Pharaoh

The Nile River, the mother river of Egypt, has always been flowing quietly. The emerald-clear water reflects the brilliance of the sun and meanders on the golden sand and gravel land in Egypt.

Only once a year, when the bright water star 'Sob Ud' rises in the sky before the radiance of Ra God, it is the moment when the Nile River receives the guidance of the gods——

It will set off huge waves, and the sudden surge of river water will submerge the river banks around it, turning those former oasis fields into a world of water shortage.

However, that was not the punishment that Habib, the god of the Nile, imposed on the Egyptian people in his anger, but the gift that Habibi gave to his people.

Soon, the rising waters of the Nile will recede, and the fertile soil it left behind on the ground it once flooded will remain.Egyptian farmers then grew various crops on the land, and that was the main source of food for Egypt.

The flooding of the Nile flooded its banks and brought them fertile land.

Although the flooding of the Nile River will bring certain troubles, years of experience have allowed the Egyptians to build the city near the farmland formed by the flooding of the Nile River but will not be flooded by the Nile River, so in the final analysis, it will not cause too much loss. .

Of course, there are also some cities that had to be moved because of the sudden rise in the flood level of the Nile River, and they were abandoned.

But in any case, the annual flooding of the Nile is the most joyous moment for the Egyptians.

Therefore, almost every time this time comes, Egyptian farmers are almost counting their fingers and waiting.

Of course, except for the horse thieves who live in the deep desert most of the time.

For them who live by plundering, they only need to remember to 'harvest' when the crops are ripe, and they basically don't care about when to plant this kind of thing.

Only this time, they could no longer say that they had nothing to do with themselves.

The sun has jumped out and risen from the distant horizon.

In the distance, there seemed to be a rumbling sound from the densely packed low mountain group. Tafes waved the thick bronze halberd in his hand, and didn't pay much attention to the strange muffled sound.

Thieves King Diabondo led most of his troops to meet the pharaoh, and handed over the rest of the army to him. He didn't say much, but just casually gave the order to take down the city of Memphis.

Although Tafes himself is a titan, his brain is only average, but because he is also very aware of his weaknesses, he can honestly follow the advice of his staff, so he can be regarded as a moderate general.

Not to fight the siege of Memphis was the suggestion given to him by his staff.

However, seeing that the city of Memphis was within easy reach, an important person who suddenly appeared caused his staff to divide into two factions and quarrel endlessly.

One faction advocated taking the city of Memphis first according to the order of the Thieves King, while the other faction strongly demanded to capture the king of Egypt first.

Tafes pondered for a while, but in the end, utilitarianism prevailed. After all, the city of Memphis was far less important than the Pharaoh's only younger brother.

As long as he can catch the king of Egypt and send him to the king of thieves as a hostage to threaten the pharaoh, then he will be able to become the most intimate confidant of the king of thieves after he has made great achievements.

It was early morning at this moment, and Tafes rode at the foot of the steep mountain, looking at the huge army behind him.

He took a deep breath of the morning air to calm down his agitation.

Ever since he heard the spies report last night that the king of Egypt had fled to this high mountain that can be called a dead end, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.

Although he really wanted to go up and grab Brother Wang immediately, but considering that it was pitch dark in the middle of the night, especially because the mountain was surrounded by steep, strange rocks and vines, it was impossible to walk at night, so he had to hold back his eagerness and wait until early tomorrow morning to rush up Catch the younger brother he has been chasing for days and nights.

Even after wandering around most of the night with his eyes open, Tafes still looked energetic at the moment.

At night, he couldn't see the mountain's appearance clearly, but at dawn, he was immediately happy. Although the mountain was steep, there was only one narrow road leading up to it, and only five or six people could climb up side by side. Thick vines are entangled, and horses cannot pass through them at all.

With such a path, even if the Egyptian army wanted to protect the younger brother and rush down to break through the encirclement, it would be impossible to do so.

The Egyptian army is simply trapped in a cage!

Tafes wondered if he should just surround him like this. The Egyptian army would naturally surrender without food and grass, and save his troops from being wasted.

Shaking his head, the urgency of catching the king of Egypt made him give up this idea.

Raising his head, Tafes grinned and waved his hands heavily, and the soldiers shouted heavily and rushed towards the mountain impatiently.

Everyone knows that the king of Egypt is on the top of the mountain, and whoever catches him will make a first-class contribution.

Looking at the soldiers with high morale, Tafes touched his chin, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his rough face. Then, he pulled the reins and galloped up the mountain with a few confidants on horseback.

The ground suddenly shook violently.

