Reversing Greek Mythology

Chapter 137 Is this playing hard to get?

Looking at the humanoid demon Yin Simene in front of him, Luo Yin asked curiously.

"Even I don't know that I will come to this place at this time. Why do you know that I will pass by here at this time?"

Yin Simene did not deny Luo Yin's suspicion about her, and directly turned the horse's head and left towards the north.

Looking at her graceful back and swaying ponytail, Luo Yin hesitated for a moment, then rode up to follow Yin Simene and said.

"Now Diomedes and his allies launched the Second Theban War. As the princess of Thebes, you did not stay in the city of Thebes to protect your city-state. Instead, you came to the southern part of the Argos region. Near the city of Mycenae, if I guess correctly, you want me to save the kingdom of Thebes that is about to be destroyed.”

Yin Simene, who had her back turned to Luo Yin, said in an emotionless voice.

"Now Athena has obtained half of Argos, and Thebes has also been conquered by Athena. This will trouble you very much!"

The most powerful god in Greece was originally Zeus Poseidon, who ruled the Argos and Inlis regions in the Peloponnese Peninsula, and controlled the Arcadia region and half of Pylos.

Now Luoyin and Athena divided the Argos region, Arcadia became a vassal of Luoyin, and Persephone also took back the entire Pylos region.

Zeus and Poseidon, like Agamemnon and Menelaus, could only huddle together in the region of Inlis.

Pallas Athena, who ruled the entire Attica region and half of Argos, was already the undisputed strongest goddess.

If even Thebes became her territory, Luo Yin would completely lose hope of fighting her.

Thinking of this, Luo Yin asked the horse to speed up, walked side by side with Yin Simene and looked at her side face and said.

"During the reign of Pandion I, the sixth king of Athens, the Kingdom of Thebes was a powerful kingdom that could ravage the Kingdom of Athens and humiliate the proud Athena to ask for help from other city-states - this was a great feat that even Zeus could not complete. Chapter 1 During the Theban War, the city of Thebes defeated seven thousand coalition troops from the Argos region, once again defeating Zeus's ambition to conquer the Peloponnese eight hundred years later. In the war, the city of Sparta defeated the city of Athens to dominate Greece, and it was also the Holy Army of Thebes that shattered the city of Sparta's dream of hegemony. With these glorious achievements, no one can deny that the city of Thebes has the ability to seize hegemony. potential. If the Thebes region is conquered by Athena, I am afraid that I will go to Sparta in humiliation and pray to King Tyndareus of Sparta to marry his daughter to me and make Sparta a staunch ally of Mycenae. ”

Seeing that Yin Simene was still expressionless, Luo Yin teased with a joking smile.

"Although Athena's conquest of Thebes is a huge crisis for me, the first victim is you, the subjugated princess. If you come to beg me to save the kingdom of Thebes, then face me with a begging attitude. "It is not my duty to save the city of Thebes."

Yin Simene seemed to have not heard Luo Yin's words and continued to move forward without saying a word.

Luo Yin followed closely beside Yin Simene and said angrily.

"Do you want me to take the initiative to rescue the city of Thebes? Do you think I have the potential to become a bitch? If you show your face in front of me, I will save your city-state?"

Yin Simene still said nothing, and Luo Yin said helplessly.

"I don't want to humiliate myself by begging King Tyndareus of Sparta to marry my daughter to me, so I have long decided to prevent Athena from conquering Thebes. You return to Mycenae with me first, and I will gather two thousand soldiers to follow Together you rescue the city of Thebes.”

Yinsmene, who had been silent, finally spoke.

"What the Kingdom of Thebes lacks is not soldiers, but heroes who can defeat Diomedes."

During the First Theban War, the city of Thebes had several heroes who could rival the hero god Tydeus and the hero god Amphiaraus. This was also the main reason why the city of Thebes was able to win.

It is a pity that now, ten years later, all the older generation of heroes in Thebes have withered away, and the only young hero is Laodamas, the grandson of Oedipus, the nephew of Insmene.

The coalition forces that attacked the city of Thebes for the second time had eight powerful heroes—one more than the seven heroes in the first Thebes War.

Luo Yin also knew that the Kingdom of Thebes did not lack ordinary soldiers.

Seeing Yin Simene respond to him, Luo Yin said with a faint smile.

"Although I can indeed defeat Diomedes, this is not something you can know in the city of Thebes. Could it be that your ancestor Harmonia, the wife of Cadmus, served Priest of the goddess, you are also a royal princess who serves as a priest. Are you asking me for help because of the guidance of the goddess? Or are you the incarnation of the goddess who protects the Thebes area? "

Yin Simene fell silent again, as if she didn't hear Luo Yin's words.

Luo Yin endured the dissatisfaction in his heart and went north with Yinsmene to the port of a fishing village in the Gulf of Corinth. He saw a large ship anchored in the port that could accommodate fifty people.

After Luo Yin and Insmene boarded the ship on horseback, Insmene jumped off the horse, handed the horse to a sailor to take care of, and then walked into the cabin alone.

Seeing the sailors setting sail towards the Thebes area in the north of the Strait of Corinth, Luo Yin also left the horses in the care of the sailors, and then chased Yinsmene into the cabin.

Inside the cabin, which is divided into two rooms by a curtain.

Luo Yin entered the cabin and saw Yin Simene hiding behind the curtain, and immediately frowned dissatisfied and said.

"You took the initiative to come to me and deliberately let me see your face hidden by the veil. But now you are avoiding me and not talking to me. Is this a trick of playing hard to get with me after I took the bait?"

"no."

Yinsmene explained in a gentle voice.

"Although I'm about ten years older than you, I'm also unmarried, so we can't be alone together."

During the First Theban War, Insmene was already a beautiful girl of about fifteen years old.

Now, ten years later, Yinsmene is already around twenty-five years old.

If it were another girl, she might now be the mother of three children.

However, Insmene and her sister Antigone were both unmarried princesses - just like the two goddesses who guarded the Thebes region, they had always maintained their status as virgin goddesses.

"When the two of us were traveling in the deserted wilderness, you were not afraid to be alone with me. Now that we are on a ship with dozens of sailors, you are worried that being alone with me will affect the reputation of your unmarried princess - immediately Do you think I am a fool if a princess who is about to lose her country cares about her own reputation?"

After Luo Yin finished speaking in an angry tone, Yin Simene said nervously.

"I can close the curtain, but you have to respect me and treat me like a grown-up big sister."

After saying that, Yinsmene parted the curtain.

After seeing the curtain parting, Yin Simene immediately turned her back to her, and Luo Yin teased with a joking smile.

"You deliberately emphasize that you are older than me, and you don't want to face me head-on. Are you afraid that I will target your older sister?"

Luo Yin's response was still Yin Simene's silence.
