33. First meeting
Dionysus had been gone for a long time, but Scamander remained by the coral, looking very depressed.
The muse walked over slowly, wrapped his arms around him, and rested his head on Scamander's body, as Ampulos often did. Scamander felt his wife's tenderness, but he still couldn't pull himself up, "Am I doing the right thing?" ”
Muse raised her head and smiled, "Of course, it's much easier to face now than later, and hope is the cruelest, and it's good for her to come to her senses quickly, and the sirens will understand later." ”
=====
When they were approaching Mount Olympus, the sirens suddenly said, "There, go down there." ”
Although it was strange, he still listened to the siren's words, and the two landed at the foot of Mount Olympus, and the tall and magnificent entrance was behind them, the siren smiled and looked into Hermes's eyes, "Although I was unconscious at the time, I still vaguely remember that it was you who carried me up from here, swaying, slow and steady, and after coming out of the deep sea, that was when I felt the most comfortable." ”
Hermes looked at the road up the mountain in a daze, and the siren could already say the past with a smile, which showed that she was really happy and really let go of the pain of the past. Seeing Demeter today is also to draw an end to this millennium.
Seeing the siren like this, Hermes exhaled a long breath, and the knots in his heart seemed to disappear, and he also laughed happily, "Do you want me to carry you again?" ”
As he spoke, he reached for it, but the siren deftly dodged it, "No, let's go up together this time." ”
Hermes was stunned, withdrew his hand that was frozen in the air, and said with a smile, "Okay, let's go up together." ”
Walking together on the road that must be passed up the mountain, the siren was still wearing the huge cloak, no one could see her appearance clearly, and when he saw the siren's movements, he knew that she must be snickering.
Hermes asked helplessly, "What's so funny?" ”
The siren's voice came from the cloak, her voice was naturally seductive, so that everyone could not help but agree to all her requests, although it was of little effect on the gods, but every time Hermes was taken by her, "I am just very happy, I have to wait until late at night to go out and out like a rat crossing the street, this is the first time I have walked on Mount Olympus in the daytime." ”
Hermes raised his eyebrows, as if unintentionally, and said: "Even now, don't you want to be secret, go back to your house, and you don't have to do this anymore." ”
The siren's footsteps paused, Hermes was a little nervous, and after a while, the siren began to walk forward again, and his voice was muffled, "I'm not healed yet, don't go back." ”
Hearing the siren's words, Hermes did not leave. Never sensing anyone following, she took off the hat from her cloak and looked back at him, only to find Hermes looking at her sternly.
"Sirens."
Here it is again, and the siren is most afraid that he will call himself in this tone.
Hermes was also helpless, but there were some things that she couldn't just evade, "Your injuries have been almost healed since you left Olympus, even if the underworld deteriorates a bit, it will recover in a few months, siren, you need to go back to the sea and rivers, whether it is the divine wing or the soul, only water can help you." ”
The siren comes from the water, and the air on the land can't nourish her, but the sea can.
The siren glanced at the other side, brushed his azure hair, and said in his mouth, "You let me think about it, isn't there still a few months?" ”
Hermes also stepped forward and nodded, "Okay, but you must go back then." ”
The siren laughed and happily hugged Hermes: "Thank you!" Go back, I'm hungry. ”
Hermes also smiled, the gods would not be hungry, but for the sake of the sirens, he still stored a lot of food for the gods in his castle, although the sirens have not been there for hundreds of years, he still has this habit.
Think about it...... I guess those things are going to go bad.
In a good mood, the siren smiled and walked forward, stopping a few steps to look at the shining sun, holding his face in his hands, and letting out a cheer of satisfaction. If Apollo had seen it, he would have thought it was some girl who loved him.
Both of them were very happy, and they both forgot that the siren was not wearing a hat, and after walking a few steps, the siren lowered his head that had been holding high, just in time to see the two people standing in front of him, and in an instant, the smile froze on his face and slowly disappeared.
Hermes also noticed the two tall figures, and subconsciously took a step forward to block the sirens who were still at a loss.
Eros blinked, then pointed at the sirens and shouted, "Eh!!" Aren't you the oracle of Artemis? You're back?! ”
When Eros shouted these words, he remembered that Artemis had told him not to tell him about it, and he also accidentally bumped into the siren at that time, and looked at Dionysus nervously, but found that he had been staring at the siren closely, and he was forbearing...... There is also a surge of anger brewing.
