Type-Moon, the Path of a Magician

"Okay, Master, now that the old man's aura of death is gone, I can accurately detect the location of the underworld."

Wang Hassan's departure also took away the breath of death that could interfere with the smoke mirror's judgment of direction.

He twitched his nose slightly, and like a leopard with a keen sense of smell, he easily found the exact location of the Mesopotamian underworld, and then brought Xia Yuan to the ground where the entrance to the underworld was.

In response to this, Xia Yuan also performed detection magic and confirmed that there was indeed an underworld below.

Then, when he raised his arm to blast the ground above Hades, a very familiar shout suddenly came from the sky...

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!! The guy below! My Ma Anna can't stop the car again!!"

……

……

PY: I'd like to recommend a new and quite good Type-Moon book, Seedling, which tells the story of Uncle B. The idea is very interesting and you can check it out.

One of the few Type-Moon new book seedlings.

Chapter 223 Come be my husband!!

"I have a bad feeling..."

"Did you hear anything, Berserker?"

Xia Yuan looked at the smoke mirror and asked.

"…Maybe I heard some noise, as if something was approaching."

"?!!"

In the wasteland where the entrance to the underworld is located, Yanwujing and Xia Yuan heard a sudden sound of breaking air in the sky, and an indescribable scream, but to Xia Yuan this sound seemed a little too familiar.

He slowly raised his head, his ice-blue eyes flickering slightly, reflecting the figure of Ishtar on Mayanna.

However, in this state, she seemed to have fallen from the sky, just like the last time they met. And this time, she was still carrying the Sky Bow, and Ma Anna fell down rapidly together.

Is this trash goddess speeding again?

"Ishtar?"

Xia Yuan called out the name of the owner of the voice.

"Oh? Mesopotamia, the famous goddess of waste?"

This momentum and aura is like a meteor falling at high speed. It would definitely hurt if you were hit by it...

The two looked at each other, neither of them had the idea of ​​going up to catch Ishtar, but when Ishtar's power hit them, they took a step back slightly.

boom--! ! !

There was a loud noise like a meteorite hitting the earth, and the entire ground beneath our feet was suddenly covered with dust under the impact of Ishtar.

Then, a huge black pit suddenly appeared on the ground beneath their feet, and Ishtar and Maana disappeared from their surroundings. Yanmiaojing and Xia Yuan fell into a brief silence.

"I fell in..."

"Well, he actually fell in."

That useless goddess actually fell into the underworld in this way right in front of them.

It’s just that this nonsensical way of opening the door looks a bit stupid.

"Open, Gate of Hades!!"

Although they didn't know what Ishtar wanted to do by entering the underworld, now that someone was helping them open the door to the underworld, Xia Yuan and Yanwujing did not hesitate. They immediately raised their arms, gathered a ball of white magic power, and smashed it hard on the ground.

Boom——! ! !

With a loud bang, the big pit on the ground expanded several times in an instant, and a deep, dark, bottomless abyss appeared in front of them. The unique breath of the underworld emanated from the darkness. Then Smoke Mirror pulled Xia Yuan up and jumped down towards the crack below.

"I have to say that the goddess who came from the sky really helped us a lot. She actually ate up most of the defense restrictions outside the underworld for us."

"She is incredibly brave to break into the underworld so recklessly."

While lamenting Ishtar's recklessness, Smoke Mirror and Xia Yuan continued to fall into the dark abyss. In the blink of an eye, the two of them had reached the bottom of the underworld and stood on a dark ground.

"Oh? Is this the underworld of Mesopotamia? It's really simple..."

Smoke Mirror looked around at the dark environment with a strange expression.

In the Age of Gods, the entire world was like a canvas. The underworld, the human world, and the heavenly world were all isolated from each other, yet connected to each other.

The heaven is really in the sky, and the underworld exists under their feet. As long as they reach a high enough mountain, they can reach the temple of God. As long as they smash the ground at the right location, they can also reach the underworld like now.

Unlike his own underworld, what appeared before his eyes were dark paths made of black mud slabs. They were suspended above the abyss, and dim green flames floated on the roads, like street lights guiding the direction.

But the Smoke Mirror could sense that these dark green underworld fires were actually the flames of the human soul.

