Pharaoh

Too many coincidences and inevitability brought about a tragic ending...

The ancient gods fell asleep one by one.

Egypt.

That country of gold with a long and glorious history ruled by the great Pharaoh just disappeared in war and blood with a mysterious past and civilization that can no longer be solved...

Although he is not very qualified as a student with poor grades, he has learned the well-known historical knowledge game of ancient Egypt being invaded and destroyed by foreigners.

... Well, it's actually because many computer games always involve the ancient Egyptian civilization. He knows it after playing a lot.

In history class or when playing games, just listen and play.

Now that he heard such a thing again, the game who had integrated into the identity of the king of Egypt suddenly felt a little sad and confused.

Although there was also the country of Egypt in his time, that Egypt had completely become an Arab country that believed in Allah and gathered Arabs who had nothing to do with the ancient Egyptians.

The splendor of the ancient civilization that created countless miracles can only be glimpsed from the depths of the incomplete temples and pyramid cemeteries.

Yu Yu was silent, thinking sadly, and suddenly a strange thought popped up from the bottom of his heart.

It stands to reason that ancient Egypt in his era was indeed destroyed. According to the God of the Earth, it was because the evil god lost control, the Pharaoh died suddenly, the Egyptian gods fell asleep, and Egypt suffered a series of devastating blows. The Egyptian Empire suddenly turned from prosperity to decline and was finally conquered and destroyed by foreigners.

But now...

The king of Egypt was thinking wildly on one side, and on the other side, the black-haired boy who had told everything let out a breath in an extremely slow motion.

His dark but glowing pupils stared at his frowning young host who seemed to be struggling to think about something, and there was an indescribable strange emotion in the depths of his eyes.

"Host."

He said that his tone seemed a little lower than usual.

"This is the future of Egypt."

He paused slightly, his pupils narrowed in a slender arc, and repeated again, "This is the history of Egypt that you should know."

The game was originally a random "um" sound, and it suddenly got stuck in the middle of it, choking in the throat and unable to get in and out.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at Obelisk with wide eyes, showing an expression of disbelief.

"You said... 'History that should have been known'?"

He repeated the sentence word by word, took a step back unconsciously, and suddenly shook his head hard.

"Impossible, you can't know, I, I am..."

"You come from a world 3000 years from now."

Obelisk said, in an understatement.

In a word, he immediately grabbed the throat of the Egyptian prince who was trying to distinguish something, and was unable to move.

Yuyu stared at Obelisk with wide eyes, opened and closed his mouth, but couldn't make a sound.

Obelisk's pupils, which were so dark that they seemed to be able to swallow all light, looked back at the game. His gaze was quiet, but it gave people a strange and trembling feeling of being extremely quiet.

He said: "It was I who sent you here from the future 3000 years later, united with the power of Ra and Osiris at that time."

"But, but, the black magician said, he said that another me used the power of the golden building blocks to pull me here."

Because he was too shocked, he couldn't help but took another step back, and the game shook his head vigorously to refute.

His doubts made Obelisk, who once existed as an evil god, look down, and immediately revealed a frightening coldness.

"To reverse the flow of time, you must change the rules of the world. How could that half-baked pharaoh have such power."

He said he seemed unimpressed with the power of the current pharaoh.

Hearing what Obelisk said, the story of the three god cards in his hand suddenly glowing when he was lying on the bed before coming to ancient Egypt suddenly appeared in Yu Yu's mind.

And he did come here suddenly after the three god cards glowed.

And as the owner of the golden box once, he felt that although the golden building blocks and the golden box possessed powerful divine power, as Obelisk said, it was impossible to reverse the flow of time.

Back then when he wanted to leave the Pharaoh and return to his own world, he also opened the door to go back through the power transmitted by the stone slab of the Three Illusory Gods...

In this way, the truth should be that, as Obelisk said, it was the power of the three gods that brought him to ancient Egypt.

"But, but—"

The young Wang Di once again questioned something he couldn't understand.

