Accompanied by laughter as sweet as silver bells.

The divine pressure spreading in the atmosphere gradually weakened, and the graceful golden figure walked out, welcomed by the cold air and ghostly fire.

Her long golden hair was shining brightly and she wore a luxurious black crown on her head.

She embodied the pride of a queen and stood there with dignity.

Her figure is slim and slender, reminiscent of the slenderness of a swan, and she also possesses the dignified beauty of a goddess.

"Hehe, the goddess of the underworld, Ereshkigal, makes a grand appearance~!"

Ereshkigal's behavior was regal.

Its charm is unforgettable at first sight.

But Moran knew the effort behind her grace and how long Ereshkigal had practiced to prepare for this moment.

In the past tens of millions of years.

She was waiting for a formal visitor like Moran and was concentrating on practicing such hospitality moves.

Just the small gesture of flicking the cloak at the beginning.

As well as the opening arrangement and lines.

Ereshkigal practiced these techniques privately thousands of times until he was satisfied that there were no problems.

This goddess is much more lovely than people imagine.

You should also be more attentive when dealing with people and things.

"That being said, outsiders are not allowed to stay in the underworld. I don't know how you obtained the power of the underworld of the feudal gods, but this is at least a power that belongs to the kingdom of death.

As the Queen of the Underworld, I am also tolerant, so I will also regard you as a rare guest in the Underworld."

Ereshkigal said with a faint smile.

The tone of voice did not conceal happiness.

[To be honest, this is an exception among exceptions]

Even Ereshkigal, the mistress of the underworld, must abide by the rules of the underworld—this is her oath.

[Generally, the underworld cannot accommodate the living]

Even if she wanted to, she couldn't do such a thing.

The Mistress of the Underworld is responsible for death.

[It is not her responsibility to entertain newcomers. If she chooses to use her power for this purpose, she will only be punished by the oath.]

Therefore, even if Ereshkigal wanted to make friends,

There is no way.

[Plus, no gods wanted to go to the underworld, so her privately honed friendship skills and audience training were useless.]

[Regarding the past gods Dumuzi and Nergal, the former was held hostage, while the latter was looking for trouble.]

She couldn't possibly treat it with a gentle attitude.

【Not to mention making friends】

【However, you are different】

[The power of Hades you possess is highly compatible with the Underworld. Even if Ereshkigal actively invites you, the oath will not automatically activate.]

[This is considered a loophole in the oath]

[It is a very special situation]

It could be said that Ereshkigal was the one who was happy about this special case.

"Haha, actually. I came here uninvited. Ereshkigal, I am honored to be treated so specially by you. Now I see your generosity and kindness.

Then I think about what people say about your cruelty and ruthlessness, and it seems that they are all fallacies and rumors."

Moran spread his hands and said with emotion.

He acted as if he regretted believing the rumors.

"Eh? Do you really think so?!"

Ereshkigal suddenly became excited.

It was like she was so moved that she shed tears. Finally, someone stopped labeling her negatively.

The noble and majestic look was ruined in a second.

[There's no way around it. Ereshkigal has always been plagued by rumors. People see her as a symbol of cruelty, as she controls the underworld.]

The most fundamental reason is the fear of death.

[Because of this, humans continue to add negative connotations to her]

Those who exaggerated the situation barely spoke to her and were just expressing negativity.

【Now I can hear these heartfelt words from your mouth】

[She was like a long-awaited sweet dew]

I'm so glad to meet someone like you who doesn't care about the labels others put on her, but focuses on her true nature.

250【Ereshkigal is the first time】

[That's why she seems so excited.]

Sure enough, those thousands of rehearsals and lines honed over and over again proved to be true! Hmmm…making the first impression is truly the most important thing!

Come on, Ereshkigal!

These words echoed in Ereshkigal's heart.

She tried hard to suppress her excitement.

"Well, if you are the cruel and merciless goddess of the underworld, you would not let me come here, right? So, I think you are a generous and merciful goddess." Moran said.

