Chapter 142 – Golden Bull God (2/2)

“Oh heavens! You guys, quickly! Come look!”

The common people and soldiers by the city gate all had startled expressions on their faces. They were all just too shocked from staring at a majestic-looking shiny golden bull rushing towards them. With the current speed of the golden bull, most likely no one would dare to stop them.

Lei Yu firmly smacked the big head, “Slow down! Don’t go smashing into anything!”

Minotaur Linos gradually decreased his speed, eventually coming to a standstill in front of the city gates. His red eyes were staring at the soldiers guarding the gates, scaring them to the point that their legs were shaking non-stop. But, once they saw the person riding atop of the bull, one of the soldiers cried out: “Isn’t that the warrior that defeated Silo? Oh, god! He is actually riding such a fearsome-looking golden bull!”

“That’s right, it is him!”

Only after seeing Lei Yu did they finally feel somewhat relieved. At least they knew Lei Yu wouldn’t commit anything terrible, or else the great Queen Telephassa wouldn’t have recruited him to become the King.

With Lei Yu’s presence, naturally, no one dared to stop them from entering. The golden bull then carried Lei Yu valiantly towards the center of the city.

“They actually don’t recognize me? Then, why would they still have my portrait on the flags?” The golden bull’s voice was so soft that only Lei Yu could hear it.

“I say, Mr. Bull-Head, you are really quite dumb. You’ve changed your form into a golden bull’s right now! Who on earth would recognize you as such a huge thing? Maybe a thousand years ago people knew your other form, but this is a thousand years later! These common people and soldiers only know your bull’s head and human body form!” said Lei Yu.

“Oh! Right, right, right!”

The lofty fiendgod Minotaur Linos was reprimanded by Lei Yu this way. If it was back then, Lei Yu’s words would have caused these two to battle it out fiercely. But the way things looked right now, it was doubtful that anything of the sort would happen.

Arriving in front of the huge palace, Lei Yu used his internal energy and cried out in an ear-deafening manner: “Would Queen Telephassa please come out and receive the mighty fiendgod – Minotaur Linos!”

At this time, Lei Yu jumped off from the bull’s back. When in front of the Queen, he still had to give the bull-head some face.

Lei Yu and the bull-head both cried out: “Moo~!” ¹

Right after that, Minotaur Linos’s body started transforming. In full view of everyone, the huge golden bull’s body instantly became smaller. From having four limbs on the ground, he gradually stood up on only two; the long golden hair gradually disappeared, and his body gradually became a human’s. An armor was adorned on his body, battle boots on his feet, and his hands wielding a huge golden axe. If people couldn’t see his head, then this impressive scene would have probably captured the hearts of millions of girls. Except, once you saw his head, then it was kind of…

Telephassa was currently in the throne room, anxious about the enemy’s incoming attack. Hearing the familiar voice, she was immediately shocked! Wasn’t this the person she had been longing for day and night?

Hurriedly standing up from the throne, she hastily led the crowd of officials towards the front gates of the palace. The speed of her light body made some of these old officials feel that they were unable to catch up to her.

Once she saw Lei Yu, Telephassa started getting teary-eyed, her red swollen eyes giving anyone who saw her a heartache. Since there were too many people around, she had to fight back her impulse of running towards Lei Yu and giving him a hug. She shifted her gaze towards the entity next to him, a tall and strong existence with the head of a bull and a human’s body.

The warriors and officials following the queen all looked at Minotaur Linos with big, wide eyes. He was exactly the same as the portrait on their flag, so there was no way he could be a fake. They couldn’t believe that the foreign guy had actually managed to rescue their mighty fiendgod!

All those officials on the side had even forgotten their duty, their eyes staring at the mighty bull-god in a daze. Their legs were trembling non-stop as they seemed to have forgotten how to speak.

“Kneel!”

It was the queen’s clear voice that cried out. All the warriors and the common people on the scene instantly kowtowed. The scene was too impressive and Minotaur Linos could not help sighing. “A thousand years of humiliation! Today I have finally restored my glory. Benefactor, this is all due to you!”

Lei Yu’s lips curved into a slight smile as he chided the bull-head: “Nice, ain’t it? You’ve been given so much face today.”

Perhaps it was his previous injury that made Lei Yu difficult to tolerate the pain, making him start coughing.

“Why aren’t you guys getting someone to heal our benefactor?” the bull-head bluntly shouted, causing even the ground to shake. Scared to the point of having sweat beading on his forehead, a medical official immediately rushed forward to support Lei Yu. The bull-head started following behind. Telephassa didn’t bother with etiquette either, and also followed in a hurry. It appeared that she was only worried about Lei Yu. Even the fiendgod Minotaur Linos’s return was not as important. And it looked like she had completely forgotten about the enemy invasion at this point.

¹ – Yes, the raws really say: Lei Yu cried out and the bull-head also cried out.
