Chapter 52 I'm back again!

The world is very big, but to the gods it is very small.

Why not travel among the chaos and explore a wider world?

Go to...the world that truly belongs to you...

Among the mountains, the overthrown former god-king Cronus was alone in the mountains, thinking about this problem in solitude.

He had a feeling that this issue might be very important to him, so important that if he couldn't think it through clearly, he would definitely face something more terrifying than destruction.

He walked deeper into the mountain.

Connected to the depths of the mountain is a rectangular-shaped passage. The walls on both sides are flat and smooth, with exquisite paintings and treasures hanging or inlaid on them. The mountain wall above the head is painted with stars and the beautiful faces of goddesses.

As Cronus moved forward, they retreated, as if time had passed and would never return.

Cronus remembered how they looked before, they were bright and bright, but he didn't know when he stopped paying attention to them, so the paintings were mottled and the treasures were covered in dust.

At the end of the passage is a deep pool, and there is no road in front of the deep pool.

Cronus squatted on the edge of the deep pool. The calm water was like a mirror, showing the scene of the human world.

Since his defeat in the God-King War, he has been hiding in the belly of this mountain, relying on the pond to observe the changes in the outside world.

A human village appeared in the pool.

Cronus looked at this place, and he discovered that gods and humans were actually very similar. The gods lived in small worlds, while humans lived in small villages.

They may know a little bit about the outside world, but they only have a simple concept of the world through the stories of others, their own fantasies and guesses. But in fact, many people have never stepped out of their villages throughout their lives.

The world is big, but it is not vast to them.

However, humans live together in order to survive. Because there are wolves, tigers and leopards in the outside world, they will face food crises, so they must unite together so that they can have time to look forward to tomorrow.

What are the gods for? Cronus asked himself.

He never worries about everything humans pursue and desire, because he is a god, eternal, and part of the rules, so as long as he wants, he can always get it, it is just a matter of how long it takes.

But he still chose to live in this small world like other gods, never thinking of going deep into chaos to explore the infinite possibilities.

Is it because the chaos is too vast and there are too many unknowns, so I feel afraid, or... because I am lonely, so I want to be recognized?

Cronus's eyes became blank, and it was at this moment that he ignored the image of the human world in the water mirror and saw his own reflection in the pool.

The reflection squatting on the edge of the pool is a middle-aged man with an unshaven beard. Although there is no emotion or anger on his face, it can make people feel lonely and frustrated.

The so-called appearance comes from the heart, it is nothing more than this.

Cronus laughed: "It turns out that I will also be affected by time, smoothing the edges and corners, and completely losing my arrogant and surly self."

"I'm not young anymore."

He stood up, revealing an image that was inexplicably a year older. His palms became rough and calloused, and his skin turned slightly darker.

At this moment, there is absolutely no trace of the former God King on his body, and he looks more like an ordinary mortal working diligently in the fields on the earth.

Stroking the mountain wall with his fingers, Cronus suddenly remembered two people, his wife Rhea, the goddess of time, and his teacher and best friend Uriah, the mountain god.

He and his wife Rhea symbolize the two sides of time, and when they are together, they symbolize complete time.

However, they eventually separated because he was greedy for the supreme power of the God King and imprisoned the children who were prophesied to overthrow him. However, this move became part of the promotion of the prophecy. From then on, he and his wife Rhea had a gap, and finally

They parted ways and were overthrown by their youngest son Zeus with the support of Rhea.

Since then, Cronus, who was trapped in the heart of the mountain, had no contact with her, and could not find the original feeling. After all, some people are lost forever once they are lost.

As for the mountain god Uriah, thinking about him, Cronus's smile became cheerful and seemed a little silly.

It goes without saying that he can still have the space of a mountain after defeat, instead of wasting eternity in the bottomless abyss.

As the oldest mountain god, Uriah is really like a mountain. No matter when you look back, he is always there, always silent, but always steady and reliable.

…

"The world is very big, but to the gods it is very small."

"Why not travel among the chaos and explore a wider world?"

"Go to...the world that truly belongs to you..."

Cronus didn't think about this problem, but he seemed to have figured it out.

He looked at the pool again, at the human village in the water mirror, but his mentality was completely different.

He... doesn't care anymore.

The prosperity fades away, taking away the beautiful scenery but also the dust in those charming eyes. The people who stay in the same place are finally revealed and can be seen and cared for again.

This is a brand new journey. Things never stay bad forever. They have ups and downs. While recognizing the highs, you must also acknowledge the lows. This way, you will not stay in the lows forever.

Cronus, he wants to return to Olympus to take back the throne of the God King. This is very difficult, but this time, it is not because of "greed", but because he wants to show his respect to those who still care about him.

Those who miss him make their voices heard.

He, Cronus, is back!

The rough palm stretched out to the mountain wall, and the moment the two touched, time without an exact form truly appeared in the present world, flowing like a river on the mountain wall.

His palm reached into the river, and when he stretched it out, he already held an axe.

【Current Battle Ax】

[Eternal Blessing: Blessing from the future to the present, hold it tightly, that is greatness]

[Stand time: never destroyed, only lost in the ripples of time]

[Deja vu: Destiny meets, all are heartbeats. When Cronus thinks of it, the battle ax of the current state will immediately appear in his hand, no matter when and where]

[Throughout the ages: Killing the past in the present, completely erasing the traces of a person’s existence, the real god-killing weapon]

Holding the battle ax tightly, Cronus walked out of the mountain for the first time after his defeat, and truly saw the scenery of the outside world.

It happened that a ray of divine power with the breath of spring and new life was wandering in the night sky in the distance. He stretched out his hand, trapped this ray of divine power in his palm, and casually erased the will mixed in it. He curiously observed the strange authority in the divine power.

"Why haven't you seen any new gods and authorities?"

…

At the same time, in a temple deep in Mount Olympus.

Rhea, the goddess of time and mother of the current god-king Zeus, was inexplicably horrified.

Without the slightest warning, she had already fallen from her great power, and her glory was no longer...
