Chapter 13 The father-in-law meets the son-in-law
What are your plans for the future?
This seemingly simple question is actually full of murderous intentions. This is an old father's test of his son-in-law. Why should he give his daughter happiness and what plans he has for the future.
Although Zeus has never been in a relationship or married, he has seen too many such tricks on some short video platforms.
"In the future I plan to stabilize."
Stablize?
Oceanus frowned, his intuition told him that the brat in front of him was definitely a hero, how could such a person be stable?
Wait, are you saying...
……
"In the future, I plan to settle on Mount Olympus. After all, I am also a child of Cronus. My brothers and sisters and I have the right to settle on Mount Olympus, right?"
That's right, when it came to Zeus's question about his father-in-law, his absolute trump card was the real estate certificate.
Although it is the ancient times, but there is a house and it is in a prime location like Mount Olympus, and its value is more valuable than a courtyard house next to the Forbidden City.
Immediately, Zeus also pointed out his relationship with Cronus. On the one hand, he was to testify that he was not empty talk, and on the other hand, he also said that he had many brothers, and they could take care of each other in the future.
As long as you come forward to mediate with Cronus, old man, then I can definitely give Metis a happy future.
Thinking that he would soon have a god as his backer, no matter how calm Zeus was, the corners of his mouth still curled up.
He had no professional training, so he couldn't hold back the smile.
……
This son is so vicious.
After hearing the first half of Zeus's sentence, Oceanus still didn't understand why, but the second half of the sentence confirmed Oceanus' conjecture.
This son wants to live on Mount Olympus, but doesn't he know who the owner of Olympus is now?
Zeus and Cronus are mortal enemies in the prophecy. Based on Oceanus' understanding of Cronus, the other party will never abdicate.
At the same time, he still remembered the brothers and sisters that Zeus said. If he remembered correctly, there were six of them including Zeus.
Oceanus naturally wouldn't think that the other five were monsters like Zeus, but this was also the chip that Zeus threw at him.
There are five others as powerful as me, so you can't get on the boat.
Normally, Oceanus would definitely stay as far away from a monster as Zeus, but Metis...
"It's not easy to settle in Olympus, your father's side..."
"I know, that's why I need your help."
Zeus's words directly made Oceanus turn blue, which meant that he should be the internal response to Zeus.
"Cronus is not easy to persuade."
Oceanus wanted Zeus to retreat, but when he said these words, the joy on Zeus' face became more intense.
This made Oceanus feel cold, did he fall into this little guy's trick again?
……
"Cronus is not easy to persuade."
When Oceanus said these words, Zeus was in an unexpected burst of ecstasy. Speaking of this plan showed the opponent's concession.
Whether it is a god or a human, their nature likes to reconcile. From Zeus's point of view, although Oceanus refused to speak up for him directly, the fact that the other party can say this means that the other party is not unable to talk.
"Of course I am aware of my father's stubbornness, but my father's family is not the only one living on Mount Olympus. The twelve Titans are in harmony with each other. This family property can more or less say something. If there are more uncles and uncles to help Nephew, then father will think about it more or less."
Cronus was able to successfully attack a generation of God Kings back then with the help of the Twelve Titans, so this Mount Olympus is not just his own.
If he could persuade other titan gods to protect him, then Uronos would not dare to act rashly.
Zeus knew that he couldn't put all his capital in one basket. Although he wanted to kneel down to Cronus, what if the other party didn't appreciate it?
When the time comes, pull a few more Titans to help him support the scene. Even in the worst case, Cronus will hold his nose and recognize his son.
……
This Zeus...has such a vicious gaze.
If it weren't for the fear of the ocean's temperature rising, Oceanus would have wished to take a few breaths to soothe his mood.
If what I said before was a bit of a slap in the face, then what I said now is to directly point out that I want to pull the mountain.
Oceanus helped Rhea hide the bodies of the three male gods back then, which actually showed in a way that he also felt a little uncomfortable with Cronus.
After all, this brother has been a little drifting since he became the king of gods. How could he defeat God the Father if the 12 people hadn't joined forces back then?
This guy is all his fault.
In fact, there are quite a few people who have this kind of thinking. The God of Light and the Goddess of Light even bothered to watch him hide in the east, ignoring the affairs of Olympus for many years.
Zeus meant to let him win over other Titan gods, and even if he couldn't win over, he had to keep him neutral.
Wait, does this guy approach Leto and Asteria just to neutralize his parents?
Well, this Zeus really has a deep heart, and he has already made up his mind.
I thought that Metis was so naive that he was deceived by Zeus. How could a man with such a scheming mind not know how to swim?
Even the itinerary of Metis at that time was counted by Zeus.
but……
"It's not impossible to consider."
That's right, Oceanus was originally unhappy with Cronus, and besides, there are talented people from generation to generation, and their generation has always held power to suppress these juniors. How is this method different from the Father God back then?
Since Rhea can give birth to a monster like Zeus, even if the other children are not as good as Zeus, they may not be so bad.
On this basis, we get the help of some Titans, and then isolate some Titans. Under this trade-off, Zeus' victory is basically a certainty.
More critical is Gaia, the Mother Earth.
No one in the Greek gods knows how many cards the mother goddess has. Even Kronos must admit that Gaia created opportunities for his success back then.
