My mother's love song

Tomoe Gozen held Rod in his arms, glared upwards, and drew a knife from his waist.

"Why do you want to hurt my lord!"

Blindfolded (Part 3)

Chapter 158: Two Mothers Fight for Their Son

"King Gilgamesh! Why did you hurt my lord?"

Tomoe Gozen hugged Rhodes' shoulders tightly and shouted angrily.

Ishtar: "Huh?"

Gilgamesh: What?

Meili: “…hoho.”

Fu Fu: "Fu, Fu Wu."

"...Hey, did I say something wrong?"

Tomoe Gozen looked around the palace in a daze, and countless eyes were focused on the two of them.

Sensing that something was wrong in the atmosphere, Tomoe Gozen, with a blush on his cheeks, cleared his throat twice.

"Ahem... Long time no see, King Gilgamesh.

I think you, as wise as you are, already know that the contract between you and me has ended, and I am here today to say goodbye to you."

Tomoe Gozen first glanced at the young man in her arms with a gentle gaze, then raised her head and spoke sternly.

"I have signed a contract with this child... Lord Luode is the master I have decided to serve for the rest of my life, so I will never allow anyone to attack him."

Gilgamesh's gaze shifted to the magical pattern on the back of the boy's hand.

That is, the Command Spell?

So that's what happened in Nippur. Is that true?

I thought it was just some rumors exaggerated by the common people...

The king's face turned grim. He put away the seal and sat back on the throne.

Even under the gaze of everyone in the sacred tower, Tomoe Gozen remained calm.

Announcing herself as Rhodes's Servant in front of so many people, she felt a sense of joy at having had a good harvest.

It was not until Ba Gozen and Rod said goodbye in Nippur that she understood the meaning of the Chinese proverb "One day without seeing you is like three years apart."

So he went to the sacred tower as soon as possible, intending to say goodbye to King Gilgamesh.

As a result, she really met Rhodes again in the God Tower.

This can be considered fate.

She glanced at the boy shyly and thought secretly.

My lord and I... must be tied together by a red string.

"Wait, wait! Wait a moment!"

The first person to rush in front of Tomoe Gozen was Ishtar.

She grabbed the female warrior's wrist in panic and threw hostile shots at her chest.

"Let go of your hands first! And your breasts! Don't press your breasts on Rhode's face! Can't you see that the child is in pain! If this was America, you would have been arrested!"

However, Ishtar was unaware of the demon blood that resided in the Bow Girl's body.

"……ah!"

Tomoe Gozen flicked her wrist lightly and threw the goddess who was so proud of fighting three people alone several steps away.

"...You are the woman who was very close to the Lord before."

Tomoe looked at Ishtar, then turned to ask Rhodes.

"Are you in pain... Master?" she asked gently.

"No, not at all. Sister Tomoe, thank you for saving me just now."

"Hmm... Hmm! This is exactly what I should do... I have decided to dedicate my body to you."

Tomoe Gozen's face flushed: "My Lord, please command me as you please from now on."

"Stop it! I'm the child's mother!"

Ishtar rushed forward again, and Tomoe Gozen protected Rod behind him and confronted her.

"If someone like you can be considered a mother, then I am also the mother of the Master."

""

The divine tower, which had been bustling with activity until two minutes ago, was now so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

The king, the magician, the chief priest, and the soldiers were all amazed.

The goddess who was a bit neurotic was fine... even the quiet, dignified yet majestic Japanese female warrior

However, in her case, the expression she revealed was more like that of a young girl in love than a mother.

"Senior! Look, it's the Shura Field! This is the first time I've seen a real Shura Field!"

Mashu pulled Fujimaru Ritsuka's sleeve with excitement.

“Fuuwuwu…”

"W-What's going on? Are the goddess and the female warrior fighting over the child?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka asked Meili.

"Hmm~ Even I have things I don't understand."

"……really interesting."

Romani's voice cut in, his voice noticeably higher pitched than usual.

"Among these two women, is one his real mother!?"

