The Avenger Of Giza CHAPTER 68
“The… The bedtime story, It was… It was true”, Tydeus mumbled in despair“Of course, I knew it was true. I am smarter than you all, you think I was joking?”“When it comes to fighting, you all can beat me. But it comes to wits, none of you can stand a chance against me”“This was why I thought we could respect each other in regards to our different areas of strength, not that only one person would continue to take all the glory and accolades”“But since you all preferred to treat me as the least in the group, I gotta do what I had to do”“And besides, someone recognized my intellectual ability and decided to give me a better offer”“When I found out that Tydeus was the last Athacian whom the legendary prophecy was talking about, and he was conspiring with the Cytorex leader to attack the king, I thought it would be something the King should know about, so I went to tell the king immediately” Artecus expressed himself.“What?! How do you know about that?” Tydeus asked Artecus confounde

“A ferocious warlord of the Pharaoh thought he could overcome my hordes. Of course, he tried. He killed many of my henchmen. But I later found out that he was an Athacian and the Athacian were threats to my ambition”“So? As a wielder of the powers and secrets of the Afterlife, I summoned the demonic Black Army of the underworld and I sent them on a little errand to clean up Athace for me and they did it very perfectly, that day was the happiest day of my life”“I had peace for a long time again, living as the King of Giza. And as for the Civil War, that wasn't my fault. I asked the rulers of the other cities for a small request, but they declined, so I made up my mind to take it by force”“They didn't want me to get what I want in the easy way so I had to take it from them in the hard way. I wanted to make sure that every part of this nation felt my power and my wrath. And after I thought I was done,”“I heard some people were camping and hiding themselves in a small village, Malja.
The Avenger Of Giza CHAPTER 70
Two other guards ran to the inner part of the dungeon, a dark and eerie area with a big hole covered by a large stone. They began to push the heavy stone away to open the mysterious hole for whatever was inside to come out. They kept pushing and pushing, groaning like they were trying to lift a ship, but they couldn't move the stone. Another two guards in the dungeon quickly went and helped them to push the big stone off the rim of the mysterious hole and after a while, they were able to roll the stone and the hole was left open. One of the guards quickly ignited a wood and threw it into the hole, and instantly, a loud rumbling noise from the hole vibrated the walls of the dungeon. The guards immediately ran away from the hole to the centre of the dungeon to secure their king. “Scorpiodon? What the heck is that?” Sakoh asked Rakeh, his voice covered in confusion. “I have no idea, but I think it should be…” *BONG! BONG!! BONG!!!* A dull banging sound occurring in patterns like

Urshuz is also a skilled warrior, of course, he led the Cytorex battalions. But all of his feats have nothing to do with killing a beast, not even with his bare hands.He continued to struggle with the chains of his leg, and suddenly, he was lucky enough to get it loosed, but perhaps he was too late. He raised his head and what he saw sent shivers running down his joints, The Scorpiodon was right in front of him. Before he could get up on his feet, the beast immediately lifted him with its horns and flung him to the wall of the dungeon viciously.“Nooooo!!! Let him out!” Rakeh shouted furiously as he continued to move the gate of his cell violently. Tydeus looked around him, but he couldn't do anything. The guards must have been so intelligent to tie him upside-down, there was nothing he could do in such a condition.Urshuz managed to get to his feet again, the effect of the crash had landed multiple wounds on his body. He turned to face the ferocious beast again but he didn't see a

Tydeus quickly carried Urshuz and placed him out of the way. The Scorpiodon ruthlessly went with its head trying to ram into Tydeus “Come On!” Tydeus yelled at the Scorpiodon as it came closer with its head like a bullThe two suddenly collided; Tydeus held the horns of the Scorpiodon powerfully whilst the it kept pushing its head like all it wanted was to ram Tydeus into the wall. Tydeus held his position tightly, pushing the head of the monster with its horns while it threatened to knock Tydeus off with its head.“You can do this, you can do this!” Rakeh started muttering to himself as he held onto the cell's bars with his heart racing with each beat sounding disorderly for Tydeus“GRRRRR!!!”Tydeus groaned as he began to move the gigantic monster off its position pushing it vigorously. He continued to push the Scorpiodon while the beast also tried to force itself on a spot with his claws puncturing and tearing the ground as it was pushed furiously. “Is he overpowering the Scorpi
The Avenger Of Giza CHAPTER 73
Abruptly, an appalling cry of an animal was heard; of course, there was only one animal in the area, but it wouldn't make a sound like that. King Nezeron fixed his eyes to the dark area. He'd love to see how their Scorpiodon was going to kill Tydeus, but he couldn't see anything.The weird cry of the animal resounded again as the King and his men curiously locked their eyes to see what was happening. And suddenly, the fearful monster was seen flying from the dark area crashing into the gates of the dungeon vehemently.King Nezeron and his subordinates unexpectedly dropped their jaws in shock. Did Tydeus just toss the three thousand-pound monster like a piece of wood? Sakoh was about to see what had just happened to the monster, but something made him turn his attention to the dark area to see Tydeus's condition, and the next thing he saw made his soul collapsed out of his body.“I'm dreaming”, Artecus mumbled to himself as they saw something humongous coming out of the dark areaTyde
The Avenger Of Giza CHAPTER 74
An oppressive silence enveloped the dungeon, thick enough to feel as if it were a tangible force. No sound dared to disturb the heavy stillness that clung to the air like a damp shroud.It is either the sky was planning to send down a cool rainfall or a frosty ghost had made its way into the environment as everywhere felt cold and appalling.Every vibration that once existed in the dungeon seemed to have been swallowed by the heavy air leaving only the cold wind whistling through the tiny enclosures on the stone walls of the dungeon.Even the sun, usually a steadfast beacon of warmth and light, struggled against the pervasive horror, its rays waning as if in mourning, unable to comprehend the sorrowful tale engraved in these stone walls.The only sound breaking the sorrowful quietude came from the chains that hung ominously from the ceiling. Clinking softly as the sorrowful breeze toyed with them, they swayed slowly from side to side while the rest rattled against the iron gates that

