Eros, the god of love and desire?
Tartarus was slightly surprised.
This was one of the five primordial gods born from Chaos—the fifth god to be born, simultaneously with the other four.
“They experienced love and sexuality, and so it was born.
Nyx and Erebus?” Tartarus immediately recalled these two gods.
In Greek mythology, it is said that these two primordial deities were twins, brother and sister, who later became husband and wife and bore two children: the god of the sky and the god of day.
Later, Nyx herself conceived many children.
Reflecting on this, Tartarus could not help but regret that the gods of the Chaos realm only resembled humans in appearance, but in essence were not human.
They had no concept of ethics; they could unite as men and women to give birth to new gods, and goddesses could also give birth to gods on their own.
In particular, Gaia, the goddess of the earth, and Nyx, the goddess of night, according to the original Greek mythology, each gave birth to many powerful gods on their own.
When this androgynous voice spoke, a pink light flashed near Nyx and Erebus.
A pink mist rose within the light, and from it emerged a deity.
It was a tall and imposing divine male, but he possessed an extraordinarily beautiful feminine face—a beauty surpassing any woman Tartarus had ever seen in his past life.
This stunning beauty surpassed even that of Nyx and Gaia, and was perhaps the most exquisite beauty Tartarus had ever witnessed.
He was clad in a pink veil that revealed his well-defined and beautifully sculpted upper body muscles, fully radiating the masculine strength and tension of his physique.
Eros, the god of love and desire!
This deity had a male body but a female face; determining its gender by appearance alone was impossible.
However, when he appeared, Tartarus sensed through his divine perception that this deity was male.
“Greetings, my brother Eros.
I am Tartarus, the second god born from Chaos, the god of the abyss,” Tartarus introduced himself.
In Greek mythology, there is very little information about this god of love.
With the appearance of Cupid in the time of Zeus, traces of this primordial god almost completely disappeared.
Perhaps Tartarus was too weak, and his divine authority was undermined, or perhaps there were other, deeper conspiracy theories that Tartarus did not know.
Now Tartarus was curious to learn the true power of this primordial god of love and desire, and who he really was.
“I am Erebus, the third god born from Chaos, the god of darkness.” After introducing himself, Erebus said nothing more.
“Hello, Eros, I am Nyx, the fourth deity born from Chaos, the goddess of night.
I am your sister!
You said that love and sex were born, and then you were born.
What are love and sex?” Nyx smiled playfully at Eros, then glanced at the abyss below.
“My sister Nyx, Goddess of Night, you already know what love is—let me tell you what sex is!” Eros looked at Nyx, his beautiful eyes shimmering with pink light, radiating seductive charm.
In an instant, Nyx experienced a hallucination…
A faceless male god embraced her, and his hand reached out to remove the thin veil covering her body.
Then…
in an instant, various scenes of lovemaking between man and woman flashed through Nyx’s mind.
What might seem like many scenes of pleasure between men and women were actually just fleeting moments.
Instantly coming to her senses, Nyx looked down at the abyss, and a blush flooded her beautiful face.
At the same time, Eros looked not only at Nyx but also at the abyss beneath her feet.
Tartarus felt that Eros was simultaneously directing his divine power at him, using the abilities of love and desire.
Though he had not taken human form, Tartarus had been human in his past life, and fantasies of sexual relations between men and women began to arise within him.
The woman with whom he indulged in passionate love in his illusions was none other than Nyx, the goddess of night!
The illusion dissipated in an instant, and Tartarus experienced a mixture of inexplicable emotions and thoughts.
“First came love and sex, then Eros was born.
In other words, love and sex existed before his appearance—they were not created by his divine power, but were already born.” “So before this, Erebus and Nyx fell in love with each other?
But it seems this is not about me and Nyx?” While Tartarus pondered this, the ensuing conversation gave him the answer.
Nyx looked at Erebus: “Erebus, did you experience illusions?” Erebus replied: “No, I felt Eros using his divine power, but it was too weak to affect me.” Eros, the god of love and desire, said: “Compared to you four, my divine power is too weak.
If you did not already have love and desire, I could not give them to you.” “Just now, I was merely fulfilling your desires in love and sex—making this love more romantic, this passion more beautiful.” Tartarus thought to himself: “Erebus, the god of darkness, had no illusions, but I and Nyx did.
So does that mean love and intimacy arose between us, leading to the birth of Eros?” Although he and Mother Earth Gaia had spent thousands of years together, they had barely communicated and remained in their original, primordial states.
Gaia was very beautiful, and he had even helped absorb the chaotic source, but in reality, it was all for the sake of the plan to become stronger, as hinted by the Book of Creation.
On the other hand, Nyx and the others had communicated a great deal since his birth.
Moreover, Nyx had a beautiful figure and was very charming.
Her youthful allure, every smile and gesture, had indeed captivated Tartarus.
This prompted him, a human in his past life, to harbor certain intimate fantasies about this deity.
Based on this analysis, I realized that I had developed feelings of love and sexual attraction toward Nyx.
But Eros says they desire each other—does that mean Nyx also feels love and sexual attraction toward me?
How could a newborn deity have such thoughts so quickly?
No, isn’t she supposed to be the official partner of Erebus?
Tartarus could never have imagined that the butterfly effect would manifest so quickly.
The birth of the primordial gods had already begun to change the course of events in the world!
At that moment, Eros looked at Nyx, and from time to time at the abyss beneath her feet.
The goddess of night, Nyx, did not look at Erebus.
Perhaps the power of Eros, the god of love, had intensified her attraction to love and sex.
Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she stared somewhat dazedly at the ground.
Tartarus, carefully sensing the presence of Eros and Nyx, was now completely certain.
It was clearly him and Nyx!
Nyx had fallen in love with him!
“I have not yet achieved deification—I am merely the abyss itself.
Can love exist in such a state?” Tartarus realized that he needed to change his worldview.
They were gods, not the humans they had been in their past lives.
In essence, he was the abyss, and Nyx was the night.
This was a special love and sexual connection between gods, between night and the abyss—not simply between humans, and not limited by the presence or absence of a divine body.
“I am going to the earth, you three.
If you wish to find me, hold love in your hearts and call my name, and I will appear before you.” Having said this, Eros, the god of love and desire, vanished.
“The earth, the night, the day, and…” Tartarus seized the opportunity to leave his sentence unfinished.
The original plan had been suddenly disrupted by Eros.
Naturally, Tartarus intended to continue his plan to absorb the chaotic source.
“And what?” Nyx’s interest was once again piqued.
“Your memories are confused again?
Even without reason, this is possible?” Erebus, the god of darkness, asked in confusion.
