Omega Summoner

"I thought that they already have been accustomed being around godlike beings. They are the acquaintances of beings that also possess some divine energy." The Sun God Ra stated.

"We are not radiating divine energy though. It is not something that normal people should encounter as you know. Still, for them to be 'blessed' by the Sun God Ra is a good thing. They would not pass out when they get blasted with the negative energy by the Shadow of Apophis later." Adrian stated which suddenly made all his guild members shudder.

The guild members thought that only Solstice was the one that likes to put them in danger but it seems that their guild leader was not a demon just for show. There is an analysis that say that virtual reality often represents the inner being of the person. They now see that their guild leader is not the gentle and carefree person that they thought he was.

"So, why did you want to tell us about the Sun God Ra?" Kabrakan asked as he knows that they were not sent here without a purpose.

"The Sun God Ra is the antithesis of the Distorted God Apophis. As long as he returns back to his full power then the Shadow of Apophis will not be a problem. We need to help him regain his full power as much as possible or at least to the point that he can destroy the Shadow of Apophis." Cairo explained.

Adrian then told them that they will not be actively participating with the hunt against the Shadow of Apophis. Their real duty will be to guard the Sun God Ra in recovering his power. They thought that this would be easy but Adrian burst their bubble as reality sinks in things like this.

"We would probably be the target of the monsters that the Shadow of Apophis have taken control over. We will be all alone in a vast desert that is one of the danger zones. Powerful desert monsters all around us while we help the Sun God Ra get back his power." Adrian stated.

The sudden announcement made the core guild members shudder. When Adrian says things like these then they would fight continuously for three days at the very least. They would need a schedule so that they can continuously fight through waves of monsters in a sequence.

"Let us proceed to the western continent then. To the Hidden Temple of the Sun!" Adrian stated as all of them that will go to the western continent vanished from the castle. The parents of the prince prayed to the Sun God to always protect their son.

"Why are we falling!" A lot of guild members shouted as they suddenly appeared above a vast desert. They were able to speak since Adrian did not teleport them to the very atmosphere above the Hidden Temple of the Sun.

"We cannot go directly into the temple because it is protected from external forces. I want to know the mechanism behind that because that would be helpful in Avalon." Adrian replied as the view of the temple marker could be seen.

The guild members that experienced this first hand suddenly thought that they will be blessed with death by falling. They covered their eyes with their arms and waited for the status message to say that they died. Contrary to what they believe, they suddenly felt that they stopped from falling as the wind no longer hits their face.

When the scared guild members opened their eyes, they were greeted by the sand of the desert that is three inches in front of them. All the other guild members could be seen suspended in animation as Adrian used Gravity Manipulation to suddenly make them float. Adrian then cancelled the Gravity Manipulation which made those that were not able to correct their posture have their heads buried in the sand.

"To think that I would once again have my feet on the sands of the western continent. I really missed it as this was where we solidified our presence." The Sun God Ra stated as he pushed his right hand into the sand to really feel it.

"The warmth of the sands of the west and the powerful rays of the sun that keeps the reminder that everything touched by it is alive. I missed this." The Sun God Ra added.

"I shall now open the portal to the temple." Cairo stated as he needed to give everyone a tour of the Hidden Temple since they need to know every nook and cranny.

"No need, my champion. I shall raise the temple on my own but I would need the help our resident demon to do such a feat since my own powers will not be enough." The Sun God Ra stated as he looked towards Adrian.

"If you do that then that would mean that the enemy will know that you have resurrected." Adrian stated in worry.

"I changed my mind as hiding will only make me regaining my powers slower. I could feel that the Shadow of Apophis has started to gather more power than before. It is currently more powerful than me as it took a lot of time to consolidate it. I am worried that the western continent might fall in just a month with the way things are going." The Sun God Ra stated as he immediately felt the state of the western continent when he touched the sand.

"Fine! But you must give us something in return because this would really stretch us to the limit." Adrian replied as he listened to the instructions that the Sun God Ra stated.

The Sun God Ra then absorbed the energy of the sun that is being radiated right now and floated in mid-air. The whole area suddenly felt like gravity became heavier as the Sun God Ra exerted his authority over it. A large magic circle is then slowly being drawn into the sands that spans wide.

"I have prepared the magic circle to raise my temple to the surface. All you need to do is to pull it out with all your might. I shall aid you in this as well since it will be too much for you to pull all of the temple when it is already the size of one of your floating islands." The Sun God Ra stated.

Adrian then told the guild members to protect them should the disturbance attract monsters. If they get attacked then it would heavily injure their mana circuits or rather his mana circuits since he will be the one doing the heavy lifting. Adrian also summoned Sirius, Kanlaon and Kimat to attack any enemies that come along with his guild members.

Adrian gathered all the mana in his use as the magic circle reacted to him while the Sun God Ra supported him. The first time Adrian pulled using Gravity Manipulation made him feel like his insides were being crushed because of the heavy weight that he was trying to lift up. Adrian's pained expression could be seen as the Hidden Temple is heavier than he imagined but he can also slowly feel it rising.

"This will not be enough. Those that can help him are earth elemental mages. Push out all the sand on top of the temple as much as you can." The Sun God Ra announced as he knows that Adrian might overexert himself trying to pull the temple.

Levin Cloud, Peridot and Cairo were the first ones to react as they immediately cast earth elemental magic that controlled the sand. They helped Adrian by pushing it away since they cannot aid him with the actual heavy lifting. Only a very powerful Esper will be able to help Adrian at this point.

"It is indeed getting easier!" Adrian exclaimed as he focused on pulling the temple out of the sands.

Sand might be light when a few grains are lifted but it is a different thing once they get compact. They will become heavier than stacked pebbles if the sand itself becomes very compact. The heaviness is due to the fact that the entire temple is buried in metric tons of sand. The temple itself is also very heavy which means Adrian is pulling two things.

Just as they were seeing some progress since the sand that covered the castle started to shift, monsters that were hiding in the sand started to rise up into the surface as they were disturbed. The monsters were none other than Sand Scorpions which are easy to deal with but their numbers are in the thousands.

The whole temple seems to be located just below the nesting area of Sand Scorpions as even their queen appeared to command them. The Sand Scorpion Queen is a field boss that roams around the deserts of the western continent.

The Pantheon guild just poked its nesting place where it usually just sleeps all day. All of this is happening while the Shadow of Apophis sensed something different about the western continent.
