I was a priest in the city-state era

Chapter 104 Procne's Fiancé

The stone hall of Pandion's house.

As soon as Roy and Pandion's family returned to the stone table and sat down, a group of young and beautiful maids brought freshly cooked barbecue and oatmeal to the stone table.

Smelling the aroma of barbecue, Philomela couldn't help but smile.

"The banquet prepared for Perseus yesterday turned into a banquet to celebrate brother Loy's defeat of Perseus. Unexpectedly, the banquet that Terrios was invited to today also turned into a celebration for brother Loy's defeat of Terius. banquet.”

Except for the innocent and simple Philomela, no one could laugh at this time.

Because the expression on Pandion's face was frighteningly cold.

Being stared at by Pandion, Roy could only take the initiative to speak.

"Actually, we don't need to worry about the threat of Tereus, because the city of Elis in Tereus is too far away from us, and the population of Elis city is not large. For example, Tereus can only bring three hundred people with him today. Three Elis soldiers came to our aid, and Tereus became our enemy. He could only attack us with three hundred soldiers. But our city of Athens has a population of tens of thousands and thousands of soldiers. Tereus attacked us with pebbles against stones. "

Pandion said coldly with an expressionless face.

"You think I care about Tereus? What I care about is the relationship between Procne and Philomela and you. Now you must explain it clearly to me."

Sure enough, I still can't get around this topic.

Roy glanced at Procne and Philomela, and then said to Pandion.

"Chief Pandion! I just told a lot of lies to prevent Tereus from proposing to Procne and Philomela. Procne and Philomela are still unmarried, and they have not lost their virginity to me. Phil and I Romela has not confessed to each other as lovers, but Procne and I have expressed our love for each other, so I will become Procne’s husband and your son-in-law.”

Roy bravely revealed the relationship between the two, and Procne immediately came to Roy, knelt down and begged Pandion and Zeuxiper.

"Father! Mother! I know that I am a daughter who has disappointed you and brought shame to the family. But Brother Roy and I love each other, and I ask you to allow me to marry Brother Roy."

"Procne..."

Looking at Procne's petite and frail figure, Roy picked her up and said.

"You don't need to wrong yourself like this. Even if Chief Pandion and Mrs. Zeuxippo don't agree to our marriage and are unwilling to give us the blessing of marriage, you will become my wife."

"snort!"

Hearing Roy's words, Pandion snorted, but his eyes became much softer.

Looking at Procne being held in Roy's arms, Zeuxiper, who felt sorry for his daughter, said to Pandion.

"Dear! Compared with those suitors we don't know anything about, Roy's character and abilities are obvious to all. Since Procne likes Roy, in order for our daughter to get true happiness, let's accept Roy! "

Pandion seemed not to have heard what Zeuxiper said, and kept staring at Roy.

After a moment, Pandion said slowly.

"You have become my son-in-law, and you cannot compete with Erechtheus for the position of heir. After you marry Procne, I will give you one-third of the property, and then deprive Procne of her inheritance rights - Are you willing to accept it?"

Roy had never thought about competing with Erechtheus for the position of heir after Pandion's death.

After all, Pandion is also a strong hero. If Roy waits for Pandion to die of old age, he may have to wait decades later.

So after hearing Pandion's request, Roy nodded without hesitation.

"I will not compete with Erechtheus for the position of heir! Even if Procne does not inherit any property, I will marry Procne."

Looking at Roy's sincere eyes, Pandion pretended to be dissatisfied and said.

"My love for my son and daughter is the same, and the property that should be inherited by Procne will not be less at all. Now, as Procne's father, I agree to marry Procne to you. From now on, you will be Procne." My fiancé, I will find a suitable time to hold a formal wedding for you."

"Honey!"

Hearing his father's words, Procne in Roy's arms raised his head excitedly and said.

"Now I belong to you legitimately."

Looking at Procne's lovely lips, Roy couldn't help but want to lower his head and bite her to celebrate the two becoming an unmarried couple.

Unfortunately, his father-in-law-to-be, Pandion, and his mother-in-law, Zeuxiper, were present, so he could only suppress the restlessness in his heart.

"Procne! Now not only do you belong to me, but I also belong to you."

Seeing Roy and Procne showing affection, Philomela and Erechtheus couldn't help but frown.

Philomela felt as if she would lose Loy and Procne at the same time.

Erechtheus thought of Chione.

"my daughter!"

Seeing Roy and Procne hugging each other, Zeuxipo couldn't help but say.

"It's time for you to come back to me."

Hearing her mother's words, Procne hurriedly ran away from Roy's arms and returned to Zeuxiper with a blushing face.

After Procne sat down between Zeuxiper and Philomela, Zeuxiper whispered.

"It seems that I have to strictly control you during this period to prevent you from getting pregnant before getting married."

"Mother--"

Procne pretended to be dissatisfied and acted coquettishly.

Philomela looked at Procne with a complicated expression and said.

"Sister, will you still love me as much as before after you marry Brother Roy?"

"Of course!"

Procne smiled without hesitation.

"No matter what happens, my love for you will not change."

"But the time we spend together will be reduced."

Philomela frowned and said.

"When my sister and I are together with Brother Roy, we are all very happy. Sister and Brother Roy can't leave me alone."

While the women were whispering, Roy was looking at Pandion.

Although Pandion accepted Roy as his son-in-law, he did not show his love for Roy.

Roy could only take the initiative to speak.

"Dear father-in-law! Since Perseus can wage war against us, we can certainly wage war against Perseus in retaliation. The Mycenaeans are too powerful. I plan to take my followers and 300 Eleusinian soldiers to attack the island of Seriphos, the hometown of Perseus. I hope to get your permission."

"I have no reason to refuse."

Pandion said expressionlessly.

"Perseus started a war against us Athenians, and we should indeed take revenge on Perseus. But you are going to take the Eleusinian soldiers with you. Do you think the Eleusinian soldiers are more trustworthy than the Athenian soldiers?"

"Now the Eleusinians are the Athenians, and the Eleusinian soldiers are the Athenian soldiers. I trust the Eleusinian soldiers and the Athenian soldiers equally."

Roy explained.

"I chose to take the Eleusinian soldiers with me so that they can integrate into the city of Athens as soon as possible. These 300 Eleusinian soldiers will truly become the soldiers of the city of Athens, which will greatly enhance the strength of the city of Athens."
