I was a priest in the city-state era

Chapter 95 The Doubt of the Goddess Metis

Is this really Procne?
Looking at Procne's expectant eyes, Roy couldn't help but feel puzzled.

In Roy's impression, Procne's education gave her a shy and reserved character, so Procne would not be so bold as to stay in the same room with Roy alone at night, let alone ask Roy to She proposes.

I'm afraid it was Aphrodite's blessing [charm enhancement] that affected Procne, and she did this kind of thing that was different from usual.

"Procne, I think you need to calm down now."

"Brother Roy thinks I'm just impulsive?"

Procne said with a gentle sweet smile.

"Actually, I have always had a crush on you. It was only because I didn't dare to resist my father's marriage arrangement for me, so I turned a blind eye to your wishes. But you gave me courage today, and I am willing to break through all obstacles and be with Brother Luoy Together."

After finishing speaking, Procne threw himself into Roy's arms and hugged Roy's waist with both hands.

"Procne..."

Feeling Procne's heartbeat speeding up due to intense shyness through the thin clothes, Roy said with a solemn face.

"In the past, you and Philomela were with me at the same time, and I treated you two sisters with the same attitude. If you think my attitude is to pursue you, it means that I am also pursuing Philomela, Are you willing to be a rival in love with your sister?"

After listening to Roy's words, Procne's whole body froze instantly.

"Brother Roy is joking! My sister... Philomela is still a child!"

"15 years old is not young! Among ordinary people, there are girls married at 15, not to mention girls married at 13. If you think 15-year-old Philomela is a child, I agree I think you are a child when you are 16 years old."

"Brother Roy told me this, because he wants me to give up being with you?"

"I just want you to make up your mind. You won't be the only girl around me. If Philomela has the same thoughts as you, would you like to serve the same husband as other girls?"

Procne was silent for a moment, then buried her face in Roy's arms and said.

"For other girls, I can accept them as concubines with a lower status than me. After all, it is normal for men to have many women. If Philomela likes Brother Roy as much as I do, I am willing to let Philomela do it." As the main wife, I will be Roy's brother's concubine."

"Even if you want to be my concubine, you still want to be with me?"

"wrong!"

Procne immediately shook his head and said.

"I am willing to let Philomela be your first wife! If Philomela doesn't have the same thoughts as me, I certainly don't agree to let other women be your first wife."

The effect of Aphrodite's blessing [Charm Boost] is really powerful.

It was able to make Procne willing to serve her husband with her sisters, even if it was a concubine, she had to be with her.

If he hadn't made a marriage contract with Harmonia, Roy would definitely accept Procne's love without hesitation.

Now Roy can only change the subject.

"Procne! Perseus is the grandson of Acrisios, the king of Mycenae. If he wants to defeat his competitors and become the heir to the throne, he can only wage war to establish merit and prestige. So Perseus soon Will wage war against our Athenian tribe, and regard the Athenian tribe as his stepping stone to the throne of Mycenae. Now I just want to concentrate on dealing with the upcoming war. After the war is over, I can respond to your wishes after careful consideration .”

"Responding to the war is indeed a more important thing. I am willing to wait for brother Roy."

Hearing Procne's answer, Roy said with a sigh of relief.

"It's very late now. If you don't go back, Mrs. Zuixiper will definitely think that I ate you, and then she will force me to marry you."

"Eat me?"

Procne raised his head and said suspiciously.

"Brother Roy can eat people? Or can men eat women?"

"It seems that Mrs. Zeuksipper hasn't taught you about the relationship between husband and wife."

Looking at Procne's innocent little face, Roy couldn't help whispering a few words into her ear.

"ah--"

Procne screamed in embarrassment, and hurriedly escaped from Roy's arms.

"Brother Roy, you have to wait until you and I get married to have children. If I have a child before I get married, my father will definitely treat me as a family shame and beat me to death."

"Silly girl! Chief Pandion values ​​his daughter more than the reputation of the family, so he will not beat you to death, but will hurry us to get married. As long as we have children, even if my father-in-law doesn't like me, I will Hold your nose and recognize my son-in-law."

Looking at Roy's confident smile, Procne summoned up his courage and said.

"If...if my mother can't convince my father, I'm willing to dedicate my body and mind to Brother Luoy, so that my father will agree to our marriage."

After speaking, Procne blushed with shame, turned around and fled from Roy.

"Procne..."

Seeing Procne's leaving figure, Roy put away his smile and whispered with a complicated expression.

"Aphrodite's blessing [charm enhancement] is indeed a curse! Without Aphrodite's blessing, I would never have faced the problem of choosing between Harmonia and Procne .Philomela is also fond of me, and if she also falls in love with me because of Aphrodite's blessing—"

Thinking of the scene where the three daughters of Harmonia, Procne, and Philomela were fighting for a husband, Roy walked out of the stone house with some headaches and came to the statue of Metis in the center of the temple square.

Under the bright moonlight.

Roy looked up at the statue of Metis and whispered.

"Goddess Metis..."

Roy just read the name of Metis, but did not call for the goddess to come.

But the next moment—

The statue of Metis burst into dazzling azure light, and then the statue of Metis turned into the goddess Metis herself.

Seeing Metis looking down at him with cold eyes, Roy said with some doubts.

"Great Goddess Metis, did I do something to make you angry?"

"You have the blessings of other gods on you!"

Metis said in an interrogating tone.

"Did you betray me and turn to other gods?"

It turned out that Metis came to him on his own initiative because he realized that he was blessed by other gods and suspected that he had betrayed her.

Roy immediately shook his head and said.

"I didn't betray you! I will be blessed by other gods because I helped the earth goddess Mnemosyne in Thebes area and offended the foreign god Aphrodite—"

Roy explained why he received Aphrodite's blessing [charm boost] and Mnemosyne's blessing [future prediction], and Metis said with a faint smile.

"After you return to the Athens tribe, you should come and explain this matter to me immediately, so that I can clear up the misunderstanding."

After speaking, Metis' body once again burst into azure blue light.

Seeing that Metis was about to leave, Roy couldn't help but said.

"Goddess Metis, please wait a moment."
