The Heavenly Martial Empress Returns: An OP Xianxia Returnee LitRPG Chapter 132: The Merciless Egyptian Prince
-----
rneith, the princess of another parallel tiline from Earth, who had appeared from the gray gates ford by the Grandfather of Ti to hasten the destruction of Earth, ended up revealing her identity and her secrets to the Hunters of the city of Cairo.
Despite her being rather shy about it, once they opened up to her and she realized they weren’t actually bad people, she confessed to them where she ca from, while the hunters also shared their opinions and views about it.
“So you truly co from a much more technologically advanced society, a parallel world.” Mohad Khaled muttered, the association chairman of the city.
“We’ll have to keep this a secret. Other countries could try to kidnap rneith and steal her technology if more of her becos public.”
However, Ahd Mostafa, known as “The Blood Beast Berserk”, an S Rank Hunter, laughed at the chairman’s words.
“Don’t you think that’s a bit too late now, Mohad? Miss Princess over here can’t get away from the journalists, always showing her face on TV!”
The thug-like hunter wasn’t as respectful as the rest and often voiced his opinions and words without holding back.
“Ugh, okay, I admit I shouldn’t have done that!” rneith sighed. “But for now, I suppose most things are cleared, right? I don’t really have intentions of going back, so I hope you could let stay for a bit more.”
“Of course, I guess there’s no helping it then,” Heba Marwa, often known as “Queen of the Dunes”, an S Rank Hunter, seed to like rneith. “Maybe you could.”
Yet…
RUMBLE!
This civil conversation filled with revelations was suddenly interrupted as sothing above the skies suddenly erged.
Or, well, it seed as if it had materialized out of thin air! The people of El Cairo pointed at the sky in fear and awe.
A giant golden pyramid floated above the skies as several smaller silhouettes started flying off of it, going down into the city.
They were all huge chanical constructions—piloted robots!
rneith looked at the scene through the building’s window.
“Ah, this is bad.”
Her eyes seed to have widened as she saw what happened.
The ghosts of her past were finally coming for her.
The other Hunters panicked.
“What’s going on?!” Heba asked.
“That’s the pyramid?!” Mohad asked.
“Don’t tell they’re looking for you?!” Ahd wondered.
“rneith!”
Sara Asmaa, “The Sacred Child”, the fourth S-Rank Hunter of this city and the youngest, glanced at rneith, her face full of concern.
“T-This is all my fault… I have to take responsibility.”
rneith gritted her teeth, grasping her hands tightly.
“Eh? What do you an with…!”
FLASH!
She suddenly jumped out of the window, making the hunters panic.
“rneith?!”
However, as she fell, her Golden Bloodline activated.
An aura of gold and silver light surged from her body as a giant chanical god materialized around her body.
Ra, the God of the Sun!
It was never there to begin with, but just through a re command, the entity made of tal erged out of nowhere.
The Hunters couldn’t help but wonder if it was either stored in dinsional storage or if it simply materialized from magic or nanobots generated from rneith’s body; nobody knew how it even worked.
“I have to take responsibility for bringing them here…!” rneith thought. “I can’t let them do as they please, this city that welcod … these people that understood …! I must protect them!”
She flew into the skies with her fiery wings, confronting the group of dozens of chanical soldiers.
The group was led by a larger ch, one resembling her own in detail and height.
Yet this one was black and gold-colored, with its head resembling a jackal, wearing black armor, and holding a large, golden balance.
It emanated a powerful aura of Darkness, the complete opposite of Ra.
Indeed, there was only one God of Egyptian Mythology that fit such a being.
And rneith imdiately recognized it!
“T-That’s Anubis?!” The princess gasped. “Big brother Akhenaten... is it you?”
Akhenaten was rneith’s big brother, soone she both feared and hated.
A man ordered the princess around as if she were his slave, and he envied her for living without as many responsibilities as he did.
“Who else than , rneith?!”
His voice echoed from inside the chanical god, sending shivers down rneith’s spine all the way down to the tip of her tail.
It was indeed him.
“I have finally found you... You little brat. We’re going back ho, and you’re marrying that Roman prince!”
“No… I’ll never marry a Roman!”
She roared furiously; the princess wasn’t going to let others decide her life ever again.
“I am going to be free, and I will not follow your insanity anymore!”
Hearing his sister’s bold words, Akhenaten imdiately lost his cool, if he even had one to begin with.
