(alright!)
Surprisingly, Kay's meeting with Aphrodite went unexpectedly smoothly. The goddess did not make any demands and readily agreed to Kay's request.
This made Kai stunned for a while. Did Aphrodite change her personality? No, should I say, did the gods of the Olympian pantheon change their personality?
You have to know that these guys are petty by nature. Once provoked, they will definitely retaliate in the most brutal way, with basically no exceptions.
For example, Apollo, who has the brightest image among the Olympian gods, is also very stingy.
Apollo, the sun god, is the son of Zeus, the king of gods, and the most dazzling male god on Mount Olympus. He is handsome, well-built, and talented. He is proficient in prophecy, music, medicine, archery, etc. Countless girls are attracted by his robes. Once, he fell in love with a priestess in his temple, the beautiful Trojan princess Cassandra. In order to win her heart, Apollo gave Cassandra the ability to predict.
Who would have thought that this time Apollo would suffer a Waterloo in the love field. Cassandra still could not accept Apollo's love and rejected this invincible sun god. Apollo, angry and humiliated, cursed Cassandra, saying that although she could predict the future, no one around her would believe what she said. From then on, Cassandra was regarded as a mad woman by her relatives, because every time she predicted an impending disaster, she was considered mentally ill. Cassandra could only watch the tragedy happen again and again in pain.
When the Greeks besieged Troy, Cassandra warned people that Troy would soon fall, but no one was willing to believe her prediction. She could only do nothing and ended up being a prisoner of war, where she soon died. Cassandra's tragedy stemmed from the revenge of the sun god Apollo - what you can't get, you destroy. Rather than being hurt by rejection, Apollo believed that his dignity was inviolable. His "love" for Cassandra contained the meaning of charity, and it was the favor of the superior to the inferior. Therefore, the "ignorant" rejection of the other party made him angry and directly took severe revenge. From the beginning, the balance of love was destined to tilt to one side, and the unequal status determined that the only unlucky one was Cassandra, the weak one.
You must know that this is Apollo, the Apollo who symbolizes light.
He is the most positive god among all the gods. If even he is like this, don't count on other gods.
The main point of the Olympian gods is to be close to the people. They have all the problems that mortals have, but with double the problems. This has always proved Kai's theory that the so-called gods are nothing special, they are just a group of people who have gained great power!
They are not much superior to so-called mortals.
The most obvious example is... there is no reproductive isolation between gods and humans at all!
This has been true from ancient times to the present, from West to East.
Without reproductive isolation, how can you say they are two species? (In superhero comics, there are often hybrid offsprings of aliens and humans... Ever since I took biology classes in junior high school, I have always suspected... Do these guys who draw comics not know about reproductive isolation? It is absolutely impossible for alien creatures and earth creatures to have offspring, their evolutionary trees are so different! They are not the same species at the root, how did they combine? From a probability perspective, the success rate of humans and pigs having children is much higher than that of humans and aliens having children!)
Gods are not that noble, and are even more terrifying than mortals.
Gods are not perfect either, they are lustful, vengeful, weak...
Therefore, Kai was not used to Aphrodite's behavior. He was ready to lose his kidneys, but in the end, everything was proposed to him by others.
Here we have to talk about Kai's prejudice against Aphrodite.
Aphrodite is a perfect woman. Her beauty is like the light of day, her pink cheeks are like peach blossoms, her long golden curly hair is shining, and her eyes seem to contain the blue sea. In contrast to the three goddesses of chastity, Aphrodite firmly believes in the motto "I am the master of my body" and has more or less relationship with the gods of Olympus. Nietzsche said: Will is the essence of life. In Greek mythology, Aphrodite is the goddess of love and beauty, representing the aesthetic value of the Greek era. Under her charming appearance, Aphrodite presents a complex personality because of love and beauty. Among the gods, she has the power to drive love, but she is as weak as a girl and has no determination to resist. But this is human nature. Nietzsche expects the strong will to replace the status of "God" with passion, desire, wildness, activity and fighting. Aphrodite only did the former, but not the latter. She wanted to vent her desires and wanted to fight but was afraid of fighting.
