Countess' lover

Orthea was riding on a horse, surrounded by a vast and boundless desert, with the scorching sun in the sky.The wide white cloak covered her head, covering her face that was three points similar to the original.With brown eyes and a bronze complexion similar to that of an Egyptian, the goddess Orthea had returned to the God Realm a month ago, and now she is just an ordinary priestess Seya.

Theia is a priest who serves the goddess Isis, and she is also the second priest to master special abilities after the high priest Imerton.Her ability is to heal.Of course, with such a useful ability, she needs to follow the pharaoh's expedition to Hittite.

The Pharaoh and the soldiers all knew that Priest Seya had been studying with the High Priest, and her good luck was envied by many.Look, aside from being a god, how could Imerton be worse than her?

Orthea's eyes followed the high priest beside him faintly.He is still in a simple white robe, and he bears the venomousness of the sun together with other soldiers.His bronze-colored skin was tanned black and red in the sun, and even though there were thin beads of sweat on the high priest's forehead, he still looked faint, full of convincing divine brilliance.

But besides her, who would know how weak Imerton is at the moment?He used half of his divine power in the form of blood as a medium to pull her soul, lost blood, and lost normal divine power... Every time Ortheya thought of it, she couldn't help but feel guilty and distressed.Of course, there may be some annoyance and confusion now.

Something had changed between her and Imerton since that last incident.She had never realized so clearly how different the High Priest had been to her before.Respect has not changed, piety has not changed, but there is less intimacy and more indifference.

She approaches and he backs away.She kisses his forehead compulsively, and he just reads his chanting.She went to him to ask questions, but he just found the pages of the book for her, and he no longer explained to her helplessly like before.It's like feeling and worshiping a real god, but the distance is far away.

But why?Orthea was full of grievances.Even this expedition to Yi, if she hadn't threatened Imerton, if he didn't bring her back next time, he might not be able to see her. Imerton probably would definitely not bring her here.

From birth to now, where has she experienced such indifference and alienation?Seeing that no one was paying attention, Althea quietly rode the horse closer to Imerton, and raised her hand to wipe the sweat from the high priest's forehead.Orthea silently argued in her heart that she was just embarrassed because she had received half of Imerton's divine power, otherwise, she would have ignored him.

"Dear High Priest, can't we stop and have a rest?" Althea asked him, feeling sorry for Imerton's burned skin.

The high priest looked at the gradually setting sun, and summoned his divine power to cover Orthea with an invisible film.With half of his divine power lost, it was even more difficult for him to perform such an uneasy move, and it was extremely easy to drain his physical strength.

"Please persevere, now is the best time to march, we must find a source of water."

Orthea was angry and annoyed, indescribably irritated.She was originally a divine body, the sun and wind and sand might make her disgusted, but it would not affect her in any way, let alone the little bit of fatigue.The high priest is so smart, can't he really understand what she means?

Breaking through the protection given to her by the high priest, Althea quickly stood up from the horse and jumped onto Imerton's horse.She wrapped her hands around Imerton's waist, her chest was tightly pressed against the high priest's back, and divine power poured into the high priest's body from the place where the two of them were touching.

"Saya..." The high priest's voice carried a warning.

"High Priest, I'm just tired, you don't mind taking me for a ride!" Althea looked innocent, but she smiled brilliantly behind Imerton's invisible back.

The soldiers not far away seemed to have discovered something in the desert. Taking this opportunity, Imerton quickly escaped from Orthea's hands. "I gonna go see."

Empty horses, empty arms.Orthea bit her lip tightly, regardless of what the high priest was looking at, and rode forward at a fast gallop.The divine power she just conveyed is enough for him to support him for a long time, as for the rest, who cares?Emerton often emphasizes her identity, so why has she ever forgotten that she is a god?God is proud.

The horse galloped and brought the wind.Her hood was blown off by the wind, and her curly black hair fluttered in the wind.The priests of the goddess Isis do not wear braids or make-up, but even after changing their skin color, the facial features of the goddess Orthea are still exquisite.Moreover, it quickly caught the eyes of those who cared.

"Priest Seiya——" Orthea heard someone calling her. The soldiers in front lined up to block her way, and the cavalry behind her surrounded her in the center.

"Priest Seiya." The young soldier was panting. He has a handsome face and beautiful hair. He is not very old. Judging from his clothes, he should be the heir of a certain general.

Orthea reined in the horse and looked at the young man proudly, "What's the matter?"

The soldier calmed down and saluted the priestess respectfully, "Pharaoh wants to receive you."

