On the Light Screen, Fujimaru Tachibana and the others met Ramses II again.
This time, they were once again before the throne, but there were more people here to meet Ramses II.
In addition to Fujimaru Tachibana and the others, who had met Ramses II from the start, there was now a group of Hassans as well.
Facing Ramses II, a king of heathens and one erased from history, the Hassans felt rather awkward.
For them, it felt about as uncomfortable as loyal ministers of the Tang Dynasty having to bow their heads and pledge allegiance to Emperor Xiaowen of Northern Wei.

His equivalent in the East would be those human emperors
