Greece: I am the master of destiny!

Deep within the dark earth, in the endless abyss, the mighty ocean god Oceanus lay in agony, his breath weak and feeble.

The sea goddess Tethys wiped the cold sweat from her forehead with a worried expression, while the other ten Titans had different expressions upon seeing this.

"It seems His Majesty the King of Gods has gone to wreak havoc on the ocean again," Hyperion, the sun god, couldn't help but say. "Even if we are sealed here, must we still endure suffering?"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the gods all changed.

Not all of the twelve Titans are law gods; Oceanus, Hyperion, and Crios are typical material gods.

Although their will can be erased, they are not as insignificant as the mountain god Uriah, whose consciousness is erased and who are left as the corpses of mountains, which has little impact on the world.

If the consciousness of the three of them were erased, whether it be the ocean, the sun, or a celestial body, they would all become "corpses," losing their original rules.

The ocean will erode towards the sea and land, the sun's light will no longer shine on everything, it may go out, it may expand, and celestial bodies... may fall and crash to the ground.

This is undoubtedly a devastating blow to the entire world.

Therefore, they could not die, so Uranus chose to imprison them along with the other gods of law.

But this also means that if Uranus continues to torment their "true form" outside, even though they are now imprisoned underground, they will still not be able to escape that painful torment.

Oceanus is the best example.

At this moment, He was weak, His divine power was declining, and He was in great pain.

Without a doubt, it was because the outer ocean was impacted. Who else but Uranus could have made such a large-scale operation?

This discovery plunged the gods into despair.

They thought being tortured was the worst it could be, then they discovered they were stuffed back into the Mother Goddess's womb and imprisoned for eternity. They thought imprisonment was the worst they could ever be, but now they find...

No, there's something even worse: even if you're imprisoned, you'll be tortured.

How could God not despair?

The gods couldn't even fathom how this was any different from waiting to die.

They didn't even know when Uranus would decide they were no longer needed and simply wipe them out.

What's more terrifying than death itself is the process of waiting for it.

The gods are currently in this process.

Just as they were all starting to panic and had no idea what to do, the voice of the Earth Mother Goddess Gaia rang in their ears.

"My poor children, your plight is so heartbreaking, yet your Father God, that merciless and heartless God-King, is still not satisfied and wants to utterly destroy you..."

"He torments you and imprisons you because of his ridiculous suspicions, and he has violated my laws of procreation, making a mess of the world and causing all the gods to live in torment and suffering. So why don't we end this wretched life?"

The twelve Titans, who were initially in pain and despair upon hearing Gaia's words, were all stunned into silence by the end.

Their expressions were utterly astonished; they could not believe that these words were spoken by the kind Gaia.

Although Gaia had rebelled against Uranus twice, her only thought at the time was to give birth to a child stronger than Uranus, and then rebel against Uranus so that he could no longer do such things to harm them.

But now, Gaia wants to end it all.

Doesn't this mean... Gaia wants to overthrow the God-King?!

At this moment, the gods couldn't help but recall the words spoken by the white-robed prophet many, many years ago.

He said that Uranus's relatives would eventually betray him.

For so many years, all the gods, including Uranus and the Twelve Titans, believed that the traitor was Uriah, who had been completely erased, or Pontus, but no god ever thought of it...

This relative was actually the kind-hearted Gaia who valued her child the most.

You know, Uranus was also her child, and her most beloved child, without exception.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. What could be closer to Uranus than Gaia, who was both his mother and wife?

The gods could hardly imagine how much torment this Mother Earth had endured to make such a decision.

But the problem is...

Gaia made up her mind, but they didn't!

Although they are now waiting to die, at least the death sentence has not been actually handed down.

If they dared to rebel against Uranus at this moment, and failed, Uranus would probably choose to completely erase them, even if it meant giving up the world.

not to mention……

Uranus is just too powerful!

Even if the twelve Titans plus Gaia were all together, they would be no match for Uranus. This was a battle they were destined to lose!

The gods were filled with dread at the thought of this and dared not utter a word.

Gaia was utterly disappointed upon seeing this.

She looked up and saw the goddess Hecate in black smiling and nodding at her, signaling her to continue.

Gaia finally managed to pull herself together a little. She thought to herself, since Prometheus had told her to say it, someone would surely step forward in the end.

Thinking this, she took a deep breath, raised her hand, and a huge, somewhat rough scythe, imbued with boundless life force, appeared before the Twelve Titans.

"These are the weapons I have prepared for you."

Gaia whispered, "This scythe is incredibly sharp; it can wound the body of Uranus, the king of gods. But only a male god can wield it. Who among you dares to take up this blade, attack Uranus, and lead the charge for the gods?"

silence.

Dead silence.

The life force of the giant scythe spread through the earth, and its sacred radiance shone in the eyes of every Titan, yet not one dared to step forward.

It was at this moment that Themis remembered Prometheus's prophecy that the "firstborn son" would become the swordsman, and her gaze unconsciously turned to Oceanus.

Her action reminded the gods, and soon all the gods remembered the prophecy and looked at Oceanus.

Oceanus felt the gazes of the crowd and couldn't help but tremble. He looked at the sacred scythe and fell into an indescribable hesitation.

The emptiness of diminished divine power, along with the lingering pain from the recent torment, made Him hesitate to approach.

Oceanus even recalled the torment Uranus had inflicted on him over the years, and the thought of facing Him soon filled him with a deep-seated fear.

"Mother Goddess, we are too weak! We are no match for the God King!"

Oceanus couldn't help but speak up, for He ultimately lacked the courage to grasp the scythe.

The other gods also remained silent, and not one of them spoke.

Gaia, seeing this, grew anxious and couldn't help but look at Hecate again.

The blades are all ready, but there's no one to wield them. How can we resist?

Faced with Gaia's questioning gaze, Hecate simply smiled and said with certainty, "Don't worry, my master said that a god will wield that scythe, and he will."

Almost before she finished speaking, a sudden change occurred in the endless, dark depths of the earth.

Amidst the astonished gazes of the gods, one god stepped forward and firmly grasped the scythe.

He said, "Mother Goddess, I have come!"
