Chapter 250: Twins of Love and Desire

Winter in the world not only affects the earth, but also many places in the world are affected by seasonal changes as the climate becomes colder.

In other words, Demeter did not bring winter, and what she really controlled was never the changes of the four seasons. It's just that the world needs the complete four seasons, and then it will be used as a node to come to this world. The anger of the goddess of fertility is just an introduction.

Just like now, when the concept of [winter] was born in this world, the first thing that was noticed was not the living beings on the earth, but the gods or artifacts that were also connected to it. In the fourth level of the spiritual world, the [Well of Reincarnation] is surging and seems to be echoing something from a distance.

As a symbol of the [cycle] of all things in the world, the perfection of the four seasons spontaneously caused the power of this [Creation Artifact] to surge. It tried to pull the concept of [Winter] into the spiritual world according to some mysterious induction. However, despite the extremely powerful power of the artifact, it was still unable to do this.

Because the present world has isolated the extra power of this spiritual artifact, it only instinctively retains the connection between [Spring], [Summer], [Autumn] and [Winter]. Although this connection is still considered close, it is obviously not as good as Demeter, who personally guided the coming of winter, or even her daughter Persephone.

Therefore, no matter how the well water fluctuates, when the concept of "winter" in Khaos is gradually completed with this long cold season, the cycle originally composed of "spring", "summer" and "autumn" is being dismantled. This may not have a drastic impact on the [Well of Samsara], but it is not impossible, because although its foundation is the mutual transformation of [life] and [death], at the beginning of its birth, the cycle of seasons was also its power. a part of.

The negative impact of the change caused a wave of water, and the surface of the rolling well rippled endlessly. For this reason, when this change was just discovered, the guardian of the Well of Samsara, the goddess of autumn Erene, went to the fifth level of the spiritual world and reported the situation to Ryan. However, at that time, the answer she received Just wait.

The right time has not come yet. Although Erinye doesn't know what the right time is, Ryan's decision is always right, so she returned to the [Well of Reincarnation] and continued her previous work.

Until today, according to the mysterious connection between herself and the artifact, Erinye, who woke up from her busy schedule, suddenly discovered that there seemed to be some unexpected changes at the bottom of the endlessly circling well.

Something is being born, or in other words, some kind of consciousness is awakening.

"This is……"

"This is the new life of a 'dead' person."

I don't know when, Ryan was already standing on the well wall like a high wall. Inside the well mouth, the water waves became more and more turbulent, but the splashing waves would stop when they leaped to a certain height, as if they hit some barrier and fell back into the well.

Nearby, the team of souls originally waiting for reincarnation had stopped. Apparently, the [Well of Reincarnation] at this time had temporarily lost its original function due to inexplicable changes.

"Your Highness."

With a respectful greeting, Erinye on the side bowed her head slightly. In front of her, Ryan just waved his hand, and then motioned to the other party that there was no need to be polite.

"Look Erinye, today is the right time."

“If you don’t want some things, then let those who can ask for them ask for them.”

Speaking softly, Ryan, who is familiar with the trajectory of myths, naturally already knew about the four seasons.

The report from the Goddess of Autumn just allowed him to determine the specific time, but Zhigui knew that this did not mean that Ryan could also take the power of [Winter] into his bag, even at this moment, it had not yet been delegated to a specific person in this world. On a certain creature.

After all, whether it is given to Demeter or attributed to Persephone, it is because they are gods in this world that they can cause the "cold winter", not for any other reason.

Strictly speaking, it is the arrival of winter that causes all things to wither, not the other way around. The goddess of fertility's behavior just happens to conform to the laws of the world's perfect four seasons, which leads to the advent of [winter].

Therefore, even if another god in the spiritual world were to cause the decline of all things in another way, it would not be able to replace Demeter's existence. It is already the third era after all, and some loopholes in the laws that existed in the second era have long since disappeared. There is nothing we can do about this.

But even though he said that, it was obviously impossible for Ryan to really sit back and watch the cycle of seasons be torn apart. [The Well of Reincarnation] is one of the cores of the spiritual world. Naturally, he cannot allow this kind of thing to happen. Fortunately, some reasons have been laid as early as the day when reincarnation was opened, and now, it is time for it to come to fruition.

"Eros, the original god who was supposed to be born great, you died before you were born because of Chaos and me, but it is precisely because you were never 'born' that you still have a chance to come back again. "

"Your 'death' is entangled with me, and I used it to shape reincarnation. Then your 'life' also begins from this. From now on, you are an independent living being."

