Greece: I am Zeus!

Chapter 33 Wisdom is all in!
Zeus smiled and said, "Honorable Oceanus, don't you think the ocean is too lonely?"

He said sincerely, “You bear the great responsibility of making the world stronger, yet you are doing the greatest things, while the gods of the ocean cannot enjoy the beauty and wonder of the world. This is truly unfair.”

"The ocean's unique nature makes it completely empty. Although the ocean is infinitely vast and magnificent, it is far too lonely. This is not an honor that you and your beloved children should enjoy!"

"The new laws created by the God-King are actually an opportunity, an opportunity for the ocean to merge with the world."

"I want to create an outer sea between the world and the ocean, a sea that, like an inner sea, can support life and be colorful, just like the prosperous world on earth."

"At that time, please let the god of the ocean reside in the open sea, so that we may enjoy this beautiful world together and be far away from this endless loneliness."

"Isn't it better for the sea and ocean to be integrated as a whole, coexisting side by side? Why must they be clearly separated and opposed to each other?"

Zeus looked at the two Titans with the most sincere eyes and uttered the most steadfast promise:
“Great Oceanus, beautiful and loving Thetis, before my mother goddess Holy Rhea, I promise to the two great Titans that I will guarantee all the honor of the Oceanus over the sea and the land, and share in all the honor of the sea, the land, the rivers, and the lakes!”

"In this new era, the world welcomes the arrival of the Ocean God without any restrictions; the ocean and the world will become one!"

Oceanus finally smiled from the bottom of his heart, very satisfied with the result.

Zeus's proposal perfectly resolved the loneliness and limitations of the ocean gods, and even painted a broader future for them.

Moreover, this plan also demonstrated Zeus's wisdom and character, which reassured Oceanus. At least Zeus was not a god who would harm the interests of another ally in order to gain an ally.

Only by cooperating with such a god can we be reliable.

Oceanus said, "O mighty Zeus, son of Rhea, queen of the gods, your heart and wisdom are admirable. You will surely become the greatest king of the gods, even surpassing the great Father and Cronus!"

"From this day forward, all the gods of the ocean will obey your command, and we will be your most loyal comrades!"

Zeus laughed and said, "Thank you for your support. With your support, we will surely build the most glorious new era, an unprecedented golden age!"

After saying this, Zeus smiled and said, "Your daughter, the beautiful goddess with bright eyes, Metis, whose wisdom is as stunning as her beauty, will be my most important friend. Therefore, I request that you allow her to stay by my side and help me."

Oceanus glanced at Metis, who had been listening quietly to everything, even when he heard Zeus's request, he remained silent and reserved.

Oceanus smiled slightly, looked at Zeus, nodded and said, "It is our ocean's honor to be able to help you, and we would be more than happy to do so."

Thetis smiled the gentlest and most beautiful smile, and spoke tenderly, "Now, let us fully enjoy this day, a day worthy of eternal celebration!"

"My dear Rhea, my dear Zeus, please taste the mead and delicacies of the ocean, and see how they differ from those of the rest of the world."

Tethys's warm words brought today's talks to a successful close.

The ocean currents have decided to go all in! They've really had enough of Cronus!
When Zeus left the ocean, he and Rhea had another god by their side: Metis, the embodiment of wisdom, who followed them quietly and calmly, like a still, deep pool.

Rhea had been chatting with Thetis and listening attentively to Oceanus and Zeus's conversation. She was extremely pleased and even felt moved by what she heard, as she also looked forward to a more prosperous and harmonious future.

She asked with a smile, "Zeus, where should we go next?"

Zeus smiled and replied, "Well," He looked at the silent Metis, "of course we should listen to the advice of the beautiful Metis."

Rhea looked at Zeus and Metis, her gaze sweeping over their faces, and understood.

Metis, upon hearing Zeus's words, pondered for a moment before speaking calmly, his voice as clear as a spring: "Go and see the deep sea."

“Pontos has always lived in unease. It won’t be difficult to gain His support. He will accept the new order you plan to establish.”

“His daughter, Eurybia, the power of the sea, is the wife of Crios, the framework of the universe. After Pontus expressed his support, Crios will be more inclined to favor you because of this relationship.”

"Crios and Eurybia's children are Astraeus, Pallas, and Perses, all powerful celestial gods, but under the current cosmic order, they are unable to obtain their own honor."

“My sister Styx, and several of Pallas’s children, were also forbidden from entering the world.”

Metis paused for a moment, then said, "If you are willing to grant them honor in the new era, that will be enough to win over Clio's support."

"Their eldest son, Astraeus, and Eos, the youngest daughter of Hyperion, the father of the heavens, had many stars and wind gods, and likewise, they could not enjoy the honors they deserved under the existing order."

"The children of Hyperion and the Holy Theia, the radiant gods Helios the sun and Semene the moon, were also forbidden to have their own honor in the world, and their radiance could not be fully displayed."

"With the support of Crios, the great god Hyperion and the Holy Theia will naturally support you as well."

"In this way, the foundation of the world, six of the twelve Titans (Rhea, Oceanus, Thetes, Crios, Hyperion, Theia) are now supporting you. Add to that your family, the Mother Goddess of All Things, the Dark Lady, and the support of Pontus, the god of the sea, and you will have enough to wage war head-on."

Rhea nodded repeatedly, her beautiful eyes sparkling with excitement, and the previously vague thoughts in her mind became incredibly clear.

She thought to herself with admiration, "No wonder Zeus wanted this child to stay by his side; he's truly amazing!"

Zeus clapped his hands in praise, his smile filled with joy and approval: "Truly worthy of being called the beautiful goddess of wisdom! Your wisdom is even more astonishing than your beauty!"

"Hearing the goddess's profound discourse today has truly cleared my mind and enlightened me. I have never had such a clear understanding of the situation before. It seems that victory is just around the corner!"

Metis gently shook her head, her voice still calm, offering a sobering warning: "All of this has one crucial premise: that you must not be defeated by the God-King, otherwise it will all be in vain."

"Even after gaining their support, they will not directly lend a helping hand. They have all sworn to the God-King that they will never betray him."

Zeus smiled confidently: "I don't need their direct help. The great gods only need to remain neutral, which is a form of help in itself."
