Chapter 292 - Chapter 291 - Fam, Who Gets It!

---o---

To take her as a concubine...

Even though they knew this was just a trick by Ramesses II to forcefully change the subject, the audience outside the light curtain couldn't hold back.

This was just like in the first viewing when Gilgamesh proposed to Elysia—it was simply too absurd.

Besides… Ramesses II, you already have a wife, don't you? Aren't you afraid Nefertari will come looking for you?

---o---

[Light Curtain Barrage]

Sushang (Cloud Knight): "What did he say? What did he just say?! He actually dares to have improper thoughts about Little Gui!! I don't care what kind of king you are or how strong you are, I will absolutely not let you go!"

On the Xianzhou Luofu, Sushang slammed her hands on the table upon seeing this, startling everyone around her.

This was no joke. Little Gui was her confidante, her best friend. Now someone dared to have designs on her? Did they think she was just a pushover?

She didn't care what kind of king he was. Even a damn Aeon couldn't touch a single hair on Little Gui's head.

Yukino Yukinoshita: "Although it was just to change the subject, this shows that this pharaoh, much like Gilgamesh, is arrogant to the extreme, completely disregarding the thoughts of others."

King Arthur: "Truly a tyrant. He is even worse than Gilgamesh. Forcibly seizing a common woman… Utterly shameless!"

Detective Conan: "Wait, what's going on with Ramesses II's head? Did it fall off?"

Time Spirit: "How surprising. To still be alive after having his head fall off? What is this? A new type of Noble Phantasm?"

King of Heroes: "Hehehe… Hahahahahaha!!! What is this King seeing? He's like a common street clown! This King is going to laugh his abs off! Hahahaha!!"

Ramesses II: "How is this possible… How could I…"

In the Type-Moon world, Ramesses II's eyes went wide, completely ignoring the scorn from the King of Heroes. How could this be?

As the sole king of the land, the most powerful pharaoh of this era, someone had actually managed to sever his head!

And this was inside the Radiant Great Composite Temple, his own domain! Within this territory, nothing could escape his eyes. Even the strongest Assassin couldn't approach him without a sound!

But now… his head had fallen off.

Before the eyes of the entire multiverse, his kingly pride had been utterly shattered by this incident, and he didn't even know who the culprit was.

"Damn it! Don't let Us find out who did this! Otherwise…"

Ramesses II didn't finish his sentence. To be able to behead him within his own domain, the opponent's power was clear. But Ramesses II still firmly believed that in a head-on confrontation, his opponent would be no match for him!

---o---

[On the light curtain, the words of Ramesses II had stunned the entire group, but the most bewildered among them was undoubtedly Guinaifen herself.]

[What was going on? Why was she suddenly being dragged into this?]

[She was just standing off to the side, not having said a single word. How did she get involved?]

[And… taking her as a concubine?]

[That was going too far. For a young woman who had never even had a boyfriend, that sentence was nothing short of an insult.]

[Although Guinaifen didn't have a man she liked, there was no way she could possibly fall for an arrogant and conceited pharaoh, even if he could perform the head-removal trick!]

["Pharaoh… that statement of yours is a bit too much! You must apologize to me!"]

[After careful consideration, and to avoid being seen as a pushover, Guinaifen actually ignored Nitocris's previous warnings and spoke directly to Ramesses II on his throne.]

["Insolence! How dare you show such disrespect to the great pharaoh!"]

[Nitocris glared at Guinaifen with fury in her eyes. Given their previous interactions, she had warned her multiple times on the way to the temple.]

[But now, Guinaifen had still spoken so disrespectfully to His Majesty Ozymandias. It was as if her words had gone in one ear and out the other!]

[At that moment, Guinaifen completely ignored Nitocris, looking up at Ramesses II on his throne with a dissatisfied expression.]

[Beside her, Ritsuka Fujimaru glanced at Guinaifen, then at Ramesses II, before resolutely stepping up to stand beside her.]

[Even if that wasn't Ramesses II's true intention, since he had said something hurtful, he had to take responsibility for his mistake.]

