Chapter Thirty-Six: The Posture of Learning (4/5)

Mount Otrolus is desolate and barren, with a desolate and chaotic landscape as far as the eye can see.

Inside the temple, Cronus, whose hair and beard grew wildly and unruly like weeds, huddled in the shadows behind the table, tilting his head back and gulping down wine.

"boom!"

As he finished the wine, the raging Titan King threw the exquisite golden vessel to the ground and roared in fury.

"Wine! Where has it all gone! Bring me wine at once!"

"Don't stop! Keep drinking, keep having fun!"

However, the silent palace offered no response, and in his confusion, Cronus fumbled with his fingers on the table.

After finding another crooked wine jug, he shook it slightly and heard the sound of liquid sloshing inside. His eyes lit up, he grinned, and raised his hand to put it in his mouth.

But before they could even enjoy a drink, the wine jug was violently snatched away by a hand reaching out from behind.

"Stop drinking! Look at yourself!"

Queen Rhea, dressed in an elegant long gown, looked at her husband, who reeked of alcohol, threw down the wine jug, and frowned deeply.

"How did you get out here! Go back to your own palace!"

Cronus opened his sleepy eyes, looked at his wife with bloodshot eyes, and roared with a gloomy expression.

"Open your eyes and look, you fool! Your servants and your army have all fled."

"There isn't a single person guarding me on the entire mountain right now."

Queen Rhea pointed to the courtyard covered with fallen leaves and responded coldly.

Cronus looked around and saw that the nymphs serving wine and the warriors performing martial arts had all fled. Only a few Titans remained, still holding their ground, but they too had no will to fight.

"You're going to betray me too? Get out! All of you, get out!"

In his rage, the Titan King's eyes turned bloodshot, and like a wronged hyena, he overturned the table and slammed it to the ground.

Amidst the flying stones, one of them grazed Rhea's eyebrow, and blood seeped from the wound.

But the goddess showed no intention of wiping it away; she simply looked coldly at her husband, who was using this method to conceal his fear.

“I will not leave. I will watch you be defeated step by step by my child.”

"I want to see with my own eyes that your choice was wrong!"

Immediately, Rhea looked down at the god-king with a disdainful glance.

"Hmph, he hasn't even arrived yet and you're already scared out of your wits. If you kneel down in front of that child and repent, I can plead for you."

"But is this still the same man who once trembled and prostrated himself before our Father God, the only one who dared to take the scythe from the Mother Goddess and castrate Uranus?"

Cronus's pride was instantly stung by that contempt. He slammed his fist on the table and stood up angrily, grabbing Rhea by the collar, his eyes bloodshot as he roared furiously.

"Begging for mercy?! I am the master of Greece! And always have been!"

"If he wants this position, then let him have the ability to take it!"

Boom!

Suddenly, a silvery-white lightning bolt streaked across the sky, forming countless branches above Mount Otrothus, conveying a solemn and awe-inspiring signal.

Three days later, on the Sea of ​​Oceanus, the final battle will begin!

Alright! You rebellious scourge, how dare you defy me, the king!

The veins on the Titan King's forehead bulged, and his pale,颓废 face twitched, revealing a ferocious expression.

"Where are my brothers and sisters? Have they all run away too?"

Rhea crossed her arms and responded with undisguised indifference.

“Oceanos, Tethys, Phoebe, Mnemosyne, Theia, Hyperion, Coeus, Themis, and I, nine of the twelve Titans, have already declared their withdrawal from Mount Otyrus.”

"Soul Titan Iapetus, Weather Titan Lyos, I am still willing to stand by your side."

Kronos covered half of his face with one hand, his facial muscles twitching, unable to suppress his laughter.

"Iapetus, Crios, well done! Well done! You truly are my good brothers!"

"I will now summon the gods who are still subservient to the Titan order, and let these corrupted roots see who truly is the master of the world!"

Rhea raised an eyebrow and looked at her husband, who was grinning coldly.

"Just the three of you?"

Cronus's gaze was sinister as he raised his arm and swung it down, his expression unusually clear.

"Enough! That's enough! The nine Titans will not serve me seriously, nor will they truly serve that rebellious son to the death."

"As long as I win, they'll obediently kneel before me and repent!"

With his five fingers bent together, the Titan King reached out and pulled from the darkness the grotesque scythe forged by a Cyclopes from the darkest black volcanic rock deep within the earth.

"Buzz!"

Immediately, Kronos roared, his massive black scythe slamming into the ground, and a dark gray-black wave of ether surged into the sky, tearing apart the thunderclouds that filled the sky.

"Just wait! I will crush their pride! I will make these rebellious scourges kneel before me and repent!"

With his fighting spirit fully awakened, the Titan King snorted coldly and didn't look back again before getting up and heading down the mountain.

Each step is more solid, each step is more steady.

His brothers await his call; his army awaits his command.

Even as his reign comes to an end, he remains the king of this world.

Zeus, the seat is here; if you want it, come and take it!

In front of the portico of the Temple of Oterius, Rhea leaned on a pillar, watching the Titan king depart for war, a complex glint of tears welling in her eyes.

He was the child's father, but also her husband...

Meanwhile, outside the Alima cave.

Samael, basking in the sun in the woods, looked somewhat languid.

Zeus was incredibly patient; he actually humbled himself and personally persuaded and won over the core members of Mount Otyrus one by one.

