Saint Seiya: My Years as Poseidon

Mount Otyres, Temple of Engraving.

"Hahaha... Zeus, ah Zeus, I thought I was beastly enough, but I didn't expect you to be even more beastly than me! It's a pity that Poseidon is not sensible. It would be great if he chose to join my Titan clan!"

Kronos showed regret on his face. Although his brain was not particularly smart, just like the Olympian gods had two wise men, Metis and Prometheus, Kronos also had the wise man Coeus.

Although, Koos's IQ is much lower than the other two.

But there is no problem in helping Kronos sort out some things.

For example, Kronos was very tempted by the benefits that Poseidon would gain if he joined the Titans.

In fact, in Kronos' opinion, if Poseidon was willing to turn from evil to good, he would not mind at all that he killed Oceanus and Tethys, and he was willing to restore the father-son relationship with him!

After all, Zeus is the god who should be blamed for Kronos's misfortune. What does it have to do with Poseidon?

"King, although Poseidon has rejected our invitation, we can continue to let this matter ferment. Even if we cannot completely shake the relationship between Poseidon and Zeus, we can at least create a rift within their clan! After all, with the precedent of Poseidon, other male gods will definitely be on guard against Zeus. Even if they are unable to resist Zeus, they definitely don't want their wives and daughters to fall into his hands!"

"Yes, you are right, Koeus, let's do it!"

Kronos looked at Coeus with admiration, then looked at Mnemosyne and said, "Mnemosyne, you are the goddess of memory, language, and writing. I want you to make this into an epic and pass it down through the ages! I want all living beings in this world and even in the future to know what Zeus is!"

Koeus also said: "Without comparison, there is no harm. Therefore, we must discredit Zeus and glorify Poseidon as much as possible! The different treatments between the two will also create a gap between them. Especially Zeus, this will definitely make him extremely disgusted with Poseidon. After all, Poseidon's good reputation was built by stepping on Zeus!"

"I see!"

Mnemosyne agreed immediately.

It’s not that she wanted to do so. In order to allow the nine daughters of the Muses to survive in the future era dominated by Zeus, she naturally could not discredit Zeus, because this would make Zeus more disgusted with the daughters born from their union.

But if she didn't do so, Mnemosyne would be punished by Kronos immediately, and her nine daughters would probably be liquidated immediately afterwards.

One is that the future may be worse, the other is immediate death. Between the two evils, choose the lesser one. It goes without saying what to choose.

Therefore, under Mnemosyne's manipulation, in just a few days, Zeus's infamy and Poseidon's good reputation spread throughout the world almost at the same time.

Let’s talk about Poseidon first. He respects the elderly and loves the young, is brave and resourceful, is not afraid of power, is helpful, and is kind and charitable... Almost all the good descriptions are used to describe Poseidon.

It made Poseidon seem like a shining saint, and even he himself felt a little embarrassed.

But there is nothing he can do about it, this is praise from his enemies. Even if he comes out to refute the rumor, his enemies will give him a thumbs up and say that he is a humble and good male god!

His heroic act of confronting Zeus for Aphrodite has become a famous story and is highly praised.

As for Zeus, the effect was similar, but he spread bad reputation.

In order to make his reputation infamous, the Titans even fabricated several events out of thin air and almost completely demonized Zeus.

Why did a 90-year-old woman come back to life? Why did sow rapes continue despite repeated bans? Even Poseidon was shocked when he heard about it.

Poseidon even wondered what kind of person could come up with such a distorted divinity and morally corrupt thing?

A few days later, Mount Olympus.

Zeus was almost in a state of collapse at this time. He did not expect that just wanting to seduce Aphrodite would cause such a big trouble.

Although his brain wasn't working very well, he could still feel the changes in his own camp.

Especially the way the male gods looked at him, that strange wariness made Zeus extremely dissatisfied.

F*ck it, I'm the third generation God King, so what if I fall in love with a goddess? What's wrong?

Besides, I’m playing with the goddess, not you, so what are you afraid of?

What? Can I still open your eyes?

But to Poseidon, Zeus was different.

It is said that rumors stop at the wise, but it is obvious that Zeus is not a wise man now.

Now, after the Titans’ propaganda, even Zeus began to doubt, could it be that his cheap second brother was really a saint with both good morals and excellent conduct?

As for Metis, Zeus's virtuous wife, she was also silent at this time.

Although as a wise person, she is well aware of the tricks of the Titans.

But even she had to admit that Poseidon's virtue was indeed much stronger than Zeus'.

Of course, when it comes to hating Poseidon, neither Zeus nor Metis did.

The Titans had miscalculated one thing; if the god who spread these rumors was not Mnemosyne but some other god, perhaps Zeus would indeed have been jealous of Poseidon.

But the fact that the god who spread these rumors was Mnemosyne is another matter.

In Zeus's view, Mnemosyne did this most likely to take revenge on him for having abandoned him.

For this reason, Zeus even regretted that he should not have given up Mnemosyne so early.

At least, if they want to give up on her, they have to wait until the Olympians defeat the Titans.

Although, Zeus had long lost interest in Mnemosyne, when he asked Poseidon to exchange Aphrodite for her, he actually wanted to give Mnemosyne to Poseidon!

In Zeus' opinion, it was totally worthwhile and a great deal to exchange the goddess he was tired of playing with for a happy night!

Now, after Mnemosyne's revenge, even Zeus began to doubt his own character.

"Zeus, it seems that we can't continue to implement the cannibalization plan. Your reputation is too bad. We must do something great to stop the gossip! Let's fight directly. As long as you defeat Kronos, your identity as the third generation of the gods will be officially confirmed. Even if the gods still criticize you, at least they will be convinced of your feat!"

Metis said, and Zeus nodded before sighing.

Originally, the plan advocated by Metis was a cannibalization plan, which was to have Zeus keep an eye on Kronos, and then use the power of Hades and Poseidon, the two main gods, to gradually disintegrate the combat power and influence of the Titans bit by bit.

But now, after this happened, Zeus no longer dared to gamble.

He was afraid. He was afraid that Poseidon had some feelings towards him and would really defect to the Titans.

Once the situation really develops to this point, it will be hard to say who will be cannibalized by whom.

Therefore, before the situation gets worse, a battle to determine the winner is undoubtedly the best choice...
