Chapter 48: Fire from the Sky

```

Kneeling in front of the temple, he prayed silently for a long time before Cohen stood up.

He looked at the infant girl before him and lifted up the swaddling clothes that enveloped her. She was created by the divine power of Leto, the Goddess of Nursery, the sister of Asteria.

Compared to other gods, Leto and the Goddess of Meteor did show a trace of pity for Hecate, but that was all.

Out of fear for the laws of the current world, both goddesses also regarded her as a calamity.

Just as in Laine's previous life, mortals would fear fire, storms, and the blazing sun, though actually, these elements had no consciousness of their own. Similarly, the gods of Chaos also felt fear, even though the will that caused their fear had never cast even a fleeting 'gaze' upon Hecate.

Fear stems from the unknown. And since the inception of Chaos, besides Laine, who opened the Spirit Realm, only the Primordial Gods had some deep understanding of the logic of the current world's operation.
