622: Ishtar and her little followers
"Huh—! You...you know?!"
Ishtar instinctively took a step back, surprised and guilty.
Logically speaking, Sidulli is her believer. Although she served Gilgamesh as a chief priest, like yesterday, she should not have any harm to Uruk.
As for the other soldiers, they believed in her more or less.
That is to say...
Ishtar's eyes slowly turned to a white-haired magician.
"Damn it, it's you, the half-dream demon, right?! You clearly said... the guy who doesn't keep your promises and lies. Sure enough, what kind of king is like, the ministers around you are like!" Ishtar accused indignantly.
Merlin smiled bitterly and did not explain.
The conscience of heaven and earth, he has caused enough trouble. Then he will offend a goddess because of a small matter. You must know that Gods are all unreasonable existences, and goddesses are the best among them.
——Ishtar was angry. Even if he explained it now, he would only end up burning his body, right?
At this moment, Meilin hid behind the stone pillars and lowered his presence.
On the other side, Gilgamesh was very upset.
"What? Goddess Ishtar, has fallen to the point where he dare not admit what he has done? I heard that the name of the goddess is crying."
"I...hum! I did it, so why didn't I dare to accept it? I really think I'm afraid you won't do it?" Ishtar said with confidence, while turning his face away.
Gilgamesh's eyes twitched.
Yesterday, after Gilgamesh's soul was dragged into the underworld, Ishtar received news from somewhere, and happily took over Uruk, and a national mourning (celebration). He preached everywhere such as "The tyrant has finally received retribution. People of Uruk, your goddess is back!" and other remarks, and to Gilgamesh's 'body'...
Gilgamesh suspected that if Sidulli had not stopped him, his body would have been cremated and he would not have been able to return from the underworld and his ashes would have been raised.
"So, do you think that after this king dies, Uruk will really become your property?" Gilgamesh raised his brow, and his eyes lit up with a scarlet light due to the surging magic.
"Then...what do you want to do?!" Ishtar, who was already in a disadvantage, took a weak step back.
She looked around the inside of the divine tower, surrounding her, four people emitting strong aura, among which Meilin, who was smiling, and Altaire, who was staring at You Baihua, drooling, all brought her a strong sense of crisis.
It’s not as simple as threatening the goddess, but it can be easily erased.
With such a lineup, plus Gilgamesh, if the other party has bad intentions, Ishtar will definitely stay here today.
At this point, Ishtar's throat moved instinctively.
"Well, you don't have to be nervous. I know the things you did yesterday, let alone the old village chief, even I know. So don't look at him being very angry, I'm probably thinking about how to use this as a threat to tie you to Uruk's chariot." You Baihua comforted her indifferent voice, not realizing that she was in 'danger' at all.
In his opinion, although the gods are not omniscient and omnipotent, they are not easily fooled.
Therefore, it is better to deal with gods with sincerity. At least in a certain way, gods are more pure than humans (silly). As long as you sort out the interests and even if you don’t deliberately ask for them, gods will still stand on the side that is beneficial to them.
Gilgamesh's actions may not necessarily touch the so-called "self-esteem" of the gods, but it will easily lead to a collapse in conversation.
“·······”
Gilgamesh was silent for a while, then he asked without changing his face: "Goddess, Ishtar! Although I am unwilling to admit it, you are also the patron saint of Uruk. You have evaded the obligation to protect Uruk for a long time. I did that behavior yesterday. Do you still want to be responsible for it?"
"Do you guy think I'm stupid? This kid... My believers said just now, thinking I'll be fooled?" Ishtar smiled disdainfully, hugged You Baihua, and began to retreat without moving: "I will never go back to Uruk until you restore my sacrifice and apologize to me in front of all Uruk!"
You Baihua: "???"
Wait, who is your believer?
Looking at Ishtar's nervous little movements, everyone disagreed. Three champion casters present, plus one who could chase Ereshkigala in the underworld and forced him to fight back, just Ishtar, what if he was nervous?
Can she really jump to the underworld or can she turn everyone into a shark?
Could it be that she can still abduct and sell You Baihua?
joke!
Then······
"Maanna!"
Then, they saw the huge bowed sky boat swimming quickly with the call of its owner, taking Ishtar to the sky at an astonishing speed.
"Oh~! Do you think I'm the kind of brainless goddess who can't see the situation clearly? It's too naive, little fools." As he said this, Ishtar glared at Gilgamesh fiercely again: "Bad bastard, you'd better go to the underworld quickly, and then I'll take over Uruk."
The sound fell, and the goddess turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the sky.
Its posture of soaring freely in the sky is worthy of the name of the mistress of the sky.
By the way, Half Fruit King?
Ishtar is qualified to say King Gilgamesh? Your exposure is even more good!
Fujimaru Rika thought silently in her heart.
Immediately, I glanced into the hall and suddenly felt something was missing.
"Strange, what's missing?"
"Woo~No, senior."
Altaire, whose eyes had never left, looked at the sky with a slightly dull face, and still a little unbelievable.
"I was taken away by...."
"Yeah, I've been taken away." Anna responded softly.
"Huh? Huh, Huh!! Really? Bai Hua was really abducted and trafficked? My general was abducted and trafficked? Was that goddess?" For a moment, Altaire was a little at a loss.
It seems that it is not necessary to save it. Even if it is downgraded to a servant, Bai Hua is not bound by a goddess. It is not certain that when the rescue team has passed, Ishtar has already hung up and beaten. He said he will not save it, just watching his main god be abducted and trafficked is not very good in all senses.
"So, whether to save it or not?"
"Idiot! Of course I will save you! That's the handsome man I like. I don't know how many days the curse can last. If it is a curse that Bai Hua self-broken, that king... the bastard dares to reach out to my treasure!" Gilgamesh gritted his teeth, his face full of resentment.
Bai Hua was in a young state, all of which were cursed by the Seventh Gate, and the special way of recording his own divine nature. Even Ereshkigale could not be relieved, and he could only expel the power of the curse bit by bit by bit by bit.
It was originally expected that it would take several days to complete, and Gilgamesh also planned that it was rare to be the best boy that suited his taste. He had to eat it in a few days.
Now... I really saw the ghost. I can still maintain the state of a handsome man for a long time after I rescued him. I am so thankful, bastard!
"Bastard, that's my grandmother!" Altaire argued that only this one would not give in.
So, the Tower of God was released, today's second round of quarrels (physics).
Chapter completed!
