Chapter 83: I would like to serve you as King

Under the brilliant sunlight, Apollo stood silent.

Golden eyes faintly gazed at the distant sky with an eternal depth.

In front of him, the knelt Amphitrite snow-white cheeks filled with anxiety, beautiful eyes almost overflowing with tears.

Next to her, Triton was timidly bowing her head, not daring to look around.

After a long silence, Apollo finally said, “Amphitrite, though we are allies, we do not help each other for free. If I do this for you, what can you give me?”

Seeing that, he finally responded, “With your current status, you can’t be a good friend.” Amphitrite was quite relieved, silver teeth lightly biting her lips.

“With your current position, and my situation, I cannot give you much, but as long as you help me through this difficult time, I can give you more in the future.”

“Oh, I’d like to hear that.”

Amphitrite’s eyes shone brightly, and at this moment, she went from just like a sad wife abandoned by her husband back to the old days after the ocean of deep wisdom.

Gazing at the golden figure in front of her, she slowly said: “Although my current position is very embarrassing, after all, I have been the Queen of Sea for many years, the gods under Poseidon; half of the heart is still to my side.”

“As long as you help me win this war, I can collect the gods under my father, those are my brothers and sisters, and they are naturally my wing.”

“In this way, after the ocean is settled, there will be half of the gods will be my supporters with my son, and with your help outside with Athena and the Lord of the Stars, I will be able to gradually hollow out Poseidon or even replace him.”

Speaking of this, she used bright eyes to stare deeply at Apollo and said in a low voice: “I know that sooner or later you and Zeus will have a showdown, to decide the new King of Gods of the throne. At that time, I will lead the power of the entire ocean as your supporter.”

“And when you become the new King of Gods, I will lead all the ocean gods to submit to your divine court, and the ocean will hence be just a part of Olympus, instead of the current three kings standing side by side, and you will be the only King.”

Amphitrite offered such conditions that even surprised the Apollo.

This Queen of Sea had good courage, three generations since the divine court; the ocean had always been independent under the rule of the King of God.

Especially the current Olympus divine court, Poseidon and Hades, each claim to be the King, the sole leader of the divine system.

There had never been the King of God who could take the ocean completely into his jurisdiction.

If it was true what Amphitrite said after he overthrew Zeus, the new divine court would no longer have a Sea God system, only the Sea Gods appointed by the King of God.

“And you don’t need to worry that I will deceive you and break my word later.”

Amphitrite gazed at her son, who was still cowardly and bowed down beside her, and sighed quietly, “Triton simply cannot become a king; he will only be your enthroned puppet, and we cannot betray you.”

“Betrayal?” Apollo laughed softly, “We are just a partnership. We have not become a king and a subject. How can we talk about betrayal?”

So saying, he slowly looked into the distance, his voice low: “I will go to the ocean to participate in the battle. You go back first.”

“Thank you, Apollo.”

Amphitrite abruptly lowered her head, bowed, and led her son away with quick steps.

Shortly after they left, Aphrodite came out and asked, “Are the goddesses Amphitrite and the maidens gone?”

Apollo nodded.

“What did you talk about?” Aphrodite wondered, “I saw that she just had a sad look in her eyes, and she brought Triton with herself.”

“About her giving me her sisters as a wife,” Apollo said with a chuckle.

Aphrodite gave him a blank look: “She has three thousand sisters; you can’t take care of them all.”

“Yes, her three thousand sisters together are not one-tenth as beautiful as you alone; I’d a better look after you.” Apollo smiled.

Aphrodite’s cheeks suddenly reddened, and she laughed angrily: “I think you and Hecate and the girls also said the same thing.”

“Haha, I have to go see someone now,” Apollo said to her.

“What person?” Aphrodite asked.

“A Goddess.”

“Is it beautiful?”

“Beautiful.”

“As beautiful as I am?”

“A little less, but smarter than you.”

“You keep calling me stupid, huh? I’m angry.”

……

Once again, I came to the temple of the Goddess of wisdom, and this time I was greeted by Nike, the Goddess of victory.

