Myth: The Spiritual Dominator

"Are we really going to do this?"

While the three of Ryan were busy with their own thoughts, Momon was a little nervous in the temple dedicated to Hestia, the goddess of fire and guardianship.

Even though the Creator was standing beside him, and even though he was reluctant to part with the tribute he was about to offer, he still felt uneasy.

After all, Prometheus had told them more than once in the past how they shook the mountains and turned back the rivers and seas in the last era when the gods were still walking on the earth.

"Don't worry, Momon. Her Highness Hestia is one of the kindest goddesses among the gods. Even if she finds something wrong, she will only warn me first instead of punishing you directly."

Standing at the door of the temple, the tall Prometheus comforted everyone around him.

He has never tried it before, and his own strength is not enough. Therefore, the Illuminati does not know whether a powerful god can detect something wrong across the vast earth just by relying on the meager divinity on the statue. Therefore, until today, he did not Dare to try, and the target is Hestia.

This goddess is brave and fearless in battle, but appears to be approachable in ordinary times. The Illuminati believed that if it were her, even if something was discovered, it could still be undone.

Although this is a bit bullying good people, Prometheus still has to do it for his own creation. He secretly made a decision that if he could succeed this time, he would increase the praise of Hestia among humans and let her gain faith second only to the God King.

"Orson, you should be the first one."

Seeing that the time was almost up, Prometheus no longer hesitated and said to a thin human being.

The Illuminati have an impression of each of their creations, but there are shades of depth. When Orson was created, he was given agility by Epimetheus, and perhaps his blessing took effect. He was also extremely intelligent, so Prometheus often took him with him to teach him.

In fact, the people who followed him on this trip were also the human beings whom the Illuminati valued most. They all had talents far beyond others in terms of wisdom. If the trip was successful, the Illuminati decided that they would be the officiants of each temple.

Prometheus has even thought of a name for them. Those in charge of sacrificing to the gods are called "priests".

"Yes, Your Highness."

Nodding in agreement, Orson felt a little nervous, but somewhat irritated. Deceiving the gods was unthinkable in the past, but he had no real sense of it. After all, apart from occasional blessings, Orson's testimony to the greatness of the gods is only the Creator's narration.

But in Prometheus, he did not see that omnipotent greatness.

"call--"

Taking a deep breath, Orson stepped forward under the gaze of everyone. He took out the sacrifices he had prepared in advance.

That's a cow. Cows can produce milk, cow bones can be used to make soup, beef and butter also have their own uses. Whether now or in the future, this is one of mankind's most valuable assets.

In the past, when humans offered sacrifices, they often offered the best parts of cows to gods and kept the internal organs and bones for themselves. But this time, with the support of the Creator, Orson would not do this again.

Taking out the copper knife, Orson skillfully cut the cow into pieces and then sorted them. One pile is all beef, covered with cowhide; one pile is all beef bones, wrapped in cow suet.

From the outside, the second pile is much larger than the first.

Putting down the knives, Orson placed two piles on the altar used for sacrifices in the temple. The most critical moment had arrived. His heart was beating loudly, but he was a little excited for some reason.

Kneeling on the ground, Orson chanted loudly.

"Immortal of Olympus, Hestia!

Holy Hestia!

I will sing your praises loudly!

O majestic daughter of Cronus!

Holy goddess!

O daughter of the fertile Rhea!

Keeper of the Holy Fire!

That is the noble Hestia, the eldest daughter of Cronus and Rhea!

The longest of the Olympians!

You are always chaste!

You are a glorious and holy flame!

You are the guardian of peace!

Oh!

Glorious goddess!

Listen to my singing!

I and the other carolers will remember you! "

Simple poetry, simple meaning, when the carol came to the end, Orson seemed to feel the invisible gaze coming from the statue.

That was the gaze cast by the goddess with the help of the divinity and faith on the statue. He had felt it more than once in the past.

Suppressing his nervousness, Orson worshiped the gods as usual and prayed for blessings. He told God about the difficulty of his work, but he was still willing to sacrifice everything for God. Finally, he walked up to the altar openly and took away the small pile of beef, leaving the big one.

Time passed minute by minute, and until Prometheus signaled the next person to come forward to sacrifice, nothing happened.

"It seems the result was successful!"

"My guess is correct. The gods are aware of everything, but it is impossible for them to go to the mortal world to check it in person, so naturally they will make some omissions."

When it was all over, the Illuminati was all smiles. He looked at the humans surrounding him and said happily:

"Then let's follow today's process from now on. Each of you will be in charge of a temple. Momon, Orson, and the God King's temple are the most important, so the two of you will be in charge there together."

"From now on, the sacrifices will be made by you, rather than by each person who comes to offer sacrifices. In this way, the matter will not spread, and our goal will be achieved."

"But you have to remember that the sacrifices to the gods can be kept, but the faith in the gods cannot be lacking. So afterwards you have to return these sacrifices to everyone under other names, but don't let them know."

"Of course, Your Highness, how dare we really blaspheme."

With an excited look on his face, Orson glanced at his subsequent partner, but felt a little emotional in his heart.

It turns out that the gods on Mount Olympus are not that great, and they cannot distinguish even the things that are right in front of them.

But yes, the Creator once said that human beings are the leader of all things and the closest living beings to God in the world. Perhaps the difference between gods and humans lies only in power and life.

He had seen power, but he could not understand life. Prometheus once told humans about death, but Orson, who was physically strong, felt no fear at all.

"That's it, think about it for yourselves, I'm going back now."

I don't know what the human being in front of me is thinking, but Prometheus is still in a good mood.

Epimetheus had advised him before he came here. The other party believed that deceiving the gods was undesirable, but the Illuminati scorned it.

If he was as stupid as his brother, there might indeed be mistakes, but how could he act recklessly? Try it first in the temple of Hestia, and then promote it one by one. This is the wisdom of the Illuminati.

And all of this came from his instructions, and ordinary humans had no idea about it. Even if it is exposed, it has nothing to do with the bronze human being.

Thinking of this, Prometheus couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Many times, he also hopes that his dull brother can learn something, but unfortunately, this may not be possible.

After all, gods are like this. They are what they are born with. Unless there is a big change the day after tomorrow, it is basically difficult to change.
