Party.
Regarding this thing.
Sora had to admit.
This was really great!
From now on, they must hold more—whenever there was nothing to do, they should hold one. Happy gatherings always let everyone relax their minds and unwind.
During the party process.
Everyone kept playing games.
After all, it was a party!
If they didn't play games, that would be the strangest thing.
As for the final result?
Just kidding!
Sora was inevitably the victor. Please, as the Dark God, if he lost in this aspect, he might as well find a block of tofu and smash his head against it.
Persephone slowly walked out of the room.
Today.
She wore a white dress, appearing very noble and elegant.
"Really."
Persephone wore a helpless yet doting smile: "Dust, you're really causing trouble. Time was already short, and now there are only two days left until the portal cools down. We still need to find Prometheus."
Sora walked over and embraced Persephone's slender waist: "Well, after all, everyone had fun playing games."
"Let's go."
"This time."
"Let's just the two of us take a walk."
Persephone helplessly tapped Sora's forehead, her gentle-as-water appearance truly deadly!
The two vanished instantly.
Underworld City.
Fairy Island.
The two had arrived at Fairy Island.
Sora stood by the coast, looking at the rolling waves and the distant sea, squinting slightly: "Persephone, as far as I know, in the mythological era, Prometheus was sealed by Zeus on Mount Caucasus, and later released by Heracles. Do you know where he is?"
Persephone shook her head gently: "Dust, you're mistaken."
"That's just false records."
"Oh?"
Sora raised an eyebrow with interest: "False records?"
Things were getting interesting.
There was gossip!
Look!
Persephone naturally knew her divine master's personality and explained softly: "In the mythological era, Prometheus brought fire to humanity and was thus sealed by Zeus on Mount Caucasus."
"Actually."
"This is just one account."
"To be precise."
"Human development cannot be stopped by anyone, and bringing light and fire to humanity was what Prometheus was meant to do."
"After all."
"Prometheus isn't just the god of wisdom, but also the god of fire."
Sora nodded. He had naturally guessed this point.
Mythology!
Just listen to it for entertainment.
Gods weren't a bunch of idiots. They couldn't possibly do such foolish things.
A group of beings who had lived for countless years—did you expect them to be idiots?
That...
Was unrealistic, completely impossible.
Sora said with interest: "So Zeus was very wary of Prometheus, or rather! Had already begun to fear Prometheus?"
"Correct."
Persephone nodded and continued: "In the Titan era, Zeus, with the help of Metis and Prometheus—these two goddesses of wisdom and god of wisdom—step by step defeated that supreme Titan god. But afterward, some problems arose."
"I can guess."
Sora said casually: "In some mythological records, in the Greek pantheon, Zeus was the sole god. As the sole god, he was supreme."
"Obviously."
"In this world, Zeus didn't achieve this."
"Then..."
"Since Zeus wasn't the sole god, he would naturally become wary of Metis and Prometheus who could assist him."
"That's one point."
Persephone continued: "This is just one aspect. More precisely, the core reason comes from Metis."
"Before Kronos was sealed, he cursed Zeus."
"Zeus would be overthrown by his own child."
"And!"
"Zeus's first child was precisely Zeus and Metis's son, that sun god Abel who had been obscured by mythology."
"Abel's matter."
"Made Zeus act against Metis and Prometheus."
Persephone raised her head, quietly gazing at the sky as if trying to see the former Olympus.
Sora nodded with understanding: "No wonder! Initially, Persephone was so nervous, often able to act but choosing not to, never making any transgressive moves."
"Hehehe..."
Persephone listened to Sora's teasing and smiled without speaking.
Sora didn't say anything more and continued: "Speaking of which, Athena's situation is also quite special?"
"Athena's situation..."
Persephone nodded: "Many things I wasn't clear about, but later I learned much from Mother."
"Prometheus was sealed on Mount Caucasus, suffering endless pain."
"After that."
"Heracles seemingly liberated Prometheus."
"However!"
"That's not the case."
"Heracles, as a demigod, had a glorious life, becoming the god of strength comparable to Ares and Athena."
"Liberating Prometheus was just the surface."
"The truth is, Prometheus was sealed beneath the sea."
"Even Poseidon himself wasn't clear about this."
"After all."
"At that time, the War of Three God-Kings had ended, Poseidon's divine body had disappeared, and he had almost fallen into eternal slumber."
Persephone softly explained everything, while Sora's eyes showed understanding.
As for.
Where exactly in the sea Prometheus was sealed?
That was easy to find.
Persephone was now a god-king. Finding Prometheus's location was far too easy.
"Besides that."
"Metis, Athena."
"Metis was also sealed by Zeus. Whether she's still alive now?"
"Cannot be determined!"
"However."
"Zeus used this point to forever control Athena, making her become Zeus's dog raised on Earth, forever only able to obediently work for Olympus."
Persephone continued explaining Metis and Athena's situation.
"How boring!"
Sora shook his head, saying very uninterestedly: "Undeniably, it's really just that! Zeus, this guy, completely focused on scheming. As for the bearing and courage of a hero, honestly, he's lacking quite a bit."
Sora found it very boring.
Trust those you employ, don't employ those you don't trust.
Even.
Among gods.
Even without signing divine subordinate contracts.
Hmm...
Sorry!
Sora's divine subordinate contracts, dependent contracts, and dependent race contracts were different from normal gods. After all, his status was there.
But.
Even so, divine hearts were held in hand, right?
But Zeus's embarrassing behavior!
Sora didn't know what to say.
"Indeed so."
Persephone nodded and continued: "After that, many things happened, but no matter what, everything was under Zeus's control, until today's arrival."
"Alright then."
Sora clicked his tongue. He had probably gotten the gist of this gossip.
He roughly guessed Zeus's situation.
