In the spiritual world of Yami Yugi who closed his eyes, the nameplate engraved with his own name appeared in front of him again, but the writing on the nameplate was blurry and he couldn't see what was written on it at all.
Every time An Yuxi struggled to see what the words on the nameplate were, the darkness around him got closer and wrapped around the words on the nameplate. Around An Yuxi, the desperate wails of the civilians in the city sounded in the distance. In a daze, the words on the nameplate were swallowed by darkness.
Zoke's voice rang in the ears of Yami Yugi who closed his eyes: "Give up, nameless Pharaoh, this world has been shrouded in darkness, and your lost name has been lost in the endless darkness and despair. "
"How much darkness can be dispelled by the light you shine alone?"
After swallowing the words on the nameplate, darkness wrapped around Yami Yugi's body. Although Yami Yugi himself was struggling to emit light, the light was too weak compared to the endless darkness around him. The body filled with darkness became as stiff as a stone statue, and the dark crystal almost imprisoned Yami Yugi's spirit.
Seeing that the darkness was about to swallow up the last bit of stubborn light in An Yuxi's body, An Yuxi closed his eyes tightly and listened in confusion. From outside the darkness, there was a faint sound.
"What is this sound?"
At first, the sound was a bit noisy and chaotic. An Yuxi could only hear the wails of the civilians who had been disturbing him just now, and the despair seemed to be affecting him as well. But gradually, among the desperate complaints, curses, and cries, several voices gradually became clearer and louder.
"Game!" This was the voice of Jonouchi and Honda;
"Game." This was Kyoko's voice;
"Game~" This is Hayato's voice;
"Game!" This was Kaiba's voice.
Gradually, the sounds became more and more numerous:
"Pharaoh!" This was Seth's voice;
"Pharaoh." This was the voice of the priests, Simon, Isis, and Shada. In addition to a few of them, An Yuxi even recognized the voices of Karim and Aknadi;
"Pharaoh." This was Mahad's voice;
"Prince!" This was Mana's voice;
"Child." This was the voice of his late father, the ancestral pharaoh King Aknamkanon.
More and more voices emerged from the despairing voices, ringing in An Yugi's ears. Along with it came one after another, either bright or weak light.
"Hold on, the Pharaoh and the priests are still working hard, we must also defend the city wall!"
"Just think of it as atonement for what you have done before. You should flee to a safe place. We soldiers will come to break up the rear!"
"Grandma said that Pharaoh is the incarnation of God, he will definitely win!"
One after another, rays of light passed by An Yugi, sinking into the nameplate that was completely covered by darkness, and the writing completely disappeared. At the same time, in the darkness behind the nameplate, the light opened up a path, one after another. Shadow appeared on the Path of Glory.
Friends he made in modern times, companions he met three thousand years ago, and the people he protected as a pharaoh, many people whom Yami either knew or did not know appeared in front of him, casting hopeful glances at him.
"Light, so much light." Even Yami Yugi couldn't help being stunned when he saw the scene in front of him. The darkness on his body was dispelled under the light, and the crystal that imprisoned his spirit was full of cracks and was about to break. Unable to help himself, An Yuxi stretched out his hand towards the front.
Holding An Yugi's outstretched palm with one hand, he saw his Aibo standing in front of him with a smiling expression.
"another me"
"Aibo"
"I see, I completely understand." The corner of Yami Yugi's mouth raised, and he also showed a smile, "With only one person's light, there is no way to illuminate the darkness, but the bonds gathered together will build an incomparable Shining light.”
"This is the real light!"
Yami Yugi held hands with the Yugi next to him, and both stretched out their other hands to hold the nameplate that had been driven away by the darkness. The words on it had been completely erased by the darkness, but Yami Yugi didn't care about this. Hold one end of it in your hand and raise it above your head along with the game.
"Everyone, please share some of your light with me!"
Like a reversal of the meteor shower, everyone standing in front of Yami Yugi donated their own light and surged towards the nameplate in Yami Yugi's hand. The gathered light illuminated the lost words on the empty nameplate. It was re-engraved bit by bit, and Yami Yugi's lost real name was written down again.
But this time, Yami Yugi, surrounded by light, read his name without any hindrance!
"My name is Atum!"
"Although human beings are associated with darkness, they are born to yearn for light. Human stories are born from darkness, but the ending is by no means a return to darkness, but a story that ends in endless light." Looking at the darkness in front of him, Dark Yugi, or Atum, said loudly, "Gather in the true name of Pharaoh, glorious humans!"
