Greece: Zeus made me the queen of heaven?

Chapter 338: Mount Olympus also needs to avoid suspicion

"Happy! So happy!"

Ares, who had reassembled his body, dragged his blood-red sword and strode back to the seat of the gods.

The way she holds her head high and chest out, if you don’t know her, you might think she is a winner, returning in glory.

The deformed and broken blood blade was dragged behind him, and his body returned to its normal size.

Because all the armor had been melted into weapons, Ares was naked at this moment, but she didn't care and still stood there carefree.

Hera couldn't bear it anymore, so she ordered Hebe to cover the fool with some cloth.

After such a fierce and exciting battle, Ares seemed a little different.

If she was a mad dog before, she is a vicious dog now.

Although it is still biting and ferocious, it is somewhat different.

Even Hephaestus did not open his mouth to mock Ares' failure, but carefully observed her changes.

"Why are you all looking at me like that? I just lost a game."

Ares sat down carelessly, not caring about the looks of other gods.

"Although I'm very upset about losing, the fight was really enjoyable. It made me like him a little bit."

Hearing these words, Eros, who had just fallen from the sky, almost felt dizzy.

So this skill only calculates one-sided relationships, as long as the other party's favorability is high enough, right?

Ares is such a masochist. He can still say such things even after being trash-talked and beaten by him.

Eros had a gloomy face. His originally happy mood instantly turned sour after being so passionately "confessed" by Ares.

"Okay, let's all be quiet for a moment."

Zeus spoke, stopping the gods from talking and whispering, and began to speak.

"Now that the last group has finished, it's almost time to wrap up this event."

The other opponents had already finished their fights. Some were just friendly matches, while some had old grudges and fought fiercely, leaving their faces scratched.

Eros felt a little regretful that he couldn't sit in the audience and watch this exciting fight between the goddesses, but now it's all over.

However, this grand event that brought together all the gods of the Greek world has finally come to an end.

Zeus began to summarize the entire event, and all the gods and humans in the arena bowed their heads and listened attentively.

"Today's grand occasion is inseparable from your hard work."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he started speaking clichés.

Zeus summarized three indispensable aspects, four key points, praised five achievements of this event, and expressed six expectations.

Finally, it was decided that the Olympic Games would be held every four years as an activity to worship the gods.

The event can be hosted by any city-state capable of hosting it, with no restrictions on location.

This move is also intended to more closely connect the city-states scattered across Greece.

After summarizing all these things, Zeus finally mentioned the matter of rewards.

"This event is the best among you."

As he said this, all the participating demigods felt that invisible yet present gaze sweeping over them.

From inside to outside, it felt like even the thoughts in my mind were seen clearly by His Majesty the God King.

They didn't have any big ideas. After all, after these few days, there were no other candidates for the most outstanding demigod.

In the eyes of almost all gods, Minos was naturally the candidate who would finally win Zeus' reward in this event.

As the son of Zeus, Minos is far ahead in most projects. Although it may be suspected that he has connections, who cares?
They even wished that they were the sons of the powerful Zeus and could enjoy the glory and power of the King of Gods.

But, someone does care.

"In this event, Minos, as the king of Crete, indeed performed the best and was the most favored by the gods."

"But since she is my offspring, I should avoid suspicion, so I should choose another person under her as the winner of this event."

Zeus' words were unexpected by many gods and men.

While no one else cared, Zeus cared about this matter and maintained his image as a just and perfect philosopher king.

"At the same time, in order to prevent this from happening again, those whose bloodline originates from Mount Olympus will not be allowed to participate in future Olympic Games."

"As my child, she should have her own path and make great achievements. She doesn't need to rely on you to set the stage for her."

All humans were stunned at first, and then there was a constant stream of praise and singing.

Zeus not only expressed his determination to maintain fairness, but also praised himself so that none of the gods could find any fault with him.

There's nothing wrong with that. It's indeed a dimensionality reduction attack for the son of Zeus to participate in this kind of competition.

After all, this kind of event is meant to stimulate and inspire mankind. If there are no restrictions, who would want to play with the Son of the King of Gods?

"Minos, do you have any objection?"

Finally, Zeus asked Minos for his opinion, after all, he was denying someone else's honor.

However, Zeus' words "Everyone has his own way" had already calmed Minos down in advance.

Wearing the Taurus Cloth, Minos lowered his head slightly with a serious expression.

"Of course I have no objection. Everything is subject to your will, Father God."

For Minos, she had proved herself to all the gods and gained the recognition from her father and the father god.

As for the final fame and reward, Minos didn't care.

But Eros cares!
When Eros heard Zeus's arrangement, the one who was most concerned was Eros.

After all, the reward is a perfect human form created by the gods, the epitome of temptation, Pandora.

Eros was thinking about the beauty, so how could he let her fly away like that?
But since Zeus said so and his good daughter did not object, Eros could only acquiesce and make other plans.

"In that case, then the champion this time should be you."

A ray of light shone down from the clouds and illuminated a place among the crowd. Several little angels flew down, playing cheerful tunes and holding a bouquet of olive branches.

"King of Corinth, Sisyphus, you have excellent wisdom and courage. This crown and honor should belong to you."

The person who was ranked second overall, below Minos, was none other than Sisyphus, who was rated as a dog and a donkey by Eros.

Among all the demigods, he relied on his resourcefulness and won the most places after excluding Minos.

Eros was not surprised by this result.

Just from the cleverness of Sisyphus in the archery competition, we can see that he is very good at using these external conditions to assist himself.

Among the many demigods, many are powerful, but not many are smart.

Sisyphus, who encountered an unexpected surprise, showed a hint of joy on his face, but he restrained it the next moment.

Before he could even say a few humble words, Zeus had already bestowed upon him the reward.

A faint light descended from the sky like a ladder to heaven, and a slender and beautiful figure slowly walked down.

It is like a gift from the gods to mankind, descending from heaven to earth.

　The end of this paragraph made me think about who I should give birth to. It's time to give birth to Perseus, Bacchus, and Cupid.
