Episode 107
“Do you want me to kill Hathor?”
I asked back, putting my phone in my pants.
Good timing.
As soon as I received the call from Hathor seeking the death of Horus, I see that Sekhmet came to me.
“okay. My alter ego, Hathor, the god of love. “She is a woman who is now sad and angry over the death of her husband.”
Hathor, god of love.
In Egyptian mythology, he was a god who symbolized marriage, love, and abundance.
Wife of Horus and daughter of Ra.
When she wears the head of a cow, she symbolizes love and abundance, but when she wears the head of a lioness, she becomes Sekhmet, who commits revenge and massacre.
In the original myth, Sekhmet and Hathor were gods who shared the same body, but had different personalities.
However, it was a famous story that two gods with different deities were separated due to the method of unity and unity pursued by the sun god Ra.
As their originally one body split into two, their godhood also weakened.
To be exact, Sekhmet.
Hathor is a high-level god, and Sekhmet is a middle-level god.
Hathor, who originally had a lot of people’s faith, retained most of the deity and faith, and Sekhmet, who ruled the people with fear, lost most of his power.
Sekhmet was always jealous of Hathor.
Later, after Horus was killed by the Nightmare, he completely consumed her in his vengeance.
‘This too must be the effect of the future changing.’
I knew she would be targeting Hathor, but I didn’t know that she would come to me as soon as I spread the word that I would kill the god through Loki.
“Why aren’t you saying anything? “Are you having trouble with higher-ranking gods?”
she said with a smile.
“Not really. “But I don’t know what they can give me.”
“what?”
I said, tapping my foot.
“As you know, I killed Ares, who was already close to being a high-ranking god. “I don’t think there’s anything I can get from you, a fellow intermediate god, right?”
“… “You’re arrogant when it comes to humans.”
“Have you forgotten that that person might be stronger than you?”
“… … .”
She closed her mouth.
Because it wasn’t wrong.
“So, you’re going to refuse?”
“No. I’m asking you to tell me what you can give me. “Something that appeals to me.”
“bouncer.”
“Are you planning on coming all the way here and backing out?”
Sekhmet bit his lip.
“The fact that you came all the way here means you were in a hurry. “There is one of two reasons.”
I smiled lightly and continued.
“Either Horus’s death has caused Hathor to become enraged and pose a threat to your existence, or perhaps she thought now was the best opportunity?”
He didn’t answer, but his feelings were already revealed in his expression.
“That’s the one that’s urgent. Don’t expect me to accept your offer out of fear of Zeus’s bounty. “If you were afraid of that, you wouldn’t have killed Ares.”
“you… .”
Sekhmet, who was gritting his teeth, looked at Fenrir growling next to me and closed his mouth.
“… Ok, fine. “What do you want?”
The attitude changed immediately.
It seemed like they had finally realized who was A and who was E.
“I swear that you will grant my one wish just as I granted yours.”
“That’s it?”
“okay. All you have to do is swear by the cycle of your soul’s existence.”
Birth, life, and rebirth after death.
It was the cycle of existence that the Egyptian gods considered most important.
The unending permanence of life.
I am now telling you to swear on Sekhmet’s soul.
“How do you know what favor to ask?”
“I won’t ask you to do the impossible. “I won’t ask you to make any unreasonable requests, like asking me to kill a certain god.”
Sekhmet closed his mouth.
“So what do I get?”
“The Death of Hathor.”
“Are you sure?”
“of course.”
He kills Hathor as she wishes.
There was not a single lie in those words.
“How can I believe this?”
Instead of answering, I took out my cell phone and handed it to her.
A text message from Hathor.
The corner of Sekhmet’s mouth rose when he saw that text.
“Ha, fun. “There was a reason you were confident?”
“If you do not accept my conditions, I will run to Hathor immediately and tell him this.”
“… … .”
Of course, I really had no intention of filing a complaint.
If you think about it, she is my first client.
Because you can’t start with the first client.
‘I can scare you.’
Hathor had to die anyway, even if she didn’t ask for it.
Since he had killed Horus, it was his inevitable fate to fight Hathor.
“Hator, that bitch acts quickly too. “I saw that you contacted me immediately after hearing that you had killed the night monster.”
Is it because they are different personalities coming from the same body?
I stared at Sekhmet, who was silent.
After thinking for a moment, she nodded and held out her cell phone to me.
“There is no other way. Okay, okay. “But I won’t kill God or do anything that would lower my status.”
And she left.
“Kill me as quickly as possible. “I’m in a hurry too.”
Fenrir asked as he looked at the spot where Sekhmet disappeared.
-Isn’t this helping you for free?
“That’s not right.”
On the contrary, Sekhmet may regret signing a contract with me in the future.
-What are you planning to ask for?
“It’s simple. Supporting what I do.”
-… Are you saying we should support humans who kill God?
“okay. All it takes is just one word. “A word that puts your soul on the line.”
It won’t harm her status.
It would not be a matter of directly killing God.
However, there will be many enemies.
-That’s vicious.
