Chapter 155: Awakening Beyond The Boundaries Of The Divine
-----
Bing Xue saw the incoming attack and was already moving to save Hekita.
However, she stopped midway through, seeing how Hekita was not intending to give up yet.
“Anubis, you dummy! Don’t let those words affect you!”
She gathered her powers, combining them into a mighty fusion of essences: Ki, Mana, Spirit Energy, and the Electromagnetic Essence within Anubis.
Everything became a sphere of golden energies, which she expanded, giving her the ability to control the Domain.
FLUOSH!
Suddenly, the dark domain twisted space and gathered together in front of Anubis, creating a huge black mirror. The red beam reached the mirror, and then…
FLASH!
It was reflected, being fired back at Set and blowing away its chest!
BOOOM!
“Oh? This girl… She’s really quite something.”
Bing Xue remained still, deciding to watch some more.
For someone as mighty as herself, sometimes the best action was to do nothing and watch.
If she intended to see them grow on their own, intervening and making things easier wasn’t the way.
“Uuggh!”
Set groaned as it saw its chest being torn apart; although it was only the armor made of red diamonds, it was as if it could feel the impact.
“RAAAHH!”
However, after smiling, the Mechanical God of War and Deserts smiled before roaring back, quickly conjuring several more beams harnessing energies from the red diamonds.
“Those are too many!”
Hekita panicked as Anubis regained his composure.
“Hekita… sorry!”
“It’s fine! We have to evade, hurry! Let’s synchro!”
“Okay!”
Hekita and Anubis minds and bodies became one, synchronizing into the same being; they moved dexterously and combined their strengths and energy reserves.
Using Anubis special ability within his domain, they did short-range teleportation, evading the incoming crimson beams one after another.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
As they evaded, Hekita used the Black Mirror she made to reflect some of the attacks, hitting Set back to deal some damage that was ultimately regenerated back anyway.
However, Set was still without moving an inch and only attacked from afar, constantly waiting for Neferteri to wake up from the nightmares she was having thanks to the phantom spirits harassing her.
“AAAHH…! I’VE HAD ENOUGH!”
However, Set roared furiously, suddenly harnessing even more energy and releasing it all at once, as hundreds of crimson beams reached Anubis and the Domain itself.
Each explosive attack blew up a part of the domain, making it dissipate and weaken. Explosion after explosion, the dark domain weakened, and so did the phantoms.
“Ah!”
As Hekita saw more beams that she could evade surround her, suddenly…
“CRYAAAH!”
The roar of Ra echoed behind her, rushing in front of Anubis and then deflecting every beam with large plasma shields and then swinging their plasma spears, slicing the beams themselves apart.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
As the explosions erupted one after another, Ra grabbed Anubis and flew out of the black cloud, the domain, into the skies above.
“Merneith! You’re ok!” Hekita said happily.
“Somehow!” said Merneith. “Your attack earlier freed me. For some reason Set didn’t even notice, what happened?”
“Your auntie is suffering mental attacks from the ghosts of her past, but…!”
BOOOM!
Just as Hekita was explaining how it worked, the technique instantly dissipated as the entire domain Anubis created exploded, dissipating into thin air.
There, Set emerged; most of his titanic form had been destroyed thanks to the constant attacks that Anubis domain inflicted upon it.
However, with each second, crimson sand gathered around it and rapidly fused and compressed into new red diamonds, helping the already huge Mechanical God become even larger!
“It’s already growing back up! Ah! This is endless!” Merneith complained.
And at the same time, a very furious Neferteri could be heard from within the Mechanical God as Set harnessed her powers, recovering all of its energy lost.
“YOU WILL PAY FOR WHAT YOU DID TO ME, YOU LITTLE BITCHES!”
While bleeding from her nose due to the slight brain damage she took, she roared furiously. Having gone completely mad, Neferteri, the proud empress, had now degenerated into a vulgar woman.
“She’s already back to normal?!” Hekita gasped. “Then what can we…!”
“DIE!!!”
However, in that moment, the two Mechanical Gods were surrounded by hundreds of massive spears made of red diamonds, rushing down towards them.
“Hekita! Stay close to me!”
“O-Okay!”
Ra and Anubis absorbed the powers of their pilots, clashing against the incoming attacks! Swinging their weapons created out of their main elements while trying to survive.
However, as the seconds went by, the attacks became more and more intense. Neferteri had gone completely insane, putting all her energy and stamina into killing these two girls.
“I WON’T STOP UNTIL YOU’RE TORN TO SHREDS!!!”
As everything happened, the two girls piloting the Mechanical Gods began to grow rapidly tired and exhausted of everything.
This battle seemed just utterly impossible.