But the good thing was that this goddess with beautiful wings, this time, did not dare to stop Apollo from anything.

There was even a little fear in her eyes.

Looking at the radiant and beautiful wings on her back, Apollo realized something.

The image of him tearing up Hermes’ wings was probably too bloody and scared the goddess, who also had wings.

Entering Athena’s quarters, the Goddess of wisdom sat quietly at a table, reading a book.

A light red dress, set off by a slender and upright posture, bright eyes quietly gazing at the book, the body emitting a faint fragrance.

Sensing the sound of footsteps outside, she said lightly: “You’re here?”

“You knew I was coming?”

“I also know that you have just met the goddess Amphitrite.”

“Indeed!”

Apollo’s mouth curved, and he walked up to her with his handsome cheek close to her eyes, “You told her to come to me like that, and you taught her those words about emptying Poseidon and mastering the oceans, the same as what you said against Zeus last time.”

“I didn’t want to hide it from you; otherwise, I wouldn’t have left such an obvious breach.”

Athena quietly closed the book in her hand and raised her beautiful cheeks full of light.

The two faces were very close to each other.

So close that they could feel each other’s breath and see the details of every pore on each other’s face.

Gazing for a while, Athena suddenly laughed: “Have you not blessed your new marriage with Aphrodite? With her beauty, it is rare that you still have time to wander around.”

“Of course, she is very beautiful, but in terms of wisdom and temperament, it is far worse than you. I still like you have the substance,” Apollo said lightly.

Athena blinked her bright eyes: “You such love words to deceive Aphrodite and Hecate they can, in my case, is less meaningful.”

“Then how can I shock the heart of the Goddess of wisdom?” Apollo asked.

“In this world, the only thing that can shock the deepest wisdom is a deeper wisdom and the strongest power that can override everything.”

Listening to these words, Apollo’s face suddenly flashed with a touch of playfulness.

“Why do I get the impression that you are implying that you like to be used by force?”

“The use of force also depends on the object; a beautiful girl, if used by some bad god with force, will struggle vigorously. But if she is forced by a handsome prince, perhaps she will not struggle but will actively meet.”

Athena said with interest, completely without any aspects of the ordinary goddess’s shyness about these aspects, as if she was just discussing some philosophical issue.

“The temperament of the Goddess of wisdom is not comparable to ordinary goddesses.” Apollo sighed softly.

Then he sat down and asked, “How do you see the current situation of the ocean?”

In the small room, Athena curbed her smile and became serious.

“The situation of the ocean the key point is not in Poseidon, Oceanus, Pontos, the three kings, but in Earth Mother Gaea.”

“Pontus and Oceanus are both sons of Earth’s Mother, Gaea. Poseidon and Earth Mother are lovers of each other, but in essence, Earth Mother has also given birth to children for Pontos.”

“Since the three generations of the divine court, the one who controls the situation of the ocean has never been anyone else but the Main God, the Earth Mother.”

With a thoughtful look on her face, she continued.

“I just don’t understand; the most solid figure in this world is the triangle. The ocean power is divided into three, obviously more suitable for her to secretly control the situation, now why she wants to detonate the war of the ocean, let the ocean back to unity.”

“Oceanus aside, Poseidon and Pontos are not simple characters, they may have various connections with the Earth Mother, but when either of them completes the unification of the ocean, they will never be willing to become the Earth Mother’s puppet.”

“Actually, goddess Amphitrite’s worries are a bit unnecessary. Although her situation is embarrassing, even if her husband falls to Earth Mother now, as long as the war is won in the future, he will definitely turn around and eliminate the influence of Earth Mother. ”

Listening to her anatomy of the ocean situation, Apollo said in a deep voice: “In other words, my opponent in the ocean this time is never Pontos and the others, but Earth Mother Gaea?”

“What, are you afraid?” Athena smiled and gazed at him.

Lifting his golden eyes, Apollo looked into the distance and said lightly.

“I heard that when our  God Father uses the power of the King of God, his strength is not weaker than any Main God, I have fought with him several times, and this time I want to see what kind of rank the real Main God is.”
