Manga from the Age of God

"Don't be so serious, man, we can go fishing in the canyons, even though the wheat yields aren't ideal... Salmon is way better than grits!"

After chatting for a while, a middle-aged woman named Dora was about to carry a bamboo basket to dry the fish when suddenly a farmer asked curiously:

"By the way, Dora, your belly...seems to be getting bigger."

"Have it?"

Dora stopped again, looked down, and smiled:

"It seems so, but I always feel that I just gained weight recently."

Twelve years of pregnancy, and putting it anywhere else would definitely cause panic.

However, the humans living in this village... or the entire Mediterranean area are somewhat abnormal compared to ordinary people.

They also have all kinds of miraculous superpowers.

So no one was surprised.

"It should be about to give birth, Dora, you still have to pay attention recently, don't run too far."

The people around were kindly persuaded.

"Production?"

Dora's face was blank, and she smiled bitterly:

"Three years and three years, twelve years have passed, and I'm getting used to this little guy in my stomach."

"Maybe my child will never be born."

She said 05 like this, and was about to say goodbye to the villagers when she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her abdomen and threw the bamboo basket in her hand involuntarily.

"Pana, Vassi... Wait a minute!"

Dora Mian called out to several villagers nervously, her tone of voice mixed with joy and anxiety.

"Help me call my husband... I'm probably going to give birth this time!"

In an instant, the quiet village suddenly jumped.

What kind of child will be born in twelve years of pregnancy... everyone is curious.

The villagers stopped farming and gathered outside Dora's earthen hut.

"Are you really going to give birth?"

"Maybe it's time to name the kid ahead of time."

"He must be the best farmer in the village in the future. Why don't he call him Walli!"

"...Don't you think there is a shortage of blacksmiths in the village? We should train that kid to be an excellent blacksmith!"

Amidst the chatter and anticipation of the villagers, a cry of a baby suddenly came out.

"It's a boy, very healthy!"

The woman who delivered the baby opened the door to announce the good news.

All cheered.

Dora's husband turned red with excitement.

Twelve years, it's not easy!

If it weren't for his more extraordinary strength than ordinary people, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to support his wife who was pregnant for so long.

"This child's name...it's called [Porferion]!"

The man - Dora's husband said seriously:

"I hope he can grow into a strong man like me, man!"

......

Above the clouds, Ash and Athena stood quietly together.

After repeatedly scanning the newborn boy with his own spiritual sense, Ash frowned.

"It seems that there is nothing too special - at least now, he does not have the blood of a giant!"

Athena also nodded.

"Yes, a human being."

But neither of them let their guard down.

Because [Porferion]...is the name of the giant king in Greek mythology.

The king of Kugantes who opposes the Olympian pantheon.

At this moment, Athena frowned suddenly.

She felt a sense of abnormality.

"...So it is, it is so!"

After silently sensing for a moment with her own soul will, Athena showed a sudden color.

"Let's go back."

"Then about the disposal of the Giant King?"

"Well, no need to deal with it."

Athena smiled and disappeared into the sky together with Ash.

After returning to God's Domain, she looked at the puzzled Yaxiu and explained calmly:

"The reason for the emergence of the [Giant Race] is actually related to Asclepius becoming a god."

"Ok?"

Ash looked surprised.

Why did he suddenly get involved with Asclepius?

"You should still remember the experience of Asklepios in Chaos - he once said that it seems that there are countless consciousnesses to help him share the pressure of Chaos and carry out the qualitative change of the small universe."

"And this time the birth of the giants... is not for any other reason, it is just some kind of atavistic phenomenon of human beings."

Under the narration of Athena, Ash also gradually figured out the whole story.

Because of the suppression of the gods, human beings have been continuously weakened and their bloodlines have been weakened, and they have begun to lose their mystery and have to return to the ordinary.

The invisible unwillingness in the bloodline eventually shaped various [wills].

But for various reasons, neither Athena nor Asclepius could complete their mission.

So in this era when the extraordinary is about to be completely lost, the bloodline made an effort.

Quickly push Asclepius to the realm of God.

However, even if he has become a god, he is only Bai Yin's legacy, but he still cannot make any changes to the status quo of mankind.

Without effective normal guidance, the blood can only try a more intense [self-rescue].

That is to say, let some human beings with extraordinary potential forcibly activate the mystery in the body at the cost of breaking the balance of the characteristics of all bloodlines, returning to their ancestors...

This atavism can even go straight to the source, traced back to the body of the [One-Eyed Giant].

That's why the humans with the [Cyclops Template] appear——they are also the existences called the [Giants] in the mythology of the other world.

......

"Is it certain that the giant was not created by the Mother Earth, can it be regarded as a branch of human beings?"

Ash thought:

"Then what are you going to do?"

"If there are too many giants, and an ambitious king leads them, they will definitely seek greater satisfaction in survival."

"They may shock the existing ordinary humans!"

"do nothing."

Athena just smiled and shook her head:

"Since giants are also a part of human beings, they are also qualified to live on the earth - it is better to say that all spirits have the right to live on the earth."

"As gods, we don't need to worry about it."

"Natural selection, if ordinary humans can't survive at all, they will change their form as a whole and evolve into extraordinary giants...actually not bad."

Well, Athena really has this attitude, but...

Yaxiu thought for a while, but decided to remind him vaguely.

"What if the giants were used by the Mother Earth or the King of Monsters?"

As soon as the words came out, he felt a little regretful in his heart.

If the existing environment on the Mediterranean side is changed, the throne of Apsu cannot be successfully assembled...

I'm really sorry.

Ash's question caused Athena's expression to change slightly.

She pondered and said:

"If that's the case, there's no way to just sit back and watch."

Although she said that she could not sit idly by, but Athena was very clear in her heart.

Right now, she has absolutely no strength to resist Gaia and Typhon.

Even killing the newly born [Giant King] Perferion would be of no use.

It was the last explosion of the entire human race, trying to continue to hold on to [Transcendent].

That is the unwillingness of the ancient golden bloodline.

The atavistic effect, even as a god, she can't cut it off.

And as long as there are a steady stream of giants born among human beings, as long as Gaia and Typhon have the heart to use the giants to compete for something on the earth.

Killing a mere Porferion doesn't change anything at all.
