Greek Demon Myth - Greek Demon Myth chapter 116
116 – City of Poseidon.
Where all ocean currents originate, where all waters converge, the deepest part of the sea.
However, a place that no one has dared to see with their eyes or touch with their hands.
All these significant nicknames refer to the palace of Poseidon, Lord of the Seas.
Zeus’s Olympus, where everyone wishes at least once in their life that the goddesses of fate guide their destiny.
The kingdom of Hades, which is feared by everyone but eventually visited.
And Poseidon’s territory, where no god or hero can set foot unless Poseidon invites him directly.
A place that was not even mentioned in the myths I had heard about, and the myths that were actually revealed were almost non-existent.
I was fortunate enough to be guided by Poseidon’s hand and enjoy the honor of looking down from the highest (?) Place.
How far did it go down to the sea by the current after being thrown into the hands of Poseidon?
You must be nervous inside as the surroundings are slowly getting darker without sunlight.
Something huge shimmered in the deep sea.
The ocean currents burned by Poseidon also seemed to be heading toward that light, so if you looked closely, you could see that a huge city nestled deep in the dark sea was slowly approaching.
“…Atlantis?”
Why, that’s it.
On Sunday morning, the Mystery Pro, on the day of Heguheon, the ancient city of the sea trembled misleadingly because it was discovered all over the place.
There was no other way to explain it.
Have you ever been to an amusement park or a water park?
Away from the busy commute, lukewarm bus fumes, and high-pressure looking down at the forest of buildings, the place decorated like a different world presented a dreamy escape as if it reproduced human fantasy and imagination as it is.
And a myth that can be said to be the starting point of such dreams and imaginations.
It was almost an insult to compare the kingdom of Poseidon, a sea god, an axis of the myth, with such human amusement facilities.
“Hiyaaa..!”
In the middle of the vast plain of the deep sea, an outer wall glittering with pure white marble and an unknown jewel encircles the city.
Above and below, as if flying in the sky, gigantic seahorses and fish were swimming busily driving carriages or wagons like horses on the ground.
On top of the shells of giant sea turtles swimming in rows along the wide street, vendors selling food, fruits, seaweed, and miscellaneous goods are busily soliciting customers, bargaining with vendors, or leisurely taking pet sharks and crocodiles for a walk. There were also these.
And those people are fish people with webbing and gills instead of ears, or the mermaids I am familiar with.
Compared to the humans I’ve seen, they were very heterogeneous beings, but they were walking around their city energetically, laughing and chatting like other people.
And most mysterious of all was the city itself.
A 20-story insula built entirely out of a huge rock, a domus with huge corals or sea anemones, the size of which is equivalent to the manor of the Namgung family, and a mysterious stone temple covered with barnacles and luminous moss.
Above all, the greatest thing is the huge palace overlooking such a kingdom from a high place.
And it was a gigantic stone statue of Poseidon that seemed to be very tall even from a far-flung height.
The jewel of the trident held aloft by the stone statue emitted a soft light with strong energy, brightly illuminating the surrounding area.
“It’s nice…?”
It was a majestic sight that truly makes the words “City of the Sea” And “Kingdom of the Sea” Come out.
“Ah! You also have eyes to see. That jewel is none other than Gaia’s gift to Poseidon, and it is the jewel among jewels called the heart of the deep sea. It shows the majesty of Poseidon to the whole sea, and at the same time, it can be said to be a collection of tremendous powers, divine powers, and technologies such as the city’s protective wall, water temperature control, and light intensity control. It is also called Poseidon’s Lighthouse because it follows the light of the heart whenever the inhabitants of the sea come to see the Lord of the Sea.”
“…?”
I wonder if I’ve reached my destination, but I’m falling, no, the speed of diving is gradually decreasing.
Some talkative voice shot tmi in my ear with a rapid fire.
If I try to turn my gaze toward the meddler who intervened in the midst of my genuinely moving emotions.
A dolphin was staring at me and flapping her fins.
“Ah! Somehow it smelled like land. This is won! All of a sudden, land humans only go back and forth to Olympus or the courts of wealthy people. Coming to this beautiful and noble palace of Poseidon, you can say that it is a very, very excellent choice. Even the fragrance of this orphaned soul. He must have been born with a great lineage. Delpesias, just an honor to meet such a great hero! What an honor!”
“No, no wait. Wait for a sec. Maybe this…”
I heard that I fell into this mythical world and read all kinds of articles, but is the dolphin talking to me?
