Chapter 23 - The Titans

Lorne could not help but snort coldly when he heard this. "Apollo? That coot? Is he worthy?"

His voice was very disdainful, causing Damalis to be stunned for a moment before she became very nervous. which side was this god on? Humans were not clear about the wars and factions among the gods.

"I'm sorry, Lord, I didn't know!"

Damalis quickly apologized.

"Alright! Do not worry too much about that. You can't remain in Troy anymore. I'll bring you to a place where you can tell me more."

Lorne planned to bring the city-state princess to Athens and tell Athena about this matter. Then, they would visit a city that would grow very famous in the future.

Damalis did not say anything when she heard that. She could only agree. She looked at the place where she had lived for more than ten years. It was filled with memories and pain.

In the end, Lorne held her and disappeared from the spot. When the city guards came in, there was no one but the unconscious High Priest.

...

Athens was very far from here, by human standards. For Lorne, it was only a ten-minute journey.

Damalis had never flown before, nor had she traveled this far. As she looked at the scenery around her, her originally nervous heart completely calmed down. She was even a little excited.

'Is this how gods view the world? I wish to be like them! Free and unfettered!'

Damalis muttered to herself, looking forward to it.

Lorne looked at her and did not say anything. He did not expect this woman to be so bold.

"Actually, gods are not free and unfettered!"

Lorne read her thoughts. He answered her.

Damalis was stunned. She did not expect this handsome god to actually answer her.

"But this is why I'm bringing you with me. You indeed have the potential to be a god. Let's wait until we get to Athens!"

"Do you know the goddess of wisdom, Athena?"

Damalis looked at Lorne excitedly.

"That's right! Have you heard of her?"

Lorne was a little curious.

Damalis quickly nodded. "That's right! Women worship her very much! She taught us many things and even protected humans. It's a pity that our city of Troy is very far away from her."

Lorne shook his head. Although he knew that Athena held a high status in human civilization, he did not expect human women to idolize her.

Lorne did not talk to her after that. It did not take long for them to arrive at the city of Athens. However, he was shocked by the sight that greeted him. The city of Athens, which was rumored to be very prosperous, had now turned into ruins.

Damalis also did not expect that this place would turn into ruins. She was a little stunned.

Lorne's face turned ashen. He could not sense any traces of Athena. Even if Athena was not at home, she would definitely return home after such a huge incident. But now, it seemed that.., the humans were mournfully cleaning up the ruins. It had clearly been some time.

There was only one possibility. Athena had been taken away.

He was a little enraged. He flew directly to the sky above the city. At this moment, the surviving humans all knelt down to pay their respects.

"I am a friend of Athena's! What exactly happened? What has happened to your patron Goddess?"

Lorne's voice spread throughout the city. The originally sad humans were stunned when they heard Lorne's words. Then, they were overjoyed and said loudly.

"Great God! Please save our Goddess!"

"The Goddess Athena was outnumbered and captured by four other gods!"

"Great, our Goddess can be saved!"

"Great God! As long as you can save the goddess Athena, I will be your most loyal believer."

...

All kinds of prayers came from all directions and accurately entered Lorne's ears.

When he heard the news, his heart moved. Could it be the Titans?

That's right, only they had the motive and strength to pull this off.

At this moment, Lorne was extremely furious. He understood what the Titans were getting at. Since Zeus could kidnap their women, they could also kidnap the Olympians, especially Athena, who was Zeus' daughter.

It was a well thought-out maneuver, but they had overlooked one situation, which was the relationship between Athena and Lorne.

"Very good! Cronus! I didn't want to cause trouble for you, but you're actually causing trouble for me?"

Lorne was extremely furious. Who in the world did not know that Athena was favored by Lorne? But you guys are blatantly slapping me, Lorne, in the face. Are you looking down on me, Cronus?.

The more Lorne thought about it, the angrier he got. He directly grabbed Damalis and flew into the sky, quickly flying towards the Titan Court. Damalis felt Lorne's anger and was so scared that she did not move, allowing Lorne to hold her by the collar.

...

On the other side, Oceanus and the others had grabbed Athena and were flying towards the Titan Court. Athena was furious. She felt that she had been very unlucky recently. If not Titans, then it was beasts in Tartarus. She cursed her misfortune.

"Oceanus, what are you doing? Do you want to start a new war?"

Athena had not fully recovered. In addition, the other party was one of the strongest Titans, Oceanus. When she was cornered, they easily captured her within seconds. This made her very helpless.

"Hmph! The Olympians threw the first stone! You can only blame your misfortune for this!"

Oceanus shook his head. The last group of people directly returned to the meeting hall of the Titan Court. The Titans who had long received the news were overjoyed. Only one of them was slightly worried.

"Hmph! This time, let's see how Zeus handles this!"

"That's right! This is a huge victory!"

"That's right! I heard that Athena is an extremely intelligent goddess! She's very beautiful! Hehe!"

The Titans were discussing amongst themselves, and Oceanus and the others were very happy.

However, Cronus was still in seclusion to recover his strength and did not appear.

"Oceanus, this will hurt Olympus. Let's see them deal with this!"

Hyperion was also very excited at this moment.

Although Oceanus did not say anything while enjoying everyone's flattery, the smile on his face conveyed his current mood.

"Ahem!"

One of the Titans interrupted the enthusiasm of the crowd.

The Titans were stunned, turning to look at a worried Iapetus. They were all puzzled, especially Oceanus. He asked curiously, "What's wrong? My brother, is there a problem?"

He knew that his brother was very intelligent, and his son Prometheus held the title of Prophet.

"Haven't you investigated the relationship between Athena and Lorne? I heard that Athena was his lover!"

Iapetus broke the news with a worried face.

The Titans froze.
