Greece: I am Zeus!

Chapter 201 Selenehemera

All that happened in the netherworld was destined to be known by the many great gods of the universe.

After all, the movement of the universe toward perfection is simply too significant.

The birth of two new goddesses who wield the supreme laws of the universe brings heartfelt joy to all the virtuous and righteous deities.

The arrival of "karma" and "random change" brought the gods a signal that could not be clearer than that of their great divine king.

The great God-King does not include everything in a predetermined plan; the generous and compassionate God-King is willing to grant all beings all possibilities.

Spiritual freedom, the randomness of fate, the just order, the restraint of authority, and the correction of all “excessive” behavior.

This is the supreme blessing of the God-King!
This is the God-King's deepest and most boundless love for all living beings in the universe!
Zeus, the king of the gods, will never become a tyrannical and obsessive ruler like Uranus; nor will he be a cruel and unjust ruler of destruction like Cronus.

Zeus, the king of the gods, will always be, and will always be, the most benevolent and great father god of all things and spirits!

Destiny is freedom!
All that happened in this netherworld also had an additional, intense impact on the two goddesses.

When Atlon was taken into the underworld by Zeus to serve as the moon, the radiant and serene goddess Selene, the lord of radiance, instantly felt that her innate authority of pure radiance had inexplicably extended into the underworld, a realm she had never set foot in before!
She was still unaware of what had happened, but this sudden and enormous expansion of her power still brought a rare and heartfelt joy to her, who was usually aloof and cold.

Having nothing else to do, she didn't hesitate at all. This goddess, who rarely showed great enthusiasm for anything, immediately set off with great interest.

She happily headed to the Underworld, eager to familiarize herself with the authority she had recently acquired over this vast realm.

However, she was too happy too soon.

Halfway there, she casually sent a divine message to Themis, the goddess of order, asking what had happened in the underworld.

However, she was shocked to find that the new power she had just gained, which was almost comparable to her original authority, had vanished into thin air!

This new power, which should have been within the sphere of her authority, vanished without a trace in an instant.

Because in the underworld, Zeus soon bestowed upon Hecate the honor of being the moon.

The moon's cool smile froze on the beautiful, aloof face of the Lord of Clear Radiance.

Her once light and quick steps came to an abrupt halt in mid-air.

At this moment, even the howling winds from the sky seemed so cold and biting.

She then received a reply from Themis, who succinctly explained everything to Selene.

After understanding the whole story, the Lord of Qinghui immediately crushed the ice silk flower formed from moonlight that he had been unconsciously playing with in his hand into dust!
If you never had it, you won't regret it.

But just now, just now, she truly received it!

She could even clearly sense that vast authority, almost as powerful as her own!
That was enough for her to enjoy the eternal radiance of the entire Netherworld!
However, before she could even fully appreciate this immense power, it... it was gone!

A sense of loss instantly enveloped Lord Qinghui, along with an indescribable feeling of grievance.

God King, God King!
You have so many beautiful and noble goddesses in Olympus, how could you let that shameless goddess of the night bewitch your mind!

How could the authority of our gods be so easily given to the god of night?

This ethereal and otherworldly embodiment of the cold moon stood there for a long time before finally turning away and silently returning to its temple.

However, when she arrived at her own palace, she stopped once again.

The moon, in her ethereal and aloof form, was filled with contemplation, and a resolute determination, unlike anything she had ever seen before, flashed in her eyes.

She suddenly turned around and flew straight towards the supreme temple of the God King!
This matter cannot be settled with His Majesty today!

Another goddess who was even more impacted by this event was Hemera, the goddess of day who was the daughter of night but also symbolized eternal and endless light.

She wasn't affected by the appearance of Mingyue.

Her condition is more serious.

She was because her mother goddess, the night, had completely merged into the material universe; because the origin of the night had engaged in the most primal and profound entanglement and union with the ruler of the sky!
As those supreme laws intertwined and permeated each other, she, as the embodiment of day who was both born from and restrained by night, and who depended on and coexisted with it, was naturally and inevitably subjected to the greatest, most direct, and most profound impact and influence!
Light and daylight arise from darkness and night.

