Chapter 122 The curse of love is unsolvable
Half a month later, Eros finally set out on his way out of the underworld.
The water and soil in the underworld are actually not bad, and the blissful land flowing with milk and honey is even softer and sweeter.
It’s just a bit taxing, and it’s still too tiring after doing too much farm work.
Mingta escaped the fate of being turned into mint grass, but he could not avoid the fate of wormwood.
When Eros couldn't remember clearly, Hades followed his lead and coaxed Mingta into bed, forcing Eros to add an extra hour.
Until finally, all the tricks were exhausted, and Eros was reluctantly allowed to leave.
But before leaving the underworld, Eros still needs to find someone.
At Hypnos' urging, Eros took out Hecate's scepter.
Hecate should live in the underworld, but her location is not deep in the underworld, but near the entrance.
The scepter emits the light of the crescent moon, guiding Eros in the direction.
"As soon as I got up from the belly of the goddess, I immediately went to find the next one."
"Oh, what a scumbag!"
Hypnos muttered Gu cursed Eros in his belly.
Although she spoke very quietly, Eros could still hear her clearly.
It's just that Eros is lying on the boat now and has no mood or energy to tease her.
Without him, he is too tired, and now he needs a little fresh stimulation to rejuvenate him.
Hypnos has become very cautious now, not interesting enough at all, and needs to be nurtured.
Following the direction pointed by the scepter, Eros went all the way upstream and came to the Acheron, the River of Pain.
This is the first river that ordinary souls encounter after arriving in the underworld, which also means that Eros is not far from the entrance to the underworld.
Looking around on the river, Eros did not look at a certain Styx ferryman and lowered his head with regret.
Maybe he was summoned by Hades to start making some work arrangements for the underworld.
After crossing the Arkron River, we arrived at the place of sunset and dusk.
This is the land between the boundary between life and death in front of the entrance to the underworld.
This is the land that Hemera, the goddess of day, and Etel, the god of ether, pass through every day.
Nyx had Aether create a glowing atmosphere above the Earth, lifting the veil from the dark night air, and Hemera dispersing the night's fog.
The light was able to shine on the earth, and the two of them took turns going in and out of the abyss, which brought about the alternation of day and night.
Sparse souls were seen in the twilight land of Eros. It seems that the underworld now is far from as busy as it will be in the future.
The scepter in his hand bloomed with the light of the crescent moon, breaking through the layers of confusion for Eros.
The witch's hut hidden in this land of dusk and located at the fork in the road was shown to Eros.
Eros finally cheered up and tidied his clothes.
The goddess Hecate, right? Are you ignoring him?
Whatever you say this time must be somewhat effective.
After confirming that he was fully prepared, Eros stepped forward and knocked on the wooden door of the hut.
“Goddess Hecate, I have come to keep my appointment.”
He has a gentle attitude, a sunny smile, and a voice full of magnetism, which is matched with the appearance of this man who kills both humans and gods.
Eros felt that there was no reason why he could not defeat Hecate. Even if she was a female concubine, Eros could transform and defeat her.
But when Eros knocked on the wooden door, there were a few sounds of something falling in the hut, and then a series of sounds.
“Goddess Hecate?”
Eros felt a little strange, and after apologizing, he was about to open the door and enter.
"No!"
Hecate's voice came from the room, and it sounded like she was in a girlish state.
But she spoke a little too late, Eros had already opened the door.
There are no extra gold and silver decorations in the witch's hut. They are basically vegetation and handmade ornaments.
And the overall style is very messy, with various used tools and objects placed randomly in various places.
There is a beauty in playing a game and stuffing a bunch of objects into it just for the sake of charisma score.
The cause of the series of sounds just now was the table that was brought down to the ground, and a lot of things on it fell to the ground.
Hecate, who had removed her black robe and only wore a hazy gauze skirt, finally revealed her true appearance in front of Eros.
Eros had seen her reveal herself as a great goddess three times in one go. Three similar but different faces appeared at the same time, making her appear divine and strange.
Now Hecate has revealed her side as a girl besides being a great goddess.
Her temperament is as quiet as Nyx, but it also adds a bit of delicateness.
The little face had a somewhat embarrassed and flustered expression, which actually made it look a little more angry.
Is this really the goddess Hecate who is indifferent to her?
A doubt arose in Eros's heart.
"Hug, sorry! Wait for me to clean up! I'll be fine soon!"
Stuttering, Hecate lay on the ground in a panic, picking up the messy bottles and jars.
Eros reflected for a moment, maybe it was because Hecate had three phases in different states.