"You just said that you three gods were all asleep because of the loss of power, so how could you have the power to send me here?"

And why did they send him here?

It was already a mindless game waiting for the answer, but Obelisk, who went his own way, completely ignored his question and changed the subject on his own.

"As an evil god, I gave up the human being that I should have lived in according to the historical trajectory, and chose you as my host."

The god of the earth and evil god said to his host, "Do you know why?"

"Ah?" Even though he was upset at the other party's sudden change of subject, Game still answered honestly, "Didn't you say that before, you said that my soul is more suitable for you to lodge, and it can allow you to use your power to the maximum. "

Little Gangdora suddenly flapped its wings vigorously, and the little wings accidentally slapped Yuyu's face, and Yuyu grabbed it off his shoulder as soon as he stretched out his hand.

Throwing it into the air, he let himself flutter his wings in the air.

The pupils of pure tones that were as lacquered as ink lightly glanced at the little Gondola who was flying past in front of him, and then fell back on his host again.

"That's one of the reasons, but it's not the point," he said.

The reason he immediately noticed when the game came to ancient Egypt——

The reason why he did not hesitate to give up the human being that he had cultivated for nearly ten years——

The reason why he was unconsciously attracted and chose the game——

The reason why the soul of the game fits him——

All that is no coincidence.

The black-haired boy raised his hand, and lightly touched the brow between his host's eyes with his white fingertips.

The dark pupils stared at the host meaningfully, and the corners of Obelisk's lips slowly curved slightly.

"Before I sent you 3000 years later, I left a mark deep in your soul."

Therefore, when the host first came to ancient Egypt, as an evil god, he immediately felt the presence of the host.

Therefore, as an evil god, he was unconsciously attracted by the host with his own soul imprint and finally gave up on Bakula, who had been trained for many years, and chose the king of Egypt as the host.

——Because this boy was sent to Egypt as his container from the beginning—

When everything is over, the imprint deep in the soul of the game has also dissipated.

And now he has learned from the information stored in the imprint left by himself 3000 years later, the history of the disintegration of Egypt that should have happened in the past, and what he has done 3000 years later.

"We... are very unwilling."

The black-haired boy spoke in a low voice, his expression a little dazed for a moment.

All their people are gone.

Their empire annihilated history.

They couldn't sleep forever.

If it is true to sleep forever like this, maybe there will be no follow-up, but——

Many, many years later, a human man came to the depths of the Pharaoh's Pyramid's cemetery, and accidentally obtained the Golden Eye, one of the golden artifacts, and also saw with his own eyes the stone slabs of countless monsters buried in the pyramid.

Under the guidance of the golden eye, he returned to the city and unwittingly created a popular card game.

This card game quickly became popular all over the world.

Then, the man created three unique God cards that stood on top of all monster cards.

Pull the Pterodactyl.

The sky dragon of Osiris.

Obelisk's Colossus.

"As I said before, our gods gain power only because of human belief."

Three unique god cards standing at the top are wildly sought after by duelists.

The existence of the Three God Cards has almost become an alternative and extreme belief among duelists.

And it is precisely because of the admiration and belief in cards by countless duelists in the world, that turned into a weak power of faith, which revived Ra, Osiris, and Obelisk, who had been sleeping for 3000 years.

The Egyptian gods who woke up learned what happened after they fell asleep... The angry and remorseful gods were unwilling to be reconciled to such an ending and determined to change history!

However, at this time, they only woke up with a little bit of faith, and they were already extremely weak.

The only thing that comforted them was that they felt the power of the soul of the Pharaoh of Egypt.

They watched what happened next until the pharaoh's soul returned to the underworld.

Osiris used the pharaoh's refusal to submit to him as an excuse, and combined the power of Ra and Obelisk to throw the pharaoh back to the time when the tragedy had not yet occurred in ancient Egypt——

The original purpose of the three gods was to allow the pharaoh who had the memory of the past to prevent the tragic history that was about to happen, thereby changing the tragedy of Egypt's demise.

but……

"Pharaohs cannot change history."

