I was a priest in the city-state era

Roy just told the beginning of the story, and Procne fell asleep unknowingly.

"Procne..."

Roy tried to call softly and confirmed that Procne was sleeping deeply. Roy got up from the bed and left, going to the corridor outside the room.

The corridor where the night breeze blows.

An oil lamp burning olive oil glowed in a sheltered corner.

Roy glanced at Pandora's room, then turned and walked toward the corridor.

But as soon as Roy raised his right foot, his body suddenly stood still as if it was petrified.

Because Roy saw Pandora standing in the corridor, letting the moonlight shine all over her body, letting the night wind blow up her skirt, revealing her beautiful white ankles wearing golden strappy sandals.

As if she didn't notice Roy, Pandora raised her beautiful left arm upwards as if no one else was watching.

Thumping, fluttering—

With the sound of flapping wings, an owl flew from the night sky and landed on Pandora's raised left wrist.

Seeing that the owl was like a domesticated pet, carefully resting on Pandora's left wrist to avoid hurting Pandora with his claws, Roy finally couldn't help but say.

"Is this your pet?"

"no!"

Hearing Pandora's answer, Roy's eyes widened in shock.

Could it be that this ability to tame owls is Pandora’s special power as the incarnation of the moon goddess——

Is she really the incarnation of the moon goddess?

After coming back to his senses, Roy said in a daze.

"Princess Pandora! It's already late at night, can't you sleep?"

Pandora replied with a teasing smile.

“As the incarnation of the Moon Goddess, I should be like this owl—it’s at night when I’m most active.”

"Are you really the reincarnation of the soul of Pandora, the moon goddess of Crete?"

Hearing the tremor in Roy's voice, Pandora turned around and looked at Roy and said.

"Does it matter to you whether I am the reincarnation of the soul of the moon goddess Pandora?"

Roy nodded and said.

"If you are really the incarnation of the Moon Goddess, I want you to tell me how you can transform back into a goddess now that you are a human."

"Why do you want to explore the secrets of gods? Do you also want to become a god?"

"I do want to be a god! I am not the only human being in this era who wants to be a god."

"Other humans want to become heroic gods, so they will not explore the secrets of gods. You want to explore the secrets of gods to prove that you do not want to become heroic gods."

Roy frowned and said after Pandora saw through his thoughts.

"Princess Pandora! I'm just curious about the secrets of the gods. If you don't want to tell me, then I will go back to my room and sleep."

"I can tell you, but you have to finish the story."

"story?"

"I heard the story you told Procne just now."

Pandora said with a smile.

"As the incarnation of the Moon Goddess, it's normal for me to be able to hear your chat outside!"

"That's not an interesting story! Since you want to hear it, I'll tell you the story I haven't finished telling Procne! The Pharaoh Kamos of the Southern Egyptians began under the protection of the sun god Amun. After attacking the nomads from the Phoenician region who occupied northern Egypt, one of the Phoenician nomads, the group we now call the Mycenaeans, was conquered by the Mycenaean king Acrisius. Under the leadership of Oos, they migrated from northern Egypt to Crete. In Crete, the Mycenaean patron saint Zeus absorbed the concept of the goddess Europa as the goddess of cattle, and developed the image of Zeus the Bull. The Mycenaeans began to claim that the goddess Europa was the wife of Zeus, and that King Minos of Knossos only had the authority to be the overlord of the Aegean Sea as the son of Zeus. The Mycenaeans believed that Minos was the son of Zeus. A gift to Minos. But to Minos, the Mycenaeans were not only humiliating the king of Knossos, but also desecrating the patron goddess of the city of Knossos, so Minos expelled them. The Mycenaeans were forced to migrate to the Argos region of the Peloponnese.”

After Roy paused, Pandora couldn't help laughing.

"It turns out that the story you told is the history of what happened in the past."

Seeing Pandora's charming smile, Roy opened his eyes in surprise and said.

"Princess Pandora, you look so beautiful when you smile. Why do you always look expressionless when Deucalion is around?"

"This has nothing to do with you, keep telling your historical stories!"

"The Mycenaeans were expelled by the King of Knossos. Naturally, they were full of hatred for the King of Knossos, so they began to belittle the goddess Europa and the royal family of Knossos in the myths they made up for Zeus. In Mycenaean In the myth made by the Neanderthals about Zeus, the goddess Europa was just a human princess. Because she became the human wife of Zeus, the goddess Europa could become an immortal goddess. The king and queen of Knossos, as male and female priests, were also male minotaurs wearing horns. The Mycenaeans made up the story of Minos offending Poseidon in their mythology. In order to punish Minos, Poseidon asked Minos' queen to disguise herself as a cow and follow her. A bull gave birth to a minotaur who lived in the labyrinth.”

After listening to Roy's story, Pandora blinked in confusion and said.

"The Minotaur who lived in the labyrinth - Minos [minotaur] who lived in the labyrinth-like palace. The myth made up by the Mycenaeans hinted that the queen of Minos gave birth to the future king. And the queen disguised as a cow, hinting that the queen was a female minotaur with horns on her head. The bull who gave birth to the queen was obviously hinting at the male minotaur with horns on his head. The myth made up by the Mycenaeans did not seem to maliciously belittle the royal family of Knossos!"

Women are indeed long-haired and short-sighted, even the incarnation of the goddess is no exception.

"Princess Pandora! We who live in the present, of course, know that the king of Knossos is a bull-headed man with horns [Minos], the queen is a bull-headed woman with horns, and the bull-headed Minotaur born to the king and queen is the next king of Knossos. But people a thousand, two, or three thousand years from now will find it difficult to understand the current situation. If the myths made up by the Mycenaeans are passed down thousands of years later, people thousands of years later may really take the myths made up by the Mycenaeans seriously, believing that there are bull-headed men living in the palace of Knossos, and that the queen of Minos gave birth to a half-man, half-bull monster with a bull."

"Hehehehe——"

Roy said seriously, and Pandora immediately laughed.

"You are so funny! We live in the present, why should we care if people thousands of years later take the myths made up by the Mycenaeans seriously?"

"You are Deucalion's fiancée, the next queen of Minoan [minotaur] Deucalion. Don't you care that you are the queen who gave birth to a monster with a bull in the Mycenaeans' myth?"

"Well - who can predict the future? Deucalion's queen may not be me."

"Then tell me quickly, how do you turn back into a goddess?"
