Apollo left Olympus and walked across the vast land.
This mythological world was completely different from the Greek world on Earth.
The land was extremely vast, and the ocean surrounded the land. There were many cities on the land, but most of them were uninhabited wilderness.
The end of the world was visible, and the gods could find the limits of the earth and the edge of the ocean.
Breathing in the fresh air of the vast land, he opened a book on the history of the gods that he borrowed from Athena.
It was a very ancient book. It was said that the first edition was written before the establishment of the first generation of the Divine Court. Later, someone slowly added subsequent content.
He flipped to the first page." The first to be born was Chaos." He " appeared in the void, carrying darkness and night, bringing the first ray of light.”
"Next is the Gaia of the Earth. The vast earth gives birth to the vast sky, the continuous mountains, and the endless ocean.”
" In the depths of the earth, the darkest Tartarus appeared.'He' is the source of all fear, the darkest place in the universe.”
" Of the five original gods, Chaos Chaos was the first to be born, Earth Mother Gaia was the second, and Abyss Tartarus was the third. These three do not have any bloodline or relationship between Creator and Creator, only the order of their birth. As for the last two, the Evernight Goddess Nyx and the Dark God Erebus, they were born from Chaos.”Apollo muttered as he looked at the book in his hand.
This was very consistent with the records of the divine book on Earth in his previous life.
Although many people on the Internet said that Chaos Chaos was the creator of the Greek god system, he single-handedly created Mother Gaia, Abyss Tartarus, and other gods.
However, there was no such thing in mainstream Greek mythology. Chaos was only born before the earth and the abyss. There was no creator relationship between the three.
Only darkness and darkness were born from chaos.
" However, Chaos Chaos is indeed the most mysterious and powerful Primordial God. The two gods that 'He' gave birth to have reached the Primordial Realm, while the sky, mountains, and oceans that Gaia gave birth to are slightly inferior.”
" Mother Earth, the Lord of the Abyss, the Evernight Goddess, and the God of Darkness were still active in the primitive era before the first generation of the Divine Court was established. They only gradually retired later on.”
" But since the beginning of creation, Chaos, who has always been the head of the original gods, has never shown any signs.”
" Perhaps, it's not that 'He' never appeared, but that the gods who came later were unable to understand anything about 'Him.”
Apollo whispered.
Chaos Chaos was the first god at the beginning of creation, the oldest and most powerful existence. It was too mysterious.
No matter how powerful and imposing the other four original gods were, they all had their own traces.
Except for his name, he didn't leave anything behind.
There wasn't even a legend.
Walking on the ground, he continued reading the book in his hand." The earth gave birth to the sky, mountains, and oceans. The sky completely enveloped the earth, and they connected with each other, giving birth to twelve children, including celestial bodies, light, oceans, and rivers. The youngest one used a sickle to cut the connection between the sky and the earth.”
"Uh, this can also be said to be 'uprooted.' However, it's not so dirty to write it like this, and it'll save the gods some face.”
" The combination of darkness and night gave birth to Atrel in space and Herrera in day. After that, night alone gave birth to Thanatos in death, Shupnus in sleep, and Eris in no way…Eh, why is the first line blank?”
Apollo stared at the page in front of him and frowned.
There was a name missing from the list of children that the Evernight Goddess Nyx had given birth to alone.
That name seemed to have been erased by some kind of power.
"The names are arranged according to the time of birth. This blank line is the first one, which means that he is the eldest son or daughter of Goddess Nyx.”
"The second-ranked gods were all born during the reign of the first generation of the Godly King. In that case, the First Born should have been born during the previous barbaric era.”
Apollo guessed.
Suddenly, he heard a loud noise coming from ahead.
……
"Father, I can't go to Athens, so I brought you reinforcements.”
Looking at the ugly beast before her, Tekasha sobbed, her beautiful face full of despair.
Not too long ago, she was still the noble princess of Delph, enjoying her father's love and the love of her people.
But a terrible monster attacked her city.
Delph was only a small city-state. There were no powerful heroes with the bloodline of the gods, so they could only form an army to resist.
How could the strength of a mortal be comparable to a monster that could destroy the world?
The city wall was quickly breached.
Her father had asked her to bring people to ask for help.
The brightest pearl of Greece, the civilized city of Athens that believed in the goddess Athena, sent a powerful hero to help Delph.
But now, he could no longer complete this mission.
"Princess, leave quickly!"
The maid who had taken care of her since she was young shouted and pushed her away.
Puff!
A monster with three heads and spikes smashed the maid's head with its tail.
The bloody scene made Tekasha tremble. She hated herself for being weak and powerless.
" Gods, please save us. I'm willing to sacrifice myself to you and serve you in the temple for the rest of my life…"
Gazing at the ferocious beast claws that gradually covered the sky, Tesasha fell to the ground and prayed in despair.
She actually didn't have much hope.
As a highly educated member of the royal family, she knew the temper of the gods all too well.
The word 'pity' would not appear on them.
"Believe in the power of the gods, but don't believe in their kindness.”This was what her teacher had told her.
But at this moment, what else could she do besides pray?
" Gods, even if you have the slightest bit of mercy, please descend upon me and save the people of Delph…"
Tekasha's bright eyes were wide open as she watched the monster's claws land on her head.
She would never close her eyes.
She wanted to see if the gods had really given up on all living beings on the earth and allowed mortals to be trampled on.
" As expected, no god will save us…"
At the last moment, the scales of the monster's giant claws were clearly visible, and a disgusting stench entered his nose.
The expected miracle still did not appear.
She closed her eyes.
At this moment, a golden light appeared.
A brilliant divine light enveloped the ugly monster and turned it into ashes in the blink of an eye.
"Eh, I've already arrived in Hell?”After a long time, she opened her eyes in confusion.
What greeted his eyes was a dazzling light.
There was also a handsome and elegant young man bathed in the light.
"Mortal, are you praying to me?”
P.S. At present, the most mainstream Greek mythology is the theogony of Hesios. This book mainly uses this, with some other versions added.
In the theological records, Chaos, Gaia, and Tartarus were all born from nothingness. It was not Chaos who created everything, then the earth and the abyss. This was misunderstood by many people.
I did a lot of research and found that many of the circulating books also made it seem like Kaos was a creator-like god.
This was related to translation. The original Greek mythology did not have such a saying.
Take the famous story of Cronus seizing the throne and using a sickle to do something to Uranus. Actually, in other words, it could also be interpreted as dividing the sky and the earth, similar to the meaning of 'cutting off the earth and connecting the heavens'.
In Greek, the earth and Gaia were the same word, and the sky and Uranus were also the same word. They could be personified gods or heaven and earth themselves.