Obelisk sighed softly, "He himself is an existence in the historical torrent of the disappearance of Egypt. Even if he comes from the future, he is still trapped in the history. No matter what he does, he is just a drop of water splashed by the river itself. In the end, it will still melt into it.”

"So, if you want to change history, you must be an existence that has nothing to do with this history and is outside the historical torrent."

said Obelisk, looking deeply at his host.

And the Egyptian prince subconsciously raised his hand and pointed at himself.

"You mean... me?!"

You opened his mouth wide and pointed at himself for a while, then couldn't help but smile wryly.

"You guys think highly of me too, I'm just an ordinary person, how could such an important matter—"

Obelisk frowned and shook his head at the game.

"It's you who are too arrogant."

The one they chose had the mission of saving Egypt from its doom...

It must be someone who has nothing to do with this period of history.

But it must be a person who has a close connection with ancient Egypt and is not completely isolated.

It must be someone with a strong and resilient spirit to meet the challenges of that dark Egyptian history.

It must be a person who can be quickly accepted and recognized by the Egyptian people and even the young king and priests at that time.

At the same time, it must be a person who will do his best or even go all out to protect Egypt and the Pharaoh.

Therefore, the young man who used to be the container of the Pharaoh and had an appearance very similar to the Pharaoh became the only and the best candidate.

Obelisk, with the deepest sense of remorse, left an imprint on this young man's soul, leaving the information of everything that will happen in the future in this imprint.

In the end, the three gods tried their best to send the young man who had a close relationship with the pharaoh to ancient Egypt, and they disappeared completely.

But because the three gods sent the future Atum back to 3000 years ago, the power was almost exhausted.So even if they used up the last bit of power this time, it was still not enough, almost causing the game to be torn apart by the power of the rules in the torrent of time and space.

Fortunately, Yatum, who was already in ancient Egypt at that time, noticed this because of the resonance between the golden building blocks and the golden box, and decisively exhausted all his strength to protect the game, which allowed him to reach ancient Egypt safely.

It is precisely because of this that the black magician thinks that Atum pulled the game from the future.

It is precisely because of this that the series of events after the game came to Egypt...

"Are you angry?"

After revealing all the truth, Obelisk, God of the Earth, stared at his host with dark pupils, and asked with raised eyebrows.

"There are some……"

Yugi replied with a visibly displeased expression.

The savior said it nicely. After all, no one would be happy to know that they were secretly plotted by others to be used as some kind of container and ran to a strange place without knowing anything.

After all, no one likes to be a pawn at the mercy of others.

"But it doesn't matter."

The always good-tempered and talkative Egyptian prince replied honestly even though he felt upset.

"If it helps Atum, I'll do it even if I know the truth from the start."

[If you are in danger, no matter where I am, I will help you immediately. 】

Just like what he once said to Atum, once he knew the truth, it was even more impossible for him to ignore it.

[As long as you need me, I will come to you. 】

So even though he was very upset about the three gods plotting him, but considering that it was to save another him after all, he decided not to pursue the other party's responsibility generously.

...and he felt that he was not that capable of holding God accountable.

"Then according to what you said, the Pharaoh is not dead, and Egypt will not perish in the future, right?"

The game asked Obelisk what he most wanted to know right now.

"I don't know."

The Egyptian god shook his head.

Game frowned.

"You are a god."

"God is not omnipotent."

Obelisk replied calmly.

One sentence blocked the Egyptian king's speech.

Indeed, if the gods were truly omnipotent, not so much would have happened, and Egypt would not have perished.

"As my host, you have changed the historical track of 'death of the pharaoh' that will inevitably lead to the destruction of Egypt."

Obelisk shook his head, "Indeed, Egypt will not die because of this."

"However, whether I will become an evil god again in the future, whether the Egyptians will maintain their belief in us, whether foreigners will invade again... There are still countless uncertain factors in the future of Egypt, so, host, I cannot answer your question."