“You’re really bold to say such blasphemy. You don’t deserve the power of the gods. The power of Ra would do much better in my hands!”
With a furious roar, her big brother rushed towards her, materializing a huge black and gold scythe.
The princess gasped, incapable of believing her brother would just co to kill her in cold blood!
“Are you really going to fight ?!”
rneith had no ti to think, materializing a spear made of flas and sunlight to defend.
CLAAASH!
An explosion of flas and light erupted as her brother was pushed back slightly. The might of Ra was greater than he had imagined, charging furiously at his sister might not have been the wisest decision.
“The flas of Ra are too strong!” he thought. “Anubis Dark Aura is rapidly decreasing…!”
The Dark Aura that Anubis, the chanical God created was a protective layer of dark matter that helped Akhenaten easily beco immune to most attacks, both physical and energy based.
However, it wasn’t invincible; Ra’s sunlight, in fact, was its worst match! Composed of a star’s plasma itself, it burned through the dark matter, vaporizing it.
“We don’t need to do this!” said rneith. “Please, let’s not fight! We’re both stranded here! We can’t go back ho yet, so it’s useless to fight between each other!”
"Useless, you say?!” laughed Akhenaten. “Has the lesser beings living in these sand lands weakened your heart? Or perhaps you were always this foolish, my sister? This is the perfect opportunity for to take Ra with ! I’ll just pretend you died in an accident! Hahah!”
“E-Eh?!”
rneith was shocked by what her brother had said. Although he had never shown a speck of love to her through their entire lives, at least she imagined he was still a decent human being and that he wouldn’t go as far as killing his own sister.
But she was wrong; the corruption of their family had even reached the princes and princesses, and with many heirs inheriting the Golden Bloodline, the only way to truly obtain a chanical God was simple.
To eliminate one another!
“You already have Anubis! Why do you want Ra too?! Isn’t one enough?!”
“It’s never enough! Also, Ra is not yours! You stole him when you ran away! He actually belongs with my mother! Therefore, it belongs to as well!”
“T-That’s not true! Ra was piloted by MY mom!”
Although they were siblings sharing a single father, their mothers were different mistresses of the King. rneith’s mother had died several years ago, and Ra once belonged to her.
However, after her mother’s passing, her brother’s mother took Ra as her trophy, which, unlike rneith’s mother, was barely used for battle and only used as a trophy she showcased around her palace.
“Your mother only used the chanical God as a trophy! Ra is made to fight and protect its people!” rneith cried, and her blazing spear continued to pierce through Anubis dark matter veil.
However…
“chanical Gods are our tools, you foolish brat!”
With a furious roar, the Egyptian prince unleashed his Golden Bloodline’s Ability, infusing it into the chanical God Anubis, whose entire body started to tremble, releasing sparks of electricity.
“{Golden Bloodline}: {Ma’at Insurance}”
RUMBLE!
Anubis exuded a white aura combined with its black aura. rneith gasped. She realized her brother used the Golden Bloodline Ability, a power everyone who held this bloodline could unleash within chanical Gods.
Unfortunately for her, she had no idea what her brother’s power was, and to make things worse, she had yet to awaken her own!
“Insurance, what does that an?!”
As she was confused, Anubis rushed towards her, swinging its giant scythe at the sa ti as its dark matter aura transford into large jackals, barking, and trying to bite and attack Ra.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
“Aah!”
rneith panicked slightly, stepping back as she used her blazing spear and Ra’s mighty wings for protection. The barrage of blows was intense, although she noticed Anubis had not grown any stronger.
“Was he just bluffing?!”
As she thought so, she rushed forward, swinging her spear and destroying the jackals one after another. Explosions of flas and darkness erupted in the sky.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Akhenaten smiled as his large scythe was pushed back and cracks appeared over the futuristic chanical weapon. As Anubis was pushed back, its greatest power, the Dark Matter Veil, was useless against Ra’s Sun Plasma.
Yet… he smiled!
“Heh! Thank you! I’ll be adding that to the insurance cost!”
“Insurance…?!”
rneith didn’t understand but quickly realized that sothing, a mysterious power, manifested itself, encompassing her entire body and that of Anubis.
Suddenly, she felt as if Ra had beco slower and heavier, while at the sa ti, Anubis grew stronger, faster, and swifter.
Then, she noticed a large number above Anubis.
