Chapter 137 Taking care of a friend's fiancée
Looking at Roy who was urging her, Pandora said with a playful smile.

"I never said that if you tell me the story, I will immediately tell you the secret you want to know. It is also okay for me to tell you the secret after a year or ten years later."

"Princess Pandora!"

Roy walked quickly to Pandora, grabbed Pandora's left wrist with his right hand and said.

"I'm not Deucalion who is obedient to you. You must tell me the secret as agreed."

Fluttering——

Perhaps Roy's actions frightened the owl, and the owl that was standing on Pandora's left wrist flapped its wings and flew away.

"let me go!"

Looking at Roy who was grabbing her left wrist, Pandora said with an unhappy face.

"Do you think there is no one watching us nearby? If Deucalion knows what you did to me, you will be in big trouble."

Roy didn't know if Deucalion had sent someone to monitor and protect himself and Procne, but Roy knew that Deucalion would definitely send someone to monitor and protect Pandora, so as to prevent Pandora from having a relationship with other men. Put a green hat on him.

Thinking of Deucalion's reaction, Roy let go of Pandora's left wrist, then took two steps back and said.

"Princess Pandora, are you really not going to fulfill the agreement?"

"Haven't you ever thought that maybe I'm not the reincarnation of the Moon Goddess, but a deified human princess—just like your fiancée Procne was deified as the Dew Goddess. So I don't want to tell you, But I can't tell you."

After speaking, before Roy could recover from the shock, Pandora walked around Roy and returned to her room.

Roy stood there blankly, full of doubts in his heart.

Pandora——

Is she the incarnation of the moon goddess, or a deified human princess?

the next day.

After Roy and Procne had breakfast in Deucalion's palace, Roy planned to take Procne outside the palace to do some business.

As the two walked towards the gate of the palace, Procne asked curiously.

"Brother Roy, what are we going to do when we leave the palace?"

"I'm going to discuss business with the big grain merchant in Knossos! We came to Knossos not only to participate in the spring plowing ceremony, but also to bring grain back to Athens."

Roy led Procne out of the palace, suddenly turned and said to Pandora who was following behind.

"Princess Pandora, why have you been following us?

Hearing what Roy said, Procne realized that Pandora had been following behind.

After being spotted by Roy for stalking, Pandora walked up to Roy and Procne with a blank expression, and said intimately, holding Procne's arm.

"I didn't follow you, I followed Procne."

Then, Pandora smiled and said to Procne.

"Dear Procne, I'm bored in the palace alone, can I stay with you?"

Procne nodded immediately and said.

"Prince Deucalion has to entertain all kinds of guests, and is also busy with the spring plowing ceremony, so he definitely doesn't have time to accompany you. If Princess Pandora is willing to treat me as a friend, of course I am willing to be with you. I believe Brother Roy I won't mind, because Brother Roy is a friend of Prince Deucalion, and he will definitely be willing to help take care of his friend's fiancée."

Helping to take care of a friend's fiancee——

Although it looks fine on the surface, this sentence is not pleasing to the eye no matter how you look at it.

If a friend offered to help Roy take care of his fiancée, Roy would definitely stab the friend twice in the ribs.

Thinking that he and Pandora were not alone, Roy said with a blank expression.

"Princess Pandora, you don't mind the trouble, just act with us!"

After speaking, Roy walked ahead, leading Procne and Pandora towards the port of Knossos City.

Eteo, a great grain merchant in the city of Knossos, lived in a luxurious stone house near the port.

Roy brought Procne and Pandora to Eteo's stone house. The soldiers guarding the gate saw that Roy looked like a noble prince and brought two noble and beautiful princesses who looked like goddesses, and they didn't dare to stop Roy. The three of Yi let the three of Roy enter the interior of the stone house.

Roy took Procne and Pandora through the corridor and entered the hall, and saw Eteo sitting on a stone chair, talking with a fat middle-aged businessman, and there were two Young and beautiful maids serve them.

Seeing the three Roy who suddenly broke into the hall, Eteo stood up and exclaimed.

"Princess Pandora—"

The middle-aged businessman also stood up and looked at the three Roy who looked like a prince and princess with awe.

Hearing Etteo call out her name, Pandora frowned and said.

"Have you seen me? I don't know you, and it's not me who came to you."

"Lord Eteo, don't you know me anymore?"

Roy took the initiative to say to Etteo.

"I'm Loy, the priest of the Athenian tribe. I'm here to trade grain with you today."

"My lord, please wait a moment."

Although Eteo couldn't remember Roy who had met once, he knew that the future queen of Knossos was with Roy, which was enough to prove Roy's identity.

After bowing his head respectfully to Roy, Eteo turned and said to the middle-aged businessman.

"I'm so sorry, let's talk about business tomorrow!"

The middle-aged businessman didn't have any dissatisfaction, and left very tactfully.

After the middle-aged businessman left, Eteo drove the four maids out again, and then asked the three of Roy.

"Honorable princes! Two beautiful princesses! What do you want from me when you come to Eteo?"

Looking at the respectful Eteo in front of him, and thinking of Eteo's arrogant attitude when they first met, Roy couldn't help laughing.

"Eteo, I have [-] catties of olive oil that I want to sell to you. For this [-] catties of olive oil, I will first exchange for [-] catties of grain, and the rest will be exchanged for bronze spears."

After listening to Roy's words, Eteo, who had lowered his head, raised his head and said.

"The price of an unused bronze spear is one thousand catties of grain. Ten thousand catties of olive oil is equivalent to fifty thousand catties of grain. In other words, I need to give you forty thousand catties of grain and ten bronze war spears."

"[-] catties of grain can only be exchanged for ten bronze spears—"

Procne couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Bronze spears are too expensive."

Roy said with a smile.

"Procne! This price is normal. We won't bring back only ten bronze war spears."

After speaking, Roy walked up to Etteo, took out a small cloth bag, and showed the white salt grains inside.

"Eteo, this is another product of mine, you have a taste of it."

Eteo tentatively stretched out his right hand to grab a grain of salt and put it in his mouth to taste.

The next moment!

Eteo widened his eyes and said.

"Is this the salty white stone? Great goddess Europa, white stones can be so beautiful and delicious."

Roy corrected immediately.

"This kind of thing is not a stone. Its real name is salt. Eteo! How much grain do you think a catty of salt should be worth?"
