Chapter 1305
Chapter 1305
Zeus hated Hephaestus from the moment he was born. He could not accept that a child born between him and Hera could be so ugly. This was proven when he did not say much when Hera threw the newborn Hephaestus from the sky, which caused him to be lame.
It was different for Herakel. As a candidate to become the God of Heroes, Herakel was a son whom he was very proud of. After all, his quality was second to none.
That was not the case for Hephaestus. Despite carrying the great title of Zeus’ son, he was often ignored by even the most ordinary gods. Then, Hephaestus developed a severe social phobia; he could not make eye contact with anyone, even humans. This resulted in him becoming the laughing stock and object of mockery of all the gods of the Gaia Continent.
All of the gods of Olympus actually knew when Hera locked him up and used him to mass-produce weapons for Olympus. They just sat on the sidelines and let her be. They even thought that it was a very fitting place for Hephaestus.
What Zeus hated the most about Hephaestus was his curled shoulders and the way he flinched whenever he encountered someone, despite being a god and his son.
Zeus was not present when Hephaestus left the Gaia Continent. He only realized the vacancy he left behind when he realized that no one could fix or create weapons for the gods of Olympus. The worst part? Hephaestus had given the spear he was making as a gift for Zeus, to Minhyuk instead.
He had heard stories about Hephaestus from the people of the Western Continents. He had heard about how Hephaestus fought with his own life to save the people of the Beyond the Heavens Empire from the Master of Weapons and how he was loved dearly by many as the blacksmith of the same empire that he saved.
Unfortunately, nothing changed in the Gaia Continent, where he was born.
At that moment, Hephaestus said, “My world has changed.”
The gods laughed at him. The god, who took the lead in mocking him, said, “What the hell? Hey, you moron! You’re still a f*cking idiot of a god as always!”
