Chapter 17 - Hollow/Signature Luck-

"On the Fifth Night of the Waning Moon, when Ra descends through the Western Gate and the stars of Orion guard the horizon, the Secrets of the Duat are whispered to the worthy — the night of Veiled Truths."[1]

After both Kherty and Monsieur continues to venture on further at unknown location which Kherty doesn't stop for any moment and continues to walk further on the desert...

Although Monsieur doesn't know where he is taking him, But Monsieur has no other choice but to follow him without any certain questions, but Monsieur keeps thinking about many questions...

"You don't have to think too much Monsieur" said Kherty while walking forward without looking back.

"How did you know that I was thinking?" Asked Monsieur.

"Boy, I can read peoples inner soul's consciousness, but I don't deceive peoples. But instead, I help people calm their mind and support them to be focused "said Kherty.

"What are you trying to point out?" asked Monsieur.

-I am trying to point out that-

"Monsieur can't handle the mind correctly right now" said Heimdall from Bifröst bridge.

"No, I mean he is not strong from the mind, but I am sure that he can handle it and adapt to the mind and control his thoughts and desire" said Freyja-The one whose (connected to fertility, love, and nature).

"We know that the boy isn't like his mother and is no-where close to {Seralyth Étheris}" said Freyja.

"I know it to, But the boy has the talent. Something's in this world can't simply bloom naturally.."said Heimdall in a deep tone.

-To bloom you need-

"Perseverance "said Kherty.

"Without Perseverance, control you can't do what is right and cannot control what will be wrong "said Kherty.

"Have you heard of a story where a mortal lost his temper because a god tricked him into killing his family?" said Kherty.

"Ughhh, No?" said Monsieur.

~Stop the cap- By the Author.

Monsieur continues to think and both of them still continued to walk...

Kherty stopped...

"This would take long.." said Kherty in a whisper.

"What did you say?" said Monsieur in confusion.

"Am sorry for now, I have to do it because I can't simply take you there" said Kherty to Monsieur.

"What, what do you mean?" said Monsieur.

*Pulls out a spear and stabs Monsieur*

"Wha, what are you doing?" said Monsieur.

"Am making a "Blood Passage"" said Kherty.

Quick note:About the Blood Passage which Kherty explained. It means that to kill a person and then take their soul to Duat (Underworld).

Why did he kill Monsieur? - Well normal peoples cannot freely enter the Duat because it is not possible, so Kherty killed Monsieur.

Kherty kills Monsieur without any sweat and then makes him a spatial form and then dives straight down the sands with Monsieur...

Kherty opens a gate with his calling... And takes Monsieur inside.

"Seba wꜥḥ!" said kherty in Egyptian language.

After that Both of them went to the portal and then went to a portal once more and then-

They arrive at the place.

Duat- The place of the dead's of the Egypt-

Quick info: There are different gods and different lands and also realms and places, to not be confused- there are different hell and different heavens. And also: When Monsieur went from Norse to Egypt, it was not just a simple walk. For Monsieur it may seem like a simple walk, but the dimensions were altered and then the places and the realms changed, and Monsieur came to a different reality. Keep in mind (There are countless realities).

"Woah! Where the fuck are we?" said Monsieur in a shocked and scared look.

"Welcome... child of the chosen one- this is Duat {The land of the dead's and souls}

"Now now, don't worry. It may seem like I killed you but in exact I just stopped your Ka and Ba. Although to resurrect you I will need a bit of assistance from lord Osiris but it's not the topic for now. "Said Kherty in a calm tone.

"Ah-ha~ you speak like you didn't see anything..." said Monsieur in a scared and shocked manner.

"I thought you have already experienced death?" said Kherty in a questionable tone.

"I mean I was in a place where i could die easily "said Monsieur.

"Well, keep the talking aside and then watch what I will show you.

_Quick step because the story will be to long_

Duat: It is known as the realm of dead's but is not only about the dead's but it's a place where a place of judgment, transformation, and knowledge. It's a cosmic space and not ordinary place to see. The sky's and the darkness where light is not clear but still visible.... the rivers and lakes and the water of chaos where screams of the sinful are heard...

There are Mountains, Gates, and Caverns, And the monsters' and serpents like Apophis

"WAIT Apophis????" said Monsieur in a chocked tone.

"That thing will kill me! Said Monsieur in a scared manner.

"Don't worry because it will be harmless Infront of us" Said Kherty.

"How so?" said Monsieur.

"Because I will protect you" said Kherty with confident and full honor.

"Oh and also, you see that very very far away place? Said Kherty.

"The one thing I see is Darkness and a unending river.."Said Monsieur in confusion.

"Oh-ho, I forgot that your senses are also impudent haha"Said Kherty.

"Is that a joke?" said Monsieur in a direct tone.

"Well, no" said Kherty in a straight manner.

"Enough of the jokes now, what I am telling you is that far ahead there is the "Hall of judgement where we can meet with Lord Osiris and he can help you with returning to the surface world" said Kherty.

"To be honest, why did you even take me here?" asked Monsieur.

"*Sigh* it is because..."