At the same time, she is not as superficial as imagined.
Although she is not loyal, she is serious about relationships. She is sincere to every one of her lovers... Well, it is a typical quote from a scumbag. In reality, scumbags may just say it casually, but Aphrodite is not. She is the god of love. Love is uncontrollable. You can't control who you fall in love with. This is also the reason why Aphrodite keeps falling in love with other people. At the same time, love is fierce and desperate.
So even after Aphrodite was caught by Hephaestus with a golden net and was ashamed in front of the gods, she did not restrain herself because of the "golden net" incident. Soon she cheated on Poseidon, the god of the sea, Hermes, the god of commerce, Adonis, the handsome god, and Anchises, a mortal. Moreover, Aphrodite was not just playing a one-night stand, she was serious, because she gave birth to children for the above men, leaving irrefutable evidence.
Therefore, love summarized from Aphrodite's perspective can be summed up in two words: deception and infidelity.
Love comes quickly and goes just as fast!
Aphrodite believes that love is like this, with both good and bad moments. Nothing is constant, and love is always unpredictable!
In Kay's view, Aphrodite is a sexual goddess who wants to go to bed with a man when she sees him. But in fact, for Aphrodite, sexual desire has never been everything. It is just a means. Love is what she truly enjoys.
No one can catch love. It will come when it is time to come, and it will go without hesitation when it is time to go.
This is Aphrodite.
Aphrodite would not simply go to bed with Kai. That was not in line with Aphrodite's aesthetics.
She had a better plan.
"Okay, so how do we get into the City of the Almighty?"
Kai didn't know what Aphrodite was up to, but he couldn't care less about it now. As long as the kidneys were saved, it would be good. Dragon bone extract was so precious, so it was better not to waste it on growing kidneys. The same was true for the golden apple, which was very precious.
Hera was in charge of the golden apples, but the output of these was very low.
Hera couldn't just give Kai food.
Those things are basically counted.
Even Hera couldn't embezzle other people's shares without any benefit.
This is one of the reasons why Hera has such a unique position, in charge of the share of the golden apple. But if she arbitrarily cancels the share of others, she will not be able to convince the public.
Aphrodite found Kai's vaguely uneasy look particularly pleasing to the eye. Of course she wanted to spend a good night with Kai, but casually going to bed with him did not conform to her aesthetics. Although she was the patron saint of prostitutes, it did not mean that she herself was a prostitute.
She has her own persistence.
"My son, Eros, he is in the City of the Almighty."
Eros is a god with a very vague position in mythology. He is the god of love.
At the same time, the origin of his name is also very ancient. He has the same name as one of the oldest gods in the Olympian pantheon.
Like all pantheons, the Olympian pantheon has its own creation myth.
These gods are very addicted to this. Although everyone knows that this thing is fake, each god system still believes in it and doesn’t know what’s wrong.
Legend has it that at the beginning of the universe, Chaos, the god of chaos, was the only one. He was a boundless space with nothing in it. Chaos himself had the ability to reproduce life and gave birth to Gaia, the mother of the earth, Tartarus, the god of the underworld, Erebus, the god of darkness, and Nyx, the goddess of night. The world began.
The world began with Chaos, the god of chaos, vast and unfathomable, a tangible space that later contained everything that made up the universe. After Chaos, Gaia, the goddess of the earth, the eternal and unshakable supporter, and Eros, the omnipotent creator, the driving force of development and evolution, who glued all elements together and thus became the origin of the world of life.
Eros is the original god of love, representing love, fertility and sexual desire. It is he who gave birth to the fertility and love of the gods, and he is the embodiment of all love.
He represents the most primitive impulse. Because of him, the gods have the urge to reproduce, and thus all things in the world are born.
