The atmosphere on Elysian Fields was brimming with sound and emotion.
Humans had a better reception of Cleopatra than they had of Jingū; especially, were excited by the great armor she wore and beauty just as all stories said. The Egyptian woman in arena listened to all this, not avoiding drawing a proud smile and with guard down.
The deities had respect and fear for Nut's appearance; although looked like a little girl, everything around her drew danger. The Egyptians were the ones who expressed confidence, although no one wanted to talk more about her out of the same respect. Nut's golden eyes only drew great indifference, as if knew everything would end in an instant.
The little valkyrie Lifthrasir, sitting on Geir's lap, couldn't contain her emotion:
– So amazing, big sis! Two fighters who met!
– Yes. I didn't expect something like this to happen, especially when Cleopatra decided to fight even knowing who her opponent would be.
– Really? – the little Valkyrie got more excited – You let a human choose who will fight against!
The eldest stayed with those words, innocent but curious. For her part, Athena on her couch was truly happy.
– Cool! Lady Nut against a human who worshiped in life! The first fight between two acquaintances!
– A curious coincidence~
Athena sat up a little more to appreciate Cleopatra.
– They said that woman was very beautiful… And now I confirm it! At least, she's prettier than that… busty dork Aphrodite, but not as me! I wonder how she'll fight with that armor!
– Too bad you'll have to pause it!
Zeus's sarcastic exclamation caught the attention of the 2 brothers present.
– It's time for you to look for your brother, Athena.
– What? What are you talking about, daddy?
– I had already told you, you should look for your older brother; come on, go! The sooner you find it, the sooner you'll be here again!
Athena went blank for a moment, as if was considering obeying her father. After a while, got up to approach Hermes in a whisper.
– Go for Ares and I'll give you a candy~
– Athena!
– Yes, I'm coming daddy!
The goddess had no choice but to run out of the seats, making something similar to a childish tantrum.
Meanwhile, the three gods of the main Trinity Egyptian were with their fists clenched unable to hide their eagerness; that gave Khonsu time to think things over more than once.
« It's something… curious, really.
» An Egyptian human will fight against Lady Nut. If I'm not mistaken, Heimdall just said she was going to fight Sobek, but they changed her opponent… Huh?
» W-Where does that coincidence come from? An Egyptian human facing 2 Egyptian gods, and a last-minute change of fighter as if it… regretted a decision… »
Khonsu was a little annoyed at drawing that conclusion, but had to do something about it.
« I think someone should know about this. Considering what Gautama did 1000 years ago… These coincidences can only lead to one thing. »
The falcon turn to let the place, but Isis noticed his frantic movements.
– Where do you think you are going?