Even the terribly talkative dolphin?
“Uh…?”
At least Chiron and the Centaurs were half-human.
“Aha, are you surprised? Well, I’m sure you’ve never seen a delphini with fins as well-informed, well-informed, and stylish as I am on the ground.
Thanks to Hermes for leading me to meet you!
Greetings from Delphini and Delpesias, who are in charge of hospitality and foreign affairs at the court of Poseidon.
The court of Poseidon welcomes you. A warrior from the land.”
“Uh…That, nice to meet you. My name is Dianes.”
It was still a long way before landing, to the point where I could barely see the whole view of the kingdom, and I was also interested in the guide who was beyond mythical and even allegorical.
I decided to listen to the dolphin’s chatter in silence.
Maybe you can hear the story of Neri.
The dolphin, or Delphini, who introduced herself as Delpesias, greeted me with a pretty friendly attitude.
It was a little crazy to talk a lot, no, very, very much.
Anyway, according to his explanation, those dolphins with high spirituality are a race called Delphini, and the dolphins themselves are the descendants of the brave dolphin Delphini in the constellation, in honor of Poseidon’s great help to Amphitrite when he was courting Amphitrite in the distant past. They are said to be heavily used in Poseidon’s palace.
“Hey~ Amphitrite and Poseidon fight every day. In the aftermath alone, a great storm often occurs at sea. That’s enough for that simple quarrel, but how crazy it must have been when they were fighting for courtship in the past… We, the descendants of Delphini, always long for the courage of our ancestors who stood in the middle of that epic war to save Amphitrite and prevent Poseidon’s mistake. . And the hero who stepped into this kingdom under the guidance of such a great Poseidon must be a great person, right?”
“hahahaha, it’s still a long way off.”
“You are so humble! However, this Delpesias has lived as a hospitality in Poseidon’s palace for quite some time. Seeing that Poseidon personally invited me to the kingdom and sent me as a guide, he must be a great hero. Did Dianes also allow Poseidon to become a suitor for Nesneria, the daughter of Oceanos, the treasure of the sea? Also “
Among Delpesias’ noisily continued words, a word came out that I couldn’t just pass by.
Becoming Nesneria’s suitor?
“What now…?”
“Yes. Poseidon-sama also presented Pegasus as a gift for marriage, and Amphitrite-nim, Thetis-nim, and their sisters also presented all kinds of jewels, magic tricks, and elixirs. Anyone can try it.”
“No, let’s put aside all that trivial stuff for a second. What did you just say? Nesneria’s suitor?”
The suitor.
In other words, it refers to those who apply for marriage.
But Delpesias seems like I’m not the only suitor?
“Uh…well, why are you suddenly so frightened? Since Poseidon-sama came all the way to this deep sea, I thought you were attending Nesneria-sama’s courtship ceremony…?”
“So. Is Neri being courted?”
…Oh, Neri.
What the hell are you doing in just one day?
* * *
Amphitrite, queen of the sea, ruler of the deep sea, storm and tidal wave, wrath and calamity.
As her nickname suggests, she was a very beautiful and very dangerous goddess.
Long blue hair that descends to the floor like a tidal wave covering the sky, and a voluptuous brown spiritual body shimmering blue.
Her cold-looking beauty was revealing her unconcealable temperament, and that was the scar that ran across her intensely shining right eye.
Rejecting Poseidon’s proposal in the past, the end of a confrontation with him that lasted for over ten years.
Amphitrite, who had lost her strength, allowed Poseidon to take the blow.
Poseidon, who had no intention of going that far, was shocked right after he launched an attack, but lost was defeated.
She quietly entrusted herself to her hands and later recognized and married Poseidon and continued the rule of the sea with him.
Her earthly joker and Olympian’s little sun god told her that she was married to Poseidon at the tip of her dolphin while she was running away, but who cares about the bullsh*t of the little sun god who didn’t even have blood on her head?
“Kleurrr….”
Anyway, that Amphitrite was very, very uncomfortable last night.
To a certain extent, even Poseidon, the owner of this palace and her kingdom, sees her in the morning and falls into her tail and runs away.
Well, because of Poseidon’s endless winds, she was an Amphitrite who was as energetic as Hera in all four seasons.
Today’s anger was different from that everyday anger.
“Uh, unni… No matter how much…”
“Neri, I told you. Beasts with stuff on their lower legs shouldn’t just say it.”
