Omega Summoner

The whole body of the Shadow of Apophis emerged from the Thorny Pit. All of the people on the site and the onlookers from afar shuddered when they saw its size. The Shadow of Apophis actually surpassed the length of what they thought was possible as it is a whopping 500 meters long.

They are now sure that the earthquake they felt earlier is just the Shadow of Apophis moving its body beneath the soil. Adrian immediately told everyone to escape as he knows that the Shadow of Apophis might become hungry from moving its entire body. A metaphysical body takes a large toll on bodies as they need twice the energy to move it.

Adrian also saw Cairo hanging on for his life which is why he told Sirius to get the poor soul. All of Adrian’s soulbound executed the commands of their master. They saved all the golden warriors and priests of the Temple of Bastet from their side. Sadiki, the Goddess Bastet, and the Goddess Ammit were still fighting each other despite the sudden chaos.

“I got it! We can now return to the castle.” Cairo whispered as he did not want to be heard by the Shadow of Apophis.

“Got it. Kanlaon!” Adrian shouted as Kanlaon shifted in size to just accommodate two people on his back.

Adrian also shrunk himself even though he is in his true form. Being big right now is not a good thing as that just makes you a bigger target. Despite this, the Shadow of Apophis did not want Adrian to escape as it still lunged towards the latter.

“Sirius!” Adrian shouted as he issued a command via their soul link.

[Your soulbound Sirius has used Samael’s Domain.]

A faint mist mixed with the Nether Mist in the area and Adrian along with the others vanished. The Shadow of Apophis managed to keep up with their last location and attempted to devour them but it got nothing. Sirius then made multiple illusions to confuse the Shadow of Apophis so that his master will be safe.

The Shadow of Apophis did not stop though as it started to devour the beings that are around it. Those beings are none other than the followers of the Goddess Ammit. Seeing what is happening to her forces, the Goddess Ammit became enraged and pulled away from her current fight.

The Goddess Bastet and Sadiki was about to follow her but Adrian along with Cairo showed up to pull them. Adrian knows that they will not be able to win if they were to clash with the Shadow of Apophis now. It would take at least ten vessels working together to make sure that they can defeat the Shadow of Apophis or seal it as the worst-case scenario.

“You damned snake! You dare attack the hand that fed you!” The Goddess Ammit shouted as she lunged towards the Shadow of Apophis to knock its jaw out which saved some of her followers.

“You actually dare to break the promise. Eat them instead of what is mine.” The Goddess Ammit stated as she pointed towards the forces of her enemies.

“I would if I could see them with my eyes. I am extremely hungry right now as I moved my entire body from this ugly pit. Losing a bit of your followers is nothing much to the result that I shall get when I regain the other fragments.” The Shadow of Apophis stated as its hunger is starting to overtake its rationality.

The Shadow of Apophis cannot see the forces that Adrian brought because Sirius made sure that they are also hidden from sight. The Goddess Ammit pointed at nothing and the only ones visible to the Shadow of Apophis are her followers. The black scaled serpent no longer cared what or who it eats because it needs the energy to even move to the next fragment.

“I think your vessel will be a fitting meal for me to get the other fragment. It is better if you offer her up to me right now.” The Shadow of Apophis stated. ℴ𝑚

“I shall destroy you myself! You greedy serpent!” The Goddess Ammit shouted as the body she was inhabiting suddenly became full of power.

The human sized body of Anipe suddenly grew to a fifty feet golden warrior that has the appearance of the Goddess Ammit herself. The crocodile face with a mane can be seen on the humanoid body. A thing that was added is a crocodile’s tail as well. The whole body is adorned with golden armor and white cloth.

The Goddess Ammit clashed with the Shadow of Apophis as both of them are now looking at each other as prey. The Shadow of Apophis did not back down as it knew that the Goddess Ammit will not be able to defeat it even though Anipe was a powerful vessel with perfect compatibility with her.

Meanwhile, Adrian and the others safely reached a safe zone where they could see the battle between the Goddess Ammit and the Shadow of Apophis. Adrian immediately opened up a portal in order to send the injured back to their territories. He sent the golden warriors of the God Seth first as they are guarding one of the fragments.

“We should not let the Shadow of Apophis roam free.” The Goddess Bastet stated as she is worried that the western continent will turn into a real barren desert.

“We have no choice but to retreat. We do not have enough forces to deal with it and the warriors of Ammit at the same time.” Adrian replied.

“By the looks of it, it seems that they already have a falling out.” Cairo stated as he pointed at the fight that the two are engaging in.

“I believe that Champion Equinox is correct. I do not want to admit it, but my forces are also heavily injured. We will only be become nourishment to the Shadow of Apophis if we attempt to fight it now. We must rally the other vessels to fight against it.” Sadiki stated.

“It is after the other fragments, right? What if I take the fragments away from the western continent?” Adrian asked.

“That is a great idea but an impossible one. The other fragments are sealed with the power of the Sun God Ra and it also holds down his divine realm. If the other fragments are unsealed, then they would also gain sentience like the Shadow of Apophis. If all fragments are unsealed then it will not be long before the body of Apophis sealed in the Sun God’s divine realm to be exposed.” The Goddess Bastet stated as she spilled the secret of the seals.

Just as they were thinking of a way to at least hinder the Shadow of Apophis, a powerful scream erupted from the Goddess Ammit that was fighting against the Shadow of Apophis. The Goddess Ammit is now being coiled up by the black scaled serpent as it menacingly stares at her. The Shadow of Apophis looks at her like a meal and laughed at the pitiful state of the goddess.

“Release me serpent! We had a deal!” The Goddess Ammit stated as she wanted to invoke the absolute promise that gods or goddesses make.

Gods and goddesses have things like covenants that they must always keep. If they are to not keep their end of the deal then they will lose some of their power for not keeping their word. The Goddess Ammit wanted to make use of this as she made a covenant with the Shadow of Apophis to be allies for a period of time.

“You think that a covenant can hold me? A fragment of what you call a distorted god. Let me tell you something that no other gods know. Distorted Gods do not follow the rule of the cosmos as we are entities that have evolved pass it. We are not tethered to the universe unlike you gods or dark gods.” The Shadow of Apophis stated.

“No! This cannot be!” The Goddess Ammit shouted as she saw the covenant being made. If she were to break it, then she would get punished.

“Just know that you have helped me greatly, Ammit. For the great help that you have given, I shall spare you when I devour all the other gods in the western continent. You can be my servant when I completely rise back into the world.” The Shadow of Apophis stated as it suddenly opened its mount wide as it continued to constrict the Goddess Ammit’s body.

When the body of the Goddess Ammit is bent and no sound of bones breaking can be heard, the Shadow of Apophis swallowed her with one bite. A powerful painful scream reverberated in the skies above as the Goddess Ammit felt the pain of having some of her divinity taken.

A vessel of the gods need to have some of their divinity in them in order to smoothly possess the body. When the vessel dies, the divinity flows back to the god or goddess but the Shadow of Apophis devoured it.
