I was a priest in the city-state era

Chapter 107 The Polydectes Brothers
Even Roy himself didn't expect that Polydectes, the king of Serifos, rushed back at this moment just after he occupied the royal palace of Serifos.

Roy and Aries walked out of the palace and stood on the top of the hill looking at the surrounding sea. They saw ten large ships rushing to the west coast of Serifos Island. Polydectes and Diketes took three After a hundred Serifos soldiers went ashore, they rushed towards the hill where the palace was located.

"My lord priest, I brought my companions here from the port. Although I disobeyed the orders of my lord priest, I hope to accept punishment after the war is over."

Hearing what Aries said, Roy patted him on the shoulder with his left hand and said.

"You did the right thing. I have no reason to punish you. Winning this war is the most important thing now. If we lose this war, there is no point for you to stay in the port. Aries! Now I order you to send your companions Gather together with the soldiers of Eleusis, and I will lead you to defeat the Serifosians."

After Aries gathered fifty teenagers and two hundred Eleusis soldiers, Roy immediately led them down the hill, preparing to face Polydectes' army head-on.

Because the battle was fought on the hill, Serifos soldiers in the palace and Serifos men who lived near the palace might join in the battle, so that the number of Polydectes' soldiers continued to increase.

At the foot of the hill.

Polydectes and Diketes rushed here with their soldiers, seeing that the enemy who invaded Serifos Island was Roy, Polydectes roared angrily while leading the soldiers to charge.

"Loy! Did you hurt my wife and daughter? War is a man's business. Why do you attack innocent women?"

"Though I did take your wife and daughter captive, I did not attack Serifos against them. I attacked Serifos to avenge your brothers, but I did not think of you brothers Haven’t returned to Serifos, let me easily occupy your palace and capture your wives and daughters.”

Roy faced Polydectes while explaining.

Just when Roy and Polydectes rushed together and were about to confront each other, Roy suddenly bypassed Polydectes and pounced on Diketes like a swift cheetah.

Polydectes is also a hero [Enemy of a Hundred Men], although due to old age and frailty, his strength can no longer match the young Roy.

But if the situation turns to Polydectes and Diketes joining hands to besiege Roy, Roy is not fully sure of defeating Polydectes and Diketes with one enemy and two.

So Roy decided to deal with the weaker Diketes first, and then decide the outcome with Polydectes.

Polydectes turned around, saw Roy's thoughts and hurriedly shouted to his younger brother Diketes.

"Diketis! Get behind the soldiers and don't fight Roy."

It's a pity that Polydectes' reminder was a bit late, and Roy was already close to Diketes at this time.

Hearing what his brother Polydectes said, Diketes finally chose not to be a coward between being a coward and confronting Roy head-on.

Because the distance between him and Roy was too close, even if he used the soldiers around him as shields, it would only make them die in vain.

"Young man! Your enemy is Diketes, brother of Polydectes, king of Serifos, and uncle of young hero Perseus!"

While introducing himself, Diketis brandished a bronze spear to attack Roy.

This is completely a blow.

Diketis gave up his defense, and only wanted to stab Roy with the spear in his hand when Roy's spear blade pierced his body.

As long as Roy is injured, his brother Polydectes' chances of defeating Roy will increase by a few points, and his sacrifice will be worth it.

"I'm not interested in remembering your name, because you're neither a king nor a hero."

Roy said while delivering a fatal blow to Diketis.

"If you were Perseus' father, Danae's husband, perhaps I would remember your name."

Puff!
As soon as the words fell, Roy's spear pierced Diketis' heart.

When Diketis heard Roy's words, his mind was shaken for a moment, and he even forgot to attack Roy.

Because Dicetis recalled a certain night when Polydectes left Serifos Island, he and his sister-in-law Danae had a secret that only two people knew.

Perseus—maybe really my son.

Even for one night, Danae is my wife.

Thinking of this, Diketis showed a happy smile on his face, and his body lost its life and fell backwards.

"Diketis—"

Seeing that Diketes was killed by Roy, Polydectes widened his eyes angrily, and rushed towards Roy like a sad lion.

Roy turned around, looked at Polydectes' angry look and smiled.

"Didn't someone tell you that instead of making you stronger, hatred and anger will go to your head and make you weaker?"

"Kill you! I will kill you to avenge Diketis!"

Polydectes roared angrily, rushed to Roy and delivered a fatal blow without thinking about himself.

Roy didn't want to die with Polydectes.

Judging that Polydectes could not be killed without injury, Roy avoided Polydectes' attack while waiting for Polydectes to reveal his flaws.

In order to shake Polydectes' mind, Roy also teased Polydectes.

"Polydectes, have you ever thought of a possibility? Perhaps Perseus is not your son, but the son of your brother Diketes and Danae. If I hadn't killed Diketes Tis, one day in the future Dicetis and Perseus will join forces to kill you, and then Dicetis will become the new king of Serifos."

Perseus was the son of Dicetis—

Many people have indeed said that Diketes and Perseus looked like father and son.

But Polydectes never thought that his younger brother Diketes and his wife Danae would betray him.

Now that Diketes is dead, Roy still uses such words to shake himself, Polydectes said angrily.

"You vile young man, don't tarnish the honor of my brother and wife. I trust that Diketes and Danae will not betray me, even if Perseus is really the son of Diketes, he and I There is no difference between my own son, because Diketes and I are brothers of the same father and mother."

"Then you are really a good brother and husband! It's a pity that Diketis doesn't think so. He really wants to kill you and become Danae's husband."

Polydectes was already dazzled by hatred and anger, but when he heard Roy's words, his mind was finally shaken.

Roy was keenly aware of Polydectes' flaws, and delivered a fatal blow to Polydectes without hesitation.

puff-

As Roy's spear blade pierced Polydectes' body, Polydectes' eyes widened with an expression of unwillingness.

Roy managed to slay a hero king without harming him.
