Greece: I am Zeus!

Chapter 161 The fight started!

As soon as she finished speaking, she changed the subject, looking at Zeus with a half-smile: "Speaking of which, don't tell me you can't see Eurynome's feelings for you at all."

"She's obsessed with you every day. When are you going to take my poor sister in as well?"

Zeus quickly shook his head: "My dear Metis, I really have nothing to do with Eurynome."

'At least not now.' The amorous god-king silently added in his heart.

Metis gave a soft snort and said nothing more.

After Zeus's astonishing divine intervention, she now truly understands the situation.

What she just witnessed truly startled her and broke her heart.

But at the same time, it also made her feel an unprecedented sense of being cherished and happy.

Her beloved was, after all, a god-king, yet he had gone to such lengths for her. What more could she ask for?

She stopped talking about Eurynome and started talking about something else: "Dione, my new sister, the Father and Mother have sent me a message and told me everything."

Her gaze turned incredibly serious, and she continued in the manner of a principal wife, "Now that she has a child with you, it is inappropriate for her to remain alone in the depths of the ocean."

“If a goddess marries a god, then she should follow her god’s side.”

“I will invite her to Olympus. The child should grow up healthily at the top of the gods.”

Zeus pondered for a moment, and finally nodded slightly.

He hugged Metis even tighter in his arms and said in a voice full of emotion, "My dearest love, thank you for your tolerance and generosity. It is my fault that you have suffered such an injustice."

Metis, however, gently raised her hand and used her slender fingers to once again block Zeus's lips.

She gazed intently at Zeus, her eyes—those of a daughter of the ocean, seemingly never-ending in their flow—appearing to be brimming with emotion once more.

"My love, please don't say these things anymore. I love you, so I will accept all of you. Rather than make you unhappy and troubled, I would rather bear this insignificant pain myself."

"Zeus, Zeus, you are my lord, my king, my father. As long as you are happy, I will be happy. My mood will always change with you."

Zeus could no longer utter a word, but he held Metis tightly, deeply moved, and was reluctant to let go.

Metis slowly closed her beautiful eyes, quietly feeling her lover's strong and warm embrace, but in her heart, she had already quietly changed her strategy!

Since we cannot change the amorous nature of our beloved god-king, let's accept it all positively!
You must create the most advantageous and unshakeable situation for yourself!
You must never be like some goddesses who wallow in self-pity and throw tantrums all day long.

In the end, all that fuss will not only lead to no good outcome, but will also push the man who originally loved her deeply into the arms of those other scheming and scheming goddesses!

The goddess of wisdom knew very well that a goddess's most powerful weapon was always her intellect and gentleness.

This is a weapon that even the God-King cannot withstand.

It's okay if you can't be the only one, but you must be the most important! You are number one!

Finally, the goddess of wisdom asked Zeus not to worry about these "trivial matters" anymore, and to leave everything to her. Zeus readily agreed.

In any case, Dione is himself, and even if there are some minor frictions between him and Metis, it doesn't matter.

Moreover, Dione was also the daughter of the ocean, and Metis's "sister".

Given Metis's temperament, he believed she was unlikely to do anything dishonorable.

The problem with Metis has been temporarily resolved.

After his beloved goddess of wisdom left, Zeus began to seriously consider how to appease the enraged Lady of Night.

He now knows just how heinous a thing Mnemosyne had done.

This was giving him a terrible headache.

Don't be fooled by how charming and obedient Nyx appears in his presence.

But she is definitely not some kind of easy-going, good-tempered goddess!
It should be noted that the ultimate fates of the first two God-Kings were directly and immensely related to her!
This Lady of the Night is not some magnanimous goddess, but a vengeful primordial ruler.

This provocation from Mnemosyne was a great humiliation for her.

Coupled with her already overflowing jealousy and intense envy towards the goddess, she's definitely going to cause a huge scene!

However, Zeus did not have a headache for long. Right after Metis left, he sensed that a battle had broken out on Mount Olympus!
Nyx, who had been staring intently at Mount Olympus, wanted to act immediately after seeing the thick fog that had enveloped the mountains dissipate.

