Chapter 179: Once Again Arriving at the Island of Yubia

The day after he was crowned king of Thebes, Roy took a boat from the Asopas River to the Okalia tribe in the middle of the island of Eubia.

In addition to Roy and a dozen Theban sailors on the ship, Roy was also accompanied by Iole, the daughter of Melanius, the leader of the Okalia tribe.

Yiole is a thirteen-year-old beautiful girl. She is not only the little princess of the Okalia tribe, but also a trainee priestess trained by Harmonia herself.

When Harmonia marries Roy and loses her virginity, Iole will become the highest priestess of the goddess Mnemosyne.

At this time, on the fast-sailing large ship, Roy stood on the deck of the bow, admiring the scenery on both sides of the Asopas River.

At some point, Yiole also left the cabin and came outside, looking at everything around her with her beautiful, curious eyes.

Roy turned around to take a closer look, and saw that Yiole was taller and more graceful than her peers. She was wearing a pure white cotton robe, with a gold-dyed cotton belt tied around her waist, and a pair of fair ankles. Wear strappy sandals made of cotton.

Perhaps to imitate Harmonia, Iol also tied her beautiful long black hair into a single ponytail with a white hairband.

Living in a strange environment and among a group of strangers, Yiole seemed shy and introverted.

Sensing Roy's gaze, Yi'ele turned around and bowed his head to Roy, saluting, and said in a soft and sweet voice.

"Uncle Roy, can I stay outside?"

Uncle Roy——

Hearing Yi'ele call him, Roy felt as if he had aged ten years.

"Sister Yiole, shouldn't you call me Onii-chan - Brother Roy? Although I am seven years older than you, I am not old enough to be a brother to your father Melanius. !”

Yi'ele explained with an innocent expression on her childish and innocent face.

"I am the disciple of the Harmonian priest, and you are her fiancé. It is only right for me to treat you and the Harmonian priest as the same generation as my parents!"

As a disciple of Harmonia, Yiole should indeed regard Roy and Harmonia as their elders like master and mistress.

Looking at Yi'ele's beautiful and cute little face, Roy said helplessly.

"Sister Yiole! Before I marry Harmonia, I hope you can call me brother. After I marry Harmonia, you can change my name to Uncle Roy."

Yi'ele nodded obediently and said.

"I know, Uncle Roy - Brother Roy."

Roy and Yiole took a big boat down the river and arrived at the port of the Okalia tribe in only four hours.

Melanius, the leader of the Okalia tribe, received the news and came to the port in person to greet Roy and Iol.

On the way from the port of Okalia to the Okalia tribe, Roy and Iole saw Melanius coming towards them. Iole immediately shouted with joy and rushed towards Melanius. .

"Father!"

"Iol!"

Melanius and Iol hugged each other, and asked their daughter excitedly and with tears.

"My beloved daughter, how are you doing during the time we are apart?"

"I'm doing well and the Harmonian priests take care of me like a sister."

Yiole said with tears.

"How are your father, mother and brothers doing?"

"Silly girl, of course we have a good life."

Looking at the scene of Iol and Melanius being a loving father and daughter, Roy couldn't help but feel that in order to marry him, Harmonia took Iol away from her family and became her successor. It was indeed true. It's a bit too much.

It would be fine if Harmonia really wanted Iol to become the highest priestess of the goddess Mnemosyne.

Unfortunately, in reality, Harmonia just wanted Iol to be a puppet in name only.

Even if Iol becomes the successor, the power belonging to the High Priestess will continue to be in the hands of Harmonia.

When Harmonia gives birth to a daughter, she will abolish Iol's identity and let her daughter have the identity and power of the highest priestess.

Yiole and Melanius hugged each other for a while, and Melanius pulled Yiole to Roy and said.

"Great King of Thebes, thank you and the Harmonian priests for taking care of Iol during this time."

"Melanius, it seems you already know that I have been crowned King of Thebes."

Roy said with a smile.

"The Kingdom of Athens that I rule not only includes the Attica Peninsula and Thebes, but the island of Eubia is also an integral part of the Kingdom of Athens. Now I appoint you as the governor of Okaria and give you jurisdiction over all the islands of Eubia. the power of the Beans, and allow you to build the city of Okaria.”

"Governor of Okalia..."

Melanius said with uncontrollable excitement.

"Your Majesty Roy, can I pass on my status as governor to my son?"

"No! The status of governor is neither life-long nor hereditary. You only have one three-year term. After three years, I will appoint someone else to be the new governor of Okalia. In my Kingdom of Athens, only members of the royal family can Hold tenure and hereditary positions.”

"That means that if my daughter Yiole marries Your Majesty, I will be the governor of Okalia for life, and I can even pass on my status as governor to my son?"

Roy immediately glared at Melanius and said.

"Theoretically, that's the case, but you can't say this in front of Yiole, because children will have random thoughts."

Melanius looked down at his daughter, whose face was blushing, and then said with a serious face.

"Your Majesty, I will certainly not sell my daughter for power and wealth. Iole's happiness is more important to me than power and wealth."

In the myth of another world, Iole's father would rather become an enemy with the demigod hero Hercules than marry his daughter Iole to the so-called hero who killed his child in madness and gave his wife to his friend. It can be seen that Iole's father really values ​​his daughter's happiness.

Seeing thick smoke floating at the foot of a mountain in the distance, Roy took the initiative to ask Melanius.

"Melanius, are my followers smelting bronze weapons there?"

Melanius nodded and said.

"Your Majesty, do you want to visit your followers first, or go to our Okaria tribe first?"

"I want to visit my followers first, you lead the way for me!"

Under the leadership of Melanius, Roy and Iole soon came to the place where Roy's Phoenician followers lived.

It can be seen that this was originally a forest at the foot of the mountain.

Now the trees have been cut down on a large scale, and turned into wooden houses for Roy's Phoenician followers to live in, and also as fuel for smelting bronze weapons.

About two hundred wooden houses form a small village, and in the center of the village stands a blast furnace for smelting copper ore. At this time, Taurus and dozens of Phoenicians are busy, some adding firewood to the blast furnace to melt copper ore, and some pouring molten copper into molds to make bronze spear blades.

"Taurus!"

Roy took the initiative to call Taurus's name. Taurus turned around and saw Roy, and immediately widened his eyes and showed an incredible expression.

"Priest Roy, am I dreaming about you again?"
