61 Chapter 75: Feelings and Atlas.

Atlas, the Titan who was condemned by Zeus to hold the skies of Olympus, looked calmly in Rao's direction; he was judging whether Rao was worthy of being the new king of Olympus.

He accepted Thanatos' proposal to defeat Rao for a simple reason; he no longer wanted to hold the heavens on his back. He was tired, he just wanted to rest.

At first, he thought Rao would be an easy opponent to defeat, but the reality was very different than he imagined.

Rao is strong, very strong. He doesn't have many allies, but his divinity was very heavy and suffocating. Atlas looks at the sword of Olympus; 'That sword is amplifying Rao's divinity, but if the new king of Olympus was not worthy, he would not even be raising that sword. After all, the blade of Olympus is very arrogant; the blade just chooses the most worthy beings to exercise all their power. '

As one of the oldest titans of Olympus, he understood a little more about the blade of Olympus.

Despite being created by Zeus, over time, the sword began to gain awareness.

Atlas ignores Rao and Thanatos' fight and he looks at the horizon. 'This war has been going on for a long time, and the new god-king of Olympus is using a lot of his divinity. He is like a beacon; a beacon that attracts everything around him ...'

"Hyperion, I will side with Rao." Atlas spoke in a neutral tone that contained no emotions.

Hiperion was surprised, he looked at his brother in shock. "Why?"

As he continued to look at the horizon, Atlas said: "Hyperion, my foolish brother ... Can't you feel it? The level of this battle has attracted the gods of other pantheons. If we don't choose a side and get together under a flag, all the gods of Mount Olympus will die ... Just like the Nordic pantheon, we will be exterminated. "

Hyperion and the titans who were still alive looked at the horizon in shock. They tried to feel something, but they couldn't feel anything ... But, despite having their doubts, they didn't dare question the words of Atlas that was once said to be the strongest titan.

"Wouldn't Thanatos be able to lead us? You could even lead us, why are you going to trust a foreign god? "

Atlas looks at Hyperion: "Rao is a king god of two pantheons; if we give him enough time, he will grow strong. Much stronger than the other king gods; he will become a force that cannot be ignored in the universe."

Atlas looks at Thanatos with cold eyes: "I didn't like to see our brothers being used as a weapon of war by Hecate; I'm pretty sure Thanatos doesn't care about the Titans. He just wants the throne of Olympus, he's obsessed after it since Ouranos took the throne. "

He looks at his own hands: "And I am not worthy enough to lead Olympus, I am just a warrior ... A warrior who needs a king."

Hyperion bites his lips. "... If you follow Rao, I will follow you, brother."

"Me too."

"Me too."

The Titans agreed with Hiperion, for them Atlas was like a leader.

"But Rao will forgive us?" A titan asked.

Atlas shows a small smile. "Rao is a merciful king, his attitude towards Oceanus is proof of my words. He did not kill our brother, he just removed his divinity ... Rao decided to kill his enemies because he was at a great disadvantage. When fighting with thousands of enemies, you cannot afford not to kill; he is not naive. He knew that if he did not kill, he would be at a great disadvantage. He has the intelligence to act when necessary and his actions always have meaning, he does nothing useless. "

Hyperion and the other Titans open their eyes in shock, they had never seen Atlas praise a being so highly in their entire existence.

...

Thanatos POV.

Since I was born, I was invincible. I was death; I was the end point for all living beings and gods on Mount Olympus.

No one dared to offend me, the only being who could do anything to me was my mother, Nyx.

As the entity of the night, she had complete control over death. She was the only one who could do anything against me, and I didn't care about that. After all, she was neutral, she did nothing, she just watched everything.

I call myself Nyx's son, but even that is wrong. I started to exist when the energies of two powerful entities came together for a brief moment; the energy belonged to Nyx and 7\88888888888m, 99999999999999994''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

+.

All entities that were not born out of primordial chaos are considered second-generation entities.

In a way, I'm just a part of the energy of Nyx and Erebus.

Nyx, Erebus, Gaia and Tartarus, these are the true entities and they are the strongest. I envied these beings a little; I wanted to have the power they exercise, but I accepted what I am. [A / N: In other mythology books, Eros was the primordial entity of love, he was the entity that was born out of primordial chaos, but in other stories, he was Aphrodite's son, in this story, I'm using his origin as the son of Aphrodite and Ares.]

After all, only two beings were above me, my mother and the primordial chaos itself.

But everything changed when Ouranos declared himself king of the gods; Ouranos did not become stronger or weaker when he declared himself king of the gods, but he gained a unique authority ...

The authority to manipulate the divinities of all gods and entities; I found this authority dangerous, but I also envied that power. I wanted that power for me; if I had that power, I could become stronger than my mother Nyx .

Thousands of years went by and I didn't get that power for myself, but I was patient. I had several chances to become the king of Olympus, my first chance was when Cronos betrayed his father Ouranos. The second chance was when Zeus rebelled against his father Cronos, the third chance was when Hera organized a riot against Zeus.

I had several chances, but I am unable to become the king of Olympus; it is as if fate is saying that I was not fit enough.

I was angry, I started planning a rebellion that would take Zeus out of power, but ...

This god appeared ...

Rao, the god of the sun, heat, and life ... He appeared ... He alone managed to do something I wanted for millennia. Wielding the strongest weapon made by a god of Olympus, he defeated Zeus and became the new king of Olympus.

I couldn't stand it !! The throne of Olympus must be mine !! I will not allow a foreign god to become the new king of Olympus !!

Carrying these feelings in my heart, I wielded my scythe towards the new king of Olympus !! 'The throne of Olympus must be mine!'
