My mother's love song

“……~!”

Chapter 183 How to improve the relationship between the goddess sisters... (8/25)

Quiet night, warm bedding.

Rhodes held the goddess's cool, soft and delicate hand and dragged it towards his waist.

Large patches of red glow bloomed on the goddess' beautiful face and spread all the way to her ears.

"…You, what do you mean by this?"

Ereshkigal turned to face Rhodes, pouted her lips, and asked quietly.

"My Lady Goddess, I can't sleep." Rhodes said, staring into her eyes.

"Huh, you really don't have good intentions."

Ereshkigal burst out laughing.

She moved her body and moved closer to Rhodes' arms.

Looking into each other's eyes, sharing the same air.

Ereshkigal stretched his neck and playfully put his cherry-colored lips close to Rhodes' ear.

The sweet and lovely voice of the Queen of the Underworld flowed into his ears.

"Okay, I'll do as you say. But... you have to sleep well after this, okay?"

……

……

……

The next morning, Rod and Ereshkigal returned to the underworld and freed the four people and one beast who had been trapped in the gun prison for a night.

"Judging from the results... this trip to the underworld can be considered a great success?"

Romani, who had been worried all night, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes! Of course! I knew it was like that! This is all my Rhodes' strategy!"

Because the transition from despair to happiness was so sudden, Ishtar fell into the state of Fan Jinzhongju.

The goddess who was transformed by power into a palm-sized being pounced on the boy's face like a facehugger.

"How could this kid abandon me? I love you the most, Rod!"

Gilgamesh said, “Well… just as this crazy woman said.

Pretending to betray us or putting us in jail were all strategies Rhode adopted to convince the goddess.

Judging from the results, it was his decision to temporarily abandon humans and choose the goddess that satisfied Ereshkigal."

After all, it goes without saying how much the goddess, who has been guarding alone in the cold underground for tens of thousands of years, longs for recognition.

"Thank you, Goddess. It would be a great help if you were willing to let King Gilgamesh go."

Mashu and Fujimaru Ritsuka walked up to Elle and bowed to her to thank her.

"Thank you, Ellie."

"Humph……"

The goddess of the underworld hugged her chest and turned around proudly: "I didn't do this for you, I am the enemy of mankind. Also, don't call me Elle, that's a name that only that child can call me."

Then, Ereshkigal freed the gun prison that imprisoned souls in the underworld.

In this manifestation, she killed a total of 1200 humans.

In fact, the bodies of these 1200 humans had long been sent by Gilgamesh to the basement of the tower and frozen using the king's magic ceremonial garment.

As long as the soul returns to the body, those people will be reborn.

Also, Ishtar has returned to normal size with CCup (lactation).

"Hey...Rod, say something."

Gilgamesh nudged Rhodes stealthily with his elbow.

"Say what?"

"Let her help fight the goddess Gorgon!"

"Row."

Rhode raised his eyebrows: "But... it costs extra money."

He secretly stretched out four fingers, indicating 40% of the gems in the king's treasury.

Gilgamesh: "You're raising the price before the battle... Are you a demon? You're just a copy of Ishtar!"

"I'm sorry, Rod... this is the only thing I can't do."

Ereshkigal shook her head regretfully when she heard Rod's request for her to join the Uruk front.

"I am bound by the covenant of the Three Goddesses Alliance. I cannot attack Gorgon no matter what. Otherwise, I will be punished by God."

In fact, Elle has decided to join the battle even at the cost of her life if necessary, but there is no need to say this out loud.

"If you are worried about the Goddess Covenant, I have a solution."

"Is there a way to break the contract between gods?"

Everyone's eyes were focused on Rhodes, and everyone was puzzled.

The boy suddenly looked towards the corner of the wilderness, a deserted area.

"Show yourself, I know you're there," said Rhodes.

"!?"

After hearing what Rhode said, they all turned their eyes to where the boy was looking, but there was nothing there.

"Rhode... there's no one else here. I know everything about the underworld... so..."

The Mistress of the Underworld paused in the middle of her speech.

A light mist dissipated over the empty wilderness, and an old man in a black robe appeared in the goddess' temple, leaning on a cane.

Ailei's eyes widened. "How... is it possible...? Someone I don't know about has invaded the underworld!"

The goddess of the underworld got one thing wrong.

