King of Underworld - Chapter 169

The Trojan War – (3)

“Are you mocking me now, Hector?”

King Menelaus was convinced that this was a Trojan trap.

The Trojan commander-in-chief, who was not even visible when invading the surrounding allies, now steps forward and returns Helen?

That trash came out too? He was the king of Sparta before he was a husband who had his wife taken away.

Naturally, I was wary of any traps or tricks.

Menelaus glared at Paris and Hector with burning eyes.

“Did you think I would lose my mind and run away if you showed me that piece of trash along with my stolen wife? Or did your god Apollo tell you in a prophecy? What on earth are you trying to do…”

“It’s not a trick. Pluto, whom we have been serving for some time, values ​​justice.”

“What?”

“As proof, I will send back the woman my worthless brother took away.”

At Hector’s gesture, the soldiers pushed Helen’s back.

She slowly turned towards Menelaus with her head bowed.

Thud thud.

King Menelaus’s expression as he looked at her was very strange. He was overcome with all sorts of emotions, including anger, love and hate, regret and sadness.

In the end, the king of Sparta was unable to say anything until Helen stood beside him.

“Do you think I’ll defeat the Allied Forces and turn back just because I said this?”

“Of course, I have prepared many gifts and compensation. Paris… He may look like this, but he is my brother and the prince of Troy, and I cannot hand him over to you, but I have given him a little bit of a scolding.”

“……?”

Unarmed servants came out from among the Trojans and took out many gold and silver treasures.

A golden banquet was in Menelaus’ sight, Helen was beside him, and Paris, sitting on his horse beside Hector, could not even look in his direction.

He can clearly see Paris, who has been hit so many times that her lips are swollen.

Well, even though he was a prince, the war broke out because of that guy.

“Because of that Paris, we all crossed the sea and came here.”

“I don’t want to go as far as defeating the army and returning.”

Menelaus, who had been talking to Hector for a while, glared at Paris fiercely and then returned to the Greek camp.

Of course, he was accompanied by Helen and her attendants who carried various items called compensation.

Of course, the Greek army also looked at them with a puzzled expression…

“Isn’t that Helen? Did she send you from Troy?”

“You’re giving it back so obediently. If it was going to be like this, I should’ve done it a long time ago…”

“Wait a minute. What happens to the war then? The King of Sparta has his wife back, so he can go back to Greece…”

“I thought I would gain fame through war. But it went down the drain.”

“No way. Would the higher-ups just step down without any gains?”

The first day the war began.

The Trojan and Greek allies did not clash with each other.

* * *

The next day, the Greek army camp.

Many generals came to the tent of Commander-in-Chief Agamemnon and opened their mouths one by one.

“They handed Helen over so easily. Weren’t they afraid of the power of our alliance?”

“Huh. You must have changed your mind because you were scared when you saw the soldiers in front of you.”

“Pluto? Why would Hector mention Pluto’s name?”

“Isn’t this a tactic to threaten by mentioning the name of God?”

“But then, does this mean we too have to return to Christ?”

All eyes were on the person who spoke last.

They had Helen back, but they did not want to return to Greece without any achievements.

Considering the cost, supplies, and hardships it took to get here… we should have at least destroyed Troy, plundered the castle, and taken the spoils.

“That’s absolutely not possible!”

“I went through all that trouble to get here. How can I go back empty-handed?”

“Shouldn’t we at least cut off that Paris’s head?”

“Well, I also got my wife back, but I have no intention of backing down.”

Menelaus himself looked a little uneasy, but then nodded his head slightly.

He also knew why the other suitors had accepted his plea for help. And he wanted to kill Paris.

“I don’t really feel like it. What kind of achievements can be made by a war between humans without monsters…”

“You too, Nestor.”

However, Nestor and Polydeuces took a somewhat passive attitude towards the war.

They are those who went to the underworld and received training through the temple of Pluto in Thebes. The fact that the god of the underworld is on the side of Troy is also like that.

They didn’t want to show off their prowess by fighting mere humans, not even monsters.

“You know that in Troy, they worshipped Pluto along with Apollo. Back then…”

“Thebes Training Camp? Hmm. Well, that’s right. It’s also a skirmish… Let’s just wait and see what happens.”

Even Achilles, who was originally considered the greatest hero of the young generation in Greece.

When viewed through the eyes of true heroes who have fought mythical monsters, it only seemed laughable.

Saaaah-

As the heroes were exchanging opinions, a rainbow-colored fog rose before their eyes.

Their eyes changed at the apparent intervention of an immortal. Which god? Could it be that he was trying to give an oracle?

