Styx, who had her eyes closed naturally, and my body, which had been hesitating, also shook.

One hand was holding the reins, trying to control the staggering Pegasus,

The other hand was wrapped around the goddess’s waist, which looked precarious.

And… we were stuck close to the strong wind…

side.

The feeling of lips gently touching each other. The scent of sweet honey and the scent of the goddess.

A minor incident that occurred in the sky pushed me back.

The goddess, who opened her eyes to the sudden shaking, could not hide her pupils growing even bigger.

I too had no choice but to hurriedly turn my head away with a red face.

Wheeing-

It was immediately clear who had caused the sudden gust of wind.

Because I saw a male god flying by from afar, giving me a thumbs up and nodding his head.

Euros, the god of wind who brings warmth and rain.

This was the work of Eos, the son of the goddess of dawn and in charge of the east wind.

Perhaps it was passing by to blow a cool breeze on the world, and it saw us and created a suitable wind.

Are you some kind of matchmaking god?

* * *

As I was about to turn back, I met a messenger god who was flying somewhere.

Hermes looks at us riding Pegasus and speaks with a face full of curiosity.

“Huh? Aren’t you Hades, the great-uncle? And behind him, the goddess Styx?”

“…Hermes.”

“What’s going on in the sky… Ah! Were you having a good time? Oh no, I must have interrupted you. Haha!”

“……”

Goddess Styx and I were speechless.

Well, my lips still feel moist and soft…

“…Really?”

“Stop talking nonsense. I’ll give you the reins of Pegasus, so take them to the hero.”

“Huh? Ah… Thank you for lending me Pegasus.”

“I’ll release Pegasus when he lands on the ground, so you just take him to a suitable place.”

We must test whether the hero who slays the Chimera can handle Pegasus.

If he can hold the reins and stand firm on Pegasus, I’d be happy to lend him one.

“Yes, I was thinking about that too. But… what if you two really…”

“…it’s noisy.”

I’m telling you, you’re just being quick-witted for no reason.
