All the gods were reunited on Mount Olympus.
But this time, the gods were not whispering or gossiping, they were strangely silent.
The palace on Mount Olympus, which was once a noisy place, was now silent; no god dared to speak a word. In fact, they couldn't say anything, they couldn't say anything because they were afraid. They were afraid of Rao, the king god of Olympus, who was sitting on the throne of Olympus.
Athena looked at Rao who was sitting on the throne of Olympus as if he were an arrogant king, he just stood there. He made no move, and even then the pressure that was emanating from Rao's body was very great. All the gods felt as if they were carrying the whole world on their backs.
The gods didn't know why they were feeling this way; they were wondering if the king was angry. After all, he called a meeting but he hasn't said anything until now.
Some gods were secretly looking at the blade of Olympus that was embedded in the ground next to Rao's throne.
Rao shows a small smile: "I see that you took good care of my wife, right?" Helooked at all the gods, sometimes he stopped for a few seconds at the gods that caused Faora problems.
As if the atmosphere had suddenly become cold, the Olympian gods began to release cold sweat.
Artemis feeling Rao's gaze just turned her face away; she wouldn't dare look at Rao now.
Seeing that no god spoke a word, Rao comments: "My wife is a very competent woman, before she returned to her duties as queen of my people she gave me a list of all the gods who were planning to kill her."
If the gods were afraid before, now they were terrified. They finally understood why Rao called all the gods here; the king god was planning to eliminate all traitors.
Rao smiles coldly;he takes a scroll and throws it on the floor. The scroll opens like a ceremonial rug, and displayed a list of names that reached the entrance to the palace of Olympus:
Rao looks at Hades, Metis and Athena: "Without the support of Hades, Athena and Metis this scroll would not be able to exist; I want to especially thank Hades who spied on all traitors with his invisibility helmet."
"Everything I did is for the sake of the king and queen of Olympus." Hades spoke in a respectful tone as he bowed.
Athena smiled slightly and made a gesture of respect, but she said nothing.
Metis, who was Zeus' advisor, showed a small satisfied smile. She was having a great time seeing the new king of Olympus; in her mind this was how a king should act. At first, she didn't want to help Rao.
But when she saw Faora, she changed her mind. Faora was what she dreamed of being next to Zeus, a strong and proud queen, but unfortunately, that didn't happen.
Metis shows a respectful gesture towards Rao.
Rao nods in satisfaction.
"....."
All the gods involved just look at the three gods with their mouths open; they never thought they would be betrayed by their own companions.
But their surprise didn't end with just this:
"I must also thank Nyx, Artemis, Hera, Rhea and Gaia."
"What!?" A lesser god screamed in shock.
Rao looks at the lesser god; seeing Rao's red eyes staring at him, the god begins to cringe and pretend he doesn't exist.
Rao takes hisattention off the lesser god and looks at the women he mentioned.
The five goddesses approach Rao's throne and greet him in a respectful tone: "All for the new king of Olympus."
Rao focused his attention on Nyx, Artemis, Rhea and Gaia. He can understand Hera helping him, but these four goddesses? Why did they help him?
Artemis should hate Rao. After all, he killed her brother ... The same situation applies to Rhea; she is Zeus' mother, but why did she help her son's murderer?
Nyx and Gaia are unknown, he cannot understand why the two primary entities are helping him.
Rao can understand why Athena is helping him; to put it simply, Athena is a smart goddess. She realized that if she helps Rao and stays on his good side now, she would do well in the future..
Metis is only interested in seeing how Rao rules. He realized that Metis looked at him with the same look that Professor Alura In-Ze looked at him, it was the look of a teacher.
Rao looks at the primordial goddess with long green hair who was holding a golden staff. "I will not lie, I am a little surprised that you are here."
The goddess displayed a motherly smile: "I am here to give you a prophecy." Everyone focused on Gaia's words. When the goddess would continue to speak, Rao raises his hand with a stop gesture:
"Let me guess;my son in the future will be stronger than me and he will occupy my throne, right?" He showed a cold smile, he was clearly mocking Gaia's predictions.
"... Yes ..." Gaia felt uncomfortable, but she nodded.
“And? Go on. Ah,Let me guess, should I be careful with my kids, etc.? ”
"... Yes ..."
Rao sighs: “Gaia, don't you get tired of these games? I'm not Zeus, I have enough brains to realize that this is a lie. ”
Gaia spoke in a calm tone: "Don't you know that I have the power to prophesy a future?"
Rao spoke coldly: “Yes, I know you have that power, but I don't trust anything that comes out of your mouth. And even if my son takes my throne in the future, I will not complain; my son will only have to prove to me that he is worthy enough to bear my burden. ”
"What if he tries to get you off the throne?" Gaia showed a gentle smile, but soon that smile breaks when she sees Rao's reaction.
Rao smiled broadly as if he were a demon. “I will kill my son.”
All the gods present felt their skin tingling, it was as if thousands of thorns were penetrating their skin.
Gaia opened her eyes wide.
"There are only two methods of getting me off the throne: I have to voluntarily hand over the throne to someone I think is worth replacing, or someone has to kill me ... But." Rao's pressure started to increase;his hair started to rise slightly as if defying gravity and a golden aura started to come out of his body and spread around.
Slowly his aura spread through the palace of Olympus and soon 'life' began to rise, a beautiful garden was being created in the palace on Mount Olympus with Rao in the center.
Gaia realized ... Not only did she, all the gods who were related to life realized that they could feel a huge divinity related to 'life'.
Rao smiled arrogantly: "Now, that is an impossible task."
