I was a priest in the city-state era

Chapter 530 Lioness Only Loves Mighty Lions

"you--"

Hearing Roy bluntly stated his goal, Sekhmet couldn't help but widen his eyes and said.

"Where do you have the confidence to think that you can be my husband?"

"Because I am the emperor of the Athenian Empire."

Roy said confidently.

"Sekhmet! As long as you are willing to marry me, I will let you have more territories. If you don't want to share the authority to rule Egypt with me, I will consider changing to a goddess who is willing to marry me and become the queen of the gods in Egypt. I believe that the goddess Naite, the goddess Basteto, the goddess Nehbet, and the goddess Wajit will all be very interested in replacing you."

"Is this threatening me?"

Sekhmet questioned, frowning.

"You treat me like this, don't you worry that all the goddesses will unite against you?"

"If you—the many goddesses of the Athens Empire can unite, of course I dare not threaten you like this, but I know that you are absolutely impossible to unite as one. Because you goddesses are not equal to each other, those goddesses with weak status and strength will never support those goddesses with strong status and strength. As long as I drive you off the throne, other goddesses will carve up your territory and power, so not only will they not help you, but they will seize the opportunity to attack you. Conquer the Egyptian region by force, and truly turn the Egyptian region into the territory of the Athenian Empire."

Don't suffer from scarcity but from inequality——

This statement applies not only to humans, but also to gods.

Some deities have narrow territories and weak powers, while others have huge territories and powerful powers.

Those weak gods will really support the powerful gods, willing to sacrifice their own interests for the benefit of the powerful gods?
The answer is of course no.

Sekhmet also understands that she wants to fight Roy, and in the end, not only will she fight alone, but behind Roy there will be a goddess who wants to replace her.

"Don't you think it's despicable? You actually took advantage of the conflict of interests between our goddesses to make me submit to you—"

Sehmet said through gritted teeth.

"Just like a lioness will only accept a strong male lion, as a lion goddess, I will only marry a husband who is stronger than me. If you want to be my husband, then use your strength to defeat me."

Defeat Sekhmet -

Roy said with a smile.

"Goddess Sekhmet, I don't have the strength to defeat you yet. Let's make an agreement now. Before I can defeat you, I will not force you to marry me in any way. But I become stronger than you. After I can defeat you with strength, you must marry me unconditionally. Together, we will become the highest god and goddess in Egypt."

Sehmet hesitated for a while, then finally nodded.

"Okay! Just do as you said. When you defeat me with strength, I will agree to marry you."

"Dear Sekhmet, I will not keep you waiting too long."

After reaching an agreement with Roy, Sekhmet's figure disappeared from the throne room immediately.

Roy turned to Nafel and said.

"Dear Nafir, your goddess Sekhmet has agreed to marry me. As long as I can defeat Sekhmet with my strength in the future, Sekhmet will become my wife."

Looking at the proud expression on Roy's face, Nafier complained expressionlessly.

"Are you really not worried that the goddesses will unite against you? I don't think the wise goddesses will be stupid enough to be defeated by you one by one."

"Do you know how many goddesses there are in the Athens Empire, and how are these goddesses related to each other?"

Roy said with a smile.

"Alina, the goddess of the sun from the Caucasus region, has a blood feud with the goddess of the earth in Asia Minor Peninsula that has lasted for hundreds of years. If someone can resolve the blood feud between them and let them join hands to deal with me, I am willing to surrender directly."

The bloody feud between Alina, the sun goddess, and the earth goddess is just the most glaring example of the impossibility of these goddesses joining forces.

Among the other goddesses, there are also large and small hatreds and competitions for interests.

Let these goddesses unite against Roy—

It sounds simple, but in fact it is impossible to realize it.

I'm afraid these goddesses would rather marry Roy than let go of their blood feud and become allies with their former enemies.

After all, there is no benefit in joining forces with the enemy.

Marrying Loy - you can get a huge territory as a dowry, enhancing your identity and authority.

Nafiel was left speechless by what Roy said, because she really didn't understand the relationship between the many goddesses of the Athens Empire.

Roy continued.

"Dear Nafer! It seems that you are full of complaints against me. I need to improve our husband and wife relationship."

After speaking, Roy hugged Sekhmet with the princess, and then walked to her queen's bedroom.

Roy wanted to improve the relationship with Nafel, of course not with sweet words.

Because thousands of sweet words are not as good as sleeping with Nafiel directly.

Hattusha City.

The city was originally the capital of the Hittite Kingdom.

The Hittite Kingdom became the Hittite region of the Athens Empire, and Hattusha City also changed from the capital of the Hittite Kingdom to the ruling center of the Hittite region.

Hittite Palace.

Hatpurna was sitting on a throne in the hall, receiving the chiefs of various tribes in the Caucasus.

King Colchis, King Sasper, King Dali, and King Kopala stood in the center of the hall respectfully, as if they were meeting the queen's subjects.

"Leaders, I want to bring the Caucasus region into my rule, you all have no objections!"

Hearing Hartpurna's inquiry, King Colchis said immediately.

"Great Queen Hartpurna, you are the Highest Priestess of the Sun Goddess, and we the Colchis would like you to rule over us."

After King Colchis took the lead, King Sasbel, King Dali, and King Kopala also expressed their willingness to let Hartpurna become their queen to rule them.

They are willing to be ruled by Hatpurna not only because the Hittite army using iron weapons has already entered the Caucasus, but also because the Hittites also lived in the Caucasus in the past, and they are their own people in their eyes.

Hartpurna said with a satisfied smile.

"You all made a wise choice! Now the Hittite region and the Caucasus region are ruled by me. I hope you will allow Caucasus people to come and go to the Hittite region in large numbers, so that the Hittite people know that we are not the only Hittites, and not only the Hittite region worships the sun goddess."

After Hartpurna finished speaking, Roy's voice sounded abruptly.

"The goddess Sekhmet in Egypt is also the goddess of the sun. I think you can also let the Egyptians come and go to the Hittite region in large numbers, so that the Hatti people know that Egypt also worships the sun goddess Sekhmet."

The next moment!

Roy's figure appeared in the hall.

Seeing Roy, King Colchis, King Sasper, King Dali, and King Kopala immediately saluted respectfully.

"The great Phaethon!"

"You guys are making a mistake!"

Roy explained with a smile.

"In the territory of the Athens Empire, my identity is the emperor of the Athens Empire, so you should call me His Majesty the Emperor."

Then, Roy spoke to Hartpurna on the throne.

"Dear Hartpurna, I'm back."
