From Concubine to Pharaoh [Transmigration Book]

Amon?

Ailixi quickly searched for this name in the original body's memory.

The strange thing is that the original body doesn't seem to have the slightest impression of this god.On the contrary, Erich herself seems to have heard this name in the real world——

This should be a late-born god-this explains why Erich can read about Amon from the books of later generations.But the original body in this era knew nothing about it.

"Excuse me, which god is God Amon?"

Alicia asked this question calmly.

This is more in line with the original personality.

The kobold nodded knowingly: "God Amon is the god who is rising in Thebes. It is normal that you don't know much about this god when you are in Egypt."

"But he is the only god who is willing to support you as pharaoh."

Alicia nodded reservedly: "He is very discerning."

The god Anubis made Wolf Kiss twitch, obviously not knowing how to evaluate it.

"Then I can understand that you are willing to accept his favor and become his favored person, thus joining the ranks of the great Asut?"

"Yes..." Alicia nodded.

Does she have any other choice?

She had her bottom line, and above this bottom line, she placed her bet and let go, but she didn't know in advance that the Egyptians would be so taboo about having a woman ascend the throne.The surprise cut her chances.

With the current result—Ailixi thinks it is completely acceptable, and even feels that she is quite lucky: even after this, there are still gods who are willing to take care of her. She should indeed have some unusual potential to be favored by the gods.

"What you have to do now is to surrender your name to the gods and make a contract with the gods. When you become the favored person of God Amon, the gods will give you a certain amount of ba in the shortest possible time to help you release The current crisis..."

The Angel of Anubis introduced to Erich the process of investing in the gods' favored ones.

"But the worship center of God Amon is mainly in Upper Egypt, and Memphis is half an Egyptian distance away from Him. There may be a certain degree of delay before you get enough ba. You need to find a way to spend this time by yourself. "

"Of course, if you can use your ingenuity, it would be even better to figure out a way out by yourself. You can try to pray to the gods, but you may not get a response."

Alicia was speechless.

Although the kobolds put it mildly, the truth is:

Now the only person who is willing to invest in Ailixi is an unknown little god with a long distance and limited ability.

She has already become the favored person of the gods, and she still has to rely on herself - if other Asuts know about this treatment, I wonder if they will laugh at her.

But Alicia gritted her teeth: the investment received at the weak stage, no matter how much or how much, is called angel investment.

She nodded slightly: "I am willing to accept. When I regain my freedom, I am also willing to go to Upper Egypt to pay respects to the gods I worship."

As soon as Alixi finished speaking, it seemed as if a needle had pierced her brow quickly, causing her to feel a sharp pain instantly, causing her to close her eyes tightly.

As the sharp pain rippled round and round in her mind, the pain finally gradually eased.

Alicia heard a humble whisper in her mind: "Ailixi, Alixi..."

It was her own voice!

This voice was like an ethereal wind, whirling in place, echoing in her mind all the time.

Is this dedicating one's name to the gods?

Give me my name...Alich...

Miraculously, she still retains a ray of clarity.

She was even able to complain about herself: it was because she transmigrated a character with the same name and surname as herself.Otherwise, her subconscious mind wouldn't be able to react at all, and she might say, no, I don't have that name...

However... she did have another name...

All the things that I don't want to recall all surfaced from the depths of my consciousness in an instant.

At that time, her parents hadn't completely separated... She knew that she was the biggest obstacle and burden between them.Because both of them said that they couldn't be happy and it was all her fault...

Alicia closed her eyes, with crystal tears hanging from her long eyelashes.

Now, parents should have found their own happiness, right?

And she, she was finally no longer a barrier between them - she didn't even exist in their world.

The little girl who used to bury her sorrow in her heart all day long has disappeared forever with the abandonment of her original name.

She has been Erich since then, as written by a certain writer in later generations: to be a steadfast messenger of loneliness, to walk through life alone without anyone caring, to talk to herself without anyone listening, to endure pain without anyone Human pity ①.

She is about to become a struggler and struggler in a different world, cut off all the ties of the past, full of fighting spirit, and live completely for herself.

"Princess Erich, congratulations, the divine deed has been concluded, and you are now an Asut."

When Erich opened her eyes again, she saw the jackal head of Anubis envoy stuck in front of her, and a pair of wolf eyes were looking at her with concern without blinking.

Probably because at this moment her face was covered with tears, and the wolf eyes of the envoy were full of sympathy.

"The moment of becoming a god's favor is indeed painful."

"It will make you have to re-face the memories you don't want to face in your life..."

The kobold looked empathetic, so that Erich was a little curious about what the envoy recalled when he first became a god's favor.

But Alicia immediately had another thought: she immediately raised her right arm, wanting to see her chin, her luck, her good luck buff.Has she fully recovered as she became a member of Asut.

The result was very disappointing: the brilliance on her right arm was still only a little between the elbows, very weak, and looked like it would go out at any moment.

This even affected the blood bar on her left arm, and her card also started to decrease quietly. It seems that before she wore it, the original body had already consumed too much energy and energy.

Seeing this, the kobold comforted: "Please wait patiently."

"The ba is a direct reflection of the individual's fortune; but the gods often focus on the overall situation, and only after the impact on the overall situation reaches the individual, will it be directly reflected in the individual's ba."

Ailixi is inevitably depressed: It is very fast to sign a divine contract in exchange for names, but it is so troublesome to give it to the divine favor?

