Greece: I am the master of destiny!
Chapter 20 If I can't fool the God King, I can still fool you?
Prometheus spent some time comforting the heartbroken ocean goddesses and said he would go to the ocean to check on them to prevent the three thousand ocean goddesses and three thousand river gods from causing trouble after Oceanus and Tethys disappeared.
But just as He was about to leave, Epimetheus blocked His way.
Epimetheus was only up to Prometheus's thigh at this moment, but his young face was full of seriousness as he spoke earnestly:
"I sense that Atlas didn't go to support the heavens at all; he went towards the sacred mountain, to find the god-king Uranus!"
"Well, and then?" Prometheus asked.
"He must have gone to tell the King of Gods about your prophecy!" Epimetheus said anxiously. "Don't you understand? You're being watched!"
"I know, so this is how we got rid of Him?" Prometheus smiled. "Don't block my way, I have important business to attend to."
After saying that, he walked straight past the stunned Epimetheus and headed outside.
Only after He had walked quite a distance did Epimetheus suddenly realize something and shout at Him, "Did you do this on purpose?"
Prometheus smiled but did not answer, and continued sailing towards the ocean.
He did it on purpose, of course.
That prophecy, of course, was also false; it was something He specifically told Uranus.
As for the aura of destiny that the three gods sensed at that time... For a god of destiny, emitting a little aura is naturally not a difficult thing.
There are subtle differences between the aura of destiny and the aura of predestination that arises from a prophecy.
Such a gap cannot fool gods with superhuman strength, but none of the three gods present at the time had reached that level of divine power.
"You might not be able to fool the God King, but you, a mere Sky-Supporter, surely you'll be fooled?"
Prometheus chuckled to himself, but his pace remained remarkably fast.
He quickly reached the ocean at the edge of the world, but did not stop there. Instead, he headed towards an even more distant edge of the world.
Because the true target He wanted to visit on this journey was Pontus, the primordial sea god, brother of the god-king Uranus, and the god Gaia conceived alone.
Rather than being a sea god, Pontus is more accurately described as a deity symbolizing the depression of the earth, through which the ocean exists, corresponding to Uriah, the god of the convex earth symbolizing the mountains.
But now Uriah is gone, and only Pontus remains, struggling to survive under the oppressive power of the God-King.
With Uria completely wiped out and all twelve Titans sealed away, Gaia's resistance also failed. Pontos, who witnessed all of this, was now terrified.
He huddled at the edge of the world, trembling, trying to minimize his presence, fearing that he would be the next one to be dealt with by the God-King.
So when He realized that Prometheus was approaching Him, His first reaction was terror.
He even wanted to flee, afraid to meet Prometheus, fearing that Uranus was watching him, and even more afraid that Uranus would suspect that he was conspiring with the god of prophets to do something.
But Prometheus, as if anticipating His reaction, blocked His escape route.
"Great primordial sea god, Your Highness Pontus, why do you do this?" Prometheus asked, his voice filled with helplessness.
"You little brat, are you trying to kill me on purpose?" Pontos scolded, but his voice sounded weak and guilty.
Helpless, the primordial sea god was now in a panic, fearing that Uranus would descend upon this place at any moment and completely obliterate him as well.
"Your Highness, there is no need to panic. His Majesty the God-King is currently busy with other matters and will not be watching us."
Compared to His panic, Prometheus was much calmer, even wearing a faint smile.
Pontos, relieved to find himself unnoticed by the King of Gods, quietly asked, "What brings you here?"
"Let me make this clear from the start: I don't want to get involved in your family's affairs, nor do I want to oppose Uranus. I just want to stay in my ocean."
The last one to stand up for Gaia is now just a "corpse," and every time Pontos sees those high mountains in the world, he feels a sense of shared sorrow for the fallen.
So when Gaia's rebellion failed not long ago, and she suffered retribution from Uranus, her painful screams echoing throughout the world, Pontos simply covered his ears and didn't dare to look at her even once more.
Although he was Uranus's brother, he disliked fighting and was a kind-hearted person who followed his heart.
When Prometheus came to Him, He could more or less guess His purpose, so He made His position clear in advance.
Seeing this, Prometheus sighed again and said helplessly, "Your Highness, have you ever heard the saying, 'The tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease'?"
"Now that Uriah and the Twelve Titans have been dealt with, Your Highness, who do you think will be next? Or do you think the God-King will show mercy and spare you?"
Upon hearing this, Pontos's lips trembled, and his eyes were filled with bitterness.
"I know everything you're saying, but..." Pontos sighed, "If I resist, I will surely die; if I don't resist, I can live for a few more days."
"Little one, you've seen it too, Uranus... He's too powerful. What can I do?"
"You don't need to charge into battle, nor do you need to confront the King of Gods head-on," Prometheus said with a smile, "but you can end it all."
Pontus was stunned upon hearing this, and when he realized what Prometheus had said, he quickly waved his hands: "No, no, no, I can't."
Prometheus was somewhat helpless as he watched Pontus shaking his head so hard it looked like a rattle.
Actually, the most important thing is not to fight against the power of the God King, but to have unparalleled courage.
But the primordial sea god before us clearly does not exist.
"Believe me, you can do it," Prometheus said with utmost solemnity. "If you are willing to believe me, would you please listen to what I have to say?"
"you say."
"I cannot make detailed prophecies, otherwise the God-King will find out, but I can tell you that everything will end where it began."
"And you can eliminate future troubles."
"You don't need to do anything, just remember these few words of mine, and when the time is right, you will know what to do."
Pontos stared at Him blankly for a long time before finally making up his mind, his voice trembling as he said, "I... I want to ask the great Mother Goddess..."
Unlike the twelve Titans, Pontus never witnessed Prometheus's prophecy firsthand. Although he had heard the legend of Prometheus, he still found it hard to believe.
At this moment, only the great Mother Earth can give Him a sense of security.
In His view, Gaia was always more decisive than Prometheus, a junior.
"I'm afraid that won't work." Prometheus's expression grew increasingly helpless. "At this moment, Mother Earth should be busy searching for her sisters, looking for a way to break this deadlock."
After all, Prometheus believed that Gaia would not miss the blank time that He had painstakingly created.
but……
"But the revered Mother Earth will soon come to see me and ask if there is anything I can do, so if you have anything you want to say to her, I can pass it on for you," Prometheus said gently.
Pontos stared blankly as He so casually revealed Gaia's whereabouts and thoughts, and couldn't help but murmur:
"No need to ask, I..."
"I already know the answer."
