Could the answer be in a place like this?
The goddess of the underworld racked her brain but still couldn't find an explanation that was reasonable enough for her to accept.
"what do you want to eat?"
Ian suddenly asked such a question, which made Ereshkigal stunned for a moment.
"What's so delicious about this?"
"What do humans think of food..."
"How about apples?" Ian interrupted Ereshkigal very directly and helped her make a presupposition.
“The apples this season are really good.”
"No, wait a minute!"
"There's no need to wait." Ian looked at Ereshkigal who was trying to stop him. "Don't you want to know the answer sooner?"
"..."
Ian silenced Ereshkigal's curiosity with just one sentence.
After hesitating for a moment, she nodded - that meant she tacitly agreed to Ian's decision.
A few minutes later.
Holding the apple that Ian had picked out with his gold coins, Ereshkigal's throat moved slightly.
Although she was the goddess of the underworld, this was the first time she had seen such a plump and perfect apple.
Could this... be some kind of human creation?!
Ereshkigal thought so, not realizing that it was impossible to grow apples in the underworld.
"Can I eat it?"
The goddess of the underworld asked with a look of delight.
"Okay, I bought it just for you to try."
"Then I'm welcome."
Ereshkigal came up and let out a howl, then showed an expression with starry eyes.
“Isn’t this apple amazing?!”
"Really? Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?"
The goddess of the underworld gnawed on the delicious-looking food with an expression like a little squirrel.
This is not something difficult to understand - the underworld is an unreachable place for humans, and the same is naturally true for the human world with respect to the underworld.
Ereshkigal had only tasted apples a few times, so he naturally thought they were a rare treat.
But at this moment, she heard another question from Ian.
"When I took you there, did you notice how my people viewed you?"
"..."
Ereshkigal realized that this might be a very important question.
She thought about it seriously and then came up with an answer.
"They... didn't seem to notice at all that we were holding hands."
This wasn't just Ereshkigal's imagination.
When she went there, the vendors selling apples simply expressed their respect for him and did not say much about the two's behavior.
"Oh, you are indeed a god."
Ian nodded, indicating that Ereshkigal was right.
"Then have you ever thought about why they... don't care about the hand I hold with you?"
"Are you afraid of being blamed?" Ereshkigal replied.
"No." Ian shook his head. "If they were really going to be blamed, don't you think they should be more afraid?"
"..."
Ereshkigal couldn't deny Ian's words, and she also felt that he didn't seem like the type of person who would suddenly get angry.
"I don't know—just tell me what it is and stop saying those meaningless things."
"..."
"How impatient!" Ian hesitated for a moment, then continued to explain, "Because I once made a promise to them - as the king of Uruk, I will never marry anyone."
"Not now, not ever."
“They trust me so much – so they believe everything I say.”
"This is what this king and you are—"
As Ian spoke, he pulled up the hand he and Ereshkigal were holding.
The man's expression was so serious that it was impossible to imagine that he was holding hands with a woman.
"A reason that won't be considered strange."
"..."
Ereshkigal's face turned even redder.
A few blushes, like roses, appeared on her face.
"You... actually made such a promise to your own people?"
"Do not."
Ian smiled and shook his head.
"This was not originally promised to them, but... someone later suggested that I do so."
"If I think about it carefully, I am indeed not thinking well."
Seeing the man admit his fault so frankly, Ereshkigal gained a deeper understanding of the King of Uruk.
"So that's it..."
"No wonder you didn't care about me at all—"
"Ereshkigal, you sound relieved," Ian said. "I think I shouldn't tell you this."
"There's no such thing—"
Ereshkigal's tone softened slightly.
"But I have to say, if that's the case, you have indeed contributed a lot to your Uruk."
"They trust you so much that they'll believe things that seem so far-fetched."
"I admit everything you did."
"only……"
Thinking back to what Ian had just said, that for some reason, there would be no possibility of any marriage, Ereshkigal's attitude became a little anxious.
She did not forget why she came to Uruk and met the king of Uruk.
"You really won't have anything to do with anyone anymore?"
"..."
"of course."
The answer was not surprising, and one could even say that he had understood it a long time ago.
In this case, Ereshkigal knew that he could only help his sister, so he made one last attempt.
Is this man in front of me really so unbreakable?
"So, if..."
The goddess of the underworld placed the hand of the king of Uruk on a certain part of her body.
That is the best proof of women's superiority.
"Is that someone who is willing to offer her virginity for you?"
927. Ereshkigal's First Time / The Sky Where Meteors Fall (4k)
This was Ereshkigal's last stand.
Since the man in front of me has already expressed that he will never marry anyone else——
Then take the most direct and primitive way to "conquer" him.
That's right.
That is……
A joyful affair between men and women.
To be honest, Ereshkigal's experience with this kind of thing was actually close to zero.
No.
It should be zero.
The reason is very simple: as the goddess in charge of the underworld, it was absolutely impossible for mortals to contact her in the past, so naturally there was no chance of "communication".
As for the ghosts in the underworld, there is no need to mention them.
That is an existence that absolutely obeys oneself. If one wants to find someone who has the courage to look directly at oneself, he will probably have to choose carefully for half a day.
But now it’s different.
If I say something so directly, the man in front of me will have some corresponding reaction no matter how he thinks about it, right?
It's not possible that even something like this would be rejected!
Ereshkigal's vision soon became reality.
After the goddess of the underworld made this request, Ian did not refuse immediately, but asked her a question in return.
"Although asking this may be a little harsh."
"But Ereshkigal, you should know what I just said. Isn't that right?"
"Eh?"
Ereshkigal was stunned for a moment, then nodded very quickly.
"Of course I know! Otherwise, why would I tell you!"
"That……"
Ian took Ereshkigal's hand and continued.
"You come with me."
You brought Ereshkigal to the top of the palace in Uruk.
[Of course you didn't fail to understand everything she just said.]
[It's just that for you, Ereshkigal, the goddess of the underworld, always has some special meaning.]
[She needs to communicate better with other gods.]
night.
The roof of the palace in Uruk.
Ian and Ereshkigal stood here.
The land of Uruk is filled with a warmth that seems to be life.
So even at this time, you can feel that the surroundings are not that cool.
However, Ereshkigal's thoughts were not here.
Looking at the surroundings, she felt a little confused - could it be that the so-called response to temptation only happened in this kind of situation?
