"I will go take a bath and wear new clothes," she bowed down and added, "Please wait for me until then."

She left the throne room in a hurry. While Zeus let out a big sigh and glared at Ajax.

Ajax raised his brows and uttered, "I believe you are perceptive enough to realize my daughter\'s feelings by the way she reacted just now after seeing you."

Zeus didn\'t say anything and stood there in silence, or rather he had nothing to say.

"Just so you know, she takes five baths in a day. And she just took one an hour ago, but she still insisted on taking another one because she was going to meet you."

"You know your daughter\'s bath schedule? Creepy," Zeus said with a disgusted look on his face.

"My wife has been sick ever since she gave birth to my daughter. Again, even though I am just a part-demon, it affected my human wife. Do you see? Humans shouldn\'t convince children of other races; it\'s dangerous for them."

"I am aware," Zeus muttered with a sad look on his face and turned to Ajax. "Now, back to the topic."

"I told you I already have a lover, so why are you trying to court me with your daughter?"

"She doesn\'t know you have a lover. She would be sad if she gets to know you have a lover, and I can go to any length to protect her smile."

Zeus furrowed his brows and said with a straight face, "I honestly don\'t care about you or your daughter. Heck, I don\'t even know her name, and you want me to marry her."

"Do you want to know her name?" Ajax asked.

"Up to you. In any case, I will reject her if she confesses her feelings to me."

Ajax ignored what Zeus just said and continued, "Her name is Astrea— the star that shall shine forever."

"Good name. And with all due respect, that name indeed suits your daughter."

"Then marry her," Ajax teased.

Zeus scoffed and shook his head with a slight smile on his face, "How old is she?"

"Fourteen."

"Yeah, Nah," Zeus turned pale.

"What\'s wrong? Why did you suddenly turn pale?" Ajax wondered with a puzzled look on his face.

"From where I am from, courting a fourteen-year-old is a huge crime."

"Is that so? I thought fourteen was a normal age for girls to marry. I myself married my wife when I was seventeen, and she was fourteen."

"How old are you again?" Zeus raised his brows.

"32 and aging."

"Wow!" Zeus exclaimed and said, "You look like you are in your teens."

"Well, thanks to the demon blood," Ajax shrugged.

"Apollo— the first of my bloodline, lived for 800 years and died soon after his wife passed away. Then generations after generation, the limit of the lifespan kept getting lesser and lesser as the blood became dormant."

"Are you afraid of dying?" Zeus asked in a calm tone.

"My grandfather lived for 130 years, and my father lived for 120 years. I expect my death at around the same age. Unless I am killed before that."

"There has still a lot of time left. You can create more kids, and who knows? They might become the greatest in the history."

"Unfortunately, I can\'t. My wife\'s condition keeps getting worse and worse. I am afraid she might leave me alone in this world full of…" Ajax couldn\'t finish the sentence and ended it with a sigh.

"Maybe you should let me have a look," Zeus suggested.

"Are you a doctor too?"

"Not exactly. But I do have some tricks up my sleeves, and I might be able to help you cure your wife."

Ajax pondered for a while and gave a blank stare to Zeus.

"If you can help me, then all your help is most welcome," Ajax smiled and patted Zeus\'s shoulder, then walked to the door as he said, "Follow me."

Zeus followed Ajax, and he took him to a room that had tight security on the door.

They entered the room, and the first thing Zeus notice was the scent of gooseberries.

There were three maids present in the room and an elderly man near the bed.

"My king," the elderly man bowed down to Ajax.

"Gustav, I have brought someone to check up on Helene," Ajax pointed his gaze at Zeus.

Gustav glanced at Zeus with his face full of disgust and said, "My king, my deepest apologizes, but there is no way I am letting a monster interfere with the treatment."

"I wasn\'t asking for your permission. I was simply informing you. And yeah, you should apologize to Zeus for calling him a monster. He is my friend, and I expect everyone to treat him with great respect."

