Chapter 132: Nightmare

Night.

The destruction of the illusory world did not affect the real world, and the cold winter that had come because of Demeter continued.

Cold winds came from the north, and strife and killing abounded. In order to compete for limited food, the conflict between man and beast, and between man and man became more and more intense, and only such a deep night can restore a little peace of the past.

But this is just the world, and nothing has changed in Olympus. The gods do not have a day or night, and they do not lack food and clothing because of the cold winter. Therefore, on the sacred mountain at this time, the power of the gods shrouded in their respective shrines illuminates the night sky, just like the stars on the earth.

As in the past, the immortal gods enjoy what they have...... But on this night, the gods were destined to be at peace.

……

Boom Boom –

In the middle of the night, in the originally quiet night sky, a thunderclap suddenly exploded, alarming all living beings inside and outside the sacred mountain.

Heavy clouds gathered together, as if to signal the imminent fall of a heavy rain. However, the climate on Mount Olympus has never been created naturally, everything here is a reflection of the will of the gods. So for a while, one after another figures flew out from all over the sacred mountain.

Some were disheveled, some were thinking about some gadgets they had brought back from the world, and a few had been woken up from their sleep—but only a few.

Gods can sleep, but it's never a necessity, only a handful of gods do, and none of the powerful gods on Olympus tonight have spent their time on it.

This makes them react quickly, but it also misses a lot, because when the illusory world shatters, like Hades's dream, some invisible fluctuation spreads.

All illusory things naturally need an illusory carrier to bear, and sleep is the best carrier, and this obviously has nothing to do with the gods who are always awake...... Of course, this is not a big loss.

After all, they don't have a special identity and power like Zeus, nor do they have a special chance like some gods, and even if they can see anything in their dreams, it's probably only a short period of time.

They may not even know what is happening, only that everything is destroyed, everything is destroyed, and then nothing else.

Hmmm-

"What's going on, Hera, were you with Zeus before?"

A flash of red light flashed through Hestia's figure, and then appeared in midair. She looked at the dark clouds in the sky, and then at the palace at the top of the sacred mountain.

These days, the Goddess of the Stove Fire has not been in a very good mood. Hades snatched Demeter's daughter, but this was the compensation given by Zeus when the goddess once gave up the throne of the god-king.

Hestia was happy at the time, but he demanded only one condition that the slaughter between the brothers could be avoided. But what she didn't expect was that thousands of years later, this condition would actually be used here.

For a while, the goddess couldn't find a reason to stop the other party, after all, compared to Zeus's behavior, Hades was nothing at all. Coupled with the catastrophe caused by Demeter's wrath, she was even more troubled by the pity. If the root cause of the problem is not solved, then this will not end.

Therefore, under all kinds of contradictions, Hestia couldn't help but be a little bored. All of this is inseparable from Zeus, and now the other party not only does not make any efforts for this, but also has time to summon thunder and lightning in the middle of the night.

"I don't know, I haven't been with Zeus a lot lately, and he doesn't seem to want me to be with me."

Also hurried over, in the face of the eldest sister's inquiry, Hera said expressionlessly:

"You know what kind of person he is, and how could he want to keep me around as an eyesore while enjoying life?"

Speechless, this time, Hestia had even more headaches.

Except that for some unknown reason, Zeus seems to have had little interest in the god of beauty, and his pleasure has not stopped. It's just that those who didn't give birth to him are often not known.

The gods who rule over marriages have the most failed marriages...... Hestia shook her head slightly, casting a reassuring look at Hera. But opposite her, the queen didn't have much reaction.

After a long time, she got used to it, anyway, most of the gods are like this. As long as you don't pop up any bastards, and don't run to the mortal world to mingle with mortals, then Hera can only let it go.

As the two spoke, more gods appeared in mid-air, and they were all alarmed by the power of Zeus. However, the gods had no clue about the thunder that the god-king had suddenly summoned.

Soon, however, with the arrival of the god of the west wind, the gods stopped talking.

"It seems that Zeus asked you to inform us of the past?"

Looking at the comer, Hestian Adam asked.

"Yes, Your Majesty please."

Bowing slightly, Fellowos said respectfully.

Even if it is not what it used to be, in the face of the goddess of the stove fire, he still respects as usual.

……

At the same moment, on the throne in the center of the main hall on the top of the sacred mountain, Zeus frowned.

As soon as he woke up, after subconsciously releasing his power, he ordered Fellowos to summon the gods and prepare to explain what had just happened. But strictly speaking, he himself doesn't know exactly what happened.

“…… Omen, or something else? ”

"What are you talking about in those vague words?"

Although Zeus, like the gods, has always been 'awake', in fact, it is his true essence that is still sleeping in Asgard, and it has been only his incarnation that has been walking outside lately.

And the reason why the god-king deliberately avoided Hera recently was not for fun, after all, an avatar did not have such ability. It was really inevitable that someone would find out that the God King's body was missing, so he deliberately did not have contact with others for a long time. In this case, the body of the eternal sleep suddenly falls into a dream, as if the real scene is playing out in the sleep.

The big hand that covered the sky, Athena, who fought with him for some reason, and finally everything in the world turned into a book and was held in his hand, all of this seemed so real in the dream, that Zeus, who woke up, didn't even distinguish between reality and illusion at the first time, and subconsciously attracted his own power.

Mount Olympus is okay, but at this moment, Asgardner is probably already in a mess.

"A prophetic dream, or something else?"

