Chapter 136 – The Prophet Appears (2/2)
Telephassa’s body was startled before heavily sitting back onto the throne. If Lei Yu was here, he would definitely feel painful for her butt.
“Is there no other way? I really like him… And with his ability, he can definitely bring our country to the pinnacle of its glory!” Telephassa was unwilling to give up as she once again looked at this fearsome prophet with eyes full of hope.
“Your majesty…” Kalchas sighed. “If we can enter the Cretan Labyrinth, he can release Minotaur Linos from the evil enchantment. After completing that objective, he may even stay here, then you can marry him and I will definitely not object to it. But for now, marriage cannot happen.”
“I also believe he will stay after that. But I want… I want to mate with him now, I want to marry him!”
“Absolutely not!” Kalchas anxiously walked forward. “Your majesty, if you mate with him now and if he suddenly disappears, you will also disappear without a trace. You must be patient; perhaps the Gods will see your piety and allow him to stay here! You must be patient!”
“Ughh…”
Inside the bed chambers, Lei Yu was still in his golden armor strutting around like a peacock. Once the servants finished decorating, they finally left. Lei Yu slipped out of the armor and looked up towards the sky, seeing that it was gradually getting dark. After some preparations, he was planning to leave when it was completely dark outside.
At this time, the sounds of footsteps could be heard outside. Lei Yu peeked out and saw Telephassa who was still as beautiful and charming as ever; she was filled with an aura that captivated men and incited their temptations. Lei Yu looked at her and noticed that her eyes were a bit red, her eyes lookedlike she had just been crying.
And following behind her was a mysterious looking man in a huge cloak. Lei Yu was unable to see his face because of the hood.
“Your majesty.” Lei Yu slightly bowed and then glanced at the mysterious man behind her.
“Lightning, the Prophet Kalchas wants to speak with you.” After saying this, she left without looking back leaving the two men inside the bed chambers.
Hearing the word “prophet,” Lei Yu’s heart was immediately shocked since the old woman had also mentioned a prophet previously. What kind of person was this prophet? Did he really have to be this mysterious looking?
“Mr. Lei Yu… Oh, you should be called that in your time period right?” A hoarse sounding voice came out from the hood.
Hearing that, Lei Yu was ecstatic. “You know what time period I’m from? Then you should know how I can leave this place right? I really want to return to the modern times!”
“You… do you not have any feelings towards her Majesty the Queen?”
At this time outside the bed chambers, light footsteps that even Lei Yu couldn’t hear neared a window. White delicate and beautiful bare feet were standing on the cold floor; Telephassa also wanted to know how Lei Yu was going to answer that question.
Lei Yu stared out blankly while his mind replayed all scenes of him meeting with the queen. Although it was only a short period of time, yet it was definitely something that was hard for him to forget. Lei Yu gently sighed before saying in a heavy tone: “Her majesty is very attractive, and she’s the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen; you can say that she has a perfect appearance. Perhaps it’s due to this era that she looks somewhat ruthless in front of others, but in fact she’s just an innocent girl. If you want me to say the truth, I can only say… I am unwilling to let her leave my side. But after all, I’m not from this time period. If I was to really marry her majesty, then I feel like it will be unfair to me and to her.

¹ – I believe the author is trying to paint Lei Yu as a stubborn person that can only keep seeing Telephassa as a thousand years old and not the young girl she is during that time period.
