Chapter 51: Iapetus: Loyalty!
The sacred and majestic Goddess of Justice and Order Themis, she is forever so sacred and pure, majestic and sage, with golden hair and golden eyes radiating warm radiance.
She is forever clad in White Robes, holy and flawless, with a peerlessly beautiful jade-like countenance, sacred and inviolable, bright and beautiful eyes, resilient and resolute.
However, this beautiful and flawless goddess, her fists are also very hard!
Gods capable of defending order are without exception extremely formidable gods.
Without formidable power, it is impossible to defend order.
At this moment, this sacred and noble goddess, upon hearing Iapetus’s words, immediately scolded majestically: “Enough, Iapetus, do you understand sacred order better than I do?”
The sacred Goddess of Justice unceremoniously scolded Iapetus: “Mother Goddess and Lord of Radiance are not wrong, this is not a violation of cosmic order, Goddess Queen and Son of God King have not destroyed the cosmic order, this is merely God King’s family affair, the gods should not intervene.”
After the beautiful Themis said this, she also felt her tone was a bit heavy, softened slightly, and said to Cronus: “Your Majesty the God King, if there is truly a violation of just order, I will certainly intervene to punish it.”
The moment Themis finished speaking, she turned into golden light and departed, leaving Iapetus speechless after being rebuked.
Cronus was now expressionless, his face covered in frost, completely silent.
Civilization Memory Goddess Mnemosyne, her gentle and graceful eyebrows mischievously twitched lightly, a meaningful smile hanging at the corner of her mouth.
She said softly: “Respected Your Majesty the God King, Son of Uranus, I have no combat ability at all, as for your family affair, I certainly cannot intervene.”
After saying that, she too turned and left without hesitation.
In this short time, the Great Gods inside the Divine Palace had mostly left.
Or rather, aside from God King Cronus, only Iapetus and his children remained.
For a moment, the Divine Palace was left with Iapetus standing there awkwardly, now even doubting whether he should leave as well.
Whether he should truly heed his wife Clymene’s dissuasion?
But his deep-rooted loyalty to Cronus ultimately made him choose to stay.
Cronus’s face was no longer just unsightly, he was now practically the God King of Frost, his expression utterly terrifying.
He smashed the throne of the Goddess Queen beside him to pieces with a backhand, yet the rage in his heart could not dissipate, instead burning ever more fiercely, nearly devouring him once again.
He looked at the hesitant Iapetus and was startled, fearing that this sole loyalist would also leave him.
He hurriedly said: “Iapetus, my dearest comrade, do not believe their words of blockade, they have already abandoned the sacred oaths they once swore.”
“They have forgotten the origin of our honor, they fear the enemy, they harbor unspeakable sinful thoughts in their hearts.”
“They may forget, but we cannot, for our honor, we must unite as one and defeat these destroyers of order.”
Iapetus nodded heavily, deciding to trust Cronus after all.
Just like countless times before, Cronus would always achieve ultimate victory.
In the end, the one possessing all honor would only be Cronus.
He is the most courageous, most powerful God King.
At this moment, Atlas, who had been slapped away by Gaia, finally returned.
He had not suffered any substantial harm, merely lost face. But being disciplined by Mother Goddess Gaia could not be considered too humiliating.
He had long returned to Mount Othrys, but did not dare enter the Divine Palace directly, instead quietly watching many Great Gods leave from outside, and only entered cautiously once it seemed few gods remained.
Upon entering the hall, he quickly scanned around, confirmed that Mother Goddess Gaia had also left, let out a long breath of relief, then strode forward confidently.
“Your Majesty the God King, Father God, what happened?” Atlas asked loudly.
Cronus glanced at him, too lazy to speak, merely waving a hand.
Prometheus pulled Atlas to the side and quietly told him everything that had happened and all that occurred inside the Divine Palace.
Upon hearing this, Atlas was furious, his rough voice loud and resounding, shaking the magnificent Divine Palace: “Cowardly gods! They have abandoned their sacred oaths and trampled sacred order!”
“Great Your Majesty the God King, there is no need to rely on these cowardly gods, with just us, it is enough to completely destroy all the rebel minions!”
Prometheus, this Foreseer, in the Iapetus Family’s combination of civil and martial talents, was responsible for the “civil” part.
It was just that his father and brothers seemed to look down on this “civil” ability, they were more obsessed with formidable power.
He now inwardly lamented, big brother has only rage in his divine blood, second brother only recklessness in his mind.
Father God’s mind has even more only blind loyalty to the God King!
If the God King were still that god admired by the gods, still that unrivaled God King, then firmly following by the God King’s side would absolutely be the most correct thing.
But
But now it is obvious, Son of Cronus is already far more like the master of the universe than Cronus.
The gods have all turned away from the God King, parted ways, drifting ever further.
Continuing to be diehard loyal to the God King, this, is afraid to be a dead end!
Prometheus looked at his father god and brother, gave up the idea of persuading them.
Although he was the one responsible for “strategy” in the family’s brave and wise series, his father and brothers often unwilling to listen to schemes differing from their opinions.
Watching the God King and father god negotiate how to start the war, knowing he could not block it, Prometheus was anxious as if on fire.
He knew clearly, he must find a method to pull in formidable Primal Titans as helpers, otherwise only defeat awaited.
He thought and thought, calculating endlessly, ultimately pessimistically discovering that there seemed to be no good method to pull the Titans into the war.
Oceanus and his wife need not be considered, they are no longer pretending, their support for Zeus is already obvious, not personally acting is already the greatest “mercy” and final restraint toward Cronus.
Did no one see how the God King was angered like this, yet in summoning the gods this time, still dared not mention Oceanus, as if the world had no Ocean God.
Ocean God has openly supported Son of Cronus!
And Crius, this Cosmic Framework, as well as Radiance Titan Hyperion and his beautiful wife Theia, they too cannot possibly join, their opinions on the God King are almost impossible to hide.
Look at what was said today, ten parts excuse carrying seven or eight parts sarcasm.
The reasons given were so absurd even gods couldn’t keep a straight face, what family affair?
