Chapter 54: The Mark of Immortality
Holy Mountain Olympus, the wedding scene -
Carreta and Carmod continue to fight each other.
Furious, Thermod vowed to take Jose's life on the spot in revenge for taking his wife and humiliating hatred. However, Carette insisted on protecting Jose, so the couple each grabbed their weapons and fought each other more and more fiercely.
Before the eyes of the gods, the pair of chaotic figures gradually turned into two white lines and jumped up from the ground, hanging straight into the air, sometimes penetrating and sometimes staggering under the bright sun, and the sound of weapons crashing was incessant, stinging the eardrums of the gods.
Countless sparks of sparkling and colourful sparks scattered across the clear sky, and the constant impact of shockwaves finally made the gods realize that the battle between the newcomers was not a joke.
"God, are the two of them okay!? Isn't it their wedding day today, it's really a fight!"
"This third party is really brave, dare to jump out and fight with the gods for women......"
"Kill that ignorant human being, and don't let his filthy body set foot on God's territory!"
At the viewing seat, a slightly lower-ranking Mizusawa fairy stood up from her seat and stretched out her hand angrily to point at Jose:
"Sinful soul! he deserves to be punished severely—"
At the prompting of her shout, the guards who had just been staggered by the impact of the Carmod's swoop reacted, got up and grabbed their weapons and rushed towards José, only to be struck again by a strange force just as they were about to approach his body. Moan~ In the wail, they convulsed for a moment, and fell to the ground again, unable to move.
Looking at Jose again, his whole body has been protected by a semi-circular golden barrier from time to time, and he himself is unharmed within the golden light defense.
This protective barrier was quietly laid by Carette for Jose at the moment when she fought Thermod just in case.
On the altar, Zeus, the god of all gods, gradually eased from his stunned state, and his stiff and straight body collapsed, like a deflated balloon, without the slightest strength to stand.
Seeing the two gods in the air who were in a bitter struggle, a wave of anger rushed to the top of his head, and countless Venus stars burst out in front of him.
"Great God, Great God, what's wrong with you!"
The goddess of blessings had all her attention on Zeus's side, and when she saw his figure swaying, she felt bad and rushed up to support him.
"Great God—"
Hermes, the ambassador, jumped onto the altar in three steps and two steps, and also wanted to come to help, but was severely reprimanded by Hera:
"What are you doing, can't you keep the gate of your own house? Actually letting that hateful human enter the holy mountain is about to make the great god angry!"
"I ......"
Hermis was speechless, he didn't know anything about it, he had carried the black cauldron for no reason, but he couldn't clear his grievances, so he could only look at Hera with an aggrieved and resentful look.
Hera glanced at him darkly, secretly smug.
She wronged Hermes in public, just because she wanted the gods to preconceive that the ambassador who controlled the barrier of the Holy Mountain was not doing his duty to guard the portal. It won't be long before whoever makes the move, the human will die at the wedding, and the truth about the goddess of disputes, Alice, who brought him into Olympus, will never be discovered.
Zeus leaned against Hera's chest, watched the sky get more and more angry, and roared into the air with all his strength, and then waved his arms vigorously.
"Karete—"
The powerful source qi instantly swept through the sky, bouncing off a pair of newcomers who were fighting, making them no longer able to shelter in the air, and they fell back to the ground one after another.
"It's okay for you, Karetta!" said Jose to run to her first.
Kamod stood across from the two with a knife, his handsome face full of confusion and pain.
"You don't love me at all...... However, I still think about you all the time...... Want to be with you......"
"That selfish feeling of yours is not love ...... at all"
Kareta looked at Karmad with a blank expression.
"You call me selfish......?
Kamod sneered sadly, and shouted at her angrily, "What about you!
“...... Yes, I'm selfish...... I am not only selfish, but also humble and cowardly, and once wanted to escape, but even more for the sake of preservation, I thought of using you, taking advantage of your marriage...... I'm sorry, Kamod, I think about it, I don't love you! I can't marry you!"
“...... And you love him, don't you!?"
Rejected in public, Thermod's handsome face turned red, he raised his hand and pointed at Jose with a blade, and asked Carreta unwillingly.
Carette looked at Jose calmly and did not answer.
She was sure that her feelings for Jose were no longer love, the kind of warm and sweet feelings that were long but distant, like a trickle, or a ray of soft sunshine, were the affection that transcended love—
Kamod was speechless, and suddenly he looked up to the sky and laughed, his laughter desolate. With a sharp drop of his hand, he slammed the knife into the ground, and his figure disappeared.
On the viewing platform, Alice, the goddess of disputes, sat upright, her frozen eyes always watching what was happening, and her face hiding behind the golden mask made an ugly smirk.
As soon as it arrived, the domineering attack wave was like a silver-white lightning bolt, falling straight down from the top of the altar.
"Jose—"
Kareta screamed and blocked José's way as she quickly shot a wave of attack that violently resisted the sharp attack.
There was another boiling at the viewing table, and the gods could not understand or tolerate Kareta's actions. In their opinion, her actions were simply stupid and reckless.
The god who sent out this flash was none other than Zeus, the great god who had recovered his strength. He was completely enraged by the absurd and unruly farce just now, and he attacked directly, trying to pinch the human who made him extremely disgusting.
And Carette's sworn defense of Jose and her use of spells against him could not help but make Zeus even more angry.
"Fuck off, Karetta, this blasphemous man who has insulted you must not remain in the world!"
“...... Great God, please ...... Forgive him!"
