69. The best candidate
The god of wine appeared again in the giant river of Scamander, the mermaid guard was no longer surprised, he was the son-in-law of the god of the river, and it was nothing to come and see his father-in-law and mother-in-law, thinking that his attitude towards the god of wine was too bad before, the mermaid guard touched his nose and was about to go up to salute, but before he could see the face of the god of wine, he plunged into the water and swam straight to the deep palace.
The mermaid guard was stunned as he watched a white water streak gradually disappear, and muttered, "One or two, why are they so anxious today?" ”
Dio thought a lot along the way, and after leaving Moira, he had a plan in his mind slowly taking shape, but it was just an idea, he had to make sure that nothing went wrong, he couldn't gamble, because the cost of gambling and losing was too great.
Hurriedly walked into the antechamber, and then looked at the person opposite in astonishment.
Both the Muses and Hermes were there, apparently not expecting the Dionysian to come, and Hermes was stunned when he saw Dio, who glanced at him, walked quickly to the Muse, took her hand, and kissed her lightly on the fingertips as a sign of respect.
The muse was much more patient than last time, although he still didn't have any expression, but at least he didn't reject it anymore, "Why are you here?" ”
Dio didn't answer, he looked at Hermes and frowned, "What are you doing here?" Looking at the Muse, Dio asked, "Zeus asked you to come?" ”
Hearing Dio's question, Hermes and Muse looked at each other, because of the Siren's relationship, the Scamanders trusted Hermes very much, although the Muse didn't like Dionysus very much, but for the sake of his love for the Siren, she could also treat him as her own.
The Muse whispered, "Hermes is here for the Sirens. After a pause, the Muse added, "He also knew about the sirens just now, which is the prophecy." ”
Of course, Dio knew that Hermes already knew, but looking at the muse's appearance, she didn't seem to know that the siren had told Hermes about it, and glanced at Hermes, and sure enough, he looked at him fixedly, and silently begged him not to say it.
Dio sat down with his eyes half-closed, then raised his eyes and asked him, "What do you want to do here?" ”
Hermes knew that he had understood what he meant, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "It's nothing, I just want to know more about the siren, maybe I can find a way to save her from it, although I have known the siren for a long time, there are some things she has never said, so I came to ask." ”
The Muse continued, "Yes, he was just asking me if the Sirens had any siblings, but I only have this one daughter, no other children," and the Muse frowned, "I don't know why, of our nine sisters, only me and Urania have children, Urania has returned to the sky, her son was conceived in the sky, I have never met him, as for Scamander, he is an only child." ”
Hearing the first words of the Muse, Dio's pupils constricted suddenly, and his gaze hit Hermes, which surprised Hermes, both of whom had the same look, and immediately, they understood.
They came here because they had all been to the Moira Temple, and they had all seen Krosso. Hermes was the first to recover as usual, he looked at the Muse, frowned and asked, "So, the sirens don't have any brothers and sisters in the world?" ”
He also wants the siren to continue to live, if there is a chance to save her, he will definitely seize it at any cost, the method proposed by Krosso is the last rope of the siren, Hermes is not as much as Dio thinks, it is okay if the siren can live, if there is someone else who is better, there is really no, the muse in front of him, and Scamander, who is rushing to Olympus, is his last retreat.
As for whether the sirens wanted to or not, he didn't have time to think about that question.
The Muse was unaware of Hermes's thoughts, and only shook his head slightly, but Dio saw a terrible madness in his eyes, and he immediately understood Hermes's thoughts.
This thought was not unheard of, but the Sirens were different from all of them, she loved her family deeply, and she could never forgive herself for killing her parents.
Thinking like this, Dio became more and more determined in his thoughts, and looked at Hermes with a calm face, the warning in his eyes that made Hermes squint.
The muse also saw the silent confrontation between them, and his beautiful eyes were slightly stunned, and he only heard the wine god say: "You should not have such thoughts, the sirens will hate you." ”
Hermes didn't expect him to pick it out, and his expression couldn't help but sink, "She hates if she wants, I only do what I want, you can watch her die, I can't, it doesn't matter who dies, but it can't be a siren." ”
Listening to his words, Dio's brows couldn't be wrinkled anymore, and he looked at him quietly for a while, Dio suddenly laughed sarcastically, "What kind of feelings do I have for the siren, I don't need you to judge me, there are so many people who love her, do you think you are the most affectionate one?" ”
The laughter made Hermes's face darker and darker, and the muse was listening to them in a daze, but when she saw Hermes's expression, she was shocked, Hermes was already on the verge of rage, and they couldn't fight in this place at this time!