“Just let me be! I deserve to die not him”, Rakeh uttered ruefully, this time with tears gushing down his eyes.“Come on. Don't say that. This is a terrible situation for both of us and I think we have to handle this carefully. Take it easy, brother”, Sakoh said, comforting Rakeh, who had started sobbing bitterly.“You don't get it, Sakoh. This was all my fault. I killed him”, Rakeh spoke grievously again.“Listen Rakeh, this is a very tough and heartbreaking situation for both of us. It is not any of our fault, we were only betrayed. I need you to stop this, please”, Sakoh said sympathetically, patting Rakeh's shoulder.“You still don't get it, do you?” Rakeh said again.“What are you talking about?” Sakoh asked curiously yet with grief.“That very day at the bar in Cairo, before you came to join us. That son of a bitch was almost getting killed by some barbarians. I warned Tydeus to ignore him but I don't know where Tydeus has got his kind heart from”,“He insisted that I go and sav

Gnashing his teeth together and pulling with all his strength, the monster wasn't still moving, not even a bit. Still trying to do the impossible, he remembered how he broke down the gigantic gates of the Iron Fortress, but that was nothing to be compared to a three-headed beast with terrific size.The monster mockingly relaxed its body, waiting to see the magic this little human being is about to perform; perhaps it could get entertained for a while before it finally swallows him. With all his veins protruding from under his skin and his face tightened intensively, Tydeus continued to prove his bravery- or stupidity. He pulled with every last fibre left in his being, but the monster was only moving in his mind. The thoughts of his brothers, Rakeh and Sakoh, flickered through his mind like ghosts, trapped within the cold, unforgiving confines of the King's prison. He could almost hear their silent pleas, yearning for his strength, hoping he would come to their aid.Urshuz, hopeless i

Caught in the tangled webs of his predicaments, Tydeus wrestled with his vague awareness of his surroundings. It was then that an unexpected breeze brushed against his skin, stirring him from his struggles. With a sudden jolt, he twisted around and was startled to discover that he lay precariously at the very edge of a towering cliff. The realization sent shivers down his spine as he crawled closer to the precipice, compelled by a mix of fear and curiosity. Peering over the edge, his breath caught in his throat. Below him lay an abyss of jagged trenches, their depths obscured by shadows. Massive, sharp rocks jutted out at odd angles, resembling the jagged teeth of a Dinosaur lurking beneath the surface. He faced the monster again as it continued to come closer, but he still hadn't gotten any idea. Perhaps the despair in his mind had clouded his thinking so badly. Suddenly, the last words he said on Isis' grave flashed in his mind. “I will kill Nezeron for you, Isis” his head rang li

The three-headed leviathan, which had no iota of pity, rammed into the log all with all its three heads, pushing both Tydeus and a massive log out of its way. And with such a merciless impact, Tydeus was projected into the sky. For a second, he noticed he couldn't breathe.The altitude from where gravity intercepted his projection to the ground level made his heart jerk in his chest. He immediately closed his eyes and covered his face with his elbow before he fell ruthlessly to the ground, landing him many contusions.The three-headed monster, unshaken, writhed all its head of the dust from the log, trying to get sight of its prey again, but it never saw Tydeus. It continued to roar powerfully, shaking the entire jungle but still didn't see its prey anymore. Tydeus lay under the root of a big tree full of thorns; he dragged himself onto the root perfectly to hide from the monster. His eyes fell on his arm which had started to bleed heavily, with bruises all over his body.He sorrowfu