Carette and Zeus engage in a difficult mana battle. She knew that he was only using three points of strength at the moment, but she had to give her all her strength back, and there was still a huge difference in strength.
After a short confrontation, she was already exhausted, and she saw that the wavelength of Zeus's shooting was getting closer and closer to hers.
Kareta hurriedly raised her other arm, and the two of them fought together, and said in Ai's mouth:
"Please, let him go...... I'll take care of it...... All the consequences!"
"No way! You've disappointed me! Why don't you get out of the way—"
Zeus jumped like thunder, and the sides of his head instantly swelled with uneven and rough cyan meridians. As he roared, his eyes glowed with a fierce white light, which had merged with the color of the attack wave, and he could no longer see the whites of his eyes and eyes.
Zeus gritted his teeth and exerted his strength again. In an instant, the silver-white attack broke through the resistance set by Carette and landed directly on Carette and José.
The gods let out a wolf-like exclamation.
Anyone can sense how fierce this attack is, and it can be said that Zeus burst out by gathering all the energy around him in his rage, and it can completely shatter the source of divine power of any god. For ordinary humans, the most direct consequence of that physical mortal fetus is an instant ash.
The protective screen once again played a role, and the golden light rushed to the top in an instant, blocking Zeus's strong attack with all his might. In the center of the barrier, Kareta and Jose both knelt on the ground, hugging each other tightly, ignoring the "quack" attack and shock outside the screen, just wanting to protect the peace of their square inch of world for a moment.
The gods were already holding their breath, their eyes wide and stunned at the incredible sight before them. Not to mention letting it go, even if they imagined it out of thin air, they didn't dare to think about it, and one day they would use their mana to fight against the great god Zeus.
"Carret...... You're crazy!"
Kamod shouted at Karete, who was still persisting in the protective screen:
"For the sake of humanity to fight against the great gods, you will never recover!"
Zeus was even more anxious, staring at the scene of Kareta and the human man hugging each other, and the expression of persistence and determination on his face suddenly felt a tearing pain in his heart, as if he was being cut by a sharp blade.
The goddess of blessings, Heramer, watched silently as Karet and Zeus as she spoke, her face silent as if there were no waves disturbing the lake, and she could not see too many changes in her expression.
At this time, she was extremely happy, and this situation was indeed what she wanted to see the most.
She knew her husband better than any god.
His anger, his irritability, all the negative emotions he showed at this moment were all due to his cherishing of him, his Karet.
Whether she is the emotional sustenance of the goddess of the sea, or treats her as an independent treasure, Zeus has always been a clear and secret protector, especially after she returned to Olympus from the side of the dark god, because of guilt, Zeus favored her even more. But one day, when he finds that his cherished treasure has a fatal flaw, and all his previous feelings are empty, his love for her will instantly turn into angry hatred!
Today's Zeus, because of this sick psychology, will not hesitate to destroy this defective product with his own hands!
Indeed, the opposite of love is hate, lingering, endless hatred for no reason-
Thinking of all the emotions he gave to Zeus, and finally incurring his betrayal again and again, Hera's heart also ached at this time. She loved Zeus, and his repeated deception and betrayal of marriage and affection eventually led to her hatred for him, and now this indelible hatred has been brought to this life with their rebirth......
"Human ...... Sinful human ...... How dare you blaspheme the gods—"
On the side of the altar, with the sound of a clear whistle, Zeus's attack wave became stronger, and the silver-white thin eyes evolved into thick scallops, and smashed heavily and forcefully into the protective screen, like a heavy hammer smashing into a fragile glass.
"Ahh
At the time when Kareta let out a heart-rending cry, the protective screen had already shown countless cracks, and then "bang" cracked, and countless golden shards burst in all directions, and were immediately engulfed by silver-white light......
They're finished—
The gods at the table all thought the same thing, and many of them screamed, and some even covered their eyes.
However, the vision of the gods, who were still stunned, was brightened by a glimmer of green light.
They were amazed to see that at the moment when Karetta's protective barrier was breached, a single-wing-shaped protective screen suddenly appeared behind Karete's back, undertaking Zeus's deadly attack, protecting the two of them at the most critical moment.
The magical wing-shaped protective screen was all green, refracting a strange light like phosphorus fire from hell.
What's even more amazing is that the attack wave shot from Zeus's palm turned into a soft mist the moment it touched the wing screen, and it spread out to the left and right, becoming no longer lethal.
The reversal of momentum once again shocked the audience, and the gods, including Zeus, showed extremely unbelievable expressions.
"Jose...... Jose ......"
As soon as the danger passed, Carette held José's head in both hands and looked left and right with a worried expression. It was at this time that she saw a glowing mark on Jose's forehead, shaped like a small wing.
What a stroke of genius!
Carette was amazed, she clearly remembered that when she first saw Jose, there was no such strange thing on his forehead.
"What is this ......?"
Carreta gently stroked the strange sigil with a glowing green sheen with her fingertips.
Could it be that this is ......!
Croto, the goddess of fate, was stunned and half-opened, and suddenly stood up from the chair where she was watching.
She recognized this unique mark. Since ancient times, the wings have been the symbol of the King of Hell, and they are the favorite motif of Hades. One wing is the best portrayal of his uniqueness and standout.
Zeus looked at the single wing on Jose's forehead that was constantly emitting demonic light, gasped, and said to himself:
"Mark of Immortality...... ...... this human actually bears Hades' 'immortal mark' on his head?"
