Chapter 55 The god of business can't do business at a loss
Gaia was delighted by the scene he imagined, and his mood relaxed again.
She glanced at Aphrodite coldly, pretending that she didn't see Cupid's frowning reluctance, hugged him very intimately, and pretended to be distressed and said, "Aphrodite, he is you. And Ares' child, why does the little guy look so small?"
Gaia frowned quietly. Isn't Eros a god? The level of the godhead is obviously very high, but why is he still in a puppy stage like a human? No matter how good it is, it's okay to grow up in the wind like Hermes.
How could such a child have sex with her?
Aphrodite glanced at Gaia lightly, pushed her hand away, and Cupid, who had recovered his freedom, hurriedly threw himself into his arms and buried his little head.
Aphrodite said plainly: "Cupid... I used special means to induce him to grow up. Although the level of godhood is high, the accumulation of power is not enough, so he looks very small."
When Gaia heard the words, he was immediately anxious: "Then why did you give birth to him? Can't you let him conceive slowly? It's alright now, he looks like a child!"
Aphrodite was gently patting Cupid's back, and Cupid's little white wings dodged left and right, for fear of being accidentally patted by the Father.
Hearing this, he sneered: "He is my child, I am happy to let him be born how he is born, what does it have to do with you?"
Hearing the words, Gaia rolled his eyes, knelt down beside Aphrodite, and said to Cupid: "My poor child, listen to what your father said, he used such cruel means to get you ahead of schedule. He was born, but he didn't even feel any guilt, he was so indifferent!"
Cupid stuck his head out from Aphrodite's arms, and he glanced at Gaia curiously, and seemed to think that Gaia's eloquent appearance was very funny, and he giggled with joy.
As for Gaia's provocation, it went in and out of Cupid's left ear and left no trace.
Gaia was embarrassed and a little embarrassed by Cupid's smile.
Aphrodite said lightly: "God Gaia, Cupid is still a child, and he can't understand what you say to him."
Gaia hurriedly said: "That's it. He is obviously a god, but he is as stupid as a human child. It would be ridiculous for other gods to see this. Aphrodite, you have to help Cupid grow up quickly. ."
This time, Cupid heard the words in his head, he puffed his cheeks angrily, and said unhappily: "You are the fool, you are the big fool! Just a little~"
Cupid pulled his eyelids with his fingers, stuck his tongue out at Gaia and rolled his eyes, and Gaia suddenly became embarrassed.
She looked at Aphrodite speechlessly, pointed at Cupid and said, "Aphrodite, look at him like this..."
Aphrodite touched Cupid's head, smiling lightly but calmly: "Cupid, don't be naughty."
Cupid fluttered his small wings depressed and flew up, defending himself: "I'm not naughty, it's a bad goddess, she first said I was a fool!"
Aphrodite flicked his forehead lightly, and when she looked at Gaia again, the smile on her face almost disappeared: "God Gaia, you heard it, Cupid knew that you were scolding him, He's no idiot."
Gaia was speechless, no longer entangled with Cupid's IQ, and said lightly: "Anyway, it is very unrealistic for him to keep this state all the time. Aphrodite, you have to plan for him as soon as possible."
Aphrodite's eyes moved slightly, he glanced at Cupid, and the cute cub looked at him, blinking his blue eyes, his eyes were smart and cunning.
Aphrodite looked back, sighed softly, and said worriedly, "Cupid is my eldest son, and I really want to help him grow up, but I'm not strong enough..."
Gaia was speechless, and said frantically: "Then why did you let him be born early, and let him slowly conceive in the mother's body without these problems?!"
Aphrodite was silent for a few seconds and retorted: "But I have created several gods before this, and none of them have encountered such a situation. Perhaps the reason for Cupid's young body is not the same as the way he was born. Does it matter?"
"Speaking of which..." Aphrodite narrowed her eyes and asked suspiciously: "His Royal Highness Gaia, you called Cupid Eros just now? Eros is not the name of the fallen primitive god|, why are you? "
Aphrodite looked up and down Gaia in cold confusion, and then looked at Cupid with the same eyes.
