Chapter 184: I Really Want A Child!
And before Their separation, as expected, this sacred Lady of Justice also inevitably brought a trace of shyness and determination, requesting Zeus to exchange a lock of hair with her, tying them together as a vow.
Even Themis, who is steadfast in principles and upholds justice, could not remain unmoved in the face of this eternal token of connection.
Zeus naturally agreed gladly.
This is a matter of attitude, and attitude is always the most important!
Anyway, His and Themis’s hair colors are both brilliant gold, just with slight differences in tone; swapping them makes no major difference, not too conspicuous, not enough to make this amorous God King’s hair color become multicolored so quickly.
Congratulations, congratulations.
And from the union with Order, the benefits Zeus obtained were not just these; from then on, the authority of “Darkness” was also thoroughly taken into His possession.
After fully possessing Order, after mastering Destiny and time sequences, achieving near-absolute omniscience, the Darkness devoid of spirituality held no secrets from Him whatsoever.
Even if it is the Origin and Foundation from the beginning of Existence, even if it is the indispensable Dark Energy of the Universe, everything is now fully under His control.
With His supreme God King ruling authority, with His authority as Master of Heavenly Dao Order, Master of Divine Network System, Great Father of Destiny and Time Sequences, and Ruler of Spirituality, He has thoroughly incorporated Darkness into His own divine control.
And not just that, those gods cast into Tartarus, Their authorities are also under Zeus’s control; during the time the original master is “offline,” God King Zeus is the absolute primary controller.
When Zeus returned to the gods’ feast with Themis and the six newborn goddesses radiating supreme authority radiance all around them, the God King, in front of all the gods, personally announced the honor and authority of these six children with utmost solemnity and gravity.
Inside the Palace, most gods cheered and rejoiced for this. Of course, the envy was real too.
But They all understood in their hearts that an authority like “Heavenly Dao Order administrator,” concerning the fundamentals of the Universe, the God King could only give to His own children.
Now the Universe’s Order has several more powerful combers, meaning the heavy burdens on Their shoulders as gods can also be correspondingly lightened, which is undoubtedly a great good deed.
As for the rest, thinking too much would only bring self-inflicted trouble.
But while saying so, there were indeed a very few gods whose hearts became even more filled with jealousy and envy; no need to name them, those who get it, get it.
And many goddesses’ hearts soured again.
Amid the brilliant group of goddesses, an ocean brewed from heartache and envy had already surged.
Even Metis, who was always gentle and magnanimous, was filled with envy at this moment.
She watched with her own eyes as Zeus gained one cute child after another, but she herself, as the God King’s first wife, still had nothing to this day.
She was so envious she wanted to stamp her feet!
The Omniscient Goddess was also sour beyond measure; to be fair, though they were all the God King’s children, her own children’s authorities were completely not as great as her good sister’s children’s authorities.
But she quickly adjusted her mindset; after all, in terms of quantity, she had three more children than her good sister!
Moreover
The Omniscient Goddess, with countless thoughts, had her bright and beautiful eyes turn slightly, already deciding to quickly advance the plan!
With more and more goddesses around her beloved God King, she must let Zeus enjoy ahead of time what cosmic bliss is!
Absolutely cannot let other little slutty goddesses take Zeus away!
Her own God King, in front of beautiful goddesses, unless it was a matter of principle, always had no principles.
Thinking of this, the Civilization Memory Goddess disdainfully glanced at a certain goddess whose name she wouldn’t reveal, but who was already envious and jealous to the point of red eyes, the Goddess of Night.
Lady of Night now gazed at these six newborn goddesses shining with boundless radiance; her night eyes, originally containing the entire Starry Sky, had turned a fresh red from envy, staring madly in her heart.
Look! Everyone look! What kind of great authorities are these!
Destiny! Time sequences! These are the foundations of Cosmic Order!
Even the authorities held by Night paled in comparison.
Especially the authorities her own children possessed—not only did they provoke envy among the gods, but coming back from a trip without getting beaten was already considered good luck.
Originally, Nyx had been scheming loudly in her heart, thinking that once the Heavenly Dao Order Weaving was complete, regulatory gods would inevitably be needed—how convenient!
With her union with Zeus, given her and the God King’s status, wouldn’t the child they gestate be naturally the god of Heavenly Dao Order regulation?
But the outcome? Now it was all ruined! All gone to Themis!
Truly, those who act early eat their fill, those who act late don’t even get soup!
But that’s not right either! She acted quite early!
In the end, it was those little slutty gods of Olympus who were too shameless!
