29 Chapter 27: A lot of Convincing, 1218 BCE

[Pluto's POV]

I was now sitting with the others, along with a couple of tagalongs, like the 'king' and his family. The other eternals are staring at me with confusion and anger, for good reason I guess.

"So let me get this straight, you want to help this man, a man that we just met and we barely know?" questioned Kingo, confused as hell.

"I know it sounds bad, but hear me out." I tried to convince them.

"We're listening." said Ikaris, glaring daggers at me.

I coughed to clear my throat, and spoke. "He begged me to do it." I said with a straight face.

Gil facepalmed as I said that. "Are you serious?"

"Well, no, but come on, look at the young man." I pointed at the man, who looked hopeless as hell. "Take pity on this man, and besides, if I succeeded, we have a kingdom for ourselves, well, for a few decades until he and his sons die anyway."

"Pluto, we can't directly interfere with human conflicts." Ikaris said coldly, his eyes seemed to glow for a second.

"For once, I agree with Ikaris Pluto, I mean, helping Athenians kill the deviant is one thing, dethroning a king is another." Gil continued.

"Hey wait a minute, who said on directly interfering?" I questioned with a smug smile.

"What? We're going to help him right? That means we need to directly interfere!" argued Kingo.

"Oh no, it's not like that." I shook my head. "I will help them by 'convincing' the Corinthian king to help these guys."

"How?" Ikaris questioned, still suspicious.

"I have my methods boys, don't worry about it, if I interfere too much, Arishem will definitely appear." I shake it off.

Ikaris narrowed his eyes as he usually does. He stood up and looked me in the eye. "I'll be watching you Pluto, if you cross the line, I will stop it."

"Can you even do it?" I questioned smugly, which made him snort silently. He sat down again, not saying a thing.

"So? Am I allowed to do this?" I questioned.

Gil sighed and stood up. "You do you man, I'm not going to risk it, It's scary when Ajak gets mad."

"I'm with Gil in this one, I don't want to follow you this time P, you'll risk it yourself." Kingo continued, also walking away.

"Fine, you wait for me here." I smiled. "It'll be quick."

Then, the others started to pack, preparing to continue the journey, or really, after this, we're going to Sparta to finish the last of them, after that, we're going home.

And so I walked to the humans, and patted the man. "Fine, I will help you."

Tyndareus or whatever his name is shrieked like a madman. "Oh thank you O' Immortal One! I will make sure to worship you and give you anything you want once I've become king!"

"Eh, don't worship me, it's a nuisance." I shook it off. "This is just for my boredom anyway, traveling with Ikaris is a bit of a pain."

"Oh truly , thank you!" he shrieked again.

I then looked at his wife who is pregnant. When I looked at her belly, I felt something. It feels strange, it's like a… thread was suddenly connected… huh… weird.

"What's your name?" I questioned the woman.

"Leda… O' Immortal one…" she seemed scared of me, like she doesn't like me staring at her…

Wait…

Leda?

Helen's mother?

"Say… have you ever laid with a swan before?" I questioned suspiciously.

"P-Pardon me?" she stuttered.

"You know… Zeus's many 'incarnations'?"

"O-Oh! Yes! This baby belongs to Zeus O' Immortal One!" she yelled, but she seemed to side eye, Tyndar- you know what I'm going to call him Ty from now on, yes, Ty, she seemed to be side eyeing Ty, which is weird…

Zeus isn't real right?

So that means Ty got cucked?

Ooph.

"Right… just be careful of Hera's wrath, I know both of them, Hera is a possessive wife, I would be scared for my life if I were you." I shrugged, which made her gulp.

"T-Truly? Y-you know them?" she stuttered.

"Oh yes, Hera is a rather cruel woman to those who stole her husband, who knows, today you're here, tomorrow, you'll be in the embrace of Poseidon deep under the sea because of her jealousy."

She gulped loudly once again, seemingly regretting everything, truly, this is gold.

"Okay, you're coming with me to Corinth." I said to Ty, who looked pale and happy at the same time.

"C-Corinth? But my kingdom is in Sparta O' Immortal one?" he questioned.

"I can't help you directly, so I'll provide you with an army instead."

"Oh, W-Well, I'm thankful either way."

[1218 BCE, Corinth]

We are now standing in front of the Corinthian king. Ty looked nervous, I was behind them. The plan was that he was the one who'll talk to him, and I'll do the 'convincing'.

Ty calmed his nerves down like a true king, and spoke with charisma. "I am the rightful king of Sparta, and I am here to ask your support to reclaim my throne."

The Corinthian king raised an eyebrow, amused. "And why should I do that? Why shouldn't we arrest you right now and send you to the Spartan king now as a sign of friendship?"

"Because he is a usurper! Not worthy of the throne!" he shouted. "If you help me, I will make sure our two kingdoms will benefit through our relationship!"

The King of Corinth narrowed his eyes and stood up from his throne. He walked down the stairs, but he suddenly stopped. He looked dazed, as if he was hypnotized.

Well, it's because of Mephia.

"I can't believe I'm used this way…" she whispered in my head.

"Well, your power is this, so I'll use it this way." I shrugged in my head.

That's right. A mini version of Mephia was slithering under the king's robe and onto his ear.

Once she's there, she uses her power to 'charm' the king, and whisper suggestions to him.

Honestly, I don't want to hear what she said, it's quite disgusting for a virgin like me… and I'm not in the mood right now, which means it's just cringy to hear.

Anyway, I saw the king walk back to his throne much to his subjects' confusion. I could see that his small dick is rising underneath those clothes, it's working hehehe, this is fun.

The Corinthian king then sat down. His face was blushing like crazy. "V-Very well, I-I will help you." he couldn't concentrate at all it seems.

"M-My King!" his subjects started to protests, but with a single shout, everyone shut up,

"Silence!" he said, still blushing. "It is my final decision, I will help the rightful king of Sparta using my entire army."

"T-Thank you, king of Corinth." Even Ty was surprised by this sudden development.

"D-Don't worry my friend, in the meantime, y-you are welcome to stay at our palace at any time."

—

"Thank you! O' Immortal One!" shouted Ty in front of me, he wanted to kiss my feet, but I kicked his face instead.

"I did my part now, it's up to you to take your throne back." I stay away from him. "Now, I must leave."

"L-Leave?" he questioned. "O' Immortal One, you're leaving so soon?"

"I have jobs to do." I said. "I will watch your steps in the next few years, young one. I will be around Sparta after this."

"Then you must come to our palace in Sparta after I take my throne O' Immortal One!"

"We'll be sure to stop by." I nodded. "Alas, it's time for me to go. Farewell." I walked away, but then I stopped, then turned to Leda once more. "Remember, be careful with Hera." I said to her seriously.

She nodded nervously, sweating bullets. Then I truly walked away from them this time, to the other Eternals to continue my journey once more.
