The moment she was born, she was destined to go to the underworld and become the manager of the underworld with only cold, and she would never be able to leave the underworld again.

This is the only task and duty that Ereshkigal has been given.

Although it is very unfair, Ereshkigal did not feel sorry for himself, but shouldered the mission of managing the underworld alone, and it has remained the same for thousands of years.

But, in his spare time, there is one thing Ereshkigal has tried many times...

That is to make flowers bloom in this desolate underworld.

But even if it took thousands of years, Ereshkigal did not succeed, let alone flowers, not even seeds sprouted.

It is natural that in the cold underworld where there is not a single bit of sunlight, there are no conditions for a seed to germinate.

"There's no need to feel sorry for it."

"The underworld is a barren land, not because you are incompetent."

A certain gazelle transformed by Dumuz always said this to Ereshkigal.

But Ereshkigal could only stare at the sky while holding back tears, and replied stubbornly.

"The underworld doesn't need flowers at all, because those are not necessary at all."

Yes, I don't want flowers!

The girl said to herself bravely in her heart.

because……

It would be pitiful if it really bloomed in this dim and barren land!

In this way, the goddess of the underworld hides her little wishes, and does not expect that what she can only see in her dreams can be realized.

- Flowers bloom in the underworld.

This wish, now through the hands of Annan, has finally been perfectly presented in front of Ereshkigal.

"It was the first time I was praised, and it was the first time I saw flowers blooming in the underworld. The combination of two happy things brought me even more happiness..."

Ereshkigal's red pupils were gleaming with water, sparkling, and his expression was excited. He squatted down regardless of his image, leaned in front of a blooming flower of the other side, and carefully stretched out his hand.

A look that dares to touch but dare not touch, for fear that he is actually dreaming, and accidentally burst the bubble.

This kind of behavior is really cute, it must be full of lethality to some open masters, and it may even shake the position of the main palace of the junior girl.

"How, do you like this gift?"

Annan put away the staff that belonged to Merlin in his hand, threw it back to Avalon, and pointed to the sea of ​​blood red flowers that looked like a fire.

"This is an underworld plant in other mythological systems, and it is the only flower that can grow in the underworld. Huangquan, Wangchuan, and Santu are all blooming with this kind of flower that can attract souls."

"I think, with these other side flowers, you should be able to manage the underworld better."

Listening to Annan's introduction, Ereshkigal lightly poked the ball-like clusters of flowers on the other side, and nodded ecstatically.

"Yes, I like these flowers so much, thank you father!"

Ereshkigal's father screamed very emotionally, obviously completely different from the unscrupulous goddess of Ishtar.

This also made Annan feel extremely comfortable. After all, being called a father by a beautiful girl is always so pleasant...cough.

Noticing that Tiamat suddenly glanced at himself, Annan forcibly pressed down the corners of his mouth that he was about to raise, his face was serious, like an unsmiling old father, nodded indifferently.

"As long as you like it, I will continue to entrust these flowers and the underworld to you, and I will work hard in the future!"

Annan, whose face changed very quickly, ordered Ereshkigal in a serious manner.

He, Annan, the good father of Mesopotamia—

How could he be happy to be called a father by a beautiful girl? He doesn't have a common problem with this kind of man, absolutely not!

Seeing that Annan's whole body revealed an awe-inspiring air, Tiamat tilted his head in confusion, with a big question mark in his pink-purple star pupils.

What happened to your man?Why does it seem like he has become a decent gentleman when he glanced at him?

I don't understand, it really makes my mother head big.

It's not a fever, is it?

Tiamat stretched out his hand to Annan's head with some worry, and touched it every day.

Annan will definitely not say the idea of ​​maintaining his good image in front of Tiamat. After all, he still has to pay attention to his image in front of his wife.

"Father and mother... It's true that they give out dog food when they are free."

Ishtar glanced at Tiamat and Annan who were interacting, and glanced at Gilgamesh beside him. Then, with the scent of a single dog, he flew and landed on Ereshkigal's shoulders.

"By the way, Ereshkigal, how strong is your girl attribute right now?! You were moved by the flower to be like this."

"Hmph, this is a flower that can bloom in the underworld, you can get everything, and you don't understand how precious this is!"

Ereshkigal has a bad attitude towards Ishtar who is his half body.

"Okay, I don't understand. But you are really hard-mouthed. You are the administrator of the underworld, but you love human beings, but in that case, why did you join the Three Goddess Alliance? Can you be caught? Soul released?"