Holding the nameplate engraved with his name tightly in his hand, Atum opened his eyes: "Now, I hold hope in my hands!"
But in reality, as Atum opened his eyes, the nameplate that glowed like the incarnation of hope appeared out of thin air in his hand. Not only that, but Atum's own body also began to emit light, turning into a pillar of light reaching into the sky.
"Another game, he succeeded!" "Prince, he succeeded!" Seeing this, Kyoko and Mana hugged each other excitedly and were happy for Atum.
"Oh, it is indeed another game. It can easily do things that we can't do!" "It's really exciting and exciting!" Honda and Jonouchi also put their arms around each other's shoulders and looked at each other bathed in the light. Atum is obviously successful.
Hayato felt the light shining on him, and his body felt so light. The side effects of Zoke swallowing the sun with darkness seemed to have disappeared. Looking at Atum, he couldn't help but declare loudly: "Celebrate, transcend time and space, The king who was born in the past and grew up in the future has found his long-lost true name here. His name is Atum, the last dusk sun. At this moment, the legendary story comes to its final chapter!"
"Atum, is this the name of the Pharaoh?" Maliku bathed in the light of Atum and felt that his previously restless mind had calmed down a bit.
However, in contrast, Zouk only felt that the light that bloomed on Atum's body after he found his name was too dazzling, and even gave him a faint feeling of danger. There was a tingling sensation all over.
"Light, disgusting light! Could it be that you have found your true name, nameless pharaoh!"
In the sacred light, the three illusory gods who had turned into stone statues resurrected again, standing in a triangle and surrounding Zouk.
Looking at the three illusory gods, Zouk said arrogantly: "It's useless. I've said it before, human gods have no effect on me!"
"Of course I know this, Zork!" He looked up at the great evil god Zork. Although there was unprecedented darkness in front of him, Atum, who was bathing in the same unprecedented light of hope, took a step forward without fear. , “So, what about God’s God?”
"God, God?" Zoke was stunned when he heard this.
I saw the same light blooming from the three illusory gods as that of Atum. In addition to Atum, there were two other light pillars rising beside the three illusory gods.
"Is this light?" Surrounded by light, Set raised his head and looked at the blue giant in front of him, "[Obelisk's Giant God Soldier], is this the power of God?"
"Oh oh oh, the power is coming!" Beside Hayato, whose hair was blown up by the updraft, and with an excited expression, the golden sun god was flying, "even if darkness temporarily covers the earth, the sun will still shine forever. Come on, answer me, [Pull]!"
Behind Atum, the long red dragon [Sky Dragon of Osiris] was surrounded by thunder and lightning, baring its fangs at Zouk.
"Justice and the name of God coexist, and Pharaoh is the incarnation of God on earth. The names of Pharaohs from the past, present and future are gathered here to rule the three illusory gods!" Waving his hand to the front, Atum shouted, "Assemble The rising power will awaken the endless light god that creates all things!”
Not only Hayato, Atum and Seth, one after another light pillars rose into the sky. The darkness was instantly dispelled by this sudden burst of light. In front of Zok's eyes was almost endless light. The one percent, one thousandth, one ten thousandth possibility has now turned into a definite light of hope!
"Me, turned into light?" Jonouchi looked at his hands, a little dazed. Honda beside him was also illuminated by light, "I also turned into light? It's so warm."
"Is this?" "It feels really good." "What a gentle light." Not only the two of them, but countless people were enveloped in light, or they were all emitting light.
"We have all become light!" Yugi, who was also bathed in light, looked forward. Countless lights were gathering and condensing in one place.
Although it was his first time to experience this kind of thing, under the guidance of his heart, Seth raised the [Millennium Scepter] in his hand above his head and shouted: "In the name of the Pharaoh, the three illusory gods, and all The rays of light, merge into one!”
The endless brilliance transformed into a human form and stood on the earth. Although it has not yet revealed its true appearance, its mere existence makes people feel its majesty and holiness. The darkness and despair that had lingered in people's hearts before were now wiped out by that light. The power dissipates.
Atum put the nameplate on the [Millennium Cone] and punched the air: "Disappear, darkness!"
Hayato put his hands on his chest and wrapped his fingers around the [Millennium Wisdom Wheel], then suddenly opened his arms and shouted: "Now, shout out my/my name!!"
"[Creator God of Light - Harakti]!!!" X3→X∞
The golden god opened his eyes, looked at Zoke with calm eyes, and raised his arms to him.
