Greece: I am the master of destiny!
Chapter 76 The Union of Wisdom and Prophecy
Prometheus was not unaware that Metis was spying on him.
Prometheus could only sigh at the "youthful innocence" that the goddess of wisdom inadvertently revealed, thinking that she was still too young.
No wonder she could fall in love with Zeus with just a few words despite having mastered the laws of wisdom, and from then on she devoted herself to Zeus, even becoming his external brain.
Even when Zeus became fickle and entangled with various goddesses, Metis remained steadfastly by his side.
Ultimately, Metis was just a little girl who had been pampered by the Ocean Couple since childhood, and suffered from her lack of knowledge.
However, the principles of wisdom are still very useful.
When Prometheus asked him, Metis quickly explained the pros and cons.
It was obvious that Hestia couldn't be saved, but since she was already "stuck in our hands," we couldn't just throw her away.
The most crucial issue at this moment was how to sever ties with Hestia and prevent Cronus from taking advantage of the situation to attack the ocean and the underworld.
This matter is both difficult and easy.
"Perhaps we should go and see Hestia first," Prometheus said, and Metis's eyes lit up.
The two exchanged a glance and realized they were thinking the same thing.
Metis couldn't help but smile slightly. This was the first time someone had been able to keep up with her train of thought. The goddess of wisdom felt like she had met her match.
But the prophetic god didn't pay much attention to her, a feeling that puzzled her greatly.
As the most dazzling pearl in the ocean since birth, Metis was used to being the center of attention wherever he went.
The laws of wisdom allowed her to easily see through the greed for wisdom hidden beneath others' flattery, and she also became accustomed to being hypocritical with all sorts of people.
This was the first time there was no flattery, no praise, and none of those nauseating pretentious gestures; it was simply a win-win cooperation.
How should I put it... this feeling...
Not bad.
Prometheus had no idea what Metis was thinking; he was pondering what to say to Hestia to achieve his goal.
And Hestia... the goddess of the hearth is now in a panic.
Hestia, who had lived on the sacred mountain since birth and heard Rhea cursing Prometheus from time to time, knew all too well how much Cronus loathed this prophetic god.
Although Hestia didn't know what this prophetic god had done to make the king and queen of the gods hate him so much, she knew very well that if Cronus found out that she was involved with Prometheus, she would be finished.
Cronus will not let her off the hook; he may even consider her a traitor to Him.
But the underworld is an independent world, and she cannot escape without Prometheus's permission.
Therefore, when Hestia met Prometheus, she completely refused to communicate with him.
"Your Highness Hestia, I deeply sympathize with your plight. Is there anything I can do to help you?"
Seeing that Hestia completely ignored him, Prometheus was not angry. He patiently said, "I have a good relationship with Oceanus, the god of the ocean. Oceanus has instructed me to protect you."
"If you don't mind, you can stay in the Underworld forever. Even the King of Gods won't be able to find you."
Prometheus spoke sincerely, but Hestia remained silent. Prometheus could only sigh and finally said:
"His Majesty the God-King is not as kind and friendly as you imagine. If you need help, you can come to me anytime."
Hestia, who had not reacted to His words before, was somewhat dissatisfied upon hearing this, but still said nothing.
Although Hestia still doesn't understand why her father wanted to eat her sister and herself, Cronus has always maintained a humble and friendly demeanor over the years, which makes Hestia instinctively dislike anyone speaking ill of him.
But since they were in the underworld, Hestia did not voice her thoughts and remained silent.
Prometheus gave her a deep look, then left with Metis, who had remained silent throughout.
Hestia watched their figures gradually disappear into the distance until they were no longer visible, then she let out a soft breath.
She began to regret asking Dayang for help.
The ocean has such a good relationship with Prometheus; what if Father God found out about her connection with Prometheus...?
Hestia couldn't help but shudder at the thought of the consequences of being discovered by Cronus.
She immediately resolved in her heart that she must find a way to escape the underworld and then seek help from other Titans. She absolutely could not let her father know that she had been saved by the ocean and the underworld.
Having made up her mind, Hestia began to figure out how to escape the underworld.
Fortunately... she actually found a way out, and the journey was smooth and unobstructed.
Looking at the suddenly open world before her, Hestia almost burst into tears of joy. She didn't dare to delay for a moment and hurriedly left this extremely dangerous place.
She decided that this time she would seek help from the stars.
...
At the same time, the instant Hestia left the underworld, Nike, the goddess of victory, received a message from her mother, Styx, the goddess of the Styx, informing her of the news.
She immediately wanted to find Prometheus and tell him that the red goddess who had been captured had escaped.
Little Niko saw two white figures in the sea of spider lilies; they were Prometheus and Metis, and the two were talking about something.
Just as Nicholas was about to step forward, Hecate, who appeared out of nowhere, stopped him.
"What are you doing?" Hecate asked her. "Just a reminder, it's best not to disturb adults when they're busy."
Upon seeing Hecate, Nicolas cried out anxiously, "Sister Hecate, Princess Hestia has secretly run away! We must hurry and tell Prince Prometheus!"
Hecate couldn't help but scoff upon hearing this: "You mean, right under the noses of a prophetic god and a goddess of wisdom, someone escaped from the underworld—a realm from which one cannot leave without the permission of the lord of the underworld?"
"If I told people this, would anyone believe me?"
Although Nicholas thought the words sounded a bit strange, upon closer inspection, they seemed to make sense, so she nodded.
Seeing this, Hecate smiled with relief, realizing that the child wasn't so stupid after all, and was indeed teachable...
"Yes, that's how she escaped. Shouldn't we send someone to catch her immediately? Otherwise, we might not be able to bring her back."
Little Niko tilted his head and asked very seriously.
Hecate: "..."
Forget it, there's no hope. Just wait to die.
