Greece: Zeus made me the queen of heaven?

Chapter 416 Metis Mode, Activated
"You know what I'm going to say, right?"

After greeting in a direct yet complicated way, Eros spoke very straightforwardly.

She couldn't change the subject for Zeus, otherwise she would transform herself into the Riddler again.

Eros was more familiar with this method of delaying time and changing the subject than anyone else.

Because that's what he did.

"Tsk, long time no see, is this the first thing you say when you come here?"

If there is any difference between Zeus in Dione mode, it is that she is not so calm and rational.

As the King of Gods, her every move reveals overflowing confidence. Even if others don't understand, they will only think that there is another deeper meaning.

The perfect commander, the king of gods, victory and power were born for her.

But as Dione, she was just an ordinary Oceanid, with the gentleness of an Oceanid and the enthusiasm of a young girl.

This is the side of God. You can only experience different feelings from different angles.

Eros did not change his mind because of Zeus's reproachful tone. He just pinched her waist with one hand and continued speaking.

"Don't interrupt me. Don't I even know how many people have secretly peeped at me?"

Seeing that Eros looked serious and seemed very concerned about the matter, Zeus could no longer avoid the question.

Although she thinks this kind of thing is quite normal.

After all, the gods are very idle, and from Mount Olympus, they can easily see what is happening on the earth.

"Okay, let me think about it. How should I tell you about this?"

Zeus scratched his head in distress.

"I'm not very good at explaining things, so let someone else tell you."

Riddles are a habit. It is very difficult for a riddle teller to explain things clearly to others.

Fortunately, Zeus has a solution.

She clapped her hands lightly, and her brilliant golden hair changed instantly, and her whole demeanor also sank.

The youthfulness that was originally overflowing like that of a girl has become more restrained and profound.

Zeus opened his eyes again with his long black hair hanging down, and lost some of his enthusiasm. Instead, he slowly tied up his hair.

"Well, this should be the first time we meet. Hello, Eros, the god of love."

Zeus' voice also became more mature and steady, with a strong scholarly flavor.

Zeus stared at Eros with his dark, clear eyes. Except for his appearance and figure, he looked completely different.

"Goddess Emmetus?"

Eros' mind was working rapidly, and it was not difficult for him to guess the personality that had suddenly reappeared in Zeus.

"It seems that you also possess a certain degree of wisdom, rather than being a reckless man."

Metis smiled slightly, confirming Eros's guess.

She was indeed Zeus' first wife, Metis, the first goddess of wisdom who was swallowed by Zeus, and the mother of Athena.

However, she was not ruthlessly swallowed by Zeus and completely disappeared as many people speculated.

It was obvious that she was fine and didn't seem to mind her current situation at all.

"It's just a reasonable guess, not wisdom."

Eros was not sure what state Metis was in at the moment, so he spoke carefully.

Did she stay in Zeus's brain after being swallowed by Zeus, or is she another aspect of Zeus' personality and divinity?

If it was the former, the goddess of wisdom might be upset with Eros. If it was the latter, it would be fine.

"Don't worry, I have no problem with you. You can also treat Zeus and I as the same being."

Seeing Eros' inner thoughts, Metis said very calmly.

"I belong to Zeus completely. There is no difference between us. There is no closer bond in the world than this."

When saying this, Eros could even hear a hint of joy in Metis' tone.

The real wisdom belongs only to the great Almighty God King.

Although it is a bit complicated, Eros does not need to think too much about it. He just needs to know that Metis is now another image of Zeus.

Okay, okay, Zeus, who remained silent, thought it was just a small problem like the Riddler.

It turns out that she is actually the one with the most serious illness among the God King's family, right?

He has multiple personalities, and one of them has extreme narcissistic tendencies, and there is even the possibility of him having multiple daughters.

"Don't look at me like that, we are all the same."

Metis glanced at Eros and regained her calm tone.

"You've already figured it out, haven't you? Primal gods of love and lust, we are all the same."

Although her words were somewhat ambiguous, Eros understood her meaning quite well.

Names, no matter in what world they are in, are full of mystery.

When the myths are connected together, two names that may have been unrelated are also closely linked together.

In the esoteric system, Zeus devoured the first creator god, Phanes, who had several names.

Phanes (light), Prodognos (primordial), Metis (wisdom), Elikopaos (impulse), Pan (all), Eros (lust).

Eros had long known that because of this connection, he and Zeus had become inseparable, even like one.

But knowing it and now showing it in person by Metis is another matter.

"So you guys are trying to piece together Phanes?"

Eros asked curiously, but Metis denied it decisively.

"No, Phanes is only the original of the past. His original glory no longer needs to be restored. Now there is only Zeus, and only Zeus."

"If I were to put it in a simpler way, Phanes was Zeus's past, and now, there is only Zeus, only us."

The myth that Zeus swallowed Phanes and the cosmic egg and created the world again is just an appearance.

At its core is the metamorphosis of the self, through changing oneself and the world, to be born in a new image, like a butterfly in its cocoon.

In the past it was Phanes, now it is Zeus, and only Zeus.

However, there was another meaning in Metis' words, but Eros didn't care about it now.

"Okay, let's get back to the original topic."

Having temporarily satisfied his curiosity, Eros stopped asking about Metis' current condition and returned to the main topic.

He felt like he was only here for a small matter, but Zeus was giving him more important information.

"Well, let's get back to the story of your birth."

Metis was not ambiguous either. She spoke much more directly than the Riddler Zeus.

"What Themis told you is right. In fact, you have been under our watch since you were born."

"She even omitted some things. Even your birth was the result of our efforts."
