Erebus's plan was simple, so simple that it hardly counted as a plan at all. He merely outlined a hypothetical situation.
As long as Zeus could somehow provoke Laine into striking first, Erebus would follow through on his promise and immediately come to his aid, and perhaps he wouldn't be alone in doing so.
Beyond Zeus and himself, he had thought of several beings who could pose a threat to Laine. And they had ample reasons to act against him, reasons that could even become a problem for Zeus after everything had ended.
Yes, a problem for Zeus, since he never really intended to create a Divine King who would rule over everything... and once he achieved his desires, the existence of the Divine King would become a nuisance.
"It sounds feasible, but how do you plan to guarantee you'll keep your word? The Styx River cannot bind you, that is something we both know," Zeus said.
