Records of annual sacrifices, petitions from pilgrims, formal written application materials...

Anubis, are you still organizing the materials? Lord Ifurito is coming soon.

Everything is already organized, just need to do a final check.

Don't worry, with me and Horus by your side, everything will go smoothly.

Thank you, Bastet.

Let's go.

May your soul shine forever, Celestial of the Kasi tribe, Lord Ifurito.

...

The last time I heard this phrase was before the Dark Ages, I know what you want me to do by coming to find me.

I'll just get straight to the conclusion, I disagree.

Would you like me to listen to your specific requirements first?

Isn't your purpose to restore the status of the priest?

You can go find someone else, I'm leaving.

Nebu has not held a formal ceremony for many years. My purpose is to restore the tradition of priests performing sacrificial rituals, nothing more.

Other powers, we can discuss further.

Can other powers be discussed?

Alright, if you want me to agree to return the power to hold sacrificial ceremonies to the priests, then the choice of the high priest must be designated by me.

This is impossible. Besides you, I have to persuade several guardian gods of the big tribes, and the high priest has too much power, so it's impossible to decide now.

I allow you to have a maximum of one alternate slot for a high priest.

I can also guarantee that the person you choose will definitely hold a ceremony of a highest level in the future.

As long as that person is a qualified priest.

Not enough, not enough at all.

When you figure out what you can give me, come find me.

How is it?

Ifurito is not interested in restoring the ceremony, she only cares about the interests of the tribe, as long as there are enough benefits, she is not a problem.

...I just can't come up with the price to make her speak.

Take it easy, after all, these Celestials have faced the oppression of the priests, maybe she is just giving you a hard time.

After hearing the voices of the pilgrims, they will surely agree to restore the power of the priests to perform sacrifices.

I hope so, I'm really not good at these things.

Who's there?

Don't be nervous, Lord Anubis.

I bring you good news.

You are Hemetto... Wadjet's person.

Didn't she come in person?

Not everything requires one's personal presence, Lord Bastet.

Anubis invites Wadjet to come, nothing more than to persuade Wadjet to agree with your point of view.

Wadjet was already prepared to agree, so what difference does it make whether they come or not?

That dangerous woman always looks far ahead, so her agreement with me is not surprising. However, there must be a price for her consent, right?

Your judgment of Lord Wadjet is very accurate, indeed we have an important transaction.

What do you need me to do?

Very simple, let me show you my strength first.

As expected of Lord Anubis. With this, the last piece of the puzzle is also accomplished.

Puzzle?

Don't worry about what I said, it has nothing to do with our transaction.

Hemetto's attack was really ruthless, let me help you bandage it up.

Well, thank you for your hard work.

Are you really in Healing...?

Sorry, Horus always does the healing for me like this, I thought it was the correct procedure.

Lord Horus... you two have a great relationship.

So... transaction completed?

Not yet, agreeing to resume the sacrifice is free of charge, and the following is the content of the transaction.

A priest who survived the Dark Ages is preparing to take revenge on Nebu.

The surviving priest was named Set.

Set? In the dark ages, was there a powerful character with this name?

...Sister?

Huh?

The message has been received, and the transaction is now complete. Goodbye to both of you, and see you next time.

I didn't expect to hear your sister's name from someone in Wadjet, always feel like there's some kind of conspiracy.

Hemetto, she is the diviner who prophesied that Horus would unify Nebu.

She had no reason to deceive me.

I have a bad feeling, unrelated to the restoration of rituals, just a simple, bad feeling.

Are there any news related to priests?

An explosion occurred recently in the Land of Souls, but there were no casualties and the damage caused was not significant.

Land of Souls? How come you didn't tell me about such a big thing earlier?

So that's the reason why the pilgrims have been shaken recently!

Is the impact of this matter really that big?

Because the Land of Souls is the place where Celestials are selected.

Pilgrims do not care about war and tribes, but only about faith. They worship Celestial, not the person himself, but the incarnation behind this halo.

In the eyes of pilgrims, Celestial is the incarnation of God.

If something unexpected happens in the Land of Souls, it means that the power of God cannot even protect its own place.

I understand that, now the upper level of Nebu doesn't even want to give the priests the right to perform sacrifices, let alone the power to decide on Celestial matters.

