Because this is an apology from a deity.
As people's emotions gradually calmed down, everyone involuntarily focused their attention on this god-king.
They were puzzled, they were curious.
what happened?
Are the gods apologizing to humanity?
"The rumors about the golden apple were my own doing, stemming from my deep love for my wife."
Immediately afterwards, a hazy golden light slowly drifted down from the sky.
Like the light filtering through a dense forest at dawn, it gently fell upon Hera, illuminating her face.
The light illuminated the clear confusion in her eyes, and the helplessness she still felt.
"Yes, that's right, she is Hera, my wife."
Amidst the silence of countless people, Zeus took a deep breath and began to tell the rest of the story with deep emotion.
In fact, the Hera they see now is also a goddess.
She is one of the twelve Olympian gods, the Queen of Heaven who governs the powers of [birth] and [marriage]—
Hera.
However, due to a grave mistake, she was stripped of her divinity, fell to the mortal realm, and lost all her memories as a goddess.
His descent to the mortal realm was precisely to find his wandering wife, and he fabricated the legend of the golden apple to lure her out.
Just to see her one more time.
"The Golden Apple's selection was actually flawed; it did not choose the most beautiful woman in the world, but rather the most beautiful goddess in the world."
"Therefore, the golden apple chose my wife, a true goddess, Hera."
In the God-King's heartfelt explanation, he described himself as an unparalleled god who willingly descended to earth to find his wife because of love.
Furthermore, Zeus explained that the golden apple actually chose a 'god' rather than a 'man'.
This makes perfect sense as to why the Golden Apple chose Hera.
Because among those present, only Hera was a 'god'.
His recent apology to everyone significantly increased the credibility of the news.
While some remain skeptical of Zeus's claims, most are driven more by their emotions.
They were involuntarily moved by the story told by the God-King, their eyes reddening and tears streaming down their faces.
“I do not ask that you all forgive me completely, but even if you are forgiven, my act of deceiving you has already committed a grave mistake.”
"I only hope that you can forgive my wife, forgive Hera, who knew nothing about all this."
His heartfelt words left everyone present speechless.
Many people were moved to tears by Zeus's words, which stirred up their sadness and pity.
Now, in most people's minds, this god-king is regarded as a good male god who deeply loves his wife.
So much so that, upon careful consideration, countless people...
This doesn't seem like a big deal.
Although they were indeed angry at being deceived by the legend of the Golden Apple, it was only because they suspected there might be something sinister behind it.
After all, Golden Apple chose a woman that no one was familiar with, and anyone might feel dissatisfied.
However, no one questioned the authenticity of the "World's Greatest Martial Arts Tournament".
After all, those who can participate in the World Martial Arts Tournament are indeed recognized as strong.
Questioning? Then go and fight it out yourself!
At this moment, seeing how sincere the God-King's apology was, their doubts and dissatisfaction seemed to vanish.
Moreover, that's a god.
God apologizing to humanity is unprecedented in history.
For a moment, no one knew how to respond to this god-king.
However, the anger and jealousy in their hearts did indeed dissipate quite a bit after Zeus finished speaking.
Immediately afterwards, Zeus, the king of the gods, descended slowly from the sky in front of everyone, including Hades in the sky.
He appeared before Hera, his eyes still filled with tenderness, and said to his wife:
"Hera, my wife."
Would you marry me again?
Amidst everyone's surprised exclamations, no one noticed that two strangely colored lights were faintly glowing in a corner.
The demons of jealousy and rage have been withdrawn.
In a dark corner unseen by anyone, Victor extended an invisible hand.
With palms facing upwards, a floating magic tower rests silently in mid-air.
The magic tower was enveloped by two intersecting, differently colored magic rings, and the dazzling light made the surface of the entire magic tower appear to be undulating.
The light slowly faded, and Victor put the magic tower back down, gently lowered his raised leg, and stood up from the audience.
"It's safe."
"The twelve main gods are now complete."
Vega quickly took flight, flapping her wings and following Viktor a few meters away to minimize her presence, before asking:
"You did all this just to confirm whether Hera is truly the Queen of Heaven?"
"And while we're at it, force this arrogant god-king to apologize?"
"Of course not."
As Viktor slowly descended, he calmly replied:
"Hera represents faithful love."
He lowered his head, his deep gaze fixed on Hera.
Faced with the God King's marriage proposal, she seemed at a loss, her eyes filled with confusion.
Observing the scene before him, Viktor's lips curled up slightly, and he said softly:
Don't forget.
"Hera has always been mine."
