Greece: I am the master of destiny!
Chapter 86 The Complete Break Between the God King and the God Queen
Cronus had never been so angry.
Since becoming the God-King more than a thousand years ago, even during those years of forbearance, those damned Titans simply ignored Him.
The root of ignoring Him is not taking Him seriously, so naturally there would be no mockery or insults. But today, on His sacred mountain, His Queen, the beautiful and gentle goddess of time, Rhea, uttered a truly vicious curse upon Him.
Cronus flew into a rage almost instantly.
It wasn't just because the majesty of the god-king was inviolable, but also because the curse that Uranus uttered was His true Achilles' heel.
Although he had never spoken of it over the years, Cronus had never forgotten the curse for even a moment.
He grew stronger and stronger, even gaining complete recognition from the world and becoming a true god-king. He also made all the gods who had previously looked down on him pay the price. He seemed to be enjoying boundless glory, but the shadow of that curse always lingered in his heart.
He was never without fear or worry; the greater the power of the God-King, the more He feared losing it.
He was once the most valiant of the twelve Titans, but that was because he had nothing at the time, so he could fight to the death.
But now things are different. He has everything, but that unparalleled courage has vanished without a trace.
So the moment Rhea uttered those words, He was instantly enraged, His divine power surged wildly, and His terrifying divine power instantly caused fluctuations in the laws of the world. In an instant, all the ancient Titans looked toward the direction of the divine mountain.
Although they did not know what had happened, they felt the wrath of the God-King. Even from such a distance, that terrifying power still chilled them to the bone.
Cronus, completely disregarding the thoughts of the other gods, roared, "Rhea, do you know what you're saying?! Shut up!"
"What, did I say something wrong?"
Rhea, however, showed no fear. Instead, she burst into laughter: "Cronus, I was blind to have been deceived by someone as despicable as you!"
"Cronus, you're a coward!"
Before Rhea could finish speaking, Cronus had already attacked in a rage. The terrifying power of the god-king pressed down on Rhea, and she felt as if she were being crushed by a mountain. Suddenly, a metallic taste filled her throat.
Bright red blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, but Rhea still held her head high, refusing to lower it even slightly. Although she could no longer speak, she still looked at Kronos with an extremely mocking gaze.
This made Cronus even angrier, but he still had his senses, because he knew he couldn't do anything to Rhea.
Because the fertility laws of Gaia, the Earth Mother, blessed Rhea, Rhea was destined to be the Queen of the Gods, and Cronus had no way to eliminate her.
Not only could He not erase Him, He couldn't even replace the Queen.
But He was so angry at that moment that His gaze turned to the child in Rhea's arms.
With a cruel smile playing on his lips, and amidst Rhea's sudden change in expression, Kronos snatched the newborn infant away and, under Rhea's horrified gaze, swallowed it whole.
Rhea's eyes instantly turned red. She opened her mouth to scream, but under the pressure of the great power, she couldn't make a sound and could only shed large tears in vain.
Because of the intense pain, Rhea's beautiful face was even somewhat distorted.
Upon seeing this, Cronus revealed a smile of revenge, as if to inflict even more pain on Rhea, and stepped forward in retaliation.
The tyrannical god-king shoved the immobilized Rhea to the ground, then tore open her clothes, lowered his head, and bit her firm, round breasts.
Rhea trembled in agony, large tears streaming down her face, but she could do nothing.
A deep hatred filled her eyes at this moment. The God King and God Queen had finally broken up completely. More than a thousand years of love and affection vanished into thin air, leaving only boundless hatred.
The hatred was so intense and piercing, but Cronus was too busy sucking his tongue to see it.
Meanwhile, in the ocean.
Oceanus, the ocean god, looked worriedly at the distant sacred mountain, but because Cronus was becoming increasingly powerful, he could no longer see what was happening on the mountain.
The water goddess Tethys stood beside Oceanus, her face also filled with worry: "Is Philyra alright? Cronus likes her very much; he shouldn't let anything happen to her..."
Towards the end, Tethys's voice lost its confidence.
"Alas, we owe her," Oceanus said, letting out a deep sigh.
Although the Ocean God enjoys giving away daughters and frequently arranges marriages to maintain relations with the gods, he never forces his children to marry.
Oceanus would not force any of the three thousand beautiful ocean goddesses to marry anyone unless they wished; it was all up to their own free will.
Although Cronus was not yet powerful enough at the time, he was still the king of the gods. Oceanus wanted to cultivate a relationship with him and was wondering which goddess to send as a gift when Philyra and Cronus met by chance at sea.
It was an accident, yet it wasn't an accident.
Surprisingly, Oceanus had not yet decided which daughter to give to the king of the gods. Unsurprisingly, Philyra's outstanding beauty and gentleness would attract few gods.
Cronus was no exception; the god-king developed feelings for Philyra.
He was still holding back at the time and did not take Philura away directly, but His affection for her was still obvious.
Oceanus and Tethys then asked Philyra for her opinion. Although Philyra did not like Cronus, she was a sensible goddess.
When she realized that she had already been chosen by the God King, and that refusing might cause trouble for the ocean, she offered herself as a gift from the ocean to the God King.
Oceanus and Tethys felt very guilty towards their daughter and always wanted to make amends to her.
Philura never wanted anything; her understanding nature was heartbreaking.
Now that such a big commotion has occurred on the sacred mountain, and they still don't know what happened, Oceanus and Tethys immediately began to worry about Philyra.
"Why hasn't Metis returned yet? Could it be that he hasn't found out anything..." Oceanus stopped abruptly before he could finish speaking, because he saw two figures walking towards them.
The goddess of wisdom, Metis, led the way, and behind her, the goddess with a protruding belly, was none other than Philyra, whom they longed for!
Seeing the once beautiful goddess looking so haggard, Tethys's eyes instantly reddened, and his voice choked with emotion: "My child, you have suffered so much. We are useless..."
Philura, her eyes also red, then, under the surprised and shocked gazes of Oceanus and Tethys, slowly knelt down, supporting her belly.
"Child, what are you doing?!" Oceanus immediately went to help her up, but Philyra shook her head and said in a tearful voice:
"Father God, Mother God, Your Highness the Queen God already knows of my existence. I do not ask to live on, I only ask to keep this child."
"Please, I want to keep this child. He's my only bloodline, the only thing I can leave in this world. Please, please help me..."
