Chapter Twenty-Eight: Forced to Marry by Him

"She's pregnant...... She is expecting...... How could she possibly be pregnant—"

Olympus, in the majestic temple of Zeus, Zeus, the god of all gods, leans on a magnificently carved golden chair, one elbow near the corner table is supported on the table, and the other hand is constantly kneading the folded and protruding skin between the eyebrows, and his mouth is breathless and weak. Obviously, in the face of this sudden news, as a Titan, he also felt at a loss.

"In the human realm, I told her that living with the god of darkness must take steps to prevent future trouble......s! You won't listen to me—"

Suddenly, a thunderous roar burst out of Zeus's mouth, and at the same time, the treasure-encrusted flask on the square table had been picked up by him in a fit of rage and thrown out.

Hemis, Zeus's ambassador, stood aside and endured Zeus's madness. Many times he raised his head, opened his mouth slightly, and then slowly closed it, and the look of wanting to speak was undoubtedly full of endless worry and hesitation.

Yes, Kareta is pregnant. After thousands of years, time flies, and this first new life that will be born shortly after the awakening of the Titans should be the most deserving of the blessings of the gods. However, it backfired, and it was only because the father of this little life was the god of darkness, the god who was wiped out......

The "Great God ......" waited for Zeus's mood to stabilize before Hermis mustered up his courage, and while carefully observing his words and expressions, he said to him tentatively:

"Actually, it's just a girl......

"Girl?" Zeus quickly looked up at Hemis after hearing this, and asked with great concern, "Are you mistaken?"

Hemis nodded vigorously and replied solemnly:

"Trust me in my foresight ......"

"In that case......"

Zeus turned his gaze in a daze, as if he already had a plan in mind.

"Even if it's a girl, you can't take it lightly!"

At that moment, a loud shout came from behind Hermes. Immediately, blessed Hera to rush to Zeus's side with the momentum of an arrow from the string, and his mouth was full of words:

"Great God, you should know that the child that Carreta is carrying is both male and female, and it is the flesh and blood of the dark god Demos. Now that the Dark Race has been wiped out, for the sake of the comprehensive revival of our Titans, we must not allow the blood and bones of the alien race to remain in the world! Your little kindness today is likely to add to the calamity in the future!"

"It's just an unborn fetus, and her mother, Kareta, has sacrificed so much for the sake of the Protoss!

Hera's fierce words made Hermes unbearable, and he shouted at Zeus in a repulsive tone, and the elongated tail no longer concealed his extreme dissatisfaction with the blessed goddess. He didn't need her to explain, he knew what she wanted to do when she appeared at this time.

"Hermes, you're so bold—"

Hera was furious, and raised her hand to stop the ambassador in the next position, and a pair of beautiful eyes were full of fierce light, and she was close to Hermes.

Eating things inside and outside is really an eyesore-

Hera thought to herself.

Hermes didn't know what to say, and his expression turned into a mismatch as he met Hera's eyes.

It took a few seconds of silence for his rigid demeanor to dissolve.

"Great God, Queen of Heaven......" Hermes leaned over, bowed deeply to the two gods above, and then said in a sad tone:

"Now, except for this child, Karete ...... There's nothing left......"

"What do you mean, Hermes—"

Hera cut off the ambassador's words and roared angrily: "What do you mean that she has nothing? Your words are clearly implying that the great god is open to the remnants of the dark clan! Great god, the fetus that Kareta is pregnant with is clearly a sinister species, we must make a decision as soon as possible, lest we have too many dreams at night!!"

Hera rebuked Hermes menacingly, then shook her head and chattered at Zeus.

She was afraid that Zeus's resolute attitude towards the elimination of the Dark Clan would be reversed by the foresight of the ambassador Hermes. She even began to worry that the reason for Zeus's change of attitude was not Hermis's prediction, but the pregnant woman...... It's Karete!

"Great God?...... Great God!"

When Hera saw Zeus leaning back in his chair and not speaking for a long time, Hera couldn't help but urge him, and his tone became more and more unrefusal.

She wished to hear her husband's decision at once, and put to death the little life in Carette's womb by extraordinary means. Of course, the best outcome would be to execute Kareta together—

"Alright! Shut up—"

A clear whistle slashed through the air, instantly putting an end to the endless dispute.

Zeus's mind was already confused by Hermes's quarrel with Hera, and now Hera's aggressiveness finally led his nerves to the brink of collapse.

He covered his head with both hands, and his tense facial features revealed full pain and contradiction.

"Don't say it! Don't say it! My head hurts...... Let me think...... Let me think about it again......"

"I'm sorry...... Sorry ......"

Hera's acting skills are vivid, seeing this, she no longer forces each other, but changes her posture as a virtuous wife, rushes forward in front of Hermes to support Zeus, and asks with concern:

"You don't care, how about it? I'll help you go and rest for a while......"

Hera carefully picked up the decadent Zeus and slowly moved towards the apse. When he turned around, he swept Hemis a few times with the afterglow of his eyes, and the poisonous face made Hemis shudder......

