"Is this your friend?" Quetzal was stunned for a moment by the sight of the two men, their appearance being identical, with only their temperament and hairstyle being noticeably different. However, he soon discovered their biggest difference. "Is this friend the divine aspect of Chiyuan?"
"So this is the method used to separate divinity?" Ishtar nodded in understanding.
"Instead of accepting the divinity, he separated it and created another incarnation. This is indeed a brilliant move." Merlin also gave his evaluation.
"How can I be considered a god? Compared to me, that old antique is more like a god, right?"
The Herrscher of Knowledge hadn't expected to be criticized right after she came out, and before she could even say anything, she was already being criticized. She angrily said, "Let me be clear, I don't have the good temper of an old antique. You better control your words."
Merlin wasn't afraid at all. He smiled and said, "That's true, but your divinity and personality are indeed very suitable for a 'goddess'."
Everyone looked at the Herrscher of Knowledge, then at Ishtar, and had to nod.
Indeed, she is lawless and self-willed, she is simply a goddess.
"Huh? Don't you understand what people are saying?" The Herrscher of Knowledge had long been annoyed with this slacking riddler and was planning to teach him a lesson.
"Just let me go. If a fight breaks out, I'm no match for the Red Kite Immortal." Merlin said with a smile, "The Red Kite Immortal wouldn't want to bully a powerless magician like me, would he?"
"It's too late for you to realize how powerful I am now." The Herrscher of Knowledge laughed and said, "I've felt this way before. There's something wrong with each of you. You can easily resolve this crisis, but no one is taking action. But it doesn't matter. I'll beat you all first, and then I'll go find the Holy Grail. Then everything will be resolved, right?"
"Haha, if only it were that simple." Merlin shook his head. "After all, we don't even know where the Holy Grail is right now. We originally thought it was in the hands of the Three Goddesses, but the Goddess of Warcraft and the Goddess of the Jungle didn't have the Holy Grail either. The only possibility left is the Goddess of the Underworld."
"In my opinion, the Holy Grail must be in Tiamat's possession." The Herrscher of Knowledge offered a crude and simplistic hypothesis: "The world's treasures belong to the powerful. Tiamat is so powerful, so the Holy Grail must be in her possession as well."
This is the worst guess, but also the most likely guess, so Merlin and Gilgamesh have been trying to find ways to increase their fighting power. After all, if the Holy Grail is really in Tiamat's hands, then a battle with Tiamat is a trial they cannot avoid.
"Shi... Xiaoshi, stop messing around." Amber, who subconsciously wanted to call out to Shibao, quickly retracted her words. "Tiamat, as the Mother Goddess of Creation, is not an enemy to be underestimated. It would be safer to make plans after we bring Gilgamesh back from the underworld."
"you..."
The Herrscher of Knowledge wanted to complain about how Amber was such an old-fashioned antique, but when he thought about the fact that Amber was acting as an old-fashioned antique at the moment, he reluctantly took back his words.
Thinking that it was Amber who got her out to breathe, she suppressed her emotions for the time being: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you this time."
As she spoke, she looked at Quetzal and smiled a healthy smile. "But since I finally got out, it wouldn't be a big deal to stretch my legs, right?"
Amber was silent for a moment, thinking that Shibao had always wanted to fight Quetzal, and it was not easy to stop her, so she looked at Quetzal with a questioning look.
Quetzal winked in response, then looked at the Herrscher of Knowledge and said with a smile, "Very good! Such a positive and energetic challenge, a face-to-face confrontation. I have no reason to refuse, big sister."
"Ha, make no mistake, you are the challenger." The Herrscher of Knowledge smiled even wider.
Amber: ...Should you please stop talking about this...?
Herrscher of Knowledge: What? You think I'll be cut in half?
Amber: ...Forget it, as long as you are all happy.
Believing that the Herrscher of Knowledge knew his limits, Amber stopped looking at the situation and instead looked at Ishtar. "Let's get down to business first. Xiaozhi isn't someone who would disregard the overall situation. Let them handle the higher-ups."
Ishtar certainly had no objection. She flew high into the sky, punched a big hole in the entire square, and then jumped down with the three of them.
Seeing the three figures disappear, the three people on the ground looked around again.
"That's good now. That old antique is gone, and we can finally let loose." After a long period of peace, the Herrscher of Consciousness, whose bones were stiff from traveling with Fu Hua, did some stretching movements, his expression showing an eagerness to try.
"Of course no problem, but it's better to end it as soon as possible. After all, I still need to find time to train the soldiers." Quetzal also had expectations in the face of this clear desire to fight. It would be better to say that the previous two battles with Amber were not actually satisfying, and it would be a great pleasure to continue them at this time.
