Greek Demon Myth - Greek Demon Myth chapter 114
114 – Behind the Myth.
I’m talking to someone, and the current flows on topics that embarrass me or that are against me.
That’s why the flow of criticism starts to go towards me?
In that case, there is a very effective solution.
“I had a fight with the goddess Artemis.”
To cover the topic with an even more unconventional story.
And I was the center of a topic that was more unconventional and shocking than any rumors in Greece.

“…What?”
Have you heard correctly?
Poseidon’s wide-eyed eyes seemed to say so.
Well, even if you are like me, you will react the same way if you hear that you have been lying down with your nephew.
“Is that really true?”
“As Hermes, Ares, and Hera know, I am with the goddess Artemis.
I misplaced the first button. To avenge this, he came last night while meditating in the woods.”
The important thing here is not to tell the whole story in detail.
To be honest, conquering the goddess of chastity was a feat she was proud of as a man.
Artemis hadn’t completely fallen into her hands yet, and she swore to the River Styx to keep the day’s work a secret.
It would be wiser for her to gloss over it for now.
“So, what happened?”
“Do I dare to speak of the detriment to the prestige of the goddess who ascended the throne of Olympus?
For his honor, we have decided to bury last night’s events in the River Styx, so please consider it.”
“Ohhh… He is still alive with that Zeus daughter-in-law…? hahahaha.”
Poseidon’s eyes changed from his father’s eyes to those of interest in the man who cheated on his daughter.
‘It was good.’
Looking at this, I smiled triumphantly.
In Murim, as well as here in Greece, honor is more important than life sometimes.
Even in Greece, it is Zeus, the supreme god, who presides over honor, oaths, and customs.
But nothing else, mentioning the honor of Zeus’s bloodline and even mentioning the River Styx. Asking further questions is tantamount to challenging Zeus.
I only didn’t say anything there, but I blurted my words enough to infer what the situation was, so Poseidon nodded his head appropriately as I aimed and moved on.
“Although Zeus, I heard that the proud man gave Artemis the right to act in the sanctuary. Hee hee, I didn’t expect you to catch my son-in-law.”
Poseidon, whose eyes were flashing earlier, seemed to be instantly relieved of his anger at my words.
“Looks like a fighter, is that right?”
“You saw it right. Because of that, I had a hard time shooting the bow and dealing with the goddess running through the forest.”
“Hmm…”
To be honest, Neri’s misunderstanding wasn’t a very misunderstanding.
To be honest, Artemis was an object of lust or conquest for me, not a haven to be cared for and loved like Neri, or an object of love.
For now, it’s important to coax the sea god in front of me and go see Neri.
I disguised myself as a religious and respectful believer as much as possible, bowed down and bowed respectfully in front of the god of the sea.
“I greet you, albeit belatedly. Greetings to Poseidon, Lord of the seas, who brings the white waves.”
“Hmm… Ok, I’m also glad to see the old nightmother’s newly born son.”
“Yes?”
Wait, what?
When I looked up in amazement at a story I hadn’t imagined, there was Poseidon’s grim face smiling at me.
“Why, by any chance, did you think I wouldn’t even know the identity of my son-in-law, who would become my sister-in-law?”
“No, how to…”
My lineage, that is, that the being from which I was reincarnated was the goddess of the old night, a story that only Hera and Hermes and my sisters Nemesis and Eris knew.
I doubted if the story had spread through Hermes, but I heard that the goddess Hera silenced her.
A god I had never seen before saw through my lineage at first sight.
Looking at me visibly embarrassed, the god of the sea stroked his beard as if he was amused.
“First of all, I think we have a lot to say…. First of all, your throat will be sore. Shall we talk over a drink?”
And then, before he knew it, he handed out a huge barrel of wine that could fit in his big hand, and a bizarre meeting with Poseidon or his father-in-law began.
* * *
Now, let’s think about it.
In exchange for someone falling into the world of Greek mythology and being treated like a god, almost like a god.
What if the father-in-law and his precious daughter Ulrin’s son-in-law meet and create a masterpiece?
What do you think?
The correct answer is.
It is unexpectedly fun.
