I was a priest in the city-state era

Gods are not emotionless machines after all.

Because the godhead of the ancient sun god worshiped by the Aryans reappeared in Loy, the moon goddess Shana would regard Loy as her main god and brother - which of course was impossible.

Roy didn't pay attention to Shana's reaction, looking down at Kuyerebus with majestic eyes and said.

"Goddess Cuyerebus! Without my arrival, the sun god Oronzaro and the moon goddess Shana will conquer the Iberian Peninsula and demote you, the native goddess of the Iberian Peninsula, to an evil god and demon. As a way to save you My benefactor, now I ask you and Busgesu and Herisug to surrender to me. Do you accept it or not?"

The trinity of earth goddesses Kuyerebus, Busgasu, and Khrisug worshiped by the Iberians could not defeat the sun god Oronzaro and the moon goddess Shana worshiped by the Aryans - just as civilization and technology stayed at The Iberians of the Neolithic Age could not defeat the Aryans who had war horses as tools of war.

Therefore, Roy claimed to be the benefactor who saved Kuyerebus, Busgasu, and Khrisug. The three earth goddesses did not refute.

After Busgasu and Hrisug were separated from Kuyerebus, Goddess Busgasu teased with a smile.

"I thought you were the hero who saved us, but I didn't expect you would use this kindness to ask us to surrender."

Roy said expressionlessly.

"I never said I was a hero."

Hrisug said with a sigh.

"We do owe you a favor, and we cannot defeat you, so we have no reason to refuse to surrender to you. Now I only have one question to ask you, how will you treat the Iberians?"

"I will incorporate the Iberian Peninsula into the territory of the Athenian Empire. From now on, Iberians will be Athenians."

Roy said with a serious face.

"Under the legal protection of the Athenian Empire, all Athenians will have equal status, including of course my new subjects, the Iberians."

After listening to Roy's words, Kuyerebus said expressionlessly.

"Then as you wish, we will surrender to you to repay your kindness."

"very good!"

Roy said with a satisfied smile.

"Persephone, the earth goddess who has the same origin as you, will become the mistress of the Iberian Peninsula. Even if you can't trust me, you can at least trust your distant relatives and sisters."

After saying that, Roy looked away from the three goddesses and looked at the moon goddess Shana.

"Shaina!"

Roy took the initiative to fly to Shana, stretched out his right hand to her little head and said.

“Do you want to be the Moon Goddess of the Iberian Peninsula, or do you want to be the Moon Goddess of other regions?”

"Do not touch me!"

Xia Na dodged Roy's right hand with an arrogant look, then glared at Roy fiercely and said.

"You think of me as your sister without permission. You are such an arrogant guy."

"Then you don't admit that I am your brother?"

Roy said with a disappointed sigh.

"I have already decided to make you the Moon Goddess of the Iberian Peninsula. Since you don't think I am your brother, then I will give the throne of the Moon Goddess of the Iberian Peninsula to other goddesses. The Athenian Empire Although there are not many moon goddesses, there are definitely many, and I believe they will all be interested in the Iberian Peninsula, which covers an area of ​​580,000 square kilometers. "

"Are you going to destroy me?"

"Even if you don't think I am your brother, I have no intention of destroying you."

"The Iberian Peninsula is my territory, and now you want to take it away from me. Isn't this just an attempt to eliminate me?"

Roy shook his head and said.

"Xiana! Even if you don't have your own territory and patron saint seat, you can continue to exist as a lower god worshiped by the Athenian Empire. But it is very likely that you will become the Athenian Empire, or even the weakest moon goddess in the world."

"Then you might as well just eliminate me."

Shana said through gritted teeth.

"Let me live and endure endless humiliation. Is this your punishment for me?"

Roy shook his head and said.

"Xia Na, I have no intention of humiliating you. If you become the weakest moon goddess in the world in the future, it will be entirely the result of your choices. Do you want me to be willing to humble myself, even if you don't regard me as your brother? , I also want to treat you as my sister and give you a huge territory and authority?"

Shana was immediately speechless and didn't know how to refute.

After a while——

Shana lowered her head in shame and said.

"Brother—brother! I admit that you are my brother, please don't take away my territory."

Seeing that the moon goddess Shana finally lowered her arrogant little head in the face of the humiliating reality, Roy stretched out his right hand and pressed it on Shana's little head, jokingly teasing while using the head-touch to kill.

"Of course, no problem! Since my dear sister made the request, from now on you will be the moon goddess of the Iberian Peninsula of the Athenian Empire. If you can please me, my brother will not mind letting you have greater territory and authority."

Roy now replaced Oronzaro as the sun god worshiped by the Aryans of the Iberian Peninsula.

the next day.

Roy then issued an oracle to the priests of Oronzaro, asking the Aryans of the Iberian Peninsula to surrender to the Athenian Empire.

Kuyerebus, Busgasus, and Khrisug also issued oracles to their priests, allowing the various tribes of the Iberians to accept the rule of the Athenian Empire.

1597.

November.

On the day when Roy teleported back to Athens from the Iberian Peninsula, Athens had a rare light snowfall.

Acropolis of Athens.

Temple of the Sun.

Roy walked out of the temple dedicated to himself and saw the Temple of Metis next to him. Roy couldn't help but walk in.

Temple of Metis.

Walking to the center of the rebuilt and magnificent Temple of Metis, looking at the statue of Metis, Roy couldn't help but recall the first day he came to this world and the first time he met Metis.

"Four years!"

Walking in front of the statue of Metis, Roy reached out and touched the feet of the statue of Metis and said.

"In another month, I will have been in this world for four years. If I hadn't met you, I might have drowned in the sea on the first day I came to this world."

"So you still remember that I saved you."

Accompanied by the goddess's cold voice, the statue of Metis on the throne turned into Metis herself.

The stone foot of the statue that Roy held also turned into the little feet of Metis.

After meeting Metis's angry eyes, Roy smiled brightly and said.

"I will never forget the day you saved me, because that was the day I fell in love with you at first sight."

"Enough!"

Metis said angrily.

"Are you fooling me? You keep saying you love me, but your performance proves that you really love Alina, or Persephone. I won't believe your lies, you don't love me at all."

"If I can prove that I love you, will you marry me?"

"How do you want to prove it?"

"I will let you have a territory and authority that is not inferior to Alina and Persephone, proving that my love for you is not inferior to any goddess."

Metis showed a hesitant and struggling expression on her face.

Finally, she gritted her teeth and sneered.

"Then prove it, let me have tens of millions of square kilometers of territory and authority."
