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

Even the steady (and gloomy) Ereshkigal couldn't help but be frightened at this moment.

She knew that the kings of the mortal world, or even the high and mighty gods, all had some character flaws to a greater or lesser extent.

but......

This, this Ereshkigal really didn't expect!

After hesitating for a moment, she tentatively raised her left hand, put her head close to his shoulder and sniffed gently.

"I finally have such a devout believer, but I don't seem to have any odor. What should I do?"

Ereshkigal was a little distressed, wondering where on her body the smell was that she could let Russell smell.

She knew that her good sister Ishtar, while imprisoned, had developed a set of rituals that mortals should perform when they pledged allegiance to her.

That is - kissing the instep of Ishtar.

Although, there is still no one that Ishtar likes.

So, in order to please her honest (referring to praising her generously), intelligent (seeing her good points and praising her with substance), and her believer who did not lose his pride in the face of power (referring to helping her teach Ishtar a lesson), she was a little bit disappointed.

Should she also develop a set of rituals?

Let Russell find his own place to smell...

No no no!

This is still not good!

Ereshkigal shook her head, imagining Russell sniffing her body. Her face flushed and she felt inexplicably ashamed.

[Ereshkigal Favorability +10]

"?"

A big question mark popped up above Russell's head.

He felt that there was either something wrong with his system or with Ereshkigal.

He hasn't done anything yet, so how come his favorability increased through self-improvement?

Could it be that this is the easiest way to conquer a shut-in?

its not right!

He really didn't do anything, he just said something about smelling Goddess's scent...

If...

Russell was startled and looked around.

Did Ereshkigal hear it and misunderstand it?

It’s really a misunderstanding!

Russell looked at the panel.

[Ereshkigal: 80 (Shame)]

[I thought you were a devout believer, but I didn't expect you to harbor evil intentions towards the goddess! You're simply inviting a wolf into the house.]

The goddess's perception of you has changed, shifting from a believer to an unknown. But please note, this is like using a cheat code to quickly clear a game. If you don't maintain this favorable impression, it will be like a flower in the mirror, a moon in the water.

Russell was stunned. He finally realized that the system had a huge misunderstanding of him.

First of all, how could he have such evil intentions!?

Secondly, Russell plays games and never opens them.

Finally, does knowing the strategy count as unlocking it? Does it count as unlocking it if it’s not closed? Does it count as unlocking it if it’s unlocked?

Rank 3 Open

Rank 3: Command dragons and snakes. In the original Mesopotamian mythology, Ereshkigal could command dragons and snakes, and could also freely control the spirit of the underworld messenger, Garula. Your bond with her makes it impossible for low-level dragons and snakes, and underworld creatures, to refuse your orders, and high-level dragons and snakes, and underworld creatures, to have a greater favorable impression of you.

This bond system is really a good thing.

Russell sighed, wondering if this bond bonus could be brought into the real world.

According to the usual routine, it should be possible, right?

However, first of all, we need to find Ereshkigal.

Where is my dear goddess?

Rank 1: Protection of the Underworld

Rank 2 Goddess

Under the dual guidance of the underworld and the goddess, Russell looked towards the rock mountain and soon found the breath of Ereshkigal.

He stepped forward.

12. Ishtar: I'm really stupid.

"Siduri, this is the name the king gave you."

Holding the child who had just been coaxed to sleep, Anhaiduana finally showed a look of worry on her face.

Just now, in front of Siduri, Anhaiduyana kept smiling and sang soft songs to coax Siduri to sleep.

But when Siduri fell asleep, the worry about Russell buried in Anhaiduyana's heart still emerged.

She kept comforting herself that as the king of Uruk and a person valued by Utu, Russell would be fine.

But the bad thoughts in my mind can never be eliminated.

What if?

That was Ishtar, who could even ravage the sacred Mount Ebifu.

No matter what she does, Anhaiduyana will not find it strange.

After thinking about this, An Haiduana knew that tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

"Ugh......"

