Chapter 41: Hypocritical God King!
Gazing at this divine mountain as majestic and towering as Mount Othrys of old, the anger in Cronus’s heart was completely ignited into an endless sea of fire.
His divine pupils were filled with raging flames, wanting to burn everything before him to ashes!
If He had not lost the Flame Law, at this moment, He would surely ignite a true blazing fire that incinerates heaven and earth, turning this mountain of rebellion, along with all the deities on it, to ashes together!
Ever since devouring Hestia, His rage had more than once turned into real blazing flames, truly incinerating everything before Him.
Unless the reason that provoked Him is completely burned away, the God King’s rage will never cease.
The authority of fire is explosive and powerful, while also containing infinite life and energy, the purest force of destruction and rebirth in the world.
Losing the authority of fire, this incomparably powerful Supreme God King has also lost His sharpest, most destructive means of attack, which is undoubtedly a huge weakening for Him.
Although His Majesty the God King was already furious to the extreme, He had just been schemed against by Zeus after all, so the cunning Him still decided to be polite before resorting to force.
A majestic voice that shakes all heavens and myriad lands rang out like a great bell at the peak of Mount Olympus, shaking the entire mountain range: “Rhea, my Goddess Queen, why do you not come out to see me?”
The next instant, the gods who had already prepared everything flew into the sky led by Zeus and Rhea, facing Cronus from afar.
The God King’s rage soared to the heavens; even a blind man could see clearly that the destructive divine power blanketed the sky, so how could Zeus and the others not prepare in advance for battle?
Zeus had originally told Metis to hide, but Metis said nothing and firmly followed behind Zeus.
She had an immensely firm determination to fight side by side with Zeus.
This also represented Oceanus’s attitude; the entire Ocean Current god system had gone all in completely!
No more pretending, completely turning hostile!
The two camps stood facing each other; one side had the gods standing tall and proud, with momentum like a rainbow, full of young and vigorous power.
The other side was a lone god, though solitary in form, yet majestic in every way, not diminishing in the slightest the supreme majesty He had accumulated as the ruler of the universe for countless years.
The two powerful divine power fields clashed fiercely in heaven and earth, emitting a silent roar, causing heaven and earth to change color, the entire world permeated with a tangible killing aura.
Rhea, this usually mild and loving Mother Goddess, her divine countenance always carried a warm smile.
But at this moment, she was utterly indifferent, covered in frost, without a trace of smile, only bottomless determination.
“Cronus, what more do you have to say?”
Her voice was clear and cold, firm like an ice spike, piercing straight into Cronus’s heart.
As soon as Rhea spoke, it made the rage in Cronus’s heart even greater.
His Goddess Queen even refused to address Him as “God King.”
This was undoubtedly a complete denial of Him!
Cronus forcibly suppressed the rage that nearly burst from his chest with great difficulty, trying hard to squeeze out a smile, but ultimately failed to succeed.
At best, it only prevented that majestic face from showing malice, though it was as cold and stern as abyssal ice, inspiring awe in the gods at a glance.
“Rhea, my Goddess Queen, you shared all the honors of the universe with me; why betray me?” Cronus asked knowingly.
In truth, He simply could not accept that He had been successfully deceived and harmed by His own Goddess Queen.
Hearing this, Rhea angrily rebuked: “Enough! Cronus, under your tyrannical rule, whether it is me or the gods, what honor is there to speak of? Honor has long been trampled to pieces by your greed and tyranny!”
“I never betrayed you! It was you! You betrayed the gods! You harmed the gods!”
“You violated the laws of the world’s evolution; you have a heart as greedy as Father God, your behavior even more tyrannical than Father God! You are simply the greatest scourge of the universe!”
The cunning God King suppressed his rage and was still trying to use tricks; He said with apparent sincerity: “Rhea, we are the most intimate husband and wife and comrades; I will forever share honor with you.”
“Think about it; if I did not absolutely trust you, how could your scheme against me have succeeded?”
In fact, Mother Goddess Rhea’s disguise was not that good; she had even moved out of the God King’s divine palace.
The main reason was that the God King at that time was already insufferably arrogant, arrogant to the point of losing all vigilance.
The hypocritical God King’s words had not yet stopped: “Perhaps some things I did were not correct enough, but I guarantee everything was for our honor, for the honor of the Celestial God.”
He paused, adjusted his state, his tone even more sincere, then continued in a warm voice: “Those things are all in the past; I am willing to forgive everything of yours.”
“Including, including our children, everything they have done, I can let it all go.”
“It is not too late now; you can make the correct choice again and return under my wings.”
The God King reluctantly squeezed out a somewhat stiff smile and said as mildly as possible: “Look at our children; they have all grown up, become such great gods, possessing immortal power, worthy of Heavenly Father Uranus’s legacy and our noble bloodline.”
“We are a family; there is no need to stage this farce of mutual slaughter, wasting our strength in vain. Let us join hands to build a better universe, creating even brighter glory together!”
“I, Son of Uranus, Supreme God King Cronus, hereby formally invite you to return to my embrace; let us share the supreme honor of the universe together!”
“You must know that many great gods in the world hope we fight to the death, consuming the God King Family’s strength; they will never be as close as us—do not let their malicious schemes succeed.”
At this point, Cronus specifically glanced at Metis; the meaning in that gaze was very clear, directly pointing to her father god, Ocean Current Oceanus.
Sowing discord was just a casual trick for the God King.
As soon as the words fell, He opened His broad embrace, his expression carrying a self-satisfied smile, and said passionately: “Rhea, my beloved, my Goddess Queen, my children, let us share the honor of the universe!”
“Do not be deceived by those with conspiracies and malice; only when our God King Family is united can we truly possess the supreme honor of the universe and stand invincible forever!”
Rhea was not a god skilled in eloquent words; hearing Cronus’s honeyed words, she naturally would not believe His hypocrisy.
After so many years, how could she not know what kind of person Cronus was?
But for the moment, facing Cronus’s rhetoric, she did not know how to reply, only feeling a sense of helplessness.
In the instant of Rhea’s silence, Zeus threw his head back and laughed heartily, that laughter filled with disdain and mockery.