Could only say!
It matched his understanding of Zeus.
"Not much significance."
"Let's go."
"Go find Prometheus."
"Perfect!"
"We can also release Prometheus."
Sora said very casually: "With Prometheus, this god of wisdom, being released, this game will surely become more fun and interesting."
The smile at the corner of Sora's mouth grew richer.
That's right!
In Sora's eyes, what he was doing now was just a game.
The difference was.
In all the worlds he had conquered before, he was like an invincible player who could just casually mow down enemies and clear the game.
As for the world he was currently in?
He needed to play step by step. This game needed to be played slowly.
"Alright."
Persephone also smiled and nodded. They had played enough games—it was time to do some real business. Releasing Prometheus wouldn't affect anything, but would make everything more interesting.
"After all."
"Based on Prometheus, this kind of god of wisdom."
"The smarter a person is, the more terrifying their revenge becomes."
Sora said with interest: "Next, no one knows what will happen to this world, but! The disappearance of Primordial Gods, Zeus's disappearance."
"These matters."
"Indeed need investigation. No matter what, it's not suitable for us to investigate ourselves."
"Prometheus is a good tool."
"Moreover!"
Sora said meaningfully: "Prometheus was Zeus's subordinate. What reason would he have to oppose Zeus because of Metis? Presumably, next, if Metis is still alive, Prometheus will also rescue her."
"This is a very good way to control Athena."
Persephone said softly: "Dust, so you've taken a fancy to Athena?"
"More precisely."
"I've taken a fancy to Saori Kido."
Sora thought briefly and shook his head. He didn't know about Athena, but he was quite interested in Saori Kido.
"Really not hiding your inner thoughts at all, but that's just like you, Dust."
"Then..."
"Dealing with Athena—no, Saori Kido—seems to require some consideration too."
Persephone smiled and nodded. The two looked at each other, everything understood without words.
The two crossed Fairy Island and then left instantly.
Above the sea.
There were numerous islands.
And!
Many of these islands were quite special.
After all.
This was a mythological world with many special islands containing unique divine power.
These islands were fairly decent.
Even.
Some islands were inhabited by scattered gods—some were surviving Titan gods, some were new gods from Zeus's era, and there were fourth-generation gods.
But no matter what, these gods were scattered deities.
Many of these gods lived on these special islands in the ocean. The scenery was nice—it was like retirement.
As for what happened on Earth?
Please!
That was something only the big shots could afford to play with. These little trash?
Obediently listen and watch—better not get involved.
As for those islands that Sanctuary had taken a fancy to for nurturing Cloths?
Hehehe...
Of course they obediently gave them up. They weren't qualified to provoke the behemoth that was Sanctuary.
Don't think Saori Kido seemed like a professional hostage, always either being captured or on the way to being captured.
Actually?
That was just external appearance. As everyone knew, before Athena's prefix as goddess of wisdom came goddess of war and victory—she could press Ares to the ground and rub him without weapons, just with her bare hands.
She was also the female maniac who shattered Poseidon's divine body during the War of Three God-Kings in the mythological era.
Provoke her?
How desperate would one have to be!
Phoenix Islands.
Phoenix Archipelago.
In the original world, Sora indeed didn't know the origin of this archipelago's name, but in this world...
"Once."
"Phoenix fell here, and his body fragments became the archipelago."
"In the Phoenix Islands, his life essence is contained."
Persephone had already explained the origin of the Phoenix Islands to Sora.
Sora nodded with understanding.
Worth mentioning!
In the original work.
The Phoenix Cloth was stored precisely on Death Queen Island in the Phoenix Islands.
Unexpectedly.
The Phoenix Cloth was nurtured by borrowing Death Queen Island's divine power and Phoenix's original divine power.
"Hmm?"
Sora frowned slightly, sensing something, and contemplated: "Persephone, what island is that location?"
Persephone looked in the direction Sora pointed and said softly: "That's Death Queen Island."
"However."
"Death Queen Island isn't an archipelago formed from Phoenix's original fragments after death."
"Death Queen Island is a fragment of the shattered Mu continent."
"However!"
"Very strangely."
"After Death Queen Island merged into the Phoenix Islands, it could actually guide Phoenix's essence to completely gather in Death Queen Island's volcano, forming the best original nurturing divine power."
"Sanctuary also uses it to nurture the Phoenix Cloth."
During this period, Persephone had learned very much about everything that had happened over the years from her mother.
It could be said.
Persephone's descriptions were all well-founded—she had understood everything she needed to.
"Indeed!"
"Death Queen Island!"
Sora squinted slightly. He had already had some speculation before.
Facts proved.
Everything was almost exactly as he had guessed.
"Dust, what's wrong?"
"Hmph!"
At Persephone's inquiry, Sora's mouth curved up with interest: "Some interesting things happened. Perfect, let's go take a look."
"Alright."
Persephone didn't ask more.
Since they were going to look, then they'd go look.
Honestly speaking.
In Persephone's view, there was nowhere she couldn't go. Moreover! If willing, she could return to the Pure Land of Bliss instantly.
Everything was completely trivial.
Soon.
The two arrived at Death Queen Island.
At this moment.
Death Queen Island was very quiet.
Persephone said: "Death Queen Island—ordinary people cannot come here. This place is sealed."
"After all."
"This is where exiled Saints are located."
"Except..."
Persephone seemed to think of something.
Sora smiled: "Indeed, Persephone, just as you're thinking. This place seems different. Things seem to be getting interesting. What exactly is hidden on this island?"
"Or rather."
"Why is it like this?"
The corner of Sora's mouth curved up, his smile growing richer.
The reason was simple!
With Sora's vision, he could clearly see that on Death Queen Island, there was dark power attracting him.
More precisely.
This dark power was praying, pleading for his arrival.
