章節 136: Chapter 136: Aether, Hemera, Hypnos, Thanatos, Keres, Eris
The forging of Hades' divine artifact began.
On the other side.
"Aether!" Hemera walked step by step towards her brother, her voice ethereal and calm. "How are the preparations going?"
Aether nodded gently, smiling at his sister. "Everything is ready. Now, we just wait for them to take the bait."
"Are you sure there are no issues?" Hemera frowned slightly, her voice soft. "Although it seems well-prepared, Zeus..."
"Moreover, Metis is the goddess of wisdom. If she notices anything, it could be troublesome."
"No worries!" Aether shook his head gently, explaining, "Hemera, a woman's jealousy is very powerful. Once caught in the whirlpool of jealousy, problems naturally arise. As for subsequent matters, Metis might be special, but Zeus is still no match for Lord Hades."
"That's true," Hemera nodded, then smiled teasingly. "Aether, what's this about a woman's jealousy?"
"..." Aether looked at his sister's teasing smile and realized he had implicated her in his statement about jealousy. He wisely chose to remain silent.
Don't explain! Don't argue! With women, either coax them or wait for them to cool off.
"Haha~~~" Hemera smiled and shook her head, her tone peaceful. "Never mind, it's not a big deal. But Aether, we must double-check the plan. If anything happens to our sister, it wouldn't be good."
"Of course!" Aether said seriously. "I've prepared thoroughly. I won't let our sister fall into danger!"
Aether and Hemera were discussing how to deal with Metis. Yes, as siblings of Hypnos and Thanatos, their thoughts were aligned—they needed to get rid of Metis and Prometheus.
The combination of the goddess of wisdom and the god of wisdom was too dangerous. After the Titan War, Zeus, with this combination, would be their greatest enemy. Before that, they needed to weaken the opposition as much as possible.
Clearly, not only were Prometheus and Metis planning to weaken their opponents before the end of the Titan War, but Hades' followers were also strategizing on how to weaken the opposition.
Both sides were evenly matched, and this was not surprising.
After all, everyone understood clearly that their greatest opponents were each other. As for the Titan War, as long as nothing went wrong, victory was assured. Both sides had absolute confidence in their leaders, Lord Hades and Lord Zeus.
Aether pondered a bit more and continued, "Although it seems foolproof, we must still consider all possibilities and prepare many contingencies. We don't need to rush; we can take our time arranging everything."
"It better be so!" Hemera said with a touch of worry.
After all, that was their sister. How could they not be concerned?
Erebus and Nyx were a loving couple, and they cared deeply for their children. Naturally, the children had strong bonds with each other.
"Brother! Sister!" Hypnos and Thanatos, the Twin Gods, walked quickly over. Hypnos asked, "How are the preparations going?"
"Everything is ready," Aether nodded. "I've had Keres pluck the strings of fate. While it won't affect the king of the gods, it will influence goddesses like Hera and Metis."
Thanatos added seriously, "The plan is one thing, but we must also ensure our sister's safety. Keres' safety is equally important; manipulating the strings of fate is not easy."
"I understand." Aether smiled and nodded.
Of course, he had prepared thoroughly. After all, that was his sister. Would he not value her safety?
The four gods discussed the matter further and then left one after another.
Aether and Keres left the Underworld, heading to a special place.
Here, a goddess was being nurtured. As time passed, she seemed to sense something, slowly opening her eyes and smiling strangely. "Aether, Keres, you have arrived."
"Eris!" The siblings looked at the goddess before them.
Eris, the goddess of strife and discord.
She had incited the Trojan War and was no weak deity. She was Nyx's daughter, born solely from Nyx. Eris was unique in that she absorbed discord to gain strength, mastering the law of strife without practicing it herself. Instead, she grew stronger by absorbing conflict. In a peaceful world, she could never progress.
During the Trojan War, Eris had elevated herself to a level comparable to Athena. Although she ultimately failed, it showed how formidable she could become by absorbing enough discord. Currently, she was still being nurtured and needed time to fully emerge.