Before she could stop it, Dio narrowed his eyes, "I used to think you were quite wise, it seems that I have lost my eyes, obviously there is the best candidate, you have to choose the one that makes the siren the most painful, what do you have in your head, the river?" ”
This sarcastic remark made the muse as a bystander feel harsh, but Hermes completely ignored the ridicule and asked in a daze: "The best candidate?" ”
Dio chuckled, looked at the muse, and curled the corner of his lips, "yes, the best candidate." ”
=====
After a long stay in the deep palace at the bottom of the river, Dio came out with Hermes, who pursed his lips and pondered about the previous events, until he could already see Olympus, and Hermes said, "This is very risky." ”
Success, everyone is happy; Failure, no return.
Dio looked down calmly until Hermes thought he would not answer, and then he said slowly: "It's a risk for you, but not for me." ”
Hermes was stunned for a moment, he didn't know what the words of the god of wine meant, in this daze, the god of wine had already swooped into Olympus, and he couldn't see him in the blink of an eye.
Dio still wanted to come in through the window, but found that the window was locked, and wanted to look inside, but his vision was obscured by layers of curtains, and he was afraid of waking the sirens, so he could only go around the front door and go around the palace for a long time before returning to the siren's room.
Pushing open the door, the siren was leaning on the pillow, his eyes wide open, looking at Dio intently, and then slowly bent his eyes, his voice a little excited and reproachful, "It's back, it's so late." ”
Indeed, it was already late, very late, and the siren was still waiting for him.
He walked over, the siren moved in, making room for him to lie down, and when Dior lay on the bed and habitually held himself in his arms, the siren squeezed him vigorously, as if he wanted to squeeze himself in, rubbing for a while, there was naturally a reaction, warm fragrant nephrite in his arms, and if he didn't react, he was sick.
Her eyes deepened, and her breathing became a little heavy, and she just wanted to press the siren under her, but she heard her voice ringing in her ears, and her breathing could be felt in her earlobes.
"It's good for you to discuss with Zeus, and bring me with you to discuss the war in the future."
Dio was stunned, remembering the reason he had left Artemis, and then he understood why the siren said this, and just wanted to speak, he listened to the siren continue: "No matter where you go in the future, take me with you, I'll watch from the side, I must not make trouble, today I have waited for you for a long time, I don't want to wait in the future, I don't want to wait anymore." ”
There's no time to wait......
Siren's voice carried a little grievance and sadness, Dio's heart trembled, and the feeling of soreness spread from the internal organs to the whole body, and his hand clamped the Siren's slender waist even harder, and after a long time, he asked in a dumb voice: "Siren." ”
"Huh?"
"When this war is over, let's get married."
Combined, he and Siren have been together for less than three months, but from the first time he saw Siren, he knew that he would have to spend the rest of his life with her, Siren may not feel that way, but it doesn't matter, as long as she loves him now.
After not getting a response from the siren for a long time, he pulled the siren a little away, looked down at her face, a pair of blue eyes became more and more watery, the siren's expression was not happy, not angry, nothing, Dio could not have imagined that she would be expressionless, his heart sank, sure enough, the siren tried to stiffen and try to organize his language, "It's too early...... I love you, that's right, but it's still too early, many goddesses my age are not married, plus I've always been by Al's side, she's an unmarried, in fact, it's such a thing as marriage......"
She became more and more incoherent, Dio lowered her eyes, the gods are all heavy promises, if you promise someone something, you must do it, this is another god, the siren is not like this, she has deceived herself countless times, maybe made countless false promises, why at this time, she didn't even bother to deceive?
Just like that, the big lama rejected him, and it didn't matter if he would be sad or not.
Seeing Dior's expression, Siren's heart immediately throbbed, she dreamed of marrying Dior, Siren had fantasized about her wedding since she was a child, fantasizing that she must marry the person who loved her the most, and now the person who loved her the most and the person she loved the most proposed to her, but she had to refuse.
You can lie about anything, but you can't do it.
Even if she wants to agree and think like crazy, she still can't agree, for Dio, he wants a reassuring guarantee, he already knows the prophecy, he must be very afraid, so he will let himself make a promise after the war, but this guarantee is doomed to fail, she can't lie to herself, let alone Dio, let him slowly accept this fact, it's better than giving him hope now, and finally pulling everything out at once and instilling despair.
She comforted herself very well, but the body still didn't listen to her self-hypnosis, and her heart was still irrepressibly sad, she put her arms around Dior's neck, closed her eyes and took the initiative to kiss him, deepening the kiss a little bit, Dior accepted it shallowly, and suddenly, he suddenly pushed away the siren, and the force was so great that she couldn't help but panic.
Dio was like a frightened beast, the fear and panic in his eyes were self-evident, the siren was stunned, Dio pushed her away, but his hands were still clamping her arms, his breathing became rapid, and the siren did not understand what was happening in the slightest.
Suddenly, the siren froze, and she suddenly remembered that this was how she had kissed Amplos before he died.
