Purple Night Melody

If you had a golden apple, who would you give it to?
Invited to the banquet, Luo En saw the golden apple in the plate inscribed with "To the fairest goddess" and the three goddesses embroiled in dispute before him, and he picked up a knife with a smug smile.
The first step, peeling; he gave the skin to Aphrodite.
"To be fair, you're quite pretty. As a layer of skin, you're not bad to look at."
The second step, slicing the flesh; he gave that to Hera.
"As the queen of heaven, yet everyone in Olympus from 800-year-olds to animals has cuckolded you, including males, females, and even sheep. Since you can't save face anyway, take these insides."
The third step, he gave the remaining core to Athena.
"You were supposed to be born a male god and take over Zeus's position, but due to Zeus's shenanigans, you lost that seed, so here, have this core."
Aphrodite clenched her fists, Hera raised her scepter, Athena summoned her spear and shield...
Seeing this, Luo En quickly stepped back, shielding the goddess of discord, Eris, firmly in front of him.
"And you still want to be the goddess of discord? Look at me; I got them to unite at once, even better than you with your instigation."
"..."
Surrounded by Greek gods sharpening their knives, Eris was left in silence.

The Greece Antagonist

King of Thessaly royal palace, a certain mansion.


Mercurial liquid poured from the dense night, flowing to the dimly lit steps in front of the mansion and slowly coalesced into a beautiful, tall red-haired girl.


Displaying an unusually transparent complexion, the girl hadn't walked many steps before she had to lean on the carved pillar by the door, taking deep breaths. Her body absorbed the aether factors freely drifting in the air, and only then did her pale skin recover some semblance of human blood color and rosiness.


"So you actually botched the job, Aphrodite."


Accompanied by a deep voice, a tall, muscular young man with brown skin came from around the corner's shadow and looked at his disheveled mechanical god kin with a slight frown.


"The intel was wrong; that guy is strong, definitely not just some ordinary demigod hero!"