Seti I?Orthea endured so much that she didn't call out this disrespectful name.She habitually wanted to find the High Priest, but Imerton had already been left far behind by her. Maybe she was still busy with the things she found in the desert and didn't notice anything wrong with her at all.Thinking of this, Orthea couldn't help being agitated, "Then, take me there." So she didn't refuse.

Seti I put on a light armor and sat on the horseback, which was a little more chilly than the noble one last time.He squinted his eyes and looked at the priestess in front of him, and was surprised to find that she was somewhat similar to the goddess Orthea a year ago, even the irreverent pride was surprisingly similar.

Thinking of Orthea, Seti I's eyes were dim.He is the incarnation of the sun god. Except when he bowed his head to the next pharaoh as the crown prince, no one has ever treated him with disrespect or even threatened him like that woman.Yes, in the eyes of Seti I, the goddess Orthea is just a woman.

"You are Seya who has healing power?"

Orthea raised her head, but her eyes just flashed past Pharaoh.She looked at people with the indifference of a god.

"Thanks for the gift of Goddess Isis, I will serve Goddess for life." This was what Imerton taught her when arranging her identity, specifically dealing with Pharaoh.

Seti I's eyes flickered, and he smiled slightly at Orthea, but his tone was undeniably firm, "But you should be clear that the priestess is also a concubine, and she can still serve the goddess Isis in the palace."

The pharaoh's meaning has been expressed very clearly, and it is clear that Orthea is disgusting.She looked at Pharaoh, and clearly conveyed the disdain in her eyes to Pharaoh. The anger in her heart seemed to have found a channel to vent, so what if it angered Pharaoh?Can he still force the gods?Just an ordinary person.

Seti I was furious for a while, holding the long sword with his fingers, and even wanted to kill.A message relieved the oppressive atmosphere. It was still the handsome young soldier just now, but the content of the message was different.

"Dear Pharaoh, the high priest found a woman in the desert, and he hoped that Priest Seya could go and have a look."

Pharaoh let go of his fingers and stretched his arms, "A woman?" He looked at Orthea, who was still unrepentant and seemed a little excited, "Let's go together and order the army to camp. Let's call it a day."

The soldier hesitated, "But the high priest hopes to find the water source..."

"Are you questioning Pharaoh?" Seti I's cold voice was like the temperature of the desert at night, making the soldiers shiver. "Order the troops to halt their advance."

"Yes." This time, there was no objection.

As night fell, the temperature in the desert dropped sharply.Orthea hid herself and quietly came to Imerton's blanket.The high priest has a special status and has a separate resting place.Orthea was the only woman in the team. She originally had a separate blanket, but tonight she gave half of it to the rescued woman.

The woman's name was Ansuna.She was a very beautiful ancient Egyptian woman, her beauty and pride seemed to be integrated into her bones, especially after she put on makeup, she was even more radiant and charming.She was rescued by Imerton, and the first person she saw when she woke up was also Imerton.Orthea did not want to live with a strange woman, or in other words, she did not think that an ordinary woman was qualified to live with God.In this place, the only person who is qualified is probably the high priest.

Imerton was reading a golden book when Althea sneaked in. He was chanting something plausibly, with a serious and solemn expression.Orthea liked his expression. She felt that whenever the high priest was doing something seriously and solemnly, even that bald head was shining.Very charming!

"The Sun Bible? The things on it seem to have a lot of power."

"Orthea...goddess!" Imerton was surprised by her arrival, frowning tightly, as if she was not happy about her arrival. "I thought it was too late now."

Orthea poked her head and laughed at his ignorance, "I can go without sleep for a year and still be in good spirits, and then I can sleep continuously for a year without any problem."

Imerton closed the book, lowered his head calmly, "God's body is different from ordinary people." But he is just an ordinary person. "Goddess, please come back."

Refused, so obvious.

Orthea raised her hand to caress his eyebrows, but Imerton's attempt to avoid was completely ignored by her.Her fingers slid down along the contours of the eyebrows, gently tracing his lips.With such tenderness, she felt his trembling, but it was definitely not disgust.

"Your body tells me that you love my touch, but your mind wants to avoid it." She reveals this fact ruthlessly, even if she is full of smiles.

The eyes of the high priest fluctuated quickly, and then returned to calm. He recited, "Happiness comes from the contact between the senses and the objects of the senses. At the beginning it is like nectar, but in the end it is like poison. Self-control, asceticism, purity, tolerance, honesty, wisdom, knowledge, devotion to religion..."

She reached out her hand again to block the high priest's words, and her green eyes were like the brightest turquoise, "So, do you want to prove that you have desire for me, dear Emerton?" , High Priest—"