Countless horses let out a long neighing sound, raised their front hooves high, and panicked as if they were frightened.

The army that was rushing up the hill in a neat line suddenly dispersed, and the soldiers shouted in a panic, either reprimanding or comforting their mounts.

Tafes tried hard to rein in his mount, but the dull roaring sound came one after another, as well as the swaying ground under his feet, which made his mount restless.

"what happened!"

He yelled at the general who stayed behind at the foot of the mountain.

The general didn't look at him, but just stared behind him dumbfounded, the look of fear on his face seemed to be so frightened that he could hardly speak.

The muffled rumbling sound was still far away one second, and was close behind the next second.

Tafes turned his horse's head sharply, and once he looked back--

With just one glance, his face was distorted and he froze in place.

The overwhelming huge waves surging from the gaps in the short mountains are like huge waterfalls falling from the sky, like thousands of troops rushing towards the entire valley from top to bottom.

The splashed and high-flying huge waves looked like a white dragon with its ferocious mouth open, waiting to swallow countless humans in this valley with one bite.

The flood surged from top to bottom, and it came down fiercely. The cliff that could not withstand its attack made an overwhelmed sound of collapse. The huge rocks were broken and fell by the flood, but it was even more intense when mixed with the flood. Its power increased, and it was engulfed and rushed to the other side of the cliff.

Not far away, a dwarf mountain that could not bear the impact had already burst open with a bang.

The ferocious flood with an indomitable momentum made a roar that shook the world, and galloped unscrupulously in the valley.

Wherever it went, everything was destroyed and submerged under its crest.

"Go up the mountain!"

Tafes, who finally reacted, let out a roar.

It's just that his roar seemed so weak and helpless in the rush of the flood.

In fact, without his order, everyone spontaneously fled to the high mountain in front of them the moment they saw the rushing flood.

However, the narrow road cannot accommodate so many people rushing up, and countless people huddled in a mess at the intersection, unable to move.

Knocking away the companions blocking the way in front of him, trampling on the companions who accidentally fell to the ground with horseshoes recklessly, and even drawing their knives at each other just to break a way for themselves to escape up the mountain——

The inferiority of human beings is fully exposed at this moment.

The soldiers near the foot of the mountain can still escape to the high mountain, but the troops stationed in the valley at the rear have no time to escape, and can only look desperately at the monstrous flood rising high——

The churning flood drowned out the screams that echoed throughout the valley.

The Nile River is roaring, losing its usual peace and tranquility, swallowing everything it passes through.

It is so hungry and thirsty that everything in the world becomes a sacrifice to worship it in its white waves.

The weak power of human beings is so small in front of it.

The corpses of people whose heads had been smashed by debris in the flood floated above the water, and the bright red was scattered in the white water.

In the vortex of the flood, those who struggled and called for help stretched out their hands to the sky in vain, their eyes wide open and they sank little by little.

……

The quiet valley has become hell, leaving only a dead ocean.

Tafes galloped crazily towards the top of the mountain on his horse, his rough face and forehead were already bulging with blue veins.

He didn't understand why he, who was clearly sure of his chances of winning, would fall to the present situation. The tragic and extreme failure had already confused his mind.

His eyes were bloodshot red due to rage, and he could no longer hear the calls of his followers.

Forward, and forward.

he thought.

If you move forward, you can catch the younger brother who made him fall into this tragic situation!

The one who killed most of his army!

catch him!Cut off his hands!Cut off his feet!

Tafes raised his head, his red pupils reflected the blue sky at the top of the mountain.

He rushed towards the high mountain, frantically whipping the horse under his crotch, making it gallop to the limit.

His face was distorted and deformed by anger, as ferocious as a desperate beast.

Ahead, on a high hillside.

Ahead, on the straight upward road.

The white horse stood leisurely in the middle, blocking the way of Tafes.

The brilliance of the newborn morning sun scattered from the mountain peaks, piercing Tafes' eyes through the sharp golden hair of the boy standing on the horse.

On the white hand holding the scabbard at the waist, the gold ornaments shone with the purest golden light.

Tafes widened his eyes, and he sped up his horse again.

Raising the huge halberd in his hand, the man looked ferocious, and swung it down at the young man blocking the way in front of him——

It was unclear whether it was the moment when he raised the halberd or swung it down.

Perhaps it was the second when he rode his horse and passed each other, the young man who seemed to be standing leisurely in the middle of the road suddenly drew his sword out of its sheath——

The long sword with a white cold light blade made a crisp cry in the air.

Click!

Like an arc of lightning flashed across the huge halberd.

