I'm in Type-Moon, how can I let you bully me?

Ishtar nodded, thinking that this was not unreasonable.

This is not a perfunctory statement.

But Ishtar knew that Mama and Enki were a match made in heaven.

The story between Mama and Enki also taught Enki the lesson of overdevelopment.

Therefore, he learned how to maintain balance and took a step closer to perfection.

but......

Is this just the fate between gods?

Is there such a connection between humans and gods?

Ishtar didn't say it out loud, but the questioning look she gave Utu said it all.

"So-called destiny is a relationship destined to happen for a certain purpose. Just as Enki and Mama were always drawn to each other for the sake of balance. As for Lugalbanda, if there really was such a thing as destiny, it would be without illustrious legends, extraordinary wisdom, or unparalleled bravery."

"What allowed him to connect with a certain goddess must be his unique attitude towards her, right?"

Wutu thought about it, felt that it was unlikely, and smiled.

"But that doesn't quite make sense. Attitudes are so unpredictable. As for fate... at least there has to be some inexplicable protection appearing on him, right?"

A unique attitude towards a certain god...

The inexplicable blessing...

Ishtar suddenly remembered what Russell had said for some reason when they were trapped together.

——"Ishtar, maybe we are destined to be together."

She began to feel uneasy.

Everyone else likes him, except Russell.

This is different, isn't it?

My protection has inexplicably appeared on him. No way, no way? Could it be...

Utu noticed that Ishtar looked a little nervous and said warily.

"Ishtar, what are you thinking about? Have you learned something important?"

"How can you slander someone's innocence out of thin air?!"

------------------

------------------

------------------

The next update should be after midnight. Today is Sunday and I am going to celebrate my friend's birthday.

35. Ishtar also thought so

"How can you slander someone's innocence out of thin air?!"

Ishtar's pupils dilated instantly, and she cried out in shock, her mind lost.

Wutu remained silent.

clean?

What did he say that tarnished Ishtar's innocence?

Besides, your crimes are known to everyone from heaven to Uruk. How can you still be innocent?

Ishtar also knew that she was a little panicked and spoke without thinking, and just now she thought of something wrong.

How can it be......

How could that guy Lugalbanda have a destiny destined for this goddess?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

But if that were true, wouldn't her next plan be to voluntarily give up her destined husband to Ereshkigal and become the victim?

No, no, I’m thinking the wrong thing again!

Ishtar quickly shook her head, as if trying to shake this possibility from her mind.

Wutu thought about it, sorted out his thoughts, and grasped the key.

"Ishtar, you reacted like this because of what I just said about Tianyuan, so you thought of something, right?"

"Could it be that you know who Lugalbanda's destiny is?"

His eyes suddenly became sharp, and the law enforcement god's ability to distinguish right from wrong was perfectly demonstrated at this moment.

Wutu reasoned seriously.

"Just now, I mentioned two conditions for Tianyuan's existence. The first is that the way they treat a goddess is completely different from others. The second is that they inexplicably have a protection that shouldn't exist. So, which of these conditions does Lugalbanda meet?"

Ishtar fell silent.

"..."

At this time, in the cave, Ereshkigal was holding onto the corner of Russell's clothes tightly, his eyes fixed on the conversation between Utu and Ishtar above.

Even if Ishtar was speeding through the underworld at an overloaded speed, given the speed at which the Garula spirit could travel in the underworld and the authority of the Lord of the Underworld, Ereshkigal and Russell were only one step slower than Ishtar.

Ereshkigal had been eavesdropping from below, tugging on Russell's clothes.

After hearing that Ishtar might be married to Ereshkigal by the gods, she almost lost control and wanted to turn the entire temple into a dead zone.

Enjoying everything I have never experienced since I was born.

Now, even the only thing I have is being taken away.

Ereshkigal's mentality almost exploded.

However, he only reluctantly recovered after Wutu later said that he and several other gods had rejected this proposal.

but......

Ereshkigal should not have been so happy.

Russell was a little confused as he looked at Ereshkigal, whose anger turned into joy and whose smile was particularly shy.

Just now, what Wutu said was the so-called "fate".

Is it because of this?

Yes, that's why.

In Ereshkigal's view, this destiny refers to himself.

Everyone else was very afraid of her and kept their distance from her, but Russell was the only one who admired her very much and was willing to get close to her.

Furthermore, the underworld and her protection inexplicably appeared on Russell.

so......

This is exactly me!

Unfortunately, Ishtar thought the same thing.

Should we say that they are indeed two sides of the same coin, and are even closer than ordinary twin sisters?

Although they have different personalities, experiences, brains, and ways of thinking, they all came to the same conclusion.

After adjusting her mindset slightly, Ishtar suppressed the inexplicable panic in her heart and began her performance.

This is something she is very good at.

Whose kid who often gets into trouble doesn’t know one or two tricks like this?

Not to mention professionals like Ishtar.

She knew very well that the best way to deal with questions was not to give an answer, but to ask the other party a question in return.

"Oh? I thought that in your eyes, I was a reckless fool who only knew how to get into trouble!"

No?

Ishtar's face seemed to be a little smug because of Utu's careful reasoning about her wisdom, which made Utu hesitate.

Could it be that he was wrong?

Was Ishtar just daydreaming and thinking about something else?

This is the effect of rhetorical questions.

It makes the original questioner feel shaken and uncertain.

However, Wutu is not someone who can be easily brushed off.

"So, what were you thinking about?"

"Of course, I'm thinking about how to counterattack the underworld!"

Ishtar waved her hand and summoned the celestial boat Maanna. After she mounted it, she spoke loudly with anger in her tone.

"That guy actually dared to humiliate me like that. I'm going to call a meeting of the gods and invite the seven great gods to join us in conquering the underworld!"

After making these harsh remarks, Ishtar ran away decisively.

This is the second move.

Once you have made the other party waver, you can use this period of hesitation to suggest that you are going to do something with more serious consequences.

At this time, the other person's mind will be completely focused on the matter with more serious consequences, rather than that little matter of "fate".

Unexpected, right? Wutu!

This is the goddess's escape route!!!

Wutu's face darkened, and he also released his divine power and chased after him.

"Ishtar, stop messing around!"

......

"Now that they've left, you can leave the underworld and go to Uruk."

After sending Russell to the cave entrance, Ereshkigal said goodbye to him reluctantly.

Russell lowered his head and said sincerely: "In the underworld, thanks to your care, I will definitely come back to see you."

Um......

He wanted to turn around and leave.

But Ereshkigal did not loosen his grip on the hem of his clothes.

Russell glanced at Ereshkigal and realized that the woman was playing the dumb game of "Erdlon, Salt Well Shrimp".

Just don't let go.

What should I do?

In the final analysis, this kind of Yin-angle personality must be neutralized with authentic Yang-angle behavior!

Russell took hold of Ereshkigal's hand, which was tugging at the hem of his clothes.

"You've already taken me on a tour of the underworld. Now, let me take you to Uruk!"

"Eh!? No, I can't leave the underworld."

Now, Ereshkigal could no longer play dumb. He shook his head and tried to retreat.

But Russell held her hand tightly, preventing her from retreating.

If you use force, it's definitely possible, but Ereshkigal was worried that it might hurt Russell, so he had to speak in a low voice.

"The boundary between life and death is very sensitive. The gods will not allow it. You will be punished."

"It's okay. Ishtar said that my identity is special. Perhaps the gods won't punish me for it."

Russell's tone didn't waver, his eyes seeking to meet Ereshkigal's, his aggression like a lion facing a sheep.

"Believe me."

"and many more......"