"And Athena will do it to me...... Why is that? ”

His brows tightened, and Zeus was a little puzzled. He asked himself, even if this was a sign of the future of the god-king, why did Athena make enemies of him?

If it's because of Metis or something, it's really unlikely. In any case, the two generations of Goddess of Wisdom have never even met, and the only connection between them is the bloodline - but they are also the other half of the bloodline.

With the blood ties canceling each other out, she didn't seem to have done anything worthy of her hatred...... So thinking of this, the God King couldn't help but give birth to a guess.

Perhaps the Athena in that dream was influenced by the outside. Because the moment that dream ended, a memory of the past also surfaced and was reflected in Zeus's mind.

It was on the day of the acquisition ceremony, and he vaguely saw another self. Powerful, invincible, surrounded by gods, the center of the world. That self is Zeus's ideal perfection. He seemed to be saying something, and Zeus didn't hear it at the time, but after hundreds of years, it became so clear.

"Be careful...... Lord, He is an outsider! ”

The voice was urgent, with a bit of trepidation and despair. For a moment, the emotions in that tone seemed to be transmitted to Zeus's heart.

Do you feel scared if you are so strong? For a while, the confidence originally brought by the surge in strength was suppressed a little again. And Athena's matter has become acceptable.

It is difficult to understand that Athena is an enemy of him, but it is even more difficult to understand that the world will be destroyed, so the reason for the former is likely to be the potential influence of the latter.

"But...... What does this 'lord of **' refer to, and what does 'outsider' mean? ”

"Lord of Darkness? The Lord of Hell? The Lord of the Spirit Realm? It seems that in addition to hell, the remaining two are ancient gods born at the beginning of the world, and that hell seems to be related to the abyss. ”

The existence of hell is only fleeting, and Zeus is not really impressed by it. The other party seems to have some needs for mortal souls, but it doesn't seem like the kind of existence that aims to destroy the world.

The mind has reached a dead end for a while, as if there is no similar existence in what I know. As for whether it is possible that the dream itself is fake......

Shaking his head slightly, although it was just a dream, the more Zeus thought about it, the more he felt that it was unusual.

How could the gods suddenly have such a real and gloomy dream, this may be the warning given to him by the laws of this world. But thinking of this, Zeus relieved his mind a little.

Now that the world itself has sensed all this, and even given warnings, it proves that it is not impossible to deal with. Just like when he faced Odin's remnants, fate has always been on his side.

So soon after, when the gods entered the shrine, Zeus's expression was as calm as ever. Without waiting for them to ask first, sitting on his throne, the God-King was the first to say:

"Ladies and gentlemen, it was indeed an accident to create such a movement in the middle of the night, but it was not without reason."

"Because just now, I got a prophecy."

······

Earth, the city of Eleusis.

What happened on Mount Kinabalu did not affect this mortal city, and it was even much more prosperous than it used to be.

At a time when most people are suffering from hunger and cold, there is such a country, which not only has not been harmed, but has repeatedly harvested, which is undoubtedly a great attraction to the surrounding countries.

For a time, the fame of Eleusis began to spread, and this country in the remote part of the human world gradually spread, and with it, the existence of the goddess of agriculture.

Mortals do not know that Demeter is responsible for their calamity, and even if a few guess this, they do not dare to openly slander the reputation of the gods. As a result, temples dedicated to the god of agriculture were also built more and more, and a large number of mortals came to pray to the goddess for a good harvest.

However, on this day, as a void flickered, two young figures appeared on a hill outside the city.

They looked down on the human city and watched the night market that was still lit up even at night. Here, primitive trade has already sprouted, and humans from other city-states have come here to exchange food and hope to meet the true god who has come to earth.

Of course, Demeter didn't have time to see them. Since she revealed her true form, only Tripp Tolemos can see the true face of the goddess.

If nothing else, this will continue until Demeter leaves...... But obviously, in the eyes of the Eros Twins, something is about to happen here.

"Do you think this city will still exist for a while?"

Sitting on a boulder, Eros dangled her calves and chatted with each other.

After making sure that Poseidon was not in the wrong place, they came here in advance through the spiritual realm. While waiting for the Sea Emperor, I can't help but be a little bored.

"It should be possible, they may fight, but they probably won't use their divine powers."

"After all, Demeter should know very well that she will not be Poseidon's opponent if she uses divine powers, and in this case, she should not make a senseless resistance - after all, it is not the first time."

Speculation was indifferent, and Voros wasn't just talking nonsense.

Before he came, he had already learned about the past of this goddess of agriculture. When she gave birth to Persephone to Zeus, she didn't resist too fiercely, and there should be no surprise this time.

"Tsk, speaking of which, we don't look like evil villains now—"

Nodding, Eros agreed with the other party's statement.

But thinking back to what she had done along the way, Eros couldn't help but smile.

"Half at most, there's nothing wrong with being a villain."

"But then again, it's not the winter we've summoned, it's not that we're in the human palace...... Well, that's called 'fishing', isn't it? ”

Pouting, Volos remembered the inexplicable word.

Fortunately, however, the language of the spirit world is both phonetic and ideological, so even if he doesn't know where the word came from, he can still understand the meaning.

"Anyway, the queen of the human race is stupid, but the goddess of agriculture is not very smart."

Clapping his hands, there was already movement in the sky, and the blue light was getting closer and closer. Voros no longer chatted, and he said lightly:

"Okay, the villain is the villain, this Poseidon is really slow."

"Just wait a little longer, mortal arrows...... It shouldn't last long. ”
