Chapter 136 – The Prophet Appears

Once this news came out, the entire country was in jubilation. A lot of people were discussing this mystery man who was going to marry the Queen. Since he was able to defeat the fearsome Silo, he must be an Immortal who has descended to this realm.

Lei Yu was still sitting in the palace bed chambers in a daze. A whole bunch of people carrying large and small trays started to enter the chambers while the rest started decorating the place. The previous two girls that wanted to serve Lei Yu when he had a bath brought a dignified and mighty looking armor to him.

“Respectfully greeting your Majesty the King. Could you please try on this armor to see if it fits?”

Lei Yu was shocked. “The King? When did I become the King?”

“Once you get married to her Majesty the Queen, this country will become yours. The Queen had proclaimed that she will abdicate to become the mother of the country. You will ascend the throne and become the King who will rule the entire country.” The girl replied.

Lei Yu just lost his senses, wasn’t this Telephassa being a bit too hasty? Today was their first meeting and this Queen was going to abdicate her throne and pass it to him? If this happened to someone ordinary, they would probably jump thirty feet high in joy. But how could Lei Yu accept this? Wasn’t she afraid of Lei Yu ruining the country and its citizens?

Since he had already made up his mind about secretly escapingtonight, he might as well temporarily accept whatever conditions were laid out to him.

Lei Yu was now dressed in a golden sacred armor with a golden sacred helm; and armed with a sharp blade; he had the look of a great General. The girls that saw him couldn’t help but to exclaim: “Wow! The King looks so mighty in it!”

Lei Yu wrinkled his nose; he was of course super happy after hearing the compliments. He thought to himself: “I do feel like some sort of great General… Oh no, I’m going to be freakin King!”

Lei Yu was different from typical people. He didn’t desire neither fame nor money, he only wanted everything to be taken care of and handled properly so that he could live his life in peace and quiet. How much money would be enough? For him, as long as he could afford a simple living would be considered enough. Not to mention he already had $1.3 billion dollars, even if he only had $130 million dollars, that amount was enough for several generations of a family to live comfortably.

Moreover, Lei Yu wanted to return to the modern world. Although the conditions of this period had a lot of good things that was unimaginable to people from modern era, but he was still a person from the modern era that was over a thousand years in the future. Getting married to a woman who was a thousand years older than himself, wasn’t that a pretty scary thought? Even though she was a mouth-watering super beauty, Lei Yu couldn’t afford to handle such blessing. Imagine if the two did do their deed in bed, and Lei Yu somehow returns to the modern era…

And one day some major news suddenly shows the headlines – people have dug out the body of a Queen from ancient Greece, and her name was Telephassa. We believe Lei Yu would think back to how beautiful she used to be and then want to vomit from nausea.¹

While Lei Yu was trying to figure out the details on how he was going to escape from the palace, Telephassa was in the throne room. Suddenly a mysterious person wrapped in a black cloak had appeared in the center of the hall. “Prophet Kalchas, did you know that I’m about to get married? The man is very heroic, even the invincible Silo wasn’t his opponent and was defeated by him.”

The head inside the cloak looked up. Inside the hood was just darkness and you could only see a pair of yellow eyes shimmering in a certain position. A hoarse voice was heard from within the hood: “My revered majestic Queen, you cannot marry him.”

“Why not?!” Telephassa suddenly stood up from the throne. The two protrusions on her chest also started shaking from her sudden action.

“He does not belong here. The only reason for his appearance is to unlock the Cretan Labyrinth’s Seal!” The person identified as Prophet Kalchas replied.

“No! It’s impossible! How could it turn out like this?!” It was very clear that Telephassa was unwilling to believe this fact.

“Your Majesty, have you thought about this carefully? In this world, how can there be anyone stronger than Silo? He clearly isn’t a normal person but someone who has received the divine revelation. He is a messenger who was sent to rescue us common people, so you don’t have the right to form a union with him!”