However, sensing that Zeus was with Mnemosyne at the time, she temporarily suppressed her anger. Until she saw Zeus separated from the all-knowing goddess and their children, the goddess of night, with a cold, ruthless smile, immediately stormed up Mount Olympus!

Meanwhile, on Zeus's side, just as he was meeting Metis, Nyx had already found her target for this trip—Menemosene!

The boundless, oppressive darkness, like a giant black velvet curtain, swiftly shrouded the entire mountain where the Mnemosyne Temple was located.

The chilling, dangerous aura emanating from the pure darkness frightened the newly born Muses, causing them to shrink back into the embrace of their mother.

In this absolute darkness, they could see nothing and perceive nothing, as if all existence had been stripped away.

However, while this tactic might frighten young children, it wouldn't frighten the all-knowing goddess who already knows everything.

She simply soothed her children in a gentle voice, displaying an almost contemptuous indifference towards the ever-growing, hostile darkness of the night.

It was precisely this attitude of disregard that further enraged the enraged Lady Night.

The Lady of the Night, dressed in a gorgeous black starry gauze dress, had a face that was both holy and dignified, but now it was filled with a chilling coldness. Her eyes, which should have been deep and serene, were now burning with a fierce rage.

Her figure appeared silently before Mnemosyne.

The goddess of night, with the last shred of her reason, suppressed the urge to attack directly. Instead, she questioned him in an extremely stern and hateful tone: "Monemosne! You despicable god! You have no shame whatsoever!"

"What have you shown me? What are you trying to do?!"

The Lady of Night's voice trembled with rage: "You vile and shameless god! How dare you seduce Zeus!"

"you you you!"

"How can someone as shameless as you be worthy of receiving the love of the God-King!"

Mnemosyne merely sneered at this, saying in a condescending tone, "What? You want to bully Zeus's daughters?"

"Make way for my children to go home first."

The goddess of night nearly lost all control of her anger for a moment, but she was, after all, a great mother goddess, and knew the gravity of the matter.

She gave a reluctant snort, and only then did the impenetrable darkness part slightly.

The Muses, filled with fear and unease, were worried about their mother goddess, but upon hearing her request, they obediently returned to their own palace.

Some of the nymphs and elemental spirits who originally served Monemosne seized this rare opportunity and quickly ran away with their young masters.

They dared not get involved in the conflict between these two great goddesses; it would truly be fatal. Forget getting involved, if they were even slightly slow to escape, they would likely die.

Once only the two deities remained in the temple, Mnemosyne immediately let out another cold laugh and said disdainfully, "Nyx, what right do you have to criticize me here?"

"You're two generations older than Zeus! And you're just a mere night god!"

"How shameless! Trying to cling to Zeus like a little girl?!"

"I respect you and call you Lady of the Night. If I didn't give you face, what are you anyway?!"

The omniscient goddess uttered one hurtful sentence after another without stopping: "I am Zeus's destined wife, his eternal and inseparable lover!"

"My children, as you can see, they are the fruits of my love with the great Zeus!"

"Hmph, don't think that just because you seduced Zeus with those despicable means, you've truly become an indispensable being in this world!"

"Zeus is kind and gentle, but that doesn't give you the right to act recklessly!"

Mnemosyne scoffed again, continuing to cut into the dignity of the Lady of Night with the sharp blade of her words: "Don't even think about taking more than you deserve. You've already received unprecedented honors, yet you still want to take more from Zeus?"

"You should stay obediently in your dark underground! It is already a great honor for you that the great Zeus occasionally graces your realm with his favor!"

"I am willing to show you that memory; it is a gift I give you, so that you may clearly understand that Zeus's favorite goddess will forever reside on this Mount Olympus!"

"Don't have any unrealistic fantasies. You really want to leave Zeus in your desolate, sunless land? How presumptuous of you! Mind your place!"

"Zeus is the highest of the heavens, and you are but the lowest of the underworld; Zeus is the most glorious lord of thunder, and you, ah, are but the darkest of nights!"

"It seems you haven't understood my 'teaching'."

"How dare you come to Olympus, trespass into my temple, and question me to my face? What audacity! You greedy 'Night'!"
