Chapter 729: Chapter 260 Testing and Beginning

Ta Ta —-

Ta .

At the boundary between Tartarus and the Underworld, obscure fluctuations spread slightly.

The leaping law enveloped this area, ejecting a black shadow from the void.

In an instant, slight tremors spread throughout the Underworld, and the master of the Fields of Truth seemed to sense the change here.

But when Hades’ gaze fell, he only saw the restless edge of the Abyss.

Whether spontaneous or man-made, Hades couldn’t make a judgment.

He couldn’t help but associate it with the recent commotion.

“Underworld,” he said.

“What a troubled autumn…”

His voice was as deep as ever. “Troubled autumn” had a figurative and literal meaning.

Because it was indeed autumn in the Mortal Realm, and his matters never seemed to lessen. So beside Hades, Persephone was tending to the pomegranates she had planted, rather than staying on Mount Olympus.

Several sprigs of mint stubbornly grew next to the pomegranates, but the Queen of the Underworld clearly did not spare them even a glance.

Apart from the two present, probably no one remembered that boastful Naiad anymore. Even to this day, Persephone found that creature called Minthe somewhat annoying.

Just like… God-King Zeus. Simply existing made her feel nauseated.

“What’s wrong, worrying about the unrest caused by the World Power again?”

“I think you just overthink. Such matters should be considered by the God-King.”

Pruning the excess branches, Persephone nodded in satisfaction.

Her perennial hobby was to grow more plants in the Underworld.

“If the sky collapses, the tall will hold it up. If you want to bear the heavens, start by making yourself tall.”

“I want to, but wishing doesn’t make it so. I don’t want unnecessary considerations, either, but the city gates catch fire, and the fish in the moat suffer.”

Shaking his head, Hades saw the change on Persephone’s face, knowing she understood his meaning.

Yes, he referred to what was recently, for the deities, the razed Fields of Truth.

If even one Zeus was like this, who knew what price he, a small fish in this vast world, would pay if the world changed.

“I heard you brought back Zeus’s intentions this time. What did he say?”

Not wanting to dwell on these issues, Hades knew they couldn’t be rushed.

However, it was said that on Persephone’s return from Olympus, she carried Zeus’s command for him… which made Hades quite puzzled.

Things in the Mortal Realm had always been unrelated to him, and he rarely intervened, so what was intended this time?

“Strictly speaking, it wasn’t a command from Zeus. Hera privately approached me. But after hearing her thoughts, saying such matters could be known without Zeus is a joke.”

“She wants to attack Athens, to raze Athena’s mortal sanctuary, the Parthenon Temple, to the ground. Although she has made many preparations, it is not enough, so she hopes to involve the deities of the Underworld as well. That is her request.”

Spoken lightly, the Queen of the Underworld showed no personal emotion, “Will you agree?”

“Hera promised that after breaking Athens, part of it would be given to you as a gift. However, I think you don’t care about territories in the Mortal Realm, do you?”

“Something like that, but the deities of the Underworld?”

With a cold laugh, Hades recalled those so-called subordinates.

“Hera probably didn’t mean me, so it’s Eris and the others… ha, the Golden Apple was her gift, and aren’t they now more eager to follow Zeus’s command?”

“Let her communicate with them herself. If they are willing, I won’t stop them. After all… I can’t stop them.”

Naturally, it could be stopped, but doing so would imply that Hades was helping Athena.

Yet regarding his niece and sister, he had no intention of intervening.

Currently, few matters in the Mortal Realm truly concerned Hades. This war was not one of them.

“Fight on, fight on, let the blood flow into rivers.”

“But as long as you can’t defeat Zeus, what good does it do if you win?”
