It was fine for the others, but Fujimaru Ritsuka was a mortal, so if he wanted to walk this distance honestly, it would take him at least two or three days.

Amber simply used his Qi to lift up everyone along with the carts filled with treasures, and flew them. In just one hour, they arrived at the foot of Mount Abifu. After a short hike, they saw the temple built by Ishtar herself.

Amber had been here once, so she pushed open the door of the temple and walked in with everyone.

Ishtar seemed to know they were coming and had already sat in the main seat, waiting for them.

"What? After attacking the Warcraft Goddess, am I next?"

Although he was sitting in a very dignified posture, he gave people an inexplicably cute feeling of being on pins and needles. Amber couldn't help but smile.

"What's the matter? You've really obeyed the orders of that King of Uruk and are now in cahoots with him, haven't you?!" Seeing her still laughing, Ishtar hammered the armrest of the throne in frustration. "That King of Uruk must be so proud of himself! Even after all his powerful servants were killed, he immediately got a trump card. I'm all too familiar with that mean-spirited look of his!"

"I just came here because I wanted to see you."

Amber interrupted quickly, not expecting Ishtar to be so imaginative.

"If you want to see me...why not just stay here..." Ishtar didn't expect Amber to say that, and said after choking.

"Although it may be disrespectful to interrupt the goddess's greetings, could you please listen to what we have to say first?" Merlin interrupted with a smile.

"If you knew it was disrespectful, you shouldn't have done it in the first place." Ishtar was completely merciless.

"This is really..."

Realizing that he hadn't made a good impression on the other party before, Merlin looked at Ritsuka.

Ritsuka nodded, then lifted the cloth that had been covering the cart behind him.

Ishtar, who was originally planning to say something sarcastic like "It's no use trying to communicate with someone else, you are all Gilgamesh's lackeys", was dazzled by the pile of gems that suddenly illuminated the dark hall.

These... so many gems?

Chapter 26 Ishtar's Dissatisfaction

"These...these gems are..." Ishtar looked at Ritsuka expectantly.

"It's the reward for hiring the goddess Ishtar," Ritsuka said with a smile.

"Reward...reward or something..."

Ishtar suppressed the upward curve of her lips and said, "Talking about employment and reward to the goddess... is a bit..."

"This is just a deposit." Ritsuka didn't give Ishtar a chance to refuse and continued, "After all, fighting alongside the goddess Ishtar is the wish of all the people of Uruk, so these treasures are naturally not enough to pay."

"Deposit...deposit?"

The goddess, whose eyes were already dazzled by the glittering treasure, was suddenly startled.

"Tell her the total amount, Ritsuka." Merlin showed an amused expression.

"Twenty percent of the treasures in the Babylonian treasury are minerals." Ritsuka gestured.

"Two...two percent..."

Ishtar's body began to tremble, but thinking of the goddess's majesty, she suppressed her inner desire and said calmly, "This... the goddess's wrath isn't so easily quelled... By the way, that's the Treasury of Babylon, right? It's what Gilgamesh created for the future... If successful, it will be equivalent to humanity's total assets, an inexhaustible source..."

"That's right." Ritsuka smiled innocently.

"No, no, no... Could that Gilgamesh be so generous?" Ishtar couldn't believe that Gilgamesh, who had always been at odds with her, would be so generous.

"After all, you are considered the city god of Uruk, so it's only natural that we respect you. Besides, our master and the Red Kite Immortal have a good impression of you." Merlin said this partly to remind the other party not to be too dissatisfied, and partly to give the other party a way out.

The condition of the Warcraft Goddess was no secret to servants like them, the Age of Gods. Everyone saw the sword that descended from the clouds and seemed to destroy the world.

In this situation, you won't turn your sword against us when we actively try to please you.

Ishtar didn't realize the subtext, but she did have a good impression of Amber and Ritsuka. When she heard that Merlin, whom she hated, kept praising her, her self-esteem was greatly satisfied.

"Well, since you have tried so hard to invite me, I will let you see the power of the goddess!" Ishtar finally smiled, announcing the completion of Gilgamesh's plan.

Now that they had been confirmed as companions, Ishtar naturally signed a contract with Ritsuka, connecting their magic channels.

Although this passage does not mean much to Ishtar.

Heroic spirits of later generations, or more precisely, magicians after the end of the Age of Gods, basically used the magic power within their own bodies, which was also known as the Minor Source. Therefore, they attached great importance to their own magic power, and considered those with more magic circuits and better quality to be more qualified.

But for the magicians of the Age of Gods, the amount of their own magic power was not important at all, because they all called upon magic power directly from the environment or even the root, collectively known as the Great Source. But unfortunately, with the end of the Age of Gods, the Great Source suddenly decreased, and no magician could collect much magic power directly from the environment.

