Greece: I am Zeus!

Chapter 173 The Weaving of the Heavenly Order (Bonus chapter for Alliance Leader Two and Two Not Two! More tomorrow!)

Zeus smiled slightly and kissed the goddess of harvest's radiant cheek.

This sudden, first intimacy immediately interrupted Demeter's offensive plan, causing her mind to go blank for a moment.

The divine mind was directly infused with honey water by Zeus's sweet actions.

“My dear, how could I not know? But the universe is still in its early stages, and I have many important things to do. For the well-being of all living beings in the universe, I dare not slack off in the slightest.”

"and"

Zeus put on an extremely guilty and troubled look, sighed softly and said, "Demeter, I know your love for me, and in the depths of my divinity, I also have the same love for you."

"But I know that you are the kindest, most benevolent, gentlest, and most delicate goddess."

“But I already have Metis, and I really can’t bear to see you suffer. So I can only keep my love for you deep in my heart and dare not say a word.”

"Because I know that this is too unfair and too cruel to you. It is precisely because I love you so much that I dare not easily touch your heartstrings and bring you heartbreak."

The goddess of harvest burst into laughter through her tears. She nestled tightly in Zeus's arms and said coquettishly, "Zeus, my love, do you know that your estrangement from me is the greatest hurt you have ever caused me!"

“I know I can’t have you all to myself, and I never dared to hope for that.”

"What I want is just like Themis and the others, I also want to be your wife."

The goddess of harvest pleaded pitifully, "Zeus, my love, I am very obedient. I do not ask to possess you exclusively; I only ask to be treated as an equal by you. I only ask to be able to stay by your side forever as your wife."

"Please don't stay away from me anymore, and don't let me be separated from you for too long. Because not being able to have you by my side is truly the greatest torment for me."

Upon hearing this, the highly skilled God-King held the delicate goddess in his arms even tighter.

He sighed deeply, his handsome face furrowed as if he were going through a great emotional struggle.

Then she sighed softly, "My dearest Demeter, how fortunate I am to have such pure love from you. Before you, my whole heart has been completely captured by your tenderness."

"But, but this is just too unfair to you. How can I bear to see your face, which should always be smiling, stained with sadness and displeasure because of me? That would cause my heart to suffer unspeakable pain as well."

The shameless Godfather pulled and tugged for a while, but the delicate and affectionate Goddess of Harvest gazed at Zeus with a dazed look, her vibrant eyes filled only with love for him.

The gentle whispers of the wind rustling through the rice paddies came from her lips: "Zeus, I don't care about any of this, I don't care about anything."

"You are the thunder and rain that nourish all things, and I am the farmland and flowers that carry life. I can only survive by relying on you, because you are my life."

"Only because of you can I grow strong, bloom brilliantly, and bring endless abundance to this world."

“My Zeus, I am destined to be plucked by you, and can only be plucked by you, and I only wish to be plucked by you, the only god. Only by receiving your divine nourishment can I truly live.”

"Dear Zeus, my beloved, you are my chief god, my father, and my only source of life. Please allow me to stay by your side forever, for without you I would surely wither away completely."

Even the most promiscuous god, upon hearing the Goddess of Harvest's confession of giving everything, could not help but be moved, and his strong arms embraced the gentle and obedient goddess even more tightly.

"My dearest Demeter, even if you regret it later, I will never let you leave my side again. I want you to be my eternal wife!"

The gentle and affectionate goddess was overjoyed upon hearing this. She gazed deeply into Zeus's eyes with eyes full of boundless love and said softly, "Zeus, how could I leave you? Even if you asked me to leave, I would never leave, because you are everything to me."

As soon as she finished speaking, the goddess of harvest pressed her full lips against Zeus's thin lips.

She willingly offered Zeus the fresh, sweet, and uniquely delicious fragrance of abundance and grain.

The goddess who appears shy and timid doesn't seem to be truly shy and timid.

After a long while, the amorous god, who had been savoring the sweet taste of maltose, was about to fall in love, but the shy and bold goddess gently pushed Zeus away at just the right moment.

The young goddess of harvest, her sweet face already as red as a ripe berry, asked shyly in a low voice, "Zeus, when will you announce that I am also your wife?"

In a daze, the Lord of Heaven made his promise: "My dear Demeter, please don't be impatient. After I finish this important matter concerning the future of the universe, I will immediately announce this joyous news to the whole universe. This is my promise to you."

Demeter pouted slightly, her glossy lips showing a hint of displeasure, but she didn't say anything more.

Instead, she gently supported herself on Zeus's firm chest with her delicate little hands, pressed her lips to Zeus's ear, and said in an incredibly soft and seductive tone, "Okay, my love, I look forward to that day~"

"Zeus, I'm waiting to have a lovely child with you~ When I become your wife, I will definitely give birth to the most adorable child for you."

The goddess of harvest's full, warm lips were already almost touching Zeus's ear, whispering suggestive words that continued from her infinitely alluring lips: "My love 'Agriculture' can't wait to receive your 'rain' of grace~~~"

"I'm leaving now, I'll wait for your message~"

Before she finished speaking, this goddess of bountiful agriculture had already vanished in the form of a fragrant breeze.

The deity, left lost in his fantasies and aroused by passion, stood frozen in place, feeling extremely uncomfortable and caught between a rock and a hard place.

Zeus smacked his lips, silently savoring the deliciousness of the food in his heart.

Demeter, having left the Temple of Zeus, had completely lost the shy expression on her pretty face, and a triumphant smile curled at the corners of her rosy, smooth lips.

They were just two old goddesses; sooner or later they wouldn't be able to keep up with Zeus.

