Chapter 114 Peleus and Priam

Luo Yin carried Thetis in a princess hug and walked down Mount Pelion step by step, and then walked towards the coast of the Aegean Sea step by step.

When the sun set at the end of the sky and the moon goddess Selene drove the moon chariot to spread the moonlight, Luo Yin was still on the road to send Thetis back to the Aegean Sea.

When the light of dawn dyed the eastern sky red, Luo Yin finally came to the coast of the Aegean Sea with Thetis in his arms.

Walking into the shallow water area of ​​the beach, Luo Yin reluctantly put Thetis' body into the sea and said.

"Now you can return to your domain."

With her body soaked in the sea water, Thetis finally breathed a sigh of relief. While absorbing the endless power of the sea to restore her divine power, she said to Luo Yin.

"You didn't bully me when I was weak, and you helped me return to the sea. I really don't know how to thank you. But I can't accept your love just because of your help."

"I didn't think about asking you to repay me."

Looking at Thetis who hid her body below the neck in the sea water, Luo Yin said with a smile.

"I know you've fallen in love with another man. It's enough for me to be able to honestly tell you my feelings for you. Now I'm going to do other things. You should go back to the deep sea soon!"

"I didn't fall in love with that other person--"

After explaining doubtfully, Thetis swam towards the deep sea with mixed feelings.

She and Luo Yin were strangers who met for the first time, but for some reason, she felt reluctant to part with Luo Yin.

Looking back at Luo Yin's figure walking towards the beach, Thetis dived directly into the deep sea at a great speed.

Just as Thetis was about to enter an underwater palace belonging to the goddess of the sea, as her divine power was fully restored, a torrent of memories emerged in her mind.

Thetis immediately stopped at the entrance of the underwater palace and said with shame.

"I was actually seen in such an embarrassing state by him, and I didn't recognize him and couldn't respond to his feelings--"

After a little hesitation in her heart, Thetis immediately returned to the beach where Luo Yin sent her into the sea.

Unfortunately, when Thetis returned to the beach, Luo Yin had already left.

Iolcus.

Entering the city ruled by Peleus, Luo Yin came to the outside of the palace and saw a wedding being held here witnessed by gods, nobles and civilians.

What surprised Luo Yin was that the hero of the wedding was Priam, and the heroine was Princess Polydora, the daughter of Peleus, the king of Iolcus.

When Priam and Polydora finished the wedding ceremony, just as they were about to accept the blessings and gifts from the guests, Luo Yin came to Priam and said.

"Priam, I came to save you at the request of your sister Hesione! Although I will not send you back to Troyen, I can let Peleus return your freedom, and then you can find a way to return to Troyen by yourself."

"Return to Troyen--"

Hearing Luo Yin's words, Priam, with a complicated expression, smiled helplessly.

"If you had shown up before the wedding was complete, I would have chosen to return to my hometown. Now that the wedding is complete, as Polydora's husband, how could I abandon my wife and my father-in-law and mother-in-law and return to my hometown!"

The beautiful Princess Polydora seemed to have a sense of crisis, and she hugged Priam's right arm tightly with both hands.

Priam said to Polydora with a reassuring smile.

"Stranger! I am very grateful that you came to save me, but I can't leave here. Because my father-in-law Peleus usurped the throne by killing the previous king Acastus. When Acastus' sons grow up, they will definitely take revenge and regain the throne, so I must stay to protect my wife Polydora and my father-in-law Peleus who is about to age."

Luo Yin nodded and said.

"Then when I see Hesione in the future, I will tell her that you have married here and must stay in Iolcas for your family."

"Please also tell my sister that I hope she will inherit the throne and become the queen of Troy."

"Hesione has become the queen of Troy with the support of the elders and nobles."

After telling Priam about the current situation of Troy, Troy turned and walked towards the port outside the city.

Looking at the back of Troy leaving, Peleus breathed a sigh of relief, then came to Priam and said.

"Dear Priam, you really didn't let me down."

After saying that, he touched Priam's back with an ambiguous gesture.

Priam seemed not to notice Peleus's actions, and looked at Polydora's belly with an emotionless look.

Although the Thessaly region is now ruled by the Greeks, as long as he gives birth to enough sons, the Thessaly region can be ruled by the Troyens.

As a way to retaliate against Peleus, he could have kept a few more lovers, making Polydora, Peleus' only daughter, feel miserable, and giving birth to more sons for himself.

Luo Yin certainly would not have thought that the purpose of Priam's choice to stay was to allow the Greek mainland to have a Trojan-ruled area.

After joining his fleet at the port, Luo Yin commanded six warships to leave the port and prepare to return to Tiryns.

Iolcas is located in the north of Eubia.

When Luo Yin's fleet sailed south from the east of Eubia, a thick smoke from Eubia attracted Luo Yin's attention.

Luo Yin looked towards the smoke and saw a group of soldiers from the Argos region looting a city whose gates had been broken.

In the era of city-states, wars between city-states were common.

Although he was surprised that the soldiers from the Argos region were on an expedition to the city-states north of Eubia Island, Luo Yin quickly withdrew his curiosity.

When Luo Yin's fleet passed through the strait south of Eubia Island, it caught up with a fleet carrying captives and spoils.

Seeing a beautiful girl wearing a gorgeous dress and a slave collar on her neck looking at Eubia Island with tears in her eyes at the stern of the fleet's flagship, Luo Yin asked curiously.

"When I passed by the north of Eubia Island, I saw a city being looted. Could that city be your hometown?"

Hearing Luo Yin's words, the girl cried even more sadly, and tears as big as beans kept sliding down her cheeks.

The girl didn't say anything to Luo Yin until her tears dried up.

"Stranger! The city you see is my beautiful hometown, Oechalia. I am Inoe, the daughter of King Eurytus of Oechalia, a woman burdened with sin who should not have been born. When I was a young girl, my father Eurytus wanted to choose a strong husband for me and held a marriage proposal contest. At that time, Hercules killed the children born to him by his wife Megara in madness and ended his marriage to Megara. In order to find a new wife, Hercules participated in the marriage proposal contest held by his father for me and became the champion of the contest. My father did not want to marry me to Hercules, so he incurred Hercules' resentment towards our family. He killed my brother Inphitus at that time, but he did not expect that he would start a war now and kill my father and all my brothers. I am really a sinful woman. If I had not taken action in this world, perhaps my father and brothers would not have died."
