Egyptian Mythology: Daily Life of the Desert God

Chapter 48 Shu’s request
Isis looked at Hathor, with perfect facial features, perfect head-to-body proportions, and perfect clothing and accessories.

Most importantly, she turned to Seth.

It seems that Hathor and his younger brother are getting married, which is not bad.

Thinking about it, Isis lowered her head and glanced at the wind chime flower god and the snake god, her eyes full of coldness.

Set was a little surprised by Hathor's support.

But if you think about it for a moment, you will understand.

Hathor thought her plot had succeeded and that he was her dead and resurrected lover Eamon.

Naturally, she would stand up and support him.

Hathor's words also temporarily silenced the god who wanted to target Set.

La's perfect facial features revealed a warm smile.

"There is no need to feel wronged, my child."

"Lies and slanders are like bubbles that will eventually be popped."

"I trust you, and so do the gods."

Seth wiped away the tears and said movedly: "Even if there are slanderers, the eyes of the gods are bright."

The wind chime flower god and the snake god were trembling with anger.

The lower gods and upper gods who were not attached to the desert were also very angry.

"The lie has been clarified, so the change of the desert landscape should also be carried out." Kebu said suddenly.

Seth looked over and saw Keb and Nut smiling brightly.

"I have already discussed this matter with the God of Order." Seth spoke immediately.

"The desert occupies 80% of the land, which is not conducive to the increase of human numbers."

"I am willing to temporarily give up 70% of the desert territory."

"Leave it to the God of Life and Plants to change it into a plain landscape."

"Until the human soul is enough to support the recovery and growth of the underworld, it becomes a world like the human world!"

Giving up territory is a sure thing.

Then he would take the initiative and temporarily hand over these territories to Isis and Osiris who were kind to him.

After all, apart from Isis and Osiris, other gods can also use their authority to change the landscape.

If it were left to Ra to designate a god, Seth would die of diaphragm if he took advantage of a god who was hostile to him!
Isis sighed silently.

Getting 70% of the territory would be of great help to her and Osiris.

However, she was unwilling to let Seth compromise herself.

However, this matter cannot be changed.

Osiris also looked sad.

Nephthys' eyes stayed on Osiris, with an unclear expression.

Keb and Nut had expected it and were not surprised.

Sekhmet looked regretful.

Bethet had pity in her eyes.

Hathor tried hard not to look at Set.

Thoth recorded the contents of divine councils.

Mat, Tefnut and other main gods had expressionless faces.

"God Ra, the desert god has indeed discussed it with me." Shu said.

"Very good." Ra smiled with satisfaction: "As Seth said, leave it to Isis and Osiris to change the landscape."

Everything is settled at this moment.

Most of the lower gods and upper gods are feeling extremely happy at this moment!
They were just angry, but Seth had actually lost his authority!
Seth sat on the divine throne, looking at the lower gods and upper gods who were hostile to him, and silently noted them in his mind.

Thoth saw that the god Ra was silent.

He knew that the divine meeting was about to end and was just about to get up.

"La Shen." Shu suddenly said.

The eyes of the gods fell on Shu.

Shu looked at the God of Ra and said respectfully: "The Desert God voluntarily gave up 70% of the desert."

"The result may be serious injuries, which will take a lot of time to heal."

"I would like to ask the god Ra to give the desert god new authority."

"With the support of new divine power, the Desert God can avoid serious injuries."

As soon as the words fell, the gods were in an uproar!
Even Seth was shocked.

He had made plans to ask Ra for new authority.

But I've never been 100% sure.

After learning from Shu that Thoth had also been rejected, and after receiving the power of human and broken destiny, he had given up on this idea. Why did Shu mention this?
The lower gods and upper gods, who felt happy just now, panicked.

They wanted to retort, but there was no reason to do so.

After all, Seth took the initiative to sacrifice himself first.

It was not Seth who proposed new authority.

Tefnut spoke at this time: "Ra, Seth indeed deserves new authority."

Thoth remained silent, waiting for Ra's response.

Matt said: "Seventy percent of the desert, based on the principle of fair trade, deserves new authority."

Isis, Osiris, and Nephthys agreed.

To Seth's surprise, Keb and Nut did not object.

The main gods such as Best and Sekhmet did not express their opinions.

Ra scanned the gods, taking in the expressions of all the gods, and finally looked at Shu.

"Having the fourth kind of authority will impact Seth's lost true name."

"Slowing down the speed of changing the desert landscape can prevent Seth from being seriously injured."

"Yes." Shu lowered his head and replied.

Disappointment flashed in Seth's eyes.

Sure enough, Ra would not give him new authority.

The attitude of the Lord God is just like what he just expressed.

The supporters are disappointed, the non-supporters are happy, and the spectators are expressionless.

The upper gods and lower gods became excited again.

Thoth stood up and shouted: "The divine council is over!"

Ra turned into a sun, passed through the dome of the Pantheon, and left.

The upper gods and lower gods also began to leave quickly.

They were afraid of being blocked by Seth.

Seth did not intend to stop them, but just wrote down the name of the god who danced most happily.

Revenge is a lifelong matter.

The life of the eternal God is eternity!

Isis came over and comforted Seth: "Brother, we will transform the desert landscape at the slowest speed."

"Also, come back to the temple with us."

"I don't want you to be seriously injured like before and have to sleep in the temple."

"Yes, come back with us." Osiris also came over and said.

Seth smiled and said, "Sister, brother, don't worry."

"As long as you slow down, I won't be seriously injured."

"But I can't go back to the temple with you."

"Gods such as the Dragon Blood Tree God and the Sea Buckthorn God rely on the desert."

"Now the desert is going to be changed and they have to be relocated."

"I want to go back and demarcate the location of the desert."

Seeing Seth's persistence, Isis knew that he would not change his decision.

"I know, be careful."

"Yeah." Seth nodded.

After saying that, Seth was about to leave.

Not far away, Hathor's eyes flashed with anxiety, but he did not dare to show it.

Suddenly, she thought of an excuse.

"Set, wait," Hathor called.

Seth stopped, looked at Hathor, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Thank you for helping all mankind." Hathor smiled and took out a seven-color flower seed: "The flower I cultivated."

"I hope the fragrance of the flowers can ease the pain of losing your authority."

Seth smiled slightly, took the flower seeds, and said, "I like the color of the flower seeds very much."

"Thank you, Hathor."

Hathor's perfect smile was even more perfect: "As long as you like it."

Best looked at Hathor and couldn't help but whisper to Sekhmet who was standing aside: "Why do I feel that Hathor is weird?"

"I don't think so." Sekhmet shook his head.
