Chereads / Marvel: Horus, God of Evolution / Chapter 17 - Flame On!

Chapter 17 - Flame On!

After throwing Hera's body and head up the mountain, Horus decided to leave, but not before beheading all of the horses.

'Can't have that now can we?'

Horus exits out of midair a few miles from Wakanda.

Though he could have just teleported much closer, he decided flying in with style was a great way to increase the level of acceptance the citizens of Wakanda have for him.

Especially after the state he'd left most of the ones training on the field that day.

Though they now know he's the "avatar" of Bast, they still hold a little resentment toward him.

"FLAME ON!" Horus says as he activates his transformation.

Horus's body turns ablaze. His manly features were not lost due to his combusted form.

'This form is too hot. They'd suffocate to death due to the extreme heat and hot air. And if I get too close…'

Doing the same thing he'd done when fighting Hercules, Horus reigns in his fiery aura with the Expanse authority.

However, this time, he separates the space from the outside world so that none of the heat escapes.

Seeing as this form was good, Horus flies around for a bit.

'Alright, show time!'

Horus's body goes full supernova as he flies straight into Wakandan airspace at a steady pace.

In a matter of about five minutes, a loud sustained sound similar to a 747 commercial plane could be heard by all Wakandans.

***

In the throne room, Bashenga and the elders were discussing some matters he'd just received from Bast earlier that night when they began to pick up on a sound.

It gets so loud that the vibrations begin to shake the entire place.

"My king, are we under attack? Is it an earthquake," an elder asks.

"I do not know. I'll go and see who dares to attack the city of my goddess."

Saying that, Bashenga takes the spear next to his throne and proceeds to walk out of the throne room, a few Dora Milaje following behind him.

When they arrive outside, the sight before them leaves their brains short-circuited.

Right above the Wakandan airspace, a giant wormhole-like tear in space appeared right overhead.

"This— My king, what is this celestial phenomena? Why has it appeared?" An elder says to Bashenga with apprehension and fear on his face.

"I do not know. However, we will prepare to fight," Bashenga responds to the elder.

"WAKANDA, PREPARE FOR BATTLE!!"

Many of the Wakandans who were on duty as soldiers began to run and rally with the rest of the soldiers.

The Dora Milaje were already there with Bashenga so they did not need to link with their sisters.

A sudden rumble shakes the ground underneath them. Then, gusts of wind blow as the tear in space starts to brighten and expand.

Eight bright, white spider legs spread on the edges of the tear and a massive 100-foot spider emerges from the tear. It then crawls atop the tear as though it was standing on a ceiling.

After the spider, several animals quickly emerge as well.

Lion

Gorilla

Crocodile

Rhinoceros

Hyena

Spider

And lastly, a panther who stood in the middle of all the gigantic white figures.

These figures just floated there in the air, unmoving.

Upon realizing what those figures represent, Bashenga and the elders immediately kneel and acknowledge this event.

Seeing their king and elders bowing, the rest of the people bow as well.

"Dumisani oothixo baseYiputa. Usibabalile, thina bakhonzi bakho, ngokubona ukoyikeka kobungangamsha bakho. Dumisa, dumisa, Bastet, uthixokazi wethu."

{A/N: In the comics, Wakandans have like three languages but I'll just have them speak Xhosa like in the MCU.}

The words Bashenga spoke translated to: "O' praise the Gods of Egypt. You have graced us, your servants, with a glimpse of your terrifying power and majesty. Praise, praise, Bastet, our goddess."

They say these words in unison as if they were linked through a hive mind.

Once they shouted those words, a loud panther roar resounded throughout the entire area of Central Africa.

The panther takes a step forward and speaks, "Mhm, wenze kakuhle. I-avatar yam iya kuyiguqula iWakanda. I-Amunet inikwa elona gunya liphezulu xa iseWakanda. Uphakamile nangaphezu kwakho, qhawe lam elithandekayo, Kumkani uBashenga. Owu, nanko esiza..."

"Mhm, you did well. My avatar will change Wakanda. Amunet is given the highest power when in Wakanda. He is even higher than you, my dear hero, King Bashenga. Oh, here he comes..."

Bashenga doesn't particularly reply but he sinks further into a bow, too overjoyed at hearing his goddess's declaration.

The tear in space— no hole in space as Horus changed its shape during Bast's "declaration"— turned as bright as the sun as a huge beam of light descended from it.

The light itself was multicolored and very luminous.

Shortly after the light descended, it began to pulse at fast speeds. With one final pulse, the ground cracks within a 20-foot radius.

The light fades, leaving only Horus in a superhero landing pose.