The reason is that the pretty maknae is wearing the beautiful custom made Athena robe in front of her.
It was not because of the palace of her mother Tetus, but because of Nesneria, who came crying to her villa.
‘Huh! Older sister Yii…!’
‘Neri?! What’s happening!’
She was the youngest sister who came crying in her office while she was doing her work until late at night.
I heard from Galatea that, unlike the stupid sisters who only waited for the prince, the clever Neri captured her man with her own hands.
For her to come to him crying like that, the Deep Sea Kingdom, which had crossed the Storm Palace, was about to turn upside down.
And the whole story she was talking about was all the more spectacle.
It’s as if the hero who dared to put that precious treasure of the sea as his lover, and the hero who was said to be his partner embraced another woman.
Amphitrite, furious at this, immediately prepared a revenge play that would turn this damn man’s outfit upside down.
It was Nesneria’s courtship.
“Ha, but I’m still with Dia…”
“Too back, our water droplets, you go back.”
It is the truth of the world that if I made tears flow from my lover’s eyes, then tears of blood should flow from those eyes.
Even after seeing the fact that this good-natured little sister was blinded by her mate, she still seemed to be unable to let go of her heart.
“No matter how much it is said that it is instinct for men to sow their seeds in all directions.
From noble mtl dot com
There is a degree. Are you already turning a blind eye to your wife, who will not be enough even if you serve her for the rest of your life?”
“But, for me…”
“Whoa…”
No, it’s completely gone.
She cried all night in her sister’s arms, and even though her beautiful eyes were swollen, she still thought of her youngest brother as a son of a b*tch.
For Amphitrite, who knows how strong and strong the love of nymphs is, all she can do is sigh…
“I can’t do it, sister, I’ll go and meet you for a while. We need to talk…”
“Neri, no.”
“Why! My, maybe I misunderstood!”
Actually, Neri was right.
What Neri saw was a son of a b*tch who had returned from the middle of the night and had fallen asleep in the bathtub.
However, he felt the scent of another stranger strong all over his body, so he must have run to her eldest sister who was close to her, shocked by her tender heart.
‘Honestly, that son of a b*tch was lucky.’
For one thing, she’s not the other daughter, and if word gets to her father’s ears that Neri cried over a man…
‘…Ugh.’
A huge wave that will cross over the kingdom of the deep sea and cover even Olympus will hit Greece.
Only that son of a b*tch. To catch that son of a b*tch.
‘Perhaps Neri knew that and came to me…’
In any event, Amphitrite, the queen of the sea, needed to prevent the misfortune of Neri crying because of that son of a b*tch, and the news reaching her father’s ears.
I had to imprint who was the actual wife in the head of that shameful son of a b*tch.
“Listen carefully, Neri. What do you think deepening love is?”
“Love?”
Neri’s eyes widen in an instant at the word love.
The sight made Amphitrite’s head throb, but she endured it with all her patience.
“Yes, there is a long bond between you and that son of a b*tch… Hmmm, Dianes.
You don’t know if he loves you as much as you think.”
“No. Dia also me…”
“So. He should test how much he cares for you and how far he can go for you. Listen carefully…”
Around the time when the sisters sharpen their teeth and the conversation slowly heats up.
This happened.
-Koo Goong!
“Wow?!”
“Neri!”
An intense shock that shook Poseidon’s palace and a huge aura that began to be felt at the same time.
An unprecedented knight in the history of the deep sea kingdom, where no threat existed except for the wrath of Poseidon and Amphitrite, cut off the argument between the sisters.
“How dare… What god show such disrespect in Poseidon’s palace!”
“Uh… This aura…?”
As Amphitrite was gnashing her teeth as she cradled her almost-fallen brother in her arms, her adjutant rushed over and reported the situation.
“Your Majesty! It’s an intruder!”
“Who the hell is going to break into Poseidon’s palace! Have the personnel and affiliations been confirmed!”
“That, that’s…”
The mermaid, who had been Amphitrite’s lieutenant for most of her life, hesitated as if she couldn’t even believe herself, then opened her mouth with difficulty.
“Chi, there is only one intruder! Po, it is said that Poseidon-sama has invited you to land!”
“What…?!”
Now that the outside intruder has been heard, we must evacuate the most precious treasure first.
“Neri! This way right away… Neri?”
However, the most precious and dangerous water droplets in the sea did not show up before I knew it.
“…God Pontos.”
With a sense of dizziness, only Amphitrite’s lament remained.
