This time, however, Mary didn't act silly. She held Lowe's head, looked at the moon together, and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, the moonlight is really beautiful tonight..."
"Hmm, the wind is quite noisy today."
Meryl: "..."
"You idiot, can't you say something romantic? The atmosphere's already this good, can't you just make an effort to win me over?"
Just as Mary couldn't help but complain about Rowe's words, she suddenly heard a steady breathing sound coming from her arms.
She sighed as she looked at Rowe's sleeping face, and could only sit quietly in the moonlight watching him. This time, Mary didn't act silly as usual, but just quietly kept him company.
For a dream demon like her who loves change and mischief, this should have been a very boring thing, but for some reason, she felt a joy she had never felt before.
"Oh dear, what a nemesis! I've been shrewd all my life, yet I've fallen for your tricks."
She pressed her forehead against Luo Wei's, and then they gently closed their jewel-like eyes together.
"However, you will always be mine..."
"No matter what happens to the world, even if it's destroyed, I will have you."
My mind is filled with countless thoughts, yet the moon sets as usual and the sun rises as usual.
A new day has begun as usual.
Lowe and Mary slept on the rooftop all night, and Lowe didn't open his eyes until dawn, when he received a message from Mary.
Good morning, darling.
"Good morning, Mary."
After realizing it was dawn, he and Meryl went downstairs together. However, because of what they had said to each other the night before, Meryl had become more unbounded than before. She insisted that Rowe carry her downstairs, saying that her legs were numb from being used as a pillow and she couldn't get downstairs without being carried.
There was nothing Luo Wei could do about it, so he could only carry her downstairs to repay the favor of having her as his lap pillow for half the night.
When they came downstairs, Ushiwakamaru, Leonidas, and the others who had been drinking heavily there the night before had already left.
Clearly, those summoned by Gilgamesh to serve as the bulwark of this era would not easily abandon their posts.
Anna tidied the table, and then she saw a scene that would shock her for a hundred years: Rowe was holding Mary, so much so that she rubbed her eyes as if she hadn't woken up yet.
"Envious, Anna? I told you, taking down Rowe was a piece of cake under my fierce offensive." Mary blinked, as if showing off her victory.
Anna: "You big idiot."
"Alright. You can get down now."
Luo Wei expressionlessly placed her directly on the chair, then prepared to go out to find something to eat. Just then, another person appeared at the door.
"Oh? It seems that Ushiwakamaru and Leonidas were already here last night. And you were so thirsty that you even went after a nightmare? You really don't discriminate between meat and vegetables, you mongrel."
His voice was arrogant and high-pitched, like a big monkey carrying a pineapple on its head. You could tell at a glance that King Gigi had escaped from the set of "Boonie Bears".
Lovi turned around and looked towards the doorway, where he saw Gilgamesh standing with his arms crossed, looking at him.
"Hey, Gilgamesh, what brings you here?" Merry turned her head and looked at him with some surprise.
"Isn't this only natural? Dealing with politics is also about dealing with human evil, and solving human evil is the ultimate goal. I, the king, am not as useless as some guy who can't even fix a roof properly," Gilgamesh snorted.
Luo Wei: "Are you looking for a beating again, King Gigi? If you're just here to cause trouble, I'll definitely give you what you want today. But now's not the time to beat you up. What kind of plan have you found? And have you finished the things I entrusted to you?"
"Hmph, in the end, won't you still have to come begging to me like a scoundrel? I'm too lazy to argue with you. Your three lovers are already settled, and as for how to deal with those two evil humans, after a night of deep thought, the answer is now within reach. My plan is—"
Gilgamesh narrowed his eyes slightly, then looked at Lovi and said, "—We must use human evil to defeat human evil!!"

Come on, hang the book.
"Service Club? You think you can get into the band's vortex?!"
Waking up to find herself transported to Japan, she had a perfect start but her life turned sour due to the death of her parents. Helpless, Ichinose Asaba had no choice but to fight against life and refused the adoption request from her childhood friend, the Ichinose Soseki family.
He eventually found his first home, SPACE, during junior high school. He thought he could live a stable life there, but his good fortune didn't last long. SPACE closed down for some reason, so he had to leave. After entering the third year of junior high school, he was invited to join Crychic.
