Greece: I am the master of destiny!

Chapter 70 The Golden Age

A hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye since the gods created this thing.

They created thousands of different kinds of life, which finally brought some color to the originally empty world.

When everything was finally done, Oceanus let out a heavy sigh of relief, a tired but satisfied smile on his face: "Great, now we don't have to worry about the ocean being empty anymore."

As the most diligent god of the past century, Oceanus created the most creatures, with at least half of those thousands of life forms being marine life, far more than life forms on land.

Hearing Oceanus's exclamation, the other gods also showed expressions of satisfaction.

Putting aside other things, at least in the future, they won't need to do some simple things themselves.

Because they not only created humans, but also many nymphs, some of whom could be taken back to their palaces.

Moreover, seeing these lives that resemble oneself but bow down to one another is a kind of spiritual pleasure in itself.

So even though they didn't gain any benefit from this creation, the Titans were still very happy.

Of all those who benefited most from this creation, the one who openly gained the most was undoubtedly the god-king Cronus.

As the God-King, the better the world develops, the more creative power He can obtain, simply because He is the representative of this world.

After two hundred years, Cronus has now gained complete recognition from the world, mastered the power of creation, and become a true god-king.

He finally had the ability to find a way to retrieve the essence that had been severed from him by Uranus.

Besides Cronus, Themis was another goddess whom the gods envied.

After the birth of humankind, the part that Themis felt was always missing in the world was finally completed.

She instantly found her direction. Guided by Prometheus, she decided to establish the most basic order and laws for this world, and for this purpose, she set off to walk on the earth again.

This time, she will observe the creations of the gods, especially humankind, the most intelligent of all beings, and then create a code of law suitable for all things.

This is a long process, but once completed, Themis's divine power will undoubtedly increase greatly, and even her laws will become more powerful.

The gods were more than just envious of this.

But the other gods have no laws of order and fairness, so there's no use in envying them. If they want to become stronger, they can only keep making babies. And because they were spurred on by Themis, they worked even harder.

The new rules that arise from the union of the gods are mostly extensions of their own authority, which not only strengthen their own lineage and expand their powers, but also improve the world.

The world of Chaos, whose evolution had been halted due to Uranus's monopolistic rule, finally entered a period of rapid development hundreds of years after Uranus was overthrown, during which countless gods of the third generation were born.

Because resources were abundant, there was little scheming among the gods, and no competition between them, so the world enjoyed a rare period of peace.

Later generations even referred to this era as:

—The Golden Age.

However, what the gods did not know was that the true winner of this creation was Prometheus, who seemed to have gained nothing.

Standing in the increasingly stable underworld, feeling the power flowing continuously from the outside world, Prometheus couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

Thanks to the efforts of the gods over a hundred years, the creations of the underworld are now scattered across the earth.

The most obvious benefit of this is that the Chaos world finally acknowledges the existence of the underworld and allows the matter of the underworld to return to the underworld after the accidental death of those creations.

This substance is the soul.

Once the concept of the "soul" emerged, the underworld became an indispensable part of the Chaos world.

As the ruler of the underworld, the most direct benefit Prometheus received was—

In the outside world, the underworld is immortal, He is immortal, and cannot be imprisoned or sealed, unless the entire underworld is imprisoned and sealed together.

In the underworld, He is the true ruler.

"At least I can feel a little safer now, without having to worry about being targeted by those messy gods of later generations."

As he looked at the ever-growing Underworld, the sense of urgency that had been lingering in Prometheus's heart since his transmigration finally eased slightly.

There was no other way; his future opponent was a numerical monster, the kind who was always unpredictable and possessed super strength. To counter this overpowered opponent, Prometheus could only work even harder.

Moreover, at this level, He can at most remain invincible when facing Zeus; He is still far from being able to win.

but……

"I still have some time. It seems I need to get the final plan in place as soon as possible. Kronos, don't let me down."

Prometheus murmured to himself, his gaze fixed on the distant sacred mountain, his expression full of profound meaning.

Meanwhile, Cronus, who was being given high hopes by Prometheus but was completely unaware of this, was raging on the mountaintop.

"Why can't we find that last trace of our original essence?! The Underworld, that damned Underworld!"

Cronus rarely lost his composure like this, but at this moment he was so angry that he was almost out of his mind.

After acquiring the full power of the god-king, Cronus's first thought was to reclaim his severed origin.

He succeeded, but he also failed.

He successfully recovered most of the original essence that Uranus had severed, but he could not recover what was stolen when He died in the Underworld.

Without a doubt, He has completely lost the laws that He lost in the underworld.

This left Him with something that was always missing, preventing Him from ever reaching perfection and preventing Him from ever reaching the heights that Uranus, the Lord of the Heavens, had once achieved.

Because of the lack of his original essence, this second-generation God-King was destined to be weaker than the first-generation God-King.

How could Cronus not be angry?

Queen Rhea watched Him with great concern and a helpless expression.

With Rhea's words of comfort, Cronus gradually regained his composure.

But before He could even consider how to retrieve those primordial elements from the underworld, He heard Rhea share in a joyful tone:

"Great God-King, my love, forget about that despicable thief for now, I have some incredibly joyous news to tell you!"

Seeing Rhea's radiant and beautiful appearance, Kronos's pent-up frustration finally dissipated, and a slight smile appeared on his face.

He reached out and embraced his beautiful wife, asking, "Oh, my beautiful Queen Goddess, what has happened to make you so happy?"

"This will definitely be something that will bring you joy!"

Rhea smiled, touching her flat stomach with immense happiness, her voice filled with sweetness: "We're finally going to have our second child!"

Cronus's smile froze, his eyes widening in disbelief, so shocked that he couldn't even control his expression for a moment.

However, Rhea was completely immersed in happiness and sweetness at the moment and did not notice Cronus's unusual behavior.

After Prometheus revealed the contents of the curse, Cronus never mentioned it again. The gods all thought that he didn't believe it at all, but in fact, he just kept it to himself.

He tried every means to delay the arrival of the curse, but as the king of gods and blessed by Gaia, He was destined to have children.

He just didn't expect this day to come so soon...

Rhea was completely unaware of Cronus's unusual behavior. She was still lost in her own daydreams, stroking her lower abdomen and saying with a blissful expression:

"My beloved Your Majesty, this time, perhaps we can have a boy. Hestia has long expressed her desire for a younger brother."

"He will surely be a healthy and intelligent child, and as brave as you."

Kronos: "?"

Kronos: "..."
