Chapter 546 Seems like its meat quality is average at best, barely edible
William and Apollo have always had a good relationship.
Back when William married Artemis, Apollo, as Artemis’s brother, was naturally very pleased. 𝑖𝘦𝑎.𝗇t
William also cherished Artemis deeply.
After all, for someone like William, if he really wanted to find a partner of equal strength, he figured he would never be able to marry.
Poseidon was someone William had guided in his youth, teaching him a few things, which loosely made him Poseidon’s mentor.
Artemis, a disciple of Poseidon, became William’s wife.
Effectively, he married the disciple of his own disciple.
But for William, marrying a girl billions of years his junior didn’t bring any sense of wrongdoing.
He had no direct relatives, and the significant age gap in a romantic relationship might seem unacceptable to others, but for him, it was inconsequential.
Therefore, in terms of ethics that some might find questionable, William didn’t much care.
Like with Alice, his disciple, engaging in a sexual relationship with someone a billion years younger didn’t bother William.
Even living with Alice later on, he saw it as no big deal.
Any woman would do.
“I can’t get drunk, you know that,” William said as he and Alice took their seats next to Apollo, asking, “What did you order? Is it enough for the three of us?”
William wasn’t much interested in drinking; he had tasted even the finest wines.
Most importantly, he sat at Apollo’s table to mooch a meal.
Apollo had frequently mooched meals at his house in the past, so mooching a meal from him today was perfectly justifiable.
Apollo, with a mischievous smile, whispered, “Dog meat! Just don’t tell anyone, okay? We’ll just eat quietly and then leave.”
“It’s just dog meat,” William said nonchalantly, for a foodie, as long as it’s tasty, that’s all that matters.
No sooner had he spoken than all the guests around them stared at William and Apollo.
William, curious about the guests’ reactions, asked, “Since when can you eat dog meat in the Sanctuary of the Celestial Gods?”
Apollo, somewhat embarrassed, whispered, “I found this dog by the roadside and just asked the disciple of the God of Cooking to help prepare it. There’s nothing wrong with that.”
While they were talking, a guest tried to leave, but Apollo quickly threw out a Deus Vinculum chain, binding them in place.
William immediately realized that there might be something wrong with the dog Apollo mentioned.
“Apollo, the dog you’re talking about, it’s probably not one you just found, is it?” William started to laugh.
Given Apollo’s actions, it was likely the dog was a deity’s pet.
As they spoke, a chef ran out from the back, his face a picture of distress. He knelt before Apollo at their table.
The disciple of the God of Cooking, with a mournful expression, said, “Lord Apollo, please don’t joke with me. That dog woke up!”
This chef was indeed a disciple of the God of Cooking. When Apollo brought a dog to him requesting it be cooked, he didn’t think much of it.
But just then, the dog woke up and declared its identity, claiming it was the pet of the war god Ares, named Sparta…
How could he dare to kill it now!
Ares was the son of Zeus and Hera, not someone he could afford to offend.
But Apollo is also a son of Zeus. Moreover, when Apollo and his sister Artemis were living in Delos as children, they became disciples of the sea god Poseidon. This status is something he, as a lesser god, would not dare to offend…
Logically, with the theft of the dog revealed, Apollo should have given up on the idea of eating it.
But encountering William today had emboldened him, he scoffed, “It’s just a dog. If it’s killed, it’s killed. It seems you lack culinary skills. If you’re too scared to cook it, then I’ll ask my brother-in-law to do it.”
Then, winking at William, he added, “This Doberman has lived for a hundred thousand years. Meeting you today, I’d like to taste your cooking again.”
Apollo was well aware of his brother-in-law’s extraordinary culinary skills. He had enjoyed many delicious meals at William’s place in the past. He even heard about the time Hades’ Cerberus accidentally wandered into William’s home and nearly ended up being cooked.
It was only after Hades spoke highly of William and offered several divine artifacts that Cerberus’s life was spared.
The disciple of the God of Cooking dared not say anything. He couldn’t afford to provoke either Apollo or Ares. After all, both were sons of Zeus, so he figured it was best to let them sort it out themselves.
Overwhelmed, the disciple of the God of Cooking simply fainted on the spot.
“This little chef can’t even slaughter a dog,” Apollo scoffed, smiling at William. “So, what do you think of my proposal?”
William smiled back, “Cooking dog meat? Sure, it’s a rare occasion to be with Apollo, so I’ll cook a meal today.”
With that, the two headed towards the kitchen.
Alice had been silent the whole time, simply following behind, curious to see what kind of dog could live for a hundred thousand years.
“By the way, William, who is this young lady?” Apollo finally noticed Alice following behind William and asked about her identity.
Without changing his expression, William said, “She’s my current wife, Alice.”
Apollo uttered an “Oh” before turning to Alice and saying, “Hello, Miss.”
Alice, somewhat awkwardly, replied, “Hello.”
What…
What was all this about?
William had a wife before?
And the tall guy in front of her was the brother of William’s ex-
wife, and they seemed to have a good relationship…
Alice was thoroughly confused.
When they reached the kitchen, they saw a Doberman tightly bound.
“Damn it! Who’s the dead man daring to hit me with a club?” The Doberman named Sparta, though bound, never stopped cursing and swaggering, “When my master arrives, you’ll be chopped into pieces!”
An Assistant Chef, terrified upon learning Sparta’s identity, whispered, “Esteemed Mr. Dog, we can’t release you even if we wanted to. This chain named Deus Vinculum is a divine artifact of the Sun God Apollo… If you have any grievances, please don’t take it out on us.”
“Apollo!! It’s that bastard again. When my master arrives and reports this to Zeus, how will he deal with it?”
Just then, Apollo and William arrived in the kitchen. Apollo chuckled, “Sparta, who were you calling a bastard just now?”
Sparta’s stream of curses came to an abrupt halt, and his face even cracked a smile, “Lord Apollo, you’re here. You know, with my tough skin and rough flesh, I wouldn’t taste good, right? How about letting me go, and I’ll catch Aphrodite’s cat for you, which is said to have a milky scent.”
Apollo spat, “Isn’t that cat your boss? You’re thinking of going there to call for reinforcements, aren’t you?”
“Today, I’ve invited a chef with extraordinary culinary skills. Even if you scream your lungs out, no one will be able to save you.” After saying this, Apollo laughed, then turned to William, “What do you think of this dog?”
William looked Sparta over and said, “Seems like its meat quality is average at best, barely edible. By the way, what was that about Athena’s cat? How did it become its boss?”
