Greece: I am Zeus!

Chapter 82 What rebellion? This is an uprising! (Please continue reading~)

"Beautiful, holy, flawless, and righteous Themis, please forgive my lapse, but I am truly overwhelmed with emotion at this moment. You are the embodiment of justice, the manifestation of the greatest order in the universe."

"You are holy and radiant, upright and righteous. You are so beautiful, so noble, so flawless. You have always been honest and just. You are the most beautiful god in the universe, and also the kindest and most just god."

"I can only trust you, I can only rely on you."

"Only with you always by my side, constantly supervising, urging, assisting and advising me, can I ensure that I do not make mistakes. Only with you sitting beside the throne of the God-King can the God-King truly govern the universe well."

"Therefore I have come to see you today not so that you may help me achieve final victory in the war. I know that would be against your principles, and how could I force justice to do unjust things?"

"I just hope you can promise me that after I achieve final victory in this war, you will come to my side and help me stabilize the universe, bringing true order and eternal peace to it."

Themis was truly moved at that moment.

Everything Zeus promised completely fulfilled all her deepest desires.

More importantly, there was no bargaining involved, and she didn't need to make any compromises.

Even the wise and benevolent god-king Cronus had never shown her such utmost respect.

Everything Zeus said deeply touched her heart, and the blueprint for order that Zeus set forth made her yearn for it.

She couldn't help but sigh inwardly: The son of Cronus is truly virtuous, and speaks so kindly; he is truly different from his father!
Zeus, of course, had no intention of squeezing toothpaste or haggling.

To uphold justice and win justice, one must be straightforward and upright.

Justice is not folly; justice is simply upholding the hope for a better future.

Trying to outsmart justice is really not smart.

The apparent abandonment of dictatorial power is actually because it was never meant to be.

Moreover, relinquishing power does not mean relinquishing strength.

When power is strong enough, authority will naturally follow.

Justice will never yield to injustice!
However, justice can be used wisely and guided toward the right goal.

Just like any order, there are flaws.

Furthermore, there is no perfect order in the world, only an order that is constantly being improved.

As guardians of order, as long as the order of the universe does not collapse to the point of completely losing its core of justice, the defenders of order will always be Zeus's most capable and loyal assistants!
However, even justice can be deceived.

Then, the wise Themis gazed at Zeus with her golden eyes and finally asked, "Your Majesty Zeus, future King of the Gods, I have never heard of such a broad mind as yours; and I deeply admire your divine purity."

"However, how can you guarantee that the promises made today will truly be fulfilled in the future?"

Upon hearing this, Zeus smiled and said, "Beautiful Themis, after I win this great war, all the gods of the universe will gather at Olympus."

"At that time, I will sincerely invite you to come. In that solemn moment, I will personally establish the order of the universe before the gods and share the supreme honor of the universe with them."

"If my actions then deviated from my words today, then please criticize me mercilessly in the name of justice."

"And now, in the name of the Mother Goddess Rhea, and in my own name, I solemnly request to swear in the name of justice that everything I say today is true, without any falsehood!" Upon hearing this heartfelt oath, Themis's flawless face finally showed an expression of approval.

She slowly rose and bowed slightly to Zeus in reverence: "Respected Zeus, in the future, when you have truly established that sacred and just order, I will surely go to Olympus to assist you, stay by your side, and obey your sacred order and will."

Zeus also rose to respond, his eyes sparkling with joy and anticipation: "Beautiful Themis, this day will come soon."

"Olympus will always welcome you, and I eagerly await your arrival."

"Only when you stand atop Olympus can Olympus truly become the center of order in the universe. Only when you uphold the justice of the universe can the universe truly blossom with beauty."

Zeus, a smile playing on his lips, added, "Just as beautiful as you are."

Upon hearing this, Themis smiled slightly and replied, "Your esteemed son of the Queen of Gods, the future King of Gods, the universe will only be truly beautiful under your rule."

After Zeus left, Themis pondered quietly in the temple for a long time, weighing the various possibilities for the future.

Finally, she gritted her teeth and made up her mind.

She immediately used her supreme authority over order, in the name of absolute justice and fairness, to solemnly judge the existing order of Cronus as "corrupt and erroneous"!
Although she did not explicitly express her support for Zeus, her actions spoke volumes.

She cannot betray the principles of order to blindly support an unknown future.

Even though the future that Zeus depicted for her was so beautiful and full of hope.

However, having seen that bright hope, she resolutely chose to stand firmly on the opposite side of corruption and injustice!

Meanwhile, back on Mount Otyrus, Cronus, still brooding alone, suddenly felt a strong sense of rejection from the entire universe towards its own order.

Even though He was the supreme god-king, He felt a dizzying sensation of divinity at this moment, and His tall and majestic body almost lost its balance.

"Themis!!!"

The God-King's roar, filled with boundless shock and rage, resounded throughout the entire world.

The Coeus couple, whose faces were already cold, were even more shocked.

The couple exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with despair.

Iapetus remained silent in shock, only clenching his fists.

At this moment, the entire universe felt the collapse of the God-King's order.

Everything in the universe rejects this rule, which the goddess of divine order has deemed erroneous.

Crios, who was the framework of the universe, was overjoyed and immediately gave Cronus's crumbling order another hard push.

As one of the embodiments of the most fundamental laws of the universe, He cooperated with Themis, who governs the order of the universe, and exercised His authority.

With the combined efforts of the two Titans, who embody the most fundamental laws of the universe, the legitimacy of King Cronus's rule has been challenged like never before.

This is completely different from Zeus's rebellious nature.

Although order and justice have not yet clearly sided with Zeus, Zeus's rebellion has now gained unquestionable rationality and legitimacy!