The broken halberd head leaped out of the air, fell down and plunged heavily into the depths of a rock.

A thin line of blood-red color spread across the air, and the tall body of the man passing by the boy fell to the ground.

The dark-skinned head rolled in the air, spilling blood red all over the ground.

The eyes that were rounded to the limit, only had time to see the boy's dark purple pupils casually glance over in a condescending posture.

The pure white horse let out a long neigh, and its neigh echoed in the jungle on the top of the mountain.

It was quiet on the top of the mountain, only the countless heavy breathing could be heard.

All eyes were fixed on the boy who beheaded the enemy general who had been chasing them for several days and nights with an understatement.

The person they thought needed their protection and ended up being protected instead.

They looked at him with uncontrollable excitement on their faces.

That is their prince.

A man of the great Egyptian royal family.

The undisputed descendant of the sun god Ra.

He standing there is enough to make everyone willing to prostrate on the ground——

The pure golden hair flashed a golden arc in the air, and the bloody long sword in the hand of the king of Egypt pointed forward.

at his feet.

The direction of the countless swarming enemies.

He spoke without haste.

His voice was so clear and piercing.

He said, "Under Ra's gaze, for the glory of my Egypt—"

"The glory of my Egypt!!!"

The roar of the Egyptian soldiers bursting out from the depths of their throats resounded throughout the sky amidst the roar of the flood.

Hundreds of knights charged down the peak of the mountain, but the momentum was like a thousand troops galloping down.

Go forward indomitably, fight to the death on the battlefield.

That is the eternal glory of the powerful and iron-blooded Egyptian army!

……

On the high mountains surrounded by floods, the brave Egyptian army is harvesting the lives of enemy soldiers.

In the chaotic battlefield, the eyes of the old general's young son staring at the back of the "brother Wang" shone with scorching light.

Beside him is the guard named Raz of the 'Wangdi'.

"His Royal Highness is really a powerful person!"

The young general sighed, from time to time he looked at the 'Wang Brother' as if there was a cluster of burning flames in his eyes, and there was an undisguised expression of admiration and admiration on his face.

"Lord Raz, it's great that you can follow His Highness."

He said to Raz in an envious tone.

While speaking, his hand didn't stop, and he chopped off the enemy on the left with a sword.

"...I feel the same way."

Not rejecting this young and childish general, Raz rarely opened his mouth to answer his question, and at the same time shot an arrow through the chest of a low-level enemy general not far away.

"Actually, the rumors I heard about His Royal Highness are not very good."

The two fighting side by side looked at Sora as they slashed and talked. To be precise, it was the young general who wanted to hear more about the people he admired from Raz.

"Those people said that he was born as a commoner, that he was not royal, that he was too childish, and that he looked like a king but was weak."

As the young general spoke, he couldn't help showing a look of indignation.

"It must be someone who despised His Highness for being so powerful and intentionally slandered him!"

"His Royal Highness is obviously a majestic and powerful person, those people must have something wrong with their eyes!"

"I have to work hard! Even if I can't become as strong as His Highness, at least I have to get the strength that His Highness affirms!"

The young general excitedly waved the long sword in his hand, already deeply immersed in his idol worship feelings.

"There is no royal air, His Majesty's majesty is not inferior to the king at all! When he was standing there just now, many people didn't even dare to take a breath, didn't they!"

"His Royal Highness's strength is obvious to all. His brilliance can't be concealed even by the glory of Ra God! If I hear those liars dare to slander Your Highness again—"

"puff."

"Master Raz, what are you laughing at? Did I say something wrong?"

The young general, who was interrupted by the faint sound when he was talking about excitement, asked in a daze.

"I didn't laugh, you read it wrong."

Raz continued to chop people calmly while answering, his voice was flat and indifferent.

Am I really wrong?

The young general, who obviously heard the pop just now, continued to cut people while looking at Laz's stone-like expressionless face for self-reflection.

"You want to follow His Royal Highness because he is very powerful?"

"Of course! For a majestic and powerful master like His Highness, everyone wants to follow him, right?"

"Then you should give up the idea of ​​following Brother Wang."

"Huh~~~? Why? I know I'm not strong enough now, but I will make myself stronger!"

"...People who worship the strong are not suitable to follow the younger brother."

"Master Raz! Please, let me follow His Royal Highness! Believe me, I will not let you regret it in the future. I not only worship the strong, I will also make myself a strong!"

"...No, that's not what I meant. I just want to say that you are more likely to regret it."

"yeah?"

"Yes, it is like that."

"Master Raz, you seem to be laughing again..."

"No, you read it wrong again."
