I was a priest in the city-state era

"you--"

Hearing Roy speak out his goal bluntly, Sekhmet couldn't help but widen his eyes and said.

"Where do you get the confidence to think you can be my husband?"

"Because I am the emperor of the Athenian Empire."

Roy said confidently.

"Sekhmet! As long as you are willing to marry me, I will let you have more territory. If you don't want to share the power to rule Egypt with me, I will consider changing a goddess who is willing to marry me to become the ruler of Egypt. Queen of the Gods. I believe that the goddesses Nate, Bastetto, Nehebet, and Wadjet will all be interested in replacing you.”

"Is this threatening me?"

Sekhmet frowned and asked.

"When you treat me like this, aren't you worried that all the goddesses will unite to fight against you?"

"If you, the many goddesses of the Athenian Empire, can unite, of course I dare not threaten you like I am now, but I know that it is absolutely impossible for you to unite. Because you goddesses are not equal to each other, and those who are weak in status and strength It is absolutely impossible for a goddess to support those goddesses with powerful status and strength. As long as I oust you from the throne, other goddesses will be able to divide your territory and authority. Therefore, not only will they not help you, they will also seize the opportunity to make trouble for you. . If you don’t believe it, I don’t mind letting the Egyptian region break away from the Athenian Empire, and then I will conquer the Egyptian region by force and truly turn the Egyptian region into the territory of the Athenian Empire.”

Don’t worry about scarcity, but worry about inequality——

This statement applies not only to humans, but also to gods.

Some gods have small territories and weak divine powers, while some gods have vast territories and have powerful powers.

Will those weak gods really support the powerful gods and be willing to sacrifice their own interests for the interests of the powerful gods?

The answer is of course no.

Sekhmet also understood that if she wanted to fight Roy, not only would she end up fighting alone, but there would also be a goddess behind Roy who wanted to replace her.

"Don't you think this is despicable? You actually took advantage of the competition for interests between our goddesses to make me surrender to you——"

Sekhmet said through gritted teeth.

"Just like a lioness will only accept a powerful male lion, as a lion goddess, I will only marry a husband who is more powerful than me. If you want to be my husband, then use your strength to defeat me."

Defeat Sekhmet——

Roy said with a smile.

"Goddess Sekhmet, I don't have the strength to defeat you yet. Now let's make an agreement. Before I can defeat you, I will not force you to marry me in any way. But I have become stronger than you, After I can defeat you with strength, you will marry me unconditionally, and together we will become the highest god and goddess in Egypt."

Sekhmet hesitated for a while, then finally nodded.

"Okay! Just as you said. When you defeat me with your strength, I will agree to marry you."

"Dear Sekhmet, I won't keep you waiting too long."

After reaching an agreement with Roy, Sekhmet's figure immediately disappeared from the throne hall.

Roy turned to Nafir and said.

"Dear Nafir, your goddess Sekhmet has agreed to marry me. As long as I can defeat Sekhmet with my strength in the future, Sekhmet will become my wife."

Seeing the proud expression on Roy's face, Nafir complained expressionlessly.

"Are you really not worried that the goddesses will unite to fight you? I don't think the wise goddess will be stupid enough to be defeated by you individually."

"Do you know how many goddesses there are in the Athenian Empire now, and how are these goddesses related to each other?"

Roy said with a smile.

"Alina, the sun goddess from the Caucasus, has a blood feud with the earth goddess from Asia Minor that has lasted for hundreds of years. If someone can resolve the blood feud between them and let them join forces to deal with me, I am willing to surrender directly."

The bloody feud between the sun goddess Alina and the earth goddess is only the most striking example of the impossibility of these goddesses joining forces.

There are also large and small hatreds and competition for interests among other goddesses.

Let these goddesses unite to fight Roy——

It sounds simple, but in fact it is simply impossible to achieve.

I'm afraid these goddesses would rather marry Roy than let go of their blood feud and become allies with their past enemies.

After all, there is no benefit in joining forces with the enemy.

Marry Roy - you can get a huge territory as a betrothal gift and enhance your status and authority.

Naphiel was speechless by Roy, because she really didn't understand the relationship between the many goddesses in the Athenian Empire.

Roy continued.

"Dear Nafir! It seems that you are full of complaints about me. I need to improve our relationship as husband and wife."

After saying that, Roy picked up Sekhmet in a princess hug and walked to her queen's palace.

Of course, if Roy wants to improve his relationship with Nafir, he won't use sweet words.

Because thousands of sweet words are not as good as sleeping with Nafir.

Hattusha City.

The city was originally the capital of the Hittite Kingdom.

The Hittite Kingdom became the Hittite region of the Athenian Empire, and the city of Hattusa also changed from the capital of the Hittite Kingdom to the ruling center of the Hittite region.

Hittite palace.

Hatepuna was sitting on the throne in the hall, receiving the chiefs of various tribes in the Caucasus.

King Colchis, King Sasbel, King Dali, and King Kopala stood respectfully in the center of the hall, like subjects meeting the queen.

"My dear leaders, I want to bring the Caucasus under my rule. Do you all have any objections?"

King Colchis said immediately after hearing Hatepuna's question.

"Great Queen Hatepuna, you are the highest priestess serving the sun goddess. We Colchis people are willing to let you rule us."

After King Colchis took the lead, King Sasbel, King Dali, and King Kopala also expressed their willingness to let Hatepuna become the queen who ruled them.

They were willing to be ruled by Hatepuna, not only because the Hittite army with iron weapons had already arrived in the Caucasus, but also because the Hittites also lived in the Caucasus in the past and were their own people in their eyes.

Hatepuna said with a satisfied smile.

"You have all made a wise choice! Now both the Hittite region and the Caucasus region are ruled by me. I hope you can allow the Caucasians to travel to the Hittite region in large numbers, so that the Hittites know that we are not the only Hittites, and not only the Hittite region worships the sun goddess."

After Hatepuna finished speaking, Roy's voice suddenly rang out.

"The goddess Sekhmet in the Egyptian region is also the sun goddess. I think you can also allow the Egyptians to travel to the Hittite region in large numbers, so that the Hittites know that the Egyptian region also worships the sun goddess Sekhmet."

The next moment!

Roy's figure appeared in the hall.

Seeing Roy, King Colchis, King Sasbel, King Dali, and King Kopala immediately saluted respectfully.

"Great God Phaethon!"

"You are wrong!"

Roy explained with a smile.

"In the territory of the Athenian Empire, my identity is the emperor of the Athenian Empire, so you should call me His Majesty the Emperor."

Then, Roy said to Hatepuna on the throne.

"Dear Hatepuna, I'm back."
