[Greek mythology] Born to be arrogant

Diana's sixth sense has always been very accurate.

But this time, she actually hoped that her sixth sense would not be so accurate.

Today's Temple of Order is quieter and colder than usual.

Diana didn't act rashly, and gently placed the scepter on the edge of the throne, looking around from left to right.

Zeus's expression was as serious as ever, and the lightning sword at his feet was entwined with dazzling purple light; Athena lowered her head and kept calculating something, half of the table was piled up with discarded parchments.Iapetus—yes, that’s Iapetus, he occupied four seats by himself, looked at the scroll of order confidently, and showed a little smile from time to time.

And Hera—

She has been blocked outside the Temple of Order.

Diana's eyes paused for a moment on Hera, and she stretched out her hand to summon an attendant priest, and whispered a few words in his ear.The priest was stunned at first, then shocked, and finally nodded with a bitter face, turned and exited the temple.

Zeus glanced in Diana's direction, frowned, and said nothing.

Diana smiled at him, the corners of her mouth curved into a nice arc, and there was a hint of comfort in her eyes.

After a while, the priest just turned back to the temple and placed a clear moonstone in each of the four corners of the temple.

Diana smiled and nodded at him, indicating that he could leave.

The priest rushed out of Olympus with the fastest speed since he was born, and vowed never to return to the mountain.Even if Moon God had promised to cover him just now, he would never go back.

Diana looked away helplessly, half-closed her eyes, pretending to take a nap.

"Why isn't His Highness the Sun God here?" Iapetos said suddenly.

Diana's heart skipped a beat, and that strong feeling of uneasiness became more and more obvious.But on the surface, she still said lazily and calmly: "Oh, he was accidentally entangled in a difficult problem, and now he is recuperating in Delphi. So, let me come over."

Some rhetoric is reasonable and watertight.

The Sun God himself is already extremely powerful, and I am afraid that no one in the world can make him feel weak; if he says that he "accidentally got into a dead end", it will only make people feel that "Your Highness is devoted to learning"; Only the reason of "presenting in place of Apollo" can be explained.

Iapetos frowned, said in a low voice, "Is that so..." and there was no more to say.

Diana was still resting with her eyes closed, but her right hand was unconsciously pressed against her shoulder.She endured it for a while, but still couldn't bear the depression boiling in her chest, and couldn't help asking: "Lord Iapetus, your three sons are also absent."

None of Atlas, Prometheus, and Menoetius came.

"Oh." Iapetos found an excuse at random, "I sent them to the human world to search for 'the truth of all things'."

The moment "the truth of all things" came out, Diana clearly caught a glimpse of Zeus froze.

And Athena, who was writing furiously, cut a long slit in the parchment in an instant.

The principle of all things, in the God Realm, represents the supreme personality.

When he said this in front of God King Zeus, he was undoubtedly provoking.

Zeus stood up slowly, a frightening light flickered in his deep eyes.

The gods had never seen Zeus like this, and were almost terrified.Athena put down her pen, stood up with Hermes, and stopped Zeus from left to right to prevent him from suddenly going mad.Zeus' face was frighteningly black, and he stood motionless on the spot, staring at Iapetus, neither speaking nor making any movements.

Diana slowly raised her eyes, her gaze swept over Iapetos lightly, and she evoked a strange smile.

Iapetos shuddered for no reason.

The moon god's gaze was extremely cold, but with a slight flicker, it instantly made him feel like a thorn in his back.What frightened him the most was that the last time he felt the chills was when he met Chaos God Chaos.

How could a goddess of the moon, who was three generations behind her, have such sharp eyes?

Iapetus suddenly remembered the terrible rumor; when Apollo, the sun god, becomes golden-eyed, he will have unparalleled power—power enough to crush the entire world.

And in the body of the moon god, the same blood as the sun god flowed.

"Humph……"

The god who symbolizes human beings smiled slightly, strode to the scroll of order, smashed the crystal ball on the high platform with a wave of his hand, and wrote the first line on the scroll with a pointed quill Character:

The big earth should surround...

"The earth... should surround..."

