"They found me."

Diana stared at the coffee cup in front of her, a little distracted.

Until Clark woke her up.

"Who? Diana? ”

"Who found you?"

Diana came back to her senses and looked up.

"Olympus, those Protoss, Clark." She said, "All the gods." ”

A few days ago.

Diana was working on an old Greek-style artwork at the time of the incident. A burst of blue light suddenly appeared in her studio, and a figure suddenly appeared.

"Hermes?"

Diana turned her head and was surprised to find that the messenger of the gods of the twelve main gods, Hermes, who was in charge of running errands and delivering messages, appeared in her room.

"You're looking for me?"

"I'm afraid so, Wonder Woman." Hermes said, "But not me, but the gods." Olympus is convening a council of the gods, and it has been a long time since the last council of this specification was held.

They're about to talk about something very important."

"What does that have to do with me?" Diana frowned, "I'm not a god. If you were to say that I am the heir of Zeus? Forget it. If you bring all the descendants of Zeus on this planet, Mount Olympus will not be able to fit it. ”

"Admittedly, but it was the decision of the gods. They decided that you were different from the other children, let's go quickly, and we'll talk about it when we have something to say. ”

After saying that, without giving Diana a chance to refuse, he reached out and grabbed Diana's wrist. The next moment the light flickered, the world swirled, and when she came back to her senses, she had already come to Olympus, among the gods.

The main gods are surrounded by a suspended platform, with a vast starry sky overhead. The magnificent throne towered at the top of the staircase, but it was empty.

That represents the throne of the god-king.

Diana looked around, and there were quite a few familiar faces. Her old friend Hephaestus was here, and so were Hera and Apollo. It's just that Apollo's gaze is a little evasive, and he doesn't seem to want to make eye contact with her. Hera still had hostility in her eyes, but not so intensely.

Diana wondered.

"What do you want?"

"Nothing, princess."

It was Poseidon who spoke. But his image looks like a fat aquatic animal, with a blue skin covered in scales, tentacles on his shoulders, and a trident in his hands.

No one is even sure if this is Poseidon himself.

"We've just had some debates, and that's what you know, the only thing that everybody is concerned about at the moment at Olympus."

Wonder Woman followed everyone's gaze and looked up, her gaze falling on the highest throne.

"Nope." Diana's pupils shrank, "This can't be, you won't"

"Want me to say? Of course, I think it's. Poseidon snorted, "Actually, my brother Hades thinks so too." The position of God-King could only be between the two of us, but apparently the other gods didn't think so.

Especially Ares, who mentioned your name, and I have to say that we were all surprised to consider the holiday between you. ”

A rickety old man next to him laughed. It was also one of Diana's most familiar gods, Ares, the god of war. It's just that this one has more conflicts with her than friendship.

"You nominated me? Why? Diana asked.

"Personally, I'm not interested in the God-King, for the reason I told you before, and my mind hasn't changed now. Only war is eternal. "And again, I don't think the ascension of Zeus's two ambitious brothers to the throne will be a good thing for Olympus. I'm sure other gods think the same way. ”

The other gods were silent, but their expressions spoke for themselves.

"Just before you came, we called for a vote." Poseidon said indifferently, "I still don't agree with this result, but there are indeed more gods who choose you." ”

"Why?" Diana was surprised, "But I'm not even one."

"God? Doesn't matter. Zeus's position is eligible for inheritance to anyone who has his bloodline. "I know you, little one. Even though you have repeatedly stopped me, even though you may have misunderstood the war and felt that I was on your side.

But let's be honest, I like you, little one. We don't need someone who is ambitious and always wants more god-kings, or someone who might make any changes to other people's godhood and authority, the existing structure.

And neither Poseidon nor Hades nor even Apollo can guarantee this. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Apollo next to him. And the latter seemed to have been trying to reduce his sense of presence throughout the whole process, and as soon as he heard that he was mentioned, he immediately shook his head again and again: "I'm not, I don't, I'm not interested in that position, don't talk nonsense."

No one knows what happened to him during this time, but he is almost like the ambitious sun god before.

Maybe I was beaten by society

"So you all chose me?" Diana said, "That's ridiculous. ”

"Anyway, that's already your place." Ares said, "Go ahead, take your seat." ”

Diana shook her head, "No." Whatever the reason for your choice, thank you. But I don't think that's where I am. ”

"Okay, if you don't want to sit still, just stand, it's the same." Ares smiled, "Anyway, that position is already yours." ”

"Wow."

Carla said she was surprised.

"So. That's it? Are you the queen of the gods now? It feels weird to say that, but it also feels cool. ”

"It's not that simple." Diana shook her head, "The god is not. It's not just power, it's responsibility. Not only does it bring power, but it also changes the person in that position. ”

"You're worried that you're being changed by this position." Clark understood, "But you turned them down, didn't you?" ”

"That's the problem, Clark. I'm not sure if there's an option to say no in this matter. Diana said, "Like Ares said, that seat is already mine, even though I didn't go to sit on it." But who knows?

It's only been a few days, and I'm starting to feel a little weird. Sometimes I feel distraught, and sometimes I find myself thinking differently.

I began to become apathetic, my emotions no longer fluctuated, as if nothing could intrigue me, or even stir up waves in my heart"

Shen You handed over a Song of Ice and Fire: "Get a copy?" ”

"Yes." Diana's eyes lit up, conditioned reflex.

Shen You smiled.

"Look, isn't there still something I wanted."

Diana was stunned, thought about it, and felt that it seemed to make sense.

Maybe only ice cream is special to her?

"You're just anxious about the change because you don't know what to expect once you accept it, and that's normal. Maybe the god seat will bring about a change, but in the end it is the person who sits on it that decides it. ”

Shen You patted her on the shoulder.

"And all of us here know what kind of person you are. So, just be good for Diana Prince. Maybe that's a good thing, you can make Olympus a serious and valuable place for the first time in thousands of years. ”

He is also well-founded. Diana is Diana after all, one of the Big Three. In the original work, she killed Ares to take over the god of war, and although she was also affected by the god position at first, she finally stuck to her heart.

If she can't do it, no one else can.

"Thank you, in fact, I've thought about it in the past two days. Maybe you're right. Diana smiled.

"But before that, there's a problem." Shen You groaned, "The gods of Olympus, especially Apollo, Poseidon, and Hades, will they be so willing to give up this position to you?" ”

The position of the god-king is not just a nice thing to say, it is the position of the true lord of the gods. In the comics, Apollo, who briefly ascended to this throne, even had the power to take Hera's throne and demote her.

This position not only has the corresponding divine power and power like other gods, but also has the authority to take away the divine power of other gods at will.

In other words, if other gods want to defeat the god king and overthrow him, they cannot use the divine power of their own god position, but can only rely on the power brought by the innate bloodline to fight.

Of course, this is not to say that there is no chance of victory. After all, Apollo, who held the authority of the god-king in the comics, was hammered to death by a certain Zeus heir by brute force.

"I do think I still have doubts." Diana frowned, "Even though they explained the reason to me, I always felt that something was wrong."

At this moment the door opened, and an eccentric man of ugly appearance, tall stature, but with the proportions of a dwarf, walked in.

"Excuse me, is Miss Diana Prince here?"

"Hephaestus?" Diana got up, "Here." Is there something wrong? ”

"Sure enough, it's here."

Hephaestus stepped forward and looked mysteriously from side to side, as if to make sure no one was watching.

Then he lowered the volume and whispered.

"You have to be careful, Diana. The things of the God-King. There is another secret! ”
