Solan, who was sitting in Elyse's tent, was the person who could support Elyse most unconditionally at this moment.

His decision to defend Erich was based on an eye-for-an-eye revenge——

After all, when the Lower Egyptians attacked Upper Egypt under the leadership of the sun god Ra, they neither considered whether their methods were cruel, nor considered how dangerous they would put their own people in the Lower Egyptian border army.

Furthermore, Solan is the favored person of God Amon. Ever since he heard the majestic oracle of the god that night, Solan thought he knew the will of God Amon like the back of his hand.

Solan fully agrees with Erich's plan.

But this time, Solan hadn't fully discussed the aftermath measures after the diversion of the river with Erich, and Nanna, the priest of the God of War, had already come in from outside the tent.

Solan jumped up from the seat in front of his sister -- his sitting posture just now was too casual, and Solan was actually afraid of being seen by others and saying that he was disrespectful to the king.

Nanna looked at Solan coldly: "Miss and I have something to say."

"General, please go out—"

Solan touched his nose innocently, rolled his eyes, and saw that Ailixi had no intention of keeping her, so he turned around and left sensibly.

When he was about to leave, the general suddenly felt a little worried: because he stayed behind in the tent, it decided the country's military plans.One is his younger sister who he regarded as a straw bag in the past, and the other is his younger sister's maid.

But now he was so happy to follow them willingly and obey their decision.

Solan left Elyse's tent, Elyse faced Nanna calmly, and stretched out her hand: "Sit——"

Instead of sitting down, Nanna strode up, reached out and touched Ai Lixi's forehead, as if she wanted to see if there was any discomfort in her: "Miss... are you all right?"

Alicia resisted the urge to smile.

Nanna's concern warmed her heart.

"I'm fine," she replied businessily.

She already wears a white crown and is the king of Upper Egypt.

Nanna is no longer the head maid who personally takes care of her daily life, but has become her most important ally, the Priest of the God of War who controls the military power for her.

They are no longer as close as before, but the care for each other in their hearts should never decrease.

But after Nanna withdrew her hand, she lowered her head and asked Erich: "Miss, have you decided to divert the river and destroy Memphis?"

Alicia stared at her, and after a while, she nodded: "Well——"

"For what?" Nanna asked immediately.

"For fear."

Alicia blurted out without the slightest hesitation.

"Nanna, I think you understand better than many people: I am a woman, the first princess who was abandoned by the current Pharaoh."

"I don't have the divine blood flowing in the pharaoh's body. My qualifications to be on the throne of the pharaoh are not even as good as my daughter Ou Nai."

"Only fear can silence any voice against me."

Nanna stared at Alicia, looking up and down, as if she had known her for the first day.

"So, as you said before, you want all people in this world to live with dignity... These people don't include Lower Egyptians? Don't they include Memphis?"

"Nanna, you are so naive."

Erich raised her chin slightly, facing the head maid who had followed her for many years with a preaching attitude.

"Everyone in my mouth, of course, refers to all the people who support me. Opponents are the objects I conquer with fear. Naturally, the two cannot be confused."

Hearing this, Nanna lowered her head and pondered for a long time, then finally raised her head again and asked seriously, "Miss, what do you think the war is for?"

Ai Lixi's heart moved, and she raised her eyes to look at Nanna carefully. She found that there was an indescribable seriousness in the eyes of the Priest of War God this time.

Nanna was no longer the God of War's favored one who was passionate in the face of danger, and who would pull a hard bow with a loud shout.

She is now also the priest of the God of War Mengtu, and her words, deeds and decisions are to a certain extent the embodiment of the will of the God of War.

"Wars are meant to... end wars."

Ailixi still knows Mengtu quite well. After all, putting this god and Kongsi the Slayer together can find out the standard answer.

Nanna immediately showed relief.

"Miss, you still remember this."

Immediately, she opened her eyes wide, stared at Alixie, and said word by word: "Destroying Memphis...is not in line with the wishes of God of War Mengtu."

"Miss, think about making peace with Pharaoh!"

"With the current situation in Egypt, you have a lot of money to negotiate peace with Pharaoh—"

Seeing that Alixi was unmoved, Nanna pursed her lips and continued to persuade.

"Indeed, destroying Memphis will bring you a lot of fear. In the next few decades or hundreds of years, legends about you will be spread in this land. Men will be terrified when they hear your legends, and women will use your The name is used to scare the children who cry at night..."

"But fear alone won't help you master Egypt."

"And a ghost city with [-] resentful souls will be your lingering nightmare."

Having said that, Nanna took half a step back, put her right hand on her left chest, knelt down on one knee, and said to Erich: "Miss, if you won't change your mind... then Nanna won't Stay by your side."

Alicia didn't express much expression or words, and finally just nodded slightly.

It seems to be saying: Then don’t keep it——

Nanna remained calm, as if she had anticipated Alicia's reaction.

But her slightly lowered face was very stiff, and all emotions were frozen in her eyes, unable to express any more.

