Chapter 18 - chapter 18

Hera!"

When Hephaestus saw this woman, his eyes were a bit complicated.

The goddess of the ocean, Thetis, showed a look of disdain.

The maelstrom monster and the river god saluted very respectfully.

Only the goddess of justice, with a blank face and no waves in her eyes.

It seems that Zeus is here, and she also looks indifferent about life and death.

"Themis, Goddess of Justice, what do you want me for?"

Hera ran to the center of the hall and asked.

She looked arrogant, she didn't even glance at the people around her, and directly talked to Themis, who had the most authority and the highest status here.

Therefore, she also failed to see the Hephaestus she gave birth to.

The giant python looked around very cautiously, and when he saw the blond boy with a complicated face and the river god Achelous, his vertical snake pupils suddenly showed a look of fear.

I'm afraid something will be revealed! !

"Hera, someone accused you of murdering your own son! That's why I specially summoned you to come and judge!"

The goddess of justice said lightly.

Hera was taken aback by these words, and then sneered, "Themis, you are the goddess of justice! How dare you slander the queen of the gods like this!"

The Goddess of Justice ignored her, and looked at the blue-haired woman: "Charybdis, let me ask you, why did you, Scylla and Siren went to kill Hephaestus?"

Charybdis didn't dare to lie, but it was very embarrassing. If he told the story in public, wouldn't he be an enemy of the queen Hera in public?

"Don't be afraid! This is the Temple of Justice, no one can do anything to you. Tell the truth!"

Themis scolded coldly.

"Yes...it's the siren. Scylla and I went to kill Hephaestus because he wounded the siren!"

Charybdis had no choice but to answer bravely: "The siren wanted to kill him because of the deal with Python. Python promised that as long as she kills the kid, she can get a golden apple."

The voice fell.

The entire temple fell silent.

It was dead silent.

The giant python's skin and body were trembling, and he lowered his head.

On the other hand, Hera looked in disbelief, looking at Python, and then at the little blond boy beside the sea goddess Thetis.

This is the child I discarded? No, it's impossible, how could he become so handsome?

Hera was confused for a while, and felt wronged at the same time.

It would be fine if she really instructed her, but she didn't at all!

"Goddess of Justice, I have never done anything like kinslaying. This crime is too terrible! You can't arbitrarily convict me!" Hera yelled in denial.

"However, your pet Python paid someone to kill me ! Hera's son!"

At this time, Hephaestus stood up and said calmly.

This sentence is nothing less than a heavy blow.

Hera turned pale, turned her head to look at Python who was lying on the ground trembling, and couldn't help cursing: "Damn beast! Who allowed you to do such a thing! You are hurting me!"

"Master, spare my life! Please, spare my life!" Python begged it felt like the sky was falling.

The Lady Justice stood up, walked down the steps, and came to Hera: "So, this matter is all manipulated by Python?"

"Isn't that clear enough? Lady Justice, I believe you can tell right from wrong!"

Hera's chest rose and fell in anger, and she yelled at Python: "Damn beast! You must pay for this! Go to hell!"

Hera raised her hand and swiped.

The void seems to be cut open, and the other end reveals a gloomy scent of death.

It is the underworld.

"No! Master, please spare me!"

Python was so frightened that his soul flew into the sky, but he couldn't change the result. Python huge body was immediately thrown into the underworld by Hera.

The Void Fissure healed quickly.

Hera snorted coldly and said to the Goddess of Justice: "Themis, I punished Python, are you satisfied with the result?"

"Although you have nothing to do with this matter. But you once abandoned Hephaestus to fend for himself on the island of Lemnos. Do you dare to say that you are not at fault for doing such a ruthless thing!? I will punish you now Confinement in the shrine for a year, self-reflection!"

The Goddess of Justice said ruthlessly.

Hera was at a loss for words, and her face was a bit embarrassed.

Although she wasn't charged with murdering her progeny, she couldn't escape the reputation of abandoning her son!

There is also a closed punishment, which cannot be ignored.

She turned her eyes to the blond boy, and suddenly felt a slight movement in her heart.

If Hephaestus hadn't been so ugly, she wouldn't have thrown it away.

Now that Hephaestus is now handsome, she has no reason to abandon her son.

And doing so can also make her face less embarrassing, and better avoid the punishment of the Goddess of Justice...

"Lady Justice, that's me, I was confused for a while. I'm willing to make up for it now!"

Hera walked up to Hephaestus in a few steps, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Son, come home with me! I am your mother. From now on, mother will make it up too you..."

Hera's hypocrisy made Thetis sick.

She wanted to reject Hera outright.

But come to think of it, this matter is still up to Hephaestus himself.

"Queen Hera, there are only zero and ten thousand times of betrayal."

At this time, Hephaestus said: "I will not go back with you. My mother is Thetis now, and my home is in the Sea God Palace."

How could he live under the same roof as someone who almost killed himself once.

He would never get over this hurdle in his heart, so he simply refused.

Moreover, he took the initiative to hold Thetis' hand.

The latter's eyes sparkled and he felt relieved. He also clenched his little hand tightly, and said to Hera, "Did you hear that? Queen Hera, please put away your compassionate heart."

Hera's face turned red and white, but she couldn't speak.
