067. Timing
During that time, while Medusa was exploring contraceptive methods, she was also asking women from all directions who came to work and earn money to find out the entrance to the Temple of Destiny.
Medusa had to admit that she felt that there was indeed a thread of fate in the dark that was manipulating her life at will, but she had to find this thread and try to ask the three goddesses of fate why.
But unfortunately, fate is not something that ordinary people can touch, so there is still no clue about Medusa.
But at least Medusa's purpose has been achieved. While helping all women avoid becoming tools for reproduction, she also helped them gain the most important and sacred right of choice, which is something that the gods would never give to humans.
It is still unknown what impact this will have on the power of the gods, and we will have to wait and see what happens, but Medusa is very clear that this is just the beginning for them.
However, what Medusa didn't know was that while she was looking for the goddess of fate, the goddess of fate had also quietly set her sights on Medusa.
After being reminded again by Athena, the goddess of wisdom and war, the three goddesses were surprised to find that Medusa's fate not only did not follow the established track, but instead seemed to have unknowingly taken a completely different path. She even gained the faith of many humans and drew powerful strength from it!
This is impossible! Since the creation of the world, no God has ever been able to escape the arrangement of fate!
What's more, she is just a mortal? !
It is almost a shame for the three goddesses of fate to allow a human to have the opportunity to obtain such an honor.
So, the three goddesses of fate immediately put down their work and decided to step in personally to put Medusa's fate back on track.
…
Medusa was still sleeping at this time. Perhaps it was because she was in a very good mood because she was able to win back a victory from those powerful and high-ranking gods. In addition, she finally didn't have to conduct experiments with Perseus, so she slept very soundly this time.
Immersed in a sweet dream, Medusa naturally did not notice Perseus who was in pain and struggling beside her. Fortunately, he had woken up from that horrible yet real dream, and his breathing was particularly conspicuous in such a quiet space.
Everything that just happened... was it a dream?
Just as he was thinking this, Perseus suddenly noticed that in the room where faint moonlight was pouring in, a familiar dim silhouette was slowly walking towards them from the dark depths of the room. When the moonlight finally shone on the other person's face, Perseus was extremely terrified, but was surprised to find that he could not move.
No one would have thought that the glamorous king of gods, Zeus, would come to such a desolate and not very prosperous place. He should be enjoying the faith and offerings of mankind in all his glory, but at this moment, he was in the darkness, looking at Medusa in front of him with interest.
The king of gods Zeus is undoubtedly handsome, but his handsomeness is unique. It carries the unquestionable majesty of a ruler. His every move makes people and gods tremble with fear. At this moment, his deep and three-dimensional eye sockets are hidden in the shadows, but he lingers in love with him.
Medusa didn't know what she was dreaming about. She unconsciously let out a charming moan, her brows furrowed, as if she suddenly felt a little uneasy.
The powerful God-King only took this brief glance to feel that Perseus' betrayal seemed understandable, because when the God-King looked at the woman's face in the moonlight, he couldn't help but be moved.
This is not surprising, because Zeus has been attracted to many beautiful women and goddesses, which was mainly driven by the desire for reproduction, not any deep true feelings. However, the King of Gods also has standards, which means that Medusa's appearance is indeed not inferior to Zeus's other lovers.
Zeus looked at Perseus' eyes which were filled with fear, pleading, anger and pain, but he narrowed his eyes happily. He did not feel any guilt at all about possessing a sleeping beauty, because Zeus even liked to be fancy. So he gently raised his hand, and the next second Medusa's sleeping body floated towards Zeus.
However, what even Zeus, the king of gods, did not know was that Medusa, who was immersed in her dream and lost consciousness, suddenly felt a chill on the back of her neck. Her consciousness tried hard to wake her up, but her heavy body could not do it for some reason.
And in the next second, she suddenly felt a pair of strong arms tightly holding Medusa's slender yet plump body in their arms, and the other party's desire surged and burned her.
Medusa was not fully awake yet. She subconsciously thought it was Perseus and hummed a few times, but in the next second, a strange and extremely aggressive breath came towards her and kissed her lips forcefully and unquestionably, which made Medusa suddenly alert. However, Zeus' superb skills made her consciousness and body, which had finally awakened, lose strength again, making her like a pool of spring water about to melt.
'Medusa...Medusa.'
'Fulfill your vow.'
Deep in her mind, Tartarus' voice suddenly sounded for some reason. At the same time, Medusa shuddered. She hadn't met him in her dreams for a long time, so her consciousness suddenly became clear and she felt something unusual.
Who was it that was holding her and kissing her?
No, it wasn't Perseus, she knew him too well, but if not him, who could it be?
