To be king and magician

No matter how hard they struggle, human beings will be wiped out. In this case, take advantage of the time when the underworld of the Age of Gods still exists on the surface, and bring as many human souls as possible to this underworld for protection.

This is the reason why Ereshkigal joined the League of Three Goddesses, because only in this way can the soul be protected in a relatively safe and absolutely reasonable situation.

In fact, Ereshkigal originally planned not to tell anyone. After all, there is no one to communicate with in this underworld. Although she is the goddess of the underworld, she does not have the ability to communicate with souls.

She was already ready to continue to endure not being understood by anyone, and to continue to be alone, anyway, it was the same as what she had done in the past countless years.

However, now, apart from the sudden exception of El Quite, there is another person who understands him.

"You... are really a strange guy as Alquette said."

Ereshkigal sighed after being silent for a while.

"Don't be afraid of things that you should be afraid of—Airquite said that she was the same when she officially met you."

At that time, Alquite was already divided by seventeen. Normal people would run away when they saw it, not to mention getting close. Xia Chuanhu's behavior of taking it back and putting it back together was simply unimaginable. People wonder if his head is broken.

Xia Chuanhu smiled: "Because I already know what kind of people you are, and since I know, then there is no need to be afraid, right? The only thing that creatures fear is the unknown, and once the unknown becomes the known , the sense of fear will be greatly weakened.”

"Hey...you really are a weirdo." Ereshkigal sighed again, "Come back to business, do you want me to lend you strength...to help you fight against Gorgon? I'm sorry, based on the contract of the Three Goddess Alliance, we cannot attack each other, and if we violate it, it will cause great harm to me."

"No, that's not what I meant."

Xia Chuanhu shook his head: "I can handle a goddess of Gorgon's level by myself, not to mention that there is Alquite now, and Uruk's combat power is also sufficient. Now Gorgon It’s no longer enough to be afraid.”

"I hope that the one you can fight against us is the real Goddess of Warcraft who is sleeping in the Persian Gulf—God Tiamat."

"What did you say?!"

Before Ereshkigal could say anything, Ishtar flew out of Xia Chuanhu's clothes: "Mother, she is in... the Persian Gulf now?! This is impossible, mother It's been a long time-"

"I was exiled to the imaginary space, isn't it?" Xia Chuanhu added, "It is true what I said before, but now the god Tiamat has returned from the imaginary space... I think it should be the magic king Do it, he personally sent the Holy Grail to this era, and awakened the god Tiamat."

"But that's not the point. The point is what God Tiamat will do after he wakes up."

In the myth, Tiamat loves her children deeply and condones all the behaviors of the children, but in the end she is abandoned by the children, killed by the children, and exiled by the world that no longer needs her to the imaginary space.

And now, through the collapse of the foundation of humanity and the power of the Holy Grail, she has returned to this side of the world.

At the same time, based on her hatred, hatred, grief, and her instinct to change the earth's ecosystem again, she decided to obey her instinct and began to sweep and destroy human beings.

"Mother wants to destroy humans... It's unbelievable, but it doesn't seem so unbelievable."

Ishtar let out a long sigh.

"So, are you going to stop, no, are you going to defeat mother?"

"Well." Xia Chuanhu nodded, "Leaving aside those old accounts of the age of mythology, I have a hundred disagreements with regard to the destruction of human beings. Similarly, I have a hundred disagreements with regard to the burning of humanity I disagree, so I will do my best to stop Tiamat."

"But how to stop it? That's my mother, she's not at the same level as us in terms of divinity."

Ishtar thinks that she is omnipotent, but even her level as a god is very different from that of Tiamat.

Xia Chuanhu gently touched her head: "Don't worry, the knowledge I got from the parallel world has a way to deal with God Tiamat, for which the power of the goddess Ereshkigal is necessary."

Having said that, Xia Chuanhu reached out to Ereshkigal again: "In summary, can you help us? Goddess Ereshkigal."

"Not yet."

Ereshkigal shook his head: "It may be a bit bad to say this, but——I don't trust you, even if you are Erquette's friend, let alone now [Mother has returned] is only yours. One-sided words do not have any credibility."

"If you want me to help you, please come up with convincing evidence first."

"Hmm... That is to say, as long as God Tiamat really appears, you are willing to help me?"

"You can understand that."

Ereshkigal had concerns, which Xia Chuanhu could understand. After all, he didn't intend to let her trust him completely when they met for the first time, as long as he could communicate with her well.

"I understand, so let's wait until I defeat Gorgon later."

"I'm really confident. Let me remind you that there is more than one Gorgon over there." Ereshkigal reminded, "There is another one over there—"

"Enkidu, or Jingu, right?"

Xia Chuanhu said: "King Gilgamesh has already told me, and he also told me to completely destroy it when I see it... Well, that's what it says in words, but it's actually true. I don't know how."

"But no matter what Gilgamesh thinks, what I want to do will not change."

"—I will indeed bury Enkidu a second time, with his soul."

35. Ishtar's superb butt

After that, Xia Chuanhu continued to talk to Ereshkigal about other things.

For example, things about the souls that are protected by her, for example, things that she doesn't have to bear alone... Although it is the first time they have met each other, but Ellie, Torre Shikigal's only friend in tandem, the two continued to talk quite amicably.

