"What is this…?" Zeus looked at the completely dark space around her, bewildered.
Just as she was wondering, the surroundings instantly lit up, expanding Zeus's field of vision.
She only remembered that she had accidentally cut her finger in the treasure vault, and a drop of blood had fallen to the ground, instantly turning into a two-meter-wide hole that swallowed her.
By the time Zeus recovered, she had entered this unknown space.
After everything around her lit up, Zeus was surprised to find some familiar-looking items, such as a half-broken staff inscribed with 'Ruyi', a three-pointed, two-edged blade broken into three sections, and a shattered mirror.
From the ancient script on it, Zeus could confidently say that she recognized the three characters 'Kunlun Mirror'.
"What exactly happened in the East?!" Zeus exclaimed inwardly.
But then her attention was drawn to a golden egg in the center of the room.
"What kind of magical treasure is this?" Zeus looked at the already cracked golden egg; it was solid inside.
Was it meant for smashing people?
Zeus curiously touched the surface of the golden egg; it wasn't made of gold either.
"How strange!" If it weren't for the residual energy fluctuations, Zeus probably wouldn't have been sure it was a magical treasure from any immortal.
In Zeus's perception, the energy fluctuations of this egg were greater than all the 'junk' in the entire room.
"Eh! So light." Zeus placed the golden egg in her palm and found it much lighter than expected, like the weight of foam glue.
After playing with it in her hand for a bit, Zeus directly put the golden egg into the spatial bracelet Rhea had given her, and also put all the other items in the room into the bracelet.
Zeus then walked out of the secret chamber.
Although in others' eyes these were irreparable scraps, to Zeus, they were a form of longing for her homeland.
They say you don't know what you have until it's gone, and this saying was absolutely true for Zeus.
Only after losing it did she realize how wonderful her comfortable otaku life used to be!
No need to worry about mortal danger (being eaten alive), no need to worry about her chastity (almost being assaulted).
Most importantly, her 'second brother' who had always been by her side.
Thinking of this, Zeus couldn't help but be filled with tears.
'Brother!' I would rather give up my life and power as a god, if only you could come back!
But there are no do-overs in this world!
"Your Majesty, the banquet is ready.
Lady Rhea requests your presence." Just as Zeus walked out of the treasure vault, a maid who had been waiting nearby stepped forward and spoke.
This voice pulled Zeus back from her sorrowful, dazed state.
By the time Zeus arrived, the Five Sisters, plus Rhea, were already there.
But the atmosphere around them was a bit oppressive!
No one was willing to say an extra word.
"Little Zeus," the energetic fourth sister, Demeter, saw Zeus and happily ran over, ignoring the murderous gazes behind her, and took Zeus's hand.
The other four cursed inwardly, 'As expected of a bitch with the wisdom divine duty, so quick-handed!'
But Rhea, being a doting mother, was very happy with the current situation.
She was finally reunited with her children.
Thinking of this, Rhea couldn't help but reveal a satisfied (and somewhat foolish) smile.
"I am your new God King, Zeus." Zeus first refused to be seated, as there were still outsiders present.
Having just taken office, Zeus didn't want anyone to rebel and cause her trouble.
She still had to put on a show, so Zeus walked to a place where everyone could see her and spoke.
"No matter what you think, I, Zeus, am the God King.
The God Clan shall be eternal." As Zeus spoke, she directly unleashed her overwhelming divine power, expanding it to create a suppressive force that swept across the entire venue, quelling some of the subtle glances.
Although her senses were relatively dull, Zeus was very alert to those malicious gazes, giving special attention to a few particularly obvious ones.
Zeus cast what she thought was a very disdainful look at them, but which in reality was captivating.
It made a group of goddesses below her dizzy and successfully drew five pairs of eyes filled with surging possessiveness.
Zeus directly gave the order for the banquet to begin.
"Ah! How embarrassing, giving a speech in front of so many people (gods)." As she walked out of their sight, Zeus felt her legs go soft.
She still had some social anxiety from being an otaku.
"Zeus, come have a drink!" Just as Zeus sat next to Rhea, feeling shy, Hera, who was nearby, seized an opportunity.
She moved closer to Zeus and handed her a cup full of wine.
"Um, I don't drink." That's right! In fact, Zeus had never really drunk alcohol.
At Gaia's place, she only drank juice made from golden apples or other fruits.
Even when she fed Cronus wine, she didn't swallow a drop.
That was because there was 'emetic' in it!
With curiosity, Zeus picked up the cup and took a sip.
Then, her vision went black.
Zeus directly collapsed into Rhea's arms, losing consciousness.
Fortunately, there were people (gods) all around, otherwise, Zeus would surely have been eaten until not even her bones remained.
