Chapter 258: Spring Is Approaching
They exchanged silent glances, only able to sigh that they were, after all, close sisters who had shared hardships and enjoyed prosperity together; no matter what happened between them, a joke or a hug would make it all pass.
As for worry, there was none at all.
Joking aside, did they really think that just because they were goddesses, they were easy to bully?
With these three Great Goddesses joining forces, in the absence of the God King and those few top Great Gods making a move, they could traverse the Three Realms and Three Domains back and forth three times with ease.
Moreover, with their status, who would dare show even a hint of disrespect? Did they really think the God King wouldn’t lose his temper?
The rare tranquility of the two sister goddesses allowed them to gaze at the table full of divine wine and ambrosia without any intention of wasting it.
Estimating that the Mistress wouldn’t return for a short while and nothing would happen, they sat down at ease, pouring for each other, and freely shared in drinking and tasting.
During this recent period, these sisters were also weighed down with heavy hearts.
With this rare tranquility, they still needed to get properly drunk.
At the same time, the Eternal Holy Goddess Queen Rhea Mother Goddess, who had been watching the three harmonious and intimate rosy clouds descending to the mortal world and had always been somewhat worried, finally set her heart at rest.
She watched the fading light and shadows of her children, a relieved smile appearing on her exquisite face that could make heaven and earth lose color, and even her brilliant and dazzling beautiful hair fluttered easily.
Then, she looked toward the golden clouds and rosy glow still rolling across the sky, quite helplessly blaming and glaring at it.
This child, who made her the proudest, could be said to be perfect without flaw.
He was a truly perfect God King, a great sovereign who brought justice and tranquility to all living beings in the entire universe.
Only one thing!
When it came to romantic affairs, he was overly greedy and overly promiscuous!
He was truly beyond saving!
On Mount Olympus, just going out for a casual stroll could lead to encountering at least five goddesses with intimate relations to Him!
Although… this wasn’t without its benefits.
At least, her lovely grandchildren had increased by a great many.
The family was becoming ever more prosperous and glorious, and Olympus was becoming ever more lively.
With the children often accompanying her, life was indeed happy.
Um… well, it’s just that when occasionally meeting her good sisters again, there would be just a tiny bit more awkwardness…
The Eternal Holy Goddess Queen Rhea Mother Goddess held an absolutely transcendent position on Olympus, and her life was perfectly fulfilling.
It couldn’t be said to be entirely without flaw.
The only thing that still gave her a headache to this day was that child who worried her the most—Poseidon.
Now, that foolish son was still alone in the cold Underworld River, lonely and blowing bubbles…
Rhea Mother Goddess ultimately still felt heartbroken for her own child.
She thought that she must find a suitable opportunity to plead with Zeus for mercy, and it would be better to have him released early.
In that icy, bone-chilling Underworld River that eroded all will, soaking alone as a solitary god—that kind of torment was truly unbearable.
Sigh, she could only wait for the right moment.
After all, the mistake that foolish son had committed was truly too excessive.
Without a good opportunity, she as a mother really couldn’t bring herself to speak up.
The golden clouds at the horizon remained, the aurora unceasing.
And the three gentle rosy clouds had quietly descended to the mortal world.
There, the bonfire was burning brightly.
Spring was also drawing near.
After His Majesty the God King finally left the Temple of Wisdom feeling refreshed, He hesitated for one or two instants above the clouds but ultimately first returned to His own supreme God King Divine Palace.
He naturally knew of Demeter awakening, and it wasn’t just Demeter who was anxious; how to arrange things next still needed careful consideration.
There was no method; His Majesty the God King was always attending to myriad state affairs. Properly coordinating the affections of many goddesses was also a major matter concerning the stability of the universe.
The most gentle and virtuous Maia, upon seeing the God King return, had a flash of joy in her eyes like stars.
But immediately after, that joy turned into three parts perfectly measured resentment and seven parts irrepressible longing.
However, her actions did not stop; from afar, she had already stepped forward with those legs that were truly as long and straight as divine palace pillars, going to greet Him.
The gentle Maia deeply knew that His Majesty the God King greatly favored her pair of most charming long legs.
Therefore, she never minded displaying the charms she was most proud of without reservation before her beloved Majesty.
By the standards of her normal divine body, her height was already comparable to Zeus’s.
Thus, to maintain the propriety of sovereign and subject, and to satisfy her beloved Majesty’s harmless little “hobby,” she never wore any footwear, and her long skirt was the type with high slits like a cheongsam.
After all, as His Majesty’s intimate little maidservant, appearing taller than His Majesty would be quite disrespectful. Though His Majesty wouldn’t mind such things.
