Egyptian Mythology: Daily Life of the Desert God

Chapter 9 Son of God
Seth made up his mind to walk in human form from now on.

"Set, what's wrong with you?" Isis asked, looking at Seth whose expression changed again and again.

Hearing the sound, Seth shook his head and changed the topic: "Nothing, I just thought of Sun Wine."

"Sun wine." Isis said helplessly: "Unless another main god is born."

"Otherwise, you won't be able to taste the sun wine."

"There should be a son of God walking through the God's Gate today. Maybe a god, or even the main god, will appear." Osiris said thoughtfully.

Nephthys chuckled and said: "Brother Osiris, none of the current main god level beings are born as sons of gods."

"Yes, even the four of us ascended to the throne of the main god as demigods." Isis continued.

Seth did not expect that the topic would turn to the Son of God.

After the gods left the City of the Sun, many gods combined with all things to give birth to batch after batch of sons of gods.

The Son of God was born with extraordinary wisdom and could live for three hundred years.

However, the Son of God will remain a child throughout his life and will not grow.

Unless they cross the Gate of God that stands in the City of the Sun.

Then the Gate of God established by La will give them a kind of authority, making them become lower gods.

However, according to Seth's memory, during the thousand years since he became a god, no one of his sons had become a god.

Suddenly, the sun pattern on the white city wall burst out with golden light!

Golden falcons flew up from the city and cried loudly!
"A Son of God has crossed the Gate of God!"

Not far away, a god with a deer head and body said loudly when he saw this.

Seth looked at Osiris, who was a little confused: "Brother, maybe you are right."

"Maybe a main god will be born today."

Osiris hesitated for a moment and said, "No."

"Just go and take a look and you'll find out." Isis smiled.

Then they and the other gods quickened their pace.

In the City of the Sun, the gods tacitly agreed not to fly.

Passing through the city gate, there are wide streets paved with huge stones and engraved with red sun god patterns.

Beside the road, there are temples of different shapes.

A square temple made of white bones, a flower stand temple made of purple vines, a temple covered with grapevines...

A temple represents a god.

Seth's gaze passed over the temples of different styles and landed on the suspended temple in the center of the city.

Huge stone steps descending from all four directions connect the earth. Stone pillars engraved with divine patterns support the square dome. The stone walls behind the stone pillars are painted with portraits of the gods.

Over there is the place where the divine council is held - the Pantheon.

Underneath the Pantheon is the Gate of God.

Surrounding the God's Gate are the temples of the main gods, followed by the upper gods and lower gods in order.

By the time Seth and the Four arrived at the Gate of God, hundreds of gods had already arrived.

They stood in twos and threes with familiar gods, not crowded.

Set passed through the gods who were whispering about the new god and saw a tall stone arch engraved with a golden sun pattern.

And an extremely excited girl stood in front of the arch.

Wearing a red straw divine crown, a four-color Vesekh around the neck, wearing a long white linen skirt, and holding a bronze ankh in his hand.

"It seems to be the authority of some kind of plant." Isis said.

"It looks like red moon grass." Osiris looked at the girl's divine crown carefully and said with some uncertainty.

Nephthys heard this and wanted to say something, but a long white ostrich feather was stuck in one of her hair.

A goddess with a righteous look on her face and wearing a pure white dress arrived.

The eyes of the gods present could not help but turn to this god.

"It's Matt." Isis said.

Seth felt a little strange when he saw Matt arriving alone: ​​"Where is Thoth?"

"He should be by Matt's side all the time."

As soon as he finished speaking, a man wore a gold and green feathered divine crown. Wearing a Weseh made of emerald, citrine, lapis lazuli and gold around her neck.

On her arms, wrists, and ankles were gold rings engraved with sacred texts.

The man wearing a yellow, white and blue linen skirt walked quickly to Matt.

Isis smiled and said: "He's not coming."

Osiris and Nephthys laughed out loud at this.

The main god Thoth - the god of wisdom, mathematics, and medicine.

"They have such a good relationship, they have been together for millions of years without getting tired of each other." Seth sighed.

After Thoth arrived, he spoke a few words to Maat and then walked up to the still excited girl.

"Lord Thoth." The girl calmed down her expression and called out respectfully.

"Yes." Thoth nodded slightly, then took out a piece of papyrus and a reed pen, and wrote the following words on it.

"Sanler, the son of the god born to the lower god Sycamore."

"Crossing the gate of God at the age of two hundred and ninety."

"Get the authority of Red Moon Grass and ascend to the lower level of god."

After writing, Thoth told Sanle: "You already have a place in the Pantheon."

"Participate in the meeting held by God Ra tomorrow."

"Yes." Sanler responded loudly.

Then Thoth and Matt left.

The birth of a new god is recorded by the god of wisdom, which is a common practice and a kind of recognition.

Seth remembered that Thoth had recorded all the events worth recording over the years since the creation of the world.

And he made volumes of books and stored them in his temple.

With his consent, the gods could watch.

"It is indeed the Red Moon Grass." Nephthys looked at Osiris with admiration: "Brother Osiris, you are so powerful!"

"Because I am the God of Plants." Osiris was embarrassed by the praise.

Isis took Osiris's hand and smiled: "That's pretty awesome."

Seth automatically ignored these useless words and focused on a little boy in front of the Gate of God.

He looks eleven or twelve years old, wears a half-skirt, and has no aura of God on his body. He is the son of God.

He just noticed that aside from Sanle who had become a god, he was the only god son left.

Seth hoped that he could cross the Gate of God.

At this time, most of the gods had not left, and they all looked at the last son of god with curiosity.

Isis and the other three also noticed him and watched silently without speaking.

For a time, this son of God received all the attention.

He stood in front of the God's Gate, took a deep breath, and raised his legs to cross the God's Gate.

Seth, however, did not see his legs appear on the other side of God's Gate.

The last Son of God seemed to notice it and tried to retreat.

But after he struggled for a moment, his body turned into ashes.

"It's a pity that there is no chance of reincarnation." Isis said with pity in her eyes.

After the Son of God dies, he cannot follow the River Styx into the underworld and then be reincarnated. Death is death.

Seth wanted to say something, but when he saw the two gods in the distance, his face was filled with disgust.

Osiris, Isis, and Nephthys saw the change in Seth's expression and followed his gaze.

The faces of the three of them were instantly full of disgust.

And the two gods also came to the four Seth.

All the gods around looked at the two gods in awe.

"My children, the Mother Goddess misses you very much." The goddess of the two gods smiled kindly.
