NOVEL NEXT Chapter 172: Chapter 170
At the top of Mt. Olympus is a majestic palace towering over the mountain. It's surrounded by clouds and from time to time it's also surrounded by open blue sky or dark sky coupe with the twinkling night star. Its design showcases classical Greek architecture, featuring tall, white marble columns, intricately detailed pediments, and domed roofs with vibrant accents of gold and blue. Statues of gods and horses stand prominently, symbolizing divine strength and nobility. The central structure is towering while smaller temples and buildings are arranged symmetrically around it. Lush greenery and pathways add a serene touch. A long, elegant staircase leads down to the domain of Olympus, flanked by lush greenery and illuminated by glowing torches.
In one of the private rooms, the King of Olympus, Zeus is standing all naked and observing his domain below the mountain through the tall arched windows with red curtains. The windows also provide the room with natural light coming from the open sky outside. The light shines upon a naked and sleeping woman at the top of a large, intricately carved golden bed adorned with soft white and lavender bedding, exuding both comfort and sophistication, flanked by matching nightstands and elegant lamps. The walls showcase detailed paneling and a central gold-framed circular painting. A red and gold carpet anchors the space, complemented by a golden wardrobe, decorative plants, a regal chair, and a chandelier, enhancing the room's opulence.
'This will not be the only thing I'll overlook in the future' Zeus mused with a smile 'But I need to be patient, I don't want to tip off the Great Red yet on what I'm doing here' He thought while looking at a book called Epsilon Chi Epsilon in an open drawer near the bed, He walks to it with casual demeanor not afraid to even wake up the naked woman on the bed. As he reached the drawer he looked at the book with reverie that made him almost want to kneel in front of it but he held himself back. 'Let's reserve that after I see Him again myself' He thought before closing the drawer again.
Zeus walked back to the window to resume his musing but a gust of wind that came from the back blew his hair to the front. With his musing interrupted, Zeus turned to the source of it and saw Hermes, The God of Speed, Merchant, and Thieves but he is commonly known as the Messenger of the Olympian Gods.
"Lord Zeus," Hermes said with his head bowed. He exudes confidence and agility, his golden hair swept upwards as if touched by the wind. He wears a simple white tunic, belted at the waist for ease of movement, paired with ornate bracers and winged sandals—symbols of his unmatched speed. A golden emblem adorns his chest, emphasizing his divine status.
"Entering my abode without my permission? You're audacity is unmatched!" Zeus said with fury while staring down at one of his sons.
Hermes moved his head upward from the bowing position before staring Zeus in the eyes.
The staring contest between the two gods took a while before both of them laughed loudly.
"I can't be mad at myself," Zeus said loudly while still laughing.
"I knew you wouldn't but you still almost got me," Hermes said while wiping the tears from his eyes. He then turns to the naked woman before holding his mouth to stop laughing. "Oh my, I didn't notice her, should we be quiet as not you know our secret" He said while pointing at the sleeping woman on the bed.
"Don't you already know that she's a deep sleeper?" Zeus question but he already knew the answer because.
"You know I don't want to be connected to our hivemind because you're constantly thinking of fucking and cucking someone" Hermes replied.
"I can't help it! I can't control this body of mine" Zeus shouted while swinging his dong like a crazy fool.
"Whatever! Man" Hermes replied before going to the topic of why he was here "I delivered the message to the Aesir but I believe that won't stop them from helping GAIA to mess with our domain in the future, especially if GAIA had some kind of deal with them." He said "Or worse with a combination of GAIA and Odin, they might discover our secret"
After Hermes shares his thought, Zeus is in deep thought "You do have a point, I don't want them snooping around especially Frigg because I know Odin is going to send her instead of sending his attack dog as he's afraid something might happen out of his control." He said as he understood the clear trust between Odin and Frigg.
"Then I'll find GAIA to get rid of her and the other Titans with her" Hermes suggested so they could eliminate the possibility of another titanomachy that aimed towards the Gods of Olympus instead of the Titans.
With his arms crossed to his chest, Zeus shook his head "Scratch that, let Artemis and her huntress deal with her. I have a much more urgent task than GAIA and Odin." He said with a serious tone.
"Oho.... what do you need me to do then?" Hermes curiously asked.
"Athena is lurking around me and trying to observe me," Zeus said.
Hermes nodded in response, Zeus already explained that he made a blunder of asking too much and doing some testing after the huntresses defeated Dionysus's monster version. Now, Athena had her eyes on him almost 24/7.
"So, I want you to counter Athena by doing what she's doing to me," Zeus ordered his other self.
"Got it" Hermes replied.
"And if she got too curious and discovered our secret plan then we do what we had to do."
Both Zeus and Hermes smirk. They then started talking about how to find the Key as they had no clue how to find or create it. Their discussion was interrupted when the naked woman started moving. Both of them turn their head towards her gorgeous body.
"Father, why are you standing there? Come and sleep with me" The woman said.
"I'll join you soon, Aphry" Zeus said to the woman whose name is Aphry or Aphrodite. She is considered to be flawlessly beautiful. She has long, auburn hair kept in a braid and blue eyes. Her body can be considered "perfect" since she is the Goddess of Love, Beauty, and Sexuality. She is tall and fit, while her breasts are large and perfectly shaped.
Aphrodite nodded before looking to Hermes "What are doing here, Brother?" she asked.
"I'm here to report on Lord Zeus but I'm done already. I won't further interrupt your happy time" Hermes replied with a smile.
"Why not join us? The more the merrier" Aphrodite said sultry even though she already had a husband, she just couldn't help but seek pleasure.
"Sorry Aphry, I'll decline because I have a mission to fulfill." Hermes said before turning to Zeus "Lord Zeus, enjoy your time" He bowed his head as he said that.
"Go" Zeus ordered to Hermes and the latter left the bed room as fast as he could. Zeus then turned to the Goddess of Love with a smile "Seems like you are good for another round" He said while walking towards the bed.
"Just one round, Father as I need to go back to my husband" Aphrodite replied while thinking about Hermes who called her by the pet name that Zeus gave her. No other god or mortal calls her that except Zeus but if someone really did call her by her nickname that someone would feel the wrath of Zeus. However Zeus for some reason was not angry at Hermes which made her curious but she put it a the back of her mind as she focused on the upcoming pleasure that she was about to receive from her Father Zeus.
