"I know, kid." Aspasia couldn't help but sigh. "This world is so unreasonable sometimes." "It's okay, the gods will protect us." "Speaking of the gods... Child, did Lady Athena give you any oracle? What did Lady Athena say about your pledge of allegiance to the Persian emperor? Doesn't she object?" "Of course not." Hilde said with a smile. “This is the most correct choice at this moment.” "That's fine, that's fine..." Aspasia breathed a sigh of relief.
Of course, Aspasia definitely didn't know. Athena was actually Hilde herself. But such a lie was indeed special and inspiring. Knowing that Lady Athena supported Hilde's decision, Aspasia's concerns were completely dispelled. She was a little desperate, but now she saw hope again. Seeing her mother cheer up, Hilde couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She stood up and said to Aspasia, "Mother, I will leave here and go down to rest. I will stay here for about 7 days. After 7 days, I will bring people back to Byzantium with you." "Okay kid, be sure to pay attention." Aspasia stood up as well. She nervously held Hilde's hand. "You must be careful." "Don't worry, mother." After calming Aspasia down, Hilde returned to her residence. In fact, during the conversation with Aspasia, Hilde did not tell Aspasia about what happened between her and Xerxes. The reason was very simple. After all, Hilde did not have the courage to tell her mother about selling her body for something. Although in ancient Greece, it was actually nothing to say such a thing... But Hilde just didn't want to say it. This is no way. Hilde returned to her residence and couldn't help but think back to the series of events that happened today. She didn't expect that Xerxes was her playmate, and she didn't expect that it would eventually lead to the current situation. The Byzantine Kingdom is in danger. What happened on weekdays is enough to give Hilde a headache, but she didn't expect that now she has climbed up to the big boss of Persia. This is a huge opportunity for Hilde and the future of the Byzantine Kingdom, but it also comes with great dangers. But if we want to break the current situation. Perhaps this path is the most important. postscript Friends meeting for the first time, meeting for the first time. Long time no see, my friend, long time no see. This is the law of parity non-conservation, also called a green fox. I am very happy to write an afterword again. Actually, I didn’t plan to write this afterword, but I finally finished writing the second volume of this book. There are always some things hidden in my heart that I want to say through this afterword. I hope you can understand. After all, I am used to writing afterwords. I didn't update yesterday because my physical condition has not been very good recently. After returning from Harbin, my body has been in a not very comfortable state. Recently, there have been some big problems in updating the three novels I was writing at the same time. I consulted a doctor and the doctor said it was due to excessive fatigue. I think this is also related to the fact that I didn't have time to walk around during the past few days in Harbin.
But since I am already writing this postscript, my purpose is actually to tell you about my condition. There is no problem now. I know that many readers of this book are also readers of my other two books. I will tell you about my current situation here, and I hope everyone can rest assured. Closer to home. Now the second volume of the book Goddess has been completed. Originally, the Queen of Persia would appear at the end of the third volume, but considering some special factors and my subsequent plot design, I felt that the story might progress too slowly, so I put the Queen of Persia in the second volume. I wonder what you think of the character of Queen Xerxes of Persia, and whether you like this new character. Regarding the design of this character, I noticed that some readers had some doubts in the comments. I clearly said at the beginning of the story that I was writing a strong lesbian story, and the heroine is the kind of character that will not be easily trained or pushed down. And now when a very strong character like Xerxes appears, some readers will feel confused. So let me explain a little here, that is, although Xerxes is a much stronger character than Hilde, Hilde is not in a weak or passive position in the relationship between the two. Overall, Hilde is still strong. At the same time, I want to say that every time Hilde is in a slightly disadvantageous position, there will be readers who stand up and say that this is completely inconsistent with the strong setting, but from my personal understanding, a weak heroine, a protagonist who is often pushed down, also has strong moments, and a protagonist who is usually very active and strong, also has weak moments, this is a very normal thing. I have been writing SF novels for 10 years, I am not a very good author, but since I said that my protagonist has this kind of personality, then he will not change a lot. Therefore, I just hope that readers can give the author a chance when they encounter these questions and doubts while reading. What I can guarantee is that the story I wrote will definitely be in line with what I promised to you. The story may not be so good, but it will definitely not deviate too much. I have a high control over the story and my own requirements for the story are still relatively high. The next plot to be updated is the content of the third volume of the story. In the third volume, the competition between Hilde and the King of Thracian will officially begin. This chapter is also the first climax of the novel. The book will also be available on February 3st. I will prepare to save the manuscript this month, but while preparing to save the manuscript, I will not give up updating. Up to now, this book has more than 7000 collections, which is 1 more than when the first volume was completed. I know that in the current environment of SF, this result is not very good, but I am already quite satisfied to have the support of so many readers. I hope that you can support my book when it is on the shelves. I hope that readers who like this work can click the subscription button when I put it on the shelves. I, Qinghu, may not be able to guarantee anything, but what I can guarantee is that when my work is officially on the shelves, my plot will not shrink or fool readers because of my listing.

