Chapter 1303
Demeter stood in the emperor’s audience hall and stared at Minhyuk on his throne. Fortunately, the misunderstanding regarding Demeter harming someone had been resolved. Nevertheless, the cold and icy glare that Minhyuk directed at her made her heart throb painfully.
‘There were no lies. That’s the truth.’
For the gods of Olympus, there was no such thing as succession. They were already gods from the moment they were conceived and born. Perhaps that was why they had been arrogant and treated humans like bugs. It seemed like they were sending Demeter here for the sake of the Gaia Continent, but that was not the truth.
Demeter was the only god in the Gaia Continent who cared for and loved humans—seeing Minhyuk still caring for and loving his people despite his high position captured her heart.
Unfortunately, the words she was about to say were not whispers of love: “I came here to convey Zeus’ words.”
Demeter did not speak in the voice of a woman longing for her beloved, but in a voice filled with frost and arrogance.
“Our Gaia Continent and your Western Continents have taken the path of coexistence. And on this path, the Gaia Continent has made many concessions. The people of the West have inflicted immense damage upon our continent. You have even forced some of our gods’ status to fall and have taken away much more from us than we have expected, just to fill your stomachs. Now, it’s time for us to receive compensation. If your compensation does not meet our expectations, we will no longer continue coexisting with the West.”
Demeter’s presence in the Western Continents was a signal. This meant that all of the gods of Olympus would be able to enter this place freely. Perhaps a war between these two continents was also possible.
‘Lord Zeus wishes to trample on the Western Continents.’
So, what they were asking for was much bigger than they could ever imagine.
