They forbid the revelation of the true names of any deity in the presence of mortals or when speaking with humans.
Once the other party's name is revealed, it essentially means that the two deities have completely abandoned their friendship and formed a bond of hatred.
Just like when Poseidon was fighting against Athena, he called out Athena's name directly.
If things continue like this, it means they will inevitably face a deadly battle.
Similarly, Hades and Zeus are the same today.
However, Hades laughed heartily upon hearing Zeus's words.
His laughter was heavy and shocking, like the violent beating of a giant drum from hell.
It unleashed a terrifying power that captivated everyone present, striking deep into their hearts.
Upon hearing this laughter, countless audience members involuntarily shrank their necks.
"Enrage you? Take it however you like."
"However, at least for now..."
The next second, Hades slowly extended an arm.
The black mist in front of him seemed to begin to surge uneasily the instant his palm opened.
A series of ethereal crimson flames suddenly surged forth from the darkness, rapidly converging towards the center of Hades' palm.
Several crimson flames intertwined and clashed, forming a crimson flaming spear in Hades' hand.
The gun barrel gleamed with a scarlet sheen, and its tip flashed with a cruel, sharp light.
Then, he aimed at the God-King in the sky, leaned back slightly, and pulled his arm, which was gripping the spear, back.
His muscles suddenly swelled and trembled, and his veins bulged out.
After he stomped on it, a terrifying power instantly filled his entire body.
With a sudden exertion, the already cracked ground beneath their feet trembled, creating a fissure several meters wide.
His breath emanated from Hades' chest, causing the black mist in front of him to surge and churn, shattered rocks to rise, and jumbled stones to swirl.
Overwhelmed by this sense of power, he gazed at the God-King in the sky and roared in fury:
"Get down here!"
Whoosh!
The body leans slightly forward, the movement as precise as throwing a javelin.
The arm holding the spear swung out suddenly, and the spear, wreathed in flames, was thrust out violently.
Bang!
The crimson spear seemed to tear through the darkness, its scarlet trajectory instantly piercing through the dense black mist.
The rapidly moving gun barrel stirred up a swirling gust of wind that roared out from beside Hades and violently struck the surrounding earth.
Buzz—
The sharp spear pierced the sky like a crimson meteor, igniting a burst of flames in mid-air.
Everyone stared wide-eyed, holding their breath as they watched Hades launch his attack, their emotions taut.
However, they were completely unable to see the speed of Hades' attack.
The sharp, piercing pain in their eardrums made everyone think that the God-King of the Sky would perform poorly as before, or even be injured.
Sudden,
Boom—
With a deafening roar in the clear sky, a beam of bright yellow lightning pierced through the azure sky and plummeted down.
Thump!
A clear impact sound reached their ears, causing everyone present to experience a slight blur in their vision.
The high-speed yellow lightning bolt struck the crimson spear, severing it abruptly.
The sudden, deafening thunderclap stunned everyone present, and countless spectators looked up at the sky.
The sun's brilliance still shone into their eyes, yet there wasn't a single black cloud in the deep sky; it was so clear it was almost pure.
Where did that bolt of lightning come from?
Thunder on a sunny day?
Then, everyone witnessed it.
At the point where the thunderbolt struck, Zeus held the trembling thunderbolt in one hand and his shield in the other.
The shield's interior was inlaid with a layer of goatskin, while the outer surface was decorated with distorted, twisting lightning bolts extending outwards.
At the very center of the shield is a swirling vortex resembling a storm.
At this moment, Zeus seemed to abandon all his previous peace and for the first time showed the human audience his wrath as the king of the gods.
The once clear sky turned violent in an instant, with dense arcs of electricity and howling, flashing thunder constantly intertwining.
An endless, giant net of electric arcs was formed, covering the entire sky above Shulburn.
Each bolt of lightning resembled a ferocious beast, roaring and leaping in the air, attempting to break through the sky and fall to the earth.
Now, the sky god-king's eyes are wide open in anger.
Boundless majesty and terror emanated from his crimson eyes, and his pale, heavy breaths howled and billowed amidst the swirling storm of thunder.
However, the illusion covering the body has not completely dissipated.
"My brother."
"You've successfully angered me."
Amidst the frenzied roar of thunder, Zeus straightened his chest.
The lightning bolt in his hand trembled violently, just as the double-headed spear shook in his grasp.
Now, Zeus, seemingly in the guise of a true god-king, proclaims to the entire world:
“I will tell you what it means to provoke a king of gods.”
"What price will we pay?"
