Chapter Thirty-Three: The Fear of Death

In his later years, Ahnaton began to fear death as his life ended little by little. He was afraid of the feeling of his body becoming weaker. He felt that death was constantly approaching him. Thinking of his glorious life, he was unwilling to end it.

He recalled the tall figure he met in his childhood, the archangel Farros who held his hand and told himself that he would become the king of humans, the divine envoy who gave him golden blood and divine sword, and the man who passed on the knowledge of the gods to him, he hoped to see that man again, even if he died, he hoped to go to the kingdom of God after death and become an immortal existence like that man!

Ahenaton began to build a temple of Mary, the goddess of light. He was like a devout believer, kneeling in front of the goddess' statue every day, praying and praying.

In the last two years of his life, he collected the gold and asked the most brilliant craftsmen under his command to forge a pure gold statue of the goddess of light. He built a temple that was even more luxurious than his palace, proclaiming the god of light as the state religion, and he was also a believer of the goddess of light.

Behind each statue of the Goddess of Light, there is a divine messenger wearing a mask and holding a scepter. He is the archangel Faros under the Goddess of Light, and he is also the man who gives the King of Light God's Qi and divine blood!

There are a large number of sacrifices in white robes in the temple, and there are pure goddesses who serve the gods. The King of Gold Ahnaton prayed for several years and spent all his efforts, but he did not see the gods until the night he died!

In the wide palace, there were flames burning in the fireplace, and the ground was covered with bearskin carpets tanned from rare white bears, and Ahnaton sat on a lounge chair with a gold crown inlaid with gems.

Ahnaton was covered in white hair, his face was full of wrinkles, and a layer of white catkins were borrowed from his eyes. He gently wiped the divine sword given to him by the envoy back then. The lion who was so handsome that he fought in the world now no longer had the strength to swing his sword.

Ahenaton sighed, but in a daze, he saw a shadow walking towards him. Ahenaton immediately raised his head. Even the late lion possessed the power of the king.

"Ahnaton, why do you want to see me?"

Ahenaton saw a figure wearing a white robe and a mask standing in front of him. The white mask with sun patterns and the familiar body made Ahenaton shudder.

"Is it you? Are you really here? Or am I hallucinating?" Ahennaton's voice was a little hoarse, but extremely excited!

Lu Zhiyu stood in front of Ahennaldon with a sigh of sighing eyes. The boy back then is now as old as this. The soft knife of time is the most terrifying: "Ahennaldon, you have done a very good job. You are the first king of mankind and will eventually be recorded in the history books of mankind!"

Ahnaton shouted, "But this is not what I want!"

Lu Zhiyu said in confusion: "That was not what you said back then. This destiny was chosen by you. You have all of it. What else are you not satisfied with? "

Ahenaton looked at Lu Zhiyu, stood up tremblingly, and looked at Lu Zhiyu's young body and powerful palms with fiery eyes. So many years have passed, and time has left no trace on Lu Zhiyu's body.

"But I will still die. When I grow old, I realize that all this is just a passing cloud. Only you, only gods, are eternal! I also want to be like you, I want an eternal life!"

Lu Zhiyu burst into laughter and said the same words as before: "You are too greedy!"

Ahenaton walked towards Lu Zhiyu and said angrily: "No, I have completed the mission you have assigned me, and you should give me a reward!"

Lu Zhiyu shook his head: "We have not given you any mission. The choice of fate is in your hands. You have chosen your own destiny. I once told you that God has given you life, wisdom, powerful abilities, and abundant pastoral and the whole world. Do you still have to satisfy all your desires and requirements?"

Lu Zhiyu looked at Ahnaton's eyes: "The gods are not slaves of your family. We have given your choice of fate to your own hands. Since you are dissatisfied, you can find a way to change and change your destiny, instead of blaming everything on the gods."

Lu Zhiyu sighed: "You have never done anything for us. Everything you do is for yourself, but greed makes you dissatisfied, and what you can't get is the best!"

Ahnaton immediately shouted, watching from side to side, dancing with his hands and eyes showing a crazy look: "I can exchange things for anything, no matter what, money, power, beauty, everything, just give me a young body!"

Lu Zhiyu chuckled and said, "Everything you is given to you by us. Do you exchange it with me for the things I gave to you?"

Lu Zhiyu did not mean to talk to Ahnaton anymore. He turned around and his body turned into a ripple and disappeared from the spot. Seeing this, Ahnaton immediately chased after him: "No, you can't leave, I have completed your mission, you can't do this, this is what you owe me, you liars, liars!"

Ahenaton roared wildly in the hall, angrily destroying everything that could be seen in front of him, and finally fell to the ground like a child: "Don't leave, don't..."

At this time, the guards outside rushed in and saw Ahennaton lying on the ground, his eyes lost their distance, and he died in his palace. He was still holding the divine sword that Lu Zhiyu had given him back then, and his eyes were looking at a mural on the wall. It was a scene where a man presented a bag of grain and long sword to the boy in the sunset!

"King, the king is dead!"

The guard ran out in panic. The news of the death of the King of Gold Ahnaton immediately spread throughout the entire Golden City. The alternation of the royal power continued, and Ahnaton's son took over his position and continued the Golden Dynasty.

Lu Zhiyu suddenly wanted to visit Ahenaton. I have to say that the decades have changed too much, and the feeling of standing outside the world and within the world is completely different.

Ahnaton envied immortality because the time flow rate of Lu Zhiyu was different from his time flow rate. Lu Zhiyu was not as immortal as he imagined.