She leaned on her left knee, straightened her body towards Alixie, said softly in a very rare tone of anger, "Miss, look at you... you don't need Nanna anymore!"

It was both sad and difficult to say this sentence from Nanna's mouth.

Ever since Alicia was sent to the embalmer's workshop and was almost mummified, it can be said that she had to rely on Nanna's support to survive her weakest stage.

However, now Erich's personality is much higher than Nanna's, and most of Egypt's land has also fallen into her pocket——

That's why Nanna sighed that Alicia no longer needed her.

Alixi was still as calm as before, she even raised the corners of her mouth slightly, looked at Nanna brightly, and suddenly raised her eyebrows and said: "At least I still have Kong Si by my side—"

Kong Si is the killer form of the God of War, and choosing Kong Si instead of Nanna actively shows that Elyse has broken the balance between war and killing, and tends to use cruel methods.

Of course, this can bring more fear to her.But it also made her gradually deviate from the symbol of light and order in the title of God Amon, and thus get closer to the evil god that Delos vigorously promoted at the beginning.

Nanna's complexion changed drastically for a moment, and she couldn't even maintain the calm pretense before. She hurriedly bowed to Elyse, then turned and walked out of Elyse's tent.

Erich heard Nanna's footsteps striding away outside the tent.Then there was a violent roar mixed with infinite sadness.

The former loyal comrade-in-arms Nanna, the Nanna who was born and died for Alixie, now left Alixie's residence without looking back.

Alicia's expression didn't change at all, she tapped the table with her fingers, and counted softly in her heart: "One, two, three..."

As soon as she counted to three, the hanging tent at the entrance of the camp was lifted up with a sound of brushing, and Kong Si's pale young face appeared outside the tent.

The boy stammered and pointed to the outside, he didn't know what to say for a long time.

However, Alicia quickly lowered her head, not letting Kong Si see her expression.

"Scon, you...you will always stay by my side, and you won't just leave just because you disagree with me, right?"

Kong Si stretched out his hand and scratched the disheveled hair hanging from his forehead for a long time. After a long time, he finally nodded.

Elixir thought for a while, and told Kong Si: "Okay, Si Kong, do me a favor and invite Lord Senmut."

Senmut's voice has appeared outside the tent: "I'm already here."

When Nanna left just now, it was so earth-shattering that it was impossible not to alarm Senmut.

"It's just in time. Just now, Nanna suggested to me on behalf of Mengtu, God of War, that maybe we can consider peace talks with Pharaoh. So I plan to meet Pharaoh. How about it, Lord Senmut, you plan to let me go by myself Do you still want to go with me?"

Senmut's expression remained unchanged, but he repeated Erich's words: "Talk to Pharaoh?"

There was some doubt in his tone, and Erich laughed briskly: "It's not a peace talk, just a meeting."

"Don't tell me that this is not in line with your wishes, so abandon me too!"

Senmut took half a step back, lowered his head slightly, but replied softly: "I'm naturally with you."

Alixi took a breath slowly, and answered briefly: "Okay!"

When the moon was above the treetops that night, they had appeared in the royal court of Memphis-the pair of demigods.

Erich chooses to appear in her real image, but Senmut hides her figure for some reason.

At this moment, he is like an illusory outline, and Erich can see his tall figure clearly when she looks closely.

But where he is, there is no obstruction to the light, and Alicia can easily see the scene behind him.

Pharaoh's court.

Haven't been here for a long time.

But the scenery here is exactly the same as when she was still in the palace.

The water surface of the lotus pond in the middle of Wangting Garden is serene and blue-purple lotus blooms quietly.

Acacia flowers are still planted all over the courtyard, and everything is arranged according to the favorite concubine of the past.

However, there were no more attendants and guards in this royal court, and everything was so silent.

Because of the lack of people, the royal court lost its former vitality.

Alixi walked around in the royal court at random, and when she turned her head inadvertently, she found that Senmut was standing in front of a certain wall in the main hall, stretching out her sleeves from time to time, and gently wiping a certain position on the wall.

Alixi stood behind him and looked at him for a while, before she suddenly realized that this woman might be remembering the place when she saw her for the first time—she at that time was just an illusory image that silently emerged from the wall. It's just a face.

Ai Lixi's heart moved slightly, and suddenly she heard footsteps behind her, and a familiar man's voice asked, "Is it you?"

"it's me……"

She turned around slowly and gave the visitor a charming smile.

Pharaoh Delos was stunned, unable to make a sound for a long time, as if he couldn't believe his eyes.

On the contrary, Erich noticed that Delos looked exhausted in this short moment, with sunken eye sockets and haggard eyes.

He was still wearing the pharaoh's usual clothes, but the gold ornaments around his body were much less, almost extinct.

After Alicia greeted him warmly, Pharaoh twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled back.

Finally Delos slowly opened his arms to Elyse, and said softly: "Alyse, welcome back."

"This... has always been your home—"

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Alicia's crisp laughter.

"Come to the king and kiss the king's feet."

As she spoke, she smiled happily.
