章節 200: Chapter 39 Hephaestus

Mount Olympus, within the Queen of Gods' bedchamber.

The golden crown wobbled, Hera's chest heaved with intense agitation, and the air around her distorted under the force she unconsciously released.

Especially after learning the mysteries of faith, she believed she could reign eternally with Zeus, instead of fading away like the two generations of divine kings before them.

But now, she found her previous thoughts to be laughable.

The Divine King had never broken his promise; he truly shared everything with Hera, but he would never seal his words permanently, just like now.
