Mobius: Holy shit, a cheat!!

Zeus's incarnation—the divine queen Dione.

The Prompt Device revealed the other party's full name.

In Greek mythology, there was the dilemma of the Golden Apple.

At a banquet, the Goddess of Discord placed down an apple inscribed with the words "For the most beautiful goddess," sparking a contest between Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite.

Even Zeus was unable to distribute it, so he chose to let a wise mortal make the decision.

The wise man from the future, however, offered a rather equitable proposal.

Give the peel to the Goddess of Beauty; only her outer shell was worthy of praise.

Give the flesh to Hera, because she had already lost all face.

Give the core to Athena, because she trembled beneath Zeus's majesty. She had been born only as a daughter and was fated never to sow the fruit's seeds.

Finally, give the stem to Zeus, and say: even dividing an apple required an outsider's help. His crown was like that stem—absurd and useless.

It was an equal-opportunity attack on every god, making Poseidon and Hades flee in a chariot, terrified of getting blood splattered all over themselves.

But afterward, someone pointed out that this distribution plan was not quite correct either.

Indra's wife Shachi was originally named Indrani. Shiva's wife Parvati was a beauty split from his body, while Vishnu's wife Lakshmi was a female body produced through Vishnu's mitosis.

Tracing things back to their source, Hera was merely a relatively noble woman conquered by "Zeus," who also happened to represent the family.

—In Indo-European mythology, the divine queen was the god-king himself.

The flesh should actually have been eaten by the forgotten divine queen, Dione. Hera could just stand to the side and catch a whiff.

"Why did you come out wearing this appearance?"
