Lazy, lying drunk, eyes blurred, holding the wine glass lightly, looking at the wine in the glass. Wine is a fun thing, but you don’t get drunk only when you are happy. Today is not a happy day. For the King of the Underworld
·For Cora, no.
Little Danny was playing with toys in the room. He was so young and ignorant that he had no idea that his mother was unhappy.
Wine is wine used to drown sorrows. After finishing the glass of wine, Cora's eyes wandered to her son. Little Danny's real name is not Little Danny. He has something that Cora can't forget and doesn't want to mention.
The name, that is a part of Cora's past, including happiness and bitterness.
Today is Cora's wedding anniversary, if she hadn't been divorced.
She never told anyone why she got divorced, not even Vicki, whom she trusted most, and no one knew who her husband was. Her subordinates only knew that she was divorced and alone.
She had her children with her, so her subordinates consciously did not disturb her on this day.
Little Danny crawled to his mother's feet and bit his mother's leg with his first teeth. His wet mouth left wet marks on his mother's calf, making him giggle.
She knew that breaking up with her husband was an inevitable result, and that was why she was unhappy.
The weather outside is very good, sunny and windy, which is exactly the opposite of her mood. In the autumn in the south, the weather is not so hot and more refreshing, especially on a humid island. Cora came to the balcony
, flowers and rain were falling below, and the fragrance was overflowing. She was lying on the balcony watching all this. Her eyes, which were always serious and cold, with no emotion, were a little warmer at this moment, and all the ice and snow on her expression were gone.
melted.
But the short-term warmth was just a blink of an eye, followed by a bit of pain.
"In the end, it's me who gets hurt."
The sadness is hard to express, it is suppressed in my heart and slowly tortures me. Although the past is the past, it still leaves endless melancholy in my heart.
"Throne, throne..."
Cora was called back from her daze. When she saw Vicki downstairs, the expression on her face returned to the past: "What's the matter?"
Vicki shouldn't have bothered her at this time, but something happened: "Gemini Palace Apollo came to the island to visit."
"Got it." After two seconds, Cora said again: "Take him to Pluto Island. I will go see him in a moment."
This island is her private place, and she doesn't want to see other people here.
In the black castle under Pluto Island, Cora met Apollo, who had been waiting for a long time: "Chief Gemini, what are you doing here to see me?"
"Don't be so outspoken, King of the Underworld, I know you are more familiar with my brother Rehog, but our two brothers have never distinguished each other. If you trust him, you should also trust me." Apollo said.
Cora's expression did not change, she just said: "If you have anything to say, just say it. I'm not in the mood to beat around the bush with you today."
Apollo was hit with a cold nail and said angrily: "Okay, I came here this time to ask for advice from the King of the Underworld. The factions in the organization are already very obvious. The King of Heaven is strong, the God Seat has not appeared for a long time, Xiang Duo
We are fighting at every step, how should I make a decision at this time, which side is better to choose?" He paused, and then said: "You also know that our two brothers used to be led by Poseidon King, but... But then we had trouble.
Due to some conflicts, and the fact that the Seagod King has not shown up for a long time since he performed his secret mission, I can be said to be the most isolated in the organization. Although there are no factions, there is no one to back me up."
"It turns out it's for this matter." Cora crossed her legs and sat on the sofa: "Apollo, with your wisdom, didn't you already make a decision at the previous meeting? The issue of St. Vicoia
Go up, you had a falling out with Zalberg, of course Heaven and Realm chose Zalberg, I thought you would move closer to the throne represented by Shantora, why did you hesitate again?"
Apollo frowned and shook his head: "I don't know, I have an intuition that things in St. Bikea are not that simple. That guy Otis once appeared in St. Bikea, but then disappeared for no reason. This makes
I'm confused. Regarding the issue of Saint Vicoia, I don't think the God's Throne has done anything. Moreover, when King Poseidon supported the current God's throne, I was opposed to it. We had conflicts over this matter, and we also had conflicts with the God's Throne.
gap."
Cora said: "But don't forget, I also voted in favor of the throne of God, and you don't know the relationship between me and the throne. If you ask me this question, am I making a mistake?
Target?"
"Really? I don't think so. I think you, the King of the Underworld, have become more and more neutral since you came to the throne." Apollo said.
Cora was silent for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "If you really think so, you are wrong. Even today, if you ask me to recommend someone to the throne, I will still make the same decision without hesitation. Don't look at it.
I am now estranged from God, but on some issues, my views will not change. If you ask me which side you should choose, then my suggestion is that you should stand with God."
