Chapter 127: Chapter 97 The Forgotten Goddess
In the heart of the Abyss, Laine spoke in an even tone, yet his words stirred tempestuous waves in Cronus’s heart.
To create a world, in the previous era, no god knew what this ant, but now, there was not a single god who did not desire it.
Even though most deities were unaware of the deeper secrets behind it, Laine, like a Primordial God, lived in seclusion beyond the world, unaffected by two changes of Divine Kings, and even the Twin Gods of the Dark Night found him untouchable, a fact known to all.
For the forr Divine King and the Primordial Gods, though, they saw sothing deeper. To effortlessly seal a True God, to step outside the frawork of current-day laws, they might not have grasped the most fundantal secrets, but what was now revealed was enough to excite them.
The complete will of Chaos World rarely interfered with the gods, or rather, aside from the one ti Laine created a world, no other god had ever felt its presence. However, the part of it that existed in this world was different; it constantly reminded the gods that, though they seed immortal, a sword still hung above their heads.
This was unbearable for them, and so the feeling of rebellion naturally erged, along with an intensifying desire to create their own worlds.
Cronus felt this especially strongly. Even without the authority of ‘Indeterminable Destiny,’ once he created a world, the impact of fate on him would greatly diminish, and he was very clear about this fact. Just like the Abyss, its connection to the current world was limited to a mutually connected passageway, and thus, throughout the ages, it had never undergone any changes due to fate.
But because he understood this very clearly, Cronus found it sowhat unbelievable. Was Laine truly giving him an opportunity to stand on equal footing?
If it were him, he would never allow a second god to possess such power.
“Don’t misunderstand, Cronus, our worlds are probably sowhat different,”
“Although I’m not very clear on the specifics, I can be sure that even if you succeed, your beginning would still be sowhat behind my Spirit Realm.”
Shaking his head gently, Laine saw through Cronus’s thoughts. But just as he had considered, if it would cause significant trouble for himself, he would rather not do it. In fact, it was not just the start, but the upper limit of the new world that constituted the real difference between them.
Years had passed, and Laine gradually discovered that the essence of the Spirit Realm’s temporal nature was not the temporal source power of Cronus, but rather the faint temporal divinity he once possessed. At the ti, he hadn’t paid much heed to it, but now, Laine realized its strength.
It was sothing left behind along with his spiritual body after enduring the baptism of the Chaotic Void, even Chaos had not been able to take it away. This was the foundation of the Spirit Realm, and that temporal source power was secondary.
“I’m not particularly concerned about that. Go on, tell what you’ve found.”
Of course he cared, but Cronus didn’t expect to imdiately create a world stronger than the Spirit Realm. Right now, he was more interested in what he was about to gain.
And what he would have to give in return.
“Do you still rember Mnemosyne?”
Gazing into the distance, Laine felt sowhat sentintal. He hadn’t expected such a twist.
He had wondered which influence was behind the lack of the second wife for Zeus among those missing. He considered the Twin Gods of the Dark Night, Mother Earth, and even the Heavenly Father who still hung in the sky, but he had never anticipated that it would be the unpersoanlzied Abyss.
After all, compared to the others, the power of the Abyss was stronger, and its isolation from destiny naturally more effective.
“Mnemosyne? Thousands of years ago, before the siege on the stars, I even ntioned her to Rhea,”
His expression changed slightly, and Cronus also rembered his sister.
“Not long after I had overthrown my father, due to the matters of the mory godhood, she harbored resentnt towards you. Rumors said that she sought out Lady Night first but was turned away, and then she lingered at the gate of the Abyss for a long ti, ultimately daring not to step inside.”
“Later,” it was said that she was taught a lesson by Atlas, the God of Strength, who had not long been born, and then she vanished without a trace.”
Reflecting on the past, Cronus still rembered that at that ti, Rhea had stood by his side without hesitation.
Perhaps a goddess who loves her children is a good wife and a good mother, but she is not a good Queen of Gods. However, the forr Divine King didn’t resent her. In any case, let the relationship between them be reduced to dust along with the “death” of Cronus.
Thereafter, she was revered on the new Mount Olympus, while he beca the new king in the Bottomless Abyss.
“So you’re saying that Mnemosyne eventually made up her mind after that and entered into Tartarus…”
“But didn’t you say before that it’s difficult to be transford by the power of the Abyss when one has both Godhood and a Divine Body? That’s why you asked to cleanse myself of all past events?”
Detecting an issue, Cronus couldn’t help but speak up and question.
“It is difficult, which is why it took her nearly ten thousand years and she still hasn’t completed the process. This is all based on the premise that Mnemosyne only had Weak Divine Power. Otherwise, even several epochs might not be enough to wash away the imprints of the current world on her.”
Faced with Cronus’s interrogation, Laine explained patiently.
“I don’t know how she entered, nor how she reached the core of the Abyss, but there is no doubt that she is being transford.”
“Your sister willingly gave up her identity as a Titan Goddess of the present world, choosing instead to beco part of the Abyss. Her Godhood of ‘Language’ and ‘Innate Script’ was stripped away over tens of thousands of years, and now she has almost completely beco part of the Abyss. When she awakens, she will be the first Primordial Deity born of the Abyss. She will completely shed her forr weakness, of course, and will also bear so responsibilities.”
So responsibilities, Laine could guess what kind of obligations a goddess might have.
“I see… then you might be in trouble.”
Having accepted Laine’s explanation, Cronus couldn’t help but turn and jest:
“She has always been ‘unforgettable’ to you.”
“Let her co. If she were a male deity, that would indeed be troubleso, for she would take the path I had originally envisaged for you. Regrettably, she is a goddess.”
“Although I don’t know why, even the chaotic Abyss does not recognize a female deity to assu the highest authority.”
Not that he cared much, for Laine of the present no longer regarded any being without Great Divine Power. In the future, there’s a saying in The East, ‘Below the sage, all are ants,’ and Chaos World was much the sa.
Those who haven’t reached this step are re pawns.
As for what this has to do with male and female deities, it goes back to the thod Laine initially used to persuade Cronus.
For the forr Divine King, if he couldn’t continue to possess Divine Authority and power, he might as well sleep eternally like the Heavenly Father. Therefore, to borrow the Divine Authority of Cronus, and for the remnant temporal Origin, as well as for the sake of the impending perfection, Laine also went to great lengths to consider for him.
The so-called Divine Authority is not like Godhood, but an additional authority granted by the laws of the current world.
Thus, it rises and falls with the changes in the might of the Divine King and grows stronger with events like ‘legislation’ and ‘creation of life’ under his rule, for it is indeed an embodint of the world’s favor.