Being close allowed them to seduce my Zeus!
Lady of Night was now seething with hatred in her heart; being far away was still a disadvantage, and a big one!
She once again resolved with determination: must hurry! Must truly unite with Zeus as soon as possible!
Must quickly gestate children belonging to Them! If dragging on like this, the good Laws would really all be gone.
Goddesses, after obtaining, always want more.
When they don’t have, they want to possess; after possessing, they want better; after better, they still want more.
Even great primordial gods are no exception.
Or rather, precisely because they possess the most vigorous and vast divinity, the Love and Desire they have is also more enthusiastic.
But not every god is the sacred Goddess of Justice; only the Goddess of Order of Justice is worthy of the God King entrusting her with the supreme authority to manage the entire Universe.
As for Goddess Hera, who had just shared an intimate moment with Zeus and barely improved her mood, she now once again thoroughly sank into that suffocating sea of jealousy.
Her essential divinity as the Great Mother Goddess kept fiercely urging her to quickly gestate children!
Before gestating children, her divine authority is incomplete.
Even the entire Universe, in the darkness, instinctively urged her.
Urging this Great Mother Goddess who holds Fertility and Reproduction to quickly fulfill her sacred duty, to bring more perfect, more harmonious development to this newborn Universe!
She immensely admired Themis’s noble and selfless divine quality, and moreover, she now had no standing to say more.
After all, Themis was the wife formally announced by Zeus in front of the gods.
But she really, really envied those cute children too!
She had forcibly suppressed that longing from the origin of Laws, from the depths of her divinity, far too many times.
She just didn’t want, didn’t want to gestate children alone.
She only wanted to bear children with her beloved Zeus, children belonging to Them!
But she felt that she probably really couldn’t hold out much longer.
That incomparably vigorous urge from the depths of her divinity, originating from the Universe’s deepest Fertility Desire, grew ever stronger as the Universe’s Order became more perfect.
The entire Universe thirsted for the Great Mother Goddess of “Fertility” to quickly perfect her authority, bringing better development to the entire Universe.
Such pressure was not so easy to suppress.
But with the current situation, she really couldn’t accept becoming “one of” Zeus’s many wives.
Her mind was a flurry of thoughts, her divine power surging and undulating like turbulent waves.
But in the end, she forcibly suppressed it all, saying nothing, just silently drinking the divine wine.
Only, this originally incomparably sweet divine wine now tasted nothing but bitterness no matter how she drank it.
There were simply too many envious goddesses; it was simply that these six goddesses newly gestated by Zeus and Themis were too perfect, their authorities too powerful and vast—saying they weren’t envious would be fake.
But Zeus now had no mind to care about the goddesses’ little concerns.
The Council of Gods should now formally begin.
His gaze had just turned to the Deep Ocean, where that foolish Menoetius still hadn’t found Amalthea’s gestation place.
With the Council of Gods about to commence, this perfect tool god for “establishing prestige” surprisingly wasn’t prepared—truly too useless.
But Zeus had no intention to deliberately calculate against Him; just let everything follow its natural course.
Destiny’s outcome would be His own choice.
Council of Gods, commence!
Zeus slowly stood, positioned at the highest point of the gods’ feast Divine Palace; He lightly raised His hand, and instantly, the Inside the Hall shifted from noisy clamor to utter silence.
On the God King’s handsome face was a gentle smile as He said in a resounding divine voice: “Gods, let us pause this joyful feast for now.”
“In the Universe, too many gods have waited too long. This brand-new, sacred Order should now be formally declared to them.”
“I announce that now, the Council of Gods formally begins!”
The gods responded in unison, dispelling the slight intoxication around them, and successively extended their heaven-supporting, earth-standing majestic divine bodies.
In an instant, the infinite divine power of the many Great Gods surged and intersected, nearly shattering this space-time entirely!
Zeus did not manifest His even more magnificent Thunder divine body.
Now, He no longer needed to borrow this to display His majesty.
The many Great Gods manifesting their divine bodies was to show their sole King’s highest respect in this grandest occasion!
His figure, amid these many heaven-supporting, earth-standing Great Gods, no matter how “small” it appeared, no god would dare to shift their gaze from Him for even a moment.
Even if He merely murmured a Whisper unintentionally, all gods in the Universe would immediately focus entirely, bow, and listen attentively.
However, Zeus was not without change.
His appearance slowly shifted from that unparalleled handsome youth to a mature man with thick beard and profound gaze.
This change, though losing some delicacy, added infinite solemnity and majesty of ruling over the heavens.