At least not like Quetzalcoatl, who said he wanted to check his strength, but ended up playing all afternoon.

And finally-

"My answer is still the same as before."

"Whether it's asking me to help fight against the mother, or liberating the souls in these cages, or joining hands with Uruk, my answer is to wait until everything you said becomes a reality."

"If the mother really comes, then I will definitely help you, and after everything is over, I will release the soul and return to the earth as promised."

This is Ereshkigal's final bottom line.

The dignity and duty of being a goddess that she has insisted on until now does not allow her to give up halfway because of someone else's words.

Sitting on Xia Chuanhu's shoulder, Ishtar sighed slightly: "You are still the same, isn't it tiring for such a person to bear everything..."

"Don't confuse me with an idiot with gems in his head like you!"

"You—whose brains are full of gems!"

It should be said that they were born to be at odds. The two goddesses just said a word or two and immediately started arguing again.

Not caring about the awkward pair of sisters, Xia Chuanhu looked at Alquite: "In this way, I will have nothing to do when I come to the underworld this time. Next, I am going to return to the earth. Alquite, you want to go up with me." Is it?"

"No, no need~~~"

Alquite shook his head: "Like I said, I want to meet Tiger you alone. If I go back with you, there are too many people on your side, not to mention those two annoying people. Nightmare."

"Besides, I can't leave Ai Lei alone in the underworld!"

Airquite is Ereshkigal's first friend. Although the meeting was full of accidents, Ereshkigal attaches great importance to his only friend, so Airquite doesn't want to let her go right away. in spite of.

"But Tiger, don't worry, if you want to fight that Tiamat in the future, I will rush to you as soon as possible to deal with her with you! After all, that is the situation where only I can help you! "

indeed.

If the opponent is the god Tiamat, the only ones who can confront her head-on are Xia Chuanhu and Alquite. As elves, the two can get support from the planet itself and increase their strength to the point where they can fight against her.

For others...even Satiao Lingyi is not enough.

Xia Chuanhu smiled: "Well, see you soon, and be good here before, and don't cause trouble for Ereshkigal."

"I didn't cause trouble! Tiger, if you talk nonsense like this again, I will be angry!"

"Yes yes yes~~~"

Reaching out his hand to pull back Ishtar who was bickering with Ereshkigal over there, Xia Chuanhu continued: "It's almost time to go back, Ishtar—Goddess Ereshkigal, may I ask you Has Ishtar's power and divinity been returned to her?"

"Oh, yes, almost forgot."

Rather than saying that she almost forgot, it is better to say that Ereshkigal actually completely forgot about it. After all, it was not she who took the initiative to deprive Ishtar of her power and divinity, but Ishtar The manifestation of the myth is a passive situation, and Ereshkigal doesn't care about this kind of thing.

And soon, with the return of divinity and power, Ishtar, who was originally only the size of a palm, suddenly changed back to its original appearance!

However......

Because Xia Chuanhu held it on the palm of his hand before, but after the divinity and power were returned, the situation directly changed to the appearance of Ishtar, who returned to his body, being held by Xia Chuanhu on his ass!

(It feels pretty good——)

The moment Xia Chuanhu had this idea subconsciously in his mind, Ishtar, who was full of shame and indignation, directly clutched his butt and left Xia Chuanhu's hands, turned around and kicked him!

"Snapped!"

Catching the sudden kick, Xia Chuanhu explained with a righteous face: "Although I think I know why you kicked me, this is actually an accident, right?"

"Unexpected situation? Then what happened when you pinched it just now?"

"Oh, that's a habitual behavior of the body, and has nothing to do with my own will."

Wen was raised by those bad women at home. After all, similar situations are repeated every night, and a behavior will become a habit if it is repeated more than [-] times, let alone Xia Chuanhu repeated it for ten years.

It's all become instinctive, well, basically when you put your hand in the corresponding position, it will start to move by itself.

"And why are you reacting so badly? In mythology, you just see a goddess who loves one another. You should have gotten used to this kind of thing long ago, right? I usually see you flying in the sky in that revealing dress, so I don't see you as shy." what?"

"That has nothing to do with this! By the way, you actually looked at me with that kind of eyes? What's in your mind!"

"Before you ask me such a thing, why don't you change your attire first?"

......

Seeing the two people who started to fight each other inexplicably, Ereshkigal asked Alquite with some doubts: "Airquite, what are they..."

"Well, it turns out that Tiger likes this kind of stuff better?"

Alquite was not listening to what Ereshkigal had to say, but was seriously recalling the situation just now.

After debating with Ishtar on their respective ideological issues for a while, Xia Chuanhu sighed heavily: "Ha~~~ Forget it, I won't argue with you, I will go up first."

"Eh?"

"Then Elquit, goddess Ereshkigal, see you later when you fight the god Tiamat, and please give me your advice."

While saying this, a gust of wind rose from Xia Chuanhu's feet and flew into the sky.

Seeing this, Ishtar quickly rose into the air, and flew towards the hole in the underworld that she blasted out.

And while Xia Chuanhu was flying upwards——

"Huh? That's..."

A platform surrounded by a ring of gun cells caught his attention.

It should look like a tomb, but the soil has been dug up, and it looks like a tomb has been stolen.

"What are you looking at?"

Ishtar, who flew to Xia Chuanhu's side, asked, "Is there anything special over there?"
