027. Comfort
Poseidon, the god of the sea, has always loved to patrol his territory. He feels refreshed every time he looks at all the creatures in the sea that submit to him.
But this time, Poseidon's mood was completely opposite.
When he finished his duties and returned to the sea, Poseidon saw Triton waiting in front of his palace, wondering what he wanted to do.
Even though he was his own son, when he thought of the way he had seen him coveting his lover, and of Medusa's endless praises of him, Poseidon could not help but sneer and swam past him as if he had ignored him.
“Father…Father!”
However, Triton's eyes seemed to gleam with determination. He swam quickly in front of Poseidon, blocking his path, as if he had made up his mind. "I have something to tell you."
Poseidon finally turned his gaze on his son with alms at this time, without saying a word. Although he was dissatisfied with Triton's relationship with his woman, he knew his son's indecisive temper and knew that he would never say anything outrageous in front of him. In the end, he just raised his eyebrows and signaled Triton to speak.
"I...want Medusa."
His careless gaze suddenly froze, and he narrowed his eyes dangerously. "Triton, do you know what you're saying?"
Triton's eyes flickered with a faint golden light. He clenched his fists tightly and bravely addressed the powerful father in his heart. Disappointment filled his eyes as he slowly shook his head. "You always hurt the good women around you. Mother, Medusa too. I saw the wounds on her face again today... My dear father! If you're tired of her, perhaps I can take care of this poor girl for you."
He didn't know where the courage came from in his heart. If it were the usual Triton, he would never dare to disobey his father so blatantly. But at this moment, Triton felt that he really could not tolerate his amorous, dissolute, yet despicable and violent father.
However, just as Triton was about to continue, he suddenly felt a painful and suffocating pressure in his throat, and the force was so strong that it was obvious that it wanted to strangle him to death!
But he saw very clearly that the hand that grabbed his neck came from his father Poseidon!
"Ahem..." His face quickly turned red and he coughed as if trying to breathe. His eyes, which were 50% similar to those of the Sea God, looked at Poseidon in disbelief, "Father, father...?"
The sea water around Poseidon was boiling, but it was so cold that it seemed to be frozen. His curly algae-blue hair was fluttering upwards at a very fast frequency, and the sensitive marine creatures around him had disappeared at some point, fearing that they would be affected.
But he just gave him a threatening grin. This was the anger of the Sea God. Even when facing his son who was almost unable to breathe in his arms, he did not show any love for his son.
"Triton—are you telling me how to do things?!"
Poseidon's voice was distant and full of divine majesty. He was dissatisfied with Triton, as his son, for telling him what to do for a woman, and he was even more angry that Triton dared to ask for his lover!
No matter what kind of anger it was, Poseidon, the god of the sea, could not tolerate it, especially when his lover Medusa shamelessly praised his son in front of him. That kind of tacit understanding and mutual appreciation was like the shame of betrayal hanging over Poseidon's head.
Therefore, He was determined to teach the rebellious son Terry the same lesson!
Hurt by his father's angry gaze and violence, Triton, who was bewitched by Medusa, suddenly woke up. When he thought about what ridiculous words he had said, he suddenly felt as if he was on the edge of an abyss and trembled all over.
Triton didn't know how he had dared to challenge his father's authority, and even provoked his father to treat him like this. Even as the Messenger of the Sea, Triton was immortal, but facing his father's undisguised hurt, he still shook his head painfully, "I, I didn't mean... that..."
"Triton, you have to understand that I am the ruler of the sea. Everything in this sea belongs to me—"
"Even if you are my son, you should not covet things that do not belong to you. This is my final warning. I advise you not to have any other thoughts."
This "thing" seems to be referring to the power of the sea god, but it also seems to be referring to other people and things.
Triton seemed to understand. He slowly closed his eyes and nodded with great pain and difficulty, "Forgive me, I...I won't do it again."
Hearing Triton's promise, Poseidon let out a mocking and contemptuous laugh, then suddenly pushed him away, as if he didn't care about Triton's life or death at all, and swam away.
Triton clutched his throat and gasped for breath before he felt his strength restored.
He looked up at his father's back. The gentle Triton did not vent his anger on Medusa, who made him make up his mind.
In fact, he was so naive that he didn't feel the power contained in Medusa's words. He just felt that he was too impulsive and thought too simply.
I don’t know what’s wrong with me that I would risk my life to ask my father for her.
Fortunately, his father did not harm him or treat him like he treated Medusa, which made Triton feel a little relieved.
But what should he do next?
Just watch Medusa continue to stay by her father's side?

Poseidon swam into his golden palace with great momentum, intending to kill Medusa. He really didn't expect that she had such great power to cause Triton to undergo such abnormal changes.
It wasn't just because of Triton's covetousness, but because her very existence actually made Triton dare to defy her!
As the son of Poseidon with his own blood, Triton's behavior threatened Poseidon's rule, so Poseidon naturally would not let her go.