Ryan spoke softly, and the fourth spiritual world shook slightly. The vast power extended from the void and plunged into the bottom of the [Well of Reincarnation] to complete the final change.

Since the creation of reincarnation relied on the 'death' of Eros, while it symbolized life and death, it naturally also brought the opportunity of 'reincarnation' to the original god himself, and most importantly, in the original life of Chaos In the trajectory, there is actually a paradoxical existence of the other party.

Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty, originally had a husband who was not the god of war, but the god of craftsman Hephaestus in mythology. However, the nature given by the priesthood made her unwilling to be bound by marriage, and her husband's ugliness and disability made her hate it deeply, so it was almost natural that she secretly sought her own "love", and the handsome and strong Ares was naturally one of her most frequent lovers.

In the process, the illegitimate child born by the two of them, the little Cupid who also left many legends, seemed to have some connection with the original god at the beginning of creation. He was also named "Eros" in mythology, and he also had the authority related to love, which made it difficult for people to believe that there was no relationship between them - of course, in addition to Eros, he had another well-known name, which was also the title given to him by the Romans - Cupid.

Ryan didn't know what was so special about this little Cupid with the same name and surname as the original god if he didn't exist, and what deep secrets existed, but whether they were originally connected or not, now he just wanted them to have it. Moreover, in the field of mysticism, the name itself carries a very distinct personal trace. If you have the same name, you can naturally carry a similar fate.

So looking at the surging wellhead, Ryan stretched out his hand and pressed down.

"Crack--"

Silently, something illusory was cut off and spliced, and at the bottom of the [Well of Reincarnation], the breath of life became more and more obvious.

The sacredness that died before being born is there, and today, he will be reborn.

...

It was night, on Mount Olympus.

Everything that happened in the spirit world did not spread here. On the contrary, the so-called "opportunity" that Ryan was waiting for actually appeared because of the changes here.

Everything needs an opportunity to fit the inherent fate of the world, and then there is room for various operations. And the introduction of all this can be attributed to the first night meeting of the two gods on the sacred mountain.

Hundreds of years have passed, and the residence of the gods on Mount Olympus has long repeated the old view. Under the shining of the stars and the moon, they flashed different colors, and under the reflection of the authority of different temple owners, they embellished this pillar that supported the sky.

Near the halfway point of the mountain, a grand sea of ​​flowers spread on the flat ground. Roses, pomegranates and myrtles (a kind of flower) bloomed one after another, and they surrounded a small and exquisite temple. On the white pillars, waves, waves and foam were carved, and their exquisite reliefs seemed to hint at the birth of the owner here.

There is no doubt that this is the embodiment of love and beauty, the temple of Aphrodite. More than one god has praised that the most beautiful flowers should naturally be guarded by thousands of flowers, so there is this gorgeous ocean outside her temple. However, at this time, bursts of violent panting and collisions came from the temple, destroying the quiet and beautiful atmosphere here.

Under the dim and ambiguous light of Mingzhu, clothes were thrown messily on the ground. In the middle of the huge bed, two figures were entangled, wantonly venting the primitive impulse of the gods.

Although more than one god had stayed in this palace in the past years, this time, Aphrodite finally remembered Ares, who had not yet held a wedding with her.

Although the other party has not yet reached the peak of the priesthood, the God of War is the God of War after all. He has extraordinary power, which is born with the priesthood, and considering this situation, Aphrodite does not mind letting the other party taste some sweetness in advance.

However, today's experience is destined to disappoint the goddess of beauty, because the rolling on the bed has not lasted for long, and the god of war suddenly stiffened. This handsome and burly god seemed to feel some spiritual warning, but he couldn't detect the problem.

This made him instinctively "alert", but when he looked around, there was nothing worth his vigilance.

"Hmm~?"

"Ares, what's wrong with you?"

Noticing the wrong state of the person on her body, the goddess of beauty didn't care. She just stretched. For a moment, the female temptation was fully exerted by her, but what surprised Aphrodite was that the god of war still had no reaction to it.

But this shouldn't be right. No matter how you look at it, the strong Ares shouldn't have this kind of reaction. For a moment, she even doubted her own charm.

"Aphrodite, it's nothing, I just had a bad feeling just now..."

Ares seemed to notice the strangeness in the eyes of the goddess of beauty, and he explained hurriedly. And in front of him, I don't know if she believed it or not, Aphrodite just turned her eyes and silently hooked her belt.

Even if she didn't wear it on her body, as the natural owner of the artifact, Aphrodite still borrowed a little power from it. In an instant, her charm was magnified again in the original field.

