The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

On Mount Ebifu.

Ishtar returned here once again.

After what happened before, she is now more "arrogant" than ever before.

"What is——"

“No one knew I was watching.”

Ishtar said this and raised her hand towards the sky.

Once again, Venus, hanging high in the sky and generally regarded as the symbol of sunrise, shone brightly.

"let me see--"

"What is he doing again?"

Ishtar actually had no way of directly seeing what was happening in Uruk.

but--!

She, who rules over Venus, can understand every inch of Uruk through its shining light.

in other words……

This may be the oldest "spy" in human history.

However, Ishtar herself probably didn't realize this.

"let me see……"

The goddess standing on the mountaintop muttered to herself—for her, this was a moment without having to worry about being discovered.

"Eh?"

"What are you doing?"

Just as Ishtar was wondering at the moment, Uruk, which should have been as calm as usual, was now doing something drastic.

To be more specific...

Are you dealing with felled trees?

Just as Ishtar was wondering at the moment, within the range she saw, the people of Uruk were handling a lot of wood in a calm and orderly manner according to a certain behavior.

The arrow that he shot was completely ignored as air.

"What is that——"

"You don't care at all?!"

Ishtar suddenly felt ignored.

She was a little unhappy.

"Really? Pay close attention to it!"

Having said these words, the goddess who symbolizes the harvest once again mobilized her power, and the light of Venus once again shone on the land of Uruk.

The arrow began to emit violent waves.

"snort--!"

Ishtar folded her arms across her chest and snorted.

"I can't let you ignore the test I set!"

Ishtar's temper soon took its toll on Uruk.

[From the point where the arrow landed, ripples of energy continuously spread out, shaking everything around it.]

【This is something you never expected.】

[This is especially true for ordinary people who never thought they would encounter such a thing.]

[Many people almost fell into Ishtar's momentary rise.]

Fortunately, Enkidu used the power of the earth in time to prevent widespread casualties.

At night, inside the Uruk Palace.

Ian and Enkidu stood on the top of it, looking down at the trees below that were being chopped down by the people with axes, their expressions quite complicated.

"Enkidu, are you sure that by doing this, you can really return the arrow?"

"Don't you trust me?"

Enkidu looked at the man beside him and asked back.

"You... think I'm joking?"

"No." Ian shook his head, but what appeared before his eyes was the consequences caused by the arrow fluctuations today.

His hands clenched into fists involuntarily.

"I just—"

“I hope this kind of thing can happen sooner.”

"Are you angry?" Enkidu took Ian's arm. "Because of what happened today?"

"of course."

Ian acknowledged this statement without hesitation.

For him, it was naturally not something to accept, watching his people being nearly harmed to death by a god he had never met.

"This king wants Him to know that Uruk is not the kind of land that can be easily ravaged by gods."

"..."

Enkidu didn't answer Ian directly.

But she felt his genuine anger and fully understood why it arose.

After thinking for a moment, the girl asked.

"That--"

"I have a plan that can make the plan come true sooner."

"It's just that you may need to help out a little bit."

"..."

"tell me the story."

Ishtar is unaware that you and Enkidu have further improved the plan.

She just wanted to know when the arrow she shot into Uruk would attract your attention.

【so--】

[The moment you came to it, Ishtar showed unprecedented joy.]

On Mount Ebifu.

"That's right——"

"That's right——"

"Go study—"

"Go and study this arrow I left behind to see what kind of test it will bring you."

Ishtar couldn't help but say this as she watched Venus convey the message back to her.

This goddess, who symbolizes the harvest, was completely unaware that at this moment, she was actually not worthy of the title of God.

But having said that...

Seeing Ian and Enkidu circling around the arrows but not taking any action, Ishtar was still very anxious.

"It has come to this, what on earth are they struggling with?"

"besides--"

"Why does that carved thing look so much like a longbow?"

Just like what Ishtar was complaining about at this moment.

The wood that Ian had the people of Uruk carry and collect had been assembled into a giant crossbow after a period of processing.

To be precise, it should be a giant longbow.

It used two long-extinguished altars of gods in Uruk as fulcrums to construct the bow body.

The huge wooden structure cast a black shadow on the ground, making everyone who saw it wonder what kind of strength it took to use this bow and arrow.

As for the bowstring itself, it is made of three layers of dried cowhide mixed together inside and outside, "pieced together" to form a "rope" that is very tough and highly stretchable.

If there is a limit to humankind's thinking about the Divine Crossbow—

Then the bow and arrow in front of you is definitely the embodiment of that limit!

"What are you doing..."

Ishtar sat on a peak somewhere on Mount Abifu, watching over everything in Uruk.

She could feel that Uruk was planning something she had never thought of, but she couldn't figure out what it was.

after all……

They're just human.

No matter what you do, it's only at the human level.

However, what happened next made Ishtar, who had originally been confused, begin to feel a little uneasy.

She only hoped that the people of Uruk, especially the king who led them, would observe the arrow she shot into Uruk with the utmost seriousness.

What Ishtar saw was Ian directing the people to start "dig" it.

This should have made her happy.

but……

Goddess Venus, however, felt something was not right.

Why does it feel wrong?

correct!

That was the king of Uruk, and he showed no intention of investigating to understand the words carved on it.

That was Ishtar, who used her wisdom and talent to transform the language of the gods through 180 changes, and created the "most ancient secret language of mankind".

If the man could figure it out, he would find that the words carved on the arrow were actually a very friendly greeting!

"Hello, I'm Ishtar! Nice to meet you!"

That's right!

He should have used all the treasures and wisdom of Uruk to learn his own secret language!

You know, in order to make him understand that this is a language that has been transformed multiple times, but before that, I laid out enough clues for him to understand it all.

It will take only a year or two, and you will definitely understand it!

But if it was the man who unified the two rivers, perhaps it would only take a month!

That’s not the case at all now!

Ishtar was a little depressed.

Why would he throw away the things I prepared so carefully?

and……

Now it seems that something is wrong.

them……

How are you carrying your arrows?

Ishtar's premonition was indeed correct.

[You are indeed carrying her arrows, and they do have other uses.]