Swallowing his saliva, he realized how unusual the atmosphere here was, he had been waiting by the river, suddenly saw Dio flying out of the water, and went in the other direction without stopping, he finally caught up with him, and followed Dio to run around until here.
Eros looked at the siren again, she looked a little painful, standing behind Hermes, but still facing Dio's gaze with difficulty, and desperately not bowing her head, really stubborn. Eros frowned, was Dio looking for her?
No one spoke, so Eros rubbed his side and asked in a low voice, "Do you know this oracle too?" Don't ...... "scare other little girls."
"Shut up!"
A low snort frightened Eros immediately shut his mouth, flashed to the side and tried to reduce the sense of storage, Hermes was on guard, and seemed to be about to fight with Dio, and Eros was also ready, as long as there was any situation here, he had to slip away quickly.
Go to Sue Zeus......
Thankfully, no one fought. The first time Siren and Dionysus looked at each other, they knew everything, and after a long time, the Siren slowly lowered his eyes and ripped off Hermes's robe.
Hermes turned around, but still in a defensive posture, and the siren whispered, "You stay away first, and I'll talk to him." ”
Hermes looked at her disapprovingly, with opposition in his eyebrows, "No." ”
The siren raised his head, the firmness and determination in his eyes startled him, and after a silent glance at each other, Hermes was defeated, "Okay, I'm right next to me, let's say first, if he wants to do something, I'll rush up immediately." ”
The siren nodded silently, and Hermes gave Dio a warning glance before slowly walking aside, and as he passed Eros, he grabbed Eros by the collar and led him away.
Eros immediately shouted, "I'll go by myself, I'll go by myself!" ”
When he reached a place that was not far or near, Hermes stopped, and immediately turned to look at the two men on this side.
Siren looked at the person opposite, walked forward with difficulty, and stopped at the right place, Siren pulled out a stiff smile, "I didn't expect you to find it so quickly." ”
Dio looked at this face that was nine points similar to Amplos, and the anger in his heart was even worse, coupled with her expression that was more ugly than crying, Dio couldn't help but sneer, this is the person who played with him, this is the person who took advantage of him.
Without warning, Dio grabbed the siren's cloak, and even she herself was lifted into the sky, the siren was shocked into a cold sweat, but she just closed her eyes tightly and said nothing, Hermes was startled and wanted to catch up, but Eros, who had been extremely straw beside him, suddenly grabbed him, because of the strength of his whole body, Eros's face was squeezed into a bun, and shouted: "I don't want to Hermes either!" But just let them stay for a while! Dio wouldn't hurt that oracle! ”
Just a look from Dionysus, Eros understood what he wanted to do, in fact, Eros himself was beating a drum in his heart, would he really not hurt the oracle...... He also looked terrible, like he wanted to torture her to death.
Hermes angrily attacked Eros, but Eros held back, and it took about a minute for Eros to let go of his hand and collapse to the ground. After this minute, Hermes would never find the two of them again.
Hermes flew up into the sky, looked around, and then came down in a rage, grabbed Eros's collar, and forced him to look at him.
"If something happens to the Sirens, I won't let you go! I'll take you to Tartarus to accompany the Titans! ”
Looking at Hermes's eyes wide because of anger, Eros was too frightened to speak, and he could only keep silently chanting in his heart that the oracle must be safe.
Wait, what did he say that oracle was called?
Forgetting that he was still threatened, Eros opened his eyes wide and asked in disbelief, "Her name is Siren?" The siren who is dead? ”
Hermes was stunned, and accidentally said the name of the siren, and he was stunned when a woman's voice sounded behind him, "The one just now, is it the siren?" ”
Word by word, the owner of the voice frowned, looked at the two people who were fighting in front of him, and waited for an answer.
Hermes was already chilled when she heard this voice, and she didn't even find out when she came.
Eros stretched out his hand and prayed to Athena to save him, but for a moment he remembered what had been rumored, and he withdrew his hand tremblingly, fearing that Athena would be angry and wanted to kill him.
Athena didn't, she just walked forward slowly, Hermes had already loosened Eros's collar and looked at Athena too.
Athena's gaze wandered over the two of them, and then showed her usual charming smile, and asked seemingly gently: "Am I mistaken, why is the person who was taken away by Dionysus just now so similar to a siren?" ”