[Ma’at Insurance: 1 Points]
The number kept increasing, she noticed it did based on her own attacks against Anubis.
[Ma’at Insurance: 10 Points]
[Ma’at Insurance: 20 Points]
[Ma’at Insurance: 30 Points]
[Ma’at Insurance: 40 Points]
[…]
At the end, it ended at a staggering number!
[Ma’at Insurance: 100 Points]
“Huh?!”
And then…
[Subtracting Insurance from target. 100 Points of Power have been taken and granted to the affected party.]
FLUOSH!
And then it was when Ra’s powers weakened even further!
“Ra?!”
rneith gasped, as she had realized too late that she had fallen for her brother’s sche all along.
The power of his Golden Bloodline allowed him to create an insurance he would have to be paid based on the damage he received.
The more damage he takes, the more insurance the attacking party must pay!
It weakens his foe while granting him strength.
This was the power of Ma’at, the God of Truth and Justice of Egyptian Mythology.
“C-CRAAAHH…!”
Ra groaned. The chanical Gods were sentient beings of their own, groaning in pain. The gigantic bird god seed to be growing weaker; its flas turned smaller, and its radiance flickered.
“Hahaha! HAHAHAH!”
Akhenaten laughed maniacally as he saw the city of El Cairo being attacked by his troops, almost a hundred chs piloted by his soldiers continued destroying buildings, the people below panicked, screaming, and running away.
“Look what you’ve provoked, rneith! This is all your fault! Now all these rats are going to die because of YOU!”
“N-No…! Leave them out of this, brother!”
rneith cried, rushing towards her brother with all her machine’s strength, which had been reduced to half. Her giant blazing spear moved towards Anubis.
“If you attack , you’ll only make stronger!”
“I know.”
“Huh?!”
FLASH!
Akhenaten suddenly gasped; the blazing spear rneith sent towards him actually missed him, flying towards a group of piloted chs, resembling humanoid sphynxes and black jackals.
And then…
BOOOMMM!!!
They blew up into pieces, the spear exploding and disintegrating them all.
The prince’s eyes widened.
“You dare kill your nation’s soldiers?! Are you insane? How much of a traitor have you beco?!”
“They’re not my soldiers; they’re yours!” roared rneith. “And if they dare kill these innocent people, then, as you said, I’ll take responsibility! Even if I must declare my betrayal against you all, I shall! These people... had been nicer to in these few days than any of you bastards were for years! I hold no bonds with you, brother!”
“Hah! So you’re finally showing your true colors, always hiding behind that façade of a cute and innocent princess! You’re nothing but a snake, rneith!”
Her brother rushed towards her as both chanical Gods clashed above the skies, explosions of flas and darkness erupting with each blow.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Both siblings clashed against one another; rneith simply defended, while Anubis constantly went on the offensive.
Her sharp eyes weren’t as foolish as her brother thought; he couldn’t trick her, making her believe his power was invincible.
With each powerful blow she received from him...
[Ma’at Insurance: 100 Points]
[Ma’at Insurance: 97 Points]
[Ma’at Insurance: 94 Points]
[Ma’at Insurance: 91 Points]
[Ma’at Insurance: 88 Points]
The insurance count went down, and she gained a tiny bit of power back!
“So that’s how it works,” she thought. “Still! It’s such a cheat!”
Thankfully, Ra was among the three toughest chanical Gods in her world, and it could withstand even the blows from a powered Anubis with ease.
She quickly flew across the skies using her fiery wings, rushing down and destroying the chs from her brother’s army, managing to stop so of the destruction.
“Stop that, you snake!” With a furious roar, Akhenaten unleashed an ability from Anubis.
“{Shrouding Death}!”
FLUOSH!
The chanical claws of Anubis conjured endless Dark Matter, wrapping around rneith completely.
“W-What…?!”
The princess was caught off-guard and unable to escape before she was captured within a black bubble.
“Hahaha! I got her!”
As the brother celebrated, suddenly.
CRASH!
“Ungh?!”
A giant fist made of the sands of the desert surrounding El Cairo erged, punching his gigantic chanical god away.
“Let that girl go, NOW!”
A furious black woman erged; the sands of the desert were her domain.
And while being carried by her sands, several other figures erged.
The hunters in El Cairo were not going to just sit down and watch.
“Pathetic lesser ones... Your death shall be swift!”