When Aphrodite looked over with her scrutinizing eyes, Cupid, who was a little slow to respond, didn't immediately notice Aphrodite's plan. He was frightened by the look in God's father's eyes. They couldn't move, and fell from the air in a panic.
Seeing this, Aphrodite quickly reached out and took Cupid in her arms. Cupid looked at him uneasily, hugged his hand and whispered, "Father..."
Aphrodite sighed lightly. He forgot that Cupid was still a child. Although he didn't know the difference between a young god and an adult god, he couldn't be demanded by the standard of an adult god.
Aphrodite's thoughts flew in her heart, he pressed Cupid's head into his arms, and when the fair face was raised again, his face had changed from cold doubt to dignified fear.
Aphrodite didn't let Cupid see her face, she just looked at Gaia fixedly and said, "I'll take Cupid back first. Regarding the relationship between Cupid and Eros, I hope God Gaia will wait. Give me a reasonable explanation."
After speaking, he deliberately lowered his head and glanced at Cupid in his arms.
He expressed his "doubt and vigilance" about Cupid's origin to the fullest, for fear that Gaia would not see the same.
Then he took Cupid back to his temple.
And Gaia's reaction was just as Aphrodite thought, and her mood changed from being questioned to excitement.
Gaia had an idea and an idea, she thought excitedly, she just wanted to use Cupid as a converter of Eros' power, she didn't care about Cupid's mood.
If she concealed Cupid's 'true origin', Aphrodite might still be on her guard.
But if you tell Aphrodite completely that Cupid is 'Eros', and tell Aphrodite that if you let Cupid grow up by his side, you will take away his power.
With Aphrodite's ambition and desire for power, he will definitely not protect Cupid again!
At that time, wouldn't Cupid, who has no support, be occupied by her and let her do whatever she wants? !
After thinking of this, Gaia immediately became excited and chased out in the direction where Aphrodite and his son left.
After getting rid of Gaia, Aphrodite quickly comforted Cupid and asked warmly, "Cupid, were you scared by God the Father just now?"
The young god opened his watery eyes, his blue-blue eyes were as clear and translucent as the washed violet, he stood on tiptoe on Aphrodite's lap, and lightly bumped Aphrodite with his head. Dite's face, aggrieved: "Father, you are just scary..."
Aphrodite pinched his ears, smiled and asked, "Cupid, the goddess just now was Gaia, the goddess of the earth, do you know who Gaia and Eros are... and why Gaia calls you Eros ?"
Cupid nodded hesitantly, in fact he knew why Gaia called him Eros.
When Narcissus conceived Cupid, he instilled in Cupid the plans and arrangements for Aphrodite to create him, so Cupid also knew exactly what the meaning of his birth was.
He was mad at Gaia on purpose before, because Narcissus told him that Gaia was plotting against his father, so they all hated Gaia.
Aphrodite murmured a little when she saw that Cupid actually understood, and some wondered what Cupid knew and what he did not understand.
Anyway, Gaia was not here, so he took this opportunity to give Cupid a detailed explanation. It probably means that he pretended to be afraid of Cupid's other identity, the so-called 'reincarnation of the original god Eros'.
Then let Gaia take Cupid by his side to raise him, and then Cupid will act to deceive Gaia, and deceive all the power of Eros sealed by Gaia to be extradited to the polar ice world.
Cupid bit his fingers, his little face wrinkled in a tangled ball, and while peeking at Aphrodite, he twisted and turned, looking like he wanted to move but didn't dare.
Aphrodite looked at the young god with a funny look, and said after a while, "Cupid, if you have any ideas, you can tell the father directly."
Cupid said aggrieved: "Father, I don't like that bad goddess. I like Father and want to be with Father."
Aphrodite pondered, and Cupid fluttered his wings and fell down, sitting at Aphrodite's feet, holding his leg with a look of grievance.
Aphrodite smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, even if God Gaia takes you, you can come to God Father. And Gaia won't necessarily take you with him, even if he takes you, you can Come to God Father, you are just a young God anyway, who can correct you, right?"
Cupid raised his head, looked at Aphrodite eagerly, and said, "Father, I want to grow up too."
Aphrodite patted his head hesitantly and sighed, "Wait a second, if you grow up now, you will be defiled by Gaia."
