Greece: I am Zeus!

Chapter 211 Silly child, why are you so disappointing?

She was unwilling and dared not think about it, but because of this, she had an unprecedented sense of crisis.

If you never had it, it doesn't matter if you lose it.

However, now that I have everything I've always dreamed of, I can no longer accept losing it.

Even the mighty Goddess of the Night is no exception.

She was already drowning in love and could not imagine how terrible and unbearable life would be without Zeus by her side.

Even the greedy night desires more, more, and the most love from the God-King.

Besides, both Mnemosyne and Themis married Zeus, so what is my little matter?
After thinking it over and over again, the Goddess of the Night's expression changed several times before she finally decided—to go all out!
My beloved God-King, His love is the most important thing! Without a doubt!

If the young girls of Olympus could vie for the love of the king of the gods, then so could the goddesses of the night goddess lineage!

The goddess of the night kept comforting herself, trying to accept what she originally could not accept at all.

She took a deep breath before finally speaking slowly to her daughter, "Hemora, my treasure."

“Back then, that wretched Uranus forcibly and ruthlessly took you from my side, causing me to suffer the pain of having my divinity torn apart, and fundamentally altering your very essence.”

"But now it seems that this may not be a bad thing."

“Hmm,” the Lady of the Night said slowly, after struggling to organize her thoughts. “After all, your origin is already the child of Hyperion and Theia. If, if, you fall in love with Zeus, it’s not a big deal.”

"You're not my biological daughter anymore, are you?"

Hemera understood the meaning behind the Night Goddess's words, which were clearly an attempt to save face and provide a reason for herself.

Her heart was instantly filled with immense joy, and she even forgot how to speak.

The Lady of Night continued, "And being on Olympus allows you to be closer to Zeus, which is also a good thing."

"There are just too many minor goddesses in Olympus, and I am ultimately residing in the underworld. Zeus, on the other hand, spends most of his time in Olympus."

"With you watching over Him, watching over the situation in Olympus, so that Zeus knows at all times that the goddess of night is always waiting for Him, always by His side, this is also a good thing for us."

Upon hearing this, Hermella could no longer contain her emotions and threw herself into the arms of the goddess of night, embracing her former mother goddess tightly.

Tears of joy streamed down her cheeks as she said, overwhelmed with emotion, "My dearest Mother Goddess, thank you for your forgiveness, thank you for your blessings. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry."

The goddess of night sighed softly to herself. She gently stroked Hemera's pure white hair, which shone with a soft glow, and smiled slightly, "Silly child, why are you thanking me and apologizing?"

"Of course, Mother Goddess wants to give you everything that is best in this world. Even if it is love, she does it willingly."

"Anyway," the Goddess of Night frowned slightly, then snorted softly, "there are just too many goddesses sharing with that Greedy God King!"

"It's better for us to win this love ourselves than to hand it over to those other little goddesses."

Hermella clung tightly to the goddess of night, her heart filled with affection and longing.

The goddess of night spoke earnestly to her beloved child, Hermera: "My darling, you must know that there are far too many goddesses eyeing Zeus."

As she spoke, the goddess of night slowly raised her head and looked toward Olympus.

The brilliant and dazzling moonlight now enveloped the entire Mount Olympus.

The light of that bright moon almost overshadowed the sun!
During this time, whether it is day or night, the whole world is radiant and bright.

Her expression turned serious, and she continued, "So, Hermera, you should hurry up and take action too."

Hermella's cheeks flushed slightly, a hint of shyness mixed with a deep-seated timidity.

She lowered her eyes slightly, not daring to look directly at the Mother Goddess, and timidly said in an almost whispered voice, "Mother Goddess... I... I dare not."

“I have far too little interaction with His Majesty the God-King on ordinary days.” As she said this, a deep sense of melancholy appeared in the bright eyes of the Goddess of Day.

Seeing this, the Lady of the Night glared at her with a look of exasperation.

But in my heart, I felt even more heartache and guilt.

Aether and Hemera, this poor brother and sister, have been unable to control their own destiny since the time of Uranus, and can only drift with the tide like rootless duckweed.

