Upon hearing this, Athena sighed in resignation, then shook her head and chuckled softly with her eyes slightly closed.
Then she opened her eyes again, turned to look at the fourteen neatly arranged divine bodies, and the Spartans who were disembarking from their cockpits with the assistance of ground crew.
She couldn't help but exclaim, "Your Dr. Halsey actually managed to use Achilles' half-dead body to create a physique that surpasses even a god's.
If my father were still alive and saw this, he might have directly declared war on you humans."
"However, he's already dead, and even if he could come back to life, our Umbrella would take care of him," William said from the side.
Feeling William's extremely confident aura, Athena turned her head to look at his profile and praised him,
"Russell, from my perspective as a god, Umbrella is more than capable of ensuring the safety of humanity and Earth.
The age of gods has long ended; the world should now be dominated by humans.
And I am fortunate enough to witness all of this."
"From what you're saying, it sounds like you're going to go into hiding among humans again?" William asked, turning his head.
"Yes."
Athena didn't deny it. She looked at the northern sky and sighed, "Still hiding among humans as usual.
If I'm in a good mood, I might help some of those poor children."
"Actually," William said, looking directly at Athena, "you should stay and help me and my soldiers contain anomalous phenomena.
They, ah, have only spent a few days with you, and they're already reluctant to part.
They say you are the goddess of victory for humanity, and with you, we will be unstoppable."
As he spoke, William glanced around, looking at the soldiers belonging to Umbrella.
Athena also observed those soldiers with clear eyes and no impurities in their gaze.
They were indeed different from the soldiers of other nations in the trenches.
Coupled with the subtle influence of the system, Athena immediately changed her original idea and nodded with a smile, saying,
"Alright, it's been a long time since I had a truly exhilarating battle, so I'll reluctantly stay in the 'human world' then."
Suddenly,
"Boss!"
Myron's unique voice interrupted William and Athena's conversation.
The over two-meter-tall Myron leaped directly from the still-moving shuttle bus and ran towards William.
His expression was as happy as a "simpleton."
Myron quickly ran up to William, raised his right hand, and pointed his thumb at himself.
He said with great pride, "Boss, that Titan God-King was no match for me at all! I took him down by myself!
How about it! Don't I deserve a good reward?!"
Looking at Myron, who remained completely unhinged no matter how many containment operations and battles he had been through,
"Oh," William raised his hand, rubbing his temples, and sighed, shaking his head.
Then he said, "Alright, your contribution is the greatest. Tell me what reward you want."
"I knew the boss was the best!" Myron excitedly waved his right hand and said without hesitation,
"I want the boss to take us brothers and sisters, all of us, to the Sea of Wine Resort for some relaxation!"
"Sea of Wine Resort?" William was momentarily stunned upon hearing Myron's request.
Only then did he remember that there was the most luxurious resort in the solar system in the Sea of Wine colony on the Moon.
After all, the lunar development was primarily handled by Serena, along with Umbrella's engineering, real estate, and film departments; he was mainly the one responsible for signing off.
Immediately after, the rest of the Spartans also gathered around him and Athena.
William met the gazes of the Spartans and found that even John was eagerly looking forward, seemingly wanting to go there for a visit as well.
Seeing this,
William realized that ever since the Spartans completed their Renovation surgery, they, who had originally lived together every day, were split up and sent to various locations across the solar system for garrison duty.
They were only recalled by the company because they needed to jointly deal with Kronos.
William was unwilling to be the bad guy again, so he smiled and nodded in agreement, saying, "Alright, once everything is settled, I'll take you to the Sea of Wine."
"Yes!" (x14)

Project: Kronos.
Level: Exafanistei.
Description:
The project is the legendary and mythical Greek second-generation God-King, of the Titan race, with a giant physique.
However, when the project was attacked by Spartan-003, it displayed extreme fear, proving that it possesses emotions similar to humans.
It has been confirmed that the project can effectively resist a forty-megaton hydrogen bomb, as well as attacks from Gauss cannons and electromagnetic accelerators.
Along with the project, eleven other Titan gods and numerous hell beasts also broke through the confinement of Mount Tartarus.
Due to Umbrella acquiring intelligence from Pallas Athena, all preparations were made before the project broke confinement, successfully eliminating the project, which harbored hostility towards humanity.
Special Containment Procedures: None / Project has been executed by Spartan-003.
.
Appendix File: Pallas Athena.
Employee Level: A.
Description:
Athena is one of the twelve Olympian gods in legends and myths.
Appeared in Athens on November 13, 2009, and subsequently signed Umbrella's non-disclosure agreement, maintaining a close cooperative relationship with the company.
Possesses numerous technologies difficult for the company to comprehend, including spatial storage technology, self-gigantification, and skin that can effectively resist conventional weapons.
After the 'Antarctic War,' it was speculated that Spartan-003, piloting a divine body, was fully capable of defeating Athena.
In her normal human form and in a one-on-one situation, Athena is capable of defeating all Spartans except 003, 007, and 009 in a short period.
The situations of 003, 007, and 009 are special; Athena would need a long time to fight these three Spartans to a draw.
Since the end of the 'Antarctic War,' Athena has been designated as an A-level personnel by the company and boarded the Phantom alongside Spartan Blue Team.

...
Date: December 24, 2009.
Location: Spaceport of the'Sea of Wine' Colony.
Halsey, dressed in a white dress and a yellow sun hat, was walking through the reinforced and strengthened spaceport skybridge, her hands linked through William's right arm.
William was also dressed casually at this time, in black shorts and a white T-shirt, and wearing a pair of aviator sunglasses.
Following him and Halsey were a group of male Spartans in shorts and tank tops, and female Spartans in various casual outfits.
Hank and the Alphas were also uniformly dressed in black and white summer styles, wearing sunglasses like their boss.
Most of the Phantom's crew were wearing their own clothes, moving through the skybridge made of numerous glass walls, enjoying the strange scenery on the Moon.
Of course, as a member of the Phantom, Athena, the former Greek goddess, was also among the crowd.
However, she was no longer in military attire; instead, she was dressed casually like everyone else, in denim shorts and a white camisole.
A month and a half had passed since Kronos was eliminated.
And during this period, there were no reports of any anomalous phenomena, so William fulfilled his promise and led the Spartans to vacation at the Sea of Wine.
All members of the Phantom also benefited from the Spartans, coming along to visit the largest resort in the solar system.