With his transformation still active, Horus stands.

This simple action caused all present to feel as though they were in the presence of a god.

Well, they were but who's going to tell them?

Not feeling the least bit awkward at seeing everyone bow to him, Horus releases his transformation.

'This is nothing compared to when I was born,' Horus muses to himself.

"Alright, everyone. Arise."

Horus walked over to Bashenga once he had stood up and patted his shoulder.

"Bashenga, in the future, you have to take care of me in the future," Horus states, joking with him.

However, Bashenga's expression was something different.

He had determination written on his face as though he was given the most important mission of his entire life.

"I will not let you down, Avatar Amunet."

Horus nods, seeing the seriousness on his face.

"Hey, this feels weird. Let's brighten the mood. Today is a good day. The gods have graced us mortals with their visages. This calls for a celebration. Tonight, let's honor the gods and our luck for seeing such a sight," Horus loudly declares to the people of Wakanda.

His voice reaches every citizen due to his usage of his expanse authority.

A loud chorus of whoops and shouts rang throughout an entire 2km area.

***

The day passed and the dead-end of night is upon Horus as he inspects the glowing lights of the celebration from a distance.

He never was one for parties. Horus is surprised he lasted that long being there.

During the hours of celebration, Horus got to talk and meet with every citizen of Wakanda. He wasn't the least bit overwhelmed at all due to his superior brain.

Despite having such a brain, Horus was just not prepared for the onrush of women and teenage girls clambering to get a piece of the new him.

With most of his clothes burned, Connor had to practically teleport away to go and change into more appropriate clothing before he could be captured by the many women thirsting after him.

Especially Naja. That girl looked at Horus as though she would eat him alive if he wasn't so strong.

Despite her being an adult in Wakanda, she is still a kid in Horus's eyes, he would not accept her drunken lust.,

Horus takes this time to see what exactly has changed about him.

Eyes of Horus-

1. The Left Eye of Truth can see the essence of truth of all things. Nothing of truth is out of your reach except those two ranks above your life presence.

2. The Right Eye of Continuity pierces the veil of the higher and lower planes of existence and dimensions. The host is able to travel back through time and space to a certain point. The host is also able to peer into the veil of other realities and predict an opponent's possible future movements. While in other universes and dimensions, the hosts abilities and authorities will not conform to the laws of that universe unless he chooses to.

Flight

Divine Sense- Through the intervention of ????, your soul has been upgraded to match that of a god in the universe you reincarnated into. With the steady use of manipulating your soul, you have acquired the ability to see through the physical body and into the metaphysical plane. Also has a 360° view of your surroundings up to 2000 miles.

Telepathy- can read, project, communicate, and alter the minds of lesser beings. The range is equal to Divine Sense.

Telekineses- can manipulate internal and external objects or beings using the host's brain.

Mutation- can mutate objects and people in whatever way the host sees fit. When at full mastery, can create entirely new beings.

Transformations:

Falcon Form

Nova Overlock- Through the use of overcharging the host's body with solar energy, the extra energy begins to seep from the host's pores causing the host to become aflame. However, the fire doesn't burn the host, it empowers him. With a plasma-like body, the host can emit solar blasts several times hotter than the sun. This also gives the host a 2x multiplier.

Ultimates:

Divine Purification- Ultimate version of Daybreak. The current version allows for the host's authority, Incandescent Luminosity, to expand into a dense ball of energy, light, and soul power to deliver a devastating physical and spiritual blow to any foe equal to or weaker than the host.

Final Prominence- An Ultimate inspired by Fire God Escanor.

Stellar Incubation- An Ultimate created by fusing the Expanse authority and the Incandescent Luminosity authority. Host is able to make a black hole capable of not only drawing in anything but also destroying anything in its radius with the temperature of two suns.

Note: Use all ultimates with caution as they cause devastating damage to large portions of land. Affected land will be nigh impossible to fix without the use of strong power.

==================

'Hm, everything seems to add up. 4 teratons would allow me to destroy a small country such as the future San Marino. But, these new innate abilities… are quite useful. I guess my soul and body are telling me I am now mature enough to use these.'

Horus makes it his plan to train the Eyes of a Horus skill to the max. He doesn't even need the Space Gem for his travels into other multiverses.

However, it would be more beneficial to acquire that as it would be a good marker to locate other gems in the rest of the multiverse.

His plans to conquer the multiverse would have to be done one step at a time.

With powers such as the Phoenix Force, Horus would not stand a chance.

Putting those thoughts aside, Horus decides to sleep and explore his new abilities.

'I guess it's time to enter my…

Closed-door cultivation.'
