Chapter 632 - 628: Tomb Of Gods?
" Don't worry; I haven't forgotten a single thing. I remember everything," Chaos answered.
"And you're still not worried?" the God of Foresight asked grimly.
"Why should I be?" Chaos asked, shaking his head. "Anyway, it's not the time to talk about that. I came here to get an answer from you."
"What answer?" The God of Foresight asked, frowning.
"Where is my Sword hidden? No matter what I try, I can't sense it. Where is everyone keeping it?" Chaos asked the God of Foresight.
"Your sword? I don't know," The God of Foresight replied..
His answer made Chaos sigh. "Are you really going to act ignorant? Don't you know what the outcome of that can be?"
"You'll kill me? As you said, I only have one year left. I'm already a dead man, living on a borrowed life span. I don't think death threats will work on me," the Lord of Space continued, smiling.
"Then what will work on you? You know I wouldn't want to hurt your heirs, but you also know that it's not impossible, don't you? All your heritage will be gone. I feel bad threatening you like that, but that's what I'll do if you don't answer," Chaos warned the God of Foresight.
He casually waved his hand, making a mirror appear out of thin air. The mirror started showing the disciples of the God of Foresight.
"You really have fallen," the God of Foresight muttered, shaking his head.
"It's just that I can't afford to wait anymore. Since she is back, he will return soon too. I can't relax," Chaos answered, pointing towards the beautiful woman who was standing behind him.
"Also, I'm only asking about something that belongs to me. Tell me where it is? Where is my Sword?" he repeated his question.
"I'll say the same thing I said last time. I don't know where that sword is. That Sword was taken by the High Council, who were to decide what was to be done with the sword. After that, I didn't bother to keep an eye. I'm not sure where they kept the sword or if it even exists by now," Lord of Foresight answered, sighing.
"No matter how you threaten me, I can't tell you something that I don't know myself," he further added.
"The High Council, huh? So they also decided to put their nose where they don't belong? Then so be it." Chaos turned around, frowning.
"Epimetheus, remember. Don't make the same mistake as they did. And your lineage will keep on living even after your death. But if you did involve yourself, let alone your lineage, even your name will disappear forever," he reminded before he disappeared with the woman.
As Chaos left, the God of Foresight finally sighed a breath of relief. The kids were safe.
"The Queen of Reincarnation has returned. And Chaos also went through some kind of reincarnation. He would be really upset when he finds out about Gods breaking his rules," the God of Foresight muttered, shaking his head.
"Unfortunately, things have already gone too far. Nothing can be done at this point," he continued, sighing.
...
Ryder was still spending time in Egypt, on a vacation with Alice and Shu.
At that moment, the three of them went to the Oldest Pyramid in Egypt to see it.
Using his links, Shu got the permission to observe the pyramid from extremely close. Despite his high clearance, the Egyptian Authorities sent an overseer to keep an eye on them so that they didn't break any rules or damage anything.
Ryder was observing the tallest pyramid, resting his hand on the pyramid to feel its texture.
"Amazing workmanship, right?" Shu asked Ryder, standing behind him.
"Yeah. For that time, it's certainly very impressive. They didn't have any powerful resources that we have now, but they still managed to create it. Amazing indeed," Ryder answered, fascinated.
"You know, there are fascinating stories about this Pyramid," the overseer stepped forward, talking about the history of this Pyramid.
"Is that so? What story?" Ryder asked, amused.
"Well, according to the stories, real gods are buried inside these pyramids," the Overseer answered.
"Real Gods?" Shu asked. "Must be another mythical story. There's no such thing as gods."
Ryder glanced at Shu, smiling wryly. If it were a few years ago, he would have agreed with Shu. But not now. Now he knew that gods existed. Some even came to walk on this earth. Moreover, he himself was a god at one time indirectly.
Now, he believed that there was a chance for all stories to be true, no matter how impossible they sounded. If gods, elves, demons, and other worlds with life existed, then anything was possible.
"Did no one go inside to check these stories? Not even archeologists?" Ryder asked.
"Nope. This is a restricted site. And there are no entrances to this Pyramid. No one can enter without damaging it, and the locals are extremely against damaging this place," the Overseer answered.
" So no, no one was allowed to entry. At least not until someone could find an entry without damaging the pyramid. But no one succeed," he continued.
Ryder observed the pyramid, shaking his head. "Interesting indeed. Who knows, there might actually be a god lying inside."
"Well, that's the thing. No one will ever know. It's like Schrodinger's cat experiment. We won't ever know what's inside," the Overseer answered. "Anyway, it's getting dark. Shall we leave?"
"Ah, sure. Let's go back," Ryder agreed. He and the others were taken back to their hotels, finishing their trip.
It was decided that tomorrow they were going to go back.
Everyone went back to their rooms where they were supposed to sleep so they could wake up on time. Unfortunately, there was one person who didn't sleep.
Ryder was really curious if there was actually a dead god inside. And he wanted to enter that place to check for himself. But in the presence of others, he didn't do it. Instead, he waited for the night when he could actually begin.
He opened the window of his hotel room, which was on the twentieth floor. He looked outside at the dark sky. Since it was midnight, almost everyone had fallen asleep. Only a rare few cars could be seen out on the road.
He quickly jumped out the window and started flying in the direction of the Pyramid.
The Massive Pyramid hi hu happened to be right outside the city, but it didn't have much security. There was only a single guard who was keeping an eye on the pyramid.
Ryder soon reached the Pyramid.