[Seeing this, Ramesses II, who had just managed to fix his head back on his throne, was left speechless.]

["Apologize… A ridiculous joke!"]

[An apology? How was that possible? As the omnipotent pharaoh, even if he was truly in the wrong, it would only ever be others apologizing to him. How could he possibly apologize to someone else?]

["Fam, who gets it! I just got to this new world, haven't even had a hot meal, and I run into this jerk who says he wants to make me his concubine. I tell him to apologize, and he actually refuses."

["Little Gui's life is so hard! Hearing that jerk's words, I'm shaking all over! On a hot day like this, I'm covered in a cold sweat, my hands and feet are freezing! Hell is empty, and the devil is on Earth! Is there any hope left for this world?"]

["How am I, Little Gui, supposed to survive? The moment I think about the future, the tears just start streaming down my face. This world is filled with nothing but oppression against me, Little Gui! When will Little Gui ever be able to truly stand up on her own two feet?"]

[After Ramesses II refused, Guinaifen took out the phone from her pocket and began recording a video while lamenting her grievances, appearing deeply wronged.]

[Though, in truth, she really was wronged right now.]

[And as the greatest pharaoh on earth, the all-knowing Sun King, Ramesses II was completely dumbfounded at this moment.]

[He had lived for so long, what kind of scene hadn't he witnessed… Er… this was actually something he had never seen before…]

[He had originally thought Guinaifen wanted to fight him, but instead, she just took out a small box and held it up, doing… something.]

[Most importantly, the moment Guinaifen took out her phone, Ramesses II felt an ominous premonition. He had a feeling that his great reputation as a pharaoh was about to be ruined.]

[Beside them, Ritsuka Fujimaru and Da Vinci, who had been watching the whole time, couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.]

[That was a sharp blow. Far too sharp.]

[They never expected Guinaifen, who had been so mild-mannered before, to become so verbally aggressive when angered!]

[This verbal barrage could pierce the very stars. Forget Ramesses II, who could possibly withstand such an onslaught?]

[Standing next to Ritsuka, Mash's jaw dropped. The innocent girl was simply stunned that Guinaifen could deliver so many words in one breath without stumbling.]

[Amazing! So amazing! She would have to ask Miss Guinaifen for lessons later. Had she memorized all that beforehand? How could she possibly say so many consecutive sentences in one go?]

[And beside Mash, Bedivere, who had been watching the show, was also astonished. He had already been preparing for a fight, but now it seemed his preparations were a bit superfluous.]]

---o---

This verbal assault truly pierced the stars.

It had to be said, she was a livestreamer for a reason. All that time spent surfing the web wasn't for nothing. With just this one move, the audience across the infinite dimensions was utterly shocked.

Just how much time did one have to spend surfing the net to master a skill like that?!

---o---

[Light Curtain Barrage]

Sushang (Cloud Knight): "That's my Little Gui! That's how you deal with people like him! The Cloud Knights will always have your back!"

It was so satisfying! The sight of her tearing into that insufferably arrogant king was simply too satisfying!

Sushang had never been so delighted. She was so happy she felt like she could break into a dance.

Time Spirit: "Ara ara, I've always said you can learn things from watching the light curtain. Isn't this proof?"

Utaha Kasumigaoka: "Ramesses II really brought this upon himself. He's kicked a steel plate this time. He wouldn't go so far as to kill her to silence her, would he?"

You could never be sure. It was a real possibility. After all, although Ramesses II's achievements were great, he was known in legends as a tyrant. It wouldn't be strange for him to do something like that.

King Arthur: "If he is still a king, he would not do something so foolish. Otherwise… under the watchful eyes of the entire multiverse, he will no longer be worthy of the title 'King'."

---o---

["Hah…"]

[After reciting a long string of lines she had memorized from the Xianzhou web, Guinaifen's mouth was almost dry.]

[Putting aside whether it was effective or not, she had at least vented her anger.]

