That's what I thought too. Considering the situation, I thought he was referring to the MC's "indecisiveness" when it's really just because the MC is scared lmao. But you know, yaoi logic. Because a yakuza boss would personally jerk off a man he's holding hostage for a random reason.

And let's not forget Kubota, the guy that the boss had asked to come to tend to the baby while they were "busy" in the bathroom, forfeited the one job he had and ran away in a panic! (≧∀≦)
Like, dude, you're supposed to get the baby away so he doesn't hear any of that!

I don't have any theories on what they talked about but I think that she's pretending that she still in love with him. I don't really have a theory as to why she's pretending but I think it has something to do with her or hours getting stronger. ╥﹏╥

She's definitely pretending in front of Seth, but do you think Osiris knows that she knows?

I have thoughts of the conversation between Osiris and Isis.

In my imagination, their conversations are filled with lies and tricks, where the goal is to outwit and deceive each other.

Yes, I think Isis told Osiris she was aware of the incident involving Osiris and Seth. Also tells how Seth treated her after Osiris's death. But, I think, Isis lied that she did not care about what happened between Osiris and Seth, nor about Osiris' feelings for Seth.

It was seen from how Osiris was no longer so secretive about his feelings to Seth, even blatantly showing it, as if he didn't care if anyone found out about it.

Then Osiris's attitude of treating Isis like a partner who has more or less the same goal. For example, Osiris gave a flower seed he developed from Seth's seed to sabotage the match between Seth and Horus, to which Isis responded by saying, how romantic, in a sarcastic manner.

Osiris also told Seth several chapters ago about the reason why he did not drag Seth directly to the Duat, because Osiris thought, at least Isis has the right to be able to get her revenge on Seth.

Regarding the theory that Isis was manipulated by Osiris, there is a possibility that it happened. But I hope not.

Indeed, with such conditions, it will reduce the hatred of readers aimed at Isis. But I really hate that possibility. Not because I want Isis to continue to be hated by readers, but for me it is a cheap way taken by an incompetent author to cultivate the characters they creates Just because they doesn't want readers to hate the characters they makes and sadly there are so many who do this .

The concept of Isis being manipulated by Osiris, will only make Isis's character collapse. Being inconsistent. It also takes away the depth and complexity of Isis' character.

So I really hope that theory doesn't happen.

1. I have the opposite assumption. Because I thought that Isis had Horus because of having sex with Osiris.

I don't look down on Isis if she does have sex with Osiris, despite everything that happened before. Because in my eyes, Osiris is like a sinful pleasure for Isis. It is the same as narcotics for an addict. Which one knows bad and destructive, but absolutely cannot stop the longing for it.

There is a comment on the story called Stockholm which is in the onimbus Joshi BL, which I forgot the name of the account, says more or less; No matter how bad a person is, there must be someone who loves them. And no matter how much a person sacrifices them loved ones, it is nothing for those who receive.

It seems to me that this sentence describes the relationship between Osiris and Isis in Ennead well.

-

Regarding Neptyhys, I really wish she had sex with Osiris. No, not because I wanted to call her by a bad name and have reasons to hate her. This is because, if Neptyhys has sex with Osiris, it makes her less manipulative than if she is not having sex.

Say if Neptyhys was under the influence of Hator's mirror, that was why she had sex with Osiris. But if not then isn't the reason Neptyhys is embarrassed because she easily sacrificed her husband and children?

2. Again, I have the opposite opinion.

Osiris did not have the key to destroying Isis as he did to destroy Seth. In Seth's case, there was Neptyhys (and Anubis), but not for Isis.

And if Isis had any doubts about her strength, there was no way Isis would have a plan to drown Egypt. What usually takes one God Major (Isis) and four Minor Gods to do this.

For the reason Isis's strength is weakening, I have the assumption that reviving Osiris was the cause. Because no matter how strong Isis was, she was a Goddess of Magic, not a Goddess of Life and Death. There must have been a huge negative impact on Isis for resurrecting Osiris.

Probably as much as I hate osiris I know he's pretty smart and it would be a bigger surprise (for me at least) if he didn't know. Probably they're both using each other but we aren't that far the figure that out yet ┗( T﹏T )┛

A possible excuse:
"We will never marry, 'coz we'll be married to out 'art'..."
(and then they devote themselves to play 'roles' as a 'couple' for ever after, for the rest of their lives) (๑•ㅂ•)و✧

but wasn?t osiris threatening seth with the jars holding anubis' heart/soul/etc? only reason isis was able to piece osiris together again was because she had his pieces (except for the penis but i think she eventually finds that too).

oh wow this makes so much sense i would have never thought about that

I thought of this because we always see it in Asian fiction, how someone being "too greedy" is never a good thing, and may get you some karma. Like it's a bad idea to "want more beyond what you're given or what you're supposed to have"... I see that phrase over and over and even when a character wants things that are perfectly understandable... That's why I thought, maybe that's also the whole point of Seth's "mistep": the four of them already had Egypt to rule all by themselves, yet he had to go and "become greedy" by asking for even more than that, even in spite of knowing (if he even did?) that this was going against Ra's warning.

(⊙…⊙ ) omg this is so very interesting, ty for sharing your thoughts! lol i should be studying yet here i am reading ennead theories.
in response to your initial question: yes why not, it makes sense to me. but that means this for sure goes WAY deeper than just the hotly commented ~rapist osiris + vengeful isis + madman seth + weak nepthy~ situation we see. this is adding a meta/cosmos level layer added to this story on to top of everything else.

wow, is this intentional on behalf of mojito, or are we just reading way too deep into this? I am not familiar with any of their past works (if they have any others) so I'm not sure if they tend to go deep, or just dip in and out and stay in more mundane things like usual drama + well-drawn smut.

Yeah, I agree it sounds a bit too deep... but Horus' conversation with Anubis, Ra's "weird views" on the whole matter, as well as many other things in the story, would not make sense together, otherwise.

All I see here, all the time, is a Buddhist-like mindset applied to the setting of the Egyptian mythologycal cosmos... (that is, if it doesn't turn out Egyptian mythology is more "Buddhist-like" than we ever imagined)... Mojito makes Horus say even stuff like Seth's and Anubis's attachment to each other is undermining their respective godly powers... That wordly attachments of this kind are typical of humans, (and therefore, gods should reject them). These are all typical Buddhist ideas, and since Buddhism is one of the popular religions in Korea, I can't help but think that this may be where the author's ideas are coming from.

"Buddhist-like mindset applied to the setting of the Egyptian mythologycal cosmos" what a clever thing to come to realize. i absolutely agree, it makes sense for a korean author to regard any myth with their own world viewpoint as baseline. it's like when people nowadays make their own version of the hades & persephone story and make sure to make persephone's consent super explicit (in original hades abducts and rapes her).