Anyway, thank you all for your support. Tune 1, Section 1: Pledge of Allegiance to Persia Hilde had been in Persia for a week. This week, Hilde has been waiting patiently. During the day, Hilde would wander around Ankara to learn about Persia and even the Eastern world. Although Hilde's goal was not the East, in order to deal with a series of emergencies, Hilde had to know something about it. At night, Hilde had to serve in the bed. Xerxes was indeed an oracle blessed by the gods, and his vigorous energy made Hilde a little overwhelmed. Hilde even began to worry. What if Xerxes became addicted to this kind of life and was unwilling to let Hilde go? Fortunately, Xerxes kept his promises. Since he had promised Hilde that he would do this, he would definitely do it. He was an emperor after all. Do what you preach. A week later, all officials in the Ankara region of Persia and officials accompanying Xerxes gathered at the gate of the temple. At this moment, Hilde was wearing a very gorgeous Persian-style robe and countless gold jewelry, looking elegant and luxurious. Of course, Hilde was wearing such gorgeous clothes today, not for any celebration, but today Hilde had to swear allegiance to Emperor Xerxes in front of all Persian officials. In addition to Hilde, everyone including Hilde's mother Aspasia, Sophia, and Hilde's mother arrived at the scene. They all knew now that Hilde had no choice but to be loyal to Persia for the sake of national security. Although this outcome was not very satisfactory, the other side was the powerful Persia after all. If she did not agree to this, the entire country might be doomed. Therefore, swearing allegiance was an unavoidable act. The people around Hilde could understand her choice, and they didn't have too many complaints. They just felt that Hilde was a little pitiful. She had to kneel on the ground and swear allegiance in front of so many Persians. She was obviously a hero and the oracle of Athena, but she had to do such a humiliating thing. Therefore, a feeling of sadness permeated Hilde's people. But Hilde himself didn't think so much. If it only relied on the oath of allegiance. He would be able to obtain a population of up to 110,000 people, the command of 2,000 elite Persian troops, a large amount of supplies and gold and silver treasures, and more importantly, the super-powerful backing of Persia. These things combined were much more valuable than the so-called dignity, not to mention that the current situation did not allow Hilde to refuse. Of course, Hield is very clear about what he actually paid for. The so-called loyalty is just a formality.
The real cost is Hilde himself. Fortunately, Emperor Xerxes is a woman. If the other party was a man and fell in love with her, Hilde really wouldn’t know what to do. "Her Majesty Queen Hilde of the Byzantine Kingdom, please come forward." At this time, a Persian official smiled and said to Hilde, and Hilde walked straight to the front. She first stepped on the steps leading to the temple, then walked up step by step and came to Xerxes. At this time, Xerxes looked at Hilde with a smile on his face. He carefully looked at Hilde's clothes and said, "You look really good in this outfit." "Thank you, Your Majesty." Hilde lowered her head and smiled. “Please kneel down.” "Yes." Hilde knelt on one knee without hesitation, lowering her head. Everything she did was to express her submission to the Persian Emperor Xerxes II. At this time, an official held a tray with a golden scepter on top. This was a symbol of the governor and Persia, and now Xerxes gently picked up the scepter from the tray and walked in front of Hilde. "Queen Hilde, I now appoint you as the Governor of Thrace of the Persian Empire. May you rule the entire Thrace region and the Thracians for the Persian Empire, and spread the glory of the Persian Empire throughout the Western world. Everything you do will be watched by the God of Truth, and you must always remember that there is always the powerful Persian Empire behind you. And me." "Thank you, Your Majesty." Hilde stretched out her hands and took the scepter. It starts from the moment you get the scepter. This means that Hilde is no longer the queen of an independent kingdom. She is now the governor of the entire Thrace region on behalf of the Persian Empire. Of course, this identity exists at the same time. Now Hilde is not only the queen of the Byzantine Kingdom, but also the governor of the Persian Empire. This dual identity is actually a very convenient thing for Hilde. Because after returning to the Byzantine Empire, as long as Hilde did not want to deliberately publicize this matter, it would be difficult for other city-states and forces to know that Hilde had sworn allegiance to the Persian Empire. The first part of the second section is a business that is sure to make money This was also the result of the negotiation between Hilde and Xerxes. After all, what Xerxes really wanted was not the so-called Thracian region, but Hilde herself. As long as Hilde could be loyal to him