However, at this time everyone happened to be in the Age of Gods, where the source of mana was inexhaustible, so under normal circumstances, Ishtar had no need to take magic power from Ritsuka.

Because of this, when Ishtar signed the contract, she specifically said, "The contract has been signed. As for the master-servant relationship, it is up to your imagination." This statement highlights the goddess's dignity.

Amber was also nervous when she heard this. The difference between big source and small source was almost the same as the difference between Taixu sword energy and ordinary martial arts. Fortunately, she did not travel to the modern era, otherwise she might have become a blank immortal.

[Host, please don't worry. The system will not let you run out of mana.] The navigation's mechanical voice sounded.

I always feel that the navigation's speech has become a lot more humane.

"Wow... After Miss Artemis, the second Goddess Servant to sign a contract..." Seeing that the atmosphere had finally stabilized, Roman's voice rang out: "But now is not the time to worry. We need to confirm the basic situation."

"Goddess Ishtar, you are a Pseudo-Servant based on a human body."

"Of course, a god can't become a human familiar, because their size is too large." Ishtar didn't deny it. "So, if a god wants to become a servant, it needs to possess. In other words, possession is a downgrade."

"Possessed?" Amber was stunned.

This term is certainly not unfamiliar to her, but she has only watched two episodes of the Fate series and has never thought about heroic spirits possessing humans.

Looking at this face that is exactly the same as Rin Toosaka's and the figure that seems to be no different, she naturally thinks of Rin Toosaka again.

"Yeah, you didn't know?"

Ishtar looked at Amber strangely. Although Amber had no divinity and was essentially a human, in the Age of Gods, especially in Mesopotamia, the boundary between some humans and gods was actually very vague. Just like Jusurad before, he was a human who survived the flood, but eventually became a gatekeeper of the underworld.

Gilgamesh's so-called "seal of divine authority" symbolizes "deification." It is not a god recognized by gods, but a god recognized by humans, that is, a belief that originates from humans and exists for humans.

In her eyes, the Red Kite Immortal, who was named a supreme immortal by the emperor, was such an existence.

It's strange that such a being is actually surprised by possession or something like that, right?

"Then, may I ask you a question? It's a question of personal ethics as a Chaldean representative... no, it's a question of personal ethics as a doctor." Roman said seriously, "How is the girl you possessed? Is she still in your possession?"

Hearing this, Amber frowned, and her mood suddenly became complicated.

Toosaka Rin is her favorite paper-thin wife, and it was because of Ishtar's resemblance to Toosaka Rin that she initially had a lot of good feelings towards her.

But in the end, Ishtar was the one she really met and made friends with, and she took over Tousaka Rin's body...

Amber, with her pig brain overloaded, didn't know what to do.

"Hmm? If I'm not mistaken, Mashu was the one who did this, right? How can you still talk about humanity after doing something like this?" Ishtar raised an eyebrow, but seeing that Amber seemed very concerned, she sighed and said, "Okay, for Chiyuan's sake, I'll answer you. If you want to ask whether I killed this girl, then the answer is no."

"But if you ask whether that girl will surface again, the answer is no."

"We're not replacing each other, but rather merging. I'm about 70% and she's about 30%," Ishtar explained. "So, don't think of it as one replacing the other, but rather that this girl suddenly became Ishtar one day."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Amber, whose brows relaxed, and said with a tone of resentment and dissatisfaction, "Are you satisfied with this answer, you human guardian?"

Gundam SEED's Sea Mist Ship Girl Commander

This is a story with a male protagonist. I don’t know if you will like it, but Gundam Seed and Sea Mist were my favorite anime in my childhood. I also thought about writing about Firefly going to Gundam.

Although if I have to go, it's the Mercury Succubus.

Unfortunately, I recently rewatched Code Geass, and if I were to write about a mecha war, I would definitely prioritize Code Geass.

There will be another update today, maybe two chapters, but more likely one.

Chapter 27: Stop

Even Amber could tell what Ishtar meant at a glance.

She had said before that the other person looked like an old friend of hers, and now with this attitude, it is obvious that she is thinking of the old friend again. For a goddess who is arrogant and has a strong self-esteem, it is absolutely disrespectful to look at herself and think about others.

What's more, even if the other person is not a goddess, treating the other person as someone else's shadow is not a good thing.

Facing the goddess's sarcasm, Amber should of course apologize: "Sorry, I was rude."

"Humph, this is the second time, but there won't be a third time." Ishtar folded her arms, raised her chest and expressed her dissatisfaction.

The interaction between the two made Ritsuka couldn't help but smile.

