In the familiar words of Chinese people, Kratos is a typical life of the lonely star of Tiansha.

No one who is involved in him will end up having a good ending.

Whether it is your own or your enemy.

In Xin Sheng's view, Kratos' ability to kill everyone around him is very similar to the law of cause and effect. Within the range that Xin Sheng knew, only a very small number of people were "temporarily" not killed.

These include Freya, Cinderry and Brock, the dwarf brothers who appeared in God of War 4, as well as the son of Kratos and his new wife who had been killed, Atreus.

Or, Loki.

But Xin Sheng speculated that this was just because Kui Ye’s journey in the Nordic God Realm has not yet ended, so who can know the final outcome?

The Olympus god system that was "guarded" by Master Kui was basically destroyed, and all the three pillar gods Zeus, Poseidon and Hades died.

In the original game, the main gods who died tragically at his hands also include Hermes, Hephaestus, Athena and Ares.

There are also some more important Olympian gods, which were also massacred by Kratos.

For example, Gaia, the Earth Mother Goddess, Cronos, the Titan King, Persez, the Destruction Goddess, Persephone, the Sun Goddess, Tanatus, Hercules, the Hercules, the Three Goddess of Destiny and the Three Goddess of Revenge, etc.

Before figuring out the fate of Kratos' strange fate of Tiansha Lone Star, Xin Sheng did not intend to have too much connection with him to avoid being affected.

After harming the Greek Olympus god system, Kratos wandered to Northern Europe and accidentally formed a feud with the god Asgard. Poor Odin may not be able to escape the fate of death in the end.

"Greece is followed by Nordic Europe, who is the next unlucky guy? Egypt? Babylon?"

In short, Xin Sheng kept a distance from watching the play when the mysterious man used Kratos, and he also hoped to see how the war started by Kratos and the mysterious man would end.

However, before the final outcome was revealed, Xin Sheng still had his own goal to achieve.

...

"For the first time we meet, Olympus' greatest craftsman, the god of Vulcan and the forging, Hephaestus."

Hephaestus, who had just returned from the front line, was very tired.

He made a large number of weapons and armor for Olympus' colleagues in the Pioneer Camp on the mountainside, and specially built several powerful long-range throwing war machinery, providing important logistical support for Olympus to gradually gain the advantage of the battle situation.

Taking advantage of the Titans' initiative to retreat and truce, the Olympus also gained valuable breathing time.

Hephaestus returned to the Divine Realm this time to supplement the materials, and to monitor Aphrodite and Ares who returned to Olympus one after another.

Ares suffered some minor injuries on the battlefield and was ordered by Zeus to return to the divine realm for a brief treatment.

Aphrodite took this opportunity to propose that he also needed to rest. After obtaining Zeus' permission, he followed Ares and retreated back to the rear.

Although he had long known that his wife's heart was not in him, as a man and a husband, Hephaestus was still unwilling to give Aphrodite the opportunity to get along with Ares alone.

Ares had just returned in the morning, and Aphrodite returned with Hephaestus in the afternoon.

As soon as he arrived at the Divine Realm, Aphrodite parted ways with Hephaestus without saying a word and returned to his temple of Beauty alone.

Hephaestus could only drag his tired body back to the Temple of the Vulcan Temple with a tired look on his face.

At this time, Xin Sheng came to the temple to visit Hephaestus.

It is rumored that Hephaestus is a crooked and ugly-looking cripple.

After seeing the real person with his own eyes, Xin Sheng affirmed part of the truth of the rumors.

Hephaestus is indeed ugly. His facial features look very inconsistent, his eyes are big and small, and his nose and mouth are also a little crooked.

In addition, he has been hiding in the forging room for many years, Hephaestus, who is unkempt, looks very...simple, like a blacksmith who can be caught by the roadside, without any momentum of being a god.

"Who are you?"

Aphrodite shook his face again. Hephaestus was in a bad mood at this time. The look he looked at Xin Sheng clearly had the intention of expelling the guest, but he did not say anything out of politeness.

‘August is ugly, and lame is indeed lame, but it seems that this Vulcan god is not as irritable as the rumored one.’

Although he was in a low mood, Hephaestus still maintained basic etiquette when facing Xin Sheng and did not show the hot temperament that was widely circulated by the outside world.

Xin Sheng turned a blind eye to Hephaestus's hint and politely introduced himself to him: "I am the newly appointed Feng Shen, Xin Sheng."

"I learned that Lord Vulcan returned from the front line and came to visit him... I just thought it was just to be familiar with my new colleagues."

“Ha~”

Xin Sheng was amused by half-joking words, and he pulled the corners of his mouth with self-deprecating sway.

"So, how do you feel after seeing me? Are you disappointed? The famous God of Forging is such an ugly lame man."

"No, of course not."

Xin Sheng smiled and rejected Hephaestus's self-deprecation: "I have always believed that a man's appearance is not important. What is important is his inner self. Talent is the key to determining whether a man is charming."

Xin Sheng believes that his views are by no means an isolated case.

To give the simplest example, Gu Long, one of the most famous martial arts novels in China.

Gu Long is not very good-looking, and can even be said to be quite ugly, a typical pork prince.

But he was able to attract a large number of women with his literary talent. Even though he knew that Gu Long was a romantic person, he still took the initiative to sacrifice himself like a moth to a fire.

The reason why Hephaestus is unpopular is that his ugly appearance is only one aspect, and the most important thing is his personal character flaw.

In modern terms, Hephaestus is too autistic because of his inferiority in appearance. He locks himself in a small forging room all year round and does not communicate with the outside world, so he will naturally not be understood and respected by others.

The gods of Olympus have already formed a stereotype of him. To break the status quo, Hephaestus needs to change his negative style of dealing with things like an ostrich.

Xin Sheng's comment made Hephaestus stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's so strange. You are the first person to give me a positive comment from the bottom of your heart. Thank you."

Although Hephaestus is very restrained, he is one of the twelve main gods of Olympus and has powerful divine power.

Hephaestus can easily see whether others' words come from sincerity.

It is rare that someone gave a positive comment, and Hephaestus, who was originally quite depressed, had a better mood.

"If you don't mind, let me talk to you in the temple. I also want to know what kind of person the new Feng Shen is after Anemi's death."

Xin Sheng bowed slightly as if he was good: "Of course I don't mind, please."
