To be king [Greek mythology]

Puth was as expected swift and excellent.

Minos was seldom so embarrassed.

His embarrassment also made Thurpus's thoughts especially strong this time-not to mention that Typhon's Fang should have belonged to Minos, Thurpus thought.

He looked down at the animal tooth hanging around his neck for more than eight years.

It is also the root of his successful life to this day.

The Typhon's tooth in his hand was smooth and white, and the tendon of Typhon passing through that tooth did not emit a red shimmer when it was first held in his hand, it had become completely black, just like an ordinary rope.

But it's still tough and resilient.

Thurpus put the animal tooth on Minos' chest, closed his eyes, and slowly, slowly let go.

The severe pain in his abdomen hit him instantly, but the special suffocation that followed made his eyes widen.

He was falling—the breath of death followed.

Thurps felt that the world in his eyes had turned into a mess of colors, and then stayed on the surface of the water after the waves were distorted, leaking into the sunlight under the water.

Warm and quiet.

The surrounding seawater was stained red.

Thurps knew it was overflowing from his body.

The sea water kept coming from all directions, but there was no feeling of squeeze.

Thurps finally reacted.

He is still in the Temple of Poseidon, the previous docking is fake, Minos is fake, priests and warriors are fake.

He was pitted by Poseidon.

Didn't he just say a few bad words and kill him.

...is simply a beast.

Thurps struggled, but without the protection of Typhon's Fang, he could only keep falling.

The surface of the water stirred up violent splashes.

Surpus saw Minos with a terrified face in the white foam, and quickly approached him.

Thurps blinked tiredly.

He felt the God of Death spread his arms behind him, and was already very close to him.

That breath felt familiar to him, he seemed to feel it often - but now he couldn't remember it.

Thurps closed his eyes in a daze.

Minos opened his eyes in panic, watching the sea water stained with blood, and he was still so far away from Surpus.

As soon as he woke up from the environment of the Sea God Temple, he saw Thurpus beside him, and the Typhon's Fang hanging from his neck was removed. Slipped from his hand and fell into the sea.

And Thurps was directly connected to the ship he was riding on and fell into the sea as if falling from the sky.

Minos was caught off guard, but without any hesitation, he grabbed Typhon's Fang floating on the sea, put it on the boat, and jumped into the sea by himself.

He didn't even think about how he should get to the shore by then.

Just a little bit away—only a little bit away.

Minos watched Thurpus close his eyes, feeling his mind go blank.

In these years, Thurpus has lived very safely except for Radamandis reaching out to the Typhon's fang on Surpus' neck.

Thurps also knows how to protect himself quite well. Minos has almost eliminated the possibility of "Thurps will die" from his considerations due to his safe life these years. Compared with this probability, it is extremely small He is more concerned about how to keep Thurps, who has begun to consider gathering his strength in the past two years, to stay in Crete.

Some of Crete's slaves were formerly the subjects of Syreis.

Thurps' actions did not escape the eyes and ears of the King of Crete and Minos, but the King of Crete has gradually transferred all affairs to Minos, and Minos chose to choose Surpus' actions. Open one eye and close one eye.

He pretended not to see it.

But now, to his surprise, Thurps was going to die.

Minos almost felt the breath of death lingering around them.

——Just like last time, the sword of death has been hung up.

Underworld.

Death raised his eyebrows and looked down at the sword in his hand. He seemed to have thought about it for a while, but in the end he didn't follow the breath of death.

He glanced at the invisible darkness behind the black curtain, snorted, closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was already in the Temple of Poseidon in the city-state of Crete.

He glanced in the direction of the Sea God Temple, and clicked his tongue lightly.

In the next second, his figure disappeared into the temple.

The appearance of the chief priest made Minos seem to have found a life-saving straw—even though he usually pinches the chief priest quite severely.

The high priest seemed to sense his thoughts, holding Thurpus in his hands, and glanced at Minos with obvious ridicule and sarcasm.

It was short of writing "You are very incompetent" on the face.

