Chapter 46: The Thoughts of the Bacchus

The castle of Cadmua in the city of Thebais, the place where Zeus rendezvoused with Semele, the mother of the god of wine, and the land of the grandfather of Dionysus, the god of wine.

Bacchus has always considered this place his hometown, and it is also home to his largest temple.

The temple of Dionysus was different from other gods, and there was no deliberately quiet atmosphere in his temple. Inside this temple, the believers and the sacrifices were in a mess, and they were all drinking bitterly.

Adros walked through the door, he didn't take on the form of Iathion this time, after all, the gods communicate better with the gods. When he saw the scene inside the temple, he couldn't help but smile, this Dionysus, the god of wine, was really an interesting deity.

When they see someone coming in, the believers of Dionysus are not like the believers of other gods, who ask questions when they meet the living, lest they come to wreak havoc.

When they saw Adros, one of them threw a bag of wine at random. Adros took the wine, chuckled, and drank it with his head up, not to mention, this wine was much better than what he had drunk before, and even the wine he had drunk in Olympus before was not as good as it, worthy of the god of wine.

After drinking, Adros did not sing and dance with these people, but went to the statue of Dionysus, tapped his hand twice, and said: "Dionysus, there is a guest to visit, please show up." โ€

At this time, Dionysus was having a banquet with Poseidon in the middle of the sea, talking about the strange things he had traveled all over the world. Suddenly, the young Dionysian looked moved and said to Poseidon, the king of the sea, "Your Majesty Poseidon, have you seen this god?"

As he spoke, an image of black hair and black eyes appeared on the palm of his hand. The gods would leave a little thought in their most important temple, and he got the message from it.

When Poseidon saw this image, he was stunned: "Hey, it's him." โ€

"Your Majesty knows this deity?"

Poseidon chuckled: "Speaking of which, he is still your half-brother, his name is Adros, and he is also the son of Zeus. โ€

Hearing this name, Dionysuston reacted and wondered, "This is the brother of Apollo and Artemis, the husband of Aphrodite?"

Speaking of which, he also thought about starting with the coquettish goddess above Olympus. It's just that over the years, Hecate, the vice-monarch of the underworld, the incarnation of the moon, the goddess of ghosts and hell, the god of Adros, and the goddess of the road who rules the three forks, has been in Olympus, although he is not small, but he does not dare to die.

You must know that Ares, the god of war, has been taught by Hekate to have no temper at all, and now when he meets Aphrodite, he doesn't even dare to look at it a few more times.

"I just don't know, what is this North Star God, Lord of Paths and Directions, looking for me?" Dionysus wondered.

Poseidon shook his head: "I don't have much contact with him, but my wife Amphitrite is a little familiar with him. Since it's looking for you, you won't know if you look at it in the past. โ€

"Yes, I've been drinking this wine for a few days anyway, so it's time to go out for a walk, and by the way, see what this enviable god is looking for me to do. โ€

Dionysus drank the wine from the cup and took his leave. Poseidon looked at him in the distance, shook his head and smiled, these sons of Zeus are really more interesting than the other. Apollo, Hephaestus, Ares, Hermes to the present Dionysus, none of them is simple.

Coming to his temple in Thebais, and waving away the noisy believers, Dionysus asked Adros, "I don't know what Lord Adros is looking for me?"

He knew early on that this god of the way and direction never called himself the son of Zeus. For many years on Mount Olympus, he never called Zeus, the god-king, his father, and Zeus never regarded him as his own son. Dionysus has always been familiar with human affairs, so naturally he will not be bored.

Adros did not greet him, but directly stated his intentions and asked him if he knew anything about Dotonia's wife, Kana.

After Dionysus heard this, he had been looking for the two missing goddesses with the gods some time ago, and now he heard that among his followers, someone actually knew some news, and hurriedly ordered his priest to find them.

"Seen my God. โ€

Kana looked at Dionysus in front of her with a look of obsessive adoration, and in her and the Dionysian believers like her, Dionysus had a higher status than the god-king Zeus.

Although Dionysus was a male god, most of his followers, especially the craziest ones, were women. These women, who were usually sacrificed to the god of wine, were so mad that anyone who dared to stop them from feasting was their enemy, and whoever dared to be disrespectful to Dionysus would take revenge.

One of the kings of Thebais, Pentheus, was killed by his mother and other angry Dionysian followers because he forbade his people to worship Dionysus and persecuted the Dionysian followers.

"Kana, I ask you, what did your husband Dotonia say to you before he died about the goddess of harvest and the queen of the underworld. Dionysus asked gently.

"My God, forgive me, I did not mean to leak the news of the gods, but the slander of the gods was instigated by my husband, and now he has been summoned by Hades. But your believers still want to be able to serve you. โ€

When Kana heard this, she was so nervous that her face turned white at once, and she hurriedly begged Dionysus for forgiveness.

Bacchus waved her hand to stop her: "I am not asking you for this, your husband was not killed by Hades. I just want to know what he told you, and where the battle between the two goddesses he saw took place. โ€

Kana trembled and said, "He came back from Athens that time, and then he told me that the two goddesses of Olympus were in a place called Eleus, northwest of Athens, and were besieged by many gods, and they were at a disadvantage, and they were very likely to fall. Then I was drinking with my companions when I accidentally mentioned it in passing. โ€

"It spread very quickly, and a lot of people started talking about it. Then my husband, Dotonia, died for no reason, and even the cause of death could not be found. Frightened by his death, I did not dare to speak of it again, and hid in your temple. โ€

"Is there anything else you know?" asked Dionysus.

"No, my God. โ€

Dionysus waved his hand and motioned for her to stand aside, then said to Adros, "It seems that we are going to Eleusis." โ€

"You're going to come with me?" said Adroschi.

Dionysus laughed to himself: "I am the son of a god and a mortal, I became a god by luck, and then I was summoned to Olympus by the god-king, and there is not a single ally among the gods. Now I have a rare opportunity to befriend the Goddess of Harvest and His Majesty the Hades, how can I miss this opportunity. โ€
