I Was a Priest in the City-State Era

Chapter 559: King Ashura and Demon Ancestor Rāhu

In the history of another world, the Aryans and Vedic people who worshipped the god of thunder invaded the Indus Plain in full force around 1600 BC.

This period is also called the Vedic Age and the Age of Perfection.

This is the era when the god of thunder Indra [Zeus] became the king of gods, and the five-headed Brahma of Indra became the god of creation.

Around 1000 BC, the Aryans and ancient Persians who worshipped the sun god invaded the Indian region with iron weapons, and launched a dimensionality reduction attack on the Vedic people and the indigenous Dravidians.

The sun god Vishnu was promoted from an unknown minor god in the Vedic Age to the supreme creator god, and was called the three-phase god together with the Brahma of the Vedic people and the Shiva of the Dravidian people.

This era is called the post-Vedic Age and the Three-phase Age.

Now, because the Athenian Empire conquered the Persian Plateau, the Aryans and ancient Persians who worshipped the sun god invaded the Indian region six hundred years earlier, resulting in the Shesha Kingdom in the north of the Indus Plain being unable to join forces with the Vritra Kingdom and the Rahu Kingdom to deal with the Vedic people.

After Naga and Garuda left, Kali said with a worried look.

"Can Naga fight against the invaders?"

The ancient Persians were more powerful than the Vedic people.

Vishnu, the sun god, was also more powerful than the Vedic gods.

Even if Kali, Durga and Naga joined forces, they might not be able to fight against the Vedic gods.

Naga alone could not fight against Vishnu, the sun god.

Although Roy knew this, he did not say it.

Because it would be useless to say it.

Before defeating the Vedic people, neither Roy nor Kali and Durga could go to the northern part of the Indus Plain to help Naga.

"Kali! Durga! If you are worried about Naga, the only thing we have to do is to defeat the Vedic gods and connect your territory with Naga."

Durga nodded in agreement.

"Now that the Nagas have withdrawn from our alliance, we have to rely more on your power, and you can increase your demands on us."

I want you to marry me--

In the Indian mythology of another world, the goddesses Kali and Durga are the incarnations absorbed by Parvati, the wife of Shiva, and are the supreme goddesses in Indian mythology.

Roy instinctively wanted to seize the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

But the goddesses Kali and Durga have not reached the end of the road, so Roy did not really take advantage of the situation.

"Goddess Durga! If you really want to thank me, give me your priestess Princess Shezhi, so that I can inherit the kingdom of Rahu!"

"This..."

Giving Roy her favorite priestess as a gift is obviously an act of abandoning dignity.

Durga hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and said.

"If Shezhi doesn't object, I will marry her to you."

The Vedic people have an army of 100,000, and they are brave cavalry.

The kingdoms of Vritra and Rahu combined have only 50,000 troops, and they are mainly infantry.

Without Roy's 50,000 knights, the Kingdom of Vritra and the Kingdom of Rahu would not be able to defeat the Vedic people, and the goddesses Kali and Durga would not be able to defeat the Vedic gods.

Once they lost the war with the Vedic gods, the goddesses Kali and Durga would definitely become captives of the Vedic gods and suffer all kinds of humiliation.

Compared with this terrible consequence, Durga could certainly accept giving the priestess Shezhi as a gift to Roy.

After reaching a cooperation with the goddesses Kali and Durga, Roy immediately returned to Vritra City.

Vritra City.

At this time, Rahu, the king of the Rahu Kingdom, had come here with his daughter Princess Shezhi and 30,000 troops.

A lively banquet to welcome Rahu was being held in the palace hall of Vritra.

When Roy arrived at the palace and walked into the hall, he saw the Vritra family and the Rahu family sitting around a table, surrounded by musicians playing music and dancers performing graceful songs and dances.

As the protagonist of the banquet, Rahu is a middle-aged man with a white face and no beard, who looks only about 30 years old.

In the Indian mythology of another world, Rahu is a demon with four hands and a snake tail below the waist.

Rahu has a half-human and half-snake figure, which proves that he, like Vritra, is a human king who serves the goddess of the earth and is degraded in the myth and becomes the Asura king destroyed by the thunder god Indra [Zeus].

And Rahu, like Vritra, is the father-in-law of Indra [Zeus].

Vritra's daughter Yueyi became Indra's consort after Vritra was defeated.

Rahu's daughter Shezhi also became Indra's consort after Rahu was defeated.

In the Shenzhou continent of another world, this human king in the ancient Indian region was deified as an existence equal to the Supreme God.

Yama, the death god of the Indian region, came to the Shenzhou continent and became the King of Yama who controls the six reincarnations.

The human king of India came to the Shenzhou Continent and became the Demon Ancestor Rahu, who was equal to the Supreme God.

Just as Roy was observing the famous Demon Ancestor Rahu, Rahu noticed Roy's rude gaze and said with a somewhat unhappy expression.

"Dear Vrito, who is this young man?"

"He is our reliable ally, the Athenian emperor with 50,000 knights."

Vrito immediately introduced.

"In the far west, he established a huge empire with a population of tens of millions. Even the Aryans invaded India because he defeated the Aryans on the Persian Plateau, forcing the Aryans to migrate eastward."

"Tens of millions of people--"

Rahu obviously didn't take this seriously.

Because in this era, kingdoms with a population of millions were just nominally integrated city-state alliances.

Roy walked to Princess Yueyi and sat down opposite Rahu's daughter Princess Shezhi and said.

"King Rahu! Princess Shezhi! I have heard of you for a long time and I am very happy to meet you."

In the mythology of another world, Rahu is the famous Asura King and Demon Ancestor, and Shezhi, as the wife of Indra, is also an extremely beautiful goddess.

In the mythology, Shezhi is indeed very beautiful, and it can be said that there are very few beauties like that in the world.

After being spotted by Indra, he asked to marry her by force, which angered King Asura, and King Asura went to attack Indra.

But Indra was so powerful and cunning that King Asura was defeated and had to watch his daughter being snatched away.

Roy didn't care about Rahu's attitude and said directly to Vritra.

"King Vritra, I have bad news for you now. Because the Aryans who worship the sun god invaded the northern part of the Indus Plain, the Shesha Kingdom can no longer join forces with us to attack the Vedic people."

Upon hearing this news, Vritra and Rahu's faces changed drastically at the same time.

With the joint efforts of the Vritra Kingdom, Rahu Kingdom, and Shesha Kingdom, their number of soldiers was not inferior to that of the Vedic people, and Roy's 50,000 troops were dispensable to them.

Now that the Shesha Kingdom has not joined the war, Roy's 50,000 troops have become crucial.

Seeing the reactions of Vritra and Rahu, Roy continued.

"Although the Vedic people are our common enemies, in this war, the coalition forces of the Vritra Kingdom and the Rahu Kingdom are 50,000 infantry, and my 50,000 cavalry are the main force to defeat the Vedic people."
