Seeing the scene before them, the heroes had expressions of disbelief, and imdiately, discussions erupted like a pot boiling over.
Is this the sa ho-wrecker slayer and illegitimate child nesis?
Isn't she the one who hates illegitimate children the most?
Hasn't Hercules been persecuted by her all this ti?
"You believe in the ghost stories of the dead?"
In the corner, the God of Wine swirled his cup and asked with a sneering laugh.
And as they faced the reality of Hera personally crowning Hercules, a love rival's son, the heroes began to understand just how deeply they had misunderstood the Queen of Heaven.
There was no ho-wrecker slayer, no illegitimate child nesis, all of it was just rumors from the outside!
The crowd had an epiphany, and one after another, they looked on with disdain at the pile of flesh outside the door and spat.
To defa that benevolent Queen of Heaven for one's own selfishness and the throne, truly a death deserved!
"Alright, gentlen, today is the grand celebration of Hercules's coronation as king. Why don't we raise our cups in celebration and share this glorious mont!"
The God of Feasts in the midst lifted his cup and shouted, the rhythmic Authority making the dishes on the plates even more delicious, the wine in the cups even richer.
The joyful atmosphere infected everyone, and they raised their cups in response.
"Cheers!"
For a mont, in the hall cups and plates crossed, people exchanged drinks, and the entire hall was imrsed in the ocean of joy.
The happiest among them were undoubtedly the Divine Blood Royal Guard and heroes from Argos, who surrounded Hercules and toasted the new king.
In the world of the gods, only the lion is fit to lead the flock, only the brave can be praised, and only heroes are worthy of support.
All this ti, although Eurystheus ruled Argos, it was the forr Hercules who constantly slew beasts and mitigated disasters. How many Argive people had benefited from his grace.
Now, they had lost a cowardly and selfish faint-hearted monarch, but in return, they gained a hero who could lead and protect them. Nothing could make the people of Argos happier.
It looks like the forr King of Argos's worries were correct; in terms of prestige or ability, he was no match for his own cousin.
Luo En watched Hercules, surrounded by a crowd and being copiously filled with fine wine, and shook his head with a light chuckle, then picked up a cup of lighter-tasting wine from the table and passed it to the side.
Hera, who had co over at so point, took the cup and rolled her eyes coquettishly at her little lover.
"Now, are you satisfied?"
"Satisfied, of course satisfied! Your fairness and kindness are now known to the world."
With a gentle clink of cups, Luo En teased Hera with a smile.
Now that Hercules served as an example, Hera's bad reputation as the ho-wrecker slayer and illegitimate child nesis would naturally fade away and beco a queen more people revered.
However, Hera couldn't care less about these things, her eyes slightly narrowed as she subtly leaned close to Luo En's ear.
"So, how do you plan to compensate ?"
Feeling a very obvious hint, Luo En stiffened slightly and looked at Hercules, radiant, on the floor with a look of deep grievance.
Why is it always you enjoying blessings, and bearing the brunt?
Don't you know how many tis your brother has sacrificed for you, both in the open and in secret?
While Luo En muttered to himself, a hot breath poured into his ear, bringing with it waves of tickling directly into his brain.
"Decided yet? Or should I decide for you?"
In the corner, Hera twisted her serpentine waist, jokingly asked, her breastplate unintentionally brushing Luo En's arm.
Since freeing herself from the chains of marriage, she seed to enjoy playing increasingly indecent gas with her little lover.
Such as making him lose composure in front of everyone...
The awkwardness under tension, the conquest between reluctance and compliance, was like a jar of fine wine, delivering a different kind of pleasure each ti.
Just as the gorgeous Queen of Heaven was about to further tease her little lover, she saw Luo En's expression change and he suddenly coughed violently.
"Hebei? What brings you here?"
"!"
Hera instantly stiffened, hurriedly distancing herself from her little lover, composing herself with dignified poise, and turned to look behind.
"He..."
