In Type-Moon, it all starts with adopting Sakura.

Nitocris nodded and said, "Lord Lovi's seed and blood have successfully grown flowers in the Underworld. Ellie loves these flowers, so she always secretly picks them to decorate herself. This time, it just so happens that my mirror caught her doing it. However, it seems that she is a little shy about this hobby."

"..."

After glancing at Ereshkigal rolling on the ground, the group didn't say much and went straight to the topic.

"Let's not talk about the flowers for now. Master, Nitocris, and Ereshkigal, are you aware of the current situation?" Rowe asked.

"Of course, my Master. The outside world has changed so much. If I, as the Queen of Warriors, couldn't even notice these things, I would be a complete failure."

Scáthach said, "However, this development is indeed somewhat unexpected. It seems that Tiamat's power is stronger than expected, isn't it?"

"That's right, the intensity is indeed excessive, and it's far too troublesome."

Looking at Scáthach and Nitocris, Rowe thought for a moment and then asked, "How are things over there? Have you been affected? Master, when did you go to the Underworld?"

“We’re fine here, Lord Lowe,”

Nito immediately replied, "The appearance of Rahmu was foreshadowed. With prior preparation, although we were overwhelmed by the sheer number of them, fortunately there were no major casualties. Ms. Scáthach returned for some reason."

"What's the reason? Is it related to the matter that you specifically contacted us about?"

Luo Wei asked, "Goddess Ellie, you've specifically contacted us now, surely not just for idle chatter?"

"Ah...yes, that's right! I have something very important to tell you, it's that, that—"

Ereshkigal was unsure how to explain, but Scáthach finally sighed helplessly and said, "Let me explain. The purpose of the contact is quite simple, and that's why I returned to the Underworld. In short, I'm here to fulfill my promise to Gilgamesh."

"The promise made to Gilgamesh?"

Upon hearing this news, Luo Wei was stunned; clearly, this was information he was unaware of.

"Hmph, what are you surprised about, you mongrel?"

Upon hearing this, Gilgamesh on the throne merely sneered and then said, "I am a king, and naturally I cannot place all my hopes on you. I must have a backup plan, which is precisely what the second option is about."

"plan?"

"Yes, that guy did die from overwork when he went down to the underworld, but he didn't resist; he came down with a purpose."

Scáthach explained, "It was around that time that he asked me to do some things."

At this moment, Ereshkigal spoke up as well: "This guy's goal is to investigate the authority of the Underworld, am I right?"

"Yes, that's right."

Hearing their words, Gilgamesh did not deny it at all, nodded, and continued, "Although I was indeed startled, there are some guesses about this situation. According to the correct history recorded on one of the Destiny Tablets, the final battle with Tiamat took place in the Underworld, so I prepared a backup plan. Initially, I wanted to use the Underworld to control Tiamat."

"Use the underworld to restrict Tiamat?"

Lovi shook his head at the plan. He didn't think this plan, which was exactly the same as the original plot, would be of any use. After all, the Gate of the Underworld, which he could smash in his fairy form, couldn't possibly restrain Tiamat in this state.

Seeing Luo Wei's expression, Ai Lei immediately became unhappy. She sat up from the ground, looking at Luo Wei with some displeasure, and asked him if he was underestimating the Underworld. The damage she suffered earlier was only due to her fairy transformation being a special attack against the gods. The Church of Christ is the natural enemy of the Sumerian pantheon. If it were a battle of raw power, she would never lose.

However, Luo Wei remained noncommittal about her words. In his eyes, it was better to believe in the Temple of Time than in the Underworld.

"Don't worry about that. Even if the restrictions of the underworld alone aren't enough, I'm still here."

At this moment, Scáthach smiled and said, "Since the Underworld alone cannot do it, then adding me might double the restriction. Moreover, we don't necessarily need to use the Underworld to defeat her; creating opportunities is enough, isn't it?"

"Master, you mean..."

Upon hearing their story, a glint of light flashed in Luo Wei's eyes.

Chapter 293 All in!

"So—you mean...?"

Hearing the assurances from Scáthach and Ereshkigal rekindled the interest of everyone, including Gilgamesh, who had previously given up hope for the plan.