“Why don’t you advance?”

A tremendous pressure. Armor, spear, shield. The beauty of a goddess that surpasses human beauty.

There is only one god who meets all of these conditions: Athena, the goddess of war!

“The glory of war is at hand. Show me that the heroes of Greece are not all cowards!”

With those words, the goddess Athena disappeared in an instant.

The generals, elated at seeing the god with their own eyes, drew their swords, and Agamemnon leapt to his feet.

“The goddess Athena is on our Greek side! I will definitely capture Troy and offer it up to the goddess!”

Goddess of War, protect us.

Meanwhile, inside the city of Troy.

A messenger from the Greek camp brought the alliance’s message to Troy.

“…I will go back if you just give me Paris’s head?”

Hector, the Trojan commander in chief, covered his head with one hand.

As expected, sending Helen back is out of the question. They were originally targeting Troy…

The Greek coalition forces appear to be a formidable force.

On the other hand, his homeland, with only a few exceptions, was mostly occupied by its nearby allies and lacked a good number of armed men.

Even though Hector is the greatest general in Troy… can he do it alone?

While Hector was looking down at the map and thinking about a strategy, a woman came into his room.

Cassandra, princess of Troy and Apollo’s beloved sister.

“Brother.”

“Huh? What is it? Cassandra.”

“This is the oracle of Apollo.”

Hwaaak-

As soon as Cassandra finished speaking, her body emitted a massive amount of light.

A faint sense of heat and oppression. Phoebus Apollo has descended to the underworld through his priestess!

“Hector. Blood of Cassandra, whom I love.”

“Oh, Lord Apollo!”

“Take courage. Remember that you are the commander-in-chief of Troy and its greatest general.”

The warm energy radiating from the sun god enveloped his kneeling body and gave him strength.

A direct blessing from God. The power of the twelve gods is also infused into Hector’s body.

“Thank you, Apollo!”

“This great war will be difficult for mortal bodies to endure. But you don’t have to worry too much.”

The sun god’s last words as he slowly leaves Cassandra’s body echo in his ears.

Above Hector’s bowed head, the voice of the god came down like a revelation.

“I and the gods of Olympus… no, countless gods will protect Troy.”

Oh gods, save Troy.

A plain a short distance from the city of Troy.

The Trojan army, which had left the castle, and the Greek allies, who had formed ranks outside the camp, glared at each other.

But there were those who took a step back from this fervor: Nestor and Polydeuces.

“Ahem. You’re young. Young. I also saw monsters at that age…”

“Hahaha! Let’s let the young people do their own thing and stay out of the way for a bit.”

“I’m thinking the same thing, Peleus. After all, we’ve already got Helen back, and we’re not fighting any monsters.”

The disappearance of the two veterans of the Greek Allied Forces who were slaughtering monsters was something everyone hoped for.

The Trojans believed that the departure of their heroic force would increase their chances of making a mark. The Greeks believed that the departure of their heroic force would increase their chances of making a mark.

Anyway, the great generals of each camp riding on tanks and encouraging their soldiers.

Penthesilea, queen of the Amazons and daughter of Ares, who offered to help Troy, and Aeneas, son of the goddess Aphrodite.

Among the heroes of this generation, Diomedes, who is considered the second strongest warrior after Achilles, and Ajax, who is of enormous stature, are gaining momentum.

Clank clank. Swish.

“Raise your spear and shield and stand guard! The enemies you see before you are a sacrifice to the gods of Olympus!”

“Let us drive out these men and restore our peace, ye Trojans!”

“Paris! Where is the wicked man who broke the customs of hospitality and stole my wife?”

“Those who have ugly desires that won’t go away even if Helen is sent back are right there…”

Unlike generals who prepare for battle by encouraging their soldiers from all sides,

Agamemnon, who led the Greek alliance, and Hector, the Trojan commander-in-chief, glared at each other.

A tense situation, just before the battle begins.

The gods of Olympus are busy moving to help the humans they cherish and protect.

“Apollo. You too must have a grudge against Troy. Was that child Cassandra so beautiful?”

“…Uncle Poseidon. I’m sorry, but this time I cannot back down.”

“What? Do you believe in Hades, who is on Troy’s side?”

“Athena! I am finally getting my revenge for the great flood that I suffered because of you!”

“Huh. That’s why you always lose to me.”

Even the gods above the clouds engaged in a war of nerves.

As the warm breeze of Zephyrus blew, the commanders of both camps gave orders.

“All troops. Charge!”

“For honor and glory! Forward!”

The Trojan War. Begins.
