Chapter 108 Behind the Light Is Darkness

After Hercules left the underworld, Luo Yin reminded Persephone with some concern.

"Sister Persephone! Although Hercules killed King Neleus of Pylos and his eleven sons, making it temporarily impossible for Pylos to attack the city of Tenaron that worships you. But the city of Mycenae and the city-states in the Arcadia region attacking the city of Tenaron will bring you a greater crisis."

"There is nothing to worry about."

Persephone rubbed her cheek against Luo Yin's cheek and said.

"Because you will definitely protect your sister and prevent others from taking away your wife."

Feeling Persephone's trust and dependence on him, Luo Yin nodded and said.

"It is better for me to be your husband and the king of the underworld than for my enemies to get the throne and power of the king of the underworld. But I can't stay in the underworld to accompany you all the time, please let me return to the human world."

Hearing Luo Yin's request, Persephone fell into silent silence.

Just when Luo Yin wanted to take the initiative to break the silence, Persephone finally said.

"Do you have to leave?"

"Only if I return to the human world can I use my human identity to stop Mycenae from joining forces with the city-states in the Arcadia region to attack Tenaron."

"Since you left the underworld to protect your sister, let's separate for the time being."

Persephone said reluctantly, and immediately got off Luo Yin's back and stood behind him and said.

"Dear brother, when you have done what you should do in the human world, you must return to the underworld to be my husband and Hades."

"Well..."

After agreeing to Persephone's request with a guilty conscience, Luo Yin frowned and said when he saw Theseus and Pirithous chained next to the boulder.

"Sister Persephone! It is said that the real body of Erebus, the god of darkness, is between the human world and the underworld. Only gods and the dead can pass through the darkness of Erebus to the underworld. Then can we use the darkness of Erebus to seal the passage between the human world and the underworld so that human beings cannot break into the underworld? I don't want... you to be disturbed by crazy human beings again."

"Erebus, the god of darkness, is the endless darkness of the underworld."

Persephone said with a helpless smile.

"Erebus is regarded as one of the five gods of creation when Chaos, the god of chaos, created the world. He is like Gaia, the mother goddess of the earth, and Uranus, the god of the sky, and cannot actively interfere with humans and gods. If you want to use the darkness of Erebus to seal the passage between the human world and the underworld, you must let another god of darkness manipulate the darkness of Erebus."

"Another god of darkness? If there is another god of darkness in this world besides Erebus, how can we find him?"

Seeing Luo Yin frowning and thinking, Persephone teased with a playful smile.

"Dear brother, have you forgotten? Then sister will remind you that the place where light cannot shine is darkness, light and darkness exist at the same time, and behind light is darkness."

"Behind light is darkness--"

Mumbling this sentence, Luo Yin said in disbelief.

"Now I am the god of light. Does sister mean that the god of darkness is behind me?"

After speaking, Luo Yin turned his head and looked at his own shadow on the stone wall.

"My shadow is the God of Darkness?"

Luo Yin tentatively extended his left index finger and pressed it towards the shadow on the stone wall.

The shadow on the stone wall also made the same move, extending his left index finger towards Luo Yin.

The moment Luo Yin's left index finger and the shadow's left index finger touched each other, the dark shadow immediately left the stone wall and wrapped around Luo Yin's body.

The next moment!

The passage illuminated by the light of Luo Yin's white wings turned into absolute darkness again.

The white wings behind him turned into black wings, and Luo Yin said with his eyes wide open in shock as he felt the dark power surging in his body.

"I am actually the God of Light and the God of Darkness at the same time..."

Persephone happily threw herself into Luo Yin's arms, hugged Luo Yin's waist tightly with both hands and said.

"I was right! You have been denying your identity, and I can't help but doubt that maybe you are not my brother. Sister actually doubted you - this is an unforgivable sin, punish me quickly!"

"How do you want me to punish you?"

"Let's go back to the bedroom--"

Before Persephone finished speaking, Luo Yin guessed what she meant by punishment and said hurriedly.

"Including myself, I will not allow any man to hurt my sister, so I will not punish you."

Seeing Persephone's disappointed expression, Luo Yin continued.

"Since I am the god of darkness, I will use the darkness of Erebus to seal the passage between the human world and the underworld, and then... I will leave the underworld and return to the human world."

After speaking, Luo Yin walked towards the cave connecting the human world and the underworld under the reluctant gaze of Persephone.

Sprinkled a ray of light into the cave of the underworld.

When Luo Yin came here, he raised his left hand directly to release the power of darkness, and let the power of darkness turn into black stone to seal the cave little by little.

When the cave entrance was completely sealed and the light of the human world disappeared from the underworld, Luo Yin turned his head and looked into the depths of the underworld.

"Sister Persephone... I'm sorry!"

Although he promised Persephone that he would return to the underworld to accompany her, it was just a lie to deceive Persephone.

No matter how gentle and beautiful Persephone is, Luo Yin will not return to the dark underworld for her.

When Luo Yin passed through the darkness of Erebus and returned to the human world, he saw that the priestesses of the Temple of Persephone were all looking at him with shocked eyes.

The high priest said to Luo Yin in a trembling voice.

"The entrance to the underworld has been sealed by the power of the God of Darkness. You can pass through the darkness and return to the human world, so you must be a great god."

Luo Yin nodded and said.

"I am a god who has a friendly relationship with Persephone, the Queen of the Underworld you serve. Now King Neleus of Pylos has been punished for blaspheming Persephone and claiming that Poseidon is Persephone's husband and Hades. You should go and tell the king of Tenaron that if he is not firm and pious in his belief in Persephone, he will also be punished by the gods next."

After that, Luo Yin left the Temple of Persephone and rode his horse to the Argos region.

After Luo Yin left, Persephone, with dazzling golden hair and two emerald children, appeared at the entrance of the temple, looking at Luo Yin's receding figure and said.

"Dear brother, I am not only the goddess of death in the underworld, but also the goddess of harvest on earth. If you do not keep your promise and return to the underworld, I will personally take you back to the underworld."

Because he mistakenly ignored Persephone's identity as the goddess of harvest and regarded the goddess of death in the underworld as Persephone's main identity, Luo Yin thought that he could not keep his promise to Persephone by leaving the underworld.

But in fact, as a trinity goddess, Persephone has great power and prestige in both the underworld and the world above.
