I was a priest in the city-state era

After Polydectes and Dicetis were killed by Roy, the Seriphos soldiers lost their allegiance and naturally had no reason to continue fighting desperately.

Roy handed over the more than 200 surrendered Seriphos soldiers to Aries for management, and then returned to the royal palace castle on the top of the hill alone.

Royal Palace Hall.

When Roy came here, he saw Chione leading a hundred Eleusin soldiers and confronting a group of Seriphos soldiers.

Apparently, after learning that Polydectes and Dicetis had returned to Seriphos Island, these Seriphos soldiers wanted to take back their queen and princess.

Seeing Roy walk into the hall, the eyes of both sides of the confrontation were all focused on Roy.

Roy looked at the Seriphos soldiers who surrendered and then resisted with a cold look, and then looked at Danae and the princesses around her and said.

"I have killed Polydectes and Dectis, and now Seriphos Island is completely under our control."

Danae learned that her husband was killed, and the princesses learned that their fathers were killed. These women immediately cried in grief.

The Seriphos soldiers in the hall were also struck by lightning.

Originally, they thought that Polydectes and Dectis could defeat the invaders, so they would resist again after surrendering and want to take back the queen and princesses. Unexpectedly, King Polydectes and Prince Dectis would be killed by Roy.

Hearing the crying of Queen Danae and the princesses, the Seriphos soldiers in the hall laid down their weapons, but their hearts were more desperate than Danae and the princesses.

Because they resisted after surrendering, even if they were not killed, they would be reduced to slaves.

Seeing the surrender of the Seriphos soldiers, Chione first breathed a sigh of relief, and then came to Roy to ask.

"Master, are you injured?"

"Polydectes and Dicetis are both middle-aged men around 40 years old. How could I get hurt by them?"

Roy turned around in front of Chione, showing his unharmed body.

Then, Roy whispered.

"Chione, tie the hands of these Serifos soldiers who surrendered for the second time with ropes. I want to take them back to Athens as slaves."

Chione nodded.

Chione could not sympathize with the Serifos soldiers who surrendered and then resisted.

After the Eleusinian soldiers took away the Serifos soldiers who surrendered for the second time, Roy came to the crying Danae and the six princesses, and only then did he feel like looking at them seriously.

In ancient legends, Mycenae King Perseus was deified as the son of the King of Gods, and his mother Danae was naturally deified as the human wife of the King of Gods.

As the human wife of the king of gods, Roy could see that Danae had a beauty that was not inferior to Procne, Philomela, Harmonia and Khione when she was young.

This beautiful queen, who was nearly 40 years old, had a different figure from an unmarried girl because she had given birth to a child.

The Mycenaeans were descendants of nomadic peoples in the Phoenician region, so Danae's skin color was different from the southern European whites in Greece, but her skin color was also very fair, belonging to the white skin of the darker West Asian people.

The bronze belt worn around her waist highlighted Danae's slender waist, but it was a pity that she had given birth to a child after all, and her waist was not as slender as Khione and Procne.

The sleeveless pure white robe wrapped her body, revealing not only her bare feet, but also a pair of white arms.

The years left almost no trace on Danae's face, making her look like a young woman in her twenties, but she was old enough to be Roy's mother after all.

So Roy's eyes quickly shifted from Danae to the six princesses.

These six princesses are not all daughters of Danae. Only three of them look somewhat similar to Danae, and the other three are obviously not descendants of the Mycenaeans born to Danae.

Although these six princesses are young and beautiful girls, their beauty is not as good as Danae.

"It's okay for the daughters of Dectes! It's really disappointing that the daughters of Danae didn't inherit their mother's beauty."

Hearing Roy's muttering, Chione frowned and said.

"Master, do you like the beauty of Queen Danae and the six princesses? They are your spoils now, and you have the right to take them for yourself."

Hearing the sourness in Chione's words, Roy hugged Chione in his arms and said.

"With you by my side, how could I possibly like these women who are less beautiful than you."

"But you were staring at Queen Danae just now."

"I was thinking - should I offer Danae as a trophy to my father-in-law Pandion."

Roy explained.

"If I offer the young princesses to my father-in-law, he will definitely think that these young princesses are about the same age as his own daughters, so he will refuse to accept the spoils. Danae is about the same age as my mother-in-law, and her beauty is not inferior to my mother-in-law. My father-in-law should be willing to accept Danae. But I am a little worried that if I give Danae to my father-in-law, it may destroy the relationship between my father-in-law and mother-in-law, and I must take responsibility to comfort my mother-in-law."

"Then you want to keep Queen Danae with you?"

"No-I want to give Danae to my father-in-law! It doesn't matter if it will destroy the relationship between my father-in-law and mother-in-law. I will take responsibility to comfort my mother-in-law, Lady Zeuxippe."

Time went by and it was evening.

After more than 400 Serifos soldiers were controlled, Roy's soldiers began to plunder food, bronze utensils and other property in the palace as spoils.

Roy held Chione and lay on the throne in the hall, thinking about how to treat the residents of Serifos.

In the past, when Roy attacked the pirate village on Milos Island, he was able to order the killing of all the men in the pirate village and take away all the women and children as spoils because it was a pirate village.

Serifos Island has more than 4,000 residents, many of whom are innocent farmers, shepherds or craftsmen.

So Roy now faces a problem, whether to be ruthless and migrate all the residents of Serifos Island to Athens, so that the city of Athens will increase its population by 4,000, or to leave these 4,000 people to Perseus and let them provide Perseus with taxes and soldiers.

"Leave the residents of Serifos Island to Perseus, and many of them will become Perseus' soldiers to deal with me in the future!"

Thinking of this, Roy finally made a decision.

After unconsciously hugging Kayne's slender waist with his left hand, Roy said expressionlessly.

"Kayne, I have made a very cruel decision. Tomorrow I will force all the residents of Serifos to migrate and transfer them to Athens by boat."

Hearing Roy's words, Kayne couldn't help but widen her eyes, thinking of the people of the Eleusis tribe who were forced to migrate to Athens.

Although she sympathized with the residents of Serifos, Kayne still held Roy's hands on her waist with her own hands and said.

"Master! You made the right decision, so I am willing to support you."

"You still call me master?"

Roy said with his cheek against Kayne's little face.

"You help me win this war, and as a reward, I will free you from slavery. You don't have to call me master anymore."