The Egyptian god of the earth looked at his host, who was also the younger brother of Egypt, with a peaceful expression.

"The kingdom of Egypt..."

He says,

"Whether Egypt will eventually go to ruin or glory, it is up to the pharaoh to decide."

【Pharaoh of Egypt】

【Son of Sunra with the most noble blood】

【That is the supreme being that rules everything in Egypt】

【The golden scepter in his hand controls the future of this ancient and great kingdom of gold, the rise and fall of all glory and disgrace】...

"I understand."

The Egyptian prince was silent for a long time, then nodded slightly.

He hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but ask again.

"how about you?"

"I have exhausted my strength, and I should have been sleeping in your body forever."

Obelisk replied indifferently, "It was only because I was worried that if I didn't explain these things clearly, there would be other changes in Egypt, so I forced myself to wake up and tell you everything."

"Since you know this, I will continue to sleep forever."

He said, "Although you will continue to use your body to sleep, it will not affect you in any way."

"Is that so..."

The game suddenly felt a little bit reluctant.

"Then when will you wake up?"

"do not know."

The God of Earth answered impatiently, suddenly frowned, and stared up at his host.

"I have to remind you one more thing."

He raised his hand, and the little Gondola was happily flapping its wings and running around on his shoulder, but he was suddenly grabbed by him, and immediately looked at it pitifully with its small ruby-like eyes. He begged for mercy.

Obelisk narrowed his pitch-black pupils slightly, his raised eyebrows were narrow and long, and a shimmer of light flashed through the depths of his pupils, which immediately made little Gondola tremble, honestly La shrugged her head and fell silent.

Seeing that Gondola was honest, Obelisk spit out the second half of the sentence.

He said, "You watch out for Pharaoh."

"Ugh?"

Hearing Obelisk's words, the Egyptian prince looked at him in astonishment, with a dazed and suspicious expression on his face, wondering if he had heard it wrong.

The Egyptian royal family is at odds, which is obviously not what the god who protects the Egyptian royal family wants to see.

Yugi didn't understand why Obelisk would say such words to provoke the relationship between him and Atum.

And Obelisk should also be very aware of how close his relationship with Atum is.

Looking at his bewildered host, Obelisk's slender eyebrows frowned slightly.

Casually throwing away the gondola in his hand, he stepped forward and walked in front of his host.

"As my host, don't be easily eaten up by Pharaoh and look confused."

He said coldly, with a condescending attitude, with a bit of hatred for iron and steel.

"what?"

"Even if there is a limit to being unwarranted, the Pharaoh—whether it is the arrogant guy like Ra in the past, or the guy who is as scheming as Osiris in the future—is not easy to deal with. "

In particular, he was quite aware that the two pharaohs were staring at him, a host who was easy to bully.

Thinking so impatiently, the black-haired boy who had exactly the same appearance as the Egyptian king's brother poked his finger heavily on the king's chest.

"Beware of me!"

"Huh? This... ah, ha, ha... actually... it won't be a big problem... right?"

Cautiously staring at the other party's bottomless pupils, the Egyptian prince shrank back uncomfortably.

He answered Obelisk's words in a low voice, blinked his eyes several times, and his gaze was erratic with a look of guilty conscience.

"I said—"

The Earth God stared at his host uncomfortably and spoke.

A sentence was abruptly cut off in half.

His originally slightly frowning brows were slightly raised, and a strange look suddenly appeared in his eyes staring at You Yu.

"……you know?"

he asks.

It was a low voice, but the last sound was slightly raised, revealing a bit of a sense of nonsense.

Although it was a nonsensical question, the person being questioned could understand it.

The game let out a low uh and couldn't help taking a step back, but Obelisk immediately stepped forward and pressed him unceremoniously, still staring at him coldly with a condescending look, obviously not letting him be fooled Plan to pass.

The king of Egypt looked sideways, not daring to meet him, and just whispered.

"A little bit."