Set’s powers were beyond unfair, and they synergized too incredibly well with Neferteri.
Did they even have a chance to win at all this entire time?
“It’s hopeless…” Merneith thought. “Mom… I won’t be able to avenge you.”
“Ahh… Is this really it?!” Hekita thought. “B-But I don’t… I don’t want to lose!”
Their hearts, full of anguish and fear, began to resonate with the wills of their Mechanical Gods, who wanted to protect them more than anything.
“Master…” Ra thought. “No, I won’t let you die…!”
“Hekita…” Anubis thought. “I promised I wouldn’t let you die, my friend!”
FLASH!
Suddenly, golden flames surged from Hekita and Merneith’s chests.
(Listen While Reading: The Last Element )
“Eh?”
“Huh?!”
Their Essences, Ki, Mana, and Spirit Energy, converged once more with the Wills of the Mechanical Gods.
This time, an ancient program long ago suppressed was beginning to reawaken within these machines!
Information suddenly flowed inside of their minds.
“HAHAHAAH! DIE! DIE! DIE! DIEEEE!”
As they Heard the insane laughter of Neferteri in the background, suddenly, it felt as if their minds and hearts were one with their Mechanical Gods.
And even with one another!
Anubis and Ra’s Digital Souls connected as rivers of black and red energies converged.
“This is… Ra? What are you implying?!” Merneith gasped. “Is this… Is this even possible?!”
“CRAAAH!”
“Anubis… You mean we can do this?!” Hekita muttered. “Really?!”
“Yes, my friend!”
The two Mechanical Gods glanced at one another as more and more spears of red diamonds reached them.
And then…
“Then let’s do it!” Merneith and Hekita roared in unison.
As the Essences of the Mechanical Gods combined with their pilots.
And then with one another…
RUMBLE!
“Huh?!”
Neferteri’s eyes widened as they almost popped out of her skull.
An explosion of golden lightning echoed from within the two Mechanical Gods, erupting with tremendous force.
Enough to blow away the red diamond spears into pieces!
“Hm? When did they… Ah!”
Suddenly, she saw it!
The two Mechanical Gods were beginning to separate into many parts!
“What is happening?! What are they doing?!”
The hearts of Merneith, Ra, Hekita, and Anubis became one.
“Ra, God of Sun!”
Merneith roared, her Soul converging with Ra.
“CRYAAAH!”
Ra’s mighty roar echoed across the skies as the sunlight resonated with its body as it separated into pieces.
“Anubis, God of the Underworld!”
Hekita named her friend, as its Soul converged with hers.
“AWOOOO!”
Anubis entire body separated into many pieces, flying around Ra’s pieces.
“Stop…! STOP WHATEVER YOU’RE DOING RIGHT NOW!”
Neferteri had a strange feeling that if she didn’t stop them now.
She would regret it!
Set moved towards them, his massive claws about to tear them apart.
Yet…
BOOOM!
An explosion of golden lightning blew up its arms, coming from the two Mechanical Gods as they were…
They were fusing!
“{Divine Mechanical God Fusion}!”
CLANK! CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!
The sound of metal hitting against one another echoed across the deserts and the sky.
Everyone that was in this battle glanced the skies at the birth of a new God.
Anubis and Ra’s pieces merged together, assembling a brand-new entity.
A brand-new divinity!
Black and Red merged with Gold, their colors resonating.
Their elements were so different from one another, yet they created the strongest fusion.
Suddenly, the red and black merged together, turning bright blue.
The bright blue color merged with gold, creating a tall, humanoid figure.
With the heads of Ra and Anubis on its left and right shoulder.
With the mighty sharp talons of Ra, with the giant black claws of Anubis.
And with a completely new head, resembling a stoic and wise god, with a long, golden crown, and fierce crimson eyes.
Holding upon a massive staff shaped as both a sword and a scythe.
And with a tremendous Aura of Divinity and Benevolence.
An Ancient, Forgotten Primordial God was reborn.
“{Primordial Mechanical God: Amun-Ra-Anubis}!”
FLASH!
Suddenly, it spread its wings—four wings made of black and red flames, which quickly merged into two wings of blue flames.
Phantasmal flames spread around Amun, gathering and forming hundreds of blazing specters shaped as ferocious jackals and hawks.
Merneith and Hekita found themselves within a completely new interior, expansive and wide, and the two girls met.
“Is this—did this really happen?! We fused!” Merneith said.
“I know!” Hekita giggled. “This is amazing!”
They realized their clothes had changed too, as both were wearing full-body suits made of azure metal, which seemed to connect them with Amun on a soul level.
“Masters.”
Amun’s stoic and manly voice echoed from within his interior.
“Set must not be underestimated even now! We must go all-out and stop his rampage before he kills any more innocents!”
