Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years-Chapter 843 Zeus cooking himself?
?William was enjoying some fruit on Villingili Island in the Maldives when Zeus showed up unexpectedly.
"That was quick, wasn't it?" William had thought that Zeus would at least have a big showdown with Uranus and the others.
But given how quickly Zeus returned, it seemed a bit too fast.
When he extended his divine sense towards the Thunder Sanctum...
What a mess!
Odin and Uranus had been testing him repeatedly, asking if he would intervene in the war between the Ultimate Force Alliance and the Divine Alliance.
He hadn't interfered, right?
But after all the trouble Odin and Uranus went through to take down the headquarters of the Divine Alliance, both of them just walked away.
"What's going on with you guys?" William couldn't help but feel frustrated.
Zeus explained earnestly, "Didn't Odin and Uranus want to rule the Divine Realm? I let them have it to avoid further suffering for the living beings. There shouldn't be a problem with that, right?"
William pondered, "But now Odin and Uranus are refusing to take over the territories of the Divine Alliance... Do you want to go back?"
Clearly, Zeus was unaware of the subsequent events and was utterly astonished, "Are they sick or something?"
"Must be something serious."
"I'm not going back either. I finally got out, and they've taken over everything. They can't just decide they don't want it anymore," Zeus scoffed, "There's no such logic in this world."
Seeing Zeus's attitude, William couldn't help but ask curiously, "You weren't just waiting for them to attack your temple, were you?"
Zeus was slightly taken aback and laughed, "Master, what are you saying? I never thought that way."
"I've always worked diligently as the king of gods. My stepping down today was also to avoid reigniting war in the Divine Realm."
"Is that so?" William was somewhat skeptical.
"Of course!" Zeus continued, "I was managing everything well, why would I wait for them to attack me?"
William wanted to suggest that since Uranus and the others had given up on occupying the Divine Alliance territories, maybe Zeus could go back?
But he never voiced that thought.
Zeus was making it too obvious.
"Master, how about I show you something? I've improved my cooking skills recently." Zeus rubbed his hands excitedly. As the king of gods, he rarely had the chance to cook for others. The last time they met, he didn't get the chance to show off his skills because of Odin's interference.
In this world, besides William, he couldn't think of anyone else worthy of eating his cooking.
"Zeus, you can cook? I... may I try it?" Alice curiously sized up Zeus. She had seen Zeus in movies before, where he was always portrayed as solemn and serious, usually played by a middle-aged man.
But the Zeus in front of her looked somewhat slender, with pale skin and a youthful vibe, hardly the solemn figure she expected, especially not when he was excitedly rubbing his hands.
Zeus cooking himself?
Alice looked at Zeus with curiosity.
"Miss Alice, if you would like to try, of course, you can."
"Thank you!"
Alice's own cooking skills were, to put it mildly, disastrous, the kind that even dogs wouldn't touch, so she was quite impressed that Zeus, despite his high position, had managed to learn such a skill.
It must be said, Zeus's culinary skills were quite good. Using just some vegetables picked on the island, he managed to create a dish that was cool, fresh, and full of flavor.
Anyone who had spent time with William had usually picked up good cooking skills.
"You're not going back to your temple, so where do you plan to go?" William could tell that Zeus definitely didn't want to return.
All that talk of the welfare of the mortals and the stability of the Divine Realm, he wasn't planning to deal with it anymore.
William wasn't the type to force issues.
Zeus asked, "Where do you plan to go next?"
"Do you want to come with me?" William caught the hint.
"Let's travel around," William glanced at Alice and continued, "I haven't spent much time with Alice lately. We plan to travel around the Divine Realm and then head back to the Prime World."
"If you really don't want to go back, then travel with me." William disliked compelling others. Zeus clearly wanted a break, and he couldn't force him back to work as a master.
He himself wouldn't want to do something he disliked, so he wouldn't persuade others to do so either.
William knew if he were in Zeus's shoes, having worked for hundreds of thousands of years without a break or a change of job, he would have quit long ago.
The emperors in Earth's history at least got to enjoy themselves and had pursuits.
Zeus had reached the pinnacle of power, and his desires were not asintense as those of Earth's historical emperors.
He didn't seek immortality, wealth, or power,Zeus was simply too exhausted.
"Can I?" Zeus's eyes lit up when William agreed.
Being by William's side was his greatest wish and his only pursuit.
"Of course, you can. You're my disciple, and we haven't seen each other in a long time. Come travel with me," William smiled.
Back in the day, William, having nothing better to do, had come across the homeless brothers Poseidon, Zeus, and Hades and taught them the use of divine magic.
After the brothers defeated Cronus, it was William, again out of boredom and seeking some amusement, who divided Cronus's power among them, legitimizing their rule over their respective domains.
Zeus had always been William's favorite as a child.
That's why he was the strongest among the brothers and became the king of gods.
But he could never forget the days he spent living with William.
With William's affirmation, Zeus was even more excited and asked, "Master, where are we heading next?"
William said, "You'll need to change your identity a bit,otherwise, it would be too troublesome."
Zeus quickly pulled out a white mask and put it on his face.
To anyone other than William, Zeus, whether in features or aura, underwent a drastic transformation, his power appearing to be at the Mortal Deity level...
William glanced at Zeus's mask and chuckled, "Still carrying that around?"
"Of course, it was the first gift you gave me." Zeus seemed to revert to the lively, adorable boy who had once followed William the Obliterator.
William added, "I still have to fulfill their two wishes."
The remaining unfulfilled wishes of Rhadamanthus and Jesus were on his mind, and since he had promised them, he intended to see them through.
"Mr. Johnson, I don't want to be a deity anymore,I just want to see what lies beyond this universe. I've heard about the Cosmic Entity Guardians' battle. Mr. Johnson, could you take me to see it?" Jesus asked sincerely. He had existed since ancient times, had lived long enough, and had never seen beyond the thirteen universes. That was his wish.
