Poseidon, the mighty God of the Sea, surely no one would refuse his offer to take on an apprentice.
Ares, merely a minor Mortal Deity in terms of power, would be incredibly fortunate to receive guidance from Poseidon.
The moment Poseidon reveals his identity, wouldn't Ares be utterly astonished?
Hearing Poseidon speak, Ares, out of politeness, asked, "And you are?"
"Lord of the Sea!"
After Poseidon announced his title, it was almost certain that Ares would be shocked.
Ares frowned slightly, seemingly skeptical: "One of the three great gods of Olympus?"
"Exactly!" replied Poseidon.
"Oh," Ares realized, slowly kneeling and raising his hands in respect and prayer to Poseidon, "So you are Poseidon, God of the Seas. I am Ares of the Pantheon Guild, devoutly worshiping you."
"That settles it, then. From now on, you will stay by my side," Poseidon said, pleased, looking at Ares kneeling before him, having decided to accept him as his disciple.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt didn't matter why,even if Ares were as dumb as a pig, Poseidon would personally mentor him.
"Poseidon, God of the Seas, I wish to stay by Mr. Johnson's side."
Ares almost blurted out that he did not wish to be his disciple.
In Olympus, the Pantheon Guild's grand hall enshrines massive statues of the three great gods, yet Ares was clear and unambiguous in refusing Poseidon.
"Fine, then. Follow me in a bit…" Poseidon hadn't finished speaking when he suddenly realized he was being rejected.
He, Poseidon, one of the three high-ranking God-Kings, was refused by a Mortal Deity?!
Poseidon was so taken aback he thought there was something wrong with his ears.
"You don't wish to be my disciple?" Poseidon couldn't fathom it.
How much courage did it take to refuse him?
Ares's expression didn't change as he nodded and said, "I hope you will grant me this wish."
In the end, Ares's refusal was decisively firm.
If William really kept him around, Ares' future achievements might indeed be quite high.
"Alright, after we return, we'll conduct the apprenticeship ceremony. For now, go outside and wait for me; I have some matters to discuss with Mr. Johnson."
With a wave of his hand, Poseidon sent Ares out to wait.
Ares obediently nodded to Poseidon and then left the room.
"Mr. Johnson, where's my Trident? You haven't broken it, have you?" Poseidon asked as soon as Ares left, dropping his Lord of the Sea demeanor. He sat beside William, all smiles.
Those who don't know might even think this person is not serious.
The Trident of Poseidon, Zeus's 'Thunder Sword,' Apollo's 'Sun Sword,' Athena's 'Sword of Wisdom,' and Ares's 'Sword of War' are revered artifacts of Olympus, and their power is immense.
Unless they are high-ranking God-Kings, even Creator Deities would fear the power of these artifacts.
Poseidon, with such a powerful artifact, was actually worried about William potentially breaking it.
If it were anyone else, Poseidon wouldn't be concerned about this at all.
But those items were in William's hands!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe also knew that William had countless artifacts at his disposal, and William was quite a bored individual.
What if William decided to compare his own Sword of Soulbreaker with Zeus's 'Thunder Sword,' Apollo's 'Sun Sword,' Athena's 'Sword of Wisdom,' and Ares's 'Sword of War' to see which was sharper? That would be quite awkward.
He still remembered how William had effortlessly defeated Poseidon with a single stroke, making Poseidon quite apprehensive.
What high-ranking God-King?
That one stroke from William had made Poseidon seriously question his life.
"Do you really think I can't tell the difference? What I've borrowed, I've borrowed, how could I possibly break it?" William paused, then said, "And your stuff, what's so fun about it anyway?"
Poseidon vaguely felt that William made sense, yet also felt like he was being insulted, although he couldn't find any evidence for it.
William waved his robe, and all the artifacts floated in the air: "If you want to use these things, go use them in the Divine Realm."
"Of course!" Poseidon, as a high-ranking God-King, also knew how terrifying the power of his artifacts was...
Hmm, as long as it's not against William, the power of those artifacts is still somewhat terrifying.
Such powerful weapons are not used lightly, especially now that the Earth is populated with ordinary people. If these artifacts were to be used directly, it would likely cause harm to the innocent.
As a high-ranking God-King, one should protect the people. Acts of slaughter are better avoided.
