Atlas, who had remained silent all along, finally nodded gently after hearing all this, making it impossible for the gods to discern what he was truly thinking.
Menoetius merely responded listlessly with an "Oh."
Seeing this, Oceanus slowly exhaled.
Finally, he declared sternly: "From this day forth, you will stay properly in the ocean to cultivate your minds and characters. Remember, you are still criminal gods! His Majesty the God-King has not forgiven you! Allowing you to remain in the ocean now is already the greatest tolerance!"
Menoetius suddenly raised a question that broke the heavy atmosphere: "Respected Ocean God, where are Erinyes and Hesperis now?"
Atlas also asked: "Yes, what about Aegle and her sisters? How are they faring now?"
Oceanus's voice became somewhat gentler: "They are with Pontus. His Majesty the God-King will not pursue their punishment for now. Though they haven't been forgiven temporarily and have no honors for now, as long as you don't make mistakes, His Majesty the God-King won't trouble a few children."
"As for the future, as long as you can truly repent and contribute to the universe's order, it's not impossible for the children to harvest a bright future."
Hearing this, Atlas secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Though Menoetius was dissatisfied, he nodded.
Clymene also softened her tone, advising her two disappointing children: "His Majesty the God-King has already been so tolerant and magnanimous. You should not harbor any foolish and unrealistic thoughts."
"You should be grateful to the God-King. With the power you possess, as long as you can be accepted again by His Majesty the God-King, there will still be honor and position for you in the future universe."
"For now, cultivate your minds and characters in the ocean depths, and improve your violent temperaments that only cause trouble. Later, seek opportunities to serve great His Majesty the God-King."
Oceanus finally said: "Alright, you have suffered much during this time. Go rest and properly nurture your spirits."
After the children left, only Oceanus and Tethys remained in the crystal palace.
Only then did the Ocean God sigh deeply: "Tethys, my love, I always feel that with these two brothers and their rash, impulsive natures, they will definitely cause great disasters in the future."
"We pleaded with His Majesty the God-King out of love for our daughters, and His Majesty the God-King fully gave us face by granting grace."
"But if they cause some unmanageable trouble outside in the future, how will we explain to His Majesty the God-King?"
Gentle Tethys also sighed softly in her heart. How could she not understand this principle?
Characters formed over countless ages, plus the profound influence from their essential divinity—how could these two unfortunate children's temperaments be easily changed?
However, Tethys still wore a relaxed smile on her face. She reached out to gently grasp her husband's large hand, comforting warmly: "As long as they don't leave the ocean, with us watching carefully and instructing Clymene and Pleione to watch them well and counsel them more, I think as time passes, everything will gradually improve."
The Ocean God sighed again, shaking his head helplessly: "Let's not mention them for now. This time, His Majesty the God-King has another important matter requiring our attention."
The Ocean God told Tethys about Amalthea in detail. After listening, Tethys's expression immediately became serious.
She said in a very serious, earnest tone: "His Majesty the God-King is a deity who greatly values relationships. Just from your account, I can confirm that His Majesty the God-King extremely treasures this fairy named Amalthea."
"We must nurture her perfectly and care for her meticulously."
Speaking thus, Tethys smiled slightly and added: "Actually, this is also a great thing. From now on, this fairy will be our child, a member of our ocean god system, our ocean fairy. In the future, our relationship with His Majesty the God-King can become even closer."
Oceanus nodded in agreement, laughing cheerfully: "Indeed so. We must nurture this child well and seek the best law for her as the source of her new life."
Tethys nodded gently, then asked: "By the way, is Eurynome still unwilling to return?"
Hearing this, the Ocean God sighed helplessly again, feeling a headache coming on.
He rubbed his temples, saying extremely helplessly: "She stays at Olympus every day. Her little thoughts are probably known to all gods except herself."
Tethys was also helpless, full of worry: "Then Metis, she..."
The Ocean God said even more powerlessly: "Is there any goddess more intelligent than our Metis in this world? How could she not see it?"
