Ishtar was stunned for a moment.

At this point, she finally realized something was wrong.

Even though the battle between her and Moran was so fierce, it did not cause any unrest among the people of Uruk.

Normally, if Ishtar started a war in Uruk, the chief priest in the temple would have taken the lead in leading people to seek refuge.

As a result, the bazaars and temples of Uruk remained quiet.

This leaves only one possibility.

"That's right, this battle never happened in the first place. Everything is just a mirage."

After saying that, a pink glow appeared on Moran's body.

This made Ishtar suddenly realize.

Moran had already activated this illusion as early as when she activated the Sky Boat Ma Anna for battle.

"Don't try to find me. If I don't want you to find me, even the God King Enlil might not be able to find me."

Moran's lower body spread out into petals.

This illusion was learned from a despicable flower magician.

He used a few drops of the blood of principle as a medium to create an exquisite illusion, even deceiving the world itself.

Yes, he played tricks on the gods.

"Ishtar, your charm is undeniable. Unfortunately, your love is not noble, but merely a desire to dominate and to play with you.

Therefore, I will never obey you."

Moran's voice echoed in Ishtar's ears.

Then, a ray of sunlight pierced the darkness.

The light of dawn danced with the petals scattered by the wind, and they melted away together in this space.

"........."

After a brief pause, a creaking sound was heard.

With the subtle sound of teeth grinding, Ishtar's expression almost instantly disappeared. The smile on her lips was truly elegant.

[This is the first time in her life that she has been fooled like this]

The emotions that surged from my heart included anger, unhappiness, shame, and unwillingness, so much so that my chest almost burst.

Finally, she smiled.

【Laughing more happily than ever before】

[I thought I was the hunter who caught the prey, but it turned out that I was the prey that was trapped.]

[This is the biggest reversal tease]

The potential of this human being far exceeds my imagination. I even dare to do something as audacious as deceiving the gods.

[Or to her, the mistress of the earth]

I want to kill him, I want to kill him, I want to kill him, I want to kill him—such crazy thoughts piled up in my heart.

【But, I think he is too interesting】

【I can't bear to kill like this】

[How many more unexpected surprises can he bring to himself? ]

In these increasingly boring times, Ishtar's emotionally ambiguous side feels the need to possess you.

【Want to kill, but also want】

What a hateful and contradictory situation

This is the first time in my life that I've encountered such ambiguity. No one can answer Ishtar's question.

【But, don’t worry about it】

Ishtar's emotions surged uncontrollably, almost to the point of overflowing.

“…Hehe, it won’t end like this…”

Ishtar's smile was devoid of amusement.

As a goddess, it's like this, the first time I got dumped.

There was absolutely no way she could accept that.

His tone was compassionate and profound, yet his inner being was superficial to the extreme. Like a rasp of love and hate, every word he spoke seemed to want to peel away the other person's flesh and blood.

[Now, the goddess still desires one thing]

She wants to get what she doesn't want, and she's willing to bare her fangs for it. She wants to see you filled with regret, to make you lower your proud head that defies the gods.

[Just imagine the arrival of this scene]

The pleasure brought by humiliation

The vague feeling that makes people's heart surge

"——Hehe, I won't let you escape."

Ishtar's slightly flushed expression was like a person who had drunk fine wine, with a tinge of intoxication.

I feel like this is what it’s like to truly be alive.

The goddess thought that in the face of such turbulent emotional fluctuations, the anger of being toyed with was nothing.

[Undoubtedly, this is abnormal and strange thinking]

【But, she is the goddess of Venus】

Human rules do not apply to her, because the essence of gods is inhuman.

Fundamentally, it belongs to a realm that is absolutely incomprehensible to humans, and its spirit and thoughts cannot be compared with those of ordinary people.

Sometimes a symbol of royal power, victory, or destruction

Sometimes it is rain that brings life and harvest.

[Ignoring the arguments of ordinary people, I pursue my own course, transforming nature into a human form and manifesting it in the world——]

This is the goddess Ishtar.

[Strip away the goddess's stunning beauty and reveal her true nature, which is not humane at all, but the very center of madness.]