As for what His Majesty liked, not letting Him see it at all times would be even more inappropriate. For His Majesty’s special hobby, as His intimate little maidservant, she naturally should strive to satisfy it.
Her stature was extremely tall and upright, exceptionally graceful and beautiful; one must know that being equal in height to Zeus was no ordinary tallness.
And precisely because of this, her jade feet were completely unrelated to words like “petite and exquisite.”
However, compared to pure petite-ness, proportions were naturally more important.
This pair of tender hands she often left bare had extremely fine proportions, and their shape was absolutely exquisite; otherwise, she wouldn’t be so confident in baring them.
The arch curve was like springtime willows, supple and elegant; the skin texture surpassed winter ice and snow, delicate and smooth; the ten toes were crystalline and plump, like morning dew on jade or deep sea pearls.
After God King Zeus’s personal, repeated, in-depth practical experience and authoritative verification, His Majesty the God King could responsibly say.
Currently, among the goddesses of Olympus, Maia’s long legs were in a league of their own as exquisite treasures; and her jade feet were second only to His beloved golden-boots Hera.
Now, their Atlas Family had basically integrated into the new order of the universe.
Although Atlas was currently still an idle god official, at least he had regained his freedom.
After Zeus fully forgave Atlas, the last trace of worry and inferiority in the hearts of these lovely little goddesses completely dissipated.
This also allowed more little goddesses to muster the courage to pursue their own happiness.
At least, they no longer felt that their family was a level below other gods.
The wise and virtuous Maia thought the same.
These Third Generation Titan Goddesses now not only each had their own honors, but she and her sisters were also the esteemed God King’s Close Attendants.
It could be said that they remained an unignorable powerful family in the entire universe.
What’s more…
His Majesty the God King He… He even…
Sigh, she just didn’t know when she could truly be taken into the hall by His Majesty the God King? And whether she could have any official status?
If she could become His Majesty’s legitimate wife, even ranking beyond tenth place would be fine!
Welcoming the God King were not only Maia, but also her equally lovely and beautiful little sisters.
The Seven Pleiades, the Five Hyades, and Thaumas’s daughters— the bright Iris and the black-bellied Alke.
And at the very back, approaching with graceful steps, the Daughter of the Ocean—Clymene.
This extraordinarily powerful Second Generation Titan Goddess, who had once been heartbroken, after venting all her grievances and pain to her father god and mother goddess, had hurried back to continue fulfilling her duties as the God King’s “Head Steward.”
Now, her eldest son Atlas had been forgiven, and her third son Prometheus and fourth son Epimetheus had received immense favors.
It could be said that, aside from her utterly useless husband Iapetus and second son Menoetius, things were basically fulfilled.
The current situations of her three sons, and being able to stay in this most peaceful and beautiful God King Divine Palace, accompanied every day by these lovely children, were enough to soothe her long-tormented heart.
These lovely children’s lives in the God King Divine Palace were relaxed and joyful.
This warm and relaxed atmosphere, after she let go of all her pressures, suddenly made heaven and earth feel vast, and even her mindset felt much younger.
The only thing that often made her silently complain inwardly was her respected God King Majesty’s incorrigible promiscuity.
Not to mention the other goddesses outside the hall, just these lovely children in the God King Divine Palace alone—she didn’t even know how many had unclear relations with His Majesty the God King.
She even suspected if it was all of them…
After all, when these children had free time, what they discussed most when gathered together was His Majesty the God King.
Looking at the God King, surrounded by two or three circles of little goddesses and laughing heartily, her heart held a complaint shared by nearly all gods:
This His Majesty the God King, perfect without a single flaw, was truly unrestrained to the extreme only in romantic affairs.
The only comfort was that fortunately, these children wouldn’t fight over favor to the point of no return…
It couldn’t be said there was absolutely no fighting, only that at least it wouldn’t truly harm the feelings between sisters.
To be fair, in the God King Divine Palace, Zeus’s these lovely little goddesses engaged in quite fierce competition for His favor.
After all, apart from His promiscuity, their Majesty truly had not a single flaw.
Even just getting a few extra glances each day at His Majesty’s peerlessly handsome face was enough to keep them in a joyful mood all day.
His Majesty was generous, gentle and approachable, affable to gods, and never minded everyone playfully fooling around with Him.
Daily, these little goddesses could only see this one male god, Zeus; under such circumstances, it was hard not to fall for Him.
Moreover, the object of their affection had only this one choice.
These clever little goddesses naturally understood this in their hearts.
As the God King Majesty’s personal inner attendants, they could only belong to, and would only belong to, this great God King.
