Chapter 841 Was it really necessary to prepare for so many years just to rule the entire Divine Realm?
Chapter 841 Was it really necessary to prepare for so many years just to rule the entire Divine Realm?
“Zeus, now that the Cosmic Entity has vanished and the energy fields are in chaos, it’s inevitable that our Ultimate Force Alliance will unify the Divine Realm,” declared Uranus.
Behind Uranus followed a massive Nine-tailed Dragon Scorpion, a Golden Gryphon mutated from a Gryphon, a dark aura-emitting Hydra, and a Behemoth with a dragon’s tail.
In the recent battle, these four beasts rampaged through the gods as if no one could stop them.
Zeus stood calmly on the high platform and said lightly, “You want to unify the Divine Realm and be its king. I can grant you that. Why start a war and kill so many creatures?”
Uranus and Odin were silent.
They had considered that Zeus might have some tricks up his sleeve, being a disciple of William the Obliterator. It wouldn’t be surprising if he had some hidden strengths.
Odin and Uranus had even thought that if Zeus’s trump card was strong enough, they might consider letting him rule over some land and people.
Of course, they couldn’t kill Zeus.
This was the conclusion Odin and Uranus had reached after much deliberation.
William the Obliterator was known for favoring his friends and family!
That much was clear to Uranus and his allies.
Forget the fact that William the Obliterator had promised not to interfere with the affairs between the Ultimate Force Alliance and the Divine Alliance.
Zeus was William the Obliterator’s disciple, and just on that point alone, if they really killed Zeus, William might very well seek retribution.
And that was not a confrontation they could afford.
But they never expected Zeus to respond to their takeover by saying, “If you want to rule the Divine Realm, go ahead.”
Not even a hint of resistance?
Not even a symbolic curse?
Even earthly kings faced with a coup, even with enemies at their gates, would at least utter some words of condemnation.
“Zeus, what trick are you playing?” Odin could hardly believe these words came from Zeus.
So many gods had fallen in this battle, and Zeus wasn’t planning on avenging them?
“What tricks can I play? You want to rule the Divine Realm, right?” said Zeus. “I’m letting you do as you wish now.”
“Really?” Odin was still in disbelief that Zeus would compromise so easily.
He shouted, “Zeus, you can’t just give in to them like that!”
“Zeus, your master might help, right… and there’s William the Obliterator…”
“Zeus, what about your thunderbolt? If you use your thunderbolt, you definitely have a fighting chance!”
“Zeus, the Divine Alliance can only rely on you now!”
The captured gods shouted loudly, hoping Zeus wouldn’t give up so easily.
They still had so much hope.
Zeus’s thunderbolt was incredibly powerful,using it might even turn the tide of the current situation.
Poseidon and Hera hadn’t even arrived yet,how could Zeus surrender?
Zeus ignored the pleas of those gods and said to Odin, “I have no problem relinquishing control over the lands and people of the Divine Alliance, but you must agree to three conditions.” 𝚏𝚛ee𝐰𝗲𝚋n𝐨𝘃𝗲l.𝐜𝐨m
“Otherwise, you will die here!” A flash of lightning sparked in Zeus’s eyes, and a golden thunderbolt slowly appeared on his forehead.
The appearance of the golden thunderbolt filled the entire Thunder Sanctum with a deadly aura.
This was Zeus’s unique artifact, the thunderbolt.
This thunderbolt was specially forged for him by William when Zeus was his disciple.
Over the years, Zeus had nurtured it with his essence, and it had become a supreme artifact.
Surely no one thought that Zeus, the king of gods, would be without any trump cards.
When Zeus summoned the thunderbolt, Odin and the others immediately felt the pressure increase.
They weren’t sure if they could defeat Zeus even if they joined forces.
And even if they could, at what cost?
The main point was, they were also gambling that Poseidon and Hera wouldn’t arrive in time…
Now that Uranus’s Celestial Compass had mysteriously repaired itself, if Poseidon and Hera joined forces with Zeus, they might not be able to withstand them.
They never really dared to kill Zeus, and now that Zeus was surrendering without a fight, it was naturally the best outcome. Why bother fighting?
“What are the conditions? Speak!” Odin and Uranus exchanged glances, then conceded.
It wasn’t really a concession!
Zeus was giving up control of the Divine Alliance, letting him set three conditions wasn’t too much.
It was reasonable.
Zeus said expressionlessly, “First, ensure the safety of the current priests and civilians of the Divine Alliance. No more senseless killing.”
“No problem,” Odin replied without hesitation, as managing the Divine Realm also required manpower.
They couldn’t just kill all the gods of the Divine Alliance.
“The second condition, the laws of the Divine Alliance remain unchanged. Treat the creatures of the Divine Realm well, maintain peace, and ensure equalityamong all races.”
“Is that even a condition?” Uranus frowned.
Zeus replied coldly, “Would you prefer I make a hundred more demands?”
Even surrounded by the Ultimate Force Alliance’s army, Zeus remained composed.
Odin said, “Continue, the third one.”
Zeus nodded in satisfaction, “The third condition is that after you unify the Divine Realm, leave me alone!”
“…”
If the first two were conditions, what was this third one?
“What do you say? Do you agree?” Zeus’s gaze swept over Odin and Uranus.
“Of course, that’s no problem!” Odin really couldn’t understand,they had taken over the Sanctuary of the Celestial Gods and unified the Divine Realm, why would they need to bother Zeus anymore?
Zeus sighed deeply, relieved.
“Finally, I don’t have to deal with these tedious matters anymore!” Dressed in a white robe, Zeus laughed heartily three times and strode out of the Thunder Sanctum, addressing the gods, “Dear gods, follow Odin and Uranus and maintain the order of the Divine Realm. Don’t come looking for me anymore, it’s useless, I won’t come back to be the king of gods!”
Zeus wasn’t sure how long it had been since he felt this relaxed.
Sitting in this position every day, deciding on every little matter of the Divine Alliance, was truly tiresome. Like today, he could have had a nice meal with William, but instead, he was forced to return…
Was managing the entire Divine Realm really that great?
Fifty thousand years!
For fifty thousand years, not a single day had been easy.
He couldn’t laugh, couldn’t cry, had no friends around, not even a confidant to talk to.
An immortal king, forever alone…
Zeus’s loneliness, not even William could understand. William at least could do what he wanted, but what about him? What could he do?
To maintain the peace of the Divine Realm, he had to protect too much, losing himself in the process.
The Ultimate Force Alliance attacking the Divine Alliance?
They had no idea how long Zeus had actually been waiting for this day.
Was it really necessary to prepare for so many years just to rule the entire Divine Realm?
