Greece: I am the master of destiny!

Chapter 21 The Power of Destiny

"It's over, it's all over. From the very beginning, Father God never intended to let us go!"

In the deepest part of the earth, in the chaotic world, the celestial god Crios, his face contorted in pain, murmured incessantly.

The other eleven Titans were also ashen-faced.

"Hmph, if only you had known this would happen, you wouldn't have done it in the first place!"

Themis, the goddess of justice and order, spoke coldly, the disdain in her eyes hidden behind a white cloth.

In this endless abyss of chaos, the radiant and holy golden light on her body was tainted, appearing dim and lifeless, yet she still looked on with a cold, mocking expression.

Not long ago, when the three powerful hundred-handed giants rebelled against the King of the Gods, and Prometheus came as an envoy to persuade them, Themis felt that they should rise up in rebellion. However, the other eleven Titans were hesitant and timid, which ultimately led to the missed opportunity.

Now it's great, there's no need to resist, it goes straight to the stomach.

The gods couldn't help but feel a little regretful, thinking that they should have listened to Prometheus's advice, but now it was too late.

Are we going to be trapped here forever?

The beautiful goddess Phoebe's eyes reddened as she murmured, "My child must be terrified. What should I do?"

The gods looked at each other, and all of them couldn't help but sigh.

"Sister Fube, don't worry too much, Asteria will be safe and sound," the sea goddess Tethys said softly.

Asteria, the goddess of the night, was the eldest daughter of Phoebe and Coeus, while Leto, the goddess of the night, was the second daughter of the two gods.

But that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Asteria is pregnant at this moment!

Unfortunately, Asteria had just become pregnant when Uranus ascended to the throne of the gods and declared that the gods were no longer allowed to have offspring.

Thus, the child in Asteria's womb could not be born, and she remained pregnant for hundreds or even thousands of years.

Under the protection of Coeus and Phoebe, Uranus did not notice anything unusual about Asteria.

But now that Coeus and Phoebe have both disappeared, Asteria has instantly lost its protection. How could Phoebe not be worried...

Asteria didn't even want to imagine the consequences if Uranus were to discover that she was pregnant.

The best way to save Asteria's life is to have her secretly give birth to the child and then abandon it.

But how easy is that?

Seeing tears in his wife's eyes, Coeus sighed helplessly and could only offer quiet words of comfort.

The other gods were also discussing amongst themselves, and their voices woke up the hundred-armed giants and cyclops that Gaia had finally managed to calm down.

Then more and more sounds arose, and the entire underground world became incredibly noisy.

Gaia, his head throbbing from the noise, finally snapped and yelled, "Shut up, all of you!"

The majestic voice of the Earth Mother echoed from the depths of the earth. The gods exchanged bewildered glances, and Phoebe was the first to speak, weeping, "Revered Mother Goddess, we beg you to save us! And if you could, we also beg you to save Asteria!"

After Phoebe spoke up, the other gods also hurriedly cried for help, and for a moment, the sounds from underground became noisy again...

Gaia grew increasingly agitated, her originally gentle voice now tinged with impatience: "I will naturally find a way to save you all. Quiet down!"

"Then Asteria..."

"I'll find a chance to rescue them too!" Gaia said impatiently. "Shut up, shut up, shut up!"

The twelve Titans then fell silent, but the hundred-armed giants and cyclops deeper inside were not so fully conscious, and Gaia had to spend a lot of effort to calm them down.

Once her mind finally calmed down, Gaia let out a heavy sigh of relief, her face etched with exhaustion.

She looked up and saw only darkness before her; this was the Land of Eternal Night.

It is also the abode of Nyx, the sister of Gaia and one of the five original gods, representing the night.

Compared to Gaia, the goddess of night, Nyx, is less personified. She is very low-key, almost never leaves the land of eternal night, and never gets involved in the battles between gods.

Gaia came to her this time because of her goddess Ananke, one of her three aspects.

Nyx's power stems not only from being the night itself, but also from her three phases, which are:

Ananke, the goddess of destiny;

Adrasteia, the goddess of natural laws;

And finally, Heimarmene, the goddess of cause and effect.

The term "three phases" does not mean that Nyx can split into three people, but rather represents the multidimensionality of her divinity.

She is the mother who gives birth to all darkness, the ruthless tailor who weaves the laws of fate, and the ultimate law of the universe itself, which even the King of Gods must revere.

Gaia had now completely broken with Uranus. She hated this arrogant god-king, but she didn't know what to do. She herself had no fighting power, and all her children had been wiped out...

Left with no other choice, Gaia could only come to this land of eternal night, hoping to get an answer from Nyx.

There was nothing Gaia could do but submit to the bullying of the powerful God-King.

Even coming to this land of eternal night requires sneaking around, taking advantage of the God-King's inattention.

Fortunately, Nyx, the goddess of night, did not avoid her.

But to her surprise, when she explained her purpose and laid out everything, seeking a solution, the goddess, shrouded in darkness and whose face was obscured, asked her with some doubt:

Why did you choose to ask me?

Gaia was taken aback by the question.

"If you want to find a way out of this predicament, you shouldn't come to me. I am the inevitable destiny; I can only see what is bound to happen."

"But now you are tainted by the unpredictability of fate. I cannot see your future, because anything is possible in your future."

Nix explained that his voice was almost flat, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

"Then who should I go to?" Gaia was stunned, completely unexpected this outcome.

"Go find the god who has tainted you with the aura of uncertainty; perhaps He can solve your current problems and help you achieve the outcome you desire."

Gaia blinked, stunned. She had no idea when she had been tainted by that so-called "aura of change"!

As if sensing her confusion, Nyx raised his hand and pointed his pale finger at Gaia. Instantly, a mysterious and incomprehensible aura emanated from Gaia.

Gaia suddenly realized that this feeling... wasn't it the same feeling he had when he heard the god of prophecy make his prophecy about the future, the feeling of being locked onto in the dark?

Wait, is this the aura of a change in fate?

Gaia suddenly realized something, her eyes widened, and she was overwhelmed with emotion and shock.

That little fellow named Prometheus wasn't a god of prophecy at all, but rather—

God of Destiny!

No, that's not right. If it were just the god of fate, she and Uranus couldn't have been completely unaware. Therefore, He must have both the laws of prophecy and the laws of fate!

Only in this way can we explain why Uranus, the king of the gods, was deceived!

She recalled Prometheus's words when he came to her but was driven away.

He said that if one day she was desperate, she could go to Him again, and perhaps then she would be willing to listen to His words.

And isn't this precisely the moment when she has nowhere to turn?!

What he said was so accurate; that little guy probably foresaw this day long ago!

Gaia felt a storm raging in her heart, and she was unable to calm down for a long time!
