Greek Mythology: Starting with Becoming the God of the Breeze
Chapter 168 The King's Current Offense
After knocking Baal down from the air, Yam did not rush to punish the fallen dog.
Although He is slightly stronger than Baal, in a real life-or-death battle, He would not be able to kill Baal in a short time.
Take that attack just now as an example.
However, after being hit, the opponent was merely knocked away and suffered almost no damage.
The only real loss was probably the embarrassment they suffered in front of Canas and Lu.
Moreover, His goal at this time is not to kill Baal. Even if He could kill him, given Yam's current strength and overall power, He is not yet able to completely dominate the Canaanite world.
At the very least, Baal, Anat, Mot, and others would pose a significant threat to His rule.
Until He is certain that these threats will be eliminated, the position of God-King will continue to be held by Baal.
After all, rebellion only requires removing Baal from the throne, but being the God-King involves many more considerations.
During the rebellion, He had only one enemy: Baal.
But after becoming the king of gods, the entire Canaanite world will become his enemy.
He himself ascended to the throne of God-King through rebellion, so others would naturally follow his methods.
Therefore, before He has absolute power, He still needs Baal to remain in the position of God-King.
"Barr, I'll give you some face in front of your daughter."
"Come, bless Kanas, and let this matter be over."
Yam descended slowly from the air, appearing quite relaxed, as if the struggle had not taken much of his strength.
In fact, Yam put in a lot of effort in the match just now.
But in order to show his strength in front of Kanas as much as possible, Yam could only suppress it and pretend to be relaxed and indifferent.
The fact is, He succeeded!
In His peripheral vision, Kanas did indeed notice a change in the way he looked at Baal and at Him.
This discovery made Him feel a surge of comfort.
"This fight wasn't for nothing; who knows, maybe I, Yam, might actually win the heart of my sweetheart?"
When he saw Kanas's gaze fall on him, Yam subconsciously puffed out his chest, trying to show off his strength as much as possible.
Barr noticed this as well, and he was furious.
This is His temple!
His daughter is staying here!
I knew Canas much earlier than I did!
On my turf, right in front of my daughter, she's flirting with her current boyfriend and future stepmother?
You dare!
As for bestowing blessings?
You can forget about it!
Even if Baal might not get Kanas, He would never do as Yam wishes.
Moreover, once Kanas becomes a goddess, Yam will probably lose interest in her.
When that time comes, who else can Kanas turn to besides himself?
How can a delicate goddess survive in this Canaanite world without any support?
And Hisbal was the greatest supporter of the entire Canaanite world!
He believed that Kanas was a smart man and would not do anything foolish.
The world of Canaan belongs to Hisbal.
There is nothing or no one He desires that He cannot obtain!
"Blessing? I cannot grant it. This is an influence of divinity and has not posed any danger to Kanas's life. My divine authority as a male guardian cannot affect Him."
Of course, although Baal's thoughts were quite dark, he still had to maintain his image as a great and righteous father in front of his daughter.
So His reasoning remained perfectly plausible: after all, He was the only male guardian deity in the entire Canaanite world, and only He could decide whether it would work or not.
If He says no, then no, and no one can change that.
"...Hmph, Baal, you're a disgusting guy."
Yam could naturally guess what Bar was thinking.
As Baal's brother and mortal enemy, He knew Baal better than the mist and dew, and even better than Anat.
What He hated most was Baal, who was full of lewd and immoral thoughts but pretended to be a virtuous gentleman on the surface.
Unlike Him, who simply grabs whatever He wants and takes action when He's uncomfortable, that's the best.
Lu, at this moment, finally understood her father's thoughts.
He looked at Baal in disbelief. He couldn't believe that his great and righteous father would have such disgusting thoughts about his current friend and the future partner he had chosen!
This is absolutely disgusting!!
The thought of Kanas, who had transformed into a goddess without Baal's help, appearing before her and Mist as her stepmother caused Ru's worldview to crumble.
Heartache, despair, despair, nausea—all sorts of negative emotions overwhelmed Lu.
The once warm and familiar God-King's Palace in His heart was now completely transformed, cold, unfamiliar, and filled with a nauseating odor.
Overwhelmed by negative emotions, Lu completely lost her mind. She shook off Kanas and, like a frightened animal, fled the God King's Palace, flying away into the distance.
"Lu? Where are you going? Wait for me!"
Upon seeing this, Kanas looked surprised and exclaimed.
As Lu's friend, it was natural for Him to chase after her.
More importantly, He didn't want to stay in this place any longer.
Although He was willing to make sacrifices for the great cause of the Chaos world.
But if these sacrifices can be avoided or delayed, that would be even better.
Watching Lu and Kanas walk away, neither Yam nor Bal chose to stop them.
For Baal, it was better that Lou and Kanas left, as this way he could at least salvage some of his image.
This is especially true for Yam.
He doesn't need any image, because unlike Baal, that hypocritical two-faced man, He simply is himself.
However, it would be best if Canas didn't hear about His next deal with Baal.
"Alright, we've had our fight, let's get down to business."
After the two left, Yam put away his weapon and was the first to express his willingness to cease fighting.
Seeing this, Baal also put away his hammer, but his expression remained gloomy as he stared intently at Yam.
"Serious business? What do you mean?"
"Let me make this clear from the start: I will not agree to either blessing Kanas or increasing the number of council seats for your gods. We can fight for another hundred or a thousand years if necessary."