The little cupid sighed like a sigh, and Aphrodite held him in her arms and patted him lightly, comforting: "No matter what Gaia said to you, don't believe it, you are the only one of God the Father. God Son, God the Father will love you very much, understand, Cupid?"
Cupid swayed back and forth, laughed haha, and said in a delicate tone: "Father, don't flap my wings, it's so itchy!"
Aphrodite didn't feel anything at first, but when she was reminded by Cupid, she couldn't help but pay attention to the little wings of Cupid's wings.
Cupid's wings are not as big as Nemesis's, but this also has to do with Cupid's size.
The pair of wings was about half an arm's length, covered with white feathers, and adorned with glittering fluorescent light, which looked just right on the tender young god, and it was extremely cute in pockets.
Aphrodite frowned and praised: "My child Cupid is really cute."
Cupid covered his face shyly. He opened his fingers and glanced at Aphrodite secretly. Unable to hold back, he threw himself into Aphrodite's arms, hugged his neck and said affectionately, "Father, God, I will always adore you, too! I will never have any disrespect for you, I swear to the Styx!"
As for Gaia, I will also get the power of Eros. This is the meaning and mission of my birth. I am a proud god, and I will not abandon my responsibilities because of my father's favor.
Aphrodite is helpless: "Cupid, don't swear on the River of Styx, because if you accidentally break your oath, the law will punish you."
Cupid didn't take Aphrodite's words to heart, he blinked, innocent and indifferent: "It's okay, because I will never break this oath."
Aphrodite paused, patted his head and stopped talking.
And not long after Aphrodite and Cupid finished communicating, Gaia also chased after the temple.
Aphrodite frowned, and instead of welcoming Gaia into the temple, she went out to meet Gaia with Cupid.
Gaia was very dissatisfied with this: "Aphrodite, is this how you treat guests as the Lord God, and you don't invite me to sit in your temple?"
Aphrodite's brows and eyes were cold: "Let's wait until God Gaia explains the relationship between Cupid and Eros to me."
Gaia's eyes fluttered and she felt a little guilty. She pretended to naturally brush the broken hair to her ear.
Aphrodite transformed into a table and three stone benches, sat down with Gaia and Cupid, and the Nymph fairies came over with teapots and poured a cup of tea for both of them.
Because Cupid is short, he can't reach the table when he sits normally, so he used a kneeling posture and saw Fairy Nymph passing him and went straight away, hurriedly holding the cup and flying after him.
After Cupid left, Gaia, who was turning the cup, breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly said in Aphrodite's ear: "His Royal Highness Aphrodite, in fact, your son Cupid is not an ordinary god, he has A special origin, he is the reincarnation of my younger brother, the primordial god Eros!"
Aphrodite's face sank in coordination, his eyes raised, and a ferocious and terrifying breath rushed toward his face, and he scolded: "His Royal Highness Gaia, do you know what you are talking about? Cupid is my god son, how can he Could it be that Highness Eros?"
Hearing this, Gaia smiled slightly, raised her eyebrows and asked, "I know this is very bizarre. Aphrodite, you don't want to believe it, but I have evidence. I ask you, the cupid that Cupid is holding. How did you get the golden bow?"
Aphrodite suppressed the ridicule in her heart and showed a hesitant look on her face. He pursed his lower lip slightly and said hesitantly, "That's the artifact that Cupid was born with..."
Gaia sneered, her brows lowered, hiding the contempt in her eyes, sipping her tea leisurely, and slowly said: "Cupid is a god who was not born healthy, how could he bring out such a powerful artifact as the golden bow of love? I tell The true origin of your golden bow of love, it is the weapon my little brother Eros used before he fell, and it is an artifact as powerful as my bottle of life!"
Aphrodite's face changed, Gaia proudly looked at the supreme god whose prestige was widely spread in the realm of the gods, and admired watching him lose his temper because of his own layout plan, and continued to make up for the knife: "Aphrodite Te, did you know that after the death of Eros, his golden bow of love was sealed in the temple of Chaos. You don't even know where the temple of Chaos is?"
Aphrodite thought blankly, I know, I personally went in there once, and I took out the golden bow of love from it.
