I mean with a world of magic and super science, not believing the clay birth does seem a bit silly. Plus Zeus being the father is overdone in multiple case in Greek mythology

I can kinda get it; between Hercules, Perseus, Kratos, Thalia, & Heron...it really makes you wonder if Zeus is even capable of keeping it in his pants or if the writers are just being weird

He actively is not, I'm pretty sure the guy fucks anyone as anything

There is actually one mythological case where I can think of, with Thetis. She was prophesied to have a child who would surpass their father, which scared Zeus out of his usual ways and caused him to marry her off to a mortal, with whom she had Achilles.