——

Kareta slowly opened her eyes and staggered to her feet.

The pain in her head did not stop, and she rubbed her temples on both sides, turning her head to examine the scenery around her, and her mind kept trying to make memories.

"You drank too much at the ball, and I sent you back to your dormitory......"

A deep voice rang in her ears.

Carmod was standing beside the bed closest to Carret's bed, looking out at the night scene without looking back to explain.

Carreta unnaturally straightened the corners of her clothes, wanting to speak but not knowing what to say to him.

“...... Do you know anything about your physical condition?"

As if he had waited a few seconds and couldn't hear her, Cavmod continued to ask.

“...... Body...... ...... situation?" Kareta repeated intermittently, her tone full of doubt.

"You're pregnant! You don't even know it. ”

Kamod slumped back as he answered, facing her sitting in front of the bed with a serious expression.

"You say...... What ......" Carret's eyes widened in disbelief.

"You're pregnant! Less than a month later, Hermes the Ambassador's prediction is never wrong. ”

“......”

After a moment of silence, Kareta slowly lowered her head.

I'm pregnant?...... I'm pregnant! Is that true......

Kareta lowered her head, her eyes looking at her abdomen, the incredulous expression lingering on her face for only a moment before fading.

I was pregnant with Demos's baby...... I'm going to be a mother, and Demos is going to be a father...... Suppose he is still alive......

Excited in her heart, Kareta took out two warm palms and placed them in the place where the miracle was born, moving gently and carefully.

Thinking of the god of darkness who had recently passed away, the man who had devoted all his love to her, her beautiful and happy smile mixed with too much sadness, joy and pain, was indescribably complicated.

"What are you going to do in the future?"

Suddenly Cammode let out a cold question. Karete's sad and joyful expression was in his eyes, and he hated it in his heart. Before she could reply, he added like a knife:

"You know, this child's father is the god of darkness, the king of the dark clan who has just been exterminated, do you think the Holy Mountain will ignore you and let you give birth to her?"

"...... of Carmod"

Kareta glared at him, her eyes resentful and unwilling, and her two hands grabbed the hem of her skirt, trembling incessantly.

What he said is indeed not unreasonable-

"Marry me!"

He stared at her, his eyes shrinking into two tiny dots of greed, locking the woman on the bed firmly.

"Marry me, you can give birth to this child, and I will definitely guarantee the safety of your mother and daughter. ”

Feeling ashamed, Kareta sulked into her chest, opening her mouth and almost throwing it out.

"Kamod, please get out of here—"

She yelled at him angrily.

He smiled more proudly, and more coldly:

"It's okay, you still have time to consider my suggestion, but ...... I'm afraid you don't have much time left for that thing in your stomach. If I were Zeus, I'd probably be figuring out how to get rid of her for you!"

Raising his hand to dust off the shoulders of his crimson embroidered cloak, Kamod hummed and walked away, with the rebellious posture of a victor.

Kareta stared at him in a daze, angry but helpless.

——

As he walked out of Carette's chamber as he hurriedly met the moon goddess Artimis, who had arrived with four maids and some gifts, apparently to visit the master of the chamber.

Kamod hurriedly stopped, bowed slightly according to the number of Titans, and saluted the goddess who was superior to him.

"I'm coming to see Karete, I'm sure she's already drunk by now?"

Artemis smiled at Kamod and asked him unhurriedly.

"Yes Goddess, I just spoke to her. The goddess Athena still has something to do, so I don't dare to delay it now, and I want to rush back to her. ”

"Okay, you go get busy. ”

Watching Kamod pass by him and descend the stone steps, Artemis led the maids to the palace.

"Karet, are you alright, dear look at who I brought here!"

When he met with Carret, Artemis didn't bother to tell the maids to put down the gifts in their hands, but pulled a tall maid behind him to Karette.

"You're here...... Hey, that's ......."

Kareta had already gotten out of bed with the news of the arrival of the moon god, and she looked at the girl standing in front of her in front of her, dressed as a servant but with a superior figure, and her unfamiliar expression finally became familiar.

"You are Pasiu?...... No, it's you! But ...... Why ......"

Kareta screamed at him, and couldn't help but laugh.

"Karete!"

The "girl" in front of her opened her mouth and spewed out a deep and elegant male voice, then took off her headdress and wig in front of her eyes, and wiped the fat powder off her face. But in this way, his appearance is even more comical.

Artemis, the god of the moon, came up at this moment and explained to Carette with a smile:

"Bai Xiu heard the news that you were pregnant at the ball, and I was in a hurry to come over to see you, so I thought of such a trick. Just met your brother Kamod outside the door, and he really didn't notice it......"

"I'm worried about you, but I'm not allowed to leave the dormitory without permission, but fortunately, the moon god helped me put on makeup and pretended to be her palace maid, so that I could hide my eyes. ”

"Bai Xiu, for my sake, it's hard for you......" Kareta was very moved.