“Keuh~ At that time, I really thought I was going to die! Because my father-in-law hit me in the head while lifting a volcano in the deep sea. It wasn’t long before the war with the damn old people was over, and the neck that had been half blown was barely attached. Chuckle.”
“Keuhehehehe… Honestly, did you think you did something right? But a deep-sea volcano?”
“That’s what you say dude! But honestly, Amphitrite was so pretty. What can I do?”
“Amman, since I bossed the girl up on the spot just because she was pretty, I honestly have to take into account getting beaten up by her father. Honestly I’m not that picky. But a volcano?”
“That’s crazy. I don’t know what bossam is, but I do know that you dared to insult God. Aren’t you afraid of this treeina?”
“If you are a god or a human being, how can you live in fear if you can’t even say anything? Bite your tongue and die
But were you really hit by a volcano?”
Luxuriously, God has brought alcohol, so it is of course my responsibility to prepare snacks.
Fortunately, in Messenia, where everything from the sea to the land is abundant, with a little effort, it was possible to prepare enough side dishes even on the bare land.
In addition, since I am also a god who handles divine power, I can create something out of nothing, and in an instant, Poseidon and I drank in front of a fairly reasonable snack table.
“That volcano, I hate to see it, but Amphitrite brought it to the back of my palace and decorated it as a keepsake from a scolding of her beaten husband.”
“hahahaha! Oh, then, for the sake of the deep-sea volcano to slap noble Poseidon on the head…”
“”Cheers!””
Tuong! The huge pot collided lightly with a dull sound.
Pure white foam exploded like a volcano from the swaying wine jar.
From the raw fish spread out below it to the slow-tasting Maeuntang Bismuth.
It was a table for fishermen without fail.
For your reference, spices are sponsored by Poseidon, and many trade ships travel here and there through the Mediterranean Sea.
I received everything as a tribute, but now the sea god that I like to use is a bonus.
“Cheer… Wine is good too, but when guys are drinking, this mat is the best. There’s nothing cool and refreshing like this.”
“Kheu~ It’s my first time drinking beer in this town, and I missed the taste.”
What?
It seems like you’ve done all sorts of crazy things before, but how come you’re doing a great job with your father-in-law?
Since when did the lord of the sea, one of the three great gods of Greece, say that he is talking to the lord of the sea?
No, to be honest, Nerine’s older sister is Amphitrite and her husband is Poseidon, so the elder brother should be more roughly matched than the father-in-law …
“Hey, kid. Isn’t that stew over cooked?”
“What if it’s not ripe? It’s not like me or my older brother can eat and get rid of it, right?”
I don’t know.
It should be fun.
At first, I was also a bit awkward, and since I had a crime related to Neri, I had no choice but to hit my head.
“…So, when the emperor stopped the princess’ tryst with her teacher, Zhang Chun ran to the palace alone with a spear. A huge gate that far exceeded the Great Temple of Athena opened, and an army of 10,000 marched towards him.”
“Ohh… I swear to Styx, was it really all work? How can you have so many soldiers?”
“The population is very different here. It’s not a place where all kinds of kingdoms are scattered like in Greece, is it called an empire for nothing? Anyway, the soldiers flutter like fallen leaves in front of the wind from that stormy window…”
The 12 demons that I memorize 100%… No, the Twelve Gods or the Murim stories I’ve been through.
“Do you know Antaeus? He is my proud son.
He established a kingdom on his own and holds a monthly wrestling tournament with a golden skull at stake.
If he wins, he will give him the golden skull as a reward, and if he loses, he will give the skull to Gaia-sama’s temple and recruit the losers into his army.
But until now, the golden skull has never left the child’s territory.”
“Huh, that wasn’t a real human skull, it was skull-shaped gold…”
“Yeah, dude! These days, if you say you cut off a person’s hair and offer it as an offering, Zeus will wait and see. Anyway, check back later. Since you’re like a guy with one fist, you’ll probably welcome him with both hands open.”
“Ah, I heard it even in the forest. It’s because I don’t go out of the country as the priest of Gaia and Poseidon.
If you come out into the world, all of Greece will turn upside down. There are several guys I’ll be looking for when I leave the forest later.”
“Ha ha ha ha! Is it because they are the sprouts of heroes? The eyes are high. By the way, do you know the name of the army he is organizing?”
