Chapter 20 The Angry Set

“Horus is preparing to go to the Evernight Kingdom?”

Upon hearing this, Set was overjoyed.

He was originally worried that if Horus continued to attach himself to his physical body, with Set’s strength in the human world, he would never be able to defeat Horus.

If that were the case, dealing with Horus would become extremely troublesome.

However, now that Horus was preparing to head to the Evernight Kingdom, the situation was very different.

After all, the Evernight Kingdom didn’t have a corresponding location in the real world.

If a god wanted to enter the Evernight Kingdom, he had to separate from his body in the human world.

So, if Horus really wanted to go to the Evernight Kingdom, then he could just wait for him at the border.

As long as Horus lost the protection of his powerful human body, it would be as easy as lifting a finger for Set to kill him!

Thinking of this, Set immediately said to Tefnut,”I’ve never heard of Horus going to the Evernight Kingdom.”

“But I do have the idea of going to the border of the Evernight Kingdom recently.”

“Tsk tsk, if I really did meet Horus without knowing, that would be too much of a coincidence!”

After hearing that, Tefnut smiled in satisfaction.

“It is indeed a coincidence. I can only say that poor Horus is too unlucky!”

After that, the goddess quietly left Set’s palace and returned home.

According to Egypt mythology, if a god wanted to enter the Evernight Kingdom, they had to first pass through the River of Ra and head to the Kingdom of Unus at the border of the Evernight Kingdom.

In order to make it easier for everyone to go, God Ra, after much consideration, decided to send his subordinate, God Anet, to drive the Sun Ark, which he usually led the sun to rise from the east and set from the west, to carry them.

When Tan Weili stepped onto the Sun Ark, he saw a fat god with green scales all over his body and a crocodile head sitting at the bow.

“Hey! You must be Horus, right? I heard that you defeated that old b*stard, Set. Well done!”

When Tan Weili stepped onto the ark, the crocodile-headed god immediately greeted him.

Tan Weili naturally recognized this god.

It was the god of the crocodiles, Sobek, who was responsible for protecting sailors in Egyptian mythology.

In the records of Egyptian mythology, Sobek was the son of Set and Neith, the Goddess of the Hunt.

However, in the conflict between Set and Horus, he did not stand on his father’s side. Instead, he protected Horus when he was young and prevented him from being harmed by Set.

He would also assist him in his fight against Set.

Therefore, in Tan Weili’s eyes, Sobek was a friend that he could trust.

Because of their relationship, Tan Weili immediately replied, “Hello, Sobek. Say hello to Goddess Neith for me. After I’m done with my work, I’ll probably go to Zawu to visit her.”

Zawu was a fertile Delta area in the Nile River, and also the center of Neith’s faith.

However, in the later years of history, the name of this place would change many times, and it was finally named Neith to commemorate its position as the center of the Goddess Neith’s faith!

Hearing Tan Weili’s words, Sobek was overjoyed. After all, as a Pharaoh of Egypt, the political and religious implications of his visit to Neith were self-evident.

As long as the man visited Neith, Sobek believed that his mother would soon be able to move from the edge of to the center of faith as an Egyptian god.

Even though Set had ignored the rules set by God Ra and killed his brother to seize the position, it had caused public anger.

Even his son, Sobek, parted ways with Set out of morality.

He had not helped Horus for the sake of benefits.

However, the other party’s promise was also something to be happy about.

At this moment, Anet, who was in charge of steering the Sun Ark, also interrupted, “Your Highness Horus, the concept of justice that you explained in Ra’s temple has really benefited me greatly!”

“Do you really think that only things that satisfy the interests of the majority can be called justice?” Tan Weili said calmly, “If someone can still claim to be on the side of justice after harming the interests of most people, then he will be the most hypocritical guy I have ever seen.”

After a pause, Tan Weili suddenly remembered that the boatman who drove the Sun Ark seemed to be a greedy person.

Considering that he had been driving the Sun Ark for God Ra all year round, he was a typical low-status god with great power, which was worth recruiting.

So he also expressed his goodwill to God Anet,”It’s hard for God Anet to sail the ship for God Ra.”

“If you’re free in the future, why don’t you come to my palace for a gathering?”

Hearing this, Anet instantly smiled.

According to Osiris’ past management, when a pharaoh invited other gods to a banquet in the capital, there would definitely be a celebration related to it.

Since Horus had invited him, this meant that the local priests and people would also offer sacrifices to him.

So Anet immediately said, “How could I refuse Your Highness’ kind invitation? I will definitely go!”

Seeing that Tan Weili had pulled Sobek and Anet into his battlefield with just a few words, Bastet, who was on the side, was amazed.

She didn’t expect that this guy was not only good at massaging, but also good at socializing. He could easily make friends with strangers he had only met once.

But why did this fellow not know his limits and like to touch her stomach so much?

Son

How annoying!

Clearly, one shouldn’t randomly touch another’s stomach!

The fact that Ra’s Sun Ark could travel to the far east and land in the far west in a day showed that it was quite fast.

After a while, Anet drove it to the end of the River of Ra, to the independent Kingdom of Unus, which was located on the border between the Evernight Kingdom and Egypt.

Anet said, “Your Highness Horus, the ruler of the Evernight Kingdom, Apep, is the mortal enemy of God Ra.”

“If I were to sail the Sun Ark into the Kingdom of Unus, it would definitely cause chaos.”

“That’s why, I can only bring you here.”

Tan Weili didn’t mind.

He said politely,”I’ve really troubled you along the way.”

“Don’t forget to come to my palace when you have time. I’ll definitely set up a banquet to entertain you.”

“Definitely!”Anet said.

After everyone got off the ship and said goodbye to Anet, Tan Weili looked at Sobek.

He asked the crocodile god, “Sobek, do you want to follow me into the Evernight Kingdom?”

Hearing this, Sobek calmly said, “I despise Set’s violence and I am ashamed that this kind of person is my father.”

“So, please let me help you defeat Set and let him receive the punishment he deserves.”

Eh?

Upon hearing this, Set, who had arrived at the border of the Evernight Kingdom and was hiding there, was dumbfounded.

He didn’t expect that his son would stand on the opposite side of him and help his enemy!

A burst of anger rose in Set’s heart.

He immediately stood up from his hiding place and said to Tan Weili and the others, “Very good! Very good! Horus, I didn’t expect you to be so good at deluding others and making my son my enemy!”

“Sobek, it seems like I’ve been too indulgent with you! From today onwards, I will lock you up until you repent for your betrayal!”

“And you, Bastet! I’m going to eat you, you d*mn cat! As long as I’m here, no other Gods of War are allowed to exist in this world!”
