Having traversed countless realms, can you possibly be as clever as me?

As he passed the sun chariot, Helios glanced at him in surprise, but soon he flew to a higher place.

But just as Tsugumi was about to flee, he glanced down casually—

Then, his brows furrowed.

Because he saw that several fleets had been inadvertently caught in the countless whirlpools created by Charybdis.

Those people were probably Spartans, whose warriors prayed for the protection of Poseidon and Apollo, clinging tightly to the mast, or drawing their weapons to fight back against the waving tentacles.

Sadly, even if Apollo and Poseidon were watching this place, they would not offer their protection.

What did the lives and deaths of these Spartans have to do with me? Even so, but...

"I can do whatever I want!"

Tsurugi's gaze instantly sharpened. She muttered something and then spread her arms wide in the sky!

In an instant, seemingly endless light and heat surged into his body!

The cells belonging to Superman greedily absorbed these powers, making him as dazzling as the sun!

"I now believe he is indeed Helios's son... or so?"

Hermes, who was watching the battle from Mount Olympus, clicked his tongue slightly, but Poseidon was right in front of him.

"Go back, Charybdis!!!"

Realizing the danger, Poseidon's face turned grim, and he immediately gave orders, but it was too late!

The second sun in the sky set.

And it wasn't just fast; he seemed to have arrived at such a vast distance in an instant.

boom!!!

From afar, the Spartans kneeling on the deck, praying for divine protection, witnessed this scene.

They saw the crimson second sun set at the highest point in the sky.

It was a scene as dazzling and beautiful as an arrow or a meteor, more spectacular than anything they had ever seen.

Then, as if the sea had been turned upside down, a massive tsunami erupted, accompanied by the mournful cries of monsters the Spartans had never heard before.

They saw, right at the center of that endless whirlpool, a huge, grotesque monster, like a sea anemone, emerge from the sea.

Its body was mutilated, its cries and wails were countless, overlapping, and the teeth and mouthparts of countless shipwrecked people were smashed and burning.

In the sea, the monster's body continued its relentless, raging fire; its immortality brought only further curses. Charybdis shrieked, pleading in a language incomprehensible to mortals.

"Stop! Stop! I am sent by Poseidon, I am his son, his subordinate, you cannot—"

His response was a punch from Tsugumi, her face expressionless, as she gathered her strength.

The terrifying force of that punch even dragged the Spartan warships at sea forward at high speed, as if the surrounding air had been squeezed dry instantly, suffocating them and causing them to choke.

But they still opened their eyes, determined to see this legendary scene!

They saw it; the warrior in the red cloak was there, throwing that punch.

The next moment, the once invincible, legendary sea monster Charybdis, who had slaughtered countless people, was instantly reduced to a cloud of blood mist and vanished!

The gods are immortal, but that doesn't mean they are indestructible. They do not die, but they fall into a long slumber that is indistinguishable from death.

And now, Tsurugi sent Charybdis into an eternal slumber that was no different from death.

"Do not!!!!"

Poseidon's furious roar echoed across the ocean, accompanied by a surging storm. The boundless seawater coalesced into a colossal figure, the sea god wielding a trident, glaring angrily at Dongjiang.

740. Even in Greece, they could not escape the will of hegemony!

Who is Poseidon? The ambitious king of the sea!

Unlike Hades, who was honest but not very powerful, Poseidon, Zeus's brother, was always determined to drag Zeus down and become the king of the gods himself.

Therefore, Poseidon often plays the villainous role in Greek stories, serving as a foil to Zeus and Athena. Ironically, in modern times, Hades has become the villain in this role.

Perhaps it's because after humans mastered thunder and conquered the ocean, death was the only thing they couldn't conquer.

Therefore, for Poseidon, the loss of Charybdis was unacceptable.

Not only because it was an incredibly powerful sea monster, but also because—the existence of sea monsters was a crucial factor in Poseidon winning the faith of mortals!

It is precisely because sea monsters exist at sea and voyages are fraught with danger that humans hold the king of the ocean in awe, offering sacrifices and worship.

Poseidon's two most powerful sea monsters—the Gorgon Scylla—had already been turned into stone sculptures by Circe, and now, the whirlpool Charybdis had also fallen.

Poseidon suddenly found himself without the sea monster he used to intimidate mortals!

And upon closer reflection—Circe was actually a Colchis, so in that sense, he was tricked by the Colchis into losing two sea monsters.

How could anyone tolerate this? Poseidon, unable to contain himself any longer, unhesitatingly chose to unleash his divine power!

"Son of Titan, how dare you trample on my authority like this?!"

"I will punish you! Submit to me, become my servant, and atone for your sins!!!"