In the band, he met many friends and reunited with his childhood friend, Suze, who had changed her surname to Nagasaki. He regarded the band as his second home and gave everything for it.
But fate played a cruel trick on him, and on a rainy night, everything he cherished vanished into thin air.
Chapter 237 Slaying the False Emperor!
"You mean—use human evil to defeat human evil?"
Upon hearing that Gilgamesh had spent an entire night devising a solution that left everyone bewildered, Luo Wei frowned. Hearing this, he instinctively recalled the classic saying of a famous archmage from another world, a righteous wizard—"Use magic to defeat magic."
But when others said this, it all sounded perfectly reasonable, and something about the current situation just felt off. So he looked at Gilgamesh suspiciously and asked, "You don't mean that Goetia will also come to this singularity to launch an attack, so we need to borrow Tiamat's power to deal with him, and have a battle between the Beast of Return and the Beast of Mercy above Mesopotamia?"
"—"
Gilgamesh remained silent, only nodding slightly.
“If that’s the case, then Goetia’s involvement is indeed a headache. Although without the Temple of Time, Goetia’s immortality won’t be absolute, the output of the Beast of Mercy is still a problem. After all, you know about the light band above your head…” Rowe pointed to the huge arc of light that could be clearly seen in the sky above each singularity and said calmly, “I don’t think Tiamat can fight Goetia head-on.”
Although he was also puzzled, why was Goetia here at this crucial moment instead of preparing for the burning of humanity at the Temple of Time or waiting for Chaldea to pass away? Even if he had indeed fooled Goetia before, would he really abandon his great cause of a thousand years just to come and find him?
Or……
Is there infighting among the Demon Pillars? Disagreements have caused the Burning of Humanity to go awry?
Luo Wei began to seriously consider it, but quickly dismissed the idea. After all, those Demon Pillars had been villains from the start, and given their behavior and thousands of years of friendship, it seemed unlikely they would have internal strife.
So, did Goetia come in person this time because he has become cautious and is prepared to completely eliminate the hidden risks?
Where exactly did this cautious Gethia come from?
How can he be even more of a phantom god than the serious Gigi King during the Fourth World War?
If anyone else had said this, Luo Wei certainly wouldn't have believed it today, but since King Gigi, who has the ability to see a thousand miles, was so certain, he naturally had no reason to deny it.
With Goetia coming, this singularity has gone from having one beast to having two, and the difficulty involved can no longer be described simply as skyrocketing.
Let's set aside the almost impossible question of whether Tiamat can help fight Goetia. Even if they were to fight, and even if Goetia couldn't break Tiamat's immortality, the celestial bands of light were no pushovers, and Tiamat was currently in a self-sealed state. Therefore, Love remained skeptical of this conclusion.
"You seem to have far too little faith in our Sumerian civilization's creator mother, the master of the Origin Sea, don't you? You mongrel! Hmph, in the end, with your meager wisdom, you can only make such a guess. Foolish!" Gilgamesh crossed his arms and looked at Lovi with disdain. For him, such an opportunity to belittle Lovi was not to be easily let go.
"You really deserve a beating..." Hearing this, although Luo Wei felt he deserved a beating, he wasn't angry. Instead, he looked at Gilgamesh and asked, "So, what good ideas do you have? Tell me specifically what to do?"
"Is there even a question? Of course, it's about completely removing the seal on the Primordial Mother, allowing her to fight the Beast of Mercy in her full form," Gilgamesh said without batting an eye.
Luo Wei was taken aback by his suggestion, staring blankly at Gilgamesh before asking, "You mean to completely remove Tiamat's seal, allowing her to return to the earth in her 100% condition?"
“That’s right, exactly! If the Mother of Creation is sealed away to the point where she can only output a small amount of energy, it would indeed be difficult for her to withstand the culprit who caused this disaster. However, if Tiamat can return in her full form, dealing with a Beast of Mercy who is greatly weakened when she leaves the Temple of Time is not entirely impossible. So what we need to do is to completely release Tiamat and let her help us fight Goetia!”
Gilgamesh confidently stated that this plan was the result of his careful consideration. While there were indeed risks involved, compared to waiting to die, such risks were within the acceptable range for humanity and him. A plan with absolute certainty is impossible; humanity is currently gambling, and gambling with the future of human reason itself.
"King Gigi, are you thinking straight...?"