Ritsuka rolled her eyes, "Why are you so excited, doctor?"

"Fu, Fu," the pure white beast echoed.

"Hehe... Speaking of this situation, I'm reminded of the most famous anecdote about our enemy, the Magic King Solomon."

Leonardo da Vinci came to Romani and looked at him with a mysterious smile.

"It's 'Solomon's Cases', right? I've heard of this story!"

Little Eggplant's expression became bright.

"Yes." Da Vinci nodded: "According to the Book of Kings, two prostitutes once found King Solomon with a child.

They all claimed that the child was theirs and asked the king to judge it.

So King Solomon ordered his men to bring knives, saying that he would cut the child in half and give it to the two of them.

One of them agreed, while the other strongly disagreed.

So King Solomon gave the child to the mother who disagreed, because she would rather give the child to the other mother than have him killed.

"Hey~~~ So there is such a story."

Ritsuka Fujimaru stroked his chin, thoughtfully.

"Um... Ritsuka, are you really a high school student? Normally, you would know this story!"

"Ahahaha... That's so annoying, Miss Da Vinci. Of course I know that. I just think that King Solomon in the story is not the bad guy who clamors to destroy mankind as we see..."

The Magic King Solomon known to Chaldea is the culprit who burned the history of mankind.

"It seems that King Solomon is a very gentle person."

“…Haha.” Romani scratched his head with a wry smile.

Everyone's attention returned to the hall.

"Rod!"

Ishtar rushed over again, shouting his name.

The goddess' eyes were bloodshot, and her beautiful face had a devilish expression.

"Come home with me!"

Tomoe held the gleaming Japanese sword horizontally and blocked Ishtar.

"Goddess Ishtar, Lord Rod cannot go with you."

Ishtar was furious.

"You, what are you talking about, you... this... you are obviously a Japanese but overdeveloped cow girl!!!"

In response to the goddess's vulgar words, Tomoe Gozen simply glanced at her chest and then smiled elegantly.

"You are the goddess of the earth who is in charge of the harvest and human reproduction, but surprisingly... well, you are a little barren."

"What... this is already grown up... guh!"

Ishtar stomped her feet on the floor with a red face.

“I want to let you know the consequences of underestimating God!”

If this continues, Ishtar might blow up the entire ziggurat.

Seeing this, Rhodes was about to persuade Tomoe Gozen to stop talking, but he heard her staring at the goddess and speaking word by word.

"I don't care what kind of relationship you have with the Lord, nor do I care why you lied and claimed to be the Lord's mother.

But it was because of your frivolous behavior that the lord was in danger.

If I had come a little later, Mr. Luo might have been involved in the accident you caused."

"……Well."

Overwhelmed by Tomoe Gozen's aura, Ishtar unconsciously took a half step back.

"So, I can't bear to leave him around a dangerous person like you."

"...Gu!"

Ishtar was speechless.

Everyone: No, no, no, it was clearly that guy who took the initiative to provoke a fight with Gilgamesh.

If only Ishtar had a little more intelligence.

Rhodes looked at the frustrated goddess and thought to himself: Inanna and Toosaka Rin are both very smart, why do they become idiots when they are together?

"I will take Lord Rhodes away." Tomoe Gozen declared victory.

"……Wait."

Ishtar held out her hand with a look of despair: "No..."

"When you are more mature, take my Lord back from me."

Tomoe Gozen, whose aura had completely overwhelmed the Goddess of Heaven, looked straight at her and spoke coldly.

"During this time, please reflect on your actions, Goddess Ishtar."

Then she bowed deeply in the direction of the throne.

"Well, King Gilgamesh, Miss Siduri, thank you for your care during your time in Uruk."

She turned to look at Rhodes and spoke with a gentle expression and voice, like a Sichuan opera face-changing.

"Okay~ Let's go, Master."

Tomoe Gozen pulled Rhodes out of the main hall of the sacred tower.

"...Uh, Ishtar! I will come back to Mount Ebifu to see you often!"

After the two left, only the confused people and the stunned goddess were left.
