Answer:

The actions of King Aegeus King provokes the wrath of King Minos who begins to believe that it was King Aegeus who killed his son. Possessed by wrath, King Minos asks for a tribute as a replacement for his dead son.

Step-by-step explanation:

Androgeus had won all the evidence of the Panathenaic games provoking the envy of the Aegean king, who ends up ordering to assassinate the prince, thus provoking the wrath of the king Minos. Minos then invades Attica but fails to take Athens, so he prays to Zeus to provoke plague and famine to the city. With the defeat of the Aegean king, Minos imposed a tribute of seven boys and seven girls that were to be sacrificed to the Minotauro annually.
