In Lia's heart, the once selfless, just, and righteous image of the gods remained a sacred filter.
After witnessing these chaotic and monstrous gods with her own eyes today, her spirit has been completely shattered.
However, she remained curious about the exact nature of the feud between Zeus and Hades.
They are brothers, yet they hate each other to the point of life and death.
Even the feud between her and Victor didn't reach this level, did it?
Lia recalls the various grievances between her and Victor.
But then, some things she shouldn't have been thinking about welled up in her mind.
Her face flushed slightly, her cheeks burning bright red like a ripe apple, and she even felt a little guilty.
After a light cough, she still asked Persephone the question.
But then:
"brother?"
Upon hearing this question, Persephone's expression turned somewhat strange.
Then he looked up at Zeus in the sky, crossed his arms, and shrugged helplessly.
"So what? Zeus is still my father."
Liya: "!?"
These words caused Leah's brain to freeze for several seconds.
Then she came to her senses and stared at the other person with wide eyes in horror.
She carefully considered what Persephone had said earlier.
Did Zeus ever want to attack Persephone?
It's like being born!
Finally, she was rescued by Hades and became his wife.
According to seniority, doesn't this mean...?
Persephone was Hades' niece?
It's been born!
Overwhelmed by a sense of confusion, Leah was at a loss for words.
Fortunately, Persephone quickly added:
"This 'brother' is actually more of a nominal title."
Persephone scoffed dismissively and curled his lip.
"Although they call themselves brothers, they are not even related by blood. Do you really think they are blood brothers?"
"Their parents are not the same."
Looking at Lia's face, which showed both shock and confusion, Persephone smiled and said to her:
"Yes, just like you and Viktor."
Lia paused for a moment, then, realizing the meaning behind Persephone's words, hurriedly explained:
"No, don't talk nonsense! Viktor and I don't have that kind of relationship!"
The Duke of Reeves was also listening nearby. If this got out, how could she ever hold her head high in front of others?
But Lia still sensed Rivera's questioning gaze beside her.
Nevertheless, she still felt somewhat bewildered.
So even gods have parents?
Persephone smiled gently and stopped joking with Lia.
She sat upright, her eyes showing a hint of seriousness, and turned to look at Zeus in the sky.
He gave a cold laugh and said:
"In short, Hades and I share the same idea."
"To completely destroy a true god."
“Defaming it is more effective than stripping it of its faith.”
Lia listened in a daze, then turned her head to look around.
Hearing the growing indignation of the crowd around him, all of them relentlessly slandering Zeus in the sky.
"He doesn't deserve to be called the God-King at all. He doesn't even spare his own brothers and children. He's truly heartless."
"We actually believed in such a god? We were blind."
"He calls himself the God-King, but I think he's not even worth dog shit!"
The voices of resentment grew louder and louder until they echoed throughout the entire audience, becoming incredibly noisy.
These words were not only heard by Leah.
Zeus, high in the sky, can hear even more sounds.
Because this global live broadcast involves more than just the millions of viewers around us.
And people scattered in every corner of the world are also insulting this mad sky god-king.
The constant stream of slanderous words echoed in Zeus's ears, disturbing his peace of mind.
As for the gods, they can hear the prayers of human faith, and they can also feel the slanderous voices of human disgust.
Now, these mingled sounds were like a wall of blades pressing down on Zeus from all directions.
Zeus, high in the sky, felt increasingly pained, and even his enormous cloud-covered face seemed to collapse and begin to decay.
The shimmering yellow lightning and flashing arcs flowing across the sky became intermittent.
Each bolt of lightning he struck seemed increasingly terrifying.
Click—!
The dark purple lightning, weakened by its reduced resistance, tore through the sky and pierced through Zeus's enormous head.
Bright light illuminated the sky.
At the same time, his body, which consisted of only a head, was completely exposed to the view of all the audience.
His mouth was wide open, but the lips had been lost due to decay.
His eyes had also lost their pupils, becoming completely empty, leaving only deep darkness and flowing scarlet blood tears.
Blood streaked across the sky like a rain shower, falling onto the barrier in front of countless spectators and soaking the arena floor.
He opened his empty, toothless, and even lipless mouth, struggling to move his vocal cords, uttering a hoarse and low, withered sound.
“Lowly…lowly…”
“You lowly…humans…”
He suddenly tilted his head back, letting the fleeting, dark purple lightning expose his blood-stained, hollow face to everyone.
The crimson blood flowing through the stark white bones, and the grotesque decay, appeared particularly chilling under the light.
