Pharaoh

In recent days, the pharaoh's confidants and priests have been really busy, not to mention that the pharaoh's long sleep has made their hopes less and less, just to deal with the temptations and doubts of other officials and priests Just enough to give them a headache.

Worried about the situation of the pharaoh, while trying their best to keep the Egyptian government running, and at the same time, they have to deal with inquiries from all sides and suppress the dissatisfaction of a large number of officials... At this moment, they can only be described as besieged on all sides.

The first few days after the pharaoh fell asleep were good, and they could forcefully suppress some people's doubts with their previous prestige, but as time went by, people who noticed something was wrong turned their suspicious and confused eyes on them.

The pharaoh, who has been extremely diligent since he ascended the throne, has not appeared in front of everyone for many days... The priests imprisoned the pharaoh, the pharaoh is seriously ill and will die soon, and the king's brother colluded with the prime minister to seize the throne and so on. There was a lot of rumors in the capital, and people who felt terrified about it or had malicious intentions intentionally or unintentionally pointed their finger at the great priests who were trying to cover up the truth.

There were endless quarrels in the Egyptian palace every day, and the stagnation of government affairs from all over Egypt was piled up. The disadvantages of the young pharaoh's single-handedly controlling the Egyptian government were fully revealed.

The ministers who have been accustomed to obeying orders are at a loss after losing the Pharaoh - not to say that the Egyptian ministers are useless people, but because all the power is controlled by the Pharaoh alone so that they cannot give orders without authorization. Therefore, they I can only watch the Egyptian government in a mess but feel powerless.

There are even signs of instability across Egypt.

"Let the younger brother manage the government on his behalf."

Unexpectedly, the first one to bring up such a thing was the great priest Seth, who was once the most opposed to the king's brother's access to rights.

"If something happens to the king, let the younger brother succeed him immediately."

"Seth, you—"

Perhaps because the sensitive nerves were stimulated by the word "unexpected" in that sentence, Mahat glared at Seth with an angry face.

"Mahat, now is not the time to be emotional! I don't want anything to happen to Wang either, but many things don't happen just because we hope."

The young high priest with tough azure pupils reprimanded the high priest Mahat who had been haggard because of worrying about the pharaoh's safety and exhaustion for days.

"We must now consider the worst and be prepared for it."

Seth's eyes moved to the silent Isis beside him, "What do you think? Isis."

Priestess looked much better than Mahat. During the days when Pharaoh fell, she looked as calm as ever.There is always a calm smile on that young and beautiful face, and he calmly deals with those people who come to make trouble.

Only her confidant and close female officer can detect the trace of exhaustion and worry she concealed when serving the priestess to fall asleep every night.

"You're right." Isis replied, extremely rare, but sighed deeply, "But Seth, it's useless, my brother won't stand up."

"This is his responsibility as the king's brother of Egypt." Seth replied.

"We are the only ones who think so..." Isis replied, "But you probably won't give up if you don't let you try it once, so just go if you want to."

Because he could probably guess what kind of dialogue between Seth and the younger brother would be, the priestess warned him in advance, "Seth, no matter what the younger brother said, you must not be rude."

The great priest Seth came to the residence of the Pharaoh.

Since the pharaoh fell into a coma, the young brother has been by the pharaoh's side.

Seth was full of confidence. He didn't think what Isis said was right—as the younger brother of Egypt, the only member of the royal family other than the Pharaoh, it was natural for the younger brother to govern on behalf of the Pharaoh, so how could he reject him as a member of the royal family? due responsibility.

"...don't go."

Brother Wang's understatement made Seth startled.

Then, an inexplicable anger rose from his heart.

"You are the king's brother of Egypt!"

"If Brother Wang is not here, why should I be this brother?... I can't bear the responsibility of Egypt, and I don't want to take it."

"It's not a question of whether you want to, but you have to do it!"

Seth took a step forward, staring at the opponent with a strong sense of oppression.

Facing Seth's aggressive words, the young prince at the moment seemed unable to summon up the energy to talk to him.

"Go away, Seth, I'm not in the mood to discuss things that have nothing to do with you now."

Seth fell silent.

