Chapter 108: Chapter 85 Request

Translator: 549690339

Within the special domain supported by the Tome of All Spells, Selene quickly fell into meditation amid the fragrance of incense.

Without the anticipated heart-stopping excitement, without the sudden appearance of black-clad figures locking her away, Selene’s first journey to the Spirit Realm in her supreme life was surprisingly ordinary.

Guided by her close friend, the Moon supreme-rulerdess’s spiritual body observed the crescent moon in the first layer of the Spirit Realm. Like Hecate, Selene, being supreme in essence, possessed potential far beyond that of ordinary beings. It was almost immediately after truly mastering meditation that she inscribed the lunar phase onto her spiritual body.

What was different from Hecate was that as the Moon supreme-rulerdess, Selene vaguely felt a sense of completion. Her intuition told her that if she could inscribe all seven lunar phases onto her spiritual body, she would follow some mysterious connection and resonate with the seven crescent moons in the Spirit Realm.

As for what this resonance would cause, she had no idea.

“Look, Hecate, I did it!”

After spinning around in the clearing, streams of water turned into ribbons, dancing in the air and winding around the arms and waist of the Moon supreme-rulerdess. This was the first time that Selene had influenced nature by means other than supreme power. Although the force was still weak, she could see the direction for improvement.

“Mmm-hmm”

A soft hum indicated understanding. Hecate remembered that she was even happier than Selene the first time she cast a spell. After all, Selene had supreme power to use before, but she did not.

No, more accurately, she almost didn’t have any, but there was still a bit.

“This is just a small application, I will show you—”

She was ready to stir up a small tsunami to impress her younger sister. Suddenly, however, Hecate turned her gaze southeast, a smile forming at the corner of her mouth.

“That was fast, have they found me already?”

“Stele, how did you know that Golden Mane could deal with Metis?”

Somewhat surprised, Hecate, although not fond of the well-known supreme-rulerdess of Wisdom, still acknowledged her intelligence.

She did not expect that in just a few months, Zeus would have dealt with her and then came knocking at her door.

[Perhaps it’s because Zeus has a knack for dealing with supreme-rulerdesses, that must be his talent.]

[But you should be careful not to be deceived by his sweet talk.]

Snorting, Hecate didn’t think she could be deceived. But indeed, her younger sister needed to be more vigilant.

After all, she was well aware of her previous dream in supreme-rulerhood. Who knows whether Selene would start thinking differently once Zeus gradually obtained power equal to that of the supreme-rulerhood.

Although it seems now that Selene has found a new goal in witchcraft, Hecate cannot guarantee that she has truly given up her previous ideas.

“Hmm?”

“Is someone coming?”

By her side, the Moon supreme-rulerdess noticed the change in her friend’s expression and couldn’t help but ask.

“Yes, it’s that Golden Mane who bullied you last time. It looks like he has found someone successful, Metis has given him some advice, and now he’s come to me.”

Nodding slightly, in the direction of Hecate’s gaze, a dark spot was already appearing on the horizon.

Seeing this, Selene stopped practicing the basic witchcraft she had just learned and hurriedly joined Hecate. She had to admit, her last encounter with Zeus had left her with a rather bad impression.

As they waited quietly, it wasn’t long before Zeus, who was approaching from afar, arrived before them, riding the thunder.

“We meet again, both of you. Beautiful supreme-rulerdess of the Moon, I apologize once more for my earlier recklessness.”

Zeus greeted them politely, seemingly not noticing how Selene subtly positioned herself behind Hecate.

After all, such positioning was meaningless; even if the supreme-rulerdess of the Moon seemed gentle, she was still a notch above the red-haired witch.

“Ah, we meet again, Golden Mane, but what brings you here?”

With a slight tilt of her delicate chin, Hecate asked knowingly.

“I’ve already informed you of the matters concerning you. As it stands, you appear to have found yourself an assistant, so what more do you want?”

It seems wisdom isn’t always useful. There are some things that just can’t be solved with the mind alone, such as witchcraft, magical potions, or prophecies. Without a doubt, that is why he had come.

His mouth twitching, Zeus was not very fond of being called ‘Golden Mane.’ But considering he needed something from her and was also unable to defeat her, he decided to bear it for the moment.

“Lady Hecate, since you already know of my origins, you must also understand the responsibility I bear.”

“My siblings are still imprisoned by my tyrannical father. Although I escaped, ever since the day I learned the truth, there hasn’t been a moment when I haven’t longed to rescue them.”

“I need your help,” Zeus said to the red-haired witch before him, his expression genuine, “If I can save my siblings and overthrow my cruel Father supreme-ruler, I am willing to swear an oath upon the Styx River to grant you the power you deserve.”

However, Hecate was clearly not swayed by Zeus’s words. She cared not for power, for she would not allow it to constrain her. The moment she was cast aside by the current Divine King marked her destiny to go against the mainstream Deity Race.

After all, Zeus was not yet the Divine King, and his current promises were nothing more than empty words.

‘Empty words,’ an interesting choice of words, and at this moment, Hecate found it quite fitting of Zeus’s attitude.

“Promising the future as a pledge, yet you still might not be the one from the Prophecy, Zeus.”

She waved her hand dismissively, but the idea of troubling the Divine King was genuinely intriguing to her.

“However, if you can promise me one thing, I might indeed help you once, provided that you don’t plan on having me join you in your assault on the Divine King.”

Though Hecate thought that Metis would never come up with such a ludicrous idea, she made her stance clear beforehand.

She only intended to beat the drums from the sidelines and make the detestable Divine King suffer a loss, not to confront him directly.

Her power was still too weak, and even with the myriad utilities of the Book of All Laws, she couldn’t last a few moves in front of that sovereign.

“Of course, I am not so presumptuous. The strength of my father is well known among the supreme-rulers.”

Shaking his head, Zeus asked, “Then may I know, what is your request?”

“I want the Moon in the Sky. From now on, it will be mine, no longer your concern.”

“I want you to swear on the Styx River and the Spirit Realm, that for whatever reason, you shall not retract your promise to me.”

With some clarity, Zeus glanced at the Moon supreme-rulerdess hiding at Hecate’s side. Undoubtedly, a minor celestial body like that was of no concern to Hecate; she was merely securing this right for her friend.

And so, under the watchful eyes of the two supreme-rulerdesses, Zeus solemnly promised:

“No problem, Lady Hecate. If I can defeat my father and become the new lord of both the Earth and the Sky, then from that point on, the Moon in the night sky, as well as its surrounding dominion, will belong to you.”
