Chapter 260 - The king!

Meanwhile....

Inside the King's chamber, Horus was sitting on his throne, glaring at the blank wall before him. A gigantic snake, was rolled around his wrist, with its head facing towards the man standing before Horus.

"But your highness! I saw with my own eyes. The Orfea enchantress had died. How can a child survive such massive fire on its own?"

"You were careless Augus! You did not keep a check after I poisoned Orfea! Somebody must have saved the child. Otherwise, how was she standing alive in front of my eyes?" Horus looked at his sword in disgust. "No wonder this weapon is of no different from others! It is not even made from the ashes of the young enchantress and elder enchantress's ashes are of no use to me!!!"

Horus threw away his sword in anger, almost hitting Augus's face. Augus looked at the King in fear. "Give me one more chance your highness. This time I shall not fail."

"Do you think Miso must have chosen her rightful owner by now?" Horus glared at Augus in anger, making him shiver in fear.

"I...I...do not think so your highness. The girl is still learning."

"Very well than. We shall follow the same strategy then. Cast the spell on me now. It's the right time!" Horus smiled wickedly looking at the blank wall.

"As you wish your highness."

Augus quickly drew a vast pentagon around Horus's throne with a white limestone and scribbled certain drawings on top it. He then closed his eyes and chanted a few 'mantras.' After another few minutes, he opened his eyes and stood up. "Now even if somebody kills you, you will be born again to take your revenge against that person. Only the weapon, made from the five elements of earth can stop this cycle and send you to hell. Till now, no such weapon has been created!"

Horus laughed loudly, feeling proud on himself. "Orfea's ashes are already inside my sword and Miso's ashes will now be with me. I will now possess the strongest weapon ever created in the universe."

He gently patted the snake, wrapped around his wrist. "My dear! Its time again. Give me your precious saliva. Last time it worked perfectly, had not it been this man's fault, I would have been the strongest man in all lands."

Horus then carefully unscrewed the topmost part his gold ring, which he always wore in his right hand. The ring instantly opened, revealing, a small empty container. He took his right hand closer to the snake and the snake dropped few drops of its saliva inside the container. He closed back the ring, smiling wickedly looking at it.
