Chapter 16 Evaluation
As the God of Sun displayed his divine power unabashedly, the atmosphere both inside and outside the Mount of the Gods, which had been lively, began to weigh down with gravity.
The deities who were preparing to come forward also stopped in their tracks. Although the "Mist Serpent" had been cleared away, they were equally reluctant to get involved in the obvious conflict before them.
The character and ambition of the God of Sun were well known; he was not one to engage in pleasant sociability. Aside from his wife Theia, even his own children held more fear than respect for him, so naturally, the gods were not going to speak on his behalf.
As for Laine, it was even less necessary to mention. Among the deities present who knew him, aside from Themis, the majority would be happy to see someone laying hands on him.