As for the goddess of wisdom, ah, what wisdom is there to speak of?

It was just good luck; I gained a slight advantage!

But in the end, Zeus will only belong to me!
Since you dared to open this door, and since you don't know how to cherish it.

Then don't blame me for being rude!

I'll make sure you have nothing left! How dare you steal my Zeus!

These haphazard goddesses will never be as close to Zeus as I am!
In every aspect and in every sense, we are closer and more compatible!

That is a natural affinity!
We were born from the same 'fundamental law'!
Zeus had no idea that the lovely and charming Demeter had so many thoughts in her mind; of course, even if he did know, he wouldn't care.

For the gods, who possess eternal life, this was merely some harmless marital intimacy.

During the time that followed, Zeus did not indulge in romantic relationships.

On the contrary, He completely devoted all his energy to his work.

He is currently busy with truly important matters.

After a period of tireless efforts by Zeus and Themis, Zeus's magnificent system of celestial laws and the network of gods finally established a concrete set of rules.

Meanwhile, the gods who had previously made an example of Zeus were now enduring the hardships of working diligently like oxen and horses. Some of them were already secretly complaining, but none dared to disobey Zeus's sacred order.

The time is almost right.

Zeus acted decisively, immediately summoning the relevant gods to prepare for the actual establishment of the celestial order!

The one and only holy goddess Rhea, Oceanus and his wife, the framework of the universe Clios, the lord of the heavens Hyperion, the all-knowing goddess Mnemosyne, as well as the light ethere Aetel, the goddess of day Hemera, the lady of night Nyx, the darkness Hades, and the mother goddess Gaia—these fundamental gods who are the origin of the universe—have now gathered together at the call of the King of Gods.

Zeus looked around at the assembled gods, and his majestic voice slowly rose. He said in a deep voice, "Gods, it is evident that recently, some deities have been affected in the performance of their sacred duties for various reasons."

"After much deliberation, I believe that while it is the gods' duty to make the world a better place, their ultimate goal in making the world a better place is to better enjoy its prosperity."

"Instead of, and should not be bound to endless labor, enduring tedious work until eternity, that would be putting the cart before the horse. The gods should have their own time to enjoy the world."

"Furthermore, for the convenience of all living beings in the universe and the gods, there must be a complete and perfect order that can operate continuously and stably on its own."

"For this reason, I have carefully considered and planned for a long time with the divine and just order, and have come up with a plan to liberate the gods."

"Now, let Themis speak to everyone. Please feel free to express your opinions. Everything is for the sake of the gods and the universe."

Having said that, Zeus nodded gently to his beloved Themis.

The goddess Themis then stood up and solemnly explained the Heavenly Dao System and the Divine Network in detail.

During her explanation, Themis also emphasized, albeit subtly, that this system of celestial order has absolutely no adverse effect on the authority of the gods and absolutely guarantees the divine safety of the gods.

The gods present were all greatly shocked and delighted after hearing her explanation.

This was a tremendous blessing for all the gods present!

Once this new order is established, it means that the authority of all the great deities that form its foundation will truly and thoroughly penetrate into every aspect of the deepest level of the universe.

From then on, the more prosperous and powerful the universe became, the more powerful and important they themselves became, and they were completely bound together with the entire universe.

After careful consideration, the gods present found no adverse effects or hidden dangers.

After all, this specific order was woven together from scratch by everyone, and any problems in it could not be hidden from any of the original gods present.

The God-King is unlikely to be a sinister god with malicious intentions. Besides, even the Goddess of Divine Justice and Order had no objections and was extremely supportive, which suggests that there should indeed be no problem.

Even though Themis became Zeus's wife, everyone still absolutely trusted the divine authority of God.

However, Zeus didn't really have any bad intentions, because he simply didn't need to.

No matter how ingenious the structure of a system is, its final operation still requires the control of the most core 'will'.

In this system, the most important aspects—system operation, information storage, and even the ultimate control authority—are all firmly in the hands of Him and His closest goddesses. He is not afraid of anything happening (see Chapter 131 for details).

Furthermore, as the supreme god-king who rules over all things, His supreme authority is perfectly suited to this system.

He is naturally the sole and absolute master of this system.

Only after this system was fully completed could He be considered a true god-king who controlled everything.

When this system is fully perfected in the future, and all the endless laws are incorporated into it, until it is all-encompassing and perfect, that will be the moment when He achieves "omniscience and omnipotence".

Zeus surveyed the gods and said majestically, "Gods, do you have any objections to these two plans?"

Oceanus immediately stood up and said in an extremely loud voice, "Your Majesty the King of Gods is far-sighted and insightful. Only Your Majesty the King of Gods, who possesses all wisdom, could have come up with such a brilliant idea!"

"This is a magnificent event that is entirely beneficial to all gods and all living beings in the universe! Our Oceanic pantheon has no objection to His Majesty the God-King's grand plan!"

"The ocean will absolutely support all of His Majesty the God-King's decisions! And will absolutely and resolutely defend His Majesty the God-King's sacred and just order! The sacred duties that His Majesty has planned for the ocean, we, the gods of the ocean, will faithfully fulfill!"

Upon hearing this, the other gods also rose to their feet in agreement.

Even Gaia, the Mother Goddess of All Things, who did not have a specific location in this new system, had no objections whatsoever.

Anyway, her authority doesn't care about this.

As the material foundation of the universe, she becomes stronger as the universe grows stronger.

Furthermore, she herself is eternally intertwined with the entire universe.

Zeus invited her purely out of respect for this mother goddess of all things, to give her enough face.