Seeing the Divine Blood Heroes walking around as usual, Hera was montarily taken aback, then quickly realized what happened, her face turning black as her clenched teeth ground in irritation.
Think evading a debt is easy? Think again!
Hera burst out the door imdiately, launching a furious manhunt.
As the queen of heaven exited the scene, a figure carefully stepped out of the Labyrinth, relieved to let out a sigh of relief on the other side of the corner.
While he enjoyed being coy, one couldn't simply be coy all the ti, could they?
It was ti to get down to business when serious matters called.
anwhile, Luo En was getting acquainted with the origins, bloodlines, and abilities of each Divine Blood Hero, while also inquiring about the current situation of the chief gods and deities of the major city-states.
According to the size of the Giant Spirit Clan, him and Hera alone were not enough to defend Thessaly.
If the coastal walls had been built already, the chief gods and deities should be urged to converge as soon as possible.
By the way, based on the progress of the construction work and the words and deeds of the chief gods, he intended to analyze whether they were dragging their feet and whether they could truly be trusted.
Just as Luo En was covertly gathering intelligence, he inadvertently saw a handso youth holding on to dea's arm, refusing to let her leave, while the blond Jason was quietly chirping in support from the side.
Seeing this, his face darkened.
Why were there so many people in a rush to reincarnate today? Or is this what counts as normal moral values for Divine Blood Heroes?
"What are you doing!"
Luo En stepped forward in front of dea, looking sternly at the two.
With the chill of cold dread washing over them, the acutely sensitive Jason shrank his neck, frantically gesturing to the handso youth beside him.
The young man had a sudden realization, abandoning dea and grabbing Luo En's arm, urgently pleading for help.
"Brother-in-law, please talk so sense into my sister! She's refusing to leave with !"
Luo En was taken aback, then tentatively asked.
"You are...?"
"Absyrtus, Prince of Colchis and the brother of Miss dea. I've just helped them recognize each other," Jason quickly ca forward to introduce, also clarifying the misunderstanding for himself.
As a social butterfly of the banquet, after mingling around, he had gotten to know most of the heroes' backgrounds, bloodlines, and abilities. This Prince of Colchis was none other than Jason's newly befriended little brother.
After a few drinks, the naïve little Prince Absyrtus spilled his entire background like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, inadvertently revealing so family matters as well.
—For instance, he was born into the royal family of Colchis and had a sister who was taken by their aunt Circe to be raised and study witchcraft on the island of Aiaia since birth.
Having been away from ho for many years, both his father and mother missed their daughter dearly and repeatedly asked him to seek news of his sister during his travels.
However, due to the ti that had passed and lack of information, his search had made no progress.
Upon hearing this, the well-inford Jason imdiately thought of a certain witchcraft Queen who had shown brilliance in the Battle of Thessaly and brought Prince Absyrtus to her without delay.
But dea was clearly skeptical about this sudden appearance of a supposed relative. And without any tangible tokens or proof, the little Prince Absyrtus didn't help matters, leading to the dispute between them.
After listening to the account, Luo En pointed to himself.
"And brother-in-law?"
"Oh, that's what big brother Jason said. You and my sister have been flirty with each other, surely you've gotten together, and only you can convince her!"
The straightforward little prince answered without hesitation, cleanly throwing Jason under the bus.
Seeing the God of Wine smile at him, the jittery Jason leaped away like a frightened rabbit.
"You guys chat, I'm off ha, I don't wanna disturb!"
He sure ran fast...
Watching the blond dart away into the crowd, Luo En rolled his eyes, patted Prince Absyrtus's shoulder, and spoke to the two of them.
"There are too many people here, too many ears. Let's talk outside."
dea nodded lightly, clutching the hem of her brother's robe, following closely behind, her downcast eyes twinkling with excitent.
He didn't deny it?
He acknowledged it!
Brother-in-law... hehe... brother-in-law...
The waves of joy rising in her heart made dea find her brash and unfamiliar younger brother much more agreeable and trustworthy all of a sudden.
