Chapter 409: Athena (2)
You know, with the amounts of Greek Gods' names that are in the title because of me meeting them, won't be long till I make my way up to seeing every gods in existences. And if I'm friendly with them, the expanding list for my future wedding will with excruciatingly painful.
"Look, if you accept my deal to become a temporary Olympian, in order to bring balance for the foreseeable chaos, I'll become your wife and bear your child." Athena offered "I'll break my vow of maidenhood and even retire from Olympus when you do too."
"Look, you're pretty, good at fighting and everything but sorry, that's an easy no. Besides when we both retire, won't that just leave 2 seats open?"
"Well by the time we retire, we would already have a replacement." she answered "Many gods would've scoff at you and be envious of you. Even Aphrodite wouldn't believe in my offer, are you sure you will reject it?"
I then activate Kronos' powers again and stop time and went ahead to the vault. With Kronos powers, time stop last longer and I can use it several times. It seems like Athena altered her quarters just to prepare for my arrival and with her brains, I have no doubt that even the vault has some sort of trap inside in case she predicted this.
With Kronos' time powers, I can use it on the vault to reverse time and make it turn into nothingness. I then walked throw her quarter. She share similar taste, I guess, just a simple small house with other mini pocket dimension rooms, the only big ones are the battle ground, the library and...sore, the treasury. I walked in and see a few things which I took, she got 3 pairs of winged sandals which I'm pretty sure belonged to Hermes and a trap door which I can't have access too which I'm pretty sure got her most precious collection.
I changed my current sneakers to one of Hermes' since I sense that the time stop is fading. I imprint it with my man and hide the winds on those shoes and ran quickly outside back to where Cain and Athena was as time then flowed normally again.
Athena can easily sense that I got Hermes shoes and gave out a smirk.
-You got anything over there?-
-Well I managed wrestle Ares in place while Diana and Ace find the password to his vault.- Damon replied -We got some seeds.-
-Those are for wheat alright, some apple seeds and pear seeds too.- Dabria confirmed -Don't look so surprised, I'm a goddess of life, Diana. I know these things.-
-We can just plant them and grow wheat. Cool.- Diana responded
-Well we got what we wanted, Let's run.- Siege advised -I personally do not want to confront Artemis.-
-Did you guys know that her roman name is also Diana?-
-Yes.- Diana replied -Let's dip.-
I then run and pulled Cain out of Athena's reach in one quick moment.
"See you at the banquet, Athena."
She just gave me a wave of goodbye as I ran to the others. I ran all the way to Ares' quarters and ran inside to see Siege and Damon struggling holding Ares down, he looks like he's having the time of his life.
"There ya are, the main boss, come fight, hahaha." Ares laughed
-Dabria, open a portal out of here.-
Dabria opened one under our feet and we dropped through the portal and crash landed in parents' house destroying the dining table.
"Hey big bro." Oliver greeted "Are you playing knights and bandits again?"
"Are those new shoes, can I have one?" Emily asked
"Luckily we haven't placed the food or we'll have to remake them." Olivia said "So I'm assuming the person who you'll holding by the collar will be joining for lunch?"
"S-Sure." Cain nodded "I can't believed we just robbed Olympus and we got away with it."
"That's because we throw another god under the bus. We'll be staying her for a while to make sure they don't come after my family."
"What's a bus?" Oliver asked
"Is it a new magic affinity?" Emily joined in
*****
I used time magic to restored the table as my family prepared dinner.
"Why are you with big bro? Are you a god too?" Oliver asked
"No, just a guy who was made immortal against my will." Cain replied "Used to be like you once, full of life, then downhill it goes."
"Every story have a happy ending." Emily argued
"You clearly haven't taught them about Romeo and Juliet." he grumbled "Stop playing with my cloak."
-So as we were struggling, you instead got hit on by Athena, by gods, you really do raise flags with every woman you meet.- Diana exclaimed
-Not hit on, she gave me an offer for a seat on Olympus, and herself as my bride will be to keep balance, it's similar when Zeus tried to keep peace with the titans by marrying one of them.-
-Except that he swallowed one whole because of a prophecy that his second child will be born stronger than him.- Siege pointed out
-Funnily enough, she's Athena's mother.- Ace chuckled
"Mom, Dad, can I borrow your backyard for a bit?"
"Are you planning on growing weed?" Dad asked "You're smoking now? Are times that hard?
"Wheat. I plan on taming the first immortal pegasus and the fastest horse in existence to help kill this guy."
"How do you kill an immortal?" Uncle John asked "...Right. It's you, so what makes him different."
"The guy who made him immortal would constant intervene so it's better to get on his good side. He'll also give me a clue on how to find Eden, paradise."
"Sounds like a fun place for a vacation."
"It does, just don't eat the forbidden fruit." Cain chimed in "Or you'll be exiled forever."
"I need to get out more, my adventuring days sound so boring compared to this." Dad complained
"Not as fun if you have gods aiming for your head."
"You got a marriage proposal from a literal goddess, I don't see why you're complaining." Cain grumbled
"Wait what?" Mom questioned in shock
"He was offered an honorary seat amongst the Olympian council which is a very big and influential faction among the council of Gods." Cain answered "But if he gets it, there will be backlash, so to keep in balance, a maiden goddess have offered to become his bride."
"First, a princess, now a goddess. I'm not surprised." Olivia sighs
"He does look good with glasses to be fair, I'd marry him." Dabria said aloud and we all turned to her "Forget I said that."