Although the plan to send Tiamat to the underworld and then seal her away was based on records on the Destiny Tablets, even if it seemed feasible, it was only applicable to the circumstances recorded on the tablets. Future records are not absolute, nor are they immutable; rather, they are constantly changing. The current situation clearly no longer applies to his envisioned future. Others could likely see this as well, but the fact that Scáthach and Ereshkigal could still devise such a plan, knowing this, suggests…

"What do you mean?"

Gilgamesh frowned and asked, "My previous prediction?"

"Isn't this obvious? Since one Mesopotamian underworld can't suppress Tiamat, why not add another one? Don't forget that I am also a special lord of the underworld in Celtic mythology. Under the punishment of dual underworld powers, even Tiamat won't be so easy to deal with, right?"

Scáthach explained, and upon hearing her words, the others present nodded thoughtfully, but a hint of worry still flashed in their eyes.

They could immediately spot many flaws in this plan.

"..."

Seeing everyone's reaction, Scáthach shook her head and continued.

"You can rest assured, of course I know your concerns. Do you think that even the double underworld can't restrain Tiamat for too long? After all, she is a complete Beast, and she is also a creator god. The double underworld is just a limitation. Of course I understand that very well. So we never intended to use this to decide the outcome. The underworld is just a limitation to buy some time. As long as Tiamat's resistance is not too intense, you will have time to implement your plan, right?"

"After all, the original purpose of my plan was only to delay and restrict, not to defeat," she explained.

"You...you have such a trick up your sleeve? Wow, Queen Scáthach!"

Upon hearing this, Mashu and Ritsuka exclaimed in surprise.

"You actually know so much about this?"

Siduri was also somewhat surprised.

“Of course. Although I am known for my warrior prowess, my magic teacher is none other than Odin, the great god of Norse mythology. Even Gilgamesh on the throne may not have studied magic as thoroughly as I have. Given time, I can come up with such a method. However, I must say, I really have to thank the Magic Queen on the other side for helping me to implement this plan. If Ereshkigal were to do it alone, adjusting the mechanisms of the underworld would be too complicated and difficult. But with the help of another assistant who is also a god of the underworld and proficient in magic, things are different.”

Scáthach said casually, then glanced at Nitocris beside her and asked seriously, "Miss Nitocris, would you be interested in becoming a full-fledged Hades God? Do you think you'd be perfect for it? Would you be interested in taking my place?"

"Huh? Become a full-fledged employee? Like Lord Osiris?"

"Yes, that's right."

Scáthach's smile widened, her eyes gleaming with a fox-like smirk as she looked at Nitocris.

"No, it's better not to..."

Nitocris smiled awkwardly. Although Scáthach's words sounded very appealing, becoming the god of the underworld was the greatest dream for every god of the underworld. However, she was not a traditional god of the underworld. Having taken over Anubis's position and become the gatekeeper here, she had seen the extent of poverty of Ereshkigal, the god of the underworld.

Putting aside the fact that she, as an Egyptian goddess, would be struck dead by Ra for working in another pantheon, the mere thought of her going to the underworld to start working overtime would be unbearable, so of course Nito wouldn't agree.

"Is that so? That's a real shame..."

Scáthach still felt a little disappointed that Nitocris had rejected her.

After all, this is a great opportunity to retire.

"That would be possible, but there's still one problem."

Luo Wei nodded. As the one who implemented the plan, he could certainly tell that it was feasible. However, when he thought about Tiamat falling into the underworld, wouldn't that be the same as the original plot? Moreover, he had already transferred all the humans from Mesopotamia into it. If it fell into it again, wouldn't it really have an impact on them?

"Oh, you must be worried about those humans, right?"

Understanding Luo Wei's concerns, Ai Lei offered a direct explanation.

"Don't worry about that. The vastness of the Underworld is beyond your imagination. Even the Underworld is divided into an inner and an outer side. With the addition of the Shadow Kingdom, the size of the Underworld now exceeds your imagination. We only need to make Tiamat fall into the Underworld. I have already put those humans into my courtyard to sleep. As long as the Underworld is not destroyed, it will not affect them. And if we really lose, it will be useless no matter where we hide. This is the only way we can fight."

