Chapter 44 The God King Regrets
Kronos's reaction at this moment was extremely slow.
This is not only due to the efficacy of the divine wine that Metis spent hundreds of years brewing, but also the credit of Rhea, the goddess of time.
Long before today's action, Zeus had already discussed it with Rhea. Rhea, who was in the temple not far away, was always observing closely. When Kronos began to drink, Rhea quietly used her divine power to blur the time on the sacred mountain.
Without the perception of time, Kronos had no idea how long he had been drinking.
The God King was completely immersed in his own thoughts and did not notice this subtle change. He only knew that he drank a little more today, but he didn't know how much.
It was also because of the incident with Taren over the past few hundred years that this God King became extremely depressed. He was too cautious, so cautious that he was not satisfied with any method and kept overturning it.
This went on over and over again, and those emotions were never relieved and were always suppressed. The accumulation of these emotions made him not notice many abnormalities.
He didn't even realize he was vomiting from drinking too much, all his perceptions were blurred.
The first one to be vomited out was Poseidon, the "Ocean and Earthshaker" whom he had recently devoured.
He is the embodiment of the ocean and earthquake. Almost the moment he appears, the breath of the tide appears, and even the earth shakes.
Then, darkness followed, and a figure symbolizing darkness emerged from the chaos. He had a pair of extremely dark and deep eyes, and it was Hades, the god of darkness.
The third person to be spit out was an extremely beautiful goddess. She had a pair of white arms, bright eyes and white teeth, and was unparalleled in beauty.
It was the beautiful Hera.
Fourth is Demeter, the great goddess who symbolizes agriculture and harvest.
Almost at the moment the goddess was born, the earth was covered with green grass and swaying fruits, as if the whole world was welcoming her arrival.
The last one was Hestia, the source of fire that was swallowed first, the goddess of warmth that symbolizes hearth and light.
At this point, all the gods who had been swallowed by Kronos returned to this world.
All the laws that Kronos inherited from them also disappeared, and were born again along with these gods.
Before Kronos knew what was happening, his divine power had already dropped by almost half. The feeling of being stripped of the laws made him painful, and his consciousness, which had been paralyzed by the divine wine, began to slowly return.
Seeing this, Zeus immediately spoke to his blood relatives and said decisively: "Go!"
That unquestionable voice resounded in the ears of every god present, exploding like thunder.
Now is not a good time for them to take action.
The God Kings were certainly weak, but the problem was that they weren't that strong either.
Poseidon and the others were in very poor condition at the moment, like newly born gods, their powers were not even half of their peak.
With Kronos's power, if he doesn't leave now, he won't be able to leave later.
The five gods finally saw the light of day again. Although they didn't understand what had happened, they did not hesitate at all to follow Zeus's order and immediately followed him away.
Zeus did not forget Rhea, the Queen of Gods. Before Kronos woke up, he took his brothers and sisters and the mother goddess and hurriedly escaped from the sacred mountain.
Almost at the moment they left the sacred mountain, the deafening roar of the God King Kronos was heard from the mountain. Everyone could feel the God King's anger in the sound, and the entire sacred mountain was shaking.
The whole world heard the roar and the deafening sound of the sacred mountain collapsing. All the gods looked sideways, not knowing what had happened.
"Your Majesty, the great Divine King, you never imagined that you would end up like this!"
"When you feared being overthrown by your own descendants and chose to devour them, did you ever imagine this day would come?"
Zeus laughed heartily, and his voice also resounded throughout the world. He announced his arrival in such a forceful way that everyone knew of his existence.
"Son of Uranus, God King Kronos, cherish your days on the throne of God King, for they are running out."
After saying that, he left without hesitation, leading everyone out of the world and hiding in the vast universe.
When Kronos chased out, not even a shadow of him could be seen.
Anger, shock, disbelief, all kinds of emotions enveloped him. The emptiness and pain caused by the loss of divine power and the stripping away of laws in his body made him almost doubt whether he had not woken up yet.
After thousands of years of hard work, he finally gathered together a body of divine power, but nearly half of it was lost in just one drink!
All this happened so fast, so fast that Kronos simply couldn't accept such a loss!
He wanted to chase after them and kill all the rebels immediately, but he could not find any trace of them. Extreme anger ignited his reason, and he even shattered the sacred mountain in anger!
Countless huge rocks fell to the ground, making a deafening sound. The whole world was shaking and had to bear the wrath of the God-King.
And beneath that extreme anger, buried was his unspeakable fear.
The curse that he had forgotten for nearly a thousand years came back madly at this moment. He once thought that he had found the right way and had completely broken the curse, but now he realized that he was extremely wrong.
The curse has not been lifted at all!
It's ridiculous that he actually thought he had done something that even Uranus couldn't do, and he was even proud of it.
But at this moment he realized that he had made the same mistake as Uranus, that is, always thinking that he could fight against fate and control everything.
It was also at this moment that he suddenly remembered what Taren had said hundreds of years ago.
At that time, the young man in white robe looked at him with pity, chuckled and said that his father was as naive as he was.
And that sentence is followed by:
——
"So your father's ending was not very good."
Does this mean that he will also have a bad ending?
But how can this be possible?!
He did not chase after the rebels who were destined to be lost, but turned around and rushed into the void. He wanted to find Taren and find out what his fate would be.
But he was stopped, he was stopped by the barrier he had set up.
Because he was extremely frightened at the time, he said that no gods would be allowed to enter or leave, so this "anyone" also included himself, but he did not realize this problem at the time.
Because when he is powerful enough, he can ignore his own orders.
But now his strength has decreased significantly, and he can no longer pass through the cage he set up in his heyday. He is blocked outside.
As long as Taren doesn't want to see him, he will never be able to see Taren again unless he can swallow the five children again and restore his original strength.
Kronos finally realized that he was wrong, and extremely wrong, and finally felt the taste of regret at this moment.
But... it's too late.