Aphrodite gave her child this name, apparently to pay tribute to the original creator god.
Eros is the child of Aphrodite and Ares.
They are also Aphrodite's favorite children. The Pisces in the constellation mythology refers to them. Legend has it that at a banquet of the gods, the king of monsters Typhon suddenly appeared, and scared the gods to flee everywhere. At this time, Aphrodite found that her son Eros was missing. She nervously looked for him everywhere, and later found Eros trembling with fear under the piano. In order to prevent Eros from being separated from her again, Aphrodite tied their feet together with a rope, and then transformed them into two fish and jumped into the Nile River to escape. In order to commemorate this event, Zeus raised the two fishes into the sky in this posture of being connected by their tails and never separated, and turned them into Pisces. In addition to representing love and beauty, it also symbolizes the combination of spirit and body.
Of course, when it comes to this, many people may still be a little confused. Who the hell is this?
But if you say his other name, I believe many people will suddenly understand.
He is Cupid!
Cupid is his Roman name. Of course, the Olympian gods didn't care much about their Roman names, and they didn't even know they had them. After all, Roman mythology appeared long after they left Earth.
But to people on Earth, Cupid is very famous.
He's the little kid holding a bow and arrow. Whenever you see this image, it's basically him.
Eros has a pair of wings on his back that allow him to fly freely. He has a self-made bow, love arrows, and breakup arrows. Shooting the love arrows can make the person who is shot fall in love with the things that Eros specifies, while shooting the breakup arrows can make the person who is shot give up the things that Eros specifies. Eros has the ability to fly and decide what others like.
Eros created the protection of love, which can maintain the correct progress of love. Therefore, Eros is the god of love, the embodiment of love and hobbies.
Eros is very popular among the gods because he represents beauty and no one can refuse him. At the same time, he has a very nice personality, likes to help others, and has no bad rumors about him.
After the Pantheon was established, this naked kid was like a duck in water. He was even more popular than Hermes. (Hermes is one of the twelve main gods of Olympus, a messenger of the gods, mainly serving Zeus, the son of Zeus and Maia. He is the god of commercial activities, markets, tourism, transportation, travelers and thieves, and the ferryman of the underworld. He is agile and graceful, wearing winged sandals, a low-crowned hat with wings on his head, and holding a golden magic wand with two snakes coiled around it. He is very humorous and witty, so he is very popular. Except for the god of war Ares, basically no gods particularly dislike him. Even Hera is kind to him... Of course, this does not change the fact that Hera hates his mother very much)
So if you want to sneak into the Pantheon, there will be no problem finding that little brat.
Although this little guy is more than 10,000 years old, he still wanders around every day in the image of a little kid. No one will be wary of a child, so Cupid has always been the smuggling boss of the Pantheon... That's right, the god of love Cupid is engaged in smuggling... Isn't it magical?
Anyway, Kai was completely dumbfounded after hearing this.
"Are you sure?" Kai had never dealt with Eros and really didn't know what he was like.
"Of course!" Aphrodite said affirmatively, "But you have to take me with you, otherwise Eros will not trust you. You know, in this business, the most important thing is trust. Without trust, no matter how great the benefits are, they will only lead to disasters."
Kai grinned, not knowing how to comment.
No wonder Odin looks down on these guys in the Pantheon. Look at what a mess this is. Cupid, the god of love, doesn't want to be a matchmaker, but instead starts smuggling.
"By the way, why is there smuggling in the City of Almighty?"
Kai tried to endure it again and again, but he couldn't bear it anymore.
Aphrodite looked at Kai strangely and said, "Please, that is the Almighty City, the greatest city in the universe. There, everything is filled with divine glory. Countless believers crave the holy objects of the Pantheon, and countless believers also hope to enter the Pantheon and receive the glory of the gods. But every year only a very small number of believers are qualified to enter the Pantheon for pilgrimage. Where there is demand, there is a market!"
Damn...is this even possible?
