I Was a Priest in the City-State Era

Chapter 301: Opportunity to Destroy the Temple of Amon

Now Nafir has confirmed that the murderer of Yahmose is the Temple of Amun.

Although Ahmose died, Nafir was the biggest beneficiary, but Nafir had no gratitude to the Temple of Amun.

Because Nafir didn't want to lose her only brother after Camos died.

More importantly, what the Temple of Amun did trampled on the authority of the pharaohs.

Now the Temple of Amun can kill Ahmose for their benefit, proving that they can also kill Nefer for the benefit of the Temple of Amun.

"Loy, what do you think I should do next?"

Nafir looked at Roy with pleading eyes and said.

"Now my mind is in chaos and I can no longer make the right choice."

Looking at Nafir who had lost all his brothers, Roy held her tightly in his arms with pity and said while caressing her back with his right hand.

"Nafir, you have three choices now. The first choice is to pretend not to know the truth about Ahmose's murder and return to Thebes, inherit the throne and become the female pharaoh of Thebes. The second choice is like Like your ancestors, go to the city of Itaw and become a female pharaoh, staying away from the city of Thebes and the Temple of Amun. The third option-"

"What's the third option?"

After hearing Nafir's inquiry, Roy said firmly.

"The third option is to avenge Ahmose and destroy the Temple of Amun."

Nafir was so frightened that his whole body trembled and he said in a panic.

"Do you know what you are talking about? You asked me to destroy the Temple of Amon. Do you know that the Temple of Amon is-"

"I know that the Temple of Amon is an ancient temple that has existed for more than a thousand years, longer than your Pharaoh family. Under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible to destroy the Temple of Amun, but we have a great opportunity now. "

Roy said confidently.

"Now the city of Thebes has 85,000 soldiers you brought. This is enough power to suppress the Temple of Amun. Killing your brother Ahemoth in the Temple of Amun is our great cause to suppress the Temple of Amun. status. If we miss this opportunity, even if we have the power to suppress the Amon Temple, there is no legitimate reason to suppress the Amon Temple."

The temples of various city-states in Egypt are almost in a relationship where one is prosperous and the other is depleted.

If you suppress a certain temple without justifiable reasons, you will be hostile to all other temples.

Kill Ahemoth in the Temple of Amun——

This was apparently enough to justify the suppression of the Temple of Amun.

After all, Ahemoth was not only Nefer's brother, but also a pharaoh.

The Temple of Amun is so crazy that even the Pharaoh dares to kill him. The temples of other city-states will never support the Temple of Amun, let alone have any sympathy for the suppression of the Temple of Amun.

"But that is the Temple of Amon after all. If we want to completely break up with them and become enemies -"

Seeing that Nafir could not make up his mind to destroy the Temple of Amon, Roy put his cheek against Nafir's little face and said softly to Nafir like the most affectionate lover.

"Nafel! If you can't make a decision, then let me make the decision for you! You are my woman, and I will not do anything to hurt you, only what is good for us."

Although Nafir is a proud princess, she is also a girl who is only sixteen years old.

After the death of his half-brother Camos, Nafir began to feel dependent on Roy, as if he regarded Roy as Camos's replacement.

Now the death of his half-brother Ahemoth has made Nafir's heart even more fragile.

Under Roy's active emotional offensive, Nafir finally nodded and said.

"Then let you make the decision for me! We are a couple who share everything, so you won't do anything detrimental to us."

After sending Nafir to the carriage, Roy summoned the generals in the name of Nafir and ordered them to prepare to return to Thebes with the soldiers.

After the generals all left, Andromeda, who had been following Roy, suddenly whispered.

"I have been observing you and Nafir these past few days, and now I finally confirm one thing."

After hearing Andromeda's words, Roy looked at her curiously and asked.

"What did you confirm?"

"I've confirmed that your feelings for Nafir are all fake and you don't love her at all."

Andromeda said with a complicated expression.

"When I look at you and Nafir, it's like I see you and me. Since your feelings for Nafir are fake - then of course your feelings for me are also fake. No wonder you are so merciless. Treat me like a slave."

After hearing what Andromeda said, Roy couldn't help but pinch her chin with his right hand and teased.

"Andromeda, are you still an innocent princess who hopes for love? The so-called love is a feeling that only carefree people can consider. For most people in this era, a significant other who can bring them happiness , is the person they really love. If love is unconditional, will a princess with a normal mind fall in love with a lowly slave, be played and humiliated by the male master together with her slave husband, and give birth to a son and daughter who will continue to be a slave? ? If love is conditional, it means that love that can bring you happiness is true love. ”

"What can bring happiness...is the true love..."

Seeing Andromeda repeating her words, Roy smiled and teased.

"And you don't have the ability to read minds, so how do you know whether my feelings are true or false? The person who can really judge whether my feelings are true or false is not you, but Nafel. If Nafel thinks that my feelings for her are true, then my feelings for her are true."

After saying that, Roy left directly.

Andromeda returned to the carriage in a state of dismay. Seeing her appearance, Nafel not only did not blame her, but asked with concern.

"Andromeda, are you feeling unwell?"

Nafel's abnormal reaction did not surprise Andromeda.

Now Nafel is in great sorrow for the deaths of her two brothers, Kamos and Ahmose. If Nafel's reaction is the same as usual, it would be abnormal.

"Princess Nafel! I want to tell you that Roy is using you to do what he wants. Do you really not see it?"

Hearing Andromeda's words, Nafel was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said.

"I believe in Roy! Maybe you can't understand, but when Roy hugged me, I could even feel his heartbeat. I know Roy really cares about me, and I know he would never do anything to hurt me. Even if he really uses me to do what he wants, it is his legitimate right. After all, husband and wife are family members who take care of each other. I have never thought of asking Roy to pay me unilaterally."

The Pharaoh royal family has a tradition of intermarriage, and husband and wife are really blood-related family members.

So Nafel really treats Roy as a family member like his own brother.

After listening to Nafel's words, Andromeda couldn't help but think of the memory of being held in Roy's arms.

What she felt at that time - was Roy's feelings for her true or false?

Thinking of the happiness and joy at that time, tears flowed from Andromeda's eyes.

Some things, you really only know how to cherish them when you lose them.