But when he found her in the huge and magnificent palace, Poseidon slowly stopped his movements.
He obviously came at a bad time. Medusa was changing clothes. She seemed not to expect someone to suddenly break in. She turned her back to him, revealing her slender yet smooth back. Her fair and smooth skin seemed to be sparkling with tiny light. At the same time, the red marks on her body left by himself made Poseidon unable to ignore them.
Medusa found a rope from somewhere and casually tied up her beautiful long hair. Some wildly growing hair was scattered around her neck. Her body was slightly tilted, and one could faintly see the softness of her chest trembling and rising with the movement of her body.
As if she had noticed the movement behind her, she suddenly covered her chest with her clothes and turned her head. The red and swollen slap marks could still be seen on her face, and her eyes revealed confusion and innocence as she looked at Him.
It was not until Medusa realized that it was Poseidon who appeared behind her that her innocent and beautiful expression suddenly changed, becoming fearful and horrified, just like a harmless little animal seeing the most powerful hunter in the world.
So at that moment, Poseidon suddenly couldn't help but define her existence.
What could such a weak and beautiful woman be capable of?
Even though Medusa still refused to succumb to fate and herself, and even had her own thoughts, she could not force Triton to say such words in front of her.
——It’s just that Triton, who is greedy for beauty, was tempted by her beauty. What does it have to do with her?
Thinking of this, the ferocity and murderous intent on his face slowly dissipated, and then, under her panicked gaze, he slowly swam towards her.
Medusa dodged a little, but the tall and strong Poseidon controlled the water flow and easily took her in his arms after she took off all her clothes.
Her occasional dominance and willfulness are indeed interesting, but no one can threaten Poseidon, the god of the sea, and she must know who is the real master.
Apparently, Poseidon, the god of the sea, really enjoyed Medusa's slightly trembling body, at least that was the case for him now, because it meant that she was very afraid of him. Although he also liked Medusa's initiative and debauchery, he felt more comfortable with the obedient and thornless Medusa.
The former is difficult to master, while the latter is much easier.
So, He reached out and gently touched Medusa's swollen cheek. Hearing her gasp of pain, Poseidon's hoarse, low voice was filled with condescending soothing, "Does it still hurt?"
But then, His words became cold and majestic, as if He wanted to completely tame her, "—Do you still dare to disobey me?"
Medusa did not answer, but just looked at him sadly with her clear eyes, without saying a word.
Not getting the expected answer, the arrogant smile on Poseidon's face froze a little, and a faint anger slowly rose again, "Are you mute?!"
Finally, Medusa lowered her eyes with a complicated expression and cautiously said, "Respected Poseidon, it is an honor for me that a great god like you would fall in love with a lowly woman like me, but time flies, and I think... you must be tired of me!"
These words surprised even the mighty Sea God. He faintly sensed the hidden emotions in Medusa's words, but he didn't dare to believe her thoughts. He suddenly said coldly, "What do you mean?"
"I believe that I cannot stay by your side and serve you for long. Since you are tired of me, why not let me leave the sea and return to where I was born? That way I won't annoy you anymore—"
As Medusa was speaking, he suddenly noticed that her shoulders were slightly hunched, and a bite mark had appeared on her round and smooth skin. Poseidon knew that he had never bitten her shoulder.
...Whose could it be then?
Thinking of this, Poseidon's arms suddenly tightened, almost strangling her to death.
That overwhelming anger almost destroyed his remaining sanity!
——No woman has ever dared to do this to Him!
All of Poseidon's lovers admired him. Even if they were forced at first, they would eventually fall in love with him under his power, charm and training.
I thought that Medusa's words and actions were all for the purpose of playing hard to get and seducing, but I didn't expect that her desire to escape was so strong that she actually ignored Poseidon!
Poseidon, the god of the sea, had never experienced such humiliation. His accumulated anger was almost like a volcanic eruption. He wanted to make this ignorant and foolish woman realize her mistake and make her pay the price for it.
"I, my respected sea god Poseidon..."
She almost screamed in pain, but her face didn't show any pain at all, instead it was more of excitement.
"You must have misunderstood!"
Medusa reached out her hand to hold His face, and her fingers gently and affectionately tapped His cheek.
Her fingertips seemed to have magical power, with a touch of tenderness that made him focus all his attention on Medusa.
At that moment, Poseidon calmed down strangely. Her hand soothed him, as if a touch of ice water suddenly extinguished his anger.
But it was not just Medusa's soft fingertips that brought about the change in Him.
At the same time, a strange idea, fantasy and hope slowly ignited in his heart, but it was so reasonable, because Poseidon suddenly realized that this was what he wanted.
No matter what fate Medusa might encounter later, whether she would be ruthlessly abandoned by Him or even killed, or continue to stay by His side, but before that...
——He desperately wanted Medusa to fall deeply in love with him.