And by chance, what I encountered was a relatively young girl.
If it is a more mature stage and period, she may be the indifferent and indifferent goddess that I remember some time ago. Thinking of this, Eros bent down and helped Hecate pick up the things on the ground with a smile.
While she is weak, he must penetrate her heart hard.
"Goddess Hecate, don't worry, let me clean it up for you."
".Hmm."
Muttered an embarrassed groan, Hecate's face turned red and she didn't dare to speak. She just packed her things silently.
As for Eros, while helping Hecate clean up, he was observing the other party’s living environment.
The chaotic arrangement shows that Hecate is not a person who cares about the details of life.
Many bottles, jars, and messy materials such as belladonna, rabbit tail, and elderberry.
Eros, who has the [Potion Making] skill, can easily understand that these are materials used to make potions or perform witchcraft.
Then Hecate seems to be a little clumsy. I don’t know if she is only able to do it in this state, or if she is like this in other states as well.
Thinking gradually became a little divergent. Inadvertently, Eros's hand and Hecate's hand reached for the same bottle of fallen potion.
The moment the fingers touched, Hecate retracted her back as if she was electrocuted. This reaction was somewhat familiar to Eros.
I bumped into him last time when I went out, and she had the same reaction.
However, seeing that Hecate's expression seemed a little nervous and embarrassed, Eros picked up the bottle of magic potion on the ground in order to lighten the atmosphere.
Then he spoke to Hecate in a gentler tone.
“What kind of magic potion is this? I wonder if the goddess Hecate can help me solve my mystery?”
Generally speaking, people who have interests and hobbies can open up each other's conversation box by talking about these things as long as they like them.
Let people who are originally introverts become a little more talkative.
For example, if he was talking about eating or billiards with a dead man, he would definitely not be able to say a word for a long time.
But if you tell him something, Sakura is so cute and Tomoyo is powerful, he will definitely be interested in chatting with you.
Everyone is a hidden chatterbox, it’s just a matter of whether they hit that spot.
And Eros felt that Hecate, as the goddess of witchcraft and magic, would be very interested in these things.
But when Hecate saw the bottle of potion in his hand, she was stunned, and then her face began to turn red.
“This, this, this is.”
Hecate was speechless, making Eros feel confused.
Eros simply opened the bottle, smelled it, and tried to analyze the ingredients by smell to deduce what kind of potion it was.
After all, he also has the [Potion Making] skill, and he is more or less a half master of potion.
"Black acanthus, apple, ginseng and nightshade"
These ingredients are very familiar, and they seem to be used for something.
"That is, yes, love. Potion"
Hecate said softly, suppressing her embarrassment and shyness.
What?
Eros' hand shook violently and almost spilled it.
The love potion is too cruel. Eros would rather take any poison than this thing.
Generally, there are several differences in love potions. After drinking it, you will be loyal to the person in front of you until death; if you change your heart, you will die of angina;
There are also those that are fanatical. Pursue the other person, become the ultimate dog licker, and end up with no good end.
This thing is a T0-level magic potion common to all myths and legends.
No matter how bad the curse is, there is a way to break it, but the only exception is the curse of love.
Love has no solution.
Eros held the bottle of potion in both hands, then capped it, and firmly remembered its color.
But why does Hecate make a love potion? Judging from the packaging, it should have just been released in the past few days.
This thing is definitely his lifelong enemy and must be taken seriously.
"Well Goddess Hecate, if this bottle of potion is of no use, can you give it to me?"
Since there is danger, it is better to receive it in your own hands.
Sooner or later, Eros will have to make the practice of love potion completely lost, so that he will not have to be careful about what he eats in the future.
“Huh?.Okay”
Hecate was a little stunned, but still nodded reluctantly, feeling a little regretful in her heart.
I finally succeeded in refining it after working overtime, but the plan was stillborn before I even thought about it.
“Goddess Hecate?”
Eros waved his hand in front of Hecate, calling her back from her daze.
“Sorry, sorry, I was rude!”
Nodding and apologizing, Hecate turned around in a panic and rummaged through the cabinet for things to entertain guests.
The girl's exquisite figure is clearly exposed under the semi-transparent gauze skirt, and her bent waist outlines the shape of the half-ripe peach.
Eros raised the corner of his mouth, admiring it with interest.
How wonderful it is to wear a black robe every day that can’t even see your face, with no curves at all. What is he looking at?
But this Hecate has a very strange attitude. Could it be that she has a split personality?
It needs to be observed more carefully.
Save a copy of the love potion and see if you can use it on someone later.