A muffled groan resounded in the temple, and with the steaming clear light, it cast a hazy color in the temple.Diana had completely closed her eyes, followed Iapetus's handwriting, and said like singing:

"……sun……"

The moonlight gemstones at the four corners of the temple reflected the clear light, reflecting the bewildered faces of the gods.I don't know when it started, the gods have been lying on the throne in a mess, and in the huge temple of order, only the rustling sound of writing, and the raving voice of the moon god:

"...Spin...Turn..."

The moment the voice just fell, Iapetos turned his head suddenly, and saw the same expression on the faces of the gods.

A knowing smile.

"Sure enough" eyes.

The contempt of "I guessed it would be you early in the morning, that's why the sun god didn't show up for a long time".

and also……

And the moon god Diana, who was walking towards him step by step, glanced at him lightly with her unique indifferent eyes, and slightly bent the corners of her lips: "So it turned out to be you."

"You are more than 300 years early, my lord."

"I came across time and space and changed the fate of countless gods. Presumably I will also change your fate today."

"When the earth revolves around the sun, the gods—will fall into an eternal dusk!"

Just like a majestic mountain falling into the sea, it suddenly stirred up a thousand layers of huge waves.High and low chants sounded around Iapetos, he seemed to be drawn into a strange world, surrounded by countless colorful lines, the sky began to curl, the earth became scorched, and there were clusters of fire in the sky Descending from the very top of the sky, Athena's scream shook the axis of the universe:

"Apollo, the sun god, how dare you modify the rules of the world without authorization?!"

Ha ha.

Iapetus wanted to laugh, especially to laugh.

He watched Athena holding a spear, descending from Olympus to the curly earth; Linpisi father and son turned against each other and killed each other...

great.

He thought silently, turned his head silently, and said to the air: "Look, I avenged you."

There was no response from the scorched air, and there were bursts of mournful howls from the distant Temple of Order.He felt a kind of joy that he had never felt before, like a feather blown by the breeze, hanging lightly in mid-air, and the divine pattern on his left shoulder burst into dazzling light instantly, even brighter than the sun in the sky.

"That's the truth of everything," he said.

"See? Zeus, Cronus, and...the sleeping Uranus."

"Not only the earth, but even Venus, Venus, Mars, Ares, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus... all must revolve around the sun..."

"Crazy, gods."

"You will only think that this is the conspiracy of the sun god, and you will only turn against each other for the sake of temporary interests, because you have no idea what the real 'truth' is."

"Atlas, I order you to specify the rules for the motion of the stars; the sun should be at the focus of an ellipse—ha, Apollo, even you, the sun god, can't expect to get even the slightest benefit from it! You Don't you insist on the beauty of "the world follows strict rules"? I will tell you that the stars will abandon the perfect circle, and the rules of the stars will be swinging ellipses!"

Rumble!

Karala!

One after another, bright purple lightning strikes landed on the scorched ground, and the remaining human races began to be involved in the boundless flames of war.Gradually, the gods fell one by one, and the originally bright god's coat of arms dimmed to the point that there was no luster left.The blazing sun in the sky gradually moved away from the earth, suspended majestically in the center of the vast universe, and the scroll of order slowly closed.

"Where's the contradiction?" screamed the last of the dead goddesses. "Where is the 'self-contradictory'? Where is it!"

"I have to thank the sun god Apollo." Iapetus murmured, "Thanks to him for discovering the beauty of simplicity. Only when the earth revolves around the sun can every celestial body move in an orderly manner."

The shrill scream gradually died away.

The weeping chant gradually faded away.

The blazing sky fire gradually extinguished.

The scorched land began to revive, and the gods became a distant legend, annihilated in the yellowing scroll.

Nine stars ring the sun, the dusk of the gods.

A black figure came out from the afterglow of the setting sun, wearing a stone ring on his hand.

His face was a little pale, and his figure was a little staggering.

"You are right."

"Atlas and Menoetius have..."

"We cannot comprehend your greatness, Father."

"You will be immortal and will always be remembered by the world."

"The glory be with you."

"But you..."

Before he finished speaking, he fell heavily on the ground, and the lines on his left shoulder gradually dimmed, without any light.

Iapetos opened his eyes and roared heartbreakingly:

"Do not--"

That's too late.

"You will annihilate all the gods in the world, including your son Prometheus. Is this what you want? Iapetus." A very cold and calm voice came from all directions, revealing a commanding voice Chilling sharpness.

Iapetos gradually raised his head, and said, "You are Diana, the moon god Diana."