Gustav gritted his teeth and glared at Zeus, "I apologize for calling you a monster."

Zeus was used to comments like this, so it didn\'t affect him much. But what affected him was Ajax\'s statement. Only a few people loved Zeus, and he just added Ajax\'s to his friend list.

Zeus walked to the bed and looked at Helene, then checked her pulse.

"What\'s wrong with her? Tell me the symptoms."

"Uhh… her body is weak, and her condition keeps getting worse. She can barely eat or drink anything. And she sleeps for days only to wake up for few hours. The last time she spoke was three years ago. And she also seems to be forgetting things."

Ajax tried to explain as simply as he could, but it was enough for Zeus to understand Helene\'s condition.

"I need to check something, and for that, I need to be alone with the queen. So please leave this room," Zeus stated.

The maids left the room, but Gustav and Ajax didn\'t.

Zeus glanced at Gustav and stared at him.

"There is no way I am—" Gustav was trying to refute, but Ajax interrupted him and asked him to leave.

Gustav left, and Ajax also walked to the door to leave.

"Oi! Where are you going?" Zeus called out.

"Didn\'t you ask everyone to leave?" Ajax repeated Zeus\' words with a puzzled look on his face.

"Yeah, but you don\'t need to leave. For fuck\'s sake, how can you leave a man alone with your wife?"

"I trust you, and I know you won\'t do anything weird. You even rejected to marry my daughter— whose beauty is second after my wife— Helene."

Ajax walked back into the room and looked at Helene.

"Close the door, you dimwit," Zeus ran to the door and closed it.

"Can you truly cure my wife?" Ajax asked with a solemn look on his face.

"The medication given to your wife is making her sicker and sicker."

"What?!" Ajax exclaimed.

"There is something wrong with the medicines. Stop it at once, and never let anyone come near your wife."

"What are you… saying? I don\'t understand."

"That Gustav is trying to kill your wife slowly- slowly by his medicines."

"I don\'t believe it," Ajax was baffled and couldn\'t comprehend Zeus\'s words.

"Gustav\'s family has been serving my family for generations. There is no way he would try to…"

"I am telling the truth, and you need to trust me. You can either trust Gustav or me."

"I trust you, Zeus. But May I ask on what basis are you claiming that Gustav is trying to kill Helene?" 

"First of all, it\'s super cliche. And as for my basis—" Zeus\' eyes shined violet. "I used my God\'s sight." 

"And may I ask, what exactly is that, and what does it do?"

"It lets me see through things. I looked at your wife\'s body, and there is poison all over her body. If not treated immediately, she might die within a week."

"Can you save her?" Ajax\'s voice was full of panic, and he was sweating crazily.

"Fortunately, I am immune to poisons, so yes. I can save her."

Zeus moved his hand towards Helene, and 12 magic circles of different colors appeared before his hand. He placed one magic circle on Helene\'s forehead, one on each hand, one on each thigh, and leg. One of the chest, one of the stomach, one on each shoulder, and kept the last on his hand.

Then, he moved his finger from one magic circle to another and connected them with his mana.

"I am starting now." Zeus precisely changed the patterns of the magic circles one by one as they merged into the magic circle on Zeus\' hand.

"I have gathered all the poison at one spot. And now I need to take it out of her body," Zeus informed.

"Then do it!"

"There are only two ways to take it out. One is through the mouth, and one from down there— you know what I am talking about."

"Yes…" Ajax nodded.

"And to extract the poison out of her body, someone needs to suck it out from either her mouth or… you know what I am talking about."

Ajax rushed to the bed and said, "I will do it."

"You can\'t. It is poison, and even if you are a part-demon, you will die because the poison is too concentrated now that it has gathered and mixed as one," Zeus explained.

"So… you will do it?"

"There is no way I am sucking it from down, so I will need to suck it through her mouth. But first, I need your permission to do it."
