And the Titans were gods who had an extraordinary relationship with Ouranos and belonged to the same lineage.
Hyacine and Barbara did indeed have the power of gods—that was true—but they were definitely not descendants of gods, because deities have no offspring.
In that case, what exactly was a so-called "Child of God"?
Naturally, it was a person who had received a god's grace!
But this kind of grace was not the same as the world's mainstream "divine protection"; it was something much higher...
As everyone knows, deities can use their divine blood to carve divine protection onto a mortal's back, granting them greater power and more possibilities.
But that was only the most basic of basics. After all, in this era, deities cannot use divine power in the lower world and can only provide something as low-level as "divine protection."
So what was a higher-level grace?
One only had to look at Hyacine and Barbara.
They had never received "divine protection," yet they possessed such powerful strength, even easily defeating the Level 3 Hyacinthus...
Simply because they possessed a higher-level "grace" that completely crushed the world's mainstream divine protection.
In a sense, this could no longer be called "grace"; it could be perfectly described by the word "favor."
Yes, Hyacine and Barbara were people favored by gods; they even possessed the potential to become gods!
For example, between a chicken raised by an old man and the old man's own grandson, who is more important?
Need you even ask?
Try touching my grandson and see what happens.
Wouldn't I have to pluck your feathers and make chicken soup to nourish my grandson?
Hyacinthus of the Apollo Familia, and everyone in the world who had received divine protection, were that chicken.
And Hyacine and Barbara... were the biological granddaughters!
"Divine Favor" was not just a saying; it required a deity to sacrifice everything, risking being deported, annihilated, or forgotten, in order to create a "Child of God."
At close range, Ouranos completely saw the essence of the two girls' power, and only then did he feel completely at ease.
Hyacine was a pure "Child of God" of the sky lineage, while Barbara was a bit different; although the power in her body was somewhat chaotic, she barely counted as a "Child of God."
"To put it bluntly, gods reside within your bodies, but you are essentially human."
"Not only can you use powerful strength belonging to gods at any time—with power rivaling top Adventurers—but you also won't trigger the divine power deportation mechanism."
"These are the perfect children!"
For a thousand years, Ouranos had remained in the altar praying to the Dungeon, suppressing the Dungeon's monsters while saving more children.
In this dark altar with only faint firelight, this great god almost never smiled, only constantly praying to the Dungeon while handling troublesome matters within the city.
Today, after seeing two "Children of God" appear before his eyes, Ouranos finally showed a smile...
Perhaps they were the hope for saving the lower world?
Although he didn't know which Titans had made the sacrifice, Ouranos was sincerely grateful to them for allowing these two children to be born.
"Children, remember this."
"You are both gods and humans."
"But more often than not, you possess the identity of humans."
"As long as you don't forget that, I will always support you!"