However, this was not a compromise, but the burning anger blocked his throat in an instant.

The anger that filled his entire chest and even made his chest ache made him unable to even make a sound at that moment.

"……It doesn't matter?"

The young high priest finally let out a faint voice from his throat.

Seth's sky-colored pupils burned with an unprecedented flame of anger, and his cold tone became more and more dangerous.

The hand hanging by his side was tightly clenched and curled into a fist. It seemed to be convulsed, as if he was trying his best to suppress it from swinging out to beat someone.

Then, he let out a deep breath.

"Sorry."

He said, step forward.

In the astonished eyes of everyone, Seth suddenly reached out and hugged the king of Egypt directly on his shoulders, turned around and strode towards the door, completely ignoring how frightened the others would be caused by his actions.

"Your Royal Highness!"

"Lord Seth—"

The two guards guarding the door watched in astonishment as their respective masters came out of the room in completely different postures.

Absolutely impossible things suddenly appeared in front of them. This scene of extreme rebellion that challenged people's psychological limits made them stunned.

They stared blankly at the great Egyptian priest walking past them carrying the Egyptian prince on his back.

It wasn't until Priest Seth was about to walk out of their sight that their reflexes, which were several times duller than usual, made them understand what they saw.

Ke Ya, who had reacted, immediately ran to catch up with Seth's footsteps.

"Lord Seth! Please don't be rude to His Royal Highness!"

He shouted loudly, seeing that the great priest in front did not respond to his shout, he frowned, and drew out the long sword at his waist without hesitation.

Keng——

The crisp sound of metal impact resounded in the air.

"Kaya, stop!"

Sisi, who followed closely, raised the long sword in his hand and blocked Ke Ya's sword together with the scabbard.

"Calm down, Keya, it's impossible for Master Seth to hurt Brother Wang!"

"Master Seth is too presumptuous—"

It's a mess here, and the situation above the Egyptian palace hall is not much better.

Everyone's criticism has been concentrated on Mahat and Isis, and they are extremely dissatisfied with their concealment of the current situation of the Pharaoh.

Perhaps it should be said that it was extremely disturbing.

Three years ago, the bloody night in the capital of Egypt seemed to be just around the corner. If something happened to the pharaoh now, the scene of blood flowing into rivers back then would probably reappear again.

More importantly, the current pharaoh is too young to leave any heirs, let alone appoint a successor.

Once the power system centered on the pharaoh collapsed, not to mention the chaos in the capital, I am afraid that the whole of Egypt will immediately fall apart.

The main hall of the Egyptian royal palace, the majestic place that controls the supreme power of Egypt, if it is normal, the young pharaoh sits on the throne, it must be an extremely quiet place where he dare not even breathe loudly.

Now, here is like a market where Xixi is muttering, high-ranking priests or ministers are making loud noises, even scolding each other regardless of their status, and there are also people who stay silent and say nothing. A worried look.

Isis took a deep breath, suppressing the vague anger in his heart.

After all, being pointed at his nose and scolding him for betraying the Pharaoh, even the well-mannered Isis couldn't help but look annoyed, let alone Mahat, who was already pale.

Relying on her and Mahart's previous prestige, they suppressed the dissatisfaction and anxiety of the crowd for several days.

Today, I'm afraid it's already the limit.

If they don’t see the Pharaoh, the priests and ministers will not give up, but the current king——

Snapped!

A sudden loud noise stopped the noise in the boiling hall for a second, and everyone's eyes subconsciously turned to the source of the sound.

Priest Seth, who entered here from the side room of the main hall, stood with a frosty face, his cold gaze slowly sweeping over everyone.

There were fragments of ceramics under his feet. The huge delicate ceramic vase, one person tall, was crooked at his feet, half of which had been smashed, and the part that was trying to preserve its original appearance was also covered with cracks, which looked particularly miserable.

Obviously, it was Seth who kicked him down.

Although the maids on the side were frightened by the actions of the great priest Seth, they still ran over one after another, knelt on the ground and quickly cleaned up the fragments of the vase.

With a soft snort, Seth quickly walked towards the throne in the hall.

