Two hundred years is not a long time for the gods, but Poseidon cannot miss the most important growth period of Venus. Mount Olympus is the domain of Zeus, and Poseidon and Pluto are inconvenient to set foot in. It doesn't matter, he can't go up the mountain, he can let Venus go down.

The sea emperor is the ruler of all waters, and Poseidon ordered the water fairy to deliberately tell Venus that the river can lead to the foot of the mountain, so as to lead Venus to sneak down the mountain. Poseidon turned into a mortal Adonis, suppressed the violent, leaving only the gentle divinity, and designed a coincidence with Venus on the island of Cyprus.

This is the plan that Poseidon decided after many investigations.

First of all, being a mortal can relax Venus' vigilance and allow Venus to conceal his existence. If you approach directly with the identity of the sea emperor, Venus will turn his head and tell the god Olympus, after all, that is the god Venus is familiar with. In this way, those Olympus gods will be strictly guarded to prevent Venus from going down the mountain, and he will not be able to cultivate a relationship with Venus.

Secondly, people's fantasies about their first love are mostly gentle and considerate beautiful men, not strong and domineering paranoia. The former can become the object of heartbeat, while the latter mostly become a psychological shadow.

Poseidon has a clear understanding of his own attributes, and decisively sealed the cold side, leaving only the warmth. The hidden side will wait for Venus to become an adult, and then tell him in the way of an adult god.

Both sides are the real him, so it's not a disguise, it's just that he doesn't show his full nature.

Venus is still too young to be the shadow of his childhood, stifling love in the cradle.

Chapter 27

Venus returned to Olympus, walked into his palace, and admired it in the mirror. Cyprus is the holy island where he was born, and most of the flowers on the island are white roses. Adonis made a wreath of white roses and wore it on Venus' blond hair, making the goddess look more radiant and holy.

Venus was reluctant to take off the wreath. He casts a spell to freeze white roses into eternity, so that they never wither, so that they can be worn forever. If other gods saw it, they would only think he picked it from his own garden.

I really want to see Adonis tomorrow. The beauty god who is in love can't wait.

As soon as they separated, Venus fell into thoughts.

But tomorrow I'm going for a walk by the river with Hephaestus, and the day after tomorrow I'm going to ride with Ares.

Oh, these two guys who disturbed his relationship.

Venus sat down in front of the vanity mirror, resting his cheeks with one hand, looking unhappy.

He also liked the two friends Hephaestus and Ares very much, but who made him love Adonis more now? It is the nature of the love of God to forget one's friends.

Compared with Venus's lack of interest, Hephaestus in the Fire Temple is preparing for tomorrow's date with great anticipation.

Hephaestus stood in front of the mirror, constantly changing the clothes on his body, trying to pick out the best looking one, and appearing in front of his sweetheart in the most handsome posture tomorrow.

After finally taking a fancy to a gorgeous and bright red dress like a flame, Hephaestus was satisfied, the corners of his lips curved up, and a smile appeared in his red eyes.

But soon, he saw the flame birthmark on his face, and his eyes dimmed instantly. His eyes fell and his smile faded.

What's the use of dressing up nicely, he was born with an ugly face.

How dare he look in the mirror.

When Hephaestus uncharacteristically ran to the rose garden of the God of Beauty, the god of Mount Olympus was also stunned.

"He was willing to go out? Didn't he never communicate with other gods?"

"With the exception of the three virgin goddesses, no god can escape the charm of His Majesty's Highness. He also covets the beauty of His Majesty's Highness? To be honest, a toad wants to eat swan meat."

"That's right, so many handsome male gods and beautiful goddesses are pursuing His Majesty the God of Beauty, and he doesn't even look in the mirror to see himself. Let's not talk about that face, will His Highness the God of Beauty see a lame man?"

Hephaestus was used to hearing all kinds of ugly and contemptuous taunts. He had already done so not to care. He has always been a marginal figure in Olympus. He believes that appearance is born, everyone has the right to pursue love, and it is a shameful act to judge people by appearance. Those gods' hearts are far uglier than his appearance.

But now, looking at the half-crippled face in the mirror, Hephaestus felt an unprecedented powerlessness and inferiority.

He took out a golden mask he made and covered it over his right eye, covering half of the birthmark. In this way, the Vulcan in the mirror becomes enchanting and handsome, not inferior to Apollo, the first handsome man in Olympus.

——This beauty ranking does not include the beauty gods. After all, it is a foul to let the beauty gods compare with other gods, and he should sit in the referee bench.

Hephaestus certainly didn't qualify for the list. The gods are all good-looking, and among a group of beauties, a mediocre appearance can be considered ugly, not to mention that he has such a large birthmark on his face. He always kept his head down, and few gods were willing to look him in the face.

No god would have noticed that Hephaestus' own facial features were extremely bewitching.

It is a pity that there is no if, he was born with a deformed appearance, and he has acquired disabilities in his legs and feet. His fate was such that even Zeus could not change it.

Even wearing a mask, standing still in front of the mirror can deceive yourself and reveal the fact that you are lame when you walk.

Venus didn't care, but he himself did.

How can he be so imperfect as a perfect Venus?

Vulcan raised his eyes, and there was a burst of strong unwillingness at the bottom of his gloomy eyes.

The next day, Venus came to the river, where Hephaestus was already waiting.

"You came so early." Venus admired the mask on Hephaestus' face, "Your mask is so beautiful."

Hephaestus said: "Then I will make one for you too."

"Hephaestus, I just want to compliment you, you don't have to give me a copy of everything." Venus laughed.