To please myself, in the name of love

[Continuously ask the things you love to perform a poignant dance, and she will joyfully offer a sweet smile.]

"Huh, that girl is really out of her mind... Looks like she's really going to keep biting me."

"Hey~ I think Lord Moran, you're incredibly popular with women. No matter where you are, you're always pursued by women. Even goddesses are captivated by your charm... Come to think of it, I think I'm the same way?"

Moran and Yingyue have left Uruk.

Due to Ishtar's intervention, he was forced to change his plans and start his travels early.

Ishtar is a goddess favored by the gods.

Therefore, Moran did not want to continue to entangle with her, as there would be no good results regardless of winning or losing.

Fighting this crazy woman, you won't get anything even if you win, and she doesn't seem like the type to admit defeat.

Winning would only make her more entangled.

In the process, it will also attract the attention of the gods, further disrupting Moran's journey through the Age of Gods.

As the saying goes, a good man doesn't fight with a shrew.

——Consider all of the above.

Moran made his choice very decisively.

Only a fool would continue to compete with Ishtar.

In this way, he transformed the space into an illusion space and staged a trick to escape.

Even gods can be easily toyed with in the palm of your hand.

"Ishtar, she's a spoiled goddess. Fighting this guy to the end will do nothing but harm. I have a feeling that if I continue to have a relationship with this willful goddess, it will definitely cause trouble."

Moran has excellent intuition.

So this is not nonsense.

"Hey, Master Moran, I don't think you have just this feeling about Ishtar, right? Just based on your feelings?"

"Well... putting aside her bad personality, she is indeed a charming woman. If she can change her bad personality, I might consider her a little."

"Humph, you are really a playboy. Now, women who are not goddess-level are not in your eyes."

Yingyue's words were straightforward.

This complaint really made Moran blush, as he has always been very open about his feelings.

Neither deny nor avoid.

"Rather than saying I'm unlucky with women, it's more like I'm doomed to romance... Getting involved with that guy isn't good at all. No wonder my mom in this life is always on guard against thieves, wolves, and Ishtar."

Moran understood Ning Sun's painstaking efforts.

I really relate to you.

Ishtar is unaware of her own evil.

Her self-establishment is built on the sacrifices of those around her. As a god, this is a perfectly natural thought.

[In the end, she is just a princess who loves love]

[As long as Ishtar talks about love, her behavior remains unchanged]

[Then, she is hopeless].

You leave under the farewell of Uruk's morning sun.

Ishtar will not find your trace.

[Yingyue possesses the blood of Hades, the god of the underworld. The divine power bestows upon you the characteristics of death at the level of the divine realm.]

[As long as this powerful blood is activated, the aura of death from Hades will obscure all traces of you. Even if the living see you walking before them, they will not be able to detect your presence.]

Because you are the embodiment of death.

[You are a non-existent thing in the eyes of the living, as ethereal as air. Only those who can watch death or have unique powers can possibly glimpse your existence.]

[Ishtar, who once suffered trauma in the underworld]

Even if she were to sense your presence, she'd likely turn away and ignore it in a split second. Anything related to the underworld is, in her opinion, absolutely forbidden.

Therefore, Ishtar cannot perceive it.

[Plus, you relied on the divine blood legacy bestowed by Hades to successfully conceal the secret even from the eyes of the great god Zeus.]

[Few among the Sumerian gods can detect your footprints]

If you hadn't taken the initiative to reveal yourself, even the gods would have had a hard time finding you.

"Well, Lord Moran, your father in this life seemed to care about you quite a bit. Is it okay for him to just leave without saying a word?"

Moran stood on the high slope of the plain.

Listening to Yingyue's words, he turned his head and looked at the city of Uruk in the distance, which was already the size of a finger.

"I left a message there. He can see it.

If he knew this was related to Ishtar, he would probably just tell me to run away from the city. My father, he spent hundreds of years fighting in Mesopotamia as a servant of that stupid goddess. No one knows Ishtar's character better than him.

Moran was not concerned about Lugalbanda.
