Greek Mythology: Starting with Becoming the God of the Breeze

Chapter 104 The Power of Family Bonds and the Growth of Redemption

The changes to Mother Earth Gaia undoubtedly brought many negative impacts to the future Chaos world.

This can be seen from what He did afterward.

After all, in the overall Greek mythology, Gaia has always been a character who tends to be chaotic.

Although not purely "evil," there were many instances where the wrong choices were made under the influence of maternal instinct and power imbalance.

He instigated the killing of his father and overthrew the first God-King.

Because Cronus was unwilling to release the Hundred-Handed Giants, he kept trying to overthrow them.

When it came to the third generation of gods, Zeus, Gaia gave birth to Typhon and supported him in defeating Zeus and taking his place.

It can be said that if Gaia were functioning normally, the Chaos world would be even more prosperous and powerful today.

But we can't blame Gaia entirely, since although He made a mistake, He didn't do it out of malice.

The first rebellion was a forced self-rescue under dire circumstances, a helpless resistance when forced into a corner by powerful forces.

As a mother, she couldn't protect her own offspring.

As the Earth Mother, unable to protect the world, the eruption of countless years of pent-up pain is an inevitable and reasonable occurrence.

The second time, towards Cronus, although He harbored resentment and plotted for years, He always stopped at planning and never started a bloody war, which is enough to prove that He still had goodwill in His heart and did not want to really overthrow the world and slaughter living beings. It's just that the pain of depression had nowhere to be relieved and He could only be stubborn in secret.

This shows that Gaia only talked the talk but did not walk the walk.

As for the third time.....

In some ways, Zeus deserved it.

It can be asserted that if Uranus had retained even a shred of tenderness and restraint, he would not have so ruthlessly trampled on Gaia's maternal instincts and dignity.

If Cronus could understand His pain and soothe His heart, the ancient conflicts and internal strife in the world of Chaos would be reduced by at least half.

With Gaia present, the earth will endure and life will never cease.

The entire Chaos region was bound to be far more prosperous, more flourishing, and more stable than any of the chaotic periods that had passed since.

Unfortunately, a god is a god.

God does not understand the human heart.

Kanas knew that a heart ailment requires a heart remedy, and emotional wounds need to be healed with gentle love.

He did not intend to "suppress" Gaia's resentment, nor did He intend to erase His stubbornness, much less to forcibly heal this wound.

Kanas slowly stepped forward and stood in the middle of the long river.

[Family Affection] The divine essence then shone, and a warm and gentle divine nature spread in all directions.

Om-!

The gentle divine power of kinship flows freely along the long river, transcending the barriers of time, and precisely descending upon that darkest and coldest period of time.

At that time, the earth was desolate and barren. Gaia, who had suffered the separation from his flesh and blood and the devastation to his very essence, was huddled alone on the desolate land.

His body was broken and his strength greatly diminished. His soul was filled with pain and despair. His once gentle and compassionate eyes were completely dimmed, leaving only endless brokenness and grief.

Never... never has any god reached out to help Him with His pain, and never has any being been able to empathize with His suffering.

Even now, wisps of divinity gently covered His broken body and tenderly enveloped His tormented soul.

There is no oppression, no pain, no coldness, no pity-filled condescension, only equal understanding, warm care, and pure healing.

This is the power of family love!

The hostility was slowly melted away by the warmth.

Those obsessive thoughts were gradually soothed by understanding.

Those lingering wounds are gently and slowly healed.

Over time, countless chaotic lines of cause and effect have quietly come to a correct order.

The conspiracies destined to ignite war, the conflicts destined to overthrow the monarchy, and the upheavals destined to tear the world apart were all quietly dissolved by the gentle power of healing.

This is not about forcibly eliminating hidden dangers, but about eradicating the scourge at its root.

When people's hearts are no longer wounded, there will be no more war in the world.

Outside, on Mount Oterus, all the gods stared intently at the trial scene that appeared simultaneously in their minds, their minds trembling, and an unprecedented, earth-shattering wave surged within them. The entire scene was deathly silent.

The gods subconsciously glanced at Gaia, the Earth Mother, who sat high on the platform. This ancient and supreme deity, who usually ruled the earth with dignity and never showed her emotions, now had slightly trembling shoulders, her clear eyes misty with layers of water, and crystal tears hanging between her eyelashes, making her seem fragile and vulnerable.

Millions of years.

Since the beginning of time, She has always protected the heavens and nourished all things with the tenacious and majestic posture of Mother Earth, bearing the desolation and pain of the beginning of time. No one has ever seen Her so vulnerable and moved, almost to tears.

"Mother Goddess..."

Themis looked at Gaia.

As a goddess, Themis was one of the few among the twelve Titans who could truly empathize with Gaia.

It wasn't because He was sentimental enough, but mainly because He possessed a sense of justice that other Titans lacked.

Previously, none of the gods felt they were wrong.

Because the entire Chaos world is like this.

Indifferent, callous, and focused on self-interest.

Before Kanas created the godhood of "family affection," the concept of family affection didn't even exist in the world of Chaos!

But the arrival of Canas completely shattered this rule.

They carry the cognitive and moral sense brought about by memories of their past lives.

With compassion and morality that transcended his time, He accomplished an ultimate, dimensional-reducing blow to the gods of the old era.

The gods are heartless, but He is compassionate.

The gods only know how to suppress and restrain, but He alone knows how to heal and embrace.

The difference is immediately apparent when the two are compared.

The remaining original Titans, upon seeing this, were overwhelmed with emotion and shame, feeling utterly ashamed.

The worst thing is comparison!

Compared to the compassionate and warm-hearted Kanas, their original offspring, who were blessed by their mother and bloodline, were indifferent, numb, and heartless, like beasts compared to Kanas.

The previous neglect and indifference transformed into piercing shame and embarrassment at this moment.

On the screen of my mind, the gentle divinity continues to flow.

The illusory image of Mother Earth, healed, understood, and treated kindly, slowly shed its gloom and hostility, and once again radiated the pure, gentle, and all-encompassing supreme maternal brilliance that existed at the beginning of time.

This is Gaia, the Earth Mother who gave birth to all things in the world!

The [Family] deity also demonstrated its power to the gods of Chaos for the first time.

Healing Gaia is just the beginning.

The subsequent events, such as releasing the Hundred-Handed Giant and preventing Cronus from devouring his own child, were all perfectly resolved by Kanas through his strength and wisdom.

After completing a series of tasks, Kanas felt that the [Redemption] divine essence within him seemed to have grown considerably.

The third round of trials has ended!
