My mother's love song

Mary, tied up, rolled around on the ground.

"I am the hero who saved Uruk! Without me, the world would have been swallowed by Tiamat long ago!"

"Who told you to hide it from everyone, idiot?"

Rhodes stepped on the female magician's face.

"Fufu! (Special translation: Well done!)"

Chapter 186 Ah...Mother! Please go slower...

The atmosphere in the conference room now is as cold as the fever temple of the goddess of the underworld.

"My mother actually came back to life..."

Ishtar's hands fell limply, despair written all over her face.

"Mother wants to exterminate all of humanity... Why on earth..."

Ereshkigal clenched his hands nervously and muttered to himself.

Gilgamesh held his chin in his hand and said, "...I see. No wonder the water quality in the Persian Gulf is like that."

Ritsuka Fujimaru and Mashu were discussing something with the Chaldea headquarters, probably listening to the settings of Tiamat.

"Um... can you untie the ropes on me?" The tied-up Mary lay on the ground with her butt sticking out, seeking help from everyone, but no one paid any attention to her.

Only the pure white cub stretched out its puffy paws and gently patted her face.

"Fu...Fu~"

……

Gilgamesh ended his deep thoughts and looked at the young man who seemed to see through everything.

Wang said, "Rod, is there something important you haven't told me yet? Something that even Meili doesn't know."

Faced with the king's questioning, the boy uttered a short name.

"Rahmu."

When they heard the name, Ishtar and Ereshkigal's faces changed.

"Rahmu is the god of protection and mercy in Mesopotamian mythology.

He is the first child of Abzu and Tiamat, and both Anshar, the father god of heaven, and Gishar, the mother god of earth, are his children.

However, among the eleven children of Tiamat, there is also a monster called Lahmu, who is a mysterious child shrouded in mystery.

"That's right," Ishtar continued. "Rahmu is my mother's eldest son, the first and last god. My mother sees him as a new human being... who will replace the old human beings."

Fujimaru Ritsuka asked in confusion: "So, what happened to this Rahmu?"

I don't understand the current situation, but it's a new type of monster enemy like Ulidim or Ugar, right? Why are everyone's faces so grim?

Rhodes said: "After Tiamat is resurrected, a large number of Lahmu will march towards Uruk from the Persian Gulf. The performance of each individual far exceeds that of the Sun Lion Ugar."

"Is that so... Even if we destroy the Gorgons, there will still be new, stronger enemies appearing." Romani frowned and asked, "Lord, how many enemies are there?"

"Today there are 200 million adults in the Persian Gulf."

There was deathly silence in the ziggurat of Uruk.

Far away in Chaldea, Da Vinci, who was enjoying afternoon teatime, sprayed all the espresso in his mouth on Romani's face after hearing the number reported by Rhodes.

Da Vinci stared blankly at the globe on Sheba: "..."

Romani was sprayed with coffee but didn't notice it at all: "..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka: "Two hundred million enemies stronger than Ugar...?"

Mashu scratched her cheek with her fingertips and said a little embarrassedly: "Um... Mr. Rod, I think you may not be very clear about the concept of 1000 million. 10 million is ..."

"No, Rod is telling the truth." Ereshkigal hung his head, "If it were a mother, she would be able to do such a thing.

Mother wants to create a species on the planet to replace humans, so of course she has to use the unit of 'billion'.

"You must be kidding... This kind of thing is not something Chaldea and humans can handle..."

……

……

The orange light of dusk poured into the tower, coloring the ancient building.

"King, it's getting late. Let's end today's meeting here." Sidulli walked to the king and urged.

Just standing here hesitating won't solve any problems.

It is better to use this gap to have a good rest and store up your energy. Maybe you will have an epiphany after a good night’s sleep.

"Let's put tomorrow's battle on hold..."

"No." Gilgamesh said calmly, "The [Marduk Blitzkrieg] will proceed as planned.

Rhodes just said it, Jin Gu's plan is to hope that Tiamat can wake up later.

This means that we have a great opportunity to defeat the enemy. If we don't destroy the Gorgons as soon as possible, the situation will only get worse."

The young man nodded: "Well...if the Gorgon is not defeated sooner rather than later, the consequences may be even more disastrous."

Although Rhodes informed everyone of the existence of Tiamat and Lahmu, he concealed the fact that Gorgon = Tiamat's awakening device from everyone.

He was willing to warn everyone and take precautions, but he did not give up on his plan to awaken Tiamat.

But he did not lie. The sooner the Gorgon was eliminated, the better the situation would be.

In the original plot of FGO, Chaldea killed Gorgon prematurely, causing the god Tiamat to be in poor condition when she just woke up.

If the situation here drags on, by the time Kingo's plan succeeds, I'm afraid only a complete Tiamat will descend directly on the city of Uruk.

