Chapter 129: The Gods Have Disappeared?

Greece, upon the Sea of Okeanos, under a dark sky heavy with dense clouds.

An old, worn boat rocked side to side amidst the rolling waves, as an elderly fisherman in a linen shirt tightly clenched his frozen stiff fingers, struggling to pull in the fishing net he had cast.

As soon as the soaking wet net was dragged into the cabin, a skinny little girl carrying a small bucket excitedly rushed forward to search around.

However, the catch was meager; besides a few small fish that looked pitiful, there was nothing but rotten seaweed and a few pieces of broken wood.

Holding the bucket, which was light in weight, the girl pursed her dry, cracked lips, utterly disappointed.

"Don't worry, the next catch will definitely be better."

The old man comforted his granddaughter with a gentle voice before casting the net again.

But after several attempts, the fishing net brought up nothing substantial.

Now, not only the little girl but also the old man couldn't help feeling a bit impatient.
