?Hades might not be the most powerful among the gods, but he certainly has his wits about him.
Perhaps it’s his cleverness that makes William rather fond of him.
Though he’d never admit it, Hades and he are somewhat alike.
Hades knows exactly when to do what.
At least when it’s time to take responsibility, he never falters. After all, taking responsibility won’t kill anyone,instead, it might even win William’s favor.
Like that time he tricked the archangel Amenadiel, some people thought he was a schemer.
But he doesn’t care!
What others think of him doesn’t matter,what matters is how William sees him. As long as William thinks well of him, everything is negotiable.
Sure enough, after Hades got beaten up, Alice also cooled down.
She wasn’t a petty person to begin with. With Hades being the King of the Underworld, and having been beaten by William, what more could she want?
Was she supposed to kill him to feel better?
It must be said, although Alice isn’t very busty, she’s not petty either.
After Hades took responsibility, she even found a spot to sit down, looked at Hades with a smile, and said, “I want to eat something too.”
Her smile meant she was no longer holding a grudge.
Alice’s power had reached the level of a Destroyer Deity,she couldn’t possibly be hungry, but she just wanted to eat with her disciples.
To be precise, she wanted to dine with William, and that was it.
Those disciples, she really felt like poisoning them all!
Look at that silly Loki, still eating fruit!
In fact, many powerful deities choose to give up worldly desires and focus on their spiritual practices.
But being around Alice every day, it sometimes felt wrong not to eat something.
Of course, since Alice hadn’t been on her path of growth for long and had previously been with William, a gourmet, how could she give up worldly desires?
Since William had come to Hades’ palace.
He was here, and out of politeness, he should eat something before leaving. He also sat down next to Alice.
Seeing this, Hades quickly had the table in the center of the hall removed.
He had been with William before and knew his tastes.
“Miss Alice! To apologize, let me cook a meal for you and master myself,” Hades knew that no matter how well he did in other areas, nothing compared to excelling in culinary arts.
This was the way to win William’s heart.
William had disappeared for many years, but Hades had significantly honed his culinary skills.
He had spent a million years perfecting his cooking, and today he could finally show off his skills in front of William.
Hades walked to the center of the hall, waved his hand, and a barbecue setup appeared before everyone.
“Master, Miss Alice, friends, today let me treat you to my specialty, grilled dragon ribs.”
There were quite a few of Hades’ subordinates in the hall, and when they saw this, they were dumbfounded.
What the hell was going on?
The King of the Underworld was grilling dragon ribs for them in public.
Wasn’t this a servant’s job?
Hades’ subordinates, seeing this scene, dared not ask, speak, or even look in Hades’ direction.
They were genuinely afraid that after William left, the King would silence anyone who had seen this.
If word got out, where would Hades’ dignity be?
Hades then brought out a large table, placed a huge dragon rib on it, drew a divine sword, and quickly chopped it into pieces, deboned it, and then skewered them with meteoric iron skewers.
William sat there motionless, watching Hades perform.
Seeing this, William remembered.
When Hades had been with him, he had done this before.
The toughness of dragon ribs is imaginable, and ordinary knives definitely couldn’t cut through them, so using a divine weapon as a Chef’s Knife was most appropriate.
Also, dragon ribs naturally have a strong smell, and without divine fire to soften them, they are basically inedible.
Grilling dragon ribs to eat, probably only big shots like William and Hades could manage that.
After cutting and deboning the dragon ribs, Hades took out Holy Spring Water to soak and clean them.
Using Holy Spring Water to wash away the smell from the dragon ribs, he was indeed very meticulous, then he sprinkled various precious seasonings on them.
That was sort of marinating, I guess.
After serving William and the others, Hades’ subordinates went to wait at the door.
They had just received a telepathic message from Hades.
The message was simple: don’t be afraid, and feel free to discuss this matter.
And he seriously told them that the young, handsome man was William the Obliterator.
Sure enough, after leaving the hall, Hades’ subordinates started talking.
“So that was the famous William the Obliterator from the Divine Realm. He’s so handsome, I wonder what level of power he has reached now.”
“That dragon rib must be from an ancient god dragon that the King hunted thousands of years ago. He’s been saving it all these years, what a warm welcome.”
Hades’ subordinates also spoke well of him at the door.
They didn’t know if William would hear their words, but if he did…
“You didn’t see the water the King used to wash the dragon ribs, that was Holy Spring Water. It’s said that even a Guardian Deity could advance to a Nature Deity level by drinking a mouthful of Holy Spring Water. To use such a treasure just for washing dragon ribs, the King is really thoughtful!”
Hades’ subordinates weren’t afraid of these words being overheard, after all, they were all praises.
The Divine Realm’s various powers are complex, and Hades’ palace also had spies from other forces, though Hades knew, he turned a blind eye.
The events in the hall were quickly spread.
They didn’t know this was exactly the effect King Hades wanted.
Today’s events were meant to be spread.
In less than half an hour, many big shots in the Divine Realm knew about this event, that William the Obliterator was in Hades’ palace, and Hades was personally cooking for him and his wife Alice.
Their relationship must be really special.
It’s not normally something to boast about for a king to cook for someone, but it depends on who’s cooking, right?
William the Obliterator had also disappeared for a while, and now that he reappeared in the Divine Realm, it was in Hades’ palace, which only shows that William and Hades’ relationship is indeed very good.
Hosting William the Obliterator, many big shots in the Divine Realm would dream of such an opportunity, and now Hades had to proclaim it.