They are inherently mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining, yet they share the same, inseparable essence.

Light corresponds to darkness, and daytime corresponds to nighttime.

However, in the past, the spiritual ruler, with his supreme authority, forcibly separated the source of light and day from the system of night and transferred it to the material pantheon, making them the children of Hyperion, the lord of the heavens. Since then, all light and day have arisen from the radiance of the stars.

This remained unchanged until the time of Cronus and even the time of Zeus.

Faced with the powerful Celestials, even Nyx could only swallow his anger, let alone Aether and Hemera, who could only accept the unchangeable reality.

However, although the root cause was forcibly changed, the fundamental law of existence, its core essence, can never be altered.

Before Zeus and Nyx united, matter and antimatter, as well as dark matter and dark energy, were clearly distinct in the universe, with a fundamental and enormous gap between them.

Only now have these four fundamental components finally achieved perfect harmony for the first time in a truly thorough manner.

Ether is alright.

His luminous authority, though severely damaged, was completely subjugated to Helios, the lord of the radiant stars.

However, Zeus also generously granted Him the authority of the pure atmosphere of the high heavens and the ether. In the fusion of Zeus and the night, He was not greatly affected, since His essence was, after all, the opposite of darkness.

However, as the embodiment of the inseparable opposition and transformation with the night, the goddess Hemera, who is the day, is most profoundly combined with and influenced by the thunder ruler when her mother goddess's origin and essence of night is touched and corrupted.

She then experienced the same feeling as her true mother goddess, the deep night!

At this moment, she was completely powerless and slumped down in her pure white Temple of Light.

Her fragrant sweat had completely soaked through her gleaming white robes, and she was too weak to move even a finger.

Hemera gasped for breath, exhausted. In the days that had passed since the thunder struck the night, she had also been subjected to the power of thunder, and had even rolled from her high divine position onto the smooth, mirror-like white jade floor.

She clearly felt an unprecedented and deeper connection between herself and the entire universe.

I can clearly feel the increasingly solid and powerful authority of daylight.

And his own primordial divinity, which was now completely entangled with the great god-king he secretly admired!
For a moment, she truly didn't know whether she should cry or laugh.

Although an irrepressible smile of immense joy had already quietly appeared on her beautiful face, which was covered in fragrant sweat.

After entering the new era initiated by Zeus, Aether and Hemera, the two former Outer Gods, finally truly integrated into the new order of the universe and lived a peaceful and stable life.

No longer needing to worry about their own survival, the two gods finally had the mood to enjoy this increasingly beautiful universe.

In response to the call in the twelve sacred laws of the God-King to encourage the gods to unite and procreate, Aether also wanted to find a wife of his own.

He looked across the entire universe and found that only Selene, the Lord of Light and the incarnation of the Moon, and his sister Hemera, the incarnation of daylight, were the most suitable.

However, that Lord of Pure Radiance was truly aloof and unapproachable, too cold and indifferent, never showing any emotion to any deity.

She even resolutely rejected the advances of her closest brother, Helios, the radiant and luminous lord of the stars.

Ether, who was already used to being careful as a god, naturally didn't dare to make a fool of herself.

So He began to pursue His sister Hemera.

Hermera did not outright refuse, but she also did not accept.

The goddess of daylight was also constantly hesitating.

If it were still the old days, when the two siblings needed to huddle together for warmth and depend on each other for survival, Hemera might have reluctantly agreed.

But now, the entire universe is peaceful and everything is thriving, and Hermera simply cannot feel any attraction to her brother Aetel.

She had had enough of those days when she was a goddess, living in constant fear and trepidation.

She also longed to live in this universe with the same carefree and confident spirit as the other goddesses.

She knew very well that her brother, who also came from a poor background, was simply not capable of protecting her and providing her with a stable and secure life.

Having been severely punished by harsh reality, Ether had long since become cautious, humble, and low-key, and was not at all the type she liked.

Deep down, she harbored a small, unspoken longing for what she truly loved, a desire she dared not confide in the gods.
