The Avenger Of Giza CHAPTER 25
The journey to the Valley Of Bones continued after many hours of travel,The soldiers kept on marching relentlessly across mountains, across rivers, across great hills and even across thick forests as their subjects rode on their horses and chariots leading the way.The sun had begun to disappear as the night came closer; in a few more hours, they would arrive at the Valley Of Bones.They continued to travel on a plateau that connected to the Valley ahead.The ground looks very deserted, with no sign of life on the plateau. There were no animals, no plants, only bones and rotten dead creatures on the ground.It is as if the place has been cursed or something.Gradually, the moon began to appear, and the captains of the soldiers immediately ordered the armies to light up their lanterns and mount them on their spears as they continued marching closer to the Valley.Tydeus kept looking around the deserted area. He quickly used his hands to cover his nose to shield his nostrils from the p
The Avenger Of Giza CHAPTER 26
“The great Apophis that we all know is a gigantic dragon which only dwells deep in the forest of shadows”,“The legends even say that the great god of light, Ra, battled with Apophis for many years and couldn't get rid of it. If Apophis couldn't be killed by a god…”“How did ordinary mortals like you, Tydeus and Sakoh manage to kill such a powerful beast?” Artecus asked Rakeh fastidiously.Rakeh grinned towards Artecus with a weird smile as he continued riding his horse gently.“You want to know that huh?” Rakeh asked Artecus“I would love you to tell me”, Artecus replied to Rakeh with curiosity written all over his face.“This is something I will never tell anyone, but because Tydeus has made you one of us now, I think you should know”, Rakeh replied with a smile“Thanks, so how did it happen?” Artecus asked inquisitively again.“Hmm, have you ever heard of anything called the Stone-bane?” Rakeh asked Artecus.Artecus bowed his head, thinking vigorously; it seemed like something he h

“Oops! Never thought I would hear that”, Tydeus mumbled to himself playfully.“Why did you interrupt my sorcery in the shrine the other time?” Isis asked Tydeus angrily.“Oh, that? That wasn't inten…”“Don't tell me it's not intentional. I know you did it purposely”, Isis quickly opposed Tydeus“Alright, fine. It was actually because you were taking too much time…”“We were to prepare for war not to start a ceremony for the gods. All we needed to do was to pick up our weapons and head to the battlefront”“But you and your little maidens stood there wasting our time. I had to do what I had to do?” Tydeus explained himself frivolously.“Really? So consulting the gods before embarking on a dangerous mission is not important to you right?” Isis objected again. “Okay then, where is Osiris? I can't see Amun anywhere. Is Anubis behind you?”“No of course! We are the only ones going into this battle; the last time I checked, the gods were not going with us”“So what is the need to consult th

Tydeus stealthily came down from his horse and began tiptoeing towards the front. The King and the general wondered what he saw and they didn't.He kept on stepping gently and covertly on the muddy ground as he fixed his eyes to the front which had been made obscure by fog and darkness.An astounding silence took over the environment. Even the racing heartbeats of the King and his General could be heard as they held onto their weapons tightly in case Tydeus in front noticed any threat.Tydeus gently bent his head as he advanced furtively into the fog, trying to get hold of the tiny sound in the great silence. Suddenly, no one knew what Tydeus saw, He immediately pulled out his big sword from the sheath on his back.*Wushyynnnne!*The screeching sound of Tydeus's sword from his sheath interrupted the silence. As Tydeus's men saw that he had just pulled out his sword, they also brought out their weapons. It seems the Cytorex would love to play some mind games before the real fight.Ty

Isis rode her horse confidently to the front, locking her eyes on Tydeus's face with a bold smile. It seems this is her chance to prove to this “rude” Tydeus what she is capable of.“My sorceress, are you sure…”“I will go with them, Your Highness”, Isis cut into King Nezeron's question.Tydeus, whose face had been filled with seriousness, immediately lost his concentration as he saw Isis again. He unconsciously started gazing at her intently as she rode her horse forward.“You sure you really want to do this?” Tydeus leniently asked Isis with a playful smile.“Your men would probably need someone to save their asses”, Isis sarcastically whispered to Tydeus with a weird smile.Tydeus giggled silently as he took his eyes to Isis's face again in agreement with her and said, “Alright if you say so”.“Okay then, I guess we have to turn to the right isn't it, Captain?” Sakoh immediately asked Captain Kethrax“Yes”, Captain Kethrax replied.“You four better be very careful”, General Gyeron
The Avenger Of Giza CHAPTER 30
Back on the road to the broken bridge, Rakeh, Sakoh, Artecus and Isis kept sprinting on their horses like they were in a race. Only the moonlight illuminated the environment a little bit. The road was clear hence the reason why they were riding fast on their horses.But they got to a junction where the road was covered with logs of wood, clothes, broken boxes and ruined chariots. Some people must have lost their lives on this path. It is as if the victims were ambushed by thieves or probably the Cytorex. There were also no signs of life in this area, only that of some bats flying around and other eerie sounds from wild birds deep in the forest on the sides of the roads.The group immediately stopped their speed as they observed the terrible view in front. The sounds of the wild birds increased, they were no longer sounding like birds but like ghosts crying deep in the forest.“This path looks dangerous, something must be here. We better…”“I think we better slow down and ride our ho

“Thanks, sorceress, that was very mindful of you. This guy could have just killed himself now”, Sakoh said appreciating Isis.“So I just saved your ass for free the second time, the third time, I promise you, I wouldn't even move an inch”, Rakeh said angrily to Artecus“That wasn't fair! You all made to keep talking till I lost concentration”, Artecus protested“Alright, fine! Enough of all the jokes. Now let's get serious. So how do we cross this bridge?” Sakoh cleared the air and asked the group*Weouuweeeii!!!*Sakoh immediately whistled and called his sparrow which had been flying in the sky. The bird came to him and landed on his shoulders as all four of them kept looking, observing the view before them.The bridge seemed to have been a work of art but something terrible must have happened for the bridge to be broken in the middle, leaving only the starting part and the ending part that leads to the other side of the bridge.The four of them stood at the edge of the starting part

Artecus spread his hands, expressing his support for Rakeh's statement.“Exactly! In fact, this is not even something we should be arguing about. So who is going first?” Artecus asked; the group had probably agreed with him.“What? I wasn't referring to you. I'm not going to agree with someone who has been a talkative; I'm only going to agree with the person who has remained focused all this while…”“Only such a person would have a clear mind to think straight”, Rakeh responded to Artecus sarcastically while referred to Isis.“Really? You are going to believe her over me? Is that how teamwork works?” Artecus protested to Rakeh“Maybe not. But that is how common sense works. Right behind you, Sorceress”, Sakoh frivolously replied to Artecus as he also climbed his horse.Isis got onto her horse also as they lined up beside each other. According to the sorceress, they must run together and jump to the other end at the same time and quickly sprint off before the rest of the bridge collaps