The old man did not invade this place, but had been here from the beginning.

It exists in a valley between the human world and the underworld, at a slightly higher latitude than the Kingdom of the Dead.

“…Who is that person!?”

The old man's face was covered by a hood, and he said in a calm tone: "My name is Jusudela."

Gilgamesh sneered cautiously, "Wow, an interesting guy has appeared. You are also a masterless Servant like Anna... Humph, it's impossible!

Neither the living nor the dead. So... who are you, old man?"

The old man who suddenly appeared in front of him not only entered the underworld silently, but also his eyes that saw through everything could not see through his truth.

The old man spoke slowly: "Nothing. The young man over there and I are old acquaintances. I am just his collaborator."

"Hey...! Rod, do you know this suspicious guy?"

Ereshkigal looked at the ordinary, slovenly old man in surprise: ...Hmm! As a god of death, I actually felt the chill from him?

"Well... that's the case."

Rhodes waved at the intruder frivolously, "Hey! Long time no see, Azrael [old man]."

"Azrael!?"

Romani was shocked.

"It's the champion in the desert temple of the sixth singularity..."

The old man turned to the three-dimensional image of Chaldea and said, "Don't say such tactless words. Magician, do you want to be beheaded again?"

"Aaaaaaaaa, I'm sorry!"

Romani took a half step back in panic.

As early as in the Holy City singularity, Romani had his communication link with Chaldea and Ritsuka cut off by a sword because he wanted to reveal the true identity of King Hassan.

How did they do that? Even the all-round genius lady of Chaldea couldn't figure it out.

The hooded old man turned to Rhodes and said calmly.

"Are you still as ignorant of the courtesy of respecting the elderly and the virtuous as before?"

"Stop talking nonsense. Old man, can you do me a favor?"

"…It doesn't matter. That's why I came here."

King Hassan nodded slightly, and then his figure disappeared into the wilderness of the underworld.

"!?"

Ishtar shouted, "Ereshkigal! Behind me!"

A huge black shadow covered the small body of the goddess of the underworld, and suddenly...

唰

The simple greatsword swung out from the cloak cut through Ereshkigal's body from bottom to top.

"ah!"

The goddess's whole body was frozen by a feeling that was even more captivating than the extreme cold she usually emitted when threatening the dead.

The goddess, who experienced the emotion of "fear" for the first time in her life, immediately went blank and stood there motionless.

Ishtar's hands were full of gems, and she shouted angrily, "Hey! What did you do to Ereshkigal!?"

She stretched out her finger in a shooting gesture, and the expanding bullet of light illuminated the dark underworld.

"Calm down and look carefully. I didn't kill him. I just followed the boy's wishes and cut off the shackles of the alliance between the underworld and the goddess.

In this way, she will no longer be bound by the constraints left by the gods and can enter and exit the underworld freely."

Ailei stroked her neck and nape with lingering fear: "I was so scared! I wasn't cut in half just now, was I? Two halves in the mythical sense!?"

"3Q~Old man."

Rhodes smiled and waved to Wang Hassan, but the place where the old man was originally was already empty.

"Hey? Disappeared? So who is that scary old man?"

"Does Mr. Luo know such a powerful person?"

"…How many secrets do you have?"

It took a long time after Wang Hassan disappeared for everyone to recover from the lingering fear.

"That's it, I have to go back to my job of managing the underworld! I'll give you exit permits, so go back quickly!

Ishtar? If you are stupid enough to be destroyed, this body will be mine."

Ereshkigal walked up to Rod and took his arm.

"Of course, the child will be mine."

"No! I won't give him to you! I picked up Rod first!"

Ishtar rushed over at supersonic speed and snatched Rod's other arm.

Ai Lei smiled and said, "There is no such thing as first come first served. According to this principle, as your elder sister, I should have everything you have.

Besides, compared to a flamboyant and extravagant goddess like you, a smart, frugal and lovely goddess like me is more suitable to be Rhode's mother, right?"

"Huh? It's just that I became a little cuter, what's the big deal?"

The two goddesses, who are sisters and of the same origin, quarreled again.

"Hahaha...get along well, you two."

Rhodes, who was caught in the middle, said helplessly, "By the way, when you were hit by the old man just now, Ishtar was extremely anxious.
