A day before Leo returned to the ruined City of Ra, a fleet surrounded the City of Seth . The newly appointed Pharaoh, Almot VIII, stared out, thinking of his father .
"You have doomed us because of your revenge, father . Now we have no army to protect these walls . "
A communication from the fleet's General sent a message asking for the city's surrender .
"The City of Seth will never yield to anyone," Almot VIII replied .
A destructive weapon fired on Seth, turning it into a desert wasteland . Just like that, the bloodline of Seth vanished .
"Should've surrendered like the City of Ptah," mumbled the General . "Fleet move out . Our destination is the City of Thoth . "
On the General's order, the entire fleet flew to the City of Thoth . Soon Farshah would request help when his scouts reported that a fleet from Seth was incoming .

Keysol owed the Pharaoh for taking him in when he first arrived . Keysol flew through the air at his fastest speeds towards the City of Thoth . No one went with him because, in this world, not many could pose a threat to a Core Builder .
A fleet of ships with Osiris logo surrounded Thoth . A message from Osiris' General was broadcasted out .
"Pharaoh of Thoth surrender or be destroyed . "
"Why are you attacking us? We have never been at odds with Osiris," replied Farshah .

"My Pharaoh wishes to expand our empire and unite Duat under one banner . "
Farshah went quite . He didn't understand why Osiris' Pharaoh broke the unspoken rule and attacked them out of the Battle of Pharaohs . Thoth never had a powerful fleet . They were a neutral party that focused on the pursuit of knowledge .
"The city of Thoth, go to your battle stations and prepare for war," Farshah commanded to his people . He then replied to the General . "We won't surrender . "
"Have it your way, Pharaoh of Thoth . "
The largest floating hovering battleship landed, and a massive cannon came from its bow . A buzzing was heard throughout the city . Guards of the city began to board their ships and man the towers .
"FIRE!" Commanded the General .
Keysol had just arrived when the cannon opened fire . He was too late . A massive particle beam tore through the city wiping it off the map in seconds . The city couldn't even defend itself from such a weapon .
"I was too late . . . " Keysol said, trembling . He just watched all the people he knew from Thoth die . Keysol buried his fury and then looked at the giant cannon on the ship . "That is not a weapon Duat should have . "
Keysol recognized that the cannon was a weapon classified as a mana particle cannon . Only advance lifeforms had this kind of technology .
"General, reporting a flying warrior nearby . The Pharaoh said if we see any, we should take the initiative to send out the drones . "
"Follow his orders . Release the drones . "
Keysol couldn't understand where this cannon came from, but he had to stop it . He flew directly at the massive battleship . All of a sudden, a swarm of drones exited the ship and flew towards Keysol .
Keysol drew his sword . The drones surrounded him but didn't attack . They activated the barrier entrapping Keysol .
"What is this?" Keysol asked as he attacked the drones and the shield, but as he destroyed one another would take its place .
"The warrior has been trapped," A soldier informed the General .
"Fire, the cannon . "
"Sir, this will damage the cannon . It hasn't had time to cool off . "
"This warrior can wipe out our entire fleet . Fire the cannon!" ordered the General .
A buzzing sound echoed, and Keysol turned to see the particle cannon firing at him . Trapped, he could only face the blast head-on .
"Adam's Sword Art: Holy Strike!" Light mana encased Keysol sword . Brandishing his sword, he swung it to release an impressive wave towards the beam .
The particle blast tore through the drones and Keysol's attack . The blast landed upon Keysol, who was covering his body in mana . An entire mountain behind Keysol was destroyed in seconds . As the beam vanished, the winged human scorched fell to the ground .
Back on the ship, "Sir, reporting the cannon has melted the main barrel . We won't be able to use it again . "
"Tell the men we are heading back to repair the cannon . Also, send men to retrieve the flying warrior's body . "
The General had sweat dripping down his face . The man he just defeated took his fleet's most potent weapon to injure him . This warrior was like those gods from ancient times . He secretly praised his Pharaoh's insight .
In last month, the cannon was built . A design the Pharaoh had come up himself . The Pharaoh even started to become even more domineering . It was almost like he had become a new man overnight .
The Pharaoh's new dream was one he wished to see come true . He would use this new cannon to make the Osiris empire to come into fruition .
Leo and everyone started to worry when no word came from the City of Thoth . After a day or so went by, Leo flew there with Geph and Sepha . From their ship, they could see the only destruction . The City of Thoth was no more .
"It had to be those bastards from Seth . We are headed there right now . " Leo said with fury . Leo was going to let them off sense Almot VII was killed by Void Slayer .
Little did Leo know the City of Seth was also destroyed . Once he arrived, he was dumbfounded at who was attacking all of these cities . Without any evidence, he returned the ruins of Ra .
A few days went by, and the remaining cities fell to Osiris . The mana laid waste to any that opposed them . Many cities never yielded and were blown off the map . Only three cities gave in and enslaved . The Osiris Pharaoh had built his empire in less than two weeks .
An escaping band of marauders tried to hide in the ruins of Ra only to be captured by Leo . The leader was frightened when Leo caught every one of his men by controlling the earth below their feet .
"Why are you here?" asked Leo .
The leader responded right away . "Osiris is capturing all bandits and enslaving them . " Shia then popped into Leo's mind . "They have destroyed every city and now are going after bandits . "
"So they were the ones who attacked Thoth . "
"Yes . . . yes, sir," Politely responded the leader . He feared this god of a man who appeared out of nowhere .
"You may make camp near the outer wall, but do not approach the pyramid . I will kill all that get close . "
All of the bandits nodded . They didn't wish to die . Leo released them, and they ran off quickly . The group wanted to get away from this place as soon as possible, but the leader changed their minds .
"The only way to hide from a predator is to lay next to another one . "
After telling his men, they all understood what he meant . This earth god could protect them from Osiris' men .
Leo entered Ra's tomb and announced to everyone . "We are headed to Osiris . They are the ones that attacked Thoth . I'm afraid they might have captured Keysol or worse . "
"Leo, we owe you a huge favor . Count the two of us in," replied Geph .
Ever since Keysol disappeared, Dark Razor had been angry . He only had two people he liked on this planet besides his brothers . One was Leo, and the other was Keysol .
"Allow me to come also," Dark Razor said in a low tone .
Leo nodded his head . With the four of them, what on this planet could harm them? Void Slayer seemed worried and looked at Green Tooth .
"You go with them too . This time your only job is to protect Leo . "
"Yes, brother . " Green Tooth responded dejectedly . He still blamed himself for when the Deicide chased Leo off .
Like that, five Core Building warriors left for the City of Osiris .