Gaia was ignorant, and continued to babble in front of Aphrodite: "The temple of Chaos is very mysterious, except for our primitive gods, no god knows where it is, because Chaos is not located here. If Cupid is not Eros, why does the golden bow of love appear in his hand for no reason?"
Aphrodite closed his eyes, and he whispered: "Don't say it anymore, let me think about it in peace."
Gaia pouted softly and said nonchalantly, "The fact is already quite obvious, what else do you want to think about, Aphrodite?"
Aphrodite frowned and said, "His Royal Highness Gaia, Cupid is my eldest son."
Gaia sneered: "Yes, he is not only your eldest son, but also your illegitimate son. Aphrodite, you just lost your temper because he was your first child. But Cupid is to you. It's not that important, you should focus on having children in wedlock."
Gaia worked hard to fan the flames beside Aphrodite, trying to lower Cupid's status in Aphrodite's heart, so as to better control Cupid in the future.
Aphrodite hesitated on the face, but she was very unhappy because of Gaia's words.
He had no plans to marry anyone at all, so he would never have a child in wedlock. Cupid was conceived by his reflection Narcissus, and he had the cheek to think that rounding up was his own, and that was his favorite child.
It's no wonder that Aphrodite is happy when her favorite child is mocked like this by others.
A cold light flashed in Aphrodite's eyes, thinking about how to fight back against Gaia, but Cupid, who was content with tea, just came back.
After listening to all Gaia's demeaning words, the young god immediately turned red, and he screamed, looking like he was about to explode, flapping his wings and rushing towards him, he poured the hot tea in his hand all at once. on Gaia.
He pushed Gaia angrily, with red eyes around his eyes, and shouted: "Bad goddess, go away, go away! You are not allowed to talk to my father!"
Gaia was poured full of tea by Cupid, and her beautiful face was immediately contorted.
She waved the young god without a smile, smiling arrogantly and indifferently: "Cupid, I just told the truth. I have nothing else to say. I wanted to hide it for you. In this case, it's easy. Say it."
She raised her chin at Aphrodite and said casually: "Aphrodite, to be honest, I have long predicted that Eros will take you as a mother and be born again as your child. And , he will eat away your power little by little, replace you, and become the new Eros God!"
Cupid glared fiercely and shouted, "I won't!"
Aphrodite sighed softly, hugged Cupid in her arms and gently comforted her. The big tears immediately fell from the eyes of the young god like broken beads. His clothes were wet, he sobbed, burped sadly, and said aggrievedly, "Father, I won't treat you like that."
Aphrodite was speechless and gently patted the young god on the back to reassure him.
Cupid, have you forgotten that you are not really Eros. We are acting for Gaia, why did you fall for Gaia first?
Aphrodite considered it for a few seconds and asked cautiously, "Is there any way for God Gaia to curb this characteristic?"
Gaia took Aphrodite's frowning expression into his eyes, thinking that he had listened to his words, and immediately said with joy: "Give Cupid to me, and I will solve this problem for you."
Aphrodite looked at her suspiciously and shook her head directly: "No, Cupid is my eldest son after all. I won't give up on him or give him to anyone until he doesn't really make a mistake."
Gaia frowned, a little unhappy, she threatened: "If you are not afraid of death, you can do it!"
Cupid raised his head, grabbed Aphrodite's arm tightly, and gave Gaia a vicious look.
Gaia saw Cupid's eyes, and suddenly his heart jumped, and after realizing it, Cupid seemed to hate her now. Even if Aphrodite gave Cupid to herself, she would not be able to make Cupid cooperate with her to convert the remaining power of Eros.
When Gaia hesitated, Aphrodite had already stood up and looked like she was about to leave with Cupid in her arms. Gaia hurriedly said, "Wait, Aphrodite!"
Aphrodite turned her face to the side and glanced at her coldly, and Gaia said slowly: "I can help you, Aphrodite, but you have to pay me something?"
Gaia really didn't want to be soft with Aphrodite, but except for those erotic powers sealed by Eros, the other erotic powers were in Aphrodite.
Except for Aphrodite and his descendants, no one else has the power of Eros and cannot convert the power of Eros.