"Thank you uncle."
Seeing that Oceanus agreed to attack, Zeus naturally expressed his gratitude respectfully, and Oceanus also had to admit after seeing Oceanus that the young man in front of him would surely make a career.
"Hmph~ Don't think that I can play much role. Whether you can get the support of other titans depends on your own efforts."
Oceanus left the palace after speaking.
He understood the size of Zeus, such a person is indeed worthy of Metis.
Chapter 14 I didn't die from Brother Cheng, but got Brother Cheng's disease
Oceanus left, and Zeus's heart was half relieved watching his leaving back.
"Hahaha~~time is turning."
The original Zeus was just an unlucky traveler who was predicted to become a great rebel without doing anything, and then lived like a fugitive from birth.
But now things are turning around, not only does he meet a girl who likes him, but he also has a powerful old man.
With the mediation of the old man, his identity can be cleared up quickly. As for the changes in the myth?Zeus doesn't care about that either.
Myths change when they change, and it doesn’t change any important history anyway.
In addition, the Greek gods in this world have all become silicon-based life forms, and this world is obviously not a serious world, and it may be the most correct way to directly smash it.
"Zeus, father didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"
Seeing Oceanus leave, Metis poked his head out. She knew how much anger her father had bred at that time, and Metis was always outside the door to prevent Oceanus from violently killing people.
If this moment came, Metis planned to rescue Zeus.
"It's okay. Uncle has a gentle personality. How could he do anything to me, a junior? By the way, I have a new game here, do you want to play together?"
"New game? Well, I want to play."
Although Metis is not very smart, but this father who has known him for many years, although the other party looks gentle, if he really touches his bottom line, he will still violently kill people.
And the bottom line is his children.
But Zeus not only touched this bottom line, but also spread his wings near this bottom line. After this operation, he can still play games with Metis calmly.
The Zeus in Metis' heart suddenly had a mysterious filter, which made Metis want to explore it.
"By the way, is the new game more fun than Monopoly?"
"Of course, the game of kings will not become obsolete even after thousands of years."
Zeus naturally had his own calculations when he went to play the game of kings. Metis is so easy to deceive... No, she is kind.
What if such a kind girl is snatched away by others if she doesn't seize the opportunity?
And the king game is a way to quickly heat up the relationship between the two. How could Zeus miss this opportunity.
"Alright, let Leto and Asteria join in then."
Although Metis doesn't know how to play the king game, it is her creed that good things should be shared with her sisters.
"Together? That's fine too."
The game of kings is not a game for two people. It is not difficult to let the two sisters Leto and Asteria join in, but...
What's with this dangerous feeling?
If there is the sound of hot water boiling now, then Zeus has no doubt that he will be pierced by a sharp knife as soon as he turns around.
Damn it, why did he start to worry about things that Brother Cheng would worry about even though he was still innocent.
……
"Oceanus, why did you suddenly have the pleasure to invite the two of us? And if you're really in a hurry, you can go to Mount Olympus."
In the palace of Sea God, two rare visitors came, one was Mnemosyne, the goddess of memory, and the other was Themis, the goddess of justice who had just spoken.
The goddess of justice holding the scales is the most advocating fairness. Since Oceanus is looking for her, it should be Oceanus who came to the door in person, but unexpectedly, the other party proposed to let them come to the Sea God's Temple.
"Calm down Themis, Oceanus probably wants to say something that Cronus cannot hear."
The long black hair of Mnemosyne, the goddess of memory, was dragged to the ground, but she didn't care at all. The power to control memory allowed her to remember everything that happened, which also made her treat everything very calmly.
Unlike this short-tempered sister, Mnemosyne had already organized everything in her mind.
Cronus went to sea and almost drowned, and then began to prepare to attack Crete where the mother goddess is.
"In Greece, it was the prophecy that made Cronus so close to the enemy. If I'm not mistaken, the child that Cronus swallowed has already escaped, and you are also involved."
Although Mnemosyne didn't have enough wisdom, by constantly deliberating the key information in her memory, she still allowed her to see most of the truth.
And this also surprised Themis.
"Oceanus, you want to rebel?"
"It's not that I want to rebel. Isn't it you who has the biggest opinion of him in Olympus now? Themis."
Cronus didn't make any changes after he became the king of gods, except that the whole of Greece was still a stagnant pool after the change of power.
The biggest opinion on this is Themis, because of Cronus' dictatorship, this makes her justice impossible to claim.
After all, justice cannot judge the king of gods.
"This time it was Zeus, the youngest child of Cronus, who made Cronus stumble."
Then Oceanus told what he knew. After all, without his secret help, how could Rhea send Zeus to Crete?
Without his help, Cronus would have been rescued from the sea by him long ago.
Without his help, where should the bodies of Zeus and others be hidden?
What Oceanus said basically confirmed Mnemosyne's conjecture. No matter which side Oceanus was on before, he is now on Zeus' side.
"I'm so curious, Zeus actually let you work for him? Could it be that he has a combat power not inferior to Cronus?"
Themis understood the strength of the 12 of them, and it was basically a fantasy for them to work for a nephew.
But it's only been a few days since Cronus' accident, and Oceanus is so convinced?