After sighing, Anhaiduyana placed Siduri in her arms on the small bed and carefully tucked in the quilt for her, fearing that a slight cold breeze would destroy this tender life.

Then, Anhaiduyana sat down at the table.

In front of her was a blank slate.

Anheduana herself was the first recorded and signed writer in world history.

In addition, she helped create the paradigms of poetry and verse that have been used by ancient believers and are the source of the development of contemporary poetic schools.

Trivial matters and subtle emotions may become inspiration for her creation.

What's more, it was a big event that happened today, which made her mood fluctuate constantly.

Anhaiduyana couldn't help but recall the last look back in front of the temple door.

The king of mankind, for the sake of his subjects, actually confronted the gods with his sword.

why?

It is obvious that the king and the gods are the common rulers of the world.

Before this, no one had ever thought of rebelling against the gods, or even of being disrespectful to them.

But in her eyes, Russell was like someone who had broken the "always been like this" rule and had done something earth-shattering for the first time...

hero.

But, going against God like this...

Anhaiduyana looked worried. She had some vague ideas in her mind, but something was stopping her from writing.

Since ancient times, temple priests have held the power called "culture".

Without exception, the priests created poems or legends praising the gods.

Even if humans like heroes occasionally appear, they are only vassals of the gods, or people who can achieve their goals with the help of the gods.

This is how it has always been, as it should be.

But, it has always been like this, right?

Anhaiduyana's vague thoughts gradually became clear.

What she wanted to create was the same thing that Russell did when he first shocked the world, that is, to break "it has always been like this" -

Create a work that is people-oriented, even if the content is against the gods.

The Epic of Lugalbanda.

When Anhaiduana came to her senses from her fantasy, she was surprised to find that she had already carved these words on the stone slab.

It turns out that I have already made the choice in my heart?

No longer hesitate.

The inspiration in Anhaiduyana's heart was like a spring, and the speed of her carving words was almost non-stop.

......

In heaven, gods will meet.

Ishtar sat in her seat, feeling rather uneasy.

Why are everyone looking at her expectantly with smiles on their faces?

"cough......"

At this time, seeing that Ishtar was a little confused and had lost her usual elegant demeanor as a goddess, Nanna was the first to speak and ask.

"Ishtar, have you met the new king of Uruk? Did the coronation ceremony go smoothly?"

Is it related to that guy?

Ishtar became even more restless, and even a cold sweat began to seep out of her back.

not good!

Was she going to accidentally get into trouble again?

No, no! This absolutely cannot be told truthfully!!!

But if you lie, the consequences might be even more serious?

Ishtar, having rarely used her brain, said politely, "Not bad. There were a few problems along the way, but I've mostly solved them."

"is it?"

After hearing Ishtar's words, Enki breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with satisfaction.

"Ishtar, although you are a little willful at ordinary times, you never let me down at the critical moment. You are still reliable."

The good man had forgotten that Ishtar had stolen many of his treasures.

At this moment, even the law enforcement god, the cold-faced and ruthless Wutu, curled up the corners of his mouth slightly.

Only Enlil, who sat at the most important position, snorted coldly and said mockingly, "You really bothered about this."

Hearing this, Anu looked at him with dissatisfaction.

Even the good-natured Enki was not kind to Enlil.

He spoke first, and in an unusually stern tone, he explained the reason for the incident.

"If you hadn't abused your divine power and summoned a devastating flood, the relationship between humans and God wouldn't have ended! We wouldn't have had to come up with this plan!"

"That's because humans are multiplying too much! They're becoming too noisy and powerful!!!"

Enlil, with his hot temper, could not stand Enki's provocation and immediately became angry.

He once felt that the human population was too large and made too much noise for him to sleep.

So he summoned a devastating flood and tried his best to destroy all living things on earth.

The death toll is countless.

Enlil was then, and is now, the supreme god of the Sumerian pantheon.

He stopped not only because of the advice of the other gods.
