Type-Moon, the Path of a Magician

Chapter 186: Where did Aqua come from?

It was still a short journey to Uruk.

The pilgrim team consisting of Merlin, Xia Yuan, Anna and Chaldea is finally about to arrive in Uruk.

If it were any other time, Merlin, who had been wandering outside for such a long time and had not yet found the clay tablet of destiny, would never dare to return to Uruk.

After working for such a long time, he has seen Gilgamesh's character clearly. Compared with little Altria, he is countless times more rigorous.

He cannot tolerate any flaws in his eyes. If anyone fails to do their job well or slacks off in front of him, they will be criticized and punished.

If I really returned to Uruk in disgrace and met Gilgamesh, I would tell him that I didn't find the Tablet of Destiny this time.

This behavior, which could be described as courting death, was like waiting for the other party to vent his anger on himself in Merlin's opinion.

He is not a fool. If he really goes back, there are only two outcomes waiting for him.

One was to kick Gilgamesh out of Uruk again after being scolded, and continue searching in Mesopotamia. The other was to throw him to the Warcraft front, add countless tasks, start crazy overtime, and squeeze his remaining labor.

For him, neither of these two endings was what he wanted.

So after searching for such a long time without any results, Merlin wandered around the Mesopotamian plains, looking for Xia Yuan's trace. As for the clay tablet of destiny entrusted by Gilgamesh, he had long forgotten it.

And Merlin was very glad for his actions.

Now, he not only found a lone servant Anna in the forest, but also teamed up with his good friend Xia Yuan to eliminate the biggest threat to the Warcraft front, the fake Enkidu, and brought back the body of Gilgamesh's best friend.

Now that he has accomplished so many good things, I believe Gilgamesh will not say much even if he still fails to find the Tablet of Destiny this time.

I can also enter Uruk openly without being scared.

Maybe he will get praise from Gilgamesh for his outstanding performance this time, and he won't have to work overtime anymore.

"Hey hey hey..."

Hearing Merlin's nasty smile, Anna felt speechless, and Xia Yuan kicked him on the butt without any hesitation.

"Idiot, put away that lewd smile of yours."

"Fufu, ow!"

Seeing Merlin being kicked, Mr. Fu Fu, who was lying on Xia Yuan's head, also let out a cry of joy.

"Ouch! Yuan, what are you doing again..."

Merlin, who was kicked from behind by Xia Yuan, widened his eyes and was about to complain, but immediately stopped talking.

"Do you feel it?"

Suddenly, Merlin and Xia Yuan's faces changed at the same time. They shifted their gazes to the horizon, as if they had noticed something, and then hurriedly shouted to the people around them.

“Get out of the way!!”

call out--! !

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a piercing sound that broke the sound barrier, and a human voice came from nowhere.

"Whoever's over there, get out of the way! You're in the way, don't block my way!!"

"Hey?"

"Senior, be careful!!"

The flying object in the sky was moving so fast that it broke the sound barrier.

Fortunately, except for Fujimaru Ritsuka, there were no so-called ordinary people among the members present. After hearing Xia Yuan's reminder, they all moved away when they realized that something was approaching here quickly.

And Fujimaru Ritsuka was also under the protection of Xia Yuan, and did not suffer the self-sacrifice of some useless goddess as in the original work.

The figure that fell from the sky also passed by Xia Yuan because he gently pulled Fujimaru Ritsuka, and landed perfectly on his face with perfect accuracy, and had an intimate contact with Mother Earth.

“Gu… It hurts so much…”

The dense smoke dissipated, revealing a dark-haired figure that had fallen freely from a high altitude, lying on the ground with stars in his eyes, in a very strange and shameful posture.

Because there was no Ritsuka to act as a cushion, the hard landing was so painful that Ishtar cried.

"It hurts so much... It's so tragic. It's all because of that damn Gilgamesh. Maana lost control again..."

"Fortunately, I am a god and will not be easily injured. Otherwise, I would have been in great trouble..."

