Chapter 1306
Hephaestus had lived on the Gaia Continent for thousands of years, but only two people treated him with respect.
The first was Herakel. Despite having an eccentric personality and an arrogance that reached the skies, Herakel would not condemn, criticize, or ignore someone for no reason.
The other one was Demeter. She had a good heart and a kind personality. She had always tried to treat Hephaestus kindly and with respect. She did not try to blend in with the other gods. After all, she could not understand why the other gods always tried to crush Hephaestus’ ego and trample on him.
Hundreds of millions of people lived on the Gaia Continent. Yet the entire population, except those mentioned before, had always ignored and mocked Hephaestus.
The gods would spit at him and mock his limp legs whenever he passed. There were even some vicious ones who would beat him up by saying that he was slow in making their artifacts. Even mortals did not bow when they saw him and would even go so far as to whisper and laugh at him.
One of the humans even said...
–It’s better to live as a human mortal than be a god with a limp like that.
Did the gods of Olympus act differently? They just fanned the flames. When Hephaestus attended the gods’ council, his chair was missing. So, he was forced to crouch and sit by himself in a corner.
That was the kind of life Hephaestus had lived for thousands of years.
