Reversing Greek Mythology

Chapter 63 Chryses wants to redeem his daughter

When one-seventh of the light godhead is unsealed, Thetis will regard herself as Circe's brother.

Now that two-sevenths of the light godhead is unsealed, Thetis will of course regard herself more as Phaethon, who had the light godhead in the past.

Luo Yin was too lazy to explain his identity to Thetis again, so he gently held Thetis in his arms with both hands and said.

"Based on our relationship, I will no longer say thank you to you. Now I want to return to the palace on Mount Ada, and you should also return to your underwater palace!"

"No - I want to be with you!"

Thetis said without hesitation.

"Now... there is no other goddess around you. This is a rare opportunity. I want to take care of you like a wife. Even if the hope is slim, I want to get more love from you and become your most important wife."

"In other words, you want to be my head wife? It seems that not only human girls, but also goddesses will value their husband's position as a head wife."

Luo Yin leaned over and picked up Thetis in a princess hug, and said while holding her in his arms and turning towards Mount Ada.

"Polyxena is the Trojan princess who is served by others, and Chryseines is the daughter of the high priest who is served by others. Compared with the two of them, your loving service satisfies my body and mind more. "

Hearing Luo Yin's praise, Thetis hid her blushing face in Luo Yin's arms and said.

"Not just ordinary service... I will also work hard at night service... If they find out, they will definitely complain that I am a sneaky cat..."

While Luo Yin was holding Thetis and leaving the coast, a small boat sailed over from the Gulf of Missia and headed for a place where they could land.

When the boat docked, an old man wearing a priest's robe came to the shore holding a golden staff of peace wrapped with an olive branch, and led a servant holding a box toward the Greek coalition camp.

Agamemnon's barracks.

Agamemnon and the princes were feasting happily, as if the winter was over and they could easily conquer the city of Troy and the coast of the Asia Minor peninsula.

Just then, Palamedes entered the barracks with an old man and his servant.

Seeing the old man wearing the high priest's robe, the princes immediately stopped their feast and looked at the high priest solemnly.

Because among all the priests of the god, the high priest has a distinguished status and can even be regarded as the spokesperson of the god.

"Dear High Priest, you came to our barracks to represent your gods and ask us to offer sacrifices to the gods for sacrifice?"

Hearing Agamemnon's inquiry, the old priest shook his head and said.

"Great son of Atreus! I am Chryses, priest of Apollo. I do not come to you today on behalf of the gods. Achilles, the barbarian and disrespectful god, snatched my gift from the temple of Apollo. Daughter Chryseins, I come to your camp today with a large ransom, hoping that you will return my daughter to me.”

After speaking, Chryses motioned to the servants beside him to open the box in his hands and show Agamemnon and the princes the gold, silver and jewels in the box.

Looking at the ransom brought by Chryses, Agamemnon frowned and said.

"Dear Chryses, you are the high priest of Apollo, so your daughter Chryses has a noble status that is not inferior to that of a princess. Although you brought a lot of ransom, we cannot agree with you. Require."

Ajax also mocked Chryses.

"Achilles may have become the husband of your daughter Chryseins. If you come to redeem her now, you are destroying your daughter's lifelong happiness."

Chryses said with an ugly expression.

"If Achilles is willing to hold a wedding for Chryseines and become her husband, I am willing to give all my wealth to Achilles as a dowry. But I know how arrogant you Greeks are, you will never Let the barbarian's daughter be your wife. For the sake of her lifelong happiness, I must rescue her from Achilles."

"Then you go to negotiate with Achilles! Achilles has withdrawn from the coalition. Even if I, the commander-in-chief, agree to your request, Achilles will not return his daughter to you."

"Son of Atreus, if you don't put pressure on Achilles, how do you know that Achilles will refuse your order? If you don't return my daughter to me, I will pray to Apollo who I serve Help, let the gods help me save my daughter.”

After saying these threatening words, Chryses turned around and left the barracks with his servants.

Watching Chryses leave, Agamemnon and the princes did not take his threat to heart.

Luo Yin carried Thetis back to the palace on Mount Edda, and saw Menstius commanding the soldiers and building barracks outside the palace with wood and stones.

Luo Yin frowned and said after seeing many rats running around after the ground was dug up.

"Menstius, you personally go to Troy to buy some cats that can catch mice, and get rid of all the mice near the camp. Also - you want all the soldiers to drink hot water, eat cooked food, and even take a bath. Also use hot water for bathing.”

Hearing these requests from Luo Yin, Mengsteos widened his eyes in surprise and said.

"Uncle Achilles, do we need to be so nice to our soldiers?"

"If we were fighting in mainland Greece, of course there would be no need to do this, but this is Asia Minor."

Luo Yin patiently explained to Mengsteos.

"We are not immune to many diseases in this area. Rats and raw water are just the vectors that can spread these diseases. If you don't follow my instructions, many of our soldiers will die from the plague."

After saying that, Luo Yin carried Thetis into the palace.

In the hall where Polyxena and Chryseins were, Luo Yin came here and put down Thetis and said.

"Thetis, if you want to live with them from now on, can you let them see you?"

"sure!"

Thetis smiled slightly, and a blue divine power emitted from her body filled the surrounding space.

When Polyxena and Chryseins came into contact with Thetis's divine power, they immediately widened their eyes and saw a beautiful and sacred goddess standing next to Luo Yin.

"goddess--"

Out of human instinct to fear gods, Polyxena and Chryseins immediately lowered their heads in fear.

Seeing their exaggerated reactions of fearing the gods, Luo Yin immediately explained.

"You don't have to be afraid. She is here to serve me just like you. You can treat her as the head maid from now on."

Thetis also said to them with a kind smile.

"Let me introduce to you, my name is Thetis. Because you will not be my competitor, I will take care of you, and I will not punish you even if you make mistakes."

"Thetis—are you the mother goddess of Achilles?"

After Chryseins revealed Thetis's identity, Polyxena couldn't help but complain in her heart.

"You already have us, and you still can't do without your mother's care?"

Outside the Greek coalition camp.

Chryses raised his hands to the sky and prayed.

"Apollo! You are the most powerful god in this area. Seeing that I have served you for many years, please help me punish the Greeks and force them to return their daughters to me!"

Apollo heard Chryses' plea.

After nightfall, Apollo flew over the coalition camp and shot poisonous golden arrows at the soldiers in the coalition camp.

After spreading enough plague seeds in the coalition camp, Apollo flew to Mount Ada and prepared to use poisonous golden arrows to spread the plague among Luo Yin's soldiers.

But after Apollo bent his bow and set up an arrow, he was surprised to find that all the mice in Luo Yin's soldier camp had been hunted down by cats.