With every one of his muscles vibrating involuntarily, Tydeus's stick dropped from his hands in bewilderment at what was in his front. He let out a deep, sharp gasp as his hands went behind him, looking for what to hold on to.The creature gnarled again with a deep low noise from one of its heads. Yes, one of its heads because Tydeus also had now realized that Apophis was only child's play and the Scorpion, maybe an insect to what he was seeing before him. With its hideous hide, a patchwork of rugged scales like swords protruding out of its body, four magnanimous limbs that looked like mountains each extended with massive claws, the Leviathan's body covered the surroundings like an embodiment of primordial horror and dread.Having its triple commodiously scary heads towering with formidable horns twisted and curled, the colossal beast stretched its monstrous tail filled with rocky spikes that ran up to its vertebra and snarled at the two human prey in front of it.Apophis was actuall

“If you remember, I told you last time in the prison that the Iron Mask captured me because they accused me of stealing a map that contains the road to a treasure from them, do you remember?” Apphathorus asked. “Uhm, yeah, you said it was a treasure hidden in the Forest of Shadows, and if you find it, you can use it to save your people”, Tydeus replied.“Yes, Exactly. And that is what I have come into this jungle to find before I was trapped here”, Apphathorus explained. “Why not? You must really be crazy to come into this cursed forest in search of some treasure. What makes you think you're going to make it out of here alive? Your witchery?”“My science!” Apphathorus quickly countered Tydeus with a strict tone. “Oh, I see. Well good luck to you on your search for your pissant treasure”, Tydeus replied as he started to turn back again. “If you had the opportunity to make one wish and what you wished for no matter what it is, will be granted immediately, would you consider that as

Tydeus lifted his gaze and saw a tree a few meters away from him and a human figure trapped on the entwisted branches. He squinted his eyes and bent his back, shooting his face forward to see what exactly the situation was and who the person was. He picked up his walking stick and began to walk stealthily towards the tree, marching into the muddy and wet ground with his bare foot. Perhaps, this has got to be a trick or a prank by some of the ghosts or spirits in the forest. Nevertheless, he has to go and see what exactly the situation is before he can consider himself safe. “Thank your stars, you listened to me and didn't take any more steps in the direction you were going previously. You could have fallen into a mire under those thick bushes”, the person said to Tydeus, who continued to move closer. Tydeus processed the person's voice in his head as he continued to walk furtively to see who it was, but something was off; he realized it was a familiar voice, one that seemed like he

CHAPTER 81
Navigating the forest with only one leg was very tiresome and slow, but the sunrise felt even slower as if the darkness might linger forever. Yet, at last, dawn broke through the formidable canopy of the forest.The once-silent creatures of the jungle stirred to life under the gentle warmth of the morning sun. Grotesque monkeys swung from the gnarled branches of the rugged trees, their chattering filling the air with an almost chaotic vibrancy. Nearby, a pride of elephants ambled to a murky swamp, their massive bodies creating ripples in the viscerally unappealing waters as they quenched their thirst.Tatty snakes, both large and small, slithered with a chilling grace, dragging their sinuous forms across the muddy ground. Above, the sky was filled with an array of frantic birds, darting to and fro as if searching for their next prey. Meanwhile, other four-legged creatures roamed lazily, running after the grisly insects that danced over the damp foliage surrounding them.The trees stoo

Tydeus was strong enough to endure the Stone-bane poison for almost twenty-four hours, but there's only a little a weak female like Isis could do when it comes to containing such a vicious poison in her veins. Her condition continued to get worse as the moment passed. Tydeus held her sorrowfully in his arms and stroked her hair gently. His eyes fixed on her pupils which had started to turn white. “Tell your friends. It was nice meeting them”, She said again, letting out another stern cough which splashed blood out of her mouth onto Tydeus's face.The impact deepened his grief as his tears increased. Perhaps he wasn't pained that the poison was eating deep into her veins but the fact that the young woman was dying and there was nothing he could do about it but held her in his arms weeping bitterly.She flashed her eyes again and locked her gaze on his face with a warm smile as she continued to caress his cheeks with her thumb. She started closing her eyes gradually, and suddenly, she

The Scorpiodon appeared again, threatening to take its revenge, but this time, Tydeus was totally defenceless. He was tied with a chain to a rugged-looking pillar in the dungeon. He would try to move his body but they weren't responding.Having its tail positioned for a disastrous sting, the Scorpiodon began to move closer to Tydeus, who remained helpless, chained to the pillar. As the Scorpiodon came closer, Tydeus's vision began to blur, making it look like the Scorpiodon was duplication itself.He would shout but couldn't hear himself, only the echoing roar of the monster resonating deep in his ear drum. The Scorpiodon came close and was about to strike with its tail, but this time, Tydeus summoned all the energy left in his being and yelled; now he was starting to hear himself gradually.He struggled harder, but the chains weren't moving, and suddenly the black lava-like liquid sprouted out of the Scorpiodon's tail, projecting to his face. He gasped in terror. The chain had to bre