"Of course! Ahem, but... this isn't entirely my tolerance. You chose to disperse the undead, not destroy them. That's why I plan to treat you as a guest..."

Ereshkigal turned his head away in embarrassment.

Inadvertently, my fingers played with my hair.

Faced with such direct praise from Moran, she felt a little flattered and unable to resist.

No one had ever praised her like this before.

Wow wow wow.....I'm so happy to be praised!

Wait... Ereshkigal... You are a goddess... You have to maintain your goddess demeanor!

Ereshkigal muttered to himself again.

Although she was not used to it, she did not dislike it at all.

"Those rumors about me being cruel and ruthless are nothing more than rumors. I work diligently here every day, not even having time to build a palace. I'm constantly thinking about making life easier for the souls in the underworld..."

Ereshkigal couldn't help but mutter.

It's like a Pandora's box of resentment has been opened.

She unconsciously poured out her grievances to Moran, and what overflowed from her heart was the grievances that had accumulated for millions of years.

It's so pitiful to hear.

“Ahem… However, I am also the mistress of the underworld, and I have long known how ignorant you humans are.

So, I won’t care too much about it.”

Ereshkigal regained her graceful and dignified demeanor.

As if nothing had happened, she turned back into the elegant and majestic mistress of the underworld.

[She still has some ideas about managing her image]

After all, how could the mistress of the underworld keep complaining to someone she just met?

[That's not at all impressive and cool. Instead, it makes people think she's a terrible goddess with a deep sense of resentment and a gloomy personality—]

【Things like this must be stopped! 】

[She was indeed touched by your thoughts at first, but she quickly recovered.]

[Her extremely high self-esteem would not allow her to lose her composure]

[It's so hard to get a customer in front of you, you must maintain this bright and beautiful image]

[No matter what, she is the face of the underworld]

However, Ereshkigal is straightforward and easily reveals his true nature once he gets excited.

She is just trying to restrain herself.

[My heart is still excited]

As someone who holds the memory of this land, you naturally understand this lovely girl's thoughts.

Therefore, you are very gentle.

[Will not expose her superb acting skills at this moment]

"Having said that, you are indeed very courageous. You know, in this underworld, no matter what kind of weapon, what kind of power, what kind of authority, it is nothing but a drop of water in front of me.

Even if the Lord God were to come here, I could turn him into a stone and throw him back onto the surface. Not only humans, but even the gods themselves, cannot defy me.

Because—'—"

Ereshkigal raised his chest proudly.

This is the confidence of the Queen of the Underworld.

"Because, in the underworld, the stronger one becomes weaker. Ereshkigal, you are invincible here."

Moran finished answering first.

He agreed with what Ereshkigal said.

If Moran were to start a war with her here, he wouldn't necessarily gain the upper hand. However, there was a prerequisite.

That is, she has to be in the underworld.

If the Underworld ceased to be the Underworld, then Ereshkigal's invincibility would be useless.

[That's right, your principle blood ring is a poison that corrodes the world]

[Can fundamentally erode the underworld]

[In the underworld, you are at a disadvantage against Ereshkigal, but you don't necessarily have to follow the rules.]

[Of course, you won’t say this out loud]

[There's no need to be so unromantic]

[Showing off or anything like that is something a three-year-old would do. You didn't go to the underworld for that.]

Ereshkigal is a diligent and excellent goddess. You don't think you could become an enemy of such a woman.

[Instead, you still want to help]

"That's right. Because as long as I'm in the underworld, I will use a force more powerful than any god—"

Ereshkigal followed Moran's words.

The next second, she was stunned: "Huh? Wait a minute... How do you know all this!?"

"Well...I have a lot of knowledge about the underworld."

Moran gave a meaningful smile.

He read the memories from the earth veins connected to the underworld, and he knew many things about the underworld.

Even Ereshkigal's privacy.

Moran also knew a little about it.