Brushing off the dust on her body, Ishtar climbed up from the rolling rubble, muttering to herself, cursing Gilgamesh, blaming him for the cause of her plane crash, and lamenting her own strength and power, which prevented her from suffering any serious injuries.

As for the few people behind who witnessed the whole incident, they couldn't help but fall silent.

"..."

I thought to myself: Where did this guy, who is scantily clad, lands on his face, and likes to talk to himself, come from? Is he an idiot?

At this time, Roman, who also watched the entire scene of Istar's crash in Chaldea, also issued a timely warning.

"Be careful! Ritsuka, although it is very difficult to judge her appearance after the plane crash, you must not underestimate this Servant who appeared before you. She has the power of God that can be detected. She is a well-deserved Servant of God, and her own magic power level has reached a very terrifying level!!"

"What? This girl who crashed in front of me is actually a god?"

At this moment, Ritsuka and Mashu were surprised.

Xia Yuan, who was standing aside, was not surprised at all.

The other party was indeed Istar, as expected.

After all, she is the only one in the entire Seventh Singularity who can fly at super speed in the Mesopotamian sky and then fall down in such an extremely stupid posture.

Seeing Ishtar wearing the appearance of Toosaka Rin, Xia Yuan couldn't help feeling speechless. He didn't expect that he would actually see her outside Uruk.

And in this form.

"Um...are you okay?"

Seeing Ishtar just falling from a high altitude, Fujimaru Ritsuka asked with some concern.

She had experienced this unpleasant experience of falling from a high altitude not long ago, so she could empathize with it the best.

“Eh? You guys are…?!”

When Ishtar heard Fujimaru Ritsuka's voice, he realized that there was someone behind him.

Then she quickly turned her head to look at Xia Yuan and others who appeared in front of her, and Istar fell into a brief silence.

"It's over. Someone actually saw such an embarrassing scene just now? What a mistake. I didn't expect that there would be humans walking on the Mesopotamian plains in this situation. What should I do? Silence them? No, no, if I do that, wouldn't it be no different from being angry because of shame? But..."

While Ishtar was still thinking about how to cover up his plane crash, Ritsuka and Mashu were really stunned.

I was complaining in my heart: Is it really okay to say such horrible things in front of others?

Xia Yuan was speechless about the embarrassing attributes that came with the fusion of Ishtar and Toosaka Rin.

"No! The reason why I fell to this place is because I felt some huge source of magic power, and because the speed was too fast, Ma Anna was out of control..."

After thinking for a moment, Istar immediately sorted out the details of what had just happened.

Because she was pissed off by that damn Gilgamesh, she was planning to go back to her temple directly, but she suddenly sensed an unusually huge source of magic power during the flight.

This made her think that the Gugalana she had lost at some point had finally appeared, so she quickly controlled Ma Anna to turn around and fly over.

The result was that because she was flying too fast, the sudden turn destroyed Ma Anna's balance, causing her to suddenly lose her balance and fall directly from a high altitude.

Then it fell here.

Istar looked at the people in front of him for a while, and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward.

Although she wanted to cover up the embarrassing fact of her plane crash, Istar didn't have time to care about this little thing that had happened countless times. What she wanted to know more was where her lost Gugalana was.

Her nose twitched slightly, and her red eyes looked at Xia Yuan and others present. When her gaze fell on Xia Yuan, she seemed to have discovered something.

Istar's eyes suddenly lit up, and he suddenly moved towards Xia Yuan, grabbed his shoulders, and asked hurriedly: "Where?!"

"Where's what?"

Xia Yuan was a little confused, and the others were also puzzled.

I don't understand what Ishtar is talking about.

"That's it, that very powerful thing, it must be on you, right? You have such a huge amount of magic power, it must be its magic. Give it back to me quickly, it was originally mine!!"

As a typical example of someone who is too proud to face others, Ishtar did not want to tell in front of so many people the shameful fact that she had lost the Bull of Heaven, Gugalana, which was given to her by the god Anu.

