Chapter 446: The Egyptian Pantheon

—

In the City of Giza in Egypt, where the three great pyramids stood tall, heaven had descended on earth. 

Only the Egypt Pantheon had fully come down to Earth. Using the pyramids and its great history as an anchor, the main Realm of the Egyptian Gods was now in Giza.

High walls were surrounding the area, to block anyone unwanted, though the sky was left open. But massive Ibis birds were flying in the skies, ready to attack anyone who'd try to invade the area.

“They're cute,” Ozymandias of the Rider Class said with a smile as she ruffled the feathers of one of the birds that surrounded Neji's group.

“They look weird,” Momo shook her head while Neji just shrugged.

Ozymandias shrugged along with him. “I suppose it wouldn't suit the taste of a great phoenix such as you, sweetheart. Speaking of suiting things, I can't believe I'm doing this right now.”

“Doing what?” Momo asked, making Neji clear his throat.

“I think she means the part where she is teaming up with the God of Christianity who is by extension the God of Judaism. She has a history with Moses, you know?” Neji said, making Ozymandias smile.

“I'm glad you know,” she said, tilting her head and looking at him with elegant eyes.

“Yeah. My memory reminds me of the Ozymandias of this world, too. However, the story is a bit different from your world. In Fate, from what I remember…” Neji began to chant it for Momo to know.

Ozymandias – the male one – was the greatest hero of ancient Egypt and the third Pharaoh of the Nineteenth Dynasty of Egypt. He was friends with Moses in his life and held a special place in his heart for one of his wives, Nefertari. However, their friendship was put to the test when Moses became the prophet of the Hebrews and began to preach the teachings of God, denouncing the gods of Egypt. 

When Moses told him to free the Hebrews, Ozymandias refused. So the Ten Plagues of Egypt were triggered. If not for the might of the Egyptian gods and himself, Ozymandias believed that Egypt would have been destroyed. He finally agreed with Moses' request when his and Nefertari's firstborn son was killed by the final plague.

That's Ozymandias, Ramesses II.

The most infamous Pharaoh who opposed Moses, who went against the Big God, was now here beside the exact God and against her home country of Egypt.

“Ah. Uh-huh, so she's Ramesses?” Momo blinked and looked at Neji. “Did you two sleep together? Ah wait, who am I asking? Neji, you slept with Ramesses.”

Neji cleared his throat and looked away while Ozy giggled. “What an irony. I never would have guessed he'd end up becoming GOD. I don't want to go against Egypt, even if this isn't my world, but here we are. Time does change a person.”

“I’m pretty sure you just succumbed to his manhood,” Momo said with a tilt of her head, making Ozymandias frown slightly.

“O’ King of the Heroes, your girlfriend seems a bit jealous. She should understand a King such as yourself ought to bed with many women.” Ozymandias said, making Momo scoff. Neji didn't say anything.

He expected Momo to act moody after seeing him with so many new women. Just as Rumi had been mad, he expected her to be mad too – that he was having fun while she was suffering alone. But Momo wasn't mad, though slightly irritated towards the newer girls. Thankfully, someone like Ozy didn't let that get under her skin, she rather found that cute - if Neji had to guess.

“Girls, can we go inside already,” Neji cut off the conversation by pointing toward the pyramids. “They must have sensed us by now. Let's go in.”

“Fine with me,” Ozymandias nodded. “I am eager to meet my father in this world.”

Ozymandias was the child and incarnation of Sun God Ra. Using the Holy Grail, she can call forth Ra to descend on her body and even attain the form of Amun-Ra.

The three of them moved across the sky and reached the pyramids. Egyptian Gods flew up when they reached the three peaks. Winged Gods with chocolate skins looked at Neji with disapproval even as they were sweating nervously.

“What do you want, God of the Bible?”

“Ah, I'm going by [Admin] now.” Neji waves his hand at them. Even the Norse Valkyries called him that. Could it be that these guards were just uninformed? “I am here to meet Amun-Ra. Is he here?”

“Amun-Ra…?” The guards exchanged a glance. “Lord Amun is no more, therefore the state of Amun-Ra cannot be achieved. Are you looking for Lord Ra, instead?”

