A crisp sound echoed in the room. Zeus expressionlessly watched Hades, who was squatting in the corner, clutching her reddened paw and looking sorrowful. Lately, this fellow had been too audacious, extending her 'An Lushan's claw' to sneak attack Zeus's chest without her permission. Several times before, this fellow almost succeeded.
Recently, as Zeus's body recovered, she became more and more skilled at dealing with Hades's'sneak attacks'. As soon as she felt something was off, she would directly slap her, almost always hitting a certain Hades.
After drinking the last sip of soup, Zeus disdainfully cast a look of contempt at the husky… ahem! Hades in the corner. Lately, she really couldn't understand why this fellow was exhibiting such hentai behavior. You've already 'eaten the meat', so why do you still care about this soup? Is it that you want to devour Zeus completely before you can stop this behavior?
"What exactly do you want?"
Finally, Zeus gave up on bickering with this fellow and walked over to the husky, oh no! Hades, asking with a helpless tone. It was better to ask directly than to keep guessing.
"I want milk!"
"Can't you have goat's milk?"
"I want yours."
"Why did you hit me?"
Upon hearing Hades's reason, Zeus didn't even think, directly slapping her on the dog's head... ahem (my throat isn't well lately). Zeus no longer wanted to say anything to this shameless fellow! Finally, hearing Hades's question, Zeus directly turned and left. She didn't want to spend another moment with this limitless elder sister; it was completely asking for trouble.
Touching the red palm print on her head, Hades silently watched Zeus leave. In her eyes, these were all Zeus's shy actions.
"We're already 'an old married couple', what's there to be shy about?!"
Hades felt that the phrase, which she had learned from some book, fit this situation perfectly.
"But why won't she let me sleep with her, and instead holds those two little ones? It's too much."
"Indeed, those two little things are an obstacle."
Thinking this, a cold sneer appeared on Hades's face. If they interfered with her and Zeus's 'loving' life, even her own children were unforgivable. She had to find an opportunity to throw those two little things out.
However, Hades didn't notice that there was a gap in the door through which Zeus had left. On the other side of the gap, a pair of beautiful eyes was watching her, so Hades's recent actions and self-talk were all overheard by the person on the other side of the door.
"This perverted hentai, she's even jealous of the children. No, if I leave, these two little ones will be miserable."
"It seems I'll have to entrust them to someone else."
Not lingering, Zeus turned and left, heading to her room. With the black cloak draped over her, Hades couldn't sense her presence if she was more than three meters away, which is why Hades never realized Zeus was eavesdropping.
"To whom should I entrust them? Poseidon? No, she's the most unreliable of all."
"Hera? No, she's not the type to take care of children. If I leave the children with her, they'll probably be dropped to their deaths."
"Demeter? It seems possible, but is she available? Besides, she's so smart, she'd be very conspicuous."
"Then there's only the inconspicuous Hestia. She'll do."
Thinking this, Zeus stopped pacing in her room. She hugged her two children and ran out of the house. Now that her body had recovered, it was time to leave this world.
Wrapping herself and her children in her cloak, Zeus flew towards the exit of the Underworld.
Because of the cloak's power, Hades didn't even notice Zeus's departure. By the time she did, Zeus would probably have already left this world.
"It's been a long time since I've stepped on this familiar land."
After Zeus walked out of the Underworld exit with her two children, she couldn't help but sigh at the beautiful scenery. But then, Zeus put her middle and index fingers to her lips and blew a loud whistle.
This was her signal with Little Ha. The hearing of a mythical beast was far superior to that of a god. After Zeus whistled, Little Ha, far away in the Celestial Realm, instantly perked up her snow-white ears. Then she excitedly stood up and began to fly in the direction of the sound. This sound was known only to her and her master, so her master had returned.
Master, do you know how much I miss you? I don't eat enough or sleep well every day, and I'm scolded by that crazy woman (Gaia) every day, saying I'm useless. Really, Baby's life is so hard! Thinking this, Little Ha shed two dog tears and flew even faster.
"Woof~ Ooh (Master, I'm coming.)"
"What's that idiot doing?"
Gaia, who had just woken up, was attracted by Little Ha's barking. She hadn't intended to pay attention, but then she thought, 'I have nothing to do anyway, why not go out for a walk?' Thinking this, Gaia slowly flew along the path Little Ha had taken.
"Woof Ooh Woof~ Woof! (Master, Baby missed you so much!)"
It should be said that she was indeed a mythical beast. What would normally take half a day to fly, this creature covered in just half an hour. She didn't recognize Zeus at first, because of the black cloak, she didn't smell the familiar scent. When Zeus took off her hood, she couldn't help but go up and lick her frantically, whimpering plaintively.
"Good girl! Good girl, it's really been a long time."
Touching the familiar fur, Zeus couldn't help but say with emotion.
"I have a task for you. If you complete it, I'll give you roasted chicken."
Feeling that she couldn't delay any longer, she quickly gave Little Ha a command.
"Woof! Ooh! (Guaranteed, complete.)"
As soon as she heard 'roasted chicken,' Little Ha's eyes lit up, and saliva flowed all over the ground.
"Send these two little ones to my green-haired sister. You should remember her scent, right?"
"Ooh~! (I remember.)"
Watching Little Ha nod, Zeus smiled with satisfaction, then tied the children and a letter onto Little Ha's back.
"Be careful not to drop them. There will be roasted chicken when you come back."
"Woof~ Ooh, (With plenty of sauce, please!)"
After Zeus finished speaking, Little Ha quickly ran in one direction. Zeus didn't notice that when Little Ha was being affectionate with her, a corner of her cloak had been hooked by a dog's paw. As Little Ha ran, the cloak on Zeus also ran along, hanging from Little Ha's leg.
"...Damn it!"
Feeling something was wrong with her body and seeing Little Ha's receding figure, Zeus couldn't help but utter a curse.
"Hurry and leave."
"This feeling is!? Zeus."
Gaia, flying leisurely in the air, felt it immediately. Her eyes widened, and she was no longer leisurely, directly activating instant transmission and teleporting in the direction of her perception.
"You."
"Zeus, I missed you so much."
Zeus, who hadn't even walked two steps, was directly met by the teleported Gaia. Before Zeus could react, Gaia stepped forward and hugged Zeus tightly, expressing her longing.
