Greece: I am the master of destiny!

In the endless starry sky, Asteria, the goddess of the night, held her swollen belly with both hands, her brows furrowed and her face pale.

The power of laws surrounding her was even more turbulent, and the faint hum of the laws could be heard.

This means that a brand new and powerful law is about to be born in this world, and it must be born with powerful divine power to resonate with the universe.

Upon hearing the faint buzzing sound, Asteria's face turned deathly pale, and her misty eyes looked to Prometheus for help.

With the permission of Gaia, the Earth Mother Goddess who governs the laws of fertility, she is trying to give birth to this child, but things are already starting to go wrong. How can she keep it a secret from the King of Gods?

If the God King discovers this, what will happen to her?

Asteria dared not think any further. Now, she was caught between giving birth and not giving birth, and could only stand there, at a loss.

Prometheus looked somewhat helpless. Just as he was about to make a move to cover it up, he noticed that the humming of the law suddenly stopped. A gentle force enveloped Asteria, isolating her from the divine power fluctuations of the child about to be born.

That is... Gaia's reproductive power.

Prometheus sensed it closely and discovered that Gaia's divine power far surpassed that of the twelve Titans, at least reaching the high level of divine power.

If she hadn't been so tormented and weakened by Uranus, she would probably have reached the pinnacle of divine power, after all, she was the first living being in the world, the mother of all things.

But because she is the mother of all things, she herself has little offensive power, which is probably intentionally done by the will of the Chaos world.

As the saying goes, with every gain comes a loss.

But such a powerful being must have its own foundation, so Prometheus began to ponder the promise Gaia had made to him.

What benefits should He ask for? He needs to think about it carefully. He can't possibly disgrace the status of the world's first living being.

As He pondered, Asteria sensed Gaia's presence and breathed a sigh of relief, allowing her to give birth with peace of mind.

And this life, which had been gestating in her womb for countless years, was finally born into this world amidst a violent tremor of the laws of the starry sky.

She was a goddess dressed in black, with long black hair cascading down like a waterfall, deep eyes, exquisite features, and skin as white as snow.

At the moment the goddess was born, the vague connection between Prometheus and her suddenly intensified, as if he had gained an alternate version of himself.

Although He cannot directly manipulate this clone, He can sense the clone's state and location, and can freely use the clone's abilities. Furthermore, the clone cannot disobey His commands at will.

The primary and secondary relationship between the two gods is very clear, and His own divine power was also increased slightly because of the birth of this goddess.

Is this from God?

Prometheus sensed it carefully, and his first reaction was—

She was indeed a powerful deity, and had reached the middle level of powerful deity, even stronger than Him.

Asteria herself was only of medium divine power. The last person of medium divine power to produce a powerful one was Clymene, the mother of Prometheus.

With such high-level initial divine power, it seems that this goddess's laws are definitely not weak.

Upon realizing this, Prometheus immediately examined this "freshly baked" divine law, and the next moment was filled with surprise and astonishment.

Because this goddess's rule is actually—

The past, the future, and the present of destiny.

This law is indeed powerful; no wonder he was born with mid-level divine power, even stronger than His own destiny change.

But the problem is...

Isn't this the law of the three Fates?!

The three Fates are:

Clotho, the weaver of destiny: She is responsible for spinning the threads of life at the moment a newborn is born, determining the starting point of a person's life;

The measurer of fate, the second sister Lachesis: She is responsible for measuring the length of the silk thread with a pole, determining how much suffering and joy a person will experience in their lifetime;

And then there's Atropos, the one who cuts the threads of fate: This eldest sister is the most ruthless. She wields "hateful scissors" and, once life comes to an end, she snips the threads with a snap, for everyone, whether commoner or king, to obediently step into death.

But now, these three laws, which should have been shared by the three gods, have appeared simultaneously on the goddess before us!

This left Prometheus utterly astonished.

What's going on here? He usurped Hecate's laws, so Hecate then usurped the laws of the Three Fates? Is that even possible?

As if sensing being watched, the newly born goddess raised her eyes, glanced at Prometheus, and smiled slightly.

"My name is Hecate. Nice to meet you..."

Prometheus thought to himself that this goddess was quite polite, and was about to say "all is well," when Hecate changed her tone and uttered four words in a roundabout way:

"My master~"

Prometheus: "..."

Prometheus was immediately speechless, and Asteria, who had just given birth, also looked embarrassed.

Seeing this, Hecate's smile deepened.

Prometheus could see that the goddess was doing it on purpose, but he didn't take it to heart. Instead, he said, "Come with me, this place is not safe."

"Yes, Master~"

"Don't call me master." Prometheus was exasperated. "Speak properly."

But Hecate answered him with a delighted laugh, her deep eyes full of mischief.

The two quickly left the starry sky, and Hecate never once looked at Asteria.

Gods are different from humans, especially the God of Laws, who can already know what is happening outside when they are conceived.

Therefore, Hecate knew perfectly well how eager Asteria was to sever ties with her.

He was now more aware that he was now bound to Prometheus, and of his own dangerous situation.

With the God-King explicitly stating that new laws are not allowed to emerge, the consequences for someone like her, who was born secretly, if discovered are self-evident. She can only rely on Prometheus to help her conceal her identity.

So what's the point of talking to this "biological mother"? Since she wants to sever ties, then let's sever them completely.

From that moment on, Hecate was only connected to Prometheus.

The problem she is facing now is also the problem that Prometheus needs to worry about.

It's good to have a powerful follower god, but how can we keep him well hidden? The God-King is not someone to be trifled with.

Prometheus thought for a moment and decided to ask Epimetheus if he could find a solution, as he also had some ideas that required Epimetheus's help to be realized.

After all, the god who is slow to realize things knows everything that happens in the world and can extract knowledge from these things; he is practically an encyclopedia.

To Prometheus's surprise, Epimetheus flew into a rage the moment he saw Hecate.