It was precisely these long and helpless years that shaped their current cautious and timid nature. And this is no wonder they are so easily fooled.

Nyx composed himself, gently embraced his beloved treasure, and comforted her in an incredibly gentle voice: "Silly child, you must remember that you are one of the fundamental laws of the universe, you are the eternal embodiment of 'daylight'."

"Your status, in the entire universe, is undoubtedly great. Even compared to me, although your power is not as great, your status is in no way inferior."

"You are the day, and Zeus is the sky. You two are a match made in heaven!"

"And look for yourself, my most dazzling treasure, how bright and radiant you are!"

"How could any god in this world not love you? Especially that one, the greedy god-king we all know."

“Silly child, you don’t understand Zeus, but the Mother Goddess does. She loves a goddess as radiant and beautiful as you the most.”

The goddess of night tirelessly encouraged her timid child, gently embracing Hemera and softly saying, "The mother goddess and He have discussed you and your brother in private. Zeus has always had a fondness for you. Whenever he speaks of you, he is full of praise."

Hearing this, Hermella immediately perked up.

She suddenly raised her head and gazed at her mother goddess, her beautiful eyes sparkling with wonder.

Seeing this, the goddess of night smiled and said, "Silly child, although Zeus is sometimes too majestic and domineering, he is also a gentle and passionate great god-king. That is beyond doubt."

"If you are willing, He will definitely be deeply attracted to you and will definitely fall deeply in love with you."

“My beloved treasure, you must not be afraid. When it’s time to act bravely, you must act bravely. You must know that our God-King is not some reserved deity who dislikes beauty.”

At this point, a disdainful smile curled at the corners of the Lady of the Night's dark red lips.

She stretched out her slender finger and pointed lightly towards the sky, saying in an extremely disdainful tone, "Look, isn't that a perfect example?"

"The gods all say that Selene is so aloof and proud, indifferent and distant, never showing any emotion even to her own family. Have you ever heard of anyone she is close to?"

"When did you ever see her getting close to Zeus? But look at her now."

"Hmph! Zeus had barely left me when she pounced on him! And Zeus..."

"Zeus! Him! Alas! This god has never been able to control himself!"

"Now that Selene is practically your sister, what are you afraid of? Since she dared to do this and succeeded, why don't you take the initiative and succeed as well?"

"You must know that you are a more magnificent eternal day than her radiant light!"

The Lady of the Night tried to persuade Hermella for a long time with great effort, but the mention of Selene at the end completely extinguished the little bit of confidence that Hermella had just gained.

Although Selene was always proud and aloof, she was undoubtedly the most beloved child of Hyperion, the Lord of the celestial bodies, and Theia, the Mother of Light.

Even during the time of Cronus, the three goddesses, Selene and her siblings, were not granted any honors by Cronus, but Selene continued to do as she pleased, and even Cronus turned a blind eye to it.

Hemera, who had become the nominal child of Hyperion and Theia, saw this all too clearly.

Selene's aloofness, her detachment from worldly affairs, her indifference to everyone, and her free-spirited attitude were things that Hermella had always deeply admired.

Because she had never had such a carefree attitude before.

She never had that confidence.

Hemera lowered her head deeply once more, and said in an extremely timid voice, "Mother Goddess, I...I still dare not."

After all that talk, the woman in the night was still getting the same response, and she immediately felt a little dizzy.

Thinking back to myself, I too have been suppressed by the Celestial System for so long.

It could even be said that the pressure from the Celestial System must be withstood regardless of whether one can withstand it or not.

Even when oppressed in various ways, he remained indomitable, fighting on despite repeated defeats, and never truly surrendered (surrendering to Zeus doesn't count)!
Having identified Zeus, they launched their most ferocious attack without hesitation, and achieved a resounding success!

Why is it that when it comes to her own child, she doesn't even have this much courage?

If I hadn't been there to protect her, even if she had truly become Zeus's goddess, she would probably have been bullied to death by those little devils of the Celestials!
