Chapter 267 Stepmom's Defense Battle (5.6k)_2
Of course, if one thought that way, they would fall into the trap.
At that moment, Luo En gave a slight smile, his gaze twinkling.
"The wealth that is created together, should it be divided equally?"
"Yes..."
This time, Themis's response was hesitant, a slight furrow forming between her brows.
With the groundwork laid, Luo En revealed his sharp argument.
"Then, as the primary and principal party at fault in a marriage, should one adhere to the principle of taking less or none of the jointly created wealth when the marriage cannot be sustained, appropriately compensating the other party whose rights were infringed upon?"
The heart of Themis shook, and she immediately realized the malicious intent hidden within the arguments.
This was to make her cut the marital laws between Zeus and Hera under the guise of upholding fairness, while also ensuring that the Queen of Olympus's divinity and divine authority remained unaffected.
The Goddess of Justice looked somberly at a certain defender in court, "Are you asking me to stand on her side?"
"No, I only hope you stand on the side of justice, to practice the fairness you pursue!"
The defender shook his head solemnly, and then proclaimed loudly and righteously.
"The sword of the law should not only strike the weak!"
Justice? Fairness?
Themis clenched the long sword in her hand, her expression complex.
Since when had she become increasingly unfamiliar with these concepts?@@@@
"Since the Marriage Laws you formulated cannot restrain one party who continues to err, they should not become the shackles preventing the other party from pursuing happiness"
Luo En spoke solemnly, expressing his perspective, then earnestly looked at Themis.
Thinking about her chaotic family life, Hera couldn't help but feel her blood pressure rise, her heart grievously burdened.
However, as her gaze swept over the figure standing protectively in front of her, speaking eloquently in her defense, and striving to maintain her reputation and fight for her rights, the clouds in the Queen's heart seemed to scatter.
At least, there was someone in the world who understood her...
And on reflection, that stop-and-go time was probably her most unrestricted, happily relaxed days.
"It seems you indeed weren't happy."
Meanwhile, Themis caught the change in Hera's expression, and sighed softly.
"So be it, I will personally break the mistakes I made.
Speaking, the Goddess of Justice gradually drew the Sword of Judgment from its sheath, resolutely striking down in front of Hera."
"Crack!"
A sound like shackles shattering echoed on Hera's body, and the Queen immediately felt a lightness in her body, as if some invisible restraint had been quietly severed.

Along with the pleasant metallic sound, Themis sheathed the Sword of Judgment back into its sheath and spoke gravely.
"There, I have cut off the bindings of those Marriage Laws, you are free now. From now on, you remain the Queen, but not as the wife of the Divine King, but because of your own contributions to Olympus. Therefore, you need no longer depend on him, and retain your divinity and authority."
Hearing this, Hera trembled and lifted her hand, sensing the divinity and divine power within her that had not diminished much, her face alight with incredible joy.
The action taken by Themis was beyond her expectation, erasing all her worries.
Since her marriage with Zeus was only nominally existent, there was no need to forcibly stick together; managing separately was fine.
Keeping up appearances, divorce without leaving the household would suffice.
And this practically perfect decree, owed everything to someone who had passionately defended her before the Goddess of Justice Themis.
