The gods present were indeed frightened by this mortal's methods, but they forgot one thing.
That is, they are gods.
Why is this human being able to touch them?
"You only realized it now? Sigh."
Victor sighed.
He was somewhat worried about the intelligence of these gods, but he did not answer directly.
Instead, they turned their gaze to the God of Fire, who was sitting silently in a corner of the palace and had already revealed the secret of the pupils just now.
"Why don't you explain it to them?"
Upon hearing this, even the usually taciturn Vulcan raised his head.
By the light of the fire, he looked over at the crowd.
His thick, jet-black beard was tangled together, almost covering most of his face.
Like a clump of wildly growing shrubs, the ends of its whiskers even still have sparks.
Then, he spoke slowly, his voice as deep as clashing steel:
"Haven't you realized it yet?"
"We are gods, yet we possess human emotions."
Whoosh!
As soon as he finished speaking, all the gods present were stunned into silence.
Even the God of War, who had been knocked away and embedded in the wall, was included.
He struggled to regain consciousness, his face filled with disbelief.
It seems that's true.
From the very beginning, the God of War was filled with boundless rage, even smashing a table with a single blow.
Cupid, on the other hand, reveals his flirtation and admiration for other male gods almost without reservation.
And the surprise and anticipation that the goddess of wisdom showed after devising a clever way to deal with the enemy.
Yes, every god is aware of this.
The lofty, divine nature seems to have disappeared, replaced by human-like emotions and thoughts.
Of course, their habits as gods are still reflected in their behavior, and their sense of superiority is still faintly visible.
These gods finally realized that they were no longer the gods they once were.
Although it still possesses the consciousness of God.
But they have lost the privileges of being gods.
"We...became human?"
The goddess of wisdom murmured softly, anxiously glancing at the god of fire beside her, and asked urgently:
"How did you find out... uh, I'm sorry."
She seemed to have thought of something, glancing at the still dazed Cupid, then at the war god who had been blasted away and was trapped in the wall.
It's common knowledge that these two gods have an affair.
Of course, most importantly,
This goddess of love is the companion of the god of fire.
The feeling of betrayal is clearly far stronger than any other emotion.
The moment Vulcan fell to Earth, he felt this intense discomfort.
No wonder he remained silent; it's truly a sad story.
"It doesn't matter."
What she received in return was a low, somber reply, leaving no one able to guess what Vulcan was really thinking.
Indeed, although it was uncomfortable, as a god, the god of fire had long been used to it.
Soon, the goddess of wisdom accepted this reality and turned back to Victor with a serious expression, continuing her inquiry:
"How...did you do that?"
"Before answering your question, I think you should answer mine first."
Viktor sat up straight, his hands gently outstretched, maintaining his air of mystery and authority, and calmly said:
"Remember, you belong to me now, so this is not a request."
"It is an order."
This tough stance startled both the God of Light and the Goddess of the Hunt, who had remained silent until now.
The two took a few steps back, their lips tightly pressed together, not daring to utter a sound.
Only the goddess of wisdom could maintain her sanity.
She knew she could no longer negotiate with the other party, and could only reluctantly agree to their demands, bracing herself to ask:
What do you want to know?
"The matter of the 'virus,' and your longing to 'go home.'"
Seeing that the goddess of wisdom's expression was gradually becoming somewhat troubled, Victor slowly stood up.
Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, he slowly walked to the goddess of wisdom.
Because of the height difference between them, the goddess of wisdom had to look up to meet Victor's gaze.
However, as the other party drew closer, the goddess of wisdom gradually became frightened and instinctively wanted to retreat.
But Viktor quickly reached out and suddenly pulled her into a tight embrace.
The goddess of wisdom was startled and instinctively tried to push Victor away in fear, but he grabbed her chin tightly with his other hand.
At this moment, everyone stared in shock, witnessing this scene, especially Cupid from before.
Feeling the struggle in his arms, Victor forced the goddess of wisdom to lift her head, compelling her to look him directly in the eye.
“Athena, right?”
The next moment, all the surrounding gods froze in place, their pupils filled with clear shock and confusion.
Even the goddess of wisdom, who was addressed by her name, widened her eyes and stopped struggling.
She let him hold her in his arms.
"I know everything about you, so..."
"Don't try to hide anything from me."
Seeing that the goddess of wisdom was gradually becoming compliant, Victor finally released his grip on her chin.
He then gently pinched her cheek, as if admiring a work of art he had created.
"There's one more thing, I admire your chastity as a goddess."
"Perform better."
As he finished speaking, Victor withdrew his hand, gently caressed the face of the goddess of wisdom with both hands, and slowly lowered his head.
At that moment, he resembled a true priest.
He gently kissed the forehead of the goddess of wisdom, that black, empty eye.
As Victor's lips touched that dark eyeball.
A warm current flowed from his lips and into the depths of his black eyes.
The goddess of wisdom was slightly taken aback, but did not resist.
She simply felt the strange warmth flowing into her forehead, spreading throughout her body via her bloodstream, and penetrating deep into her heart.
She could feel it enveloped in warmth and comfort.
Within her body, a peculiar power, distinct from divine power, was emerging, filling her with strength.
Viktor straightened up again amidst her stiff and dazed reaction.
Gazing at the goddess of wisdom who was gradually losing her resistance, especially at the slightly bright eyes on her forehead, he smiled and said:
"At least this way, I won't treat you unfairly."
