Chapter 411: The Queen Somewhere in Egypt. Tang! Tang! Tang! Loud repeated sounds of metal colliding against something were heard in the air as a group of slave workers could be seen diligently hammering the tool in their hand at a stone wall. These people had been working on this seemingly meaningless task for so many days that one could even wonder what their intention was to do such a thing. Suddenly, their attention was distracted and attracted by a loud sound, a sound that was different than the one their tools made. CRACK!! A loud shout of someone resounded through the air. "It's open!! It's finally open! Quick! Someone go and tell the queen about this!!" … Hours later, a convoy was seen moving through Egypt's well-known yellow desert at high speed. The piercing ray of light that the sun radiated above and the scorching hot weather that existed in the area seemed unable to slow them down, as the convoy swiftly made their way toward a certain direction. In the middle of the convoy was a strikingly grand chariot that gave off a majestic appearance. It was escorted by dozens of fully armored horse guards, who positioned themselves in all directions, ready to block any possible dangers that might come its way. Soon, the chariot, as well as its escorts, stopped in front of one of the 138 Egypt's mega structures - the Pyramids. A young girl dressed in gold slowly made her way down the chariot; hundreds of people who already waited in front of the pyramid immediately went to their knees. These people bowed to her, their faces directly touching the sand, ignoring the searing heat of the desert on their faces. The girl maintained her neutral expression, as she walked toward the imposing structure. Then, suddenly, a figure dressed in black appeared in her path, stopping her from advancing. "I apologize, My Queen. This place is restricted and forbidden to enter." The black figure said firmly. Even though she was clearly barred from entering by the unknown figure, the girl only smiled faintly, as she slowly raised her hand in the air. In an instant, a faint luster flew from her fingertip and landed at the figure dressed in black. Following it was a faint whisper of a word. [Enchantment] As the light seeped into the figure's body, the young girl then said, "It's fine for me, the queen, to enter. Step aside and let me pass." Surprisingly, the figure appeared to change his mind as he answered, "Yes, Your Majesty. As the queen, you are allowed to enter." The young girl chuckled as she watched the figure's changing behavior. Ignoring the black figure, who already knelt down, the girl continued onwards, followed by her loyal guards. She and the others slowly but surely made their way through a long tunnel that went deep into the pyramid, until they arrived at what appeared to be their destination. The group reached inside a secret chamber where numerous hygrolyphies, symbols and scriptures were engraved on its walls. Furthermore, the girl could see myriad kinds of artifacts lying in the corners of the chamber. "Is this the place?" The girl asked her aides, as her eyes scanned over the entire room. "Yes, My Queen. This is one of the oldest pyramids that was built. This place is definitely Khufu's secret chamber - the place where he kept his collections." "Alright, thank you." The young girl, the one these people revered as the queen, was none other than Cleopatra the Seventh. The new coronated pharaoh of Egypt. However, her Magus Academy's friend knew her as Klea. When Klea, who at that time was the new queen of Egypt, abruptly went missing - courtesy to the Magus Academy, her father quickly assumed she was running away from her duty. Thus, he ordered a thorough search in order to find her. Unfortunately, they didn't manage to find Klea even though they already scoured the entirety of Egypt for her. Therefore, at that time, her father had already surrendered to fate. Hence, Klea was harshly reprimanded and scolded the moment she returned from Magus Academy. Naturally, she also received a punishment because of her 'running away'. The punishment was for her to be locked inside the Great Alexandria Library, the biggest library that contained the most comprehensive and numerous knowledge in Egypt, and probably in the whole world. In all honesty, Klea felt the punishment was such a wonderful reward. After all, she never cared about ruling the nation while, on the other hand, was very fond of learning and studying new things. In addition, being locked and isolated made her able to focus on her cultivation better, freeing her from having to explain what she was doing. When she was bored of cultivating, Klea would return to the embrace of knowledge. During her time 'locked' in the Great Alexandria Library, she was very much invested in exploring more information regarding Egypt's past. Especially after she knew the information about the Nephilim faction, who was said to rule Earth thousand of years ago. Today, after months of searching, Klea finally found the secret chamber of the greatest Egyptian architect ever born, a man named Khufu. At the moment, Klea was perusing through the chamber, paying special attention to its walls, which were entirely engraved with numerous hygrolyphies, Egypt's ancient language. In the end, she spent hours scouring around, as she tried to find all the scripts Khufu possibly hid in the chamber. Thankfully, the symbol on her hand helped Klea tremendously, as it conveniently translated each and every word on the scriptures and the artifacts she found in the chamber. The findings eventually led Klea to an even larger and older civilization, one that existed before Egypt. The once world-renowned Babylonian civilization of the east. The Babylonian seemed to be the origin of the Egyptian civilization in the current era. However, it seemed the great flood of 2000 years ago had erased copious amounts of information about the past, burying Earth's true history. Klea involuntarily let out a smile when she read a passage about a certain king of the old in one of the scriptures. That certain king was said to be the king of kings, a man called Gilgamesh. He was known as the hero of the people and also for defying the gods. It was said Gilgamesh had 4 companions with him - people who were no less famous than him. These people were: a Great Sage from the East, a Shaman from the North, the Beast king from the West, and lastly his best friend Eridu. Klea was still curious about what happened to them, but unfortunately, the information collected by Khufu was also limited. Therefore, it automatically meant she would have to look up the information herself, if she wanted to know more. Shifting her attention away from the scripture regarding Gilgamesh, Klea was about to read the next scripture when her eyes were attracted to something that lay in a corner of the chamber. She swiftly walked toward it, surprised to find such an interesting object, a gold-colored bracelet. The moment her eyes landed on it, thanks to her readings, Klea knew right away this bracelet had some kind of power hidden within it. Thus, without further ado, Klea asked the symbol to scan the bracelet. [Bracelet of Anu] [Artifacts - Tier ???] "What an amazing find!" exclaimed Klea softly, as to not attract others' attention. From the first look, she knew this was not a normal artifact at all. Klea swiftly took the artifact and put it on her arm, while secretly vowing to not let it go no matter what happened. While Klea was still drowning in excitement due to the unexpected but pleasant discovery, a group of people suddenly barged into the chamber. Normally, no one would and could interfere with the royalty. However, this particular group that had just arrived was a little bit different. These people were all wearing similar black clothes, while conspicuous tattoos were visible on their faces. They were known as the Medjai warriors. This group were the descendants of the ancient warrior lines, that were assigned the sacred duty of protecting the royal family's legacy. The person who led the group to the secret chamber was the elder of the Medjai warriors and also the High Priest of Egypt. "My Queen, some history is meant to be buried forever. Moreover, if you have any question, you can always depend on us, the Medjai, to seek it for you." Upon hearing the elder's words, Klea only smiled. "You are no fun, Imhotep." The man in front of her was, in Klea's opinion, the hardest to deal with. Not only did he have many devout followers working outside the royalty, Imhotep also had a high resistance to her enchantment spells. Klea understood it was time for her to leave the place the moment this man appeared here. "Thank you and please continue your wonderful job." Klea said, as she walked past Imhotep. As she exited the pyramid, Klea noticed the sun had submerged half of its body on the horizon, painting the expanse with crimson color. Then, in the distance, Klea spotted a group of riders rushing toward her direction. It was a group of royal guards. Immediately, one of them jumped down the horse and knelt in front of her. "My queen, your father has just passed away."
