I was a priest in the city-state era

Chapter 527 The Athenian Emperor Has Returned

Witnessing the miracles performed by Roy, Semiramis had to believe that Roy was indeed no longer human.

"Since you have become a god, can you still be with us humans?"

"of course can!"

Roy explained with a smile.

"I am now a man-god between humans and gods, which is very different from real gods. Not only can I be with you, but I can also continue to be the emperor of the Athens Empire."

Semiramis couldn't help saying with his eyes brightened.

"Then the child I will have with you now will be a demigod with divine power at birth?"

"I also want to know the answer to this question. It seems that we should practice it."

After speaking, Roy picked up Semiramis in the princess's arms and walked towards her queen's bedroom.

the next day.

Roy, who takes Semiramis' body and mind as his own, plays the role of a caring husband.

While enjoying breakfast with Semiramis, Roy finally made his request.

"Dear Semiramis, I have an important task for you - I hope you can worship me as the sun god Phaethon in the Sumerian area, so that I can be worshiped by the Sumerians."

Hearing Roy's request, Semiramis said with a solemn expression.

"Honey, are you going to compete with Goddess Inanna for the Sumerian region?"

Roy immediately shook his head and said.

"The goddess Inanna is the goddess of Venus, and I am the sun god. The Sumerians worshiped the sun god Phaethon, and it will not have much influence on the goddess Inanna. I will first let you and Andromeda in your The reason why the territory enshrines the sun god Phaethon is because in your territory, the original sun gods have been driven away by me, and goddesses Aphrodite and Inanna are not sun goddesses."

Semiramis was persuaded by Roy's words, nodded and said.

"Honey! Larsa City was originally a city guarded by the sun god Utu. I will first enshrine you in Larsa City and make you the sun god who guards Larsa City. If Goddess Inanna objects—"

"If Inanna objects, I will negotiate with her personally."

After completing the layout in the Mesopotamia, Roy did not go to the Egyptian and Hittite regions.

Because there is really no sun god in Mesopotamia.

The Egyptian region really had the sun goddess Sekhmet, and the Hittite region really had the sun goddess Alina.

If Roy wants to face-mount output, it will definitely arouse strong opposition from Sekhmet and Alina.

So Roy's plan is to let the area without the sun god worship the sun god Phaethon first.

When his strength is strong enough to suppress these powerful sun goddesses, then Roy can force these sun goddesses to accept Roy to be enshrined with them.

Athens city.

Even if the emperor of the Athenian Empire died, the heart of the Athenian Empire still continued to prosper in the past.

1599 BC.

December.

A rare cold snap hit and covered the city with snowflakes.

The Athenians, who are busy in the cold wind and winter snow, are longing for the heat of the sun to dispel the severe cold.

boom--

A group of raging platinum flames suddenly appeared above the city of Athens.

"People of Athens, your emperor has returned from the dead."

Accompanied by the majestic announcement, Roy tried his best to stimulate his divine power, letting his body bloom with infinite light and heat to dispel the cold wind and melt the ice and snow.

The Athenians who raised their heads upon hearing Roy's announcement all saw a scene they would never forget—a second sun appeared in the sky.

The heat of the second sun—Loy dispelled the cold wind, melted the ice and snow, and made the people of Athens feel the warmth of the sun again.

Acropolis.

royal palace.

Procne and Philomela also heard Roy's announcement.

The two ran to the palace courtyard outside, looking at the second sun in the sky suspiciously.

"Sister, that was Brother Loy's voice just now!"

"We can't hear it wrong at the same time. It was indeed brother Roy's voice just now."

Under the eyes of Procne and Philomela, the second sun slowly fell from the sky, and soon landed in the palace courtyard.

When Roy restrained the divine light and flames, Roy's figure appeared in front of Procne and Philomela.

"I am back!"

Seeing Roy with a bright smile, tears rolled down the cheeks of Procne and Philomela in an instant.

"Brother Roy—"

"Honey--"

The two sisters ran to Roy at the same time, and then threw themselves into Roy's arms together.

Roy couldn't hide his excitement and hugged the two of them tightly and said.

"I'm sorry I made you cry again."

Lying in Roy's arms and crying for a while, Philomela said suddenly.

"Brother Roy, you smell like other women."

"Uh--"

Roy explained with a guilty conscience.

"After I was resurrected, I first went to Andromeda and Semiramis, and fulfilled my duty as a husband."

"Didn't brother Roy just come back to life—then why didn't you come to me and my sister first? Could it be that we are not as good as Andromeda and Semiramis in Brother Roy's heart?"

Roy knows that explanations in thousands of words are not more useful than actual actions.

So Roy didn't explain, and directly picked up Procne and Philomela and walked to their bedroom.

the next day.

When the sun rises three poles.

Procne and Philomela have been completely slept by Roy.

Roy came to the palace hall alone to check various materials to understand the current situation of the Athens Empire.

Although after the death of Loy, the Athenian Empire still maintained a superficial unity, but Queen Nafer in the Egyptian region and Queen Hatepna in the Hittite region no longer accepted orders from the city of Athens.

The many queens who ruled other regions may really have no ambitions, or they may be waiting for Nafir and Hartpurna to become the first birds.

The only thing that comforts Roy is that these young widows are all widows for themselves.

"How is this going?"

The voice of the goddess Metis suddenly appeared in the hall.

The next moment!

Metis appeared in the center of the hall in the form of a human girl.

Roy exchanged a glance with the expressionless Metis, and said with a bright smile on his face.

"As you can see, I have been resurrected as the sun god."

After looking at Roy seriously, Metis said with a dissatisfied expression.

"Do you trust other goddesses more than me?"

"Should I trust you the most?"

"What other goddesses can do for you, I can also do for you. With my help, you become a hero god, and I can allow you to become my younger brother."

"But I don't want to be your younger brother and subordinate god."

Roy got up and left the throne, walked up to Metis step by step and said.

"Dear Metis, the first time I saw you, I knew that this is a world where gods really exist, so I had the goal of becoming a god of immortality. I kept using wars to expand the territory of the Athenian Empire. It is to become a god like you. The huge territory conquered by the Athens Empire is the price I use to exchange benefits with other goddesses. I did not choose you because I know that you only want me to be your subordinate god, You don't want me to be a threat to you."