As the patron saint of Uruk, Ishtar is usually unreliable, but since she has received offerings before, she will still do what she needs to do.

"Hahaha, Ishtar, do you guys occasionally do something decent!"

Gilgamesh, who had been watching from beginning to end, who was fishing the whole way, also came out to brush his presence.

The main reason is that the previous battle was considered a father-daughter game. Gilgamesh, an outsider, did not need to intervene, and Annan did not need his assistance.

"Mistress of the underworld, now is the time to liberate this king's soul. By the way, please return the soul that died of weakness."

Gilgamesh's attitude towards Ereshkigal is much better than towards Ishtar.

In the past, Enkidu asked Ereshkigal to help Gilgamesh find the musical instrument, so Gilgamesh treated Ereshkigal with courtesy.

After that, Enkidu's body was entrusted to Ereshkigal.

"Ah, I don't need you to tell me to do this kind of thing. After all, I lost very badly this time, and my father and mother are here."

Talking about business, Ereshkigal reluctantly looked away from the beautiful sea of ​​flowers, then glanced at Annan and Tiamat, and sighed long.

"I will honestly tell everything I know."

Chapter 130 The Cruel Love of the Goddess

"I am the goddess of death, embracing death, accepting death, this is my divinity."

In the temple of the underworld where the sea of ​​flowers on the other side was blooming, Annan and his party quietly listened to what Ereshkigal said.

"For a god like me, the ones who have the most intersection with me are not great gods, nor powerful heroes... but those fragile and ordinary humans."

"I have witnessed the death of countless human beings. Perhaps, for human beings, death is a very terrifying thing, but for me, death is worthy of respect and an existence that must be guarded."

"If that's the case, how could I not love the mortal human being?"

Ereshkigal looked at the faint blue soul fires in the spear sill, and said seriously.

God loves the world because God really loves the world.

Even though she is hated by everyone as the goddess of fear and death, Ereshkigal still loves humans.

The love of God, which is only given to believers, is truly inferior.

"Humans who have suffered grief and pain during their lifetime, at least after death, the silence of the underworld can give them peace."

Ereshkigal said with a sigh, and then her mood changed, and her ruby-clear pupils were faintly resentful.

"Until... I learned of the impending destruction of human history!"

"In the case of human beings being burned, all human beings will disappear from the ground, not only life, but even souls will be used as fuel. This kind of thing is unbearable for me!"

She is the mistress of the underworld and the steward of death.

Ereshkigal accepts death, loves it, and respects it.

As the goddess entrusted with the management of the soul after death, she cannot tolerate the deprivation of peace after death, and the soul turns into fuel for the black hand behind the scenes.

"I'm angry, but I can't change anything, because as the cornerstone of the underworld, I can't leave the underworld and can only manage the undead here."

"That's why I decided that instead of letting human beings be so brutally killed that even their souls after death are turned into fuel, it would be better for me to endow human beings with eternal sleep without pain, and bring all human souls to the underworld for protection. "

This is the goddess of the underworld who loves human beings, and the only way to protect human beings.

and so……

Even if no one understands her.

Even if thousands of souls in the underworld resent her.

Ereshkigal will also guard this silence that belongs to death, so that it will not be tainted by any existence.

This is her persistence as the goddess of the underworld, and it is her dignity.

"That's why you joined the Three Goddess Alliance. The other two goddesses probably have the same idea as you..."

An Nan quietly listened to Ereshkigal's heart and nodded thoughtfully.

This singularity of the Three Goddess Alliance, said that it was a competition to destroy human beings first, but in fact it was compared to who could save human beings.

So, the goddesses are all old and arrogant.

No matter which goddess she is, she has her own persistent love.

This love may be distorted, it may be cruel, or it may not be understood...

But no matter what, they will regard their love as the biggest attachment in their life and stick to it to the end.

A typical example is Ishtar, who, for his own love, ravaged the earth and brought disasters, but this is exactly what Ishtar insists on.

Even Tiamat does...

As the mother of all things and the goddess of the earth, she also insists on her own maternal love and fraternity for all living beings.

And Annan paid a great deal of effort to finally let the private love he longed to possess overwhelm Tiamat's fraternity, and successfully conquered it.

only……

As the person who gave birth to love for Tiamat, Tiamat is absolutely single-minded towards Annan and will never regret it.

But if Annan dares to be half-hearted, the one waiting for him is definitely Tiamat, who is completely blackened with a hatchet.

This is the love of the goddess, cruel and single.
