Greece: I am the master of destiny!
Chapter 3 The Much-Anticipated Birth
"I, Uranus, Lord of the heavens, in my position as King of the Gods, bless this child and bring Him into this world."
On the sacred mountain, Uranus's majestic voice resounded in the ears of every god, and with His words, a strange wave connected with the entire world.
Prometheus felt that the world, which had been vaguely resisting His birth, had finally accepted Him at this moment.
"Buzz—"
Almost at the same time the world accepted Prometheus, a tremendous humming sound arose.
There was no source, yet it seemed to be the source everywhere. The sound was clear but not harsh, for it was the hum of the world, the vibration of the laws. Everyone had a premonition of a powerful, entirely new order...
born.
A divine authority that can resonate with the entire world must be an existence whose initial divine power is already immense!
(Reference image of Prometheus's body)
at the same time--
Prometheus opened his eyes.
"Was I finally born?"
He thought to himself and looked at his palm.
The childishness of the past is gone, replaced by the palm of an adult.
Because of His great divine power and complete divine duties, He was born in the form of an adult, around twenty years old.
As one becomes more familiar with their priesthood, their appearance will gradually become more mature.
Only those born with less than moderate divine power are in an infant state, indicating that they are not strong enough and need a growth period.
Take, for example, the infant that Prometheus was looking at.
The two babies, born at the same time, stared at each other, and then the baby seemed to realize something, pouted its little mouth, and started to cry loudly.
The crying startled the stunned gods.
Clymene was the first to react, and quickly picked up the baby and gently coaxed him. The other gods looked at each other, somewhat puzzled.
It's not unusual for a god to have twins, but it's rather strange that one twin is an adult and the other is an infant.
The appearance at birth is related to divine power, which means that one of the two children possesses great divine power, while the other possesses weak divine power...
"His law is to know everything that happens, that is, to be a god who knows after the fact, a weak god," Clymene said softly, holding the baby and sensing it carefully.
Uranus looked at the child who was crying incessantly and named him, saying, "Let him be called Epimetheus, meaning 'the one who is wise after the event'."
Iapetus and Clymene immediately bowed and thanked the great gods for bestowing upon them names.
Uranus nodded slightly, but showed little interest in Epimetheus. Instead, he looked at Prometheus with keen interest and asked with a smile, "Child, what is your divine office?"
Prometheus, imitating Iapetus, bowed respectfully and said:
"Reporting to the great King of Gods, I...I am the God of Prophecy, who can see what is about to happen in the future, and my name is Prometheus."
Uranus was not surprised that He knew His name.
Unless a deity is an infant and needs its parents to sense the laws and give it a name, most powerful deities know their own name and laws from birth.
What puzzled the gods was that the God of Prophet did not seem to hold a powerful divine position, yet this child was born with immense divine power, which should be due to some more powerful law.
But it's only natural that one of the twins was a prophet and the other was a hindsight.
Despite having similar divine roles, their divine power differed by a strangely large margin. Logically, their divine power should have been roughly the same.
However, no one suspected that Prometheus had concealed or deliberately mentioned other laws of divine authority, because compared to the reign of Zeus, the third generation of gods, this was still an age of ignorance.
At this moment, the world had just been created, and even the God of Lies had not yet been born. All the gods were gods for the first time, unlike the gods of later generations. They were all very simple and innocent, and had no idea that there were such things as "lying" and "concealing".
"The reason you have not been born yet is because Epimetheus has not yet completed his gestation. The mature aura that His Majesty the King of Gods sensed is actually only the gestation of Prometheus alone."
Gaia, the Earth Mother, looked at Prometheus, then at Epimetheus, who was very different from her, and said thoughtfully, "Perhaps Epimetheus will also attain great divine power in the future."
Completely unaware that he had been misled, Gaia could only come up with a reasonable explanation himself. Upon hearing this, the other gods nodded in agreement.
As for Epimetheus being prematurely born by Uranus, it's nothing unusual. Gods aren't that fragile; premature births can still occur outside the womb, just taking much longer.
We can't blame the King of Gods for such a trivial matter; no one would dare to do that, and Uranus certainly wouldn't think he was wrong, because the King of Gods is justice itself.
While they were discussing, Prometheus was also secretly observing the King and Queen of the Gods.
Uranus looked like a very dignified middle-aged man, with an imposing presence and an air of superiority.
Prometheus felt a chill run down his spine just from looking at Him, not because Uranus hadn't concealed his presence, but because being near Him was itself a form of oppression.
On the contrary, Gaia, the Earth Mother, had gentle eyes and a kind and loving gaze when she looked at the children. After noticing Prometheus's gaze, she smiled kindly at him.
The other gods also looked at Prometheus with curiosity.
It has been many years since a god with great divine power has been born, because normally, according to the sparse nature of divinity, only gods above gods can generate great divine power.
These twelve noble first gods, born from the union of Uranus and Gaia, possessed immense divine power from birth.
Although this child has only just been born and is not yet as powerful as the first generation of gods who have been in the stage of great divine power for a long time, his future should not be underestimated.
The only weakness of this law is that the Prophet Law is clearly not good at combat, and its attack power should be quite limited.
However, the great lord of the heavens, Uranus, the king of the gods, was too lazy to pay attention to Prometheus's unexpectedly powerful divine strength, since in his eyes all the gods were equally weak.
What concerned Him more were the prophetic laws that the gods were not particularly interested in.
"A prophet? Isn't that just a seer?"
Uranus looked Prometheus up and down, then asked with interest, "Interesting. Can you predict my future? Will I become more powerful?"
Upon hearing this, the gods fell silent, their eyes widening with curiosity, for this was something they also wanted to know.
Only Prometheus was on pins and needles, and cold sweat even broke out on his back.
Because only He knew that this was a life-or-death question.