After taking a deep breath, Gaia said indifferently: "I can stop Cupid from drawing your power and help him grow, but you have to promise me one condition."
Aphrodite asked casually: "You first say what method you will use. I still mean that, I will not give up on him and let him play with him at will until I am sure of the threat Cupid poses to me."
Gaia frowned, Aphrodite glanced at her lightly, and said lightly: "If Your Highness is sure that I will encounter all this, then wait until I have those situations. But..."
Gaia mentioned a little, and Aphrodite smiled half-smile: "After Cupid was born, I didn't feel the disappearance of my power, on the contrary, I felt that my divine power seemed to have some growth, and it seemed There is a power calling to me, and it keeps infiltrating."
Aphrodite smiled and asked: "His Royal Highness Gaia, His Highness Eros is the God of Eros, but his divine power is at the level of the primordial god. I am also the God of Eros, but only a first-class god. I always feel that the God of Eros Most of the power was sealed with the fall of His Royal Highness Eros. If Cupid is really Eros, then I am now the father of Eros, you say, is it because of this relationship, so is Eros taking him gave me the power of?"
Gaia was shocked. No one except the primitive god knew about Eros' remaining power, but Aphrodite said it. Could it be that Eros did not draw Aphrodite's power, but instead Own power to Aphrodite? !
After Gaia looked at Cupid and looked at Aphrodite's adoring eyes, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this guess was justified, and the whole person suddenly felt bad.
She said with a white face: "This, this, it's impossible, right?"
Aphrodite couldn't deny it and said lightly, "Who knows?"
He sat down on the stone table holding Cupid, patted Cupid's head, and said lightly: "Cupid, His Highness Gaia is a primitive god, you can't just pour tea on your body and apologize to His Highness."
Although Aphrodite asked Cupid to apologize, but the meaning is very clear, not to let him pour you tea, does not mean that you did the right thing, just because of your high status.
Cupid glared at Gaia fiercely, rolled his eyes, and said, "Great-grandmother, I'm sorry just now."
Gaia was startled, then his face changed, and he asked, "Why do you call me great-grandmother?"
Cupid innocently blinked his big bright eyes and smiled happily: "Because you are the mother of the Heavenly King, and the Heavenly King is the father of the Father God. According to the seniority, aren't you my great-grandmother?"
But if it is really based on seniority, the relationship between the gods will be messed up.
Cupid added, "But it's mainly your great-grandmother that you look too old to be like the god of eternal youth, so I call you great-grandmother."
Gaia's hand couldn't help touching her cheek, her face paled a little, and she asked in a trembling voice, "Aphrodite, do I look old?"
Aphrodite looked at her for a moment, and comforted: "His Royal Highness Gaia, you are the mother of the gods, and giving birth to gods is a very expensive thing, so you look very old and normal. "
Gaia's face gradually turned pale, she covered her heart and shook her head in fear and said, "I don't want to grow old..."
Playing with the teacup, Aphrodite smiled slightly when she heard the words: "It's a bit difficult, as a beauty god, I can maintain youth and beauty for His Highness, but this beauty is only temporary, if you want to maintain it for a long time, it is up to you, Your Highness. It is necessary to make up for the lost power that gave birth to the gods."
Gaia's face changed back and forth, suddenly grabbed Aphrodite's hand, and said with a little trembling: "I have a solution for the power thing, Aphrodite, keep my face beautiful for me, I can solve it for you. Problems with Cupid."
Aphrodite said leisurely: "I am very happy to serve His Royal Highness, but I still feel that Cupid has not absorbed my strength. On the contrary, he is still feeding me back. So Cupid has to solve only the physical problem."
Gaia did not speak, but was even more anxious in her heart.
If what Aphrodite said was true, she would have to quickly convert the power sealed by Eros.
Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to complain when she was sucked clean by Aphrodite.
Gaia also wanted to ask Aphrodite for payment, for example, to promise him to wait until Cupid grows up to be his lover.
The words came to her lips, but she swallowed them back. Forget it, Aphrodite would definitely not be happy with this request. If he had told Aphrodite in advance, he might have come up with some idea to calculate himself.
Just hold on until Cupid grows up. It doesn't matter if Cupid is not willing, anyway, she still has a lot of love gold water left by Eros, and there are ways to make Cupid obey.
