Chapter 41 Unable to Imprison
"Your Majesty, the God King, you will be immortal forever."
Hearing Taren's words, Kronos was stunned at first, and then a strange expression appeared on his face.
Kronos was not as arrogant as his father; on the contrary, he was very cautious and suspicious.
Tarun's attitude before was very clear, but now the sudden change made him sense something unusual.
He began to be alert.
"You mean, my curse has been lifted?"
No matter what he was thinking, Kronos remained calm. He looked at Talen with a deep gaze: "Will I be the eternal God King?"
In fact, before coming here, Kronos had made up his mind that he would get rid of Taron today no matter what.
Whether Taren continues to remain neutral and mysterious, or chooses to change his attitude and join him, he will not allow Taren to continue to exist.
For a guy who makes him feel threatened, even if the guy changes his attitude, he will still doubt whether it is true or not and will not be able to feel at ease.
So, he asked this fatal question.
If Taren admitted that the curse had been lifted, he would use the fact that Taren had clearly said before that "the curse could not be lifted" as an excuse to accuse him of deceiving the God-King and imprison him forever.
If Taren said that the curse had not been lifted, he would use Taren's words "The God-King is forever immortal" as a pretext to attack him, and directly conclude that Taren was teasing the God-King, and would also imprison him permanently.
In short, no matter how Taron answered, Kronos had already decided his fate in his mind, which was to be thrown directly into the abyss Tartarus.
However, this existence that once made him extremely fearful now bowed his head and fawned for mercy, which still made Kronos feel extremely satisfied. Even his eyes became more playful and mocking.
He felt like he had triumphed over fate.
He accomplished what the great god Uranus could not do.
He took his destiny into his own hands, he broke the shackles of the curse, and he is the eternal God-King!
But before he could enjoy this pleasure for long, he heard Taren speak again:
"The curse cannot be broken. It is the power of the contract, the constraint of the oath, and the law of the world."
Taron's tone remained unchanged, and did not fluctuate at all because of Kronos's attitude change.
It was as if he was always like this, calm and gentle, as if he didn't care about anything, as if everything was under his control, and this was exactly what Kronos could not tolerate the most.
Kronos's face turned gloomy on the spot. He looked at Taren with cold eyes. The mighty power of creation from the God King even fluctuated, emitting an incomparable sense of oppression.
"Then are you kidding me when you say I will be immortal?" Kronos said coldly, without a trace of warmth in his voice.
"You are immortal, but you are not the eternal God King." Taron remained calm, as if he didn't see the anger and dissatisfaction that was about to erupt from Kronos at this moment.
"Okay, okay, Tarun, you're fine." Kronos laughed in anger, his voice so gloomy that water could almost drip from it: "Are you provoking me?!"
"No, I'm stating the facts," Tarun said. "Your Majesty, you shouldn't be obsessed with eternity, but with the present."
"Taren! Do you really think I wouldn't dare to touch you?"
Kronos coldly interrupted Tarun before he finished speaking, and the power of the God King in his body completely boiled over and enveloped Tarun.
At the same time, his incomparably majestic voice rang out from the void, carrying the fluctuations of divine power, spreading throughout the entire world—
"Unforgivable offender, the Endless Abyss is your final destination. In the name of the God-King, I pronounce sentence on Taren for disrespecting the God-King! The sentence is eternal!"
The moment this huge voice sounded, the whole world was violently shaken!
Upon hearing this, the Titans, no matter what they were doing at the moment, all looked up in shock and gazed towards the distant horizon.
Most of the newly born three generations of gods were still too weak and did not know what was happening. They could not even hear the voice of the God King and only felt fear instinctively.
Only a few of the more powerful third-generation gods could realize what was happening like the Titans, such as Prometheus, Zeus, Metis, etc.
Because they had grown to the corresponding level, most of them knew of Taren's existence, and the degree of shock in their hearts was no less than that of the Titans.
Taren, who was suspected to be the God of Destiny, was imprisoned in the abyss Tartarus by the God King because he angered the God King!
The first thought that came to everyone's mind was:
How is this possible? !
The reason why these gods respect and fear Tarun so much is that he once predicted the future of the world when he was still very weak, and not just once, but every time he predicted it accurately, as if he was destiny itself.
Tarun even defeated the God King Uranus, who was an unsolvable existence for them at that time, when he was just a weak divine power!
It was only because of these miraculous events that the gods became more wary of him, and even suspected that he was fate itself, irresistible and unblasphemable.
But now, Kronos actually imprisoned such a mysterious and terrifying existence!
Isn't Taren the god of fate? Can fate also be imprisoned?
How dare Kronos do this, and how did he do it? Wasn't he afraid of offending fate?
Various questions echoed in the minds of the great gods, and in the end they all converged into one doubt:
Is Kronos already so powerful? So powerful that he can transcend fate?!
This is something that Uranus couldn't do back then!
Even Gaia, Rhea, and Zeus felt as if they were struck by lightning. They were still counting on Taron to help them defeat Kronos!
But soon the masters, who were stunned by shock, disbelief and other emotions, soon discovered a problem.
That is, there is only a verdict, but no punishment?
The twelve Titans had all witnessed with their own eyes how the God-King Uranus imprisoned the Cyclops and the Hecatonchus forever in Tartarus, and they knew that once the verdict was announced, the punishment would be carried out.
But they did not see Tarun being thrown into the abyss.
Gaia, the earth adjacent to the abyss, felt even more clearly that no new breath entered and Taren was not thrown into Tartarus.
This made her confused. What on earth had happened?
Kronos also felt it was incredible.
The no longer young God King opened his eyes wide, and the expression on his face was one of astonishment and shock that he had never seen since he became the God King.
After clearly feeling his Divine King might being dissolved by an invisible yet gentle force, he couldn't help but utter an incoherent sound: "How is this possible?!"
"Why not?"
Tarun was still standing there. He seemed to be unaffected by anything, not even the corners of his clothes were messed up.
He still maintained his calm demeanor, gave Kronos a gentle smile, and asked with a hint of doubt:
"God King Kronos, are you trying to imprison fate?"
"Ah, that's true..." He paused, his voice a little playful, "You're very courageous
