"Why are you giving me this quest?" Adrian asked as this quest is a very heavy burden.
"To tell you honestly, the Distorted God Apophis has become stronger in the past years. We predict that in a year, it will be able to defeat me and all the western gods that aid me in battle." The God Set stated.
"Every night that we fight it, we can feel that the Distorted God Apophis is getting stronger. It seems that it might have gathered followers and might have chosen an avatar. Remember that half the power of Apophis is sealed in the mortal realm. It would not be foolish to say that a mortal might have found it and be granted the powers of an avatar." The Goddess Bastet stated.
"Since this concerns the fate of the world, I will gladly accept. Since the former envoy of the Goddess of Night is already in my hunting list anyway. She is slippery as a shadow, and it is difficult to track that monster. The Vestige of the Sun God in the arms of the leader of the angels is another thing altogether.
How will I be able to steal from a being that rivals the Daemos Elders? I will not be able to do so unless the angels are distracted or if he keeps the Vestige of the Sun God at arm\'s reach." Adrian stated as he knows that he is yet to match Mikhail\'s power level.
"Do not worry about that Champion Equinox as we know that you are crafty enough to find a way. If it may help, the Seraphim Mikhail does not have the authority to wield the power of the Sun God. Angels are unable to use the authority of other gods other than the Goddess of Light unless they abandon her." The God Set stated.
"There is a good chance that the angels are using the Vestige of the Sun God that represents the noonday sun as a power source. The noonday sun is where the abilities of the Sun God Ra is at his peak which is why it should be used to power something. They might not be able to use it freely but reusing the powerful energy coming from it should be possible for them." The Goddess Bastet stated.
"I will give it my best shot. It is not like the end of the world is going to come if I fail. Oh! Wait! It is…so no pressure on my part." Adrian muttered to himself as he laughed dryly as even the Transcendent tier skill book is not appealing for the consequences.
"I shall gladly accept the quest, but I request something in return from the both of you. I need you to tell me how I can use the Vestige of the Sun God that represents the morning sun to be the power source for my soulbound\'s evolution." Adrian asked.
"Since just using it with raw power might kill your soulbound. You need the help of a Temple of the Sun God." The God Set stated.
"But there are no more Temples of the Sun God, if I believe with what you said." Adrian stated.
"There is no more operational temple just like you said because the angels destroyed them, but a broken temple should be usable. The Champion of the Sun God will be able to help you operate the temple but even he will need help." The Goddess Bastet stated.
"There is a Champion of the Sun God?!" Adrian stated in shock as he did not expect that a missing god will have a champion.
"There is a Champion of the Sun God which also surprised us when we found out. We actually thought that the Sun God rose when he came to the western continent, but it seems that his soul was just branded by the Will of the Sun God. He is just like you Champion Equinox as he is a Blessed Child." The God Set stated which means the Champion of the Sun God is actually a player.
"Where can I find him then?" Adrian asked.
"Do not worry my child as I already called for him. If getting your soulbound to evolve will make you stronger for the quest of returning the Sun God to his power, then we shall make sure to aid you as best we can." The Goddess Bastet stated.
"In fact, you two are actually not alike but both of you have some similarities. The Champion of the Sun God is actually willing to do what is right if the world is at stake. He even told me that I was an evil god when we first met as he was influence by biased stories from his previous world." The God Set stated with a hefty laugh.
"We shall also let our avatars help you while you are on the Temple of the Sun God. You shall need their aid as the broken temple should be located at the deepest parts of the Ceaseless Desert. A place where even the rays of the sun can burn one\'s skin if they are not protected by golden armor." The Goddess Bastet stated.
"For the time being, we shall hide the aura of the Vestige of the Sun God so that the angels or a follower of the Distorted God Apophis can detect it." The God Set stated as he suddenly collected sand on his palm and sprinkled it onto the Vestige of the Sun God.
"I shall do so as well for extra protection." The Goddess Bastet stated as she cast a barrier on it.
"Now that we have done our part, we shall return back to our divine realms." The God Set stated.
"We have taken too much time descending to our avatars and they must be tired." The Goddess Bastet stated.
"May the light of sun guide you to where you should be!" The God Set and Goddess Bastet stated simultaneously as their divine energy left the bodies of Sadiki and Estet.
When the God Set and Goddess Bastet stopped possessing Sadiki and Estet respectively, the two avatars slumped down on the ground as they became weak. Despite being avatars, having the gods descend on one\'s body is taxing. The gods also protected them from the powerful ray of heat earlier which must have burned up quite the stamina and mana.
"Both of you should rest as you were all possessed for a long time." Adrian stated as he asked Saena to look into the two.
"Thank you. We shall need to rest for a bit as our stamina has been drained." The High Priestess Estet stated.
Sadiki tried to stand up, but he was unable to do so. Seeing that the two of them could not even stand up, Adrian decided to call for help. Adrian opened a portal from Avalaon and out came the two prophets. It seems that they were just waiting for Adrian to open the portal back to the western continent.
It might seem like only the two prophets entered the portal, but Adrian could feel the presence of ten unique death energy signatures. The Silent Death Order came as well and will be a great help for Adrian. The thing that he will do is now concerning a god which means it will get messy if they get detected.
Just as Adrian is thinking about what the Champion of the Sun God will look like, a priest of Bastet came to them and told them that a visitor has come. The visitor that came was none other than the Champion of the Sun God.
