The body of the Distorted God Apophis retreated back to the far reaches of Duat . Duat is the home of evil beings that existed in the western continent underworld and the world of the living. It is a special realm connected to the divine realm of the Sun God Ra as he needs to visit it every night to fend off the evil beings trying to come to the mortal realm.
Ever since the body of the Distorted God Apophis got imprisoned in the divine realm of the Sun God Ra, it would always retreat back to Duat to recover its wounds and also to not be followed by the Sun God Ra or the God Seth. The western continent gods cannot cross over to Duat easily without preparation as they know that the evil beings residing there will attack them the moment they enter.
The reason Duat is there is due to the fact that the Distorted God Apophis is still alive. Duat is the divine realm of the Distorted God Apophis which means that it is also the master of all the evil beings there. It has been said that the evil beings in Duat are the beings that the Distorted God Apophis corrupted.
In fact, there were even some western continent gods that were turned into evil beings that are residing there. The identities of these gods have been forgotten as they can no longer even remember their original selves. These forgotten western continent gods are no more than slaves to the Distorted God Apophis.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe God Seth sighed with relief as the dangers of the night are done. The sun is rising again once more but his vessel reported him bad news. It seems that the Temple of Horus got attacked by the Shadow of Apophis but that was not the most grave of news. Another temple actually attacked them when they were being attacked by the Shadow of Apophis.
The vessel of Horus managed to survive along with some of the priests, but the temple was destroyed. A lot of people also evacuated to the Temple of Bastet thanks to the help of the adventurers. It is a good thing that the Vessel of Horus was alive but the Shadow of Apophis is now in possession of two fragments.
The God Seth then noticed the part that the body of the Distorted God Apophis that was still burning in an odd fire. Since the body of the Distorted God Apophis is divine, the substances that could harm it are very numbered. The God Seth tried to touch this eerie black, white and gray flame but even he retreated his hand.
The next thing that the God Seth knew is that the cut body part became ashes. The ashes is then absorbed by the divine realm which empowered it by a slight bit. The God Seth is amazed and astounded by his finding because the ashes were actually the divinity within the cut body part.
The God Seth then frowned as he was too late in action. If he reached his hand the moment the cut body part became ashes then he would have received the divinity instead. Since there was no one to receive the divinity, the divine realm absorbed it and made it its own.
"As expected of my father's divine realm, it is smart when it comes to opportunities. But what made that flame? It feels familiar somehow?" The God Seth thought but immediately put to the sideline as Sadiki was calling for him.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Children, I know that it is already too much to ask since you are protecting me. Can you give aid to my other children?" The Sun God Ra stated as he listened to the devastating news.
"Unfortunately, we cannot do it that easily. If we were to use a dispatch team then it would be extremely dangerous by the time night comes later. What would happen in another set of followers of Apophis comes to the Temple of the Sun while were not in full capacity?
We cannot defend both you and deal with the Shadow of Apophis as you have seen earlier. A lot of monsters came to the temple and their dead bodies were used to sustain the temporary body of the Distorted God Apophis. I am afraid to say this, but you are a thousand years too late when it comes to planning." Adrian stated as he knows the limits of his team members.
Adrian also used Netheros True Form and Nether Domain today. It takes up a day to recharge those two powerful skills which is why he did not use Aether Domain and Aetheros True Form. He planned to use the two forms interchangeably to make sure that he has a team wide buff whenever night comes.
"I am afraid that my guild master is correct, my patron. We cannot handle battles at two fronts when our enemies are many. We can obtain information of the other gods that is siding with the Distorted God Apophis though." Cairo stated as even he knows that the guild cannot do what the Sun God Ra wants.
"Then can you tell me which temple dares to betray their brothers?" The Sun God Ra stated.
"From the information that we gathered (the player forum), the name of the temple is the Temple of Shesmu." Adrian stated and the Sun God Ra frowned upon learning of this detail.