“To survive as a human being, you have to become vicious.”
Hathor.
A new goal has emerged.
A god who seeks revenge for the death of Horus.
And the God I will soon meet.
Why?
I opened my phone.
A call from an unknown number.
Hathor’s text.
I replied to her.
* * *
Hathor came to our house with a group of women who were her attendants and apostles.
Hathor’s skin was as white as snow, and her black eyes sparkled like jewels.
As the saying goes, Aphrodite is to Greece, Freya is to Northern Europe, and Hathor is to Egypt. She had a dazzlingly beautiful appearance.
“It’s surprising. That such an ordinary person could single-handedly annihilate an entire religious order… .”
A look of confusion was evident on Hathor’s face when he saw me.
“I guess you expected a different image.”
I used a clear respectful term for Hathor.
If Sekhmet had heard, he would have gone on a rampage.
-Why are you treating me so rudely, but being so polite to that bitch?
Since the words that come are good, the words that go are bound to be good.
“yes. I expected him to be someone who receives support from a strong god, but Mr. Dojin’s appearance seemed… .”
“Are you saying you’re no different from ordinary people?”
“I’m sorry if it sounded that way.”
The strength she spoke of did not mean physically.
It meant that there was no trace of another god in my soul.
The souls of those who have been blessed by God contain some of the divinity of the God who granted them the blessing.
Some say it is a scent, others say it is a trace of the soul.
Through this, Hathor confirmed whether there was a god supporting me.
“You said you wanted to hear about Horus, right?”
“yes. “I want to hear the story from the person who avenged him for me.”
Hathor’s hand holding the coffee cup trembled.
“But can you trust me?”
“yes?”
“I am a human whom Zeus ordered to be exterminated.”
“He’s just a Greek god. “Only Ra can give me orders.”
She was still looking at me while drawing a line, saying that she was a separate god.
“So what happened? “Have you seen anything?”
“Is it because you don’t have anyone to take revenge on?”
“It’s not like that. It’s just that he disappeared without a body. In order for his soul to circulate and exist in the afterlife, he must collect the body and perform a rite.”
Hathor swallowed her sadness and took a deep breath.
Of course, I don’t think that’s all true.
“I didn’t see anything exactly. “It seemed like Horus was already dead when I defeated the Night Monster.”
“… is that so.”
“But. “I definitely saw one there.”
“What is it?”
“The Eye of Horus was placed on their altar.”
At those words, Hathor’s eyes turned to me.
“What did you do?”
Instead of answering, I activated the Eye of Horus that was engraved on my left eye.
[Falcon of the Sky – S Class]
[Skill: Eye of Horus]
[Wear the Eye of Horus, which symbolizes wisdom and the moon.]
[Effect 1: You can analyze and use magic formulas of level 5 or lower.]
[Effect 2: Familiar – Can share the familiar’s field of vision.]
[???: It is sealed. If you wear the Eye of Ra, you will be liberated.]
A skill that allows you to analyze and use all magic of level 5 or lower.
The Eye of Horus, obtained from Horus after killing him.
The eyes of the wizard who pursued truth and providence sparkled.
“Ah, ah… .”
Hathor sighed when she saw my eyes shining.
Hathor is a god who is said to have cured the eyes of Horus, who had been blinded by Set.
There was no way she wouldn’t notice these eyes.
“Really. The story of Horus being attacked by those apostates… .”
Tears flowed from her eyes as she closed them tightly.
Clear tears flowed down my cheeks and dripped onto my chin.
It was the death of Horus, her husband for over thousands of years of Egyptian history.
You can’t even imagine how deep that sadness is.
She, who had been silently crying out her sadness, slowly opened her eyes and asked me.
“You didn’t sense any sign of Horus. “How could you have his eyes?”
“Because I wasn’t blessed. “I discovered snow, and in the process, I was able to obtain this eye.”
When she heard what I said, she closed her mouth and nodded silently.
“okay. Then please give me those eyes. “I will reward you generously.”
“That can’t be possible.”
“Why?”
“Because it has already become one with my eyes.”
There was no way to physically remove the Eye of Horus obtained through the skill.
I can’t give it to you even if you tear out my eyes yourself.
“Then I guess I’ll have no choice but to take it out myself.”
Madness began to appear in Hathor’s eyes.
I knew it would be like this.
It is difficult to find respect for humans among the gods who descended on this world in the first place.
“Thank you.”
“yes?”
“Because you are no different from other gods.”
Hathor’s eyes narrowed.
“What does that mean?”
“Thanks to you, I feel a little lighter.”
I was a little suspicious of his polite attitude.
Could it be that there are good people among the gods?
do.
No matter what the process was, it was true that it was a little detrimental because of the presence of Athena and Yggdrasil who helped me.
However, when I met Hathor, I realized it again.
In the end, these are beings who look at humans like insects.
I drew my sword.
“It’s a refusal.”
“of course.”
“I didn’t want to fight with the person who brought me news about my husband.”
Hathor’s eyes changed.
It was similar to Sekhmet’s.
