    In the end, Aladdin became the king of the city-state representing the belief in the gods. Though Zeus was quite the playboy, he was absolutely not inferior in the art of power, and even the True Dragon Emperor might not surpass Zeus.


    The gods’ strength might be categorized, but their capabilities were indeed the full version, and coupled with the Fairy Tale World, all kinds of heaven-defying abilities could appear, be it resurrection or various treasures, which were basically as common as weeds here.


    However, making such connections always had its benefits, after all, this person might be a secret child of Hades, and Queen of the Underworld Persephone was not as jealous as Queen of Heaven Hera.


    He didn’t know if there were ancient eastern countries in this world, nor could he travel that far, but he guessed there probably weren’t because this world likely only contained Western fairy tales mixed with Greek mythology, and did not include the various stories of the East.


    This city-state was called Corinth City State, and its builder, well, was none other than King Sisyphus, making it a comparatively young city-state.


    At that time, Aladdin had already obtained Aladdin’s lamp, but his ambitions weren’t great then; he merely relied on the lamp to provide food, which he then sold on silver platters for a living.


    A group of lightly dressed maids poured wine for Qin Muye, who naturally drained his cup at once, although the alcohol didn’t affect him at all; his magic power cleaned it all up.@@@@


    After a heated exchange, the banquet finally came to an end.


    It was indeed meeting Princess Bedel that suddenly expanded his horizons.


    If he were a wizard he definitely wouldn’t say, but the wizard at that time had turned into a devoted follower of the lettuce lady; attacking him might not make him talk, but if it involved the lettuce lady, not to mention the situation with the lamp, even the color of his underwear would be honestly revealed.


    Sisyphus couldn’t help but laugh at this thought, the topic was indeed awkward; as a king, it wasn’t appropriate for him to comment, but he understood well enough in his heart.


    In Greek mythology, let alone divine beings, it’s uncertain if even ordinary people have connections with divine beings, let alone him who actually married a divine being; perhaps Zeus was even his brother-in-law.


    Sisyphus didn’t probe too deeply, but nodded his head, “Indeed, no wonder I’ve only heard of it but never seen it, Prince Qin, how does my Kingdom of Corinth compare with your kingdom?”


    He had even told Aladdin the spell needed to open the treasure, which he had extracted from the wizard.


    He suspected that this city-state might have offended Zeus.


    He didn’t like drinking, as alcohol impaired his thinking.


    Who knows which child of the gods will replicate such a legend next, although Hades may be less prominent than Zeus, his influence was not necessarily lesser, as Hades was the lord of the Netherworld, and even the Death Gods were his subordinates.


    Who could truly be unafraid of death?


    There were many Divine Descendants, but only a few were prominent.


    Qin Muye naturally had to accept the invitation, he was still keen to meet King Sisyphus, whose daughter was Princess Bedel Sisyphus who had married Aladdin.


    But that all depends on how much the Gods favor their illegitimate children; Hercules received treatment not just anyone could compare with.


    Admitting defeat when defeated is quite normal; he wasn’t a fantasy novel protagonist who could just shout “Break!” and defeat higher level enemies. Besides, he couldn’t anyway, being only a 3rd tier while the opponent was a 6th tier, unless Tian Qi came to help, otherwise it was really uncertain if he could win.


    At this time, Qin Muye was invited by the city-state’s king to a banquet, after all, being a prince, the other party couldn’t neglect him.


    Aside from him, his Queen was also present.


    But currently, they still had to drink, as one must bow their head under another’s roof.


    Like in the center of the pool, a particular male statue wearing nothing, quite well-built indeed.


    Treasure vaults, treasures, they were everywhere, whether it was Alibaba and the Forty Thieves or this occasion’s Aladdin’s lamp, such was the case.


    Aladdin is just a transliteration. If you consider its real meaning, it should represent a noble belief.


    When Aladdin went to retrieve the Divine Lamp, Qin Muye didn’t follow; instead, he sent three Evangelical Spirit Monsters to tail him in case of any trouble.


    “Naturally, King Sisyphus, your kingdom is powerful,” Qin Muye spoke the truth—you wife is a Divine after all, how could he compare?


    “The great King of all Gods also has only Queen of Heaven Hera as his wife,” Moluo Po said meaningfully, implying the existence of illegitimate children.


    “Let’s send a generous gift over, no need to mention his status, as the other’s nobility is beyond doubt,” Moluo Po defined the nature of the gesture.


    “Please have a seat, Prince Qin. I heard that the East possesses silks soft as baby’s skin and exceedingly beautiful porcelain?” Sisyphus said.


    “You mean he might be a son of Hades? But Hades isn’t...” Sisyphus asked, somewhat puzzled.


    “Greetings to King Sisyphus. I come from the East, I am Qin,” Qin Muye said respectfully. The Divine was 6th tier, Qin Muye couldn’t beat him, so he had to admit defeat.


    “Hahaha, Prince Qin is indeed straightforward. Here, have some of Corinth Kingdom’s delicious wine,” Sisyphus naturally was pleased; everyone likes being flattered and also wants others to acknowledge their greater strength.


    “Your Majesty the King, his background is not ordinary. I could smell Netherworld and Hades on him,” Queen Moluo Po said solemnly.


    “Hmm, okay.” Sisyphus naturally had no objection to this arrangement; who knew if Hades could grant divinity to this illegitimate child? The last one to receive such treatment was Zeus’s son Hercules, the renowned Sagittarius and Great Strength.


    “Thank you for your hospitality, King Sisyphus. When I have time in the future, I’ll come again to chat about pleasures and delights with you...” Qin Muye said, sticking out his tongue.


    “???”


    ‘Tch, the humiliation of two women’s chest muscles being overshadowed by a man’s. It’s truly a disgrace.’


    ‘And the name Sisyphus, why does it sound somewhat familiar?’