Gaia thought of this and showed some smiles. She said, "That's it, Aphrodite, give me the ultimate beauty, and I will also give Cupid the power to grow."
Aphrodite looked at her fixedly, smiled slowly, and said, "Okay."
Aphrodite's slender and perfect hand lifted up and landed on Gaia's head, her fingertips touching her eyebrows.
Aphrodite really made a lot of money this time, and gave Gaia quite a lot of beauty. After that beauty was given to Gaia, Gaia instantly became radiant, her blonde hair shimmered the brightest ever The luster, the skin is white, plump and delicate, and the blue eyes are also full of water.
On the contrary, Aphrodite's expression was obviously tired, and her smooth and smooth silver hair was dull and lost its luster. However, even if he lost his vitality and spirit, as a beauty god, Aphrodite's beauty was not compromised because of this, but changed from that kind of sharp and pressing beauty to a decadent and lazy beauty. He held his chin and his eyes were dull. , like a fallen and lost angel, dangerous but seductive.
At Aphrodite's gesture, the fairy Nymph held the mirror and showed it to Gaia. Gaia looked at the radiant and agile woman in the mirror, as if she had seen herself when she was just born and had not conceived any gods. She was astonishingly beautiful. Extreme.
Aphrodite chuckled lazily, with a faint cold light in his eyes, and his voice was extremely light, like the catkins in spring, and dissipated as soon as it blew: "His Royal Highness Gaia, it's time to fulfill your promise."
Gaia's eyes turned, Aphrodite's index finger touched his lips lightly, he curled his lips into a smile, and the scattered light in the bottom of his eyes condensed a little.
Gaia subconsciously looked down at the mirror, the beauty of the goddess in the mirror gradually dimmed...
Gaia's face changed, and his voice was sharp as if to pierce the eardrum: "I give it! I will give it to Cupid now!"
The goddess looked at herself in the mirror in horror, and said anxiously, "Give me back my beauty, Aphrodite, and I will give my strength to Cupid now!"
Aphrodite looked at her coldly, without a trace of emotion in her eyes.
Gaia gritted his teeth, took out a palm-sized golden bead, and stuffed it into Cupid's mouth roughly and impatiently.
Cupid knew that the golden bead was the power of Eros, so it hurt a little, but he swallowed the golden bead with difficulty, and his face was flushed by Gaia's action.
Aphrodite felt the power coming into the world of extreme ice from Cupid's body, and blew lightly on his red cheeks.
And Gaia's face in the mirror also glowed again, she warned Aphrodite happily: "Aphrodite, I have given Cupid things, he will grow up and have power, but you Don't take my beauty back, or I'll make you regret it!"
Gaia put down the harsh words, and then raised his head proudly and left.
The mirror she dropped slowly floated up, Narcissus' figure appeared in the mirror, his cold and resentful dark purple eyes stared fiercely at Gaia's leaving eyes, gritted his teeth and roared: "Obviously yes She plotted against your Highness first! But now she has taken away your beauty... It's all my fault, I am still too weak to protect Your Highness."
Aphrodite's dejected and lazy appearance has a strange evil beauty, but beauty is really beautiful, and she looks weak and really weak.
Cupid didn't dare to sit in Aphrodite's arms anymore, fluttered his small wings and flew up, touching Aphrodite's cheek and calling out, "Father..."
The corners of Aphrodite's lips twitched slightly, and he looked in the direction Gaia had left, his smile was extremely evil and dangerous.
He felt a steady stream of power pouring into the polar ice world, his eyes opened, his eyes were full of excitement and madness, he spoke softly, his voice hoarse and low: "Don't worry, Narcissus, Cupid, no one can get rid of me Take anything that doesn't belong to them here."
"Mother of the gods, not even the primitive gods."
The mission of patrolling began to work, and Aphrodite easily found the son of the sun god, his eyes followed the figure of Phaethon, and he said calmly and surely: "Tomorrow, Gaia will All that I got here is back, and I have to pay for the beauty of the day."
Aphrodite opened her right hand, Cupid looked down, and the gold coin-shaped rune quietly flashed in his palm: "As a business god, I can't do business at a loss."
