Chapter 255 If you don't give up, I will be your foster father
"Not now, but after I die!"
As if frightened by the gaze of the Lord of the Underworld, Loen hurriedly began to explain.
"Let's make a contract. After I die, my soul will belong to you. This way, if Her Royal Highness the Princess encounters any danger while being cared for by me, you will know it immediately and rush to save her as soon as possible!"
Hades was shocked beyond words when he heard Ron's answer.
In order to protect his daughter, the boy in front of him was willing to do this!
"Why?" Pluto in the darkness was somewhat moved and puzzled.
Loen no longer had the previous tit-for-tat attitude and smiled sincerely.
"You are testing me, and I am testing you. For the sake of your daughter, you can choose to tolerate my offense, and you are willing to trust the judgment of the Queen of the Underworld and entrust the princess to me, an outsider. This kind of generosity is enough to prove that your love for the princess is definitely no less than that of the Queen of the Underworld. It's just that as a father, a husband, and the King of Hell who is constrained in every way in the underworld, there are some feelings that cannot be easily expressed."
Hearing the other party's heartfelt praise, Hades, who had always been gloomy and never good at expressing himself, turned his head somewhat unnaturally.
"You also want to change, and you also want to protect the mother and daughter. Otherwise, you wouldn't have risked entering Elysee Garden."
Loen spoke with great emotion, looked at Pluto in the darkness with gentle eyes, and sighed softly.
"I guess you've had a hard time these years..."
Hearing the sigh behind him, Hades' shoulders trembled slightly. He clenched his fists with his hanging arms and looked at the opposite side with extremely complicated emotions.
Never before had any words resonated with him as strongly as they did today.
Yes, it’s not easy.
He just wanted his family of three to live a peaceful life, but someone didn't allow that.
However, since he failed to bring about any substantial changes, his daughter and wife were unable to understand his difficulties.
"You have done everything you could for this family and done what you should do."
Lorne stared at Hades in front of him and spoke solemnly.
"Similarly, I don't want to betray your and Queen Ming's trust and let Her Royal Highness get hurt."
"So, you made a covenant with me to sacrifice your soul to me after your death, is this what it is for?"
Hades asked with a stern face, and then snorted and scolded without waiting for Loen to answer.
"Nonsense! Can you give your soul to others so easily?"
Lorne shook his head and pondered seriously.
"In my heart, the Queen of the Underworld who gave me a new life is like a second mother. Her Highness Melinoe is my sister. You..."
He paused, as if a little embarrassed to speak, then changed the subject and spoke frankly.
"But it's just talk. Without solid evidence, it's bound to be superficial. Moreover, you can't completely solve those problems. I don't know if I can live up to your trust and that of the Queen of the Underworld. So, I hope you can share this responsibility with me and take over the protection of their safety after I die."
Seeing how considerate he was, how much he cared about the family, and even willing to pay the price of his life and soul for it, Hades could no longer suppress the emotion in his heart and murmured.
"You are a good child..."
"I have selfish motives. Even if my soul falls into your hands after I die, I think you will not treat me badly."
Luo En smiled awkwardly and took the initiative to reveal his little thoughts.
"Of course!"
Hades waved his hand and assured calmly.
"Then please grant my request!"
Then, under Loen's repeated requests, the Hades could only nod and agree, formally make a covenant with the other party, and branded his own divine seal on the other party.
Seeing the black mark of the dead shaped like a skull gradually fading on the back of his hand, Loen finally felt relieved.
Done!
In this way, the unique characteristics of Hecate's Wheel on his body would be offset. Even if he accidentally lost his life, it would not be easy for Hecate to take his soul.
Lorne thought to himself, his eyes flickering faintly.
That's right, he went through so much trouble to do all this, certainly not just to sell his soul and pave the way for Hades to rescue Melinoe.
More importantly, he could make use of Hades' Mark of the Dead and the bug in Hecate's Wheel, so that he could ambush Hecate when she attacked him.
I guess when the creditor wanted to collect the debt and saw Hades coming, his expression must have been very interesting.
Moreover, all signs indicate that His Majesty the King of Hell is not really willing to submit to Hecate.
What would Hades think if he died protecting Melinoe and Hecate happened to arrive at the scene?
——Is the Moon Goddess going to attack his daughter again?
At that time, even if they didn't fight on the spot, Hades, feeling guilty, would definitely protect his soul at all costs, even at the cost of breaking off relations with Hecate.
It’s hard to explain. After it’s over, I will gain more gratitude from Hades, the Queen of the Underworld, and that stinky sister.
After all, he came to join this family, not to destroy it.
Just as Loen was muttering jokingly in his heart, Hades reminded him in a deep voice and brought a new surprise.
"With this mark of the dead, the guards of the underworld will treat you as one of their own kind. And because it has my scent on it, some unconscious patrolling spirits will obey your orders. From now on, you will be able to enter and leave the underworld freely."
When Luo En heard this, he was overjoyed.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
However, Hades frowned unhappily when he heard this.
"What did you call me?"
"Pluto..."
"Hmm? I gave you the privilege of mobilizing the spirits of the underworld. What did you call me?"
Hearing the humming sound and seeing a hint of expectation on Hades' face, Loen immediately understood and bowed down.
"Godfather!"
"That's more like it."
Having gotten the answer he wanted, Hades nodded with satisfaction, a smile from the heart appearing on his gloomy face.
"From now on, Melinoe is entrusted to you."
"I promise to take good care of my sister!"
Loen immediately took advantage of the situation and added in a low voice.
"Once I have settled her down, I will tell my mother about you and her..."
"Need not!"
Hades waved his hand, looking unimpressed.
However, Loen smiled and shook his head, giving a meaningful reminder.
"You'd better not refuse. From what I know, when two people have a common secret, their relationship tends to become more inseparable..."
Hearing this, Haddish's eyes suddenly lit up and his heart was filled with emotion.
"real?"
"more than……"
Luo En smiled slightly and spoke again to give advice.
"Melinoe's matter can not only serve as a bond for you to repair your relationship with your mother, but also allow you to think together about how to change the current situation in the underworld and further enhance your relationship."
Seeing that Hades seemed to understand, a newly appointed filial son glanced at him and spoke slowly.
"Melinoë was only temporarily released to the human world. As a daughter, there is no reason for her to say goodbye to her parents forever. As long as you work together with the Queen of the Underworld and wait for the opportunity to regain the authority of the Underworld, you can bring Melinoë back to the Underworld and share the joy of family life with her."
When Hades heard this, his mind suddenly opened up, and an unprecedented fire flashed in the depths of his silent black eyes.
That’s right, for the sake of his daughter and his wife, there are some things he should fight for!
Seeing the "godfather" ignited with fighting spirit, a certain "filial son" also had a look of joy in his eyes.
Dear Master, and your dead father on Mount Olympus, it seems you are going to have a new competitor.