However, will it really be that serious? It has been several years since the end of the Dark Age, and we have not used the Land of Souls, nor have we encountered any problems.

Not enabled and unable to enable are two different things.

If there are people with ulterior motives taking advantage of the pilgrims' uneasiness at this time, the consequences are simply unpredictable.

This is difficult to achieve, right? Pilgrims don't just listen to anyone's words.

What I'm worried about is this.

If Hemetto didn't deceive me, my missing sister really appeared, and she truly has the ability and evidence to persuade the pilgrims...

Sigh... We must prepare in advance.

I understand, I will inform Lord Horus about this matter.

Ifurito, I just received a message...

Ifurito sir?

Gone, just like that? Did they go back so quickly? Wait... is this a secret passage? Why would it appear here?

Hmm... What are they talking about?

You mean there is a priest who is using the panic of pilgrims to take revenge on the entire Nebu hierarchy?

That's what I mean, Lord Ifurito.

No wonder you are a ''fortune teller'', are you interested in leaving Wadjet and joining the Kasi tribe?

You're too kind, Lord Ifurito. I'm just passing on Lady Wadjet's message to you.

Don't be in a hurry to refuse, no one can predict the future clearly, it's not bad to leave yourself a way out.

...You're right.

Who?!

Ignorant fool, how dare you eavesdrop?

How is it you?

I just wanted to tell you a piece of news, but I didn't expect that Hemetto and I had the same idea.

I'm quite curious about your reaction.

What can a tiny priest do, even with the help of those devout pilgrims?

Ifurito, sir! Excuse me, we have received an urgent message.

Nile was captured by a priest of unknown identity.

...

...

Lord Anubis, everyone is preparing to rescue Lord Nile, aren't you going to get ready?

Since everyone has gone, it shouldn't make much difference if I'm not there.

...

...

Don't be like this, Lord Anubis, I will try my best to answer your questions.

You looking at me like this, I am flattered.

I am thinking about which question to ask you first.

My sister... I haven't heard any news about her for a long time, I hope you can understand.

I understand very well, I really do.

Phew, about sister taking revenge on Nebu... Is it Lord Wadjet's command or her own will?

I really want to say that this is the command of Lord Wadjet, but unfortunately, it is not this time.

Your sister's hatred for Nebu has reached a desperate point, she even attacked Lord Wadjet.

Did sister have a fight with Wadjet?! Was she injured?

Cold Sil, Lord Anubis, she's fine, otherwise she wouldn't be here now, and she has captured Lord Nile.

Tell me, where is she?

I also want to tell you, but I don't know her location either.

Please understand.

One last question, how has my sister been doing all these years?

...My answer may not be what you want to hear.

I understand.

The last one is not a question, but a request.

I heard that your fortune-telling is very accurate, and I would like to ask you to do a fortune-telling for me and my sister.

Do you want to do divination again? Alright.

Again?

Come, Lord Anubis, please hold this and then grip it tightly.

And then?

There is no more, the divination is already completed.

What is the result?

Hmm... I saw you standing with Set, and there were many people around, many of them wearing Bifrost uniforms.

Bifrost? Could it be that in the future, Bifrost and Nebu had a battle, and my sister and I both became captives?

No, you are not bound, in the scene I saw, you seem to have a good relationship with the people in Bifrost uniforms.

...Sounds like Nebu and Bifrost have made peace with a handshake.

It is possible that there was a significant crisis, and they had no choice but to unite.

I just saw a clip, blindly guessing the meaning is not significant, and it is possible that you guys started fighting in the next moment.

What a strange result.

Hello, I am here to look up some information about Bifrost.

Understood, this is the location of the information related to Bifrost, please review.

Thank you.

Next, it's just repetitive work.

Anubis? What are you doing here?

I am looking for information about Bifrost. My current general understanding of Bifrost is that they have occupied our holy land, and I know nothing else about them.

Recently, I suddenly became curious about this power, as we have failed twice in our Northern Campaigns, and there must be a reason.

That's already in the past tense, right?

The restoration of the sacrificial ceremony has become a fact, and after the faith in people's hearts is ignited, the humiliation of the sacred land being occupied by the enemy will surely be mentioned again.

If nothing unexpected happens, in the future, Nebu will definitely launch the third Northern Expedition.

I want to make some preparations in advance.
