Omega Summoner

“Half a soul?” Cairo asked as he looked towards Adrian for an explanation.

Adrian then explained the statement that he made as the others do not know what is happening. He made sure to calm down the king and queen as they were trying to wrap their heads around the fact that their son is suddenly being worshipped as a god. Adrian told them that the soul of the Sun God Ra is currently attached to the soul of Prince Amun.

“You mean to say that the Sun God Ra is like a parasite to my son’s soul?” King Amon asked but in a meek manner as he did not want to offend a god after all.

“Not like a parasite. That is quite a harsh thing to say although some gods really do that.” Adrian stated as Prince Amun suddenly glared at him.

“Did you son had some complications when he was born or during the queen’s pregnancy?” Adrian asked as he avoided Prince Amun’s gaze.

“As a matter of fact, my queen had a difficult time carrying our son. The royal physician even said that she might get a stillbirth or miscarriage which is why I prayed to the Goddesses of Life to make sure that our son will be delivered safely and that my queen be safe.” King Amon stated as he remembered his conversation with the royal physician back then.

“If that was the case then it answers perfectly why Prince Amun’s soul is like that. It seems the Goddess of Life did answer your prayers back then or maybe the fragmented soul of the Sun God Ra answered it for you. The Sun God Ra is said to also be a God of Life after all due to him being in control of the sun that gives life.

The fragment soul of the Sun God Ra completed the void that was incomplete of Prince Amun’s soul. It is not farfetched to say that some souls fail to stabilize properly due to some reasons. Sometimes there are external factors such as curses or hexes.

From what I gathered earlier; the fragmented soul of the Sun God Ra should not have awakened easily. The sudden situation of the prince being kidnapped for a vessel of an angel might have something to do with that. It could also mean that the soul of the Sun God Ra was supposed to awaken to begin with.” Adrian stated and Prince Amun nodded.

When the king and queen heard curses or hexes, they looked at each other as if they knew that it was definitely something like that. Adrian did not pry into it as that matter has already passed for years and the prince was brought to the world safely. They might have already dealt with the one that cursed the queen to begin with.

“You are correct that I would have awakened but it was supposed to be until the prince has reached adult age. The sudden forceful insertion of light elemental energy in my body might have awakened my soul much earlier but I laid dormant. I only showed up when the other parts of my soul came to me.” Prince Amun stated as he pointed towards the Vestiges of the Sun God.

“Then… if the fragment soul of the Sun God Ra is extracted from our son!?” King Amon stated in a panicked tone.

“You do not have to worry about that because the soul of the prince is already stable. The fragment soul of the Sun God Ra has fixed his soul for the time being. Just like the Sun God Ra is saying, the soul of the prince will be fully restored by the time he comes of age.” Adrian stated as he checked on the prince’ soul.

“If you are worried about the prince’ soul then I can tell you that I can easily fix it should you get the last fragment of my spirit that was split in two.” The Sun God Ra stated as the king and queen sighed with relief as a heavy burden vanished from their chests.

“You plan to ascend once you fully recover the last part of your soul. Why did you split your soul in the first place? Why not just attach all of you to Prince Amun in the beginning so that the vestiges are all we need to deliver? You gods are really so difficult to comprehend that you make mortals life complex.” Adrian stated as he basically ranted at the last part as he needed more job to do.

“It is not that I wanted it to be complicated but I needed to let a part of me stay in the western continent. That part of my soul acts as another form of protection so that the Distorted God Apophis does not descend into the world. Half of Apophis is currently trapped in my divine realm which is what my son the God Seth is battling every day.” The Sun God Ra stated.

“We already know the story of Apophis, but you should at least know where your last soul fragment is being kept.” Adrian stated.

“I think you should be more respectful to a powerful god.” Cairo whispered to which made the Sun God Ra laugh.

“No need for such pleasantries, my champion. It seems Champion Equinox has a lot of trouble dealing with godly beings which is why he talks like he has great frustrations to any god he encounters. I also agree with him because dealing with other gods are a hassle.

It is why they all prefer to have their own divine realms instead of a collected one. Just like you guessed, I do not where my last soul fragment is and that is in a place called the Thorny Pit. I placed it there because a part of Apophis is also sealed there. It is also the most active part of that snake bastard which is its shadow.” The Sun God Ra stated.

“No way!” Cairo stated in defeat as he knows that place well.

“Why do you know of that area?” Adrian asked as Cairo reacted that way.

“That place is a territory of the God Ammit.” Cairo stated.

“Then that will be hitting two birds with one stone. We are already headed there anyway. This is great news to us then.” Adrian stated but Cairo deflated.

“The Thorny Pit is not a place filled with thorns, but a place infested with Horned Sand Centipedes. It is called Thorny Pit because the Horned Sand Centipedes move there so much that the hole seems to be filled with thorns. It is one of the places where criminals are punished with death.” Cairo stated as he knows that area well because he died there once as a result of being hunted down by the people in that territory.

“Did you say that the Thorny Pit has become a place where criminals are sacrificed?” The Sun God Ra stated in a worried tone.

“Yes. It has been a place where criminals are sent to when the Vessel of Ammit no longer wanted to deal with punishing them.” Cairo replied.

“It seems Ammit has truly forsaken the western continent gods. If they are offering up live souls to the Thorny Pit, then the Shadow of Apophis will grow in power slowly by feeding on them. My fragmented soul can only keep the seal since it was weakened but if the Shadow of Apophis grows in power, then I fear the western continent is in danger.” The Sun God Ra stated.

“If that was the case then the Shadow of Apophis should have started to awaken by now. It was a thousand years ago since they started this practice.” Cairo stated.

“You must get there now and prevent the Shadow of Apophis from resurrecting. The two of you must rally the temples that are still loyal to me. Bring them this sigil and go to the Thorny Pit with necessary cavalry.” The Sun God Ra stated as he gave them a token. 𝘪𝑎.

“Are you not going to come with us?” Cairo asked as the power that the Sun God Ra is emanating could be equated to a demigod.

“I must not move from my location because the angels are also targeting me. If they learned of my awakening, then they would surely attack me with their full might. The Goddess of Light Luminaria does not take kindly of Sun Gods after all. The angels might also use me as a source of power as Champion Equinox might have seen.” The Sun God Ra stated as Adrian nodded.