This answer surprised Apollo. He did not expect that until now, Cora was still standing on the side of the throne. He was still unwilling to accept it and asked: "What if we, the twins, want to get closer to you?"
Korra looked at him and said: "You want to become my sphere of influence, and I am willing to accept it, but I still have to make it clear that although I did not speak for Shantara in the previous meeting, this is only between me and the throne.
Private matters, to put it bluntly, are selfish interests. Between heaven and the throne of God, I will never choose heaven."
Apollo narrowed his eyes, chewed on Cora's words, and smiled: "You are talking about not choosing anyone, not who chooses whom. I don't understand why you are so against the King of Heaven?"
Cora thought for a while and sighed: "Speaking of which, I admire Tianjie for having the current strength and power, but I admire the current throne even more. But admiration is admiration. Things like power have never had anything to do with this.
.I know what Tianjie wants to do, and I also know what God wants to do. It is precisely because I know, and precisely because I know their thoughts, that I have a choice. You are planning a coup, you should know this very well."
"It turns out that the routes are different. The path that Heaven and Realm wants to take to lead the way to God is not what you want, so you passively chose the current God's seat."
Cora smiled and said: "This 'passive' is not a good word. I actively choose to support the throne. Even though I don't completely agree with the path she wants to take, at least I still agree with it. But Heaven and Realm wants to
I completely disdain the route he took. Did you know that Octavius had a very good relationship with the previous throne, so he loathes, even hates the current throne, but he chose to support her ascension to the throne at the most critical moment?
?”
Apollo was startled: "Could it be that King Poseidon also..."
Cora smiled and said: "Although Poseidon has always believed that the current God Seat killed the previous God Seat, he has the same heart and the same goal as the current God Seat in terms of the future development route of God's Path. His thoughts are the same as the current God Seat. He thinks
The path of God should be changed, and it should be changed in the direction that the current Godhead wants, not in the direction that heaven and the world want. Now you should understand my attitude."
"I see, I understand." Apollo murmured: "The battle between the throne of God and the King of Heaven is not just a simple battle for power, but also a battle for routes."
Cora said: "The current God's Throne and the Heaven Realm have completely different definitions of the future nature of the God's Path. So no matter who is really in charge of the God's Path in the future, the previous God's Path will be gone forever.
In the zodiac, most people focus on immediate interests and choose sides. No one has the foresight to see this clearly. Can you, Gemini, be different?"
"I didn't think the problem was so complicated. My original thought was the same as what you said. I just wanted to stand on the side of the winner and gain greater benefits. So that's what happened." This is a difficult question to choose.
He discovered that this is not a matter of choosing whose side you side with who gives you more benefits. Of course, you can also choose this way. As long as you are a person who doesn’t care about where God’s path will develop in the future, you can choose to side with actual benefits.
Make a decision. But if your choice has its own thoughts... Apollo had to think deeply.
After a while, Apollo said: "I can understand to a certain extent what Heaven Realm wants to do. But what God wants to do, I don't know very well."
Cora also noticed the change in Apollo's wording. Before this, Apollo had been calling Heaven Realm the King of Heaven on the surface, but now he was calling him by his first name. This obviously represented a signal - he also
I don’t agree with the path Tian·jie wants to take.
Cora said: "If you knew the path Heaven Realm was going to take, you should know how difficult the path he chose was."
"I know that the road he has to take is very difficult. Even if everyone on the path to God works hard for it, the chance of success is very slim."
Cora added: "But I want to say that the road God has to take is equally difficult, or even more difficult. Because the enemies you will face along these two roads are completely different."
Apollo thought for a long time and said: "I can't make a decision on this kind of thing at once."
"You don't have to tell me what decision you make."
Apollo nodded: "Oh, the King of Hades already knows about Celeste, right?"
"My men have reported to me."
Apollo said: "Although he is a little unconvinced, a bet is a bet. From now on, that boy's affairs have nothing to do with my Gemini Palace. If the organization still wants to get rid of him, please find someone else. And I listen
Your people say that you are very interested in him."
Korra said: "Since his target is Long Ling and he has made a request for cooperation, there is no need to rush to kill him. I am already handling this matter and I will tell Shantara."
"Has the King of the Underworld sent someone?"
Cora said: "He is so strong now that even your brothers can't do anything to him. He even said arrogantly that he wanted to find a responsible person to talk to him. How can I do it if I don't go there myself?"
"The King of the Underworld plans to go there in person?"
Cora sneered: "It's not a plan, it's already. While my subordinates kept reporting the situation to me, I was already there waiting for him."