He said in an almost inaudible voice, his expression was very embarrassed, and his cheeks were slightly flushed.

"Hmm~?"

This time, Obelisk let out a cold snort with obvious rising dissatisfaction.

"All right……"

The king of Egypt, who always eats both soft and hard, especially hard, finally chose to give in.

As soon as he raised his hand, a fluffy chestnut ball jumped out of his fingertips with a snap.

With a cry of joy, the chestnut ball jumped over and hugged the little master's face, and rubbed it happily.

Obelisk stared at the round and fluffy chestnut ball for a moment, but soon showed thoughtful eyes.

……

The reason why the elder brother of Egypt suddenly felt something was wrong with this piece of elm wood, it had to start from last time.

At the beginning, the boy king made such a sudden move that was almost like an attack. At the beginning of the game, he was stunned and didn't react before letting the opponent manipulate him.

Later, because I was anxious to escape from that weird atmosphere, I didn't have time to think about it.

But as soon as he stepped out of the Pharaoh's bedroom, the cold night wind blowing outside immediately woke up his already muddy mind.

Leaving aside Brother Wang's weird behavior, it is strange enough to say that Brother Wang offered to let him go back to his dormitory.

On the way back, the more he walked, the more he became sober, he pondered for a long time, and the more he pondered, the more he felt that the pharaoh's behavior was not right.

So, he hesitated for a while, and finally called out the chestnut ball while the attendants behind him were not paying attention.

Then he went back to his dormitory with an honest look.

And no one noticed that the fluffy chestnut ball that obeyed the order of the little master sneaked into the corner of the skylight in the pharaoh's bedroom, hid there and heard the conversation between the two pharaohs from beginning to end.

Then, of course, the cute little monster ran back to its owner's arms, obediently sending what it saw to the owner's brain.

then……

Under the huge impact of this event that was no less than a comet hitting the earth for him, the king of Egypt was stunned for a moment, his mind completely shut down, and his computer crashed...

anyway.

When he was holding the fluffy chestnut ball and was still thinking blankly watching the scene where the chestnut ball passed directly into his mind, the other him who suddenly appeared in front of him really shocked him.

Heartbeat stopped for a moment.

The pictures and conversations he had just seen in his mind made him so embarrassed for a moment that he didn't even dare to look up.

The other one was terribly uncomfortable when he got a little closer to him.

Even though he tried his best to pretend that nothing had happened, when he looked up and met the other's eyes, his face became reddened to the extreme and he stuttered and couldn't utter a complete sentence.

No, this is not right at all, why is he the one with a guilty conscience? Hammer the ground!

……

"It seems that you know what's going on in your heart. I'm busy."

Obelisk, the earth and evil god, said so, his slightly flickering eyes moved away, and he looked as if nothing had happened.

No answer.

At this moment, the entire vast hall was quiet, only the chestnut ball was chirping happily.

Its chubby body almost covered Wang Di's entire face.

If it was normal, I am afraid that Brother Wang would immediately push away the chestnut ball that was pounced on his face, lest its long chestnut hair rub against his cheek itching.

But this time, You You lowered his head slightly, letting the chestnut ball lie on his face, but raised his hand slightly stiffly to stroke the chestnut ball's fur.

He rubbed the chestnut ball without saying a word.

The chestnut ball, who didn't notice the owner's abnormality at all, happily continued to rub its fluffy body against the owner's soft cheeks, screaming, and the big round light purple eyes were bent into the arc of the crescent moon.

However, its chubby and fluffy body couldn't cover the small half of the white right cheek of the king of Egypt and the right ear that stood up from the golden hair and was exposed to the air, and it was completely hot and red.

It looked like a red-hot steam oven was about to burst out——

Although our Egyptian prince lacks emotional strength, at least his IQ is not a problem.

The dialogue between the two pharaohs is so straightforward that it is completely naked and can be understood as long as it is a person.

No matter how insensitive he is—

Well, it's time to get the hang of it now.