The endless seawater coalesced into a colossal phantom of Poseidon, who looked down upon the ant-like Thrush River, and spoke with anger yet also admiration.

What? You're saying that Charybdis first caused trouble for Tsurugi and then got killed?

Are you trying to reason with an Olympian god? Are you trying to reason with a god as unpredictable and capricious as the ocean?

Tsurugi was certainly not that naive, so he didn't want to explain anything.

Superman remained silent, simply accumulating power.

The very next second, while Poseidon was still incessantly cursing—

Eeya!!

Suddenly, the river emitted a powerful, freezing breath, freezing Poseidon's illusory sea into a block of ice the instant it maintained its posture of loudly cursing.

Then, in front of this extremely ugly ice sculpture, Tsurugi unhesitatingly threw a punch that shattered it instantly.

Next—of course, it's mud for Lu Dayou!!!

After a moment of stunned silence, Poseidon, far away on Olympus, watched as Tsurugi disappeared from sight in an instant, feeling disbelief and intense humiliation.

"How dare you look down on me like that? Son of Helios, I will devour you alive!!!"

Raging with rage, Poseidon raised his trident, and in an instant, the entire Greek sea seemed to come alive, boiling and churning wildly!

Endless tsunamis spread out from all directions at the same time, the earth trembled, the sea surged, and countless tsunamis attacked all the city-states of Greece at the same time!

But at that moment, Hera stopped Poseidon's madness.

"Enough, Poseidon, do you want to destroy the kingdoms of mortals?"

Hera stopped Poseidon's rage and madness, while the ferocious Sea God roared as he watched the lightning surge in the Queen of the Sea's hands.

"He must pay the price for provoking the Lord of the Seven Seas!"

"I don't care what you do to this Titan remnant!" Hera interrupted Poseidon, speaking coldly.

"But now, sit down and finish the journey on the Argo! Calm down, your revenge must come after this story is over! And you must not vent your anger on all mortals!"

Poseidon longed to pull out his trident and stab the face of this menopausal madwoman in front of him.

Jason? The Golden Fleece? Who the hell cares about this pretty boy? Who the hell cares about your boring game?

But he could not do that. Poseidon knew that even though Hera and Zeus were at odds, she still represented the authority of the king of the gods.

In order not to give his younger brother a chance to teach him a lesson, Poseidon could only suppress his anger and sit down again.

But this brings the problem to the forefront again.

Who could subdue such a hero? One who could kill Charybdis and defeat the Titan son who was the embodiment of Poseidon's divine power?

The first person the Queen of the Sea thought of was Hercules. The illegitimate son of Zeus, whom she despised, perished together with the son of the Titans. Wasn't that a double blessing?

However, the Argo is almost at Colkith, and it's likely that Karel will return to Colkith before them.

The Queen's eyes darted around, and Hera, who was used to using vicious methods to deal with her husband's mistress and illegitimate child, instantly came up with a wicked plan.

1020 >>

"Apollo!" The Queen of Heaven looked at the God of Light, who had remained silent from the beginning, and spoke in a commanding voice.

"I want you to deliver a divine message to the Colkis: that Karel is a blasphemer and must atone for his sins!"

"Meanwhile, Hermes, the reading forum, the place where dreams begin and where dreams come true. I want you to unleash the plague upon Colchis, so that they may suffer in agony. Have your priests tell them that the plague will never disappear if Calel remains in Colchis!"

Athena clenched her fist slightly upon hearing this—framing someone was indeed an extremely dirty tactic, yet it was something Hera was capable of doing.

With Zeus absent, her authority is limitless!

"And you, Athena." Hera's gaze fixed directly on the goddess of wisdom before her, and she said coldly.

"Don't go anywhere during this period until the Argo's adventure is over."

Hera had learned her lesson, or rather, she was serious this time and would not give the goddess of wisdom, who loved heroes, any chance to turn the tide.

"..." Athena remained silent, but she knew that at this moment, Tsurugi could probably only rely on himself.

......

For Tsurugi, Kolkis is the 'homeland' of his second life.

This not-so-large island was where he spent the most innocent and immature years of his life, and although he didn't really consider it his hometown, he did have some thoughts of giving it preferential treatment.

So he returned to his homeland.

He is going to begin the opening ceremony of his final performance in this life here.

His crimson cloak fluttered in the air as he descended. Under the sunlight, the tall, handsome god of the mortal realm, whose face was obscured, had returned.

He returned to the city-state where he had once helped countless people.

However, the return of the Son of the Sun did not bring glory and joy to Colchis; on the contrary, the people of Colchis were filled with rejection and fear of him.

"blasphemer!"

"Kingslayer!"
