Chapter 281: Rumors Told by Boreas, the God of the North Wind
"We were guarding very closely, and we didn't see Prometheus coming to steal the fire. How did he get the fire?"
Athena wondered.
Apollo, the god of light, who was sitting on the throne of the Twelve Gods not far away, quickly agreed, "Athena is right, we didn't even see Prometheus coming to steal the fire, Zeus, this matter has nothing to do with us!"
Listening to their explanations, Zeus frowned and said, "Then tell me, what's going on?"
He pointed at the table in front of the gods, and a picture was reflected. It was a picture of humans singing and dancing around a fire on the dark earth, laughing and dancing.
The more he looked, the rage in Zeus' eyes grew.
Uh……
The goddess of wisdom Athena and the god of light Apollo looked at each other and were both a little embarrassed.
The facts were right before their eyes, and it seemed that no matter how they explained, it was useless.
Maybe Prometheus had used some method to secretly obtain fire under their supervision?
The God of Light Apollo flicked his long golden hair, his handsome face full of seriousness, and said, "Zeus, leave this matter to me, I will definitely figure it all out!"
Hearing Him say this, Zeus' expression eased a little. After all, he was his son and one of the twelve gods, so he gave Him time to investigate.
Apparently, Apollo and Athena were also unaware of the situation?
what happened?
At this moment, not only him, but also the main gods beside him, such as Queen of Heaven Hera, God of Fire Hephaestus, etc., were full of doubts.
It is unclear whether Athena and the others neglected their duties, or whether Prometheus used some unknown means to deceive them.
"I am coming too!"
Athena stood up from her seat.
Under the gaze of Zeus and other gods, the two gods flew towards the land under Mount Olympus.
I think this matter will soon have a result.
……
In the dark night.
The goddess of wisdom Athena and the god of light Apollo were flying in the air, with the wind whistling in their ears.
Just when they were about to fly quietly to the human gathering place, they sensed something and looked to the side.
Boreas, who had white wings on his back and a beard and was very strong, appeared and looked at them with curiosity.
He asked, "Mighty God of Light Apollo and Goddess of Wisdom Athena, why did you come down from Mount Olympus? What's the matter?"
"Boreas, the god of the north wind?" Apollo, the god of light, was surprised for a moment, then explained, "The fire from the sky was stolen under our watch. We came to the earth to check the situation under the order of Zeus."
Hearing this, Boreas' eyes showed surprise, "You are talking about this matter, come to think of it, I may know something."
what? !
There was a flash of surprise in the eyes of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, and Apollo, the god of light.
Boreas narrated slowly, "Some time ago, in a human gathering place, I heard a rumor that a demigod child with the ability to predict the future appeared on earth recently."
"This demigod child predicted that Prometheus would anger Zeus, the king of the gods. He even predicted that if Prometheus needed anything he could go to him and he would help."
"This happened before Prometheus stole fire..."
Boreas guessed, "Maybe the fire that appeared on the earth is related to this demigod child?" Hearing the words of the God of the North Wind, the goddess of wisdom Athena and the god of light Apollo both showed surprise in their eyes.
Demigod child?
prophecy?
Even predicted things about Prometheus, Zeus, the king of gods, and the other gods?
"This is absolutely impossible!" Apollo, the God of Light, shook his head repeatedly.
He is not only the God of Light, but also possesses the ability to predict the future, so He is well aware of the rigor and difficulty of prophecy.
It is not difficult to predict for mortals, but it is very difficult to predict anything related to gods.
Prometheus was valued so much by Zeus and other gods because he could predict the affairs of the gods!
However, at this moment, the God of the North Wind in front of him actually told him that there was a demigod, a child at that, who could predict things about the King of Gods and the gods. Was he sure he was not joking?
Athena, the goddess of wisdom next to her, didn't really believe it either.
Boreas, the god of the north wind, said with a smile, "I don't believe it either, so I said it was just a rumor. The specific situation will depend on you two Lord Gods to investigate in person."
"I have something to do, so I'll leave first. Goodbye, beautiful goddess Athena, handsome prince Apollo."
Boreas moved and left here with the north wind.
Glancing at the god of light Apollo, the goddess of wisdom Athena said, "Let's go and investigate the situation ourselves."
Soon, they came to the human gathering place, hiding in the dark and listening to the conversations of humans.
At this moment, there were some people gathered around the fire talking.
"What do you think? Did other gods help Prometheus steal fire, or did Prometheus steal it himself?"
As soon as the words fell, someone answered immediately.
"The god Prometheus said it himself that he did not steal the fire. Even if the great king of the gods Zeus knew about it, he would not be able to punish him."
"Since Prometheus didn't steal the fire, then in my opinion, it must have been the son of the god who was rumored to have predicted the current development of events a long time ago who helped Prometheus obtain the fire!"
"Isn't this just a legend? Only the gods Prometheus and Epimetheus know the details."
"But Prometheus and Epimetheus won't say anything, so we can only guess..."
secretly.
Listening to what the humans said, the goddess of wisdom Athena and the god of light Apollo showed surprise in their eyes.
"Even if Zeus knew, there would be no way to punish him?" Apollo, the god of light, asked in surprise, "Did Prometheus say such a thing?"
"It seems that things are more mysterious than I thought before..."
Touching his chin, his blue eyes were filled with curiosity.
"Don't these humans know the situation..." The goddess of wisdom Athena pondered for a moment.
He said, "It seems that if we want to know exactly what happened, we can only learn it from Prometheus and Epimetheus."
"Athena, what are you going to do?" The god of light Apollo's eyes were full of curiosity. "Prometheus and Epimetheus won't tell us what happened."
"Just watch." Athena, the goddess of wisdom, smiled.
After she finished speaking, in front of the astonished gaze of Apollo, the god of light, Athena's body shape changed and she transformed into an ordinary male human.
