Chapter 74: The Reversal of Life and Death

Outside, the true name of the new god has spread throughout the world, but inside the main hall, a tense action continues.

Rhea, the queen of the gods, held her newborn child in her arms and looked anxiously at the maid who had been waiting for a long time.

"Hurry, hurry, bring it!"

Pale with a pale, but with a hint of urgency, the Queen of God took the stone from the White Oak Goddess's hand.

She had thought about having a child outside of Mount Kinabalu, but Kronos apparently didn't give her that chance. But fortunately, given that it was in his own domain, the God King politely waited outside the main hall.

But when the Son of God was born, Rhea knew that he would be the first to walk in.

"Your Highness."

The goddess of the oak tree took out the stone that had been prepared in advance, and Rhea took it in her hand. She used her divine powers to change the shape of the stone to make it look similar to the baby in her arms.

But this alone is not enough, Rhea also needs to make it have 'life' and be tainted with the breath of a new god. So she closed her eyes and slashed the baby's chest in her hand.

The newborn god howled and cried, causing the thunder to rise and become more and more rapid, but Rhea did not care about the distress, she quickly dripped the blood from the baby's heart on the golden apple, and then covered him with a roll of gray cloth.

"Take him away," she said, "to the sea, the domain of my eldest brother Okeanos." โ€

"Except for the mother goddess who vacillates in his attitude, he is the only existence in the world today who is willing to fight against the god-king. You tell him that Kronos's quest for divine power will not end there, and that if he still wants to retain the power of the sea, if he wants to take more power from the new king, then this is the best chance. โ€

Seeing that the goddess of the white oak nodded in response, Rhea finally looked at the baby in her hand. She was a little reluctant, but handed him to her maid anyway.

She did not do this at the time of Poseidon's birth, because his priesthood was inherently associated with the sea. [Storm] [Tsunami] will make the ocean god repel him, [Earthquake] will make the mountain god and Mother Earth hate him, but Zeus is different.

He has a powerful priesthood, and there is a clash of clergy only with the god-king's helper, the god of weather, Cleos. Even if it is to leave a back hand, the Ocean God Department will definitely accept him.

"Let's go!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

Bending her knees slightly, the goddess of the white oak took the baby and left in a hurry.

Looking at the back of the other party leaving, Rhea did not stop the movements in his hand. The God-King had already stepped into the palace, and his undisguised footsteps had already been heard.

"Fate is on my side, and I will succeed."

With a silent reverse, Rhea blended the golden apple with the stone in front of him. The divine fruit blended into it, turning into the heart of the stone baby, and a powerful beating sound was heard.

The rock was burned by the sun but not broken, and it was washed by the power of the queen of gods day and night, and it had already produced divine power. When the golden apple containing the blood of Zeus becomes one with it, it exudes a divine aura as if it had life.

"Stombleโ€”"

The footsteps of the god-king approached, and Rhea didn't have time to think about it, she wrapped the swaddling clothes she had prepared in advance around the stone and covered it with a cloth. She held the 'baby' in her arms, then closed her eyes and waited for her fate to be pronounced.

"Treadโ€”"

The footsteps stopped in front of the bed.

Kronos looked at his wife in front of him. She held the baby in her arms and turned her back to her as if she were guarding against an enemy.

The God King was a little sad and a little regretful. As his own god, Rhea couldn't understand him after all. Little did she know that whenever Kronos saw his heir, the Father's final curse lingered in his ears.

"He's waiting for me, waiting in heaven. He was at the top, waiting for me to go to the bottom. โ€

Memories flashed through his mind, and the God-King shook his head slightly, as if he wanted to throw these things out of his mind. He wouldn't want to do it if he could, but who made fate so ruthless.

If he can overcome fate, the God-King swears that the laws of this world are his next object of revenge.

No one can control the fate of a king, not even the world itself.

"What is Molliades here for?"

Standing in front of the bed, the God-King asked.

On the sacred mountain, he could naturally feel the traces of the goddess of the white oak tree. The other party left in a hurry just now, and he was also a little curious about what she had done.

โ€œ.โ€

However, in the face of the God-King's inquiry, Rhea, who was lying on his side, did not say a word.

"Well, since you don't want to say it, let her go."

Shaking his head, Kronos knew that Rhea didn't want to pay attention to him now. But as long as the children are still here, he doesn't care what little tricks they are doing in private. If she could provoke one of her brothers to rebel against her, it would be just an excuse for him to do it.

The Queen remained silent, but Kronos wasn't going to wait any longer. He dragged the baby wrapped in Rhea's arms and swallowed it in one gulp.

"Boom โ€”โ€”!"

A huge thunderclap resounded through the heavens and the earth. The God-King sensed that something in the darkness flickered, as if to indicate something.

"Heh, maybe this child is really the one who is destined to do so, so that fate responds to it like this."

Sneered, yes or no, the God King didn't care anymore. He glanced at his wife again, then quietly exited the room.

He had to give the other party a moment to calm down, and he still took care of Rhea's emotions in addition to issues related to offspring.

Walking out of the main hall and looking at the back of the goddess of the white oak tree who had turned into a divine light, Kronos did nothing. The vigor in the womb seems to prove the vitality and strength of the new gods, and of course it may be the vitality that comes with the authority of the thunder, but that doesn't matter. After all, the other party has been swallowed by him, and there is no chance to turn over.

Slowly stepping forward, the god of weather was still waiting aside. His complexion was a little bad, after all, the birth of two true gods related to his priesthood in a row inevitably affected his authority somewhat.

Fortunately, both of these new gods are expanding the authority of the weather, not taking away the original parts. The only thing he really lost was the one that had to do with the Storm.

"Clios, when do you think I should do anything to my uncle who rules the mountains?"

Standing side by side with his brother, the God-King asked softly. But the god of meteorology didn't respond, because he knew that Kronos wasn't really asking him.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the God-King to answer the question himself.

"Just a thousand years, no, fifteen hundred years."

"Although my authority tells me that I will not have a new Divine Son born anytime soon, I will have to wait."

"By the way, I also want to see what kind of punishment fate will give me if I am so brutal against Him?"

As no one else made his decision, Kronos looked up at the sky.

The dark clouds had not yet dispersed, and thunder and lightning were intertwined in them. The vision of the law that arose because of the birth of God is slowly receding, but it will take a little time.

But Kronos didn't want to wait. If he wants to see the sun, then the sun must let him see it.

Holding the God-King's Scepter, the God-King is held high to the sky. The supreme divine power was connected to heaven and earth, directly tearing apart the laws that had not yet been completely calmed.

At this moment, with the sacred mountain as the midpoint, the whole world felt an extraordinary force erupt in the center of the earth, the sun was frightened off its tracks, and all spirits prostrated on the ground, worshipping the lord of heaven and earth.

The clouds cleared, bathed in sunlight, and the god-king scanned the surroundings.

Unlike before, this time, there was no longer any god who dared to peek into the sacred mountain.