As a result, I had to wait another two months, and I was constantly worried about whether the Empress had been exposed.

Before Metis could influence Zeus's judgment by moving into his new love nest, he had to be careful and keep a low profile.

I have no idea when this will end. I really want to study, and I really want to discuss law with Themis.

The ancient snake silently complained about his recent life, and as the name of that goddess of justice appeared in his mind, the person who had tasted the sweetness of marrow couldn't help but have wild thoughts.

Learning is for the sake of learning!

Samael, spouting reasons he himself didn't believe, embellished his dark, lecherous heart, dreaming about the posture for the next round of learning.

But suddenly the energy shifted, and the world turned grim. The ancient serpent immediately opened its eyes and looked up, its vertical pupils opening and closing.

Above the vast sky, countless stars streaked across the heavens, trailing long, fiery tails.

Thunder, storms, flames, and dazzling light intertwine, turning the sky into a canvas for arbitrary painting.

The ancient snake's eyes narrowed, and the corners of its lips curled up.

The war of the gods is finally coming!

Chapter Thirty-Seven: Two Little Girls, Double the Torture (5/5)

Woof...woof...

Just as Samael was lost in thought, a series of mournful cries came from the depths of the dense forest. The familiar tone made his expression change.

Cerberus!

The ancient serpent suddenly stood up and moved swiftly. When it reached the source of the sound, the majestic three-headed hellhound was lying on the ground, foaming at the mouth and occasionally kicking and twitching.

Behind the massive, mountain-like body, a petite figure was crouching at Cerberus's neck, forcefully pulling out a tuft of hair with both hands, carefully tying it with a rope, and placing it beside him.

Then, the curious little guy continued to rummage around the head of Cerberus, leaving behind a trail of mischief.

She would either lift the monster's eyelids to compare the differences between its six pupils, or lift Cerberus's chin and tap its teeth with a stone to test their hardness.

Whenever the trembling of the three-headed hellhound gradually subsided, and its four paws thrashed wildly at the ground, the little one would skillfully pull out something that looked like a thin needle and stick it into the three spots on the back of the guard dog's neck.

As a result, the unfortunate fellow, who had just shown signs of recovery, immediately became paralyzed again, whimpering and moaning.

When Cerberus saw the familiar silhouette appearing diagonally behind him, he thrashed about violently, like a drowning man grasping at a straw, his eyes brimming with tears.

Samael, his face as black as the bottom of a pot, strode over menacingly and kicked the stupid dog in the rear. The surging divine power instantly dispelled the trace amounts of toxins trapped in the dog's body.

As he regained consciousness, Cerberus jumped up in a panic, tucked his tail between his legs, and hid behind the ancient serpent, looking in horror at the little demon that had been tormenting him.

"Get lost! Look at you, so pathetic. I asked you to take care of her, and she took you down? What a waste of the name 'Hell Three-Headed Cerberus'!"

The ancient serpent glanced behind it at Cerberus, who was like a frightened bird, snorted coldly, and waved its hand, telling this disgraceful thing to get lost as soon as possible.

Cerberus, feeling as if granted a pardon, immediately turned around with a beaming smile and ran towards the Arima Cave as if fleeing for its life.

After chasing away the increasingly degrading stupid dog, Samael walked over with a sinister look in his eyes, coldly snorting and beckoning forward.

"Athena, you've been caught!"

"Hand over what you've been hiding!"

A little girl with short silver hair, about 60-70 centimeters tall, delicate features, and a pointed chin, took small, unsteady steps and obediently placed the item in Samael's hands.

The ancient snake looked down at the tuft of dog hair tied up with straw rope, and its face darkened.

"No! This is dangerous!"

"Oh…"

The silver-haired loli responded in a childish voice, handing over the sharp stone and two jet-black, sharp scales one after the other, then stood to one side with her hands behind her back.

"anything else?"

Samael narrowed his eyes and gazed intently at the future goddess of wisdom.

"Gone…"

Athena, who had just learned to speak fluently and still had a slightly childish voice, widened her pure purple eyes and shook her head innocently.

"Hands out!"

"Where's the other one?!"

"I meant both of them together!"

"Don't hold it up! You're not doing a magic trick on me! Straighten it out! Flatten it out!"

However, under Samael's keen scrutiny, the criminal, whose crimes had nowhere to hide, finally obediently spread his hands, revealing the exquisite stone bottle hidden behind his small hands.

The ancient snake snatched the stone bottle, pulled out the venomous needle that was attached to the bottle cap, and sniffed the liquid inside, feeling its blood pressure rise instantly.

"Hydra venom? You dared to use such a dangerous substance on that stupid dog?"

"Little Nine has nine heads, and not all of them are lethal; this is mainly for paralysis. I've even diluted it. Besides, they've grown up together since they were kittens, fighting several times a day, and biting each other is common. This dosage should be enough to withstand them..."

"You've ruined the Hydra too?"

"No, she gave it to me on her own initiative."

Athena's face tightened, and she spoke with conviction, her demeanor revealing a hint of righteous indignation.

"That stupid dog only knows how to bully girls. I'm standing up for my friend and fighting against injustice!"

Then, the little girl didn't forget to look up and give someone a disdainful glance, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Samael, who had been directly confronted, touched his nose guiltily, his expression slightly embarrassed.

To keep his promise, he actually teamed up with Cerberus and beat up the Hydra.

The problem was, he didn't find out until later that Hydra was actually female...