Minos didn't care about that much—he felt his falling suddenly stop, and his body was floating up.

The high priest returned to the ship with Thurpus and Minos.

Minos rehung Typhon's Fang around Thurpus' neck.

Seeing Thurpus's complexion gradually recover, he was relieved and raised his head. The boy's face looked extraordinarily beautiful under the sun.

Minos looked at the high priest carefully, finally sighed, and asked, "Which god are you...?"

The high priest glanced at him in surprise, and then quickly resumed his mocking posture, "Surpus discovered it eight years earlier than you."

"..." Minos was silent for a while, "He never told me that."

"Probably he thinks it's unnecessary, or you can't do anything even if he tells you." The chief priest didn't show mercy at all, and laughed, "You're always so powerless, Minos."

"Compared to the gods, my power is always limited." Minos is very calm - his respect for the gods under the teaching of Thurpus is not as strong as others, and Minos is also very clear that he can Recognizing the things he is facing, sometimes the truth is so cruel, but he can face it calmly, "I am powerless, I admit it, but even so I never give up."

"But there's nothing you can do when something happens to him, poor little guy."

"But I can do for him what he hasn't done." Minos looked down at Thurpus.

The power of demigods and humans is always horribly small in the face of gods or other special creatures. As an ordinary human being, Thurpus is extremely insecure in this world ruled by gods, so that he can hardly do anything. Put everything on yourself.

He will assign a large part of the responsibility to Miledus and Minos-so that if he is unlucky and heroic, someone can complete for him what he did not complete.

This is a consensus they reached a long time ago.

"You haven't said which god you are." Minos continued to ask.

"Reaper." The high priest smiled and saw that Minos' expression suddenly became stiff.

"...Why did you..." Minos looked at the body of the chief priest, "became the chief priest?"

"He begged me." The chief priest—or Danadus, he held his chin and looked down at Minos. "He begged me to take care of Crete, which has lost the protection of the gods."

Minos widened his eyes, "The one who protects Crete is Poseidon, the god of the sea."

"Poseidon has abandoned you, but Crete is not the only one." Thanadus smiled and watched Minos's changing face.

"How is it possible..." Minos couldn't react for a while, "Crete has believed in Poseidon since its establishment."

"Because you are the son of Zeus." Thanadus clicked his tongue twice.

Minos managed to calm down, "I can't accept this reason."

"Well, it's actually because Poseidon has put all his wealth in—" Thanadus nodded the forehead of Thurpus, who opened his eyes and stared dazedly, "Surpus once City-state, now Athens."

Thurps looked up at Thanadus, then reacted, sat up suddenly and grabbed Minos, as if he was still in shock.

"You're okay..." Thurps' voice was a little dry.

Minos froze for a moment, then reacted, hugged Surpus with a smile, stroked Surpus' back, "I'm fine."

Thanadus looked at these two people and felt so uncomfortable.

He looked at Thurpus, turned his head and glanced in the direction of Olympus.

"You two." Thanadus stood up, "Do you want to become stronger?"

Thurps and Minosley ignored him.

"The kind that can rival the gods." Thanadus added.

Surpus and Minos turned their heads sharply to look at him.

"Do you know what you're talking about?" Thurpus asked, he felt from the bottom of his heart that the head priest's brain was burned out, "You are also a god."

"I know, but dusk is coming." Danado held his chin, "The time for the gods to sleep is not far away."

"So?" Minos frowned, "What does it have to do with us?"

"After the gods fall asleep, the whole world will fall into darkness." Thanadus said, "There must be someone to guide the direction of the world."

"You don't fit the profile—I mean, the profile of the heroic mentor who saves the world," Minos said.

Yes, obviously a pervert.

Thurps nodded approvingly.

"I'm just completing the task my mother gave me." Thanadus' eyes fell on Thurps, "She said, in the entire universe, you are special."

Thurps caught his breath.

It felt like all the hair on my body exploded.

Chapter 39

Thurps' sudden change of expression made Thanadus, who didn't know the truth, raise his eyebrows.

He knew Thurps existed because of that