‘Ah.’ Neji's memories blitzed like a bulb at those words as he remembered. In the myths, Amun-Ra was the fusion of two Gods. Sun God Ra and Wind God Amun, the fusion of two created Amun-Ra, one of the strongest Gods – titled the God Eater.

However, Amun was killed. In a skirmish in the past with another pantheon, Amun was assassinated. So that Amun-Ra could never return to threaten the Gods. That left Ra, a fairly powerful God of his own right, to rule Egypt.

“That's sad,” Neji sighed. “Yeah, call him over.”

Neji's Jogan looked into the main pyramid – it was hard to see due to some kind of blocking device. Before he could [Boost] and peek inside, the God Ra came out of his castle himself. Half a dozen other Gods followed him. He wore a scowl.

[Ra – Sun God – High Tier 55]

“How dare you step foot in Egypt after killing so many of us a few days ago?!” He basically spat out, and Neji grew irritated.

How dare this weakling talk to him like that?

“Your pantheon attacked me, not the other way around. The Norse Gods escaped, and even Olympus escaped too. So many other Pantheons escaped, but your brave Gods stuck around until the end. It's not my fault that they ended up dead.” Neji let out a growl. He was going to end this with a soft talk as he did with Thor, but he didn't quite like how Ra introduced himself.

“Sorry, Oz,” Neji apologized to his lovely King of the Kings who shrugged and he stepped forward to clutch Ra by his throat.

“You, wha-”

Hungry dark tendrils of [Mine] energy came out of his hand and began to suck out everything Ra was made out of. The other Gods looked horrified for a second before they threw themselves at Neji with a howl. Momo stepped up and raised her hand, allowing fire hotter than the sun to flare towards the Gods. In the meantime, Neji's other hand reached to grab Ozymandias by her shoulder. 

She didn't look scared at all at his touch, even though his other hand was sucking a God dry. All the energy that Neji’s left hand drew out from Ra, his right hand poured into Ozymandias. The divinity that was related to the Sun, and even Ra’s identity itself was suited for Ozymandias.

The sky grew bright, the blazing sun in the sky looked nothing compared to the power and heat that the process of Mining the power and giving it to someone else was causing. The wind grew hot and the world cried as clouds exploded in the sky and a new God came to be. 

Her Demigod status began to change; it began to evolve. The Power of the Sun rushed inside her, and Neji mixed in some of his creation divinity inside her as well. Ozymandias changed.

The body of Ra turned into dust and Neji let go of the man's throat. 

[You have gained 83 Levels!]

[You have reached Level 5853!]

The Egyptian Gods nearby fell to their knees in defeat and stared with awe and fear as a golden shimmer cocooned around Ozymandias.

Neji hesitated and tapped her golden form on the forehead as the cocoon shattered, revealing a dark Goddess in light golden armor with red tattoos running across her body – just like Gilgamesh, just like Neji.

“Looks like we are matching,” Neji held out a hand as she accepted it, pressing her chest against his with a smile.

“As always,” she sounded much more elegant now, as suited for her Tier.

[Ozymandias – Sun God – High Tier 58]

“Tier 58.”

“Huh, really? That’s a big boost,” Even Momo agreed.

“It sure is,” Neji nodded as a thought came across his mind. ‘I wonder what would happen if she used the Holy Grail and turned into Amun-Ra after this…’

That would be incredible. In a worst-case scenario, Neji might have to sacrifice the Grail to bring in a strong ally in the field. She’d easily fill that role. He doubted he'd be bringing her to fight Trihexa though.

No, he wouldn't be bringing anyone else to fight that beast. He needed to kill that thing by himself for a bag of Levels. Also, Gods and Divinities were a waste against the Anti-Divinity Beast 666. The reason Neji was farming these divinities was for later battles, not for Trihexa.

The powers that he was farming to use against Trihexa, were… the Devil Bloodline Abilities that his other Omni Self was busy farming right this instant. Grayfia has done a great job listing down the Devil family names with exceptional abilities.