“What is it? I think I know a little about it, but…”
“The name of the defenders is Gaia’s shield, and the name of the attackers is Poseidon’s spear! Ha ha ha! Isn’t that wonderful? There is no filial son like this in the world!”
The truth of the myth I originally knew and the exciting behind the myth that Poseidon unravels.
As the alcohol goes in, the atmosphere between me and Poseidon is completely disarmed.
As they drank the unexpectedly strong and unexpectedly cool ancient beer with their bets and spiritual powers still, both of them were intoxicated in an instant.
“Cheer… This tastes good, doesn’t it? It’s spicy, so I’d like to boil it while fishing.”
“Because the ingredients are good. Especially because the fish is fresh.”
That’s why it’s time to take a break from drinking and talking for a while.
I stopped my tingling chin from talking so much and my stinging throat from drinking beer nonstop.
Me and Poseidon slowly ate snacks.
“Yeah… Big brother.”
“Why is it wrong? Well, even if you don’t tell me, you’ll know by looking at my face.”
Poseidon sneered as he munched on an unknown raw fish that had been cut into large pieces to match his size.
“Ahhhhh… Neri. Did you cry a lot?”
“Kheung, I already thought that Neri would go through a hard time like Amphi because he already touched a goddess and even had a human woman as his lover. He’s a surprisingly healthy guy.”
“No, Artemis is light years away…”
I was really stabbed in my heart, but I can’t say that I violated the goddess of chastity and played around. And fell to the floor.
“Heh heh, where are you stealing a cow and giving out a pig’s hoof?”
Poseidon, who took another shot of beer while giggling at the neck of a baby’s fist, looked at me as if he was dumbfounded and said,
“Little demigod, son of Nyx. Does a god who has lived since the age of the titans look ridiculous?
The unbridled colt of Zeus lost to you after a confrontation and just gave up?”
Ha! Wouldn’t it be better to say that Cerberus was taken for a walk on the ground by a human hand?
Stop talking nonsense, Poseidon shook his head.
“I swear by the river Styx, so I can’t speak. Artemis, when you see that crazy thing is defeated after a fight and no sunlight or thunderbolt fell on your head, at least you did something to make it shut up.
Of course, the guy was involved, and if that light-mouthed thing was to be shut up, it would most likely have been stern.”
Right?
I had no choice but to keep my mouth shut at the words of Poseidon, who glanced over the glass he raised again.
As expected, it was an insight worthy of one of the supreme gods.

Or it’s an experience story worthy of being involved in numerous scandals.
“Kuhmm, that, that’s it…”
“Huh? Aren’t you trying to scold? Would you like to compliment me?”
“Yes?”
What is this again?
“Is it unexpected? I am defending you, not Artemis.”
“Yeah, right?”
Isn’t Artemis my niece? There he left Neri and laid his hand on another woman, thinking she probably wouldn’t get over it.
Rather, Poseidon laughed quietly and ate his snack.
“Keuhehehehe. Shall I honestly talk about my feelings? Rather, I would like to give you a prize.”
-Wooddeuk!
His Mediterranean blue eyes shimmered with passion, and the slowly cracking wine bottle in his hand spoke for his anger.
However, if there was a difference from before, the anger was not directed at me, but toward someone else.
“Artemis, Apollo. The place occupied by those idiots did not originally belong to them.”
“Yes?”
What is this again?
I put the bottle down quietly and listened to the atmosphere of Poseidon that changed in an instant and the completely unexpected flow of the story.
“Brilliant Olympus, dazzling Olympus. Twelve thrones at its center. Originally, those who should have occupied two seats were not twins who gained prestige through their father’s belly!!”
As if responding to his wrath, the restless waves of the sea calmed down, dark clouds instantly fell over the bright sky, and a strong wind and rain began to come.
-Shuaaah..!
“Karibdis, my pretty daughter. Antaeus, my proud son.
As the goddess of ferocious storms and the representative of ferocious earthquakes, they were the children who should have been elevated to the divine ranks of Olympus!”
“Oh…”
The other side of a myth I never knew about.
It was the moment when the anecdotes of the gods were revealed.