"Eurynome is her beloved sister. She can only pretend not to know."
"Sigh, this child is also suffering. There are too many goddesses on Mount Olympus eyeing His Majesty the God-King."
"Unfortunately, our His Majesty the God-King seems to welcome all comers."
"When I went to Olympus this time, I heard that even Lady Night and Mnemosyne seem to have unclear relationships with His Majesty the God-King."
Tethys shook her head, saying helplessly: "Lady Night has been obvious since the divine assembly—it couldn't have been clearer then."
"But Mnemosyne is somewhat unexpected."
"However, thinking carefully, there's nothing strange about it. For a great deity like His Majesty the God-King, it would be truly strange if he didn't attract these goddesses' admiration."
Just as Oceanus and Tethys discussed Zeus's gossip and worried about their children's romantic affairs.
In the vast ocean's purest source water, a goddess representing "supreme yin" and supremacy was being nurtured from the deepest, most essential place.
She walked on waves from the ocean's source depths, slowly appearing on the water's surface.
This was an incomparably beautiful goddess with silver-white hair reaching her waist, indescribably graceful features, and bright, profound black-gray eyes like stars in the dark night.
Her figure was tall and graceful with natural elegant charm; her temperament was sacred and noble, transcendent and independent. She was dignified and magnificent, with countless graceful bearings, charming manner, and peerless beauty.
She possessed an absolute beauty and absolute allure that no language could describe.
But simultaneously, she was so incomparably noble and sacred that she inspired awe and was inviolably sacred.
This was the most feminine, most beautiful goddess in the entire universe.
She was the most perfect embodiment of the "yin" aspect after the universe's three realms and three domains pattern was completely established and perfected.
She was the eternal, most sacred and flawless, pure and beautiful exquisite deity.
She was the ultimate manifestation of the concept "perfect woman."
She was the most beautiful goddess in this universe.
Without exception.
At the same time, her body contained the most primitive essence of "love" and "desire."
And that—the newly born spiritual source once again.
The master of spirituality appeared in the universe once again.
This time, she was also the embodiment of the Holy Spirit, the manifestation of supreme yin.
The moment she was born, Zeus, who was quietly cultivating on sacred Mount Olympus, suddenly raised his head.
His face instantly showed uncontrollable ultimate ecstasy.
Then his form immediately became lightning that tore through the firmament, breaking through layers of space, heading straight for the ocean.
Simultaneously, the Ocean God couple who had been chatting about gossip also suddenly became aware.
They looked at each other and saw immense shock in each other's eyes.
Without saying a word, they immediately set out for where this new goddess was located.
However, Zeus arrived first.
The "two deities" faced each other in the boundless ocean depths.
They looked at each other and both showed knowing smiles.
Then they spoke simultaneously, greeting each other.
"Hello, Zeus."
"Hello, Dione."
The two deities slowly approached each other.
Until they faced each other, then simultaneously raised their palms.
Their palms lightly touched.
The essences of "supreme yin" and "supreme yang" finally made contact.
The embodiments of "power" and "spirituality" finally united.
In this moment, the entire universe underwent an inexplicable, incredibly profound transformation toward "supreme goodness and beauty."
The entire universe became increasingly full of vitality and life force.
And Zeus, precisely at this moment, finally achieved completion of "yin" and "spirituality" for his divine essence as "yang" and "power."
He truly reached the realm of "lacking neither yin nor yang," "self-rooted and self-sourced," achieving that perfectly harmonious, endlessly creative "supreme ultimate" totality.
From this moment forth, he could finally perfectly and completely evolve all laws, all spirits, and all things in this universe.
He could truly, thoroughly, no longer need to "devour" but could freely absorb, analyze, and control all laws in this universe.
When he had deep contact with any goddess, he could perfectly control the other's essential laws, becoming the supreme controller of that law together with that law's embodiment.
He could use his supreme ruling authority to command and analyze, ultimately completely controlling all laws he governed.
The two deities separated at the touch.
But from this moment on, everything was completely different.