-I hope that you won't tell him about this and help him without saying anything- said Seralyth Étheris

"It is because... It is because it is my duty to protect the lost one who has gotten lost in one's thoughts, at first when I saw you. You looked lost and unsure of what you will do..." said Kherty.

"I can't just leave a boy like that, so I insisted on helping you out learn about these lands and make your journey one step easier. Well, I don't know about the journey which you are on, but I believe and you will succeed on what you are looking for..." Sait Kherty in a deep tone with a desperate eye.

"Well, keep that aside and clear your mind Monsieur. Because keeping your mind calm will help you with your adventures and for the destiny which awaits your call" Said Kherty.

After that shot conversation kherty continues to go forward on his boat with Monsieur towards the place where all truth lies...

But from the surface lands...

A mysterious caped man continues to walk in the blizzard's and through the lands of the sand where he is walking unknow Ly....

The man continues to walk towards the lands and to go on a destiny where he doesn't know what he is doing.

Fate does not await the mysterious man

But death has yet to claim the mysterious man- "Death can have him when it earns it"-

"I have to find him before he is taken," said the mysterious man.

"I have to tell him the truth," said the man.

"He is not ready!" said in a desperate tone.

"I will guide HIM!" said the man with determination and full of "Hope".

Midgard (Earth, the human realm)-

Ha~

[Inside a smoky casino, Loki sits at a card table in a sharp brown suit, smirking. Across from him is a nervous gambler named Chance.]

Dealer: "Place your bets."

Loki (grinning): "Oh, I don't bet. I win. The cards just haven't realized it yet."

Chance: "You sure talk big. What's your game?"

Loki (tossing in chips carelessly): "The game is chance… and chance happens to love me. Watch closely."

Dealer flips cards. Loki has a terrible hand.

Gambler (laughing): "Ha! You've got nothing."

Loki (eyes glinting, snapping his fingers): "Nothing? I am the god of mischief. Nothing becomes everything in my hands."

The cards shimmer — his hand changes into a royal flush.

Dealer (stunned): "That's… impossible."

Loki (leaning back, smirking): "Impossible is just another name for fun. Now, shall we raise the stakes?"

After the short game, Loki comes out winning all the bets and the cash. Loki goes to the nearest coffee shop and orders a coffee.

"What is your order sir? "Said the polite lady-Sarah.

"One regular coffee with two spoons of sugar please," said Loki.

After that short after he gets the coffee and he casually drinks~

Haa~ such a calm day for a calm time...

Meanwhile in Duat-

"Careful! Monsieur you might fall" said Kherty.

"I am being as careful as I can!!!!!!" said Monsieur while struggling to hold tight at the boat.

Meanwhile....

"So, you planned all?" said Þjálfi..

"Well, him going to Egypt was not in my plan but other than that yes "said Loki in a tricky attitude.

"But you know that everyone now knows what you did" said Þjálfi.

"Well, that is a matter of fact. But I suppose it's not an issue" said Loki in a direct tone.

"You sure are pathetic..." said Þjálfi in a serious tone.

*Loki drinks his coffee*

"I suppose that's a compliment..." said Loki in a laughing manner.

Back to Duat-

"We are almost there Monsieur" said Kherty in a calm tone.

"I guess you are experienced with the environment, but not me" said Monsieur in a state.

After that short conversation... Kherty and Monsieur continues to travel further deeper in Duat and Kherty tells Monsieur about every possible detail about Duat and further about Egypt which Monsieur knew very little about.

Although Loki knew that he will be a problem for later on, Loki doesn't mind him right now because he is not a serious issue right now. After Loki drank the coffee, He and Þjálfi went back to Asgard by the call-in of the rainbow portal...

Meanwhile for our fellow travelers-

Monsieur and Kherty finally reaches the hall of judgement where Monsieur will be facing on very important figures of Duat, and he will get to learn what deep hides under the places.

"Do you really think that they won't show any harm to me?"asked Monsieur.

"Ahh, it seems that you are still scared Monsieur" said Kherty.

"I understand that facing a path full of struggles is hard, but you have to know what the truth is and what is false..." Said Kherty.

-Suddenly Kherty senses an unidentified and unknown aura-

-Then what abou-

"I suppose we will have to end out conversation here Monsieur, I have many works to do to. Sorry to disappoint but I hope that you will find your answer" said Kherty.

Monsieur wants to ask him more questions, but Khery ignored his callings and then heads on his boat and goes back at serious speed...

Although Monsieur cannot understand what made him in such hurry, but Monsieur looks forward and then continues to walk forward inside the great layer of the god. After entering the hall there is absolute silence and the walls have unknown hieroglyphs, protective spells, and images of the gods who preside over judgment. The hall emits divine sense and great energy which Monsieur easily feels....

At the unidentified aura-

Kherty goes very quickly at eh location...

"Who are you unknown traveler" said Kherty in a serious tone.

"Your presence here is not correct I suppose" said Kherty in a direct tone.

"I came here not for any arguments; I simply request to meet that child" said the mysterious man in his deep voice.

"I may seem dangerous, but I am not," said the mysterious man.

"Then what is your purpose?" asked Kherty.

"To simply guide that boy, I have a promise to fulfill," said mysterious man.

"Tell me your name first "asked Kherty.