This is like an investor who is very enthusiastic about claiming the investment, but procrastinates when it comes time to transfer the funds?

Pharaoh Delos has made up his mind to send her to the underworld, and she must find a way to escape before being mummified.

For a while, the Angel of Anubis bid her farewell, and Erich volunteered to send her off, actually wanting to get out of the house where she had been imprisoned for so long.

"You may take this opportunity to see the embalmer's workshop—"

Kobold advice goes so far.

"Outside the workshop, there are all Pharaoh's guards. If you go out rashly, the embalmer master and apprentice may start work early."

Alicia: ...

Following the kobold, Alicia stepped out of the cell where she was held for the first time after wearing the book.

The embalmer master and apprentice respectfully knelt at her feet to greet her—even if the relationship between her and the pharaoh was complicated, ordinary people had to give her the respect that belonged to members of the royal family.

"By the way, the statue specially sculpted for you by the pharaoh has also been delivered..." The kobold reminded a moment too late, and Erich was already taken aback by her face-to-face encounter.

It was a fully life-size painted sculpture in the shape of a young beauty - Erich almost greeted it as if it were a real person.

"Tsk tsk tsk..." the kobold sighed, "Princess, look how much it looks like you!"

The embalming master and apprentice echoed in unison: "It's exactly like you!"

"You set off with this statue, and you will surely obtain eternal life smoothly."

The Egyptians believed that statues, like mummies, were also shelters for souls.In case the mummy is damaged during the production process, the statue will replace the mummy to carry the soul.Therefore, the Egyptians attached great importance to the production of statues.

A noble figure like Elyse can naturally have a perfectly carved and drawn statue.

Therefore, although there is no mirror here, Erich finally sees her current image.

The statue in front of her was as tall as her, with black hair, neatly cut at the end, hanging behind her shoulders.

Her face is small, her complexion is a warm and healthy wheat color, her red lips are gorgeous, her eyes are lined with malachite eyeliner, and her cheeks are even slightly bulging delicately.

The statue wears a colorful headdress made of seven-colored bird feathers, and a long one-piece skirt often worn by Egyptian women, with sparkling gemstone skirt studs embedded all over the skirt.These garments are cut to fit and frame the original figure.

What a rare beauty—no wonder the young apprentice looked at it with such amazement and fascination.

Erich's eyes moved, and the moving eyes of the statue seemed to be chasing her, staring at her.

It turns out that the eyes of the statue are made of polyhedral crystal gemstones embedded with quartz, which can reflect light, so the statue looks so realistic②.

Alicia: The pharaoh really has a heart - he prepared her a soul carrier so early.

The production cycle of such a fine statue must be very long, and the craftsman will definitely visit her often.But the original body was so stupid, didn't notice it at all?

The envoy of Anubis added: "This is what Pharaoh personally instructed the craftsmen to do for you..."

Alicia could only remain silent——

Pharaoh Delos could remember every detail of her appearance in his heart, and instructed the craftsmen to make a lifelike statue, but he could also hate her and send her to death with his own hands.

Whether this is love or hate, how much love or hate, maybe the parties themselves can't tell clearly.

After the Angel of Anubis left, there were only three people left in the embalmer's workshop, the master and the apprentice and Elyse, and the scene was once very awkward.

A young embalmer apprentice volunteered to introduce the process of making mummies to Erich: "First apply turpentine to the face to protect the facial image of the deceased..."

Unexpectedly, Alixi had listened to it through the door panel once, and she could almost recite it.

She said: the memory of hearing and photographic memory are the basic qualities of an excellent librarian.

So the embalmer apprentice scratched his head, and took Erich to visit the purification pool——

This purification pool is not a real pool. There is no water in the pool, but it is filled with a drug whose main component is soda ash. The water-absorbing properties of this drug are used to slowly dehydrate the mummy.

The purification pool was not prepared for Erich alone. At this moment, there were still several mummies being purified in the pool.

One of them raised its arm in front of Alicia unexpectedly, which startled Alixi.

"It does happen sometimes, it's normal—"

The young embalmer explains to Erich.

This is because during the purification process, the degree of dehydration of the mummified musculature is not uniform throughout the body, so a normal reaction occurs.

"Thank you for your explanation."

Erich tried hard to convince herself that the book runner believed in science.

Not long after, the elder embalmer strode in from the outside, bowed to Elyse, and informed her with sympathy: "The king has ordered."

Alicia: ...

She was not surprised, because she knew about Delos' decision;

She didn't show fear either, because being afraid wouldn't help her in any way.

She lowered her head and glanced, the fluorescent pillar between her elbows was still the same.

Ba, who represents her luck, is still unstoppable, pitifully small.

If God Amon, who had signed a divine contract with her before, did not complete the capital injection, this newly-baked disciple would really report to the underworld.

"Where do you want us to cut the knife from later on, the left side or the right side? Please just ask. We are willing to fulfill your wish."

The older embalmers began asking these personal questions in an effort to provide her with a perfectly tailored journey into mummification.

Alicia smiled reservedly, did not answer, and asked after a while: "You two, have you ever encountered a situation where everything was prepared, but the service to send the dead to the road was suddenly interrupted?"

She was looking for a way out for herself, trying to find a way to save herself.

Both master and apprentice were stunned at the same time, the young one looked blank, but the elder stretched out his hand and scratched the back of his head, and said, "It really happened."
