Greece: I am the master of destiny!

Just as Prometheus had predicted, Gaia did indeed come to find Him, and at the time He had anticipated, Gaia's expression was as complex as He had guessed.

"Revered Mother Earth, Great Mother Gaia, you do not look well."

Prometheus feigned concern and asked, "Is there anything I can do to help?"

Gaia looked at the white-clad youth before her with a complicated expression, watching him exchange pleasantries with her in a pretentious manner.

How could there be such a cunning god?

He actually dared to conceal his laws from the God-King! And he even deceived both the God-King and her...

In this era of primordial chaos, when the gods were still quite simple and kind, Prometheus's actions opened Gaia's eyes to a whole new world.

But upon closer reflection, Gaia felt relieved.

Prometheus possessed prophetic abilities and may have already seen through what kind of god Uranus was. Under such pressure from the king of the gods, he would naturally think of protecting himself.

After all, if Uranus knew that Prometheus was also a god of change, Prometheus's fate would probably be a hundred times more tragic than that of her children.

This little guy is so cautious and meticulous, taking things one step at a time, ultimately because he was forced into it...

Upon realizing this, Gaia's maternal and kind gaze towards Prometheus softened, replaced by sympathy and pity.

Prometheus was completely baffled.

But before Prometheus could ponder the meaning of that gaze, Gaia spoke, her tone surprisingly gentle:

"Prometheus, I was wrong before. I was blinded by anger and rejected your kindness. Please don't take it to heart."

With the Earth Mother Goddess personally apologizing, Prometheus couldn't afford to be presumptuous and quickly said it was alright, it was all the fault of the King of Gods, and so on.

"Time is of the essence, so I won't stand on ceremony. I've reached the dead end you mentioned. What should I do in this situation?"

Upon hearing this, Prometheus smiled slightly and explained his pre-thought-out plan to Gaia in detail. Gaia's eyes brightened as she listened, and finally she couldn't help but exclaim in admiration:

"Prometheus, my good child, you are so wise. With your method, I have seen hope."

"I consider this something I owe you, but I don't know how to thank you right now. Is there anything you want?"

Seeing Prometheus's troubled expression, Gaia chuckled and said, "No rush, take your time to think it over. I'll make it happen for you once you've made up your mind. I have to go now; I need to go to the stars."

Prometheus's heart stirred slightly, and he asked, "Great Mother Earth, is there something you need?"

Gaia nodded and briefly recounted Phoebe's request, saying, "I need to visit Asteria before Uranus discovers I've left the sacred mountain, and then secretly help her give birth to this child."

The child of Asteria, the goddess of the night? Prometheus pondered, then his eyes widened suddenly.

Asteria's child, isn't that... Hecate?!

Hecate, the goddess of chance, helped Zeus win the Titanomachy, which shook the universe, and in return, Zeus granted her power that transcended the sky, the earth, and the sea.

Her laws represent the "randomness" and "chance" of fate, capable of bestowing blessings at will or instantly bringing disaster.

In other words... the variables of fate that Prometheus now possesses!

Because Prometheus was born earlier and was a variable in the otherworldly soul realm, he preemptively seized this law, therefore...

What law governs Hecate's birth?

Or is it because the laws were taken over, that it directly became a god without laws?

Prometheus suddenly became curious.

As the world developed, almost all laws came into being. Later gods, however, had almost no laws. Because they had no laws, these gods were generally weak.

I wonder which scenario applies to Hecate?

With this in mind, Prometheus suddenly had an idea.

He said to Gaia, “Respected Mother Goddess, it is too risky for you to go to the stars now. You might be discovered by the King of Gods if you are not careful. Why don’t I go in your place?”

Gaia was taken aback by his words, a hint of emotion appearing in her eyes: "Good child, you have a kind heart, but... now the God-King does not allow the birth of new gods. If Uranus finds out that you helped me give birth to Asteria, I'm afraid he will punish you."

"It's alright. It's worth taking a little risk to serve the great Mother Goddess," Prometheus said with a smile.

Gaia was deeply moved and repeatedly said that she would repay Prometheus in the future and would do her best to cover Prometheus's tracks and stop the King of Gods before leaving.

As Gaia's figure gradually disappeared into the distance, Prometheus wasted no time and went directly to the starry sky to find Asteria, who was heartbroken because Phoebe and Coeus had disappeared at the same time.

Asteria's eyes were red and swollen, and tears still clung to her delicate face. She reached out and touched her high, protruding belly, from which she could vaguely feel the powerful aura emanating.

Upon seeing Prometheus suddenly appear, Asteria was stunned, and a look of vigilance appeared in her eyes.

When Prometheus explained his purpose and said that he had been entrusted by Phoebe and Gaia to help her, Asteria relaxed slightly, but her eyes became even redder and moist.

"My mother cares so much about me, yet I can't do anything for her, and I'm causing her so much worry..." Asteria murmured, deeply saddened.

"Your Highness Asteria, your well-being is the greatest act of filial piety you can show. Phoebe would certainly not want to see you so heartbroken," Prometheus advised.

Asteria sniffed and nodded, saying, "You're right. Thank you, God of Prophecy."

But soon, a hint of hesitation appeared in her eyes, and she said with a helpless bitter smile, "But now the God King does not allow new gods to be born. If I give birth to this child, I'm afraid I will be punished."

"But now that you've lost your protection and the King of Gods has discovered you're pregnant with a new god, you'll be punished just as well." Prometheus said with some helplessness, "That's why the goddess Phoebe is in such a hurry."

"What Your Highness Phoebe and Your Highness Gaia mean is that you should secretly give birth to this child, then abandon it and sever all ties. Mother Earth Gaia will cover up the birth of this child for you, and Uranus will naturally not blame you."

"But where can I throw it?" Asteria anxiously touched her lower abdomen. "Can I kill Him?"

Prometheus was taken aback.

Although killing the child was indeed the best way to dispose of the body, at this point, many gods and children didn't have such a deep emotional bond; it was more of a cooperative relationship...

But Asteria's unwavering attitude still surprised Him somewhat.

But it makes sense, because of this child, Asteria has probably been living in fear and anxiety all these years, treating Him as a burden, which makes it difficult for her to feel affection for Him.

only……

"I'm afraid that won't work. This child is radiating such power even before it's born. It must be a law, and once a law is born, it cannot be destroyed," Prometheus said.

"Then what can we do?" Asteria's eyes showed despair. "I don't have the divine power to seal Him away forever..."

"Why don't you give Him to me?" Prometheus said cautiously. "I will take good care of Him."

"But won't this be a burden to you..." Asteria hesitated.

"No," Prometheus said with a smile.

"Then thank you very much. I hereby swear, as the mother goddess of this child, that this child will become your servant god. How you deal with him is entirely up to you. I will remember your kindness."

Asteria spoke without hesitation, saying gratefully, "I will definitely find a way to repay you in the future."

Before Asteria could finish speaking, with the hum of the laws, Prometheus felt a connection between himself and the unborn child, and couldn't help but smile slightly.

Even glancing at Asteria's protruding belly, one couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.

This was the first one He received from God.

Hecate... what law will you be this time?
