Chapter 25 The New King
No one dared to look at Cronus at this moment.
Even Hyperion and Oceanus, who had once had thoughts about the position of God King, remained silent at this moment.
Ouranos's curse before leaving was clearly heard by the gods.
If it were any other curse, they wouldn't take it to heart, but the one just now was different.
Not only because of the object of the curse, but also because it reminded them of the warning given by the being who was considered the God of Prophecy in the underworld hundreds of years ago.
"If you thrive by this, you will perish by this." Cronus used his son to seek his father and used swords to gain the throne. Does this also mean that he will be rebelled by his own children and lose his royal power by force?
No one knows, but no one can guarantee that this won't happen.
You must know that the position of God-King of the Heavenly Father was given by the world, so simple force cannot replace him. But if Cronus becomes the God-King, the throne gained through strength will no longer be endorsed by the world.
But no matter what, time does not stop because of the silence of the gods. When no god in the world raised any objection to Cronus' position as the God King, power began to shift to him.
Since there is no orthodox god-king recognized by the world, a leader recognized by the gods is barely feasible. If no one challenges Cronus within five hundred years, he will be the second generation god-king of Chaos.
During this period, although he could not fully enjoy the authority of the God King, the powerful power had begun to be transferred to him.
"Children, you have won."
In the silence, the scarred Earth Mother came from a distance.
In previous battles, she had suffered no less injuries than her own children. It's just that she didn't appear on the frontal battlefield, but constantly mobilized the power of the earth to block the pressing sky.
She also heard the curse just now, but she still acted like she didn't hear it.
At such a moment, she didn't want to worry about the unknown future.
Hearing this, all the gods reacted. They no longer had a sullen face, but began to celebrate the victory and Cronus's ascension to the throne.
No matter what they thought in their hearts, facing Cronus, the strongest among the Titans and holding a high-level artifact, they all expressed their recognition of his position as the God-King.
"You're right, Mother. We should have a banquet to celebrate today's victory."
Listening to the congratulations of the gods, Cronus forced a smile and said to the Titans.
"But I think we should deal with one more thing first, Cronus!"
Suddenly, Mnemosyne on the side spoke.
There was still blood all over her body, and the wounds slowly healed under the influence of divine power. She came from a pothole in the distance that she had made herself. But at this moment, Mnemosyne seemed to have forgotten the pain. She looked at her former brother and current eldest brother with anger on her face.
"That god of prophecy, that thief! He stole my [memory] priesthood."
"You all felt it. At the beginning of the battle, Chaos' consciousness revealed his disguise! He is the god of [spirituality], and he did things that made the world angry."
"We should punish him!" she said. "In Hades, where the consciousness of the world informs the gods."
"Yes, before celebrating victory, we should punish a sinner." Iapetus also supported.
He thought everyone would think so. After all, it was Ryan's prophecy that made everyone suffer. But unexpectedly, no one answered his words after him, and everyone looked a little embarrassed.
"Ahem, my brother." Hyperion said: "The consciousness of the world only appeared seven days ago. Even if we punish him now, we will not get a reward."
"Yes, Chaos's consciousness is always so rigid. When he completes his offense to the world, the world's 'reward' for him will be cancelled."
Tesis also echoed. This Titan's eldest sister rarely talks.
"But what about my priesthood?" Mnemosyne was a little confused.
Is there any need to discuss punishing a weak prophetic god? Even if there is no reward from the world, it would be better to simply use him to embody the majesty of the new divine court.
"I want him to be my god. The priesthood cannot be transferred, but it can be 'borrowed' between the main god and the subordinate god for a long time."
The corners of Cronus' mouth twitched. The priesthood cannot be transferred, which is what he thought at the beginning.
"But he is not as simple as we thought, Mnemosyne." The Lord of the Ocean seemed not to want to beat around the bush. He said directly to his sister: "Just seven days ago, when we were fighting Father God, the two people from the Land of Eternal Night went to Hades."
"The divine power of the two of you is too weak, so you cannot sense it. On the previous God's birthday, the two primitive ancient gods used their origin to speed up the birth of the new god. It is obvious that they are looking for trouble with the God of Spirituality."
Hearing this, Iapitus said no more. He understood what his brother meant. If the two primitive gods took action personally, or Ryan had been thrown into the abyss and accepted the punishment of the will of the world, then they would not be able to find anyone in the past.
Either the other party used some method to make the two gods of the dark night return without success. Then there is nothing they can do.
Including Gaia, all the gods here now combined are not enough for the Lord of Darkness to defeat with one hand.
After all, the opponent's power can compete with Uranus at his peak, and what they faced before was only the Heavenly Father whose power was greatly damaged, less than 30% to 50% of his peak power.
"That's it." Looking at his somewhat unwilling sister, Cronus didn't want to delay any longer.
If possible, he wanted to attack the guy who swallowed his origin more than anyone else, but now he could only give up.
Not to mention the other party's always mysterious style and the means to make the original god give in, the other party's prophecy alone made him sleepless.
He understood his father now. Heavenly Father has treated the Titans as toys countless times, but he has never touched Ryan once. This is the deterrent brought by the mysterious fate.
The other Titans didn't care. After all, they didn't ask Ryan for a prophecy, but Cronus was different. He began to regret, regretting why he asked Ryan about his future before. If he didn't know, at least he wouldn't be in the dilemma he is now.
"Let's go back to Odiles Mountain. Mother's creations are always so delicious."
His mood became a bit gloomy again, and the future God King who should have been in high spirits at this moment reluctantly made himself look happy, and then flew towards the sacred mountain first.
"Let's go, let's talk about the priesthood later."
After looking at her sister, Rhea, the only one who was somewhat aware of Cronus' state, also said.
Seeing everyone saying this, Mnemosyne had no choice but to bear it and chose to fly to the sacred mountain with the Titans.
She didn't dare to act on her own. Even the former Ryan was the God of Time with level 9 divine power, but he could fight more than she, the God of Language and Letters with level 8 divine power.
The gods left one after another. When the war between gods ended, the earth returned to peace. As time goes by, it slowly recovers from the damage it suffered.
Half a day later, the banquet celebrating the new king's accession to the throne began on Odiles Mountain.