As soon as he moved, everyone realized that there was a person behind him.

Set held the man's hand tightly, as if forcing the man to follow behind him.

Blonde hair, familiar face.

Pharaoh?

Do not……

wrong!

Everyone who was originally surprised immediately saw that something was wrong.

Although he was very similar to the young Pharaoh, the immature face of the young man who was being dragged forward by Seth was enough for people to clearly recognize the difference between him and the Pharaoh.

Well, the answer is ready to come.

Even those people who have never met him but only heard the rumors immediately understood the identity of this young man.

The Egyptian prince who suddenly appeared in the Egyptian royal palace had many doubts, but for some reason he was favored by the Pharaoh——

The hall, which was shocked by Seth's actions and the boy dragged by Seth and was quiet, boiled again at this moment.

The high priest Seth walked all the way and resisted the king of Egypt under the eyes of everyone in astonishment. Afterwards, although he put the king down, he still firmly grabbed the king's hand and dragged him to the throne of the palace hall under.

"Nothing can justify you abandoning thousands of people in Egypt."

He pointed to the high throne with solemn eyes.

"Brother Wang, you should understand what you are shouldering at this moment."

The young king brother whose left hand was forcibly grabbed by Seth did not look at Seth, he lowered his head, and the poor quality of sleep for many days made his face obviously tired.

"The one who doesn't understand is you... Seth, I will never be able to replace Brother Wang."

He said, looking up, the light purple pupils slowly swept across the people who were familiar or unfamiliar in the hall.

"Let go, Seth."

He said in a soft and calm voice.

He shook off Seth's grip on his hand.

"Brother Wang—"

My heart sank heavily.

Originally thinking that Wang Di threw off his hand to leave without hesitation, Seth subconsciously stretched out his hand to Wang Di's back.

However, the hand protruded halfway, stopped in the air, and then slowly retracted.

Seth stood quietly, looking at the young brother's back, without saying a word.

With his back to everyone, the young prince walked towards the supreme throne step by step.

Eyes of astonishment, suspicion, worry, or dissatisfaction focused on him, piercing the pain.

Priestess's beautiful oasis-like pupils are gazing at the back of the Egyptian prince—on top of this majestic hall, in full view of everyone, what kind of situation can this prince, who completely pretends to be a commoner in a foreign country, do?

She thought it was too risky.

Maybe she shouldn't have sent Seth to this brother she couldn't trust in the first place.

You can feel the countless hot gazes gathered on him.

This seems familiar——

He closed his eyes.

"I can't compare to Haima, why did you choose me?"

He once said so, asking Isis to tell the reason for letting himself and another him duel at the gate of the underworld.

Isis did what he wanted and offered him an offer he couldn't refuse.

"Games, it's not that you can't beat hippocampus, you just haven't tried to do it."

However, Isis also once said the same thing.

He wondered if she was right.

He is just habitually dependent on another him.

No matter what dangers he encounters, the other him always protects him behind him without hesitation.

——It’s not that you can’t do it, it’s just that there is ‘him’, so you don’t have to do it——

Perhaps only after the other one left, he could understand how much wind and rain was blocked by the young pharaoh who always stood in front of him in an understatement no matter what happened.

He thought that he would never be better than the other him.

Another year after he was gone, he defeated Kaiba in the final of the Sky Arena.

In the huge arena, thousands of people cheered and shouted his name.

Yugi Muto, the well-deserved Yu-Gi-Oh.

"You can do it even if the other game isn't there."

At that time, Rebecca was standing next to him and said to him with a smile.

And he suddenly lost interest... At that moment, he lost something very important in his life forever.

He didn't know what it was, but he knew that he would never get it back.

That year, Yu-Gi-Oh Yugi Muto faded out of the dueling world amidst the voices of regret from everyone.

The young king of Egypt turned around.

His hand rested on the throne.

He just stood on the side of the throne, looking down at the people in the hall below.

Above the main hall and under the throne, countless fiery eyes watched his every move.

And brother Wang.

The astonishment on the faces of many people has been transformed into joy that seems to be relieved.

The royal family of Egypt, and the existence of the king's younger brother!