According to common sense, they should be beating and shouting, but the soul flames of the underworld here are like asleep. Under the restraint of the underworld god, they stay in their own area, floating and sleeping quietly, and will not actively communicate with the living, or launch attacks.

Give the dead rest?

This management method seemed a little too gentle, but it was indeed a quiet and peaceful place to return to, and he didn't hate it.

On the contrary, he was more interested in Ereshkigal, the mistress of the underworld who managed this place.

"Hello, long time no see, Miss Ishtar, do you need any help?"

When the Smoke Mirror was sighing about the underworld, Xia Yuan, who had landed, had already found Ishtar who had fallen directly into the underworld.

However, her current condition did not look very good. She was holding on to the narrow road in front of her with her smooth arms, and her whole body was hanging in the air like a sunny doll. Under her feet was a bottomless dark abyss, which was a forbidden land beyond the depths of the underworld and a forbidden zone that even the Sumerian gods feared.

If you fall, the end will definitely be more painful than death.

Now that the gods Enki and Anu have left this land, there is really no one who will save her.

Ishtar grasped the ground tightly with both hands and shook her body vigorously. However, due to the no-fly ban in the underworld, her favorite treasure, Heavenly Bow Horse Anna, could not fly over to save her. Her divine power was also greatly weakened by entering the underworld. At this moment, she did not have enough strength to climb up. She could only grit her teeth and hang there, shouting for help.

“Ahh! Help! Is there anyone who can save me? Even if they are not human!!”

This look of snot and tears does not resemble that of a goddess at all.

Even the god Yanmiaojing standing nearby could not help but cover his eyes, unable to bear to watch.

How could there be such a stupid goddess? Did the gods of Mesopotamia protect her too well?

"help?!"

Ishtar, who had been holding on for a long time, suddenly heard a voice coming from above her head. She immediately stopped sobbing, her expression changed from sadness to joy, and she nodded and replied quickly: "Yes, yes, I am the mistress of the sky who controls beauty and wealth, the goddess of Venus, Ishtar. Pull me up quickly, you mortal, and I will reward you for rescuing the goddess later!!"

"Reward? Didn't you say you wanted me to lick the back of your feet the next time we meet?"

Xia Yuan squatted down and looked at Ishtar with a teasing expression.

"Eh?! This familiar voice, could it be you are..."

Hearing this answer, Ishtar widened her beautiful eyes like rubies and looked up quickly. Then she saw Xia Yuan's ugly face again, which she had just seen not long ago.

"No way!! How come you are in the underworld!!"

Ishtar looked at Xia Yuan in disbelief, then opened her mouth wide: "You, a wicked mortal, have you really been following me?! How abominable! Have you really been mesmerized by the beauty of this goddess when we met last time? That's why you showed up at this moment, trying to win my favor by acting like a hero saving a beauty, that must be the case!!"

Xia Yuan: ""..."

Smoky Mirror gave a thumbs up: "Six."

"..."

Xia Yuan was so shocked by the train of thought of this Pushin goddess that he didn't want to talk anymore, while Smoke Mirror laughed like Kaz and was completely speechless.

While laughing, he did not forget to put his arm around Xia Yuan's shoulders and teased, "Master, you are really amazing. You actually planned so much to get this goddess? Obviously, Quetzal is quite interested in you. You chased two main god-level subordinate goddesses at once. Be careful of retribution. When you die one day, come to my underworld, and I will give you a good position then."

"I'm not interested in fools..."

Xia Yuan slapped the arm that was holding the smoke mirror and said helplessly.

"I would rather marry Ereshkigal than marry this stupid goddess."

"Hahahaha... Are you interested in the goddess of the underworld? Master, you really surprise me!"

"Why do you look like the Count..."

Xia Yuan looked somewhat helpless, and didn't want to continue chatting with this pleasure criminal.

Then he leaned over and looked down at Ishtar, who was still indulging in her own fantasy and shouting, and even looked at herself seriously, and finally her cheeks turned slightly red, and his mood became even more complicated.

You're blushing like a bubble teapot...

Then he turned around and left with the smoke mirror.

"..."

"Hey! Stop right there!" Ishtar was horrified and shouted at Xia Yuan.

"Pull me up quickly, human!!"

