Saint Seiya: My Years as Poseidon

Chapter 158 Nereus's Surrender and Poseidon's Love

Temple of the Sea.

This is the divine domain created by Pontus, but with the disappearance of Pontus, the master of the Temple of the Sea has now been taken over by Nereus.

Unfortunately, he was only a second-rate god after all. Not to mention that he had to swallow his anger in the face of Oceanus's oppression, even without external pressure, it was somewhat unrealistic for a second-rate god to want to dominate the oceans of the four major realms of the universe.

"Nereus, are you coming down by yourself, or should I personally give you a ride?"

At this time, Poseidon stood in the lobby of the temple, looking at Nereus sitting on the throne, his eyes full of coldness.

Aphrodite beside him also had a face full of joking. Not to mention that Poseidon was the king of the sea, she herself was a main god. A second-rate god sat on the throne in front of two main gods. Isn't this asking for trouble?

In response, Nereus looked at the two of them and couldn't help but sigh. Then he slowly stood up, walked down the steps, and knelt on one knee in front of Poseidon.

"Lord Poseidon, I, Nereus, am willing to submit to you on behalf of the Sea Temple. I only hope that you can protect us, the Sea Gods, and our many descendants!"

"You are quite sensible, Nereus... Go gather your children and subordinates!"

"Yes... Lord Poseidon, this is half of the authority over the ocean that I hold!"

"Yeah! Go ahead!"

Poseidon accepted half of the power, which made Nereus feel relieved and a little joy appeared on his face.

He knew that Poseidon accepted his proposal.

Ever since Pontus left without saying goodbye, Nereus, who had been dominating the Temple of the Sea, has been living in fear.

There was no other way. Without the support of the main god, it was indeed powerless for him, a second-rate god, to control the ocean.

Now, Poseidon has taken control of the ocean and is willing to accept his surrender. Perhaps the treatment he will receive in the future will be much worse, but at least their lineage has been saved!

Seeing him leave, Aphrodite frowned slightly and said, "Poseidon, can Nereus be trusted? After all, he is Pontus' most loyal servant!"

Aphrodite did not call Poseidon "Sir". Now they were husband and wife to the outside world. In order to avoid causing unnecessary suspicion, they called each other by their first names.

Poseidon didn't mind this.

Although Aphrodite was only his subordinate god, they fell in love with each other over time, and the relationship between them had long surpassed a simple servant relationship. Poseidon was also willing to recognize her as his wife.

"Nereus is indeed a loyal servant of Pontus, but what if Pontus dies?"

When Poseidon said this, Aphrodite was stunned, then she laughed and suddenly realized.

For the gods, the relationship between family members is sometimes even worse than the master-servant relationship.

This point is especially evident among the ancient gods.

Just as Uranus never took his children seriously, Pontus never regarded Nereus and his companions as relatives, but simply regarded them as slaves.

In fact, because of the different powers used, Pontos didn't even think that the later gods could be compared with the ancient gods.

Just as all powers are degraded products of the ultimate power, in Pontos's view, the later gods who only have the microcosm of God but not the ultimate power are also degraded products of their ancient gods.

How can such inferior products be compared with their ancient gods?

Of course, no matter how Pontus viewed them, it didn't matter to Poseidon.

As long as they kill him, Nereus and the others will have no choice but to return.

Furthermore, Poseidon did not want to keep pretending to be a mid-level god. He also wanted to devour and absorb Pontus' ultimate power so that he could use more power openly.

The most important point...as long as Poseidon becomes stronger, he will definitely have less trouble in the future.

After all, who would dare to easily provoke a powerful Lord God...

A moment later, at the call of Nereus, all the gods in the Temple of the Sea gathered to pay homage to their new master.

No one dared to object to Poseidon becoming their master.

The gods all knew that now was the time when the Titans and the Olympians were at their peak.

In the future, the ruling power of the entire universe will inevitably be decided from the two great clans of gods.

Moreover, Poseidon is the main god and the destined king of the sea. Isn't it natural for second-rate and third-rate sea gods like them to submit to him?

"Very good. From now on, you are under my command... What's your name?"

"Lord Poseidon, my name is Amphitrite!"

Amphitrite, one of the sea nymphs, spoke up. She was also a rare second-rate god among Nereus' fifty daughters.

"Amphitrite, huh? Well, from now on, you are my wife!"

"Lord Poseidon, this..."

Amphitrite, Nereus, and a group of direct gods were all stunned when they heard Poseidon say this, and then looked at Aphrodite with some fear.

As Poseidon's wives, they couldn't help but worry that this would arouse the jealousy and revenge of the female god.

"It doesn't matter, Amphitrite! I am the goddess of love and beauty - Aphrodite. As for Poseidon's love, I will gladly accept his choice! But... I am the Queen of the Sea, and you are the Sea Consort, do you understand?"

"Yes, Lady Aphrodite!"

Amphitrite nodded in agreement and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Which goddess doesn’t return to youth and yearn for perfect love and marriage?

Unfortunately, when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.

Now, she could only hope that Aphrodite, the Queen of the Sea, would treat a "concubine" like her well!

Poseidon didn't say anything about this.

As for Amphitrite, he actually fell in love with her at first sight.

Even he had to admit that the original owner Poseidon did have good taste.

However, it is unrealistic to say that I would be completely bewitched by Amphitrite.

Having been with Aphrodite for so long, Poseidon's aesthetic standards had already been raised several levels because of her beauty.

If she was just an ordinary beauty, Poseidon would even look down on her!

Amphitrite (I couldn't find a good picture, so I'll just use this one)

Even though Amphitrite was indeed stunningly beautiful, she was still a level lower than Aphrodite!

"Then, for the next period of time, you will stay in the Temple of the Sea! Now that Zeus has pinned down Kronos and other Titan gods, the Sea God forces headed by Oceanus are in an isolated and helpless state! I will take them down in the shortest possible time, take back the remaining ocean authority, and become the true King of the Sea!"

"Yes, Lord Poseidon!"

Nereus and other gods agreed one after another, and after Poseidon gave Aphrodite a few instructions, he went straight to Oceanus!

Unlike Nereus, after Pontus disappeared, if Nereus' lineage wanted to live in peace, he had no choice but to surrender.

But it was different for Oceanus. From the perspective of the Titans, even if he surrendered, he and his wife Thetis would definitely be punished by the Olympian gods!

There's nothing we can do about it, since they are both members of the Twelve Titans!

Therefore, from their point of view, there is no doubt that Oceanus and Tethys will fight to the death!
