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

The patterns of light spread across Rome, at the Heroic Bath, the Great Arena, and on the streets where the Romans stopped their tasks, arms outstretched, joyfully and devoutly welcoming the blessing from Dionysus, the God of Wine.


This is the most human-friendly, selfless, and merciful deity.


Whenever a celebratory day arrives, they all equally receive this god's blessing, which is the reason for so many festivals in Rome.


The golden rain of light faded from dense to thin, marking the end of the opening blessing announcement.


As the priests finished their lengthy chanting, reminiscing about Rome's founding history and recounting the illustrious contributions of past Roman emperors, the current elder emperor, Claudius I, holding Nero's hand, ascended the rose petal-covered steps to the square.


And immediately after, it was time to officially meet the gods and complete the transfer of power.