[The reactions of the others were also quite satisfying to Guinaifen. She had originally seen these lines on a website on the Xianzhou network called "Little Green App." At the time, she found them absurd and abstract, so she memorized them.]

[She never thought they would actually come in handy here. It seemed she could memorize more lines like this in the future.]

[With this thought, Guinaifen's gaze once again fell upon Ramesses II. She took a deep breath and said, "You call yourself the Sun King, yet you dare not even admit your own mistakes! Although I, Little Gui, do not like to use this move, if you push me, don't blame me for exposing you!"]

["..."]

[Silence… At this moment, only silence would suffice.]

["What is that thing? How can it cause this King to feel such palpitations?"]

[Staring at the phone in Guinaifen's hand, the omniscient and omnipotent pharaoh thought to himself, unsure of what to say.]

[Of course, he knew what a phone was. Even if the Holy Grail hadn't granted him the relevant knowledge, with his own omniscience, he could find the related information.]

[He had even used his Authority to create one to play with for a while.]

[Make no mistake, the pharaoh of the land was omnipotent. Especially within this temple, as long as Ramesses II willed it, there was nothing he couldn't do!]

[Even the sun and moon in the sky were not impossible to manifest within this all-powerful temple!]

[And yet… even so, Ramesses II had never felt such a heart-pounding sensation from a phone before!]

[After a long silence, Ramesses II surrendered.]

["Visitor from a distant land, We apologize. Our previous words were nonsense."

[As soon as he said this, everyone in the hall looked at Ramesses II in disbelief.]

[Are you sure you're Ramesses II, the legendary pharaoh? Not some impostor?]

[The apology of Ramesses II was like the sun rising from the west. Something that was thought to be nigh impossible had become a reality. How could they not be astonished?]

[It wasn't just the people from Chaldea and Bedivere; even Nitocris now looked as if she had seen a ghost.]

[She was all too familiar with the pharaoh's personality. How could such a great and arrogant pharaoh possibly say such words?]

[But the truth of the matter left everyone dumbfounded.]

[In reality, this couldn't be blamed on Ramesses II. His kingly demeanor today was almost completely gone.]

[It was all because of that damned Assassin. If it weren't for him, his head wouldn't have fallen off, he wouldn't have said such things in a panic, and he certainly wouldn't have been placed in such a predicament!]

[Thinking of this, Ramesses II wished he could grab that Assassin right now and make him feel the wrath of the sun!]

[To show no mercy at all! Any powerhouse who trampled upon the dignity of a king must bear the king's fury!]

["Hmph… Even though you look completely unreasonable, you're surprisingly okay. I forgive you!"]

[Although her attitude wasn't the best, for a king, what he had just done was the greatest concession he could possibly make.]

[Since that was the case, Guinaifen wasn't actually going to expose him or anything. Her anger had subsided, and the matter was settled.]

[And so, under these circumstances, Ramesses II's gaze shifted from Guinaifen to Ritsuka Fujimaru as he spoke again.]

["Although We made a bit of a fool of Ourselves just now, it was ultimately just due to Our recent poor condition. You all must not take it to heart!"]

[That oppressive kingly might once again swept through the hall, as if the entire incident had never happened.]

[This made Ritsuka Fujimaru inwardly complain about how quickly Ramesses II could change his tune.]

[With the recent farce over, Ramesses II didn't want to say much more. He waved his hand and addressed the group.]

["Listen well, Master of Chaldea. Since you are the Last Master of Humanity, then display the bearing that befits such a status."]

["The one who has turned this era into an anomaly among Singularities, who has utterly destroyed the foundation of human order, is seated within the desperate Holy City, in the ruins of Jerusalem where you wish to go!"]

["Her alias is the Lion King. She is revered as the Pure White Lion King!"]

["We can tell you, to conquer this Singularity, the first thing you must do is stop the actions of that Lion King, who has already become a god."

["Otherwise, this world will never escape its fate of destruction!"]

["Go, then. If you can truly stop her, then We shall not mind lending you some assistance. This is the boon of the Sun King!"]]