But Xia Yuan was too lazy to pay attention to this Goddess Pu Xin and chose to go directly to the hostess of this place.

I wanted to see how Ishtar was doing, but after her nonsense, I didn't want to continue the conversation. If I continued to accompany her here, I would probably want to pursue Ishtar. In addition, the relationship between Ereshkigal and Ishtar was extremely bad. If I helped Ishtar, it might cause her to be disgusted. That would be a loss.

“Hey, hey, hey!! Come back, pull me up quickly!! What on earth are you doing here!!”

Ishtar's roar came from behind, but Xia Yuan just replied calmly: "Anyway, I didn't come here to save you."

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--!!!"

At this moment, Ishtar was completely furious.

She started screaming in the underworld without any image. She was actually abandoned by a mortal without even looking back.

When has she ever suffered such injustice?

Born to be favored and spoiled by the gods in heaven, she is the freest, most beautiful and arrogant goddess in Mesopotamia. She is a goddess who can do whatever she wants and achieve everything. She destroyed Mount Ebifu, a sacred peak that even the king of gods had to respect, just because she was unhappy. She sent the divine beast, the Bull of Heaven, to destroy Uruk because she was angry with Gilgamesh.

Whatever she wants will be satisfied, and having everything to her heart's content is her privilege, because she has behind her the father god who loves her, the grandfather Enki who dotes on her, and her brother Shamash who, although he doesn't get along with her, will definitely show up in time when there is danger.

But this experience has completely awakened her. No one except the gods will pamper you and let you do whatever you want. No one will indulge you and obey your orders.

Thinking that she might really have to hang here for an unknown amount of time, Ishtar became more and more agitated.

This is the underworld, and the only people who appear here are either undead or skeletons. God knows when the next living person will appear after Xia Yuan is gone. Maybe she will be hanging here for hundreds of years.

"Hey! Human, no, warrior. Come back soon. I won't accept your kindness in vain. When you save me, I will give you the most precious reward. How about it? It is a treasure that all gods desire!!"

"treasure……"

Hearing this answer, Xia Yuan paused slightly.

The Smoky Mirror also became interested in the treasure that Ishtar mentioned that all the gods desired.

"tell me the story."

"Hehehe, you are finally shaken."

Seeing that Xia Yuan really stopped, Ishtar's eyes suddenly lit up, and then she immediately turned over her biggest trump card. She believed that once this trump card was played, no god or human in the world could refuse it.

I only heard her shouting confidently: "That is to become my husband! I promise you, even though you are a human being with an ordinary appearance and are not worthy of me, the goddess of love, beauty and harvest, but I still agree. As long as you rescue me, I will be your wife and share my beauty and wealth with you."

Mad, Aqua...

Xia Yuan and Yanwu Jing looked at each other, then shook their heads slightly, turned around and continued to leave.

"Ah! Come back, come back soon... I'm already like this, what else do you want..."

"Help... I was wrong. I will never act so willfully again. Please save me..."

Seeing the figure disappear completely, two lines of clear tears flowed down Ishtar's cheeks, and she kept muttering "I'm sorry" and crying for help as she was about to die.

Then, when she was almost in despair, a broad hand suddenly grasped her arm, and then a huge force lifted Ishtar up and threw her directly into his arms.

"Really... Stop that commanding tone and try asking others for help or requesting help."

"Do you understand now?"

Of course, Xia Yuan would not argue with a stupid goddess like Ishtar. His previous actions were just because he was unhappy with Ishtar, who was the one asking for help but acted superior. He just wanted to teach her a lesson about what happened last time.

Now that he saw that this willful mistress of heaven was actually apologizing and reflecting on herself seriously, his goal was achieved, so he turned back and rescued her when she wasn't paying attention.

Ishtar, leaning in Xia Yuan's arms, stared at his serious face in a daze. This time, she did not show her domineering personality traits. She just nodded slightly and agreed softly.

"Yeah... I get it. I'm sorry. I won't do it again next time."

"I'll trust you for once, but don't be so willful next time."

"Okay, Ishtar, you're a grown-up girl now. It's not a good idea to always be held by others. Now that you're out of trouble, you can go back by yourself. I have something important to do next, so I won't stay any longer."