So she, like Aqua, identified Xia Yuan and thought that Gugalana must be on him. She reached out and grabbed his collar tightly, then shook him continuously, wanting Xia Yuan to return Gugalana to her.

But she didn't realize that the huge source of magic power she sensed was not Gugalana at all, but the Holy Grail that Smoke Mirror had just brought back.

And Xia Yuan had not expected that this goddess Aqua was so confused that she could even mistake the magic power of her own cow.

"Don't move on, Ishtar. I don't have what you want."

After being held by Istar's shoulders and shaken for a long time, Xia Yuan quickly freed his hand, gently patted Istar's shoulder, then raised his hand, motioning her to calm down a little.

"Eh? Impossible! Don't try to fool me! Cunning human, the level of magical aura you carry must be..."

Istar was not at all surprised that Xia Yuan knew him.

Because in her extremely narcissistic cognition, there was no human being in the whole of Mesopotamia who did not know her, the mistress of the sky who was in charge of Venus and beauty and was regarded as the treasure of the gods.

It would be strange if the people of this land didn't recognize her.

"Give it back to me, human! If you don't, I will..."

While shaking Xia Yuan's body, Istar's tone became more and more excited, but when she saw Xia Yuan didn't move at all, she gradually became anxious.

Istar would not doubt her own judgment and thoughts. She would only stubbornly think that Xia Yuan had hidden her treasure and just didn't want to return it to her.

"A mere human dares to lay hands on the treasures of the gods. Such a daring fellow, wait and see how I punish him..."

"Punish you."

Seeing that Istar became excited and her eyes turned golden, Xia Yuan, who had been treated like a rag doll by her, raised his hand and tapped her head gently.

Then, before Istar could attack him, he immediately released the magic power in his body and successfully forced her back several steps.

"Can you calm down, Istar? Listen to me first. I really didn't take your treasure."

"?"

The scale of magic power that Xia Yuan suddenly released shocked Istar a little. She looked at the huge magic power coming towards her in disbelief and couldn't help but ask, "Are you really a human?"

"I am a human, just a special kind of human, and I really didn't take your treasure."

"I see. No wonder you were able to steal my treasure. You are indeed quite capable, human."

Then, as expected, Ishtar once again displayed Toosaka Rin's ancestral characteristic of being unable to keep up with the times, and selectively ignored Xia Yuan's very important explanation.

"…Are you selectively deaf? You can't hear anything important?"

Seeing that Istar once again ignored his explanation, Xia Yuan was speechless and couldn't help but complain.

"Where are you from Aqua?!"

"Aqua? What does that mean?"

Ishtar looked a little confused about the name, and obviously didn't know who Aqua was.

"Haha, so Aqua actually means idiot~"

As an old otaku who had watched many anime series in Utopia, Merlin certainly knew this interesting knowledge, so he very considerately added a sentence to help Istar.

"Idiot? How dare you insult me?! Human! Apart from that damn Kinpicka, you are the first human who dares to scold me in front of me!!"

Istar, who was obviously a little mentally unstable, had an angry look on her face. She waved her jade hand, and the Bow of Heaven, Maanna, which was suspended in the sky, immediately glided down and floated quietly beside her.

Chapter 187: Why fight alone when you can fight in a group? (Updated)

"How dare you, you daring human, call me a fool? I will definitely punish you severely!!"

The pupils of Istar in front of him had turned golden, and the Heavenly Bow Maanna that was floating behind him suddenly opened and aimed at Xia Yuan in front of him.

Judging from her expression, she was very angry at the moment.

"..."

After the conversation just now, Xia Yuan has deeply realized that this woman's brain seems to be really sick as Gilgamesh said.

She is even more Aqua than Aqua. It is obviously impossible to convince her with simple words.

The other party's posture of summoning Anna, the Archer of Heaven, clearly showed that he was not going to continue the conversation with him patiently.

Seeing that the other party was about to take action first, he decisively chose to give up the communication, looked at Karna behind him, and nodded slightly.
