It’s as sweet as drinking clear spring water in extremely hot weather!

The corners of Ereshkigal's mouth curled up. Wasn't this entirely within her expectations?

"Yeah, right?"

Ishtar was quite smug when she saw that everything was as she expected.

"But don't be sad too soon."

Don't be happy too soon, right?

wrong!

Ereshkigal sensed from Ishtar's words that something else was amiss.

What's going on...

Ishtar spoke with great confidence. She did not state the conclusion first, but started with Russell's identity.

"Before in the underworld, I told you that Lugalbanda's status was special, but I didn't say it out loud. His special status lies in the fact that he will give birth to the wedge of heaven that connects humans and gods."

So, our children are so special?

Ereshkigal's heart was at ease again.

Isn’t this still a good thing?

Ishtar's expression turned serious.

"The gods require that if you marry Lugalbanda, any subsequent children born must be given to the gods to raise."

"What!?"

The dark divine power surged out like a volcanic eruption, causing Ishtar to shudder.

She muttered to herself, why does it feel like even though she is not in the underworld, Ereshkigal's momentum remains the same.

Frightened, Ishtar quickly said, "How can this be possible? Ereshkigal has suffered enough injustice, how can her future child be taken away from her?"

"The gods listened to my advice and abandoned this plan."

"is it?"

Ereshkigal relaxed a little, and looked at Ishtar with some surprise.

This guy can still do something useful occasionally.

Whatever.

From now on, you don't have to be so harsh on her.

"Yes!"

Ishtar heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Ereshkigal relax.

She had never imagined that even an unborn child would hold such a high position in Ereshkigal's heart.

Really...

But, a husband who was forced into a marriage shouldn’t be that important, right?

Ishtar thought about it and decided that she had to take some insurance for herself.

She expressed indignation and spoke in a dissatisfied tone.

"But later on, we all felt that forcing you to be with Lugalbanda was really unfair to you."

Not wronged!

Ereshkigal's eyes widened.

Who said this matter was unfair?

Who said it's bad to be with Lugalbanda? It's really great to be together.

Ishtar glanced at Ereshkigal secretly, but saw nothing, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to complain.

"Finally, because I spoke for you before, I disobeyed the gods, and because I failed to bring Lugalbanda back, the gods unanimously decided to punish me."

It’s a deal!

Double happiness!!!

Ereshkigal smiled a long-lost smile and offered some false comfort.

"This is so unfair to you."

"that is!!!"

Seeing Ereshkigal's smile, Ishtar felt relieved and quickly told him everything.

"The gods actually punished me by making me marry Lugalbanda in your place! You said this is what happened..."

"Well...I made it..."

Ishtar swallowed, feeling a little overwhelmed and said in a panic.

"That's right. You...why are you able to display such divine power in the mortal world? Also, what is the power emanating from that spear in your hand?"

"This..."

Ereshkigal put on the crown, his tone frighteningly calm.

"This is made by fusing seven divine artifacts into my original weapon, giving it the ability to transform the terrain into the underworld in a short period of time."

What a powerful ability!

It's the perfect weapon tailor-made for Ereshkigal!!!

But where did those seven magical weapons you mentioned come from?

Ishtar suddenly realized what was happening and said miserably, "My divine weapon!!!"

"No, no..."

Ishtar suppressed her sadness at having her treasure completely taken away, and said quickly.

"You don't have to return the artifact. After all, I helped you, didn't I? You look like you're about to take action. What's going on?"

"Because I have a love for him."

In the absence of outsiders, the goddess with a quirky personality reveals her true feelings.

She was not worried about Ishtar leaking the secret, because soon Ishtar would no longer have the ability to do so.

Ishtar was stunned.

It was obvious that Lugalbanda was the one destined to be with her, but Ereshkigal actually fell in love with him.

wrong!

Could it be that she fell in love with Ereshkigal because he was two sides of her coin?

Even so, it's still confusing!

"Why did you fall in love with him?"

She never expected this to happen and asked in confusion.

"And why is the way you say this so terrifying?"

"Because my love is terrible."

Ereshkigal knew this well.

Whether he likes surveillance or wants to keep Russell by his side.

She deeply understood how terrifying her love was and how dark her heart was.

However, Ereshkigal would not go against this terrifying love.

For her, the only thing she couldn't accept was Russell leaving her.

"I...I won't accept that!"

"It doesn't matter, Ishtar."

"But...can we reconcile?"

"At this moment? You're kidding."

......

Uruk, in the city.

Russell looked at the small map, confused.

Is Ishtar coming?

Come on, why is her name flashing on the map?

48. Mimicry is despicable

Why is it flashing faster and faster?

Looking at the names flashing like crazy on the small map, Russell's expression gradually became solemn.

Next to Ishtar's name, Ereshkigal's name was prominently displayed.

Could this stupid goddess have done something to dislike Ereshkigal again?

Really are......

This time, he won't really die, right?

Who else can save Ishtar?

Do you want to save yourself?

Looking at the favorability level of Ishtar on the panel, Russell was thoughtful.

Saving Ishtar is an event that will definitely increase her favorability.

Moreover, Ishtar definitely knows everything about the gods' plans, so you can ask her.

only......

Russell pondered for a moment.

There is a problem that needs to be solved. If you really want to save Ishtar, then the way you save her must not cause Ereshkigal's disgust.

On the one hand, he couldn't win, and on the other hand, Russell himself didn't want to do this.

It is best to guide Ishtar to save herself.

Then, we have to plan carefully.

......

Dodge and dodge again.

Ishtar looked at the sky just outside the temple, but stopped where she was with an unpleasant expression.

The entire temple had been transformed by Ereshkigal into a place of the underworld.

Breaking out of here is not as easy as it seems.

and......

She looked at the dark divine power that was all over her body and constantly trying to erode into her body, and her face became even uglier.

Limit yourself and don't let yourself go.

He showed no mercy, allowing the power of the underworld to erode him without any care.

Moreover, he was still accumulating strength there, and it was obvious that he wanted to completely get rid of her.

It's all about saving your own life!

Only then did Ishtar completely abandon all her fantasies.

"Ereshkigal, you actually want to kill me."

After those gloomy words were spoken, changes began to emerge.

"Gugalana, stop Ereshkigal!"
