"Aegler? I see."
After carefully considering the deities in the divine realm, there were many with similar names, but there was no being named Aegler.
This was normal. After all, before sensing the power of the sky, Ouranos didn't know someone like Hyacine existed in the world...
But now, He knew.
Organizing his thoughts, Ouranos tried to make his expression as gentle as possible. After all, these two humans before him had some connection to him, and might even be...
"So, children, you should know where the power in your bodies originates from, right?"
"...It's the sky, and it's very similar to your power."
Since Ouranos could tell the source of Hyacine and Barbara's power from its nature, the reverse was also true.
"Correct, the source of the power in your bodies is indeed the sky, and I... am the God of the Sky."
In that instant, Ouranos released his divine pressure. The intense pressure immediately swept across the entire altar, even causing the bricks within the altar to vibrate.
In the DanMachi World, once a deity uses divine power, they are deported back to the heavens, but divine pressure is not restricted. After all, it is a means of self-protection for deities when they encounter danger and can also be used for deterrence.
If the target were a mortal, they would surely be scared motionless by this divine pressure, their whole body trembling.
But this time, the situation was a bit different.
Because the deity releasing the divine pressure was Ouranos, and the people feeling it were Hyacine and Barbara.
"Is this divine pressure?"
"It truly is a terrifying power. No wonder mortals lose the courage to fight after feeling divine pressure."
In the setting of DanMachi, deities are omniscient and omnipotent, possessing terrifying power. Even if it's just divine pressure, it is extremely fearsome for the humans of the lower world.
Even Hyacine and Barbara could feel an unprecedented majesty from Ouranos's divine pressure.
But besides majesty, what they felt more was... an indescribable sense of closeness?
"As I thought, you really are..."
Seeing Hyacine and Barbara completely unaffected by his divine pressure, Ouranos let out a sigh of admiration, his eyes becoming misty as if recalling the distant past.
From the moment they met until he released his divine pressure just now, Ouranos had been confirming one thing: whether Hyacine and Barbara possessed Their power.
The "Them" here referred to none other than the twelve Titans who had close ties with Ouranos. And the final result was as expected: the two girls indeed possessed power belonging to the Titans.
However, this Titan power had slight differences from what Ouranos knew... it seemed to be mixed with other things?
But it didn't matter!
As long as it was confirmed they were Titans, the identity of these two girls would not change; they were "Children of God" belonging to Ouranos's lineage.
"Come here, children, and I will tell you everything..."
Ouranos could not leave the altar, so he intended for these two human children to come before him so he could inform them of the true situation...
—
In the DanMachi World, gods are born from heaven and earth, similar to conceptual existences. Despite possessing unprecedentedly powerful strength, they cannot produce offspring with any creature, even if the other party is also a god.
Therefore, even if those Male Gods spent all day wandering the Pleasure Quarter, there wouldn't be a situation where "demigods are everywhere and children of god are as common as dogs."
And those deities who have close relationships in mythology would be completely different in DanMachi.
Take Odin and Thor for example; they are father and son in Norse mythology, but in the DanMachi World, it's different—they might even be brothers. But even without the father-son relationship, Odin and Thor still get along better than many other deities.