……

After the meeting, Rhodes was left alone in the divine tower.

He tells Gilgamesh, Meli, and Siduri about the fate of the kingdom that will follow.

"Rahmu will massacre the Sumerians until only 500 people are left... No, not even 500 people will be left."

Siduri's legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground: "Rod...! Are you serious?!"

"...It's true." The young man turned his head away, avoiding the pitiful and desperate gaze of the chief priest.

"Ugh...!!"

Siduri covered her face and walked to a corner of the meeting room alone.

"Is that so... The Kingdom of Uruk will surely decline."

Uruk smiled gently. Although he still looked young, his eyes no longer had the rebelliousness and high spirits he once had.

Even if someone can see through the entire future, it is difficult to shake the direction of fate.

Gilgamesh walked back to his desk wordlessly and began to search.

Siduri asked in confusion, "King Gilgamesh? What are you looking for?"

"Siduri, where is the blueprint for the Fang of Nabisteen? While there is still some time, I want to make the final improvements to it."

"Here, King."

Siduri handed the design drawings of the Fang of Nabistim to the king.

"Hum, there is indeed room for improvement... Let me take a look." Gilgamesh spread out the blueprint, sat down at the desk, and began to modify the design.

Siduri stood behind her, observing the king's work: "Oh... It's a feat of genius! King, maybe you should try to find a way to become an architect!?"

"Really? Huhahahahahahahahaha!"

"..."

Rhodes looked at them speechlessly.

As if not affected at all by the despair of Tiamat's resurrection, the king and his subjects greeted the kingdom's death with a smile.

Even when you know nothing will change, you still fight. That's what being human is all about.

"Well, King. We'll take our leave first." Rhodes followed Mary to the door.

From the beginning, Rhodes had never worried about Gilgamesh's mentality. If he couldn't even withstand this level of despair, how could he be qualified to bear the lives of all people in this era.

"Oh...Rod, thank you for your hard work."

While drawing on the design drawing with a pen, Gilgamesh said seriously, "I haven't had the chance to thank you for what happened in the underworld.

Without you, I don't know what would have happened. I have seen all your contributions to Uruk. "Hero of Uruk"... Rhodes, you really deserve this title."

"Don't say such cheesy things." The boy smiled, "When everything is over, build a pure gold statue of me in front of the tower."

"Oh, no problem. I will build a statue of you out of pure gold. I don't know which woman influenced you to be extravagant, but you and I are quite compatible."

Gilgamesh stopped talking and focused on designing weapons again.

Rhodes left the Ziggurat and returned to the Gorgon raiders who were preparing to set off for the North Wall.

In this way, everyone devoted themselves to the preparations for the Gorgon crusade.

Despair will still come, but the only difference is that under the leadership of King Gilgamesh, people begin to make defensive preparations against Lahmu.

The fate of Uruk also changed little by little.

……

……

……

"My Lord!"

A familiar voice came from behind him. Rhodes turned around, but before he could respond, he was hugged by the girl.

In this Gorgon expedition, Tomoe Gozen's name was not on the list of the attacking team.

As a long-range archer-type general and the arsonist, it is a better choice for Tomoe Gozen to stay in Uruk for defense rather than joining a team to fight the boss.

If it had been before, Tomoe Gozen would never have agreed with King Gilgamesh's decision.

With the decisive battle approaching, she absolutely does not want to be separated from the one she loves.

Fight together, live together, even die together, it's all good.

However, Rhodes told Ba Gozen that there would be trouble on the north wall that only you could solve.

Rhode solemnly promised the ghost girl: "I will definitely come back, Ba."

She then nodded and accepted the Master's decision.

Tomoe Gozen, who came to see him off, bent down and hugged Rod.

She buried her face in the boy's hair, sniffing the scent of her beloved.

"My Lord...please be careful."

Sensing the hot gazes of the people behind him, Rhode smiled bitterly and said, "Hahahaha... Tomoe Gozen, don't do this, it's so embarrassing."

"No. Master, do you dislike me? After all, the goddesses all like you very much." She said sourly.

"How is that possible? You are my important Servant. I just don't want you to be treated as a nympho by everyone."

"Ba is a nympho, what's wrong with that?" The girl narrowed her eyes happily and said shockingly, "Ba wants to be a nympho who specializes in molesting the master."

Tomoe smiled and kissed Rhodes' lips: "I love you, my lord."

During her lifetime, Tomoe Gozen lost her significant other and was unable to be by her side at her final moments.

Until she met Rhodes, she was still worried about it and had endless regret buried in her chest.

But this time, she had no sadness of separation from her loved ones, but only beautiful visions of the future.

I want to continue my second life and witness my master grow up.

He must be a man who is more handsome and stronger than anyone else.

I wanted to be held in Rod's strong arms.

She wanted to sit on Rod's lap and act coquettishly towards him.