Lazily lying on the bed, the goddess of beauty closed her eyes. She had used her own artifact more than once, so she knew its effect.

In the case of full play, even the current God King would be attracted by her eyes, not to mention the God of War who only has medium divine power now. She was ready to be pounced on, but what surprised her again was that after waiting for a long time, until she could not help but open her eyes, Aphrodite only saw the embarrassed look of the God of War.

Apparently, perhaps the omen of fate was too strong, so Ares was always in a state of "stress". This was the most acute intuition of the God of War, but now, it made him lose interest in Aphrodite in front of him.

If it were normal, this wouldn't be a problem. Perhaps Aphrodite would secretly look up to him. After all, not every god could resist his temptation with his will. But now, this is another way of saying it.

"A-Re-S-?"

"Aphrodite, I..."

"Bang!"

In the night, with a muffled sound, Ares rolled out of the palace of the goddess of beauty. He climbed up from the cold floor and was about to say something when he was covered in clothes thrown from behind the door.

The door closed tightly, as if its owner never wanted to see this guy who disgusted her again. And watching this scene, the God of War, who was originally irritable by nature, couldn't get angry at all.

This was his first private meeting with Aphrodite, and he didn't expect such a result to happen. For a moment, Ares doubted himself a little. Could it be that there was something wrong with his body that caused this situation?

Of course, the God of War couldn't think of an answer, but at this point, he had to put on his clothes depressedly and walked towards his palace. Ares didn't know at this time that in the closed palace, the goddess of beauty was also gritting her teeth.

He looked tall and handsome, but in fact he was just a show-off. He didn't have much ability and liked to make excuses. At this moment, Aphrodite, who was originally satisfied with this marriage, had other thoughts again.

Different beginnings, same results. Even if the lover in the original trajectory became a husband, it seemed that the fate of the goddess of beauty had not changed.

...

In the spirit world, in front of the [Well of Samsara], Ryan obviously didn't know what happened on Mount Olympus.

He just sensed the fluctuation of fate belonging to the birth of the little god of love, so he seized this perfect opportunity, instead of really watching what happened on Mount Olympus. He couldn't have thought that his behavior would be detected by the fighting instinct of the god of war.

Detecting the changes in fate, or giving birth to a clear premonition, without the corresponding authority, this is something that only great divine power can do. If Ryan knew everything about Ares today, he would probably be amused and sigh at the power of the other party's priesthood.

Although Ares didn't seem to win much in the myth, that was because his opponents were stronger. In terms of the priesthood itself, even if [War] leaned towards personal tyranny and injustice, Ares was actually a rare powerful god.

But those were just gossip. Now, looking at the well water that was almost boiling in front of him, Ryan nodded.

When he returned from the Nine Realms, he brought back some dragon eggs. Now most of them have hatched, only the original time dragon has not yet been born.

The reason why Ryan chose the latter among [Order], [Reincarnation] and [Time] was because the first two were not suitable.

[Order] is not unique to the spirit world, and the reason why [Reincarnation] was also excluded is actually because of the creatures that are gradually reincarnated. Otherwise, it seems that there is nothing wrong with the birth of a [Cyclic Dragon]. (See 3-59)

"But there are still some things missing... Destiny and spirituality are there, but it still needs material and carriers."

"Fortunately, my preparations have finally come in handy."

Nodding slightly, Ryan stretched out his hand, and in a palace where treasures were stored, a ball of blood that had been forgotten for an era flew out of thin air, passed through the barrier of space and fell into his palm. (See 2-11)

That was the blood foam of Uranus, the former dangerous Keto of the sea, and later the goddess who mastered false beauty, which shed her old body. But that was just the result of Ryan's unintentional creation. What he really wanted to do at that time was to take away the blood foam that later gave birth to the three goddesses of vengeance and Aphrodite.

At that time, Ryan didn't know that Eros' death was caused by him, but this did not prevent him from discovering the fact that the little god of love had the same name and surname as the original god according to the memory of later generations. So out of consideration for being prepared, Ryan took a spoonful of blood foam and kept it until today, and now it has finally found a place to use it.

This blood foam, which was born from the same source as Aphrodite, easily replaced the goddess of beauty in fate. With it as material, it was enough to serve as another "mother body" to give Eros a new life.

"Go, this is the best for you."

With a flick of his finger, the vial carrying the blood foam shattered and fell into the surging well in front of him. Some changes immediately occurred more violently. Standing on the wall of the well, Ryan watched this scene quietly.

"Come to this world... and then ask Him for compensation."

"Since [lust] has collapsed, use something else as proof of your birth."