After hearing her words, especially after learning that the humans had been properly taken care of, Rowe breathed a sigh of relief. His biggest worry had been resolved at that moment. He then looked at Ereshkigal and thanked her, saying, "Thank you for your help, Ereshkigal. I'm glad you're on our side."

"Ah? Is that so... But I'm not on your side. I just don't want to owe you a favor. Your actions of destroying the Underworld and defiling me are not something that can be easily forgotten!"

Ereshkigal said.

She was referring to how Rowe obtained the seeds of the Avalon flower from Merlin and Mary, and then used his own blood to cultivate them, turning her Underworld Garden into a flower field in the shortest possible time.

Although at first, Lovi's actions of turning into fairies and rubbing the power of the underworld into the ground caused the atmosphere between them to be extremely bad, Nitocris and Scáthach mediated, and with the fact that she and Lovi had gotten to know each other better through their previous exchanges, giving some gifts and sincerely apologizing made things better.

Of course, what's even more important is—

“As the goddess of Mesopotamia, I must take responsibility in this situation. I can’t let a foreign god do the work while I, the native god, stand by and watch.”

"Lord Ereshkigal..."

Upon hearing this, Siduri's eyes filled with emotion, and she even wiped away her tears.

After such a long time, and after being dealt a blow by Ishtar's arbitrary and reckless behavior, she has finally met a reliable goddess in Mesopotamia. Compared to Ishtar, Ereshkigal is simply a breath of fresh air.

"Hmph, don't look at me like that, thinking I can actually do something important. I'm not like that useless Ishtar. Since she lost the Bull of Heaven given to her by the Father God because of her incompetence, then as her sister, I naturally have to take on the corresponding responsibility." Ereshkigal said, "Anyway, let's do our best together."

At this point, Ereshkigal couldn't help but mutter a curse at Ishtar, "—that brainless idiot!"

The solution to Tiamat has now been successfully determined.

They led Tiamat into the underworld, then used their dual powers to restrict her movements.

but……

"How should we guide our mother into the underworld afterward?"

Jin Gu asked the question.

"..."

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent again.

Although according to Ereshkigal and Scáthach, everything can be solved as long as Tiamat is brought into the underworld, the problem is that Tiamat is currently in the Arabian Sea, which is many kilometers away from the underworld. How can they bring Tiamat into the underworld?

Even though Ereshkigal has already moved the Underworld to a distance of several thousand meters from Uruk, Tiamat's battle in the Arabian Sea—Tiamat never left the Arabian Sea and was constantly manipulating the Sea of ​​Life to influence the entire planet's ecology, with her eleven sons also protecting her—made it unnecessary for her to enter the land to fight. Under such circumstances, how could they lure Tiamat into the Underworld?

"There's no other way, I'll go and lure my mother over."

Jin Gu stood up and said.

"..."

Everyone nodded. At this point, this was probably the only way. As Tiamat's child, Kingu might actually have a way to lure her over.

However, Lo Wei rejected her suggestion outright.

The reason is simple: Tiamat has truly become ruthless, showing no mercy even when she sees him on the sea, wielding a beam of starlight and a counter-Genesis attack. Coupled with Rahmu's hostility towards Kingu, it's obvious that Tiamat has absolutely no feelings for Kingu.

In the past, King Gu probably wouldn't have even finished speaking before he was instantly killed by Anti-Genesis.

and so--

"I'll go."

Without hesitation, Luo Wei stepped forward and said, "I am more suitable than Jingu."

"Both my feelings for Tiamat and her desire for my divinity are poison. This is evident from the situation at sea. If I were to go, my success rate would definitely be higher than Kingu's."

"You bastard..."

Upon hearing Luo Wei's words, Jingu wanted to say something, but he couldn't bring himself to say it. After all, Luo Wei was right; the other party did indeed have a higher success rate than him.

However, the thought of luring his mother here alone, and the risks involved, made her somewhat reluctant. After all, his mission should have been to prepare in the Underworld for the final battle with his mother. Adding the task of luring her here would definitely affect Luo Wei's condition, and everyone was now aware of the power his mother possessed; the risks of going alone were self-evident. If Luo Wei were unfortunately captured or sealed by Tiamat, the subsequent battle would be pointless.