“Yes, you’re right!” Merneith nodded.
“T-Then let’s do it!” Hekita said, wagging her tail in excitement.
As their minds and souls synchronized with Amun, suddenly, Neferteri laughed.
“Amun-Ra-Anubis?!” she laughed. “Hahahaha! Don’t make me laugh! You have gained no new power at all! YOU WEAKLINGS! DIE!”
Gigantic claws made of crimson diamonds reached Amun.
Yet his bright crimson eyes met the diamond, and then…
Mind and body, as one.
“{Chronicles of the Old Kingdom}”
Amun’s voice echoed across the entire of Egypt.
By swinging his strange weapon, Amun-Ra-Anubis suddenly disturbed space and time, shattering reality itself.
SLAAASH!
“A-Ah! What?!”
Suddenly, Neferteri and Set felt as if time itself had returned to its beginning.
They saw the world around them being born.
The eight primordial gods created the earth, the air, the sea, and the sands…
And even the sun.
Yet who was above them all, scribing the world’s beginnings?
“T-This is…?! Lord Amun?!”
Neferteri, who was actually an Atheist and never truly believed in the Egyptian Gods, was left flabbergasted.
“{Act 1}: {The Beginning}”
And then space and reality closed…
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
Countless slash attacks were released within a split second. Set’s crimson diamond claws were torn to shreds and then reduced to atoms.
“A-Ah?!”
Neferteri and Set had the exact same reaction!
“{Chronicles of the Old Kingdom}”
Their eyes widened as they heard Amun speak again.
This time, he was above them.
“No…! STOP HIM, SET!”
Neferteri cried as Set rushed towards Amun, swinging his claws against Set before he could finish his incantation!
But it was too late.
“{Act 2}: {The Earth’s Birth}”
SLAAASH!
Another slashing attack reached Set, but this time it tried to evade, only to find itself within a complete black void.
“GAH?!”
And then, out of nowhere, a massive boulder, the size of the world, struck it down with tremendous force.
BOOOM!
The red diamonds protecting his body shattered one after another, almost leaving his body completely exposed.
Then, Neferteri and Set found themselves over the sands of the desert, without realizing what even hit them!
“T-This is…?! How is this even a power a machine can create?!”
Neferteri glared into the skies furiously.
Yet Amun was already standing in front of her and Set.
“This is the power of Amun-Ra-Anubis, Book of Creation!”
Merneith and Hekita’s voices echoed within the huge machine.
“Do you yield, aunt?” Merneith wanted to solve things peacefully until the last moment.
“Please let go of Set!” said Hekita.
“A-Ah…”
Neferteri smiled a bit.
“Suuure… I give… I give up!”
As she said this and Set lowered its head, Amun moved towards her to take her out of the machine.
And yet…
“LIKE HELL, I WOULD GIVE UP, YOU SHITTY BRATS!”
However, until the last moment, she didn’t give up.
She was a wicked woman, but she had an endless tenacity.
Set materialized two gigantic swords with all the energy it had left and swung them down against Amun, aiming to split it apart.
Yet…
“{Phantoms of the Past}”
FLUOSH!
Suddenly, the specters that tormented Neferteri again emerged by the hundreds, gathering around the two swords and reducing them to dust.
Crack, crack…!
CRASH!
The phantoms suddenly gathered around the machine and his pilot, screaming and constantly wailing as they remembered their agonizing deaths.
“Uuaaagggh!”
Neferteri screamed in horror again, reliving what she had gone through just a couple minutes ago.
“They gave you a chance, and you decided to betray their trust,” Amun said as a white book materialized, made of stone. “For that, I sentence you to drowning to death!”
The book glowed with new symbols as space and time around the two machines distorted.
“{Chronicles of the Old Kingdom}”
Neferteri panicked, screaming.
“No! NOT AGAIN!”
“{Act 3}: {The Creation of the Oceans}”
SPLAAASH!
An endless, primordial, watery abyss manifested drowning Set and Neferteri inside.
The seas were unwieldy; no matter how hard Set tried to swim, it would endlessly drown.
“G-GRAAGGH…! MASTER…!”
He screamed as the water entered his wounds and rapidly drowned Neferteri inside.
“No…! Wait…! Guuggghh…! Uuaaggh!”
The woman screamed as her lungs were filled with water to the brim. The primordial oceans mercilessly drowned the two.
Until Neferteri no longer moved, and Set internal circuits were completely crushed by the sea’s pressure.
At the end, the only thing remaining was Set’s pieces floating over the seas and Neferteri’s cold and lifeless body.
“Judgement has been given!”
Amun closed the book as everything returned to normal.

I changed it because it would ruin the surprise, hehe.