and not leave him, Xerxes would be willing to give anything possible. "As a governor who is loyal to me and the Persian Empire, I now grant you all the citizens of Miletus to command. At the same time, I grant you all the expenses for the food, clothing and daily expenses of these 110,000 people. In order to help you overcome the difficulties smoothly, I also grant you the command of 2,000 immortal soldiers. These 2,000 immortal soldiers are at your disposal. They will protect your safety and the safety of your sphere of influence. They will shed their last drop of blood for the area under your jurisdiction." "I will also give you a large amount of gold, silver, slaves and various rare treasures to reward your loyalty. I hope you can be loyal to the Persian Empire and manage that area well for the Persian Empire." After Xerxes II said this. He reached out his hand and pulled Hilde up from the ground. "My dear Hilde, from now on, you are mine." "His Majesty……" Hilde coughed twice. "There are others here." "It does not matter." When Xerxes said this, she looked around and saw the reactions of the people around her. Others were a little surprised by what Xerxes had just said. They didn't expect Xerxes to give Hilde such a generous reward, so that even the people around Hilde were now open-mouthed, dumbfounded, and didn't know how to react. After all, from a common sense perspective, the rewards and gifts Xerxes had just given were indeed a bit too much. Especially the 110,000 Milesians. You know, for many city-states or countries, suddenly having an extra 110,000 people or 110,000 laborers is a very scary thing. Even the Persian Empire did not have a large enough population to take 110,000 people lightly. But Xerxes was rich and gave the 110,000 Milesians directly to Hilde. Not to mention the food, clothing, and other extra rewards of gold and silver. The value of these things added together is probably far beyond the imagination of an ordinary person. It is an astronomical figure.
"Hilde." "I'm here." "I still have some things to deal with now, so since you have sworn allegiance, you can return to your country with your reward. But you must remember that when I finish my work, I will go directly to your country to find you. I hope you will be ready by then." Xerxes smiled faintly, because she knew very well that Hilde would never refuse what she said. After hearing this, Hilde nodded and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, I will always be ready to welcome you in the Byzantine Kingdom. No matter when you come, I will be fully prepared." "Your words are enough." Xerxes looked at Hilde and his heart began to beat fast. She really wants to do something now. But there were so many people here, so Xerxes had to suppress his inner impulse. No matter what, I must not be impulsive now. And Hilde also understood very well that since she had already agreed with Xerxes to leave today, Hilde could not delay at all. If Xerxes really went back on his word, then everything would be over. So Hilde bowed slightly and said with a smile: "Then your Majesty, I will return to the Byzantine Kingdom today with your reward. See you later." "Um……" Xerxes looked obviously reluctant. But since this is what he said. Xerxes had no choice but to accept it. "Don't worry, I will send someone to protect you on your way back to the Byzantine Kingdom. I promise that your two thousand Immortal Army will gather and go to the Byzantine Kingdom in a month. If you need anything else, you can send someone to communicate with me at that time. Of course, it would be best if you come here in person." At this point, Xerxes became a little excited again. "I will give you a feast in Persepolis." "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness." Hilde also replied with a smile. "Then there is no time to lose. I will take my people back now. May your Majesty be in good health." It can be said that this trip to Persia was a sure win for Hilde. Although it seemed that she had lost a lot in terms of moral integrity, what she got in return was something that allowed Hilde to open up the situation and be reborn. If you look at it from this perspective, then Xerxes is really a good person. However, Hilde felt that he had indeed abused the other party's kindness to him. I am indeed a bit of a scumbag. Besides, Hilde was a boy in his previous life after all. Hilde still felt a little reluctant to see a beauty like Xerxes so infatuated with her. Chapter 3 of the first tune: The Persian Emperor's Gift So.
There's no problem in sacrificing one's chastity to satisfy Xerxes. That's what Hilde thinks. Moreover, Hilde originally wanted to try to suck Xerxes' blood, but considering the blood curse and the series of problems that Xerxes might cause due to various reasons, Hilde thought it would be better to forget it. Otherwise, once Xerxes had the blood curse, Hilde would definitely be trapped by her side. After all, Hilde also simply speculated on Xerxes II's ability and found that Hilde could not beat Xerxes at all.