At this time, the king of gods Zeus naturally did not take Medusa's little struggle seriously. He sneered and decided to possess this liberator who he had long been curious about. Yes, perhaps he was deeply impressed by her when he first saw her because of Perseus. Even though she was once his brother's lover and had an unclear relationship with his offspring, she still easily aroused his greed.
But precisely because of this, Medusa's sins were even more unforgivable. She was clearly a powerful threat, so Zeus still chose to sentence her to death to punish her disrespect for the gods, but only after he possessed her.
But at the moment when Zeus tried to go further, her clear and deep dark purple eyes suddenly came into his sight. Her face was cold and angry, and at the same time her body suddenly became extremely bright. A power mixed with hope and faith suddenly burned the unprepared Zeus, so that even Zeus, who was as powerful as the King of Gods, could not help but let go of this woman immediately.
This was completely beyond Zeus's expectations, and it forced him to look squarely at the woman in front of him who had actually escaped his control.
In the heart of the king of gods Zeus, no one or any god could value power and status more than he did. In order to consolidate his position, he even ignored the feelings of his lover who was in the prime of her life and reluctantly married her to someone else. It can be said that he would do anything to achieve his goal.
The pure and profound power in Medusa's body made him suddenly deeply alert. Zeus couldn't help but feel sorry. It seemed that he would never be able to taste her. Because of this unknown threat, Zeus's reason prevailed and he had to kill her immediately.
On this side, although Medusa did not know who the man who suddenly broke in was, his familiar outline and extremely powerful strength made her have a very bad premonition.
The other party is obviously not Athena or Poseidon, but he is somewhat similar to Poseidon, and the other party's identity is almost obvious!
Perseus was asked to always carry the rusty sickle with him, because Medusa always remembered what Tartarus had said before, that Kronos' sickle was the last resort.
At this moment, facing the sudden appearance of the God King Zeus who obviously had bad intentions, this was obviously the time to use the last resort to protect himself!
So, she quickly turned her head to look at Perseus, who was lying on the ground struggling in pain with red eyes, and stretched out her hand to control the sickle to fly towards him. The power in Medusa's body had become much stronger than at the beginning, and she threw the weapon into Perseus's hand accurately.
The sickle suddenly cracked at this moment, and golden light shone through the rust. Perseus' body seemed to be suddenly injected with infinite power, and he roared and broke through the ban issued by the god king Zeus.
Perseus, who had resumed his actions, was no longer able to think independently because of his anger. At this moment, facing the scene where Medusa was almost humiliated by his despicable father, the God King, and the death of his mother, his heart was filled with strong hatred and humiliation, and he willingly became her sharpest weapon.
When Perseus grasped the sickle, the rust on his hand fell off completely. His eyes were cold but filled with strength. His golden curly hair and clothes fluttered violently in the sudden airflow. At the same time, golden light penetrated the entire house, poured out through the windows, and almost lit up the entire island!
This is the most powerful weapon created by Gaia, the mother of gods and goddess of the earth, to kill Uranus, the first king of heaven!
If Zeus was only secretly shocked by Medusa's power before, then even the current king of gods, the majestic and dignified son of Kronos, Zeus, immediately changed his expression after seeing this weapon, and even widened his eyes in disbelief.
This sickle should have been imprisoned with his father, Kronos, in the abyss of his immense trust, in Tartarus, a place that never meddles in the affairs of the gods. But how did it end up in the hands of mortals like them, half-human, half-gods?!
Suddenly, Medusa's hoarse yet pleasant voice rang in the ears of Perseus and Zeus, echoing in the quiet, dark yet tense atmosphere. Her beautiful and graceful figure was outlined in the strong wind, her purple hair was scattered by the strong airflow, her eyes were full of determination and conviction, and contained infinite power, and she spoke word by word.
"Perseus, I once heard a prophecy. It's rumored that all the God Kings of the past were cursed and would be overthrown by their own sons..."
"He insulted your mother and almost insulted me too."
"Although you are only a demigod, you are also his son. For your mother, for me..."
“—Let Him pay the price.”
Medusa no longer believes in fate, but she knows best how to irritate her opponent, which is to bring about the things that the opponent cares about most, causing a heavy blow and concerns to the opponent.
As expected, the face of the God King Zeus changed from ugly to gloomy. He looked at Medusa and Perseus as if he was looking at a dead person, wishing to kill them immediately.
After what had just happened, Perseus, knowing that he had been exposed, was no longer afraid, even though he had to face his father, the king of gods Zeus.
When Perseus raised this powerful sickle, he felt the power in his body growing stronger and stronger. He even felt that the pressure exerted by Zeus on him was almost ineffective.
He is still powerful, but not as intimidating as he thought before.
Especially when Perseus thought of Zeus's previous despicable behavior towards Medusa and his mother Danae who was implicated and died, he jumped high in pain and rushed towards his father, the king of gods Zeus, resolutely.
