All Chapters of Queen of the Eternal Nile: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

Outside the palace, the order continued spreading. Soldiers carried the description from city to city for a woman with hair like sunlight and eyes like the sky, a foreign woman and a witch, the most wanted person.The rumors traveled quickly from soldiers to merchants, from merchants to travelers and from travelers to villages.Soon, almost everyone had heard the same description and every time the words were repeated, Lady Maritza's danger grew.Ramose stood near one of the palace windows, staring into the distance with his thoughts returning to the village, to Harun, Zahra, Kasim and Rasyid. Then finally… to Lady Maritza.He closed his eyes. “Please be safe.”Aziel stood beside him and tapped his shoulder, making Ramose open his eyes to see his friend stood beside him and his eyes already looked toward the horizon.“She has the Shadow protecting her.” He told him.Menes joined them with a tight smile.“And as long as Kasim can keep her hidden, they won't find her.”Finally Ramose n

“It's up to you, Lady Maritza.” His answer made me freeze.What?“What do you mean ‘it’s up to me’?” I asked as I frowned in disbelief and confusion.How could it be up to me?After everything that had happened?And after being brought into this world and spending more than two years here?Professor Hasan—or the First Maze, because at this point, I no longer knew what I was supposed to call him—simply smiled.He didn't look surprised by my reaction.“Do you know why you're the chosen one?” He smiles

Kasim stared at me for a moment.It was as though he was deciding whether he should tell me the truth or not and I didn't look away, no, I waited, because whatever he was hiding, I needed to know.Finally, he let out a quiet sigh.“They said Pharaoh Kharef was injured.” He said quietly.My chest tightened when I heard it. “How?”Kasim's expression became grim.“A poisoned spear struck his chest.”The words seemed to hang in the air and I stared at him, unable to speak for a moment.A poisoned spear? Kharef?My mind immediately created an image I never wanted to see: Kharef lying wounded with blood staining his clothes then his powerful body weakened and his hand reaching forward as though he were searching for someone… Searching for me.The image struck me with such force that I almost forgot where I was.It was the same image I had seen in my prophecy dream: Kharef, wounded and alone, reaching out with his hand. And then… the darkness: fire and chaos, Egypt burning beneath the destru

From that moment on, it felt as though I had truly become part of them.Little by little, I began getting to know the people around me.I also learned that the First Mage’s real name was Hasan—the same name he had used while pretending to be an ordinary professor in my world. Somehow, though, I had already become so accustomed to calling him Professor Hasan that I couldn’t bring myself to stop.“Professor Hasan” was simply stuck in my head.Whenever I called him that, the old mage would roll his eyes as though he found it ridiculous, but he always wore a small smile afterward and let it slide.Kasim and the other Shadow Soldiers, meanwhile, began preparing for our journey.

“Lady Maritza.”I was already on my horse when Professor Hasan called my name and then I turned toward him only  to realize he was reaching for the necklace around my neck.My hand immediately went to it.It was the same necklace I had found in my own world—the one I had discovered while learning about Kharef before I ever came to ancient Egypt.I stared at Professor Hasan carefully when something hit me.“Are you the one who gave me this? Back then in my world?” I gasped in realization.A small smile appeared on his face.“Protection stone.” That was all he said.