Looking at the [Creator of Light - Harakti] in front of him, Zouk felt real panic and fear for the first time. It's ridiculous to say that the evil god of darkness, Zoke Nerofa, can absorb the dark emotions in people's hearts to increase his power. However, at this moment when the whole world is shrouded in light, the only fear he can absorb actually comes from himself. .
"No, it's impossible, I can't be eliminated like this!"
Unable to accept the situation in front of him, Zok punched the [Creator of Light - Harakti] with his fist, trying to eliminate the opponent before it attacked him, but his invincible power faced [Creator of Light - Harakti] at this moment. 】 But it was like a comic performance, and even the brilliance around Harakti, the Creator God of Light, could not be shaken.
As soon as Zock's fist entered the range of the light, it dissolved on its own. Even his immortal body had no effect and could not be recovered at all.
"Impossible, impossible! Impossible, impossible, impossible!" Without his hand, Zouk used his dragon head to spray out dark power and tried to attack [Creator of Light - Harakti] but still did not give up, but the result remained unchanged. , [Creator of Light - Harakti] In Zouk's desperate eyes, a ball of pure white light condensed in his hand.
"The light of salvation." The calm voice of [Creator of Light - Halakti] sounded, and he pushed the light ball towards Zoke.
"No, don't, I am the great evil god Zoke, and I am immortal!" In desperation, Zoke turned around and tried to escape, trying to avoid the ordinary-looking star that gave him a fatal crisis. The ball of light, and even thought about killing one or two more people before being eliminated, used the dragon's head to spit out dark magic in the direction of Hayato and Atum.
However, in the face of the attack of [Creator God of Light - Harakti], Zork only persisted for less than a second before being instantly wiped out, and this time the light penetrated directly into Zork's internal existence, and will have the ability to survive as long as darkness exists. The immortal body was wiped clean from its roots, and the dying-struggle-like attack had dissipated into nothingness before it reached Hayato.
"I am, immortal——" Before Zork could finish his words, he was swallowed up by endless light. The power of brilliance turned into a tower to the sky, standing at the location where Zork was destroyed, reaching to the sky, and covered by darkness The sun also reappeared in the sky, casting warm light.
The dark clouds were dispersing, and the pillars of light standing on the ground disappeared one after another, leaving only the [Creator of Light - Harakti] standing in place.
Looking down at the people in front of him, [Creator of Light - Harakti] said: "Three thousand years ago, when Zoke Nerofa came to the earth, the lonely Pharaoh failed to destroy it with only his own light. I chose to seal it together with my own name.”
"Three thousand years later, the gathering light of hope changed the ending."
"In the struggle between light and darkness, mankind has successfully moved towards a future of light."
"This ultimate dark game is the victory of Atum and mankind."
The golden giant god of light gradually became transparent and disappeared under the gaze of everyone.
I've been a little rushed these past two days, but at least I finally finished beating Zouk before New Year's Eve. I'll finish it off tomorrow and it will be the end of the Memory of the King chapter.
ps: Today’s little knowledge about Egyptian mythology——Harakhte is actually not a fiction, but an actual belief in ancient Egyptian gods. “Harakhte” means “Har-akhte”, which means Horus on the horizon and the rising sun. God (on how many categories of sun gods there are in Egypt)
However, he does not worship much and can only be regarded as a minority belief god. In the Egyptian mythology system, he can only be regarded as the giver and spreader of sunshine. This is also tied to La and is called "Ra-Harakti" (On Egyptian Gods) I like to ride on the popularity of La). I once (I remember it was around the 20th Dynasty, somewhat close to the era of Yami Yugi) also relied on La’s popularity to become a God of Creation. However, how much water is available is a matter of opinion. The more recognized Gods of Creation are mainly Still pulling.
To be honest, Mr. Takahashi’s choice of Harakti as the Creator God of Light is really flattering, especially since the appearance conditions are still the nine-pillar gods Ra, Osiris and Set (Obelisk is the obelisk, Set is the god of light) symbol of).
It is equivalent to summoning Lightning Warrior Guilford with Sword King, Red Daddy, and Destroyer Superior.
ps2: Harakti is the sunrise sun god, Atum is the dusk sun god, and Ra is the most recognized sun god, so it is the sun at noon. Other gods who have served as sun gods include Amon, Horus, and Aton. Wait, there are countless people who became sun gods by merging with Ra, such as Amon-Ra.
