I was a priest in the city-state era

Below the oval plateau where the Theban tribe is located, there is a forest spreading from Mount Helicon.

After Harmonia and Roy left the Thebes tribe, they walked straight down the high ground and into the woods with sprouting green leaves.

Roy followed closely behind Harmonia, admiring Harmonia's beautiful back figure while comparing the blonde beauty Harmonia with the white-haired beauty Chione.

"Although Harmonia and Chione are equally beautiful in appearance, Harmonia's force can crush Chione. Because as a priest of the earth goddess, Harmonia has the earth goddess The divine power given to her strengthens her body. If Chione becomes a priestess serving the gods in the future and receives the divine power to strengthen her body, perhaps Chione's martial arts can grow to the same level as Harmonia. "

Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!

When Roy followed Harmonia to the center of the woods, a pond-sized spring appeared in front of them.

The sound of rushing water that Roy heard was the sound of spring water originating from the forest of Mount Helicon, flowing through the layers of shrubs and flowing into the spring.

To the east of this spring, there is an altar made of stones. There are two wooden spears stuck on both sides of the altar, as if to warn people who want to approach the altar.

"Here we are!"

Harmonia led Roy towards the altar and said.

"This is the open-air temple of the goddess Mnemosyne."

After hearing what Harmonia said, Roy couldn't help but say.

"Priest Harmonia, this altar is facing the water spring in front. This is not like an altar dedicated to the earth goddess, but more like an altar dedicated to the water spring goddess."

"Priest Roy, do you think that the goddess Mnemosyne's deity is only the goddess of the earth?"

Harmonia walked to the altar and turned around, looking at Roy with a smile and said.

"The earth goddess is the most important deity of the goddess Mnemosyne. In addition to the deity of the earth goddess, the goddess Mnemosyne is also the goddess of water springs that provides water of life for us Thebans, and the goddess of animal husbandry who protects shepherds in the mountains and forests. , the goddess of memory who is in charge of memory, the goddess of time who predicts the future, and the muse who can sing and dance. In addition to these, there are many gods belonging to the goddess Mnemosyne. I will not name them one by one. "

Roy said with his eyes widened in surprise.

"Earth and water are two completely different substances. How can the goddess Mnemosyne be the goddess of the earth and the goddess of springs at the same time? She has annexed the goddess of springs - not only the goddess of springs, but also the many gods you just mentioned. The goddess Mnemosyne must have annexed them from other gods!”

"The goddess Mnemosyne has been protecting us Thebans for thousands of years. Of course the other gods in the Thebes area have been annexed by the goddess Mnemosyne! Could it be that the goddess Metis you serve has not Have you ever annexed other gods?”

"The goddess Metis is still a new god! But in the future, the goddess Metis will also annex all other gods in the Attica Peninsula."

After speaking, Roy thought of the dew goddess Procne and the field goddess Philomela who were deified into goddesses.

If there are no accidents, not only the dew goddess and the field goddess will become the gods annexed by the goddess Metis, but even the names of Procne and Philomela will be annexed by the goddess Metis and become the goddess Metis. One of many names to have.

"Priest Roy, now we worship devoutly and pray for the goddess Mnemosyne to come!"

After Harmonia turned around and knelt down facing the altar, Roy's legs were as stiff as stones and he had no intention of kneeling down.

When she noticed that Roy didn't kneel down to worship, Harmonia showed a worried expression.

Because Roy's disrespectful behavior towards the gods is likely to anger the goddess Mnemosyne, causing the goddess Mnemosyne to be unwilling to come.

"Priest Roy, even if you are a priest of other gods, you should respect the goddess Mnemosyne."

But I didn’t kneel down in front of the goddess Metis——

Just when Roy was hesitating whether to let his knees soften a little, a huge figure about ten meters tall came over from Mount Helicon. It was the black-haired goddess that Roy saw yesterday - the guardian of Thebes. The regional earth goddess Mnemosyne.

The body of the goddess Mnemosyne seemed to be able to walk directly through the woods. She walked down from Mount Helicon with silent steps and soon came to the spring.

Under Roy's dull gaze, the goddess Mnemosyne walked up to Harmonia and sat on the highest stone of the altar.

Although Harmonia is the priestess of the goddess Mnemosyne, she seems to be unable to see the figure of the goddess Mnemosyne and turns a blind eye to the goddess Mnemosyne sitting in front of her.

It was not until the black divine light bloomed from the goddess Mnemosyne that Harmonia saw the goddess Mnemosyne sitting on the altar in front of her, worshiping with an expression of surprise and joy on her face.

"Great Earth Goddess Mnemosyne, thank you for coming in response to my prayers. I seem to have fallen in love with Priest Loy, so I hope that you will serve as a witness and let me and Priest Loy enter into a sacred marriage contract in front of you."

"Poor Harmonia! Even I didn't expect that the first victim would be you."

The goddess Mnemosyne, who was sitting on the altar, said with a faint smile.

"You are my darling. Of course I can't let you be bewitched by Aphrodite's curse, so I want to help you return to normal."

After saying that, Mnemosyne extended her right index finger and pressed it on the center of Harmonia's forehead.

As a black divine power was injected into Harmonia's forehead, Harmonia opened her eyes wide as if she had just woken up from a dream, and murmured with a puzzled expression on her face.

"What happened to me? I shamelessly proposed to a man to marry me..."

Seeing Harmonia return to normal, Mnemosyne looked at Roy and said.

"If I hadn't interfered, Harmonia would have married you and given you everything she had. Now I'm ruining your good thing, will you resent me?"

Roy shook his head immediately and said.

"I don't want to marry Harmonia's priest when she is abnormal. Goddess Mnemosyne, what is the reason why Harmonia's priest has become abnormal?"

"No!"

Mnemosyne said with a playful smile.

"You are wrong! It's not Harmonia who is abnormal, but you."

"I am the abnormal one?"

Seeing Roy's unbelievable expression, Mnemosyne said with dissatisfaction.

"You are such a slow-witted fellow. Haven't you noticed yet? Yesterday, you interfered in the battle between Harmonia and Cadmus, which not only changed the outcome of the battle between Harmonia and Cadmus, but also changed the outcome between Aphrodite and me. In order to avenge you, Aphrodite gave you a blessing. It is precisely because you have Aphrodite's blessing that Harmonia could not help but fall in love with you and even offered to marry you."
