Chapter 56 - A Heart Devoured “NOOOOO!!! MILLIA!! TEP!! Why!? Why did you do this!?” I had just sworn that I would become Queen to protect them. So, why did this happen to them? It was…unbelievable. “Hohoho…I am glad to see that you are satisfied with the offerings, Your Majesty.” “What are you saying!? Why did you do this to them…!?” Furious, I yelled at the head cleric — at the old woman responsible for the murder of the two people dearest to me. I tried to stand up from the throne…

Chapter 53 - Queen of Prophecy In the heart of the Kingdom of Jaswat, a location that offered a view of the entire kingdom — Amstrahotep and I were standing in front of the shrine we served. The triangular building, created by piling countless stones, stood guard over the kingdom ever since the distant past. In front of this symbol, said to be given to us by God, a large crowd of people had gathered. Most of them were soldiers and clerics, but there were also regular people, all here because of the…

Chapter 40 - Grime and Mummies “Gwoh…!” Along with the light, an intense stench flowed towards us. I pinched my nose to resist somehow, and inquired about it. “What the hell is this!? The smell of corpses? No…this is…” “M-My apologies. I did not tell you where the passage leads to.” Jaar replied, he too was pinching his nose. “We are in the fort’s latrines. It will smell a bit, but please endure it.” Of all places, the secret passage led to the fort’s toilet. Holding my nose in…

Chapter 47 - Zeal Drenched in Blood 【POV: Sakuya】 “Mph…to go with my brother and leave me here…Lord Dyngir can be so mean sometimes.” In the city of Thebes, capital of the Sphinx territory, I was left in charge of the residence currently borrowed by Lord Dyngir. The conflict caused by the invasion of the “Terror Armies” in the western province was going to end soon. My master, Lord Dyngir, was now leading troops to retake Fort Giza, an outpost located on the western border of the…

Chapter 44 - The Fallen Hero Valon’s blade descended on me from above, and I blocked it with my sword. “Gh….!?” It was a crushingly heavy blow: my knees almost gave in under the weight. “Kha! Hahaha! How is the taste of my reborn blade!?” Valon’s mummified face cackled, and while I was still recovering from the previous strike, he launched another attack. Our swords clashed, as I desperately blocked Valon’s slashes. The weight of his sword and strikes were much superior to the Valon I…

Chapter 41 - The Last Betrayal 【POV: Jaar Menfis】 (Well…I never thought I’d get a chance this quickly.) I whispered to myself as I watched Dyngir Maxwell mow down the undead creatures with his blade. When Nahib Massab ordered me to assassinate Dyngir Maxwell, I felt desperate. How was I supposed to kill a warrior of his caliber? However, after we snuck into Fort Giza, we ended up separating from the rest of the troops, and he was not even facing me right now. I couldn’t have asked for a better…

Chapter 45 - The Final Duel “Ghh…!!!” My fist made a dent on the mummy’s face. Any regular human would have probably had their skull caved in and die, but Valon just retreated a couple steps. “Youuu…daaaAAAAMN YOUUU!!!” Valon, holding his face with his left hand, swung his shamshir in a wide arc. I quickly stepped out of the way and poked out my tongue at him. “Be glad, you’re a lot more handsome now. That ugly dried up mug of yours got slightly more bearable to watch, at…

Chapter 42 - An Unexpected Acquaintance “...is he dead?” “So it seems…cross over safely, you poor soul.” I looked down at Jaar Menfis, who had just drawn his last breath, and slowly shook my head. Besides me, Oboro had a grave look on his face as he clasped his hands and murmured some sort of prayer. (What a fool…there had to be other ways to deal with this.) Family and loyalty. What was one supposed to do, if they were weighed against each other on the scales? Not even I would be able to…