"What's wrong, Master?" Ishtar looked at Ritsuka who suddenly laughed.

"Nothing, I just feel that perhaps only Ishtar could make the Immortal look like this," Ritsuka said. "At times like this, I always feel that the distance between the Immortal and us isn't that far after all."

That sounds nice.

Very pleasant to the ear.

Ishtar immediately smiled and walked down from the throne in the temple, saying, "Of course, I am Ishtar after all. Besides, Chi Yuan is perhaps much closer to you than you think. After all, she is the protector of mankind. As someone who accompanies mankind, she won't be alienated from them."

"Is that right?"

Ritsuka doesn't know much about the Red Kite Sage. According to the novels told by Merlin, the Red Kite Sage doesn't seem to be a very humane being.

But having experienced so many singularities, he certainly understood that Servants were reflections of Heroic Spirits during a certain period. It was not certain at what period this Red Kite Sage existed. If she herself had no intention of revealing it, then no one would know.

This is probably one of the reasons why fictional heroic spirits are so elusive.

Amber's eyes lit up slightly when she heard this.

Want to ask? Now? Here!?

She has wanted to tell everyone about Fu Hua's nb for a long time, but there has never been a chance. If she were to tell it herself, it would feel like she is bragging, so she had to suppress this idea. But seeing that the timing is now, it is natural for her to ask me questions, right?

Come on! Ask!

However, Ritsuka just nodded, thinking that the other party would say what he wanted to say when he wanted to, and stopped talking about the next thing, "Since our purpose here has been achieved, let's just return to Uruk."

The feeling of being stopped made Amber feel a little uncomfortable for a while.

Fortunately, the navigation system never forgot to help her manage her expressions.

"Is it so urgent to go back to Uruk?" Ishtar felt a little awkward when she heard this. Although she accepted Gilgamesh's things, it did not mean that she would thank Gilgamesh for it.

On the contrary, she became even more disgusted with Gilgamesh. After all, Gilgamesh's attempt to win him over clearly showed that he thought she was a poor goddess, so he flaunted his wealth.

Although this is true, she also has to save face!

Amber just thought that Ishtar was reluctant to leave the temple that she had painstakingly built here. She was about to speak to comfort her and then lead everyone back again, when she saw the navigator who had been silent for a long time pop up a screen in front of her.

[Optional: Talk to Ishtar at night]

The navigation system has always been relatively silent. If you don’t speak actively, there will be basically no movement, just like an emotionless AI.

At this moment, a task suddenly popped up, and Amber of course planned to complete it.

But...at night? She still has to practice at night...

"One night's absence won't have much of an impact," Fu Hua said.

She already understood the logic behind the system's task release. Simply put, it hoped that the characters in the "plot" would pay attention to and recognize Amber. The more recognition they received, and the more important the role of Amber, the more benefits Amber would gain.

Since the navigator suddenly spoke, it means that something will happen tonight.

Amber felt Fu Hua's thoughtfulness, but couldn't help but tease: "The Immortal said before that if you don't make progress in cultivation, you will regress. You have to complete it every day, huh, woman."

Fu Hua just felt that this girl was here to jinx her. Among all her disciples, none of them were as lively as her, and none of them knew how to provoke her anger.

Fortunately, Amber also knew that she was dancing in a minefield, and quickly added: "I recognize your ability to adapt to circumstances. You are worthy of being a Supreme Immortal. With the level of a Supreme Immortal's disciples, I am afraid that my absence for ten days will not be a problem!"

However, this only allowed Fu Hua to record more in her notes.

Amber, unaware of this, continued, "It will take three days to return to Uruk. If you are reluctant to leave the treasures of this palace, you can take care of them first and then catch up with us along the way."

"That's not the case." Ishtar waved her hand and sighed, "Forget it, let's set off now. Seeing the face of the King of Uruk in three days should be enough to calm me down and not punch him."

Since the goddess said so, of course no one had any intention of refusing.

Anyway, the Warcraft front is not in a hurry. Three servants are guarding the front line. As long as the goddess does not attack the city herself, it is unlikely that any accidents will occur. As for the goddess waking up three days later, they have already rushed back to Uruk.

There was no way. Although there would be no accidents if the goddess attacked the city herself, if the goddess attacked the city, the three servants would not be able to resist at all.

Divinity is certainly a weakness, but it also has far more advantages than weaknesses. For example, if there are 10,000 weapons in the world, and 1,000 of them are anti-divine weapons, then divinity will only be afraid of these 1,000 weapons. On the contrary, if there is no divinity, it will be afraid of 10,000 weapons.

And those three servants just happened to have no moves that could work against the divine servants.

Ishtar packed up the treasures collected in the temple, and then left the temple with everyone else.
