After comforting Athena, Lorne also went into seclusion. As his strength continued to increase, he would be able to refine even more runes on his divine sword.
Currently, he had already refined 27 divine runes, and was in the process of refining the 28th divine rune.
The power in his body grew purer and stronger. Combined with his divine sword, he could crush and shatter the surrounding space.
If not for his body suppressing such a force, the Alps would have been leveled to the ground by now.
Lorne’s hands formed complicated hand seals, and the pure energy in his divine core continuously washed over the divine runes.
Twenty-seven bright light strips lit up inside the divine sword, like chains. Now, the twenty-eighth light strip was faintly discernible, slowly condensing from the weak light spots into a bright chain.
However, no one knew how long this process would take. As time passed, the light strip became brighter and brighter, just like how Lorne’s mood was getting better and better.
Suddenly, the originally bright light spots melted into a ball, and then transformed into a chain. Immediately, the divine sword pulsed with new levels of power, and the sword body emitted a buzzing sound.
Lorne’s power finally disappeared, and the energy within the divine spark also slowly stopped flowing. Lorne opened his eyes, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
He succeeded! He had already refined the twenty-eighth divine rune. The aura emitted by the divine sword was becoming more and more terrifying, and the power he displayed was also becoming stronger and stronger.
He prepared to refine the next divine rune, but in the end, he shook his head. No, it seemed that he had spent enough time here.
Lorne decided to leave his seclusion.
Athena and Damalis were talking, they heard the commotion and looked over. When they saw Lorne come out, they were delighted.
“Lorne, you’re finally out!”
Athena said with a smile.
Lorne walked over and looked at the two of them. “Yes! This took quite a while. How long has it been?”
“My lord, it’s been a year. You’ve really been a long time this time!”
Damalis answered with a chuckle.
“Uh!” Lorne knew that it had been a long time, but he did not expect it to be so long. He thought for a moment and continued to ask, “Right, what’s the current state of the world? What’s the situation like?”
“We were just talking about it. There haven’t been any major events this year. Basically, Zeus and the other two are just fighting among themselves without a care for the Titan Court. The Olympians are furious. Many gods have left that place, but recently, for some reason, the three brothers have joined forces and are preparing to deal with the Titan Court first!”
Naturally, Damalis did not know about the outside world, so Athena took over.
Lorne was a little surprised after hearing it. He did not expect the three of them to really put aside their differences and work together to deal with the Titan Court first.
Had they finally come around to the dangers of Cronus?
Lorne guessed to himself.
“When are they going to make a move?” Lorne suppressed his inner thoughts and continued to ask Athena. After all, the other party was an Olympian and had to know more than others.
Athena nodded. “Probably in the next few days! They are consolidating their strength and will need some time. I think it’s about time!”
“That’s good! It’s too boring staying here anyway! Let’s go take a look!”
Lorne thought for a while and suggested with a smile.
He did not expect to be greeted with such a blockbuster the moment he exited. He was not going to interfere, but he could watch some good soap opera.
“Ah?”
Athena and Damalis were stunned.
Lorne did not explain. He asked the two of them to pack up and prepare to go out. Damalis was a little excited because this was her first trip ever since meeting Lorne. She had been holding it in for a long time.
The gods of the entire world were very concerned about Olympus. When they saw such movement, some of the more acute onlookers also guessed that the battle that they had been waiting for a long time was about to begin.
All eyes turned to the Titan Court. Many of the neutral gods had the same thoughts as Lorne and rushed to the Titan Court.
Pontus and Aphrodite were of the same thoughts. They left the deep sea and rushed to the Titan Court.
Although Aphrodite was an Olympian, she had Pontus’ brother. She was rarely ever seen in Mount Olympus. As for the fight between the three brothers, she distanced herself from it, knowing that they would try to rope her in on account of her brother.
Coincidentally, she bumped into Lorne and the others who had left Mount Olympus.
Pontus was overjoyed. He still viewed Lorne favorably, so he instantly decided to travel together with Lorne. Lorne was fine with it, but Athena and Aphrodite were sizing each other up and secretly competing against each other.
As a woman, Athena felt that Aphrodite had a different opinion of Lorne, which made raised her guard up. She knew this Olympian goddess very well. Her appearance was not inferior to hers, and she definitely beat her when it involved appealing the male gaze.
Aphrodite knew of the relationship between Athena and Lorne, so she immediately looked at Athena with a scrutinizing look.
Lorne and Pontus had finished greeting each other and were about to introduce Athena to the two of them when Lorne suddenly felt that the atmosphere turning a little chilly. Looking at the aura of the two women, Lorne felt that something was not right.
“Ahem, Athena, let me introduce some to you. This is Pontus, the first of the Sea Gods.”
Therefore, he had no choice but to force himself to interrupt the silent confrontation between the two of them.
Athena nodded at Pontus and greeted him. The latter also smiled cordially.
Then, he looked at Aphrodite. “There’s no need for me to introduce this person, right? Both of you are Olympians. You should know each other, right?”
Athena glanced at Lorne with a smile and then looked at Aphrodite. “Yes, how can I not know her? After all, she’s the beautiful Goddess of Olympus.”
Aphrodite was also beaming. “That’s right, I’m good with my sisters!”
Both of them were smiling and seemed to be friendly. Lorne seemed to feel that something was wrong, but he could not tell what it was.
…
The outside world was in an uproar. As the Olympians charged toward the Titan Court, the whole world stood on its tiptoes.
The Titan Court was quiet. They had long been prepared for this, but everyone still looked a little nervous.
At that moment, inside the temple, the main Titans were sitting in their seats.
Hyperion was filled with a murderous aura. “Now, there are more and more people watching the show outside! They think of us as clowns. It’s like watching a show. They deserve to die. Should we kill them before the final battle with Olympus!”
Although he was a little surprised that three True Gods had appeared in Olympus, he was not afraid at all. This was because he felt that the Titans were mighty. It was also not his turn to deal with the brothers. They all had their own opponents to deal with.
He was not afraid of the other main gods of Olympus. Naturally, he was not worried at all..