After listening to his words, Luo Wei frowned and said, "But have you thought about how to help Tiamat completely break the seal? And after she is completely broken, will she really not be controlled by her own impulse to 'return' and then destroy the entire world with Goetia?"
"Hmph, you are truly foolish! I am not that incompetent fool like Ishtar. How could such a crucial plan have such a flaw? Based on my continuous research on Tiamat, I can now confirm that the only thing needed to unseal Tiamat is a sufficiently large amount of magic power to release her seal. And the magic power source that meets this requirement happens to exist in this singularity. For example, I happen to have one on hand."
"Kid, catch this."
As he spoke, Gilgamesh reached into the golden ripples behind him and pulled out a golden cup, which he then tossed to Lovi, who caught it steadily.
"The Holy Grail..."
Upon seeing this familiar shape, Lovi immediately understood what it was and also grasped Gilgamesh's plan.
The essence of this plan is very simple—feed Tiamat the Holy Grail.
Is the principle that she is to use external magic to inject into her body to completely break her seal and achieve a 100% descent?
While it sounds feasible, one Holy Grail isn't enough, so...
"...Jin Gu".
Luo Wei immediately thought of the green figure he had once beaten to tears; she also possessed a Holy Grail.
However, there were only two Holy Grails, which were still not enough to fill Tiamat's enormous body.
“I know what you’re thinking. One or two Holy Grails are indeed a drop in the ocean for Tiamat. To completely break the seal on her and the shackles placed on her by the Sumerian gods, we need many more Holy Grails. I was also very troubled by this before, after all, the Holy Grails are not some roadside weeds. Even if I had a way to produce them, it’s definitely too late now. But thanks to someone, the Demon King has unexpectedly paid attention to this singularity, resulting in an absurdly large number of Holy Grails in this singularity. This has given us an important opportunity to realize this plan.”
As he explained, Gilgamesh raised four fingers and said loudly, "The Beast Goddess has one, that imposter who possessed Enkidu's body; the Goddess of Death has one; the Sun Goddess also has one; and finally, that good-for-nothing Ishtar has a Demon King's Holy Grail in her hand; plus my Uruk Holy Grail, that makes a total of five Holy Grails, just enough to meet the requirements for completing the goal."
"I will throw all five Holy Grails into the water at the same time, using them to undo all the evil spirits on her body and as a source of magic to restore her to her peak. Then, with Marduk's battle axe tearing open the entrance to the imaginary space, and finally destroying the entire space with my Ea, Tiamat will be able to achieve 100% realization."
"I see..."
Lovi nodded. If there were five Holy Grails, plus Marduk's axe tearing through space, then Tiamat's complete return was indeed not impossible.
only--
"So how do you plan to solve the problem of Tiamat not attacking the earth?"
After hearing Gilgamesh's plan to liberate Tiamat, this became his biggest question.
It would be ideal if they could fight alongside Tiamat, but the question is how they could achieve that ideal situation.
Tiamat is Tiamat, and the Beast of Return is the Beast of Return; the two should never be confused.
"Well, don't worry, I have my own way... and I already know that you refused to kill Tiamat and wanted to save her. For you, this may indeed be a rare opportunity."
"Do you have a way to help Tiamat?"
Upon hearing Gilgamesh's words, a hint of surprise flashed in Lovi's eyes.
"Of course...you'll understand when the time comes."
Gilgamesh gave Lovi a meaningful look, then glanced at Meli behind him. He didn't reveal his full plan, keeping it a secret, and then told Lovi to follow his instructions.
Knowing that King Gigi was a god of war in unfavorable situations, and that he would never joke about such a thing, Luo Wei nodded and stopped asking questions. In any case, King Gigi would explain things clearly in due time.
He still has great faith in King Gigi's reliability.
“I understand, King Gigi.” Rowe nodded and then said, “Then, I will follow your command this time.”
"Hahahaha! You mongrel, have you finally submitted to my wisdom? You understand the difference between us now, don't you? In that case, why don't you bow your head and thank me!?"
Luo Wei: "..."
Considering that he had indeed been a great help, Lovi didn't hold it against him this time, allowing King Gigi to be arrogant for a while. Gilgamesh, not hearing that extremely familiar bickering voice, felt inexplicably awkward, and couldn't help but tilt his head and snort coldly, then said, "Boring."