Unfortunately, she still had a mission to complete and couldn't fight so recklessly.
Seeing her at ease, the Herrscher of Consciousness remembered that his Herrscher core had been lent out, and she could not use the imaginary energy when using Yu Duchen as a carrier.
It would be boring to play like this.
"Alright then, let's play for three hours, counting the rounds we each win." She quickly came up with a solution: "But don't make excuses for being careless. Unlike that old fogey, I won't let you down, so I urge you to play seriously!"
"So, when you fought me before, Chi Yuan didn't use his full strength?" Quetzal was a little surprised, but it also made her more motivated: "Then..."
"let's start!"

Chapter 42: Ishtar's Fury
"Very good, this is the underworld, how does it feel?" Ishtar, who was slowly falling, looked at the three people on the ground and asked with a smile.
"I barely... I managed to block the impact of the landing with my shield..." Mashu looked at Ritsuka beside her: "Senior, are you hurt?"
"Fortunately... I'm not hurt, but Ishtar doesn't have any magic to transfer..."
Feeling his whole body stiff from the impact, Ritsuka asked with a grim expression.
"Of course I know something as simple as teleportation magic," Ishtar said helplessly. "But what happens afterward is terrifying, right? What if the power is sealed the moment you teleport? Wouldn't you fall to your death? Anyway, we can just dig our way over here, so it's better not to teleport if we can!"
"The communication is connected. I was worried about whether I could observe the situation in the underworld. It seems that my worries were unnecessary."
Roman's voice also came from the bracelet: "But after all, this is just the underground of Kusa City...?"
"Eh? I thought this was another dimension... Is this the Age of Gods?" Mashu looked at Ishtar.
"It's hard to say about other ages of gods, but in Mesopotamia, heaven, earth, and the underworld are all woven from the same 'fabric'." Ishtar nodded. After all, it was an era when humans and gods coexisted. However, there was no need to explain too much. Seeing that the three of them were fine, she took the lead and walked ahead.
"Anyway, just follow me. I've been here once, so I know the way pretty well."
Amber continued to move forward with Chaldea, feeling the power at this moment.
Although it is the underworld, the concentration and quality of mana are even higher than that of the earth.
Is it because there is no life, or because they are all spirits... But no matter what, her power has not decreased.
Led by Ishtar, they soon arrived at a door. Although it was called a door, it looked like just a stone pestle made up of three stone pillars piled together.
"This is the first entrance," Ishtar explained. "The Gate to the Underworld is a gate of justice that questions the soul's good and evil. Good and evil are equivalent, and only the human values that change when making choices change. Therefore, no single option is necessarily correct."
"It's annoying no matter what you choose, so just choose the side that you feel most comfortable with."
She pointed as she spoke: "Just listen to the question and think about the answer as you walk through the door."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sound came from the gate of the underworld.
"Answer me—"
"Answer me—"
Isn't this Ai Lei's voice? Why is the pitch so low...?
Amber was a little confused.
"The Living Who Fell into the Underworld - Fu Hua"
"Hmm? Does this door have a designated respondent?" Ishtar was stunned for a moment, then looked at the three people behind her: "Speaking of which, who is Fu Hua?"
“Eh…?”
This question made Ritsuka and Mashu stunned for a moment.
Mashu, always straightforward and honest, glanced between Ishtar and Amber with a questioning look and couldn't help asking, "Aren't you two friends? Fu Hua... is the immortal's real name."
Ishtar: "..." Speaking of which, the title of Red Kite Immortal was given to her by the Emperor...
Amber: "..." I introduced myself to Chaldea at the beginning, but because I was always called "Sage" and so on, I forgot about it for a long time...
The gate to the underworld suddenly flashed with dazzling light, and then slowly dissipated.
The heavy yet melodious voice continued, "The standards of beauty vary, but there are absolutes. Black surpasses white, earth surpasses heaven. So—Ereshkigal or Ishtar, who is beautiful?"
"...?" x4
“Wait!? This is different from before!?” Ishtar’s eyes turned golden in anxiety.
"Very good, this is an irrational question. So what is the Immortal's answer?" Roman, who was always watching from the back, also laughed out loud at this question.
"Of course you know how to choose! Fu-Hua-!"
Ishtar suddenly turned around and looked at Amber. Her golden eyes revealed obvious gloom and coercion. Amber, who was already feeling guilty, could only nod: "It's Ishtar..."
"That's right, just choose the easier option and follow your heart."
Hearing this, Ishtar's expression instantly brightened. She smoothed her hair, confidently displaying her charm. "I'm sure you're right, given that one side is the goddess of vegetation and decay, while the other is the goddess of beauty and harvest. The answer is obvious, but thank you anyway."
"Are you—stupid—?"
The stone gate that originally glowed blue turned red, and a huge thunderbolt instantly struck Ishtar.
"Ishtar!?" Ritsuka and Mashu hurriedly supported the goddess who was temporarily unconscious after being struck by lightning.
As for Amber...
Amber didn't dare to help.
Elle and Ishtar are both her friends. Now that Gilgamesh has accidentally fallen into the underworld, she has come to her friend's house to ask for help and release Gilgamesh. Even if she has to fight in the end, that is a matter for the future. Now she still has to beg for help.
However, the first door directly exposed a problem that made it difficult for her to face Ishtar, so she didn't want to continue to make Ishtar unhappy, so she gave the answer without thinking.
As a result, this answer caused Ishtar to be struck by lightning.
“Yes... Ereshkigal..."
"correct--"
After hearing this answer, the red light on the gate finally disappeared, and the entire gate turned into an inconspicuous stone.
"There's no need to go against your conscience, Fu Hua!" Ishtar, regaining her composure, looked annoyed. "This has nothing to do with your answer. It's that guy who's slowly chipping away at my divinity! Just give the correct answer!"
"This is Ailei's territory after all. There's no need to forcefully confront her unless absolutely necessary."
Seeing Ishtar clearly unwilling to admit defeat, Amber reminded her.
"Elei!?"
Ishtar's expression grew even more angry. "When!?"
If it was the Gate of the Underworld who said Amber's name, she would not be surprised, after all, it was the Gate of the Underworld, but when Amber uttered the more intimate nickname "Ailei", the meaning was completely different. It was obvious that these two people knew each other before!
"..." Amber felt sweat pouring down her spine. She played dumb, avoiding the core question, and answered, "Because her name is Ereshkigal... With Shenzhou's pronunciation, calling her Ere is more comfortable."
"Hmph! Fine!"
Ishtar had no intention of holding on to her, but said, "From now on, you must answer all the questions 'correctly'! We must not let that gloomy goddess continue to be so proud!"
"...OK."
This is the last update today, thank you all for your support!

Voting for the next volume
To be honest, I have thought a lot about the next volume, but unfortunately I am not satisfied with most of it, because the ones I want to write are not very popular, and I need to write some popular ones at the time of listing to avoid a sudden failure.
After comprehensive consideration, I chose Jujutsu Kaisen as the copy. Originally, I wanted to choose fz and fsn, but what everyone said is right. These two are too old, too many people have written about them, and I don’t have the confidence to write a good one.
Jujutsu Kaisen is actually not my best choice, so I might as well write down my ideas first, and you can add to them.
Spell Return Battle:
Seele (Special Grade Cursed Spirit Black Seele Armor)
Mei
Dream of One Heart (Special Grade Spell Tool, Grandpa)
----
Currently, the above are the most popular ones, mainly because the personalities of these three are easier for me to write. (However, Yingbao’s popularity seems to be not as high as before)
You can also give some suggestions, preferably ones with high popularity. I want to accumulate popularity for the first three volumes so that I can write something niche after my popularity stabilizes.
For example, I am more interested in the firefly Lelouch, Vita the Mercury Witch, the PK between Dian Dao Jie and Jing Liu in the Wuxia Imperial City (although Dian Dao Jie will be easily defeated), and the powerful shadow man Kurosaki Hina.
(However, I only watched the animation of Shadow Power)
Chapter 43: Uruk Comedy
Even though Ishtar, who is ambitious, already knows what Elle is thinking, she is unwilling to let the other party take advantage of her. Because she can get everything, she naturally thinks that everything she owns should belong to her, even friendship.
If he was facing other people, this idea would be suppressed, but when he was facing Ai Lei, who was half his body and completely opposite to him, this idea reached its peak.
Therefore, after crossing the seven stone gates, Ishtar's body, along with her divinity, had been weakened to one-seventh of its size, literally to the point where she could be easily crushed to death by Elle.
"This is truly remarkable! I used to find it amusing, but now I can't bear to watch it any longer." Gilgamesh, who met him at the third door, had a grim expression on his face. "It's undeniable that Ishtar's combat power has declined. If she continues to act this incompetent, things will get very bad."
"Eh? But we have a fairy here..." Mashu looked at Amber beside her.
"Hmm... In terms of strength, Red Tobirama is probably the pinnacle of basic servants, and even among divine servants, he is also the top one."
