Chapter 59 - Spoils of War The evil deity Nyarlathotep crumbled and turned into ashes. The sword I held in my right hand stopped pulsating, announcing the demise of its fated enemy. “...it’s over.” I removed the sword from Nefertina’s chest. Freed from the parasite, the young girl’s body slipped and fell from the throne. I held her in my arms before she touched the ground and looked at the wound. I did my best to avoid piercing her heart and lungs, but even so blood flowed copiously from the…

Chapter 50 - Necropolis Every time I kicked the sand, a cloud of dust swelled up. I was racing through the desert, as if chased by a sandstorm. Enveloped in the golden light emanated by my bracelet, I advanced straight west. “Haha…I might get addicted to this speed!” The scenery flew past me: I felt as if I had become a living arrow, or a bolt of lightning. Shape of Indra, the secret technique of Herakles, boosted my physical abilities to the limit, easily surpassing the speed that using Herakles on…

Chapter 54 - Midnight Visitor “I promised sis I’d be home soon, today…” Half a day had passed since the head cleric’s declaration. Before I could even wrap my mind around what was happening, I was dragged deep inside the shrine, and was locked in a large, luxurious room. The floor was covered with an expensive-looking carpet, so gorgeous that I was almost scared of walking; the furniture and objects in the room were decorated with gems, there were gold and silver statues everywhere. There were…

Chapter 51 - Queen of the Pyramid The undead capital was teeming with mummies walking about freely, but there did not seem to be Lord class creatures among them. In other words, they didn’t pose much of a threat on their own: I cut down any one that crossed my path, as I headed directly towards the triangular building. I planned to use Herakles if the circumstances demanded it, but it wasn’t necessary yet. “Okay…so far, so good. The question now is, how do I find the…

Chapter 48 - Dreaming of Goodbyes 【POV: Naam Sphinx 】 Lord Dyngir has headed to Fort Giza, to drive the “Terror Armies” out of the western province. Since the day of his departure, I have been anxious to the point of barely eating anything. “Naam, you have to eat something.” Mist was sitting on the bed with me, looking worried at me. We were in my room in the Sphinx residence. Ever since Lord Dyngir left, I started shutting myself inside it again, so the maid would bring my meals here. I had…

Chapter 55 - The Crowning Ceremony and the Two Red Boxes “We shall now begin the Queen’s coronation ceremony!” The head cleric announced solemnly, the bells attached to her wand ringing in response. We were currently deep inside the shrine, in the “Hall of Queens”, a room only high clerics were allowed to enter. The high clerics, who gathered in the room when I entered, were, for the most part, those who had served the shrine the longest, and thus occupied the top positions in the hierarchy.…

Chapter 52 - Kingdom of Sands and Rivers 【POV: ???】 “Rise and shine, it’s morning already!” “Hnn…” Someone opened the curtains, letting a dazzling stream of sunlight in the room. I pulled the sheets over my head, attempting to hide from the mercilessly spreading brightness. Someone’s hand, however, wrested the sheets from my grasp, leaving me defenseless in front of the daylight. “Aww…let me sleep just a little more…” “No can do! Today there’s the prayer at the shrine, did you…

Chapter 49 - Golden Trump Card Lord class creatures were basically the officers of the “Terror Armies”; so after I took down the Valon Sphinx mummy, the defenses of Fort Giza crumbled. Before the loss of their leader, the undead creatures more or less acted as if they were really trying to defend the fortress; afterwards, they simply rushed towards the nearest human in sight, like running water shooting out of a ruptured dam. Some creatures even jumped down from the fortress walls, crashing into the…
