Chapter 393 Don’t reward me, it’s all an excuse
Although Hypnos looked anxious, what he said was extremely serious.
But Hades remained unhurried and showed no signs of worry.
As a leader, all she has to do is hold accountable whoever is responsible.
How to deal with it specifically is not her problem.
Besides, Hades came out of the Battle of the Titans and had never seen any big storms.
She has seen big scenes that overthrew the heavens, overturned the earth, and shook the whole world. What does this little thing mean?
With no trace of emotion on his face, Hades asked Hypnos if he had contacted Thanatos, the God of Death who was responsible for this matter.
Sleep and death are twins.
As the god of sleep, Hypnos will come in silent dreams and lead people who have reached the end of their lives into eternal sleep.
The people at that time were not dead yet, but they could no longer wake up.
Then, Thanatos, the god of death, will wield his scythe and ruthlessly harvest life, bringing about the end.
Different from Hypnos who likes to fish and leaves all his work to the three thousand dream gods.
Thanatos is undoubtedly a diligent workaholic. He never complains and is never lazy.
Seeing that Hypnos did not answer, but just lowered his head, Hades already understood the situation.
"You can't get in touch either? It seems like it's not just laziness."
Although death is always diligent, occasionally, there will be lucky people who can catch the moment when death relaxes. Find hope for the time being.
Although the god of death will come back soon and continue to take away his life.
But since Hypnos couldn't be contacted, it meant that there was indeed an accident.
"No wonder you are so anxious. In fact, what you are anxious about is not the operation of the underworld, but the safety of Thanatos, right?"
Hypnos nodded repeatedly and lowered his head in shame.
As a twin, she knows Thanatos's character best, although sometimes she is busy with work and cannot see anyone for a long time.
But it is definitely impossible to not see anyone and not go to work.
It is not a problem for the underworld to be stagnant for a period of time, just to deal with the accumulated things.
But she was worried that Thanatos might have had some unknown accident, which was why she came to Hades in such a hurry.
After all, the mother goddess was unreliable and couldn't even get in, so she had no choice but to come to her boss.
In order to prevent Hades from being indifferent or even depriving her of the priesthood and replacing her, she made an excuse about the operation of the underworld, but Hades saw through it.
"Don't worry, the God of Death is an extremely important part of the underworld. How could I ignore it?"
Hades is not as sinister as Hypnos thought. Where can I find such a diligent workaholic as Thanatos?
It is best to maintain a stable state, and she cannot tolerate the interference of the most important death authority in the underworld.
She squinted her eyes and wondered in her mind who could do such a thing.
There were not many capable and possible candidates, and they were quickly eliminated by Hades one by one.
The only possibility left in the end is undoubtedly the fact.
“Sure enough, it’s my restless grandmother who is trying to reach out to the authority of the underworld again, isn’t it?”
Gaia, the mother goddess of the earth, wants to get involved in the underworld. The abyss and underworld below is basically a fact known to everyone.
Before Hades established the underworld, Gaia had already sent her monsters to invade the entire underworld.
Now he wants to try to shake Hades' position as Hades by getting the authority to die.
All of these are just logical and reasonable inferences. And except for Gaia, no god has the ability or ambition to do this.
Just when Hades finalized this fact, he was ready to challenge Gaia and show his strength.
Eros suddenly remembered something, his expression became strange, and he interrupted her speculation.
"You may have misunderstood. Gaia may not have done this."
Listening to them discussing Thanatos, the God of Death, Eros subconsciously recalled the things in his mind The story inside.
Then it really reminded him of some small things, so his expression became quite strange.
“I mean, what if, what if, Thanatos was tricked by a mortal while working, and then capsized in the gutter?”
Eros remembered that although Thanatos had no story, she did serve as a stepping stone in another person's story.
That was King Sisyphus of Corinth, who was judged by Eros to be like a dog and a donkey at that time and received the Dharma Sutra.
He used a trick to deceive the God of Death and locked Death in a bronze bottle. From then on, there was no more death on the earth.
Of course, his actions eventually led to punishment from the gods, and he suffered eternal torture in the underworld.
If nothing else happened, Thanatos would have probably overturned in Sisyphus's place.
Sisyphus, who was originally an ordinary demigod, was able to trick her, but now that he has the power of the magnetic field and the martial arts of Dharma Sutra, it is even easier.
Thinking of this, Eros couldn't help but feel a little sad for Thanatos.
Now the God of Death has a hard time doing his job. Originally, the harvest targets were ordinary mortals, at most demigods.
Nowadays, there may be saints in the sanctuary or Dian Lao who have learned the Dharma Sutra, but they are not fuel-efficient lamps.
To put it in terms of the subconscious reactions of Hades and Hypnos, it would be: Can wheat still bite people? !
Thanatos, who holds the power of death, is indeed no different from harvesting wheat when facing mortals whose lives have come to an end.
So the possibility that Eros mentioned was as outrageous to them as the wheat came back to bite them.
But Hades quickly reacted and remembered that there was an exception like Eros in front of him.
"If you say that, then it is possible."
The corners of her mouth twitched slightly.
If they were humans, it would indeed be possible to do such a thing. After all, they didn't understand the relationship and authority between gods.
They only know that they don’t want to die, and then they don’t think too much, and in turn beat the God of Death.
This possibility is very high, and it is very troublesome. We still need to find someone to find out who did it. The number of suspicious targets has expanded several times in an instant.
Hades has a headache. She now feels that in addition to cultivating intellectual talents, she also needs to strengthen the training in weapons and equipment in the underworld.
There are not many martial arts sects among the gods of the underworld. If something fierce comes, and only the soul is left, it is estimated that they can kill everyone and make a big fuss in the underworld.
Hades couldn't handle it herself every time. She was the boss, not a security guard.
"No matter what, let's solve the matter at hand first."
Suppressing this idea for the time being, Hades took a deep breath.
"Eros, you must know something, right? Thanatos will trouble you to bring it back for me."
"When you come back, I will reward you well."
