You Can Drive on This Crappy Road Too?
"Hooray! The divinity of the Gorgon has dropped by less than half!"
"The Temple of Blood is also paralyzed. Let's see what else she can do now!"
"Hmph, I told you not to anger felines!"
The Jaguar Man swatted the last Uridimmu "premature baby" to death, and was very pleased with himself.
As the smoke cleared, Ishtar, who had the advantage of air support, landed beside Merlin with a sigh of relief, holding Anna, who was bleeding from the mouth.
Operation successful!
The succubus's lips curled slightly as she exchanged a nod with the two goddesses beside her.
Anna was, after all, just Young Goddess Form, and being so concerned, she didn't notice Merlin's frantic glances as he cast his illusion.
For this master swindler, having already fooled the Kingu, tricking the Gorgon was a piece of cake.
Previously, almost at the same time that the Beast Goddess was focusing all her attention on those "figures," Samael, who noticed the magical fluctuations on the surface of the body, hit it off with the old swindler.
The serpent of lies immediately transformed into a slender body and, under the cover of illusion, burrowed into Gorgon's healing chest wound.
Then, through his perception of that Origin Divinity, he drilled and explored through flesh and blood until he found the divine core of the Beast Goddess.
Because of the gift from the goddess Tiamat, Samael quickly stripped away and extracted the divinity belonging to his own Mother Goddess.
The Beast Goddess, Zhiyi, who sensed something was wrong, cruelly mutilated herself, forcing him to relinquish the portion of divine power that belonged to Gorgon.
However, the path to escape from the Gorgon's body was too dark, too slippery, and prone to bumps and falls.
Samael said he was almost knocked unconscious by the swaying mountain peaks that were hitting him from the left and right.
"Bang!"
After suffering a series of devastating blows, including the stripping away of her immortality and the theft of her divinity, the Beast Goddess, bleeding profusely from her chest, leaned forward and collapsed to the ground with a thud.
Meanwhile, Samael followed the goddess's smooth abdomen, all the way to her navel, and finally jumped to the ground, climbing onto Anna's shoulder.
"Good boy/girl..."
"It's alright, it's all over now."
The ancient snake's raised tail tip stroked the little girl's head, soothing her still-shaken heart.
Anna hugged Samael tightly, her face tense, tears welling up in her eyes, which she held back with great effort, preventing them from falling on the spot.
"Why did you betray this will! Why did you stop me!"
"Why!"
Gorgon plunged its claws into the ground, looked at its former self, and roared in anger.
At this moment, the cracks on her body had spread to the point of being irreparable, and the divine power within her body surged outwards through these fragmented gaps.
Before long, this Beast Goddess, whose foundation for existence has been lost, will completely collapse.
"Gorgon, your revenge should not have left that deserted island..."
"By venting your hatred on the innocent, haven't you already become a demon, just as those heroes said?"
Anna brushed aside the fingers of the crowd trying to stop her, cradled Samael in her arms, and slowly stepped forward, facing her future self, earnestly confronting the anger.
Monster? I'm the monster?!
Without Tiamat ability to interfere, all sorts of past events surfaced in Gorgon's mind. Her purplish-red Serpent Eyes narrowed and shriveled as she looked down at her own scaly claws.
The surface seemed to be stained with the lingering smell of blood, and the wails of the spirits could be heard between the fingers.
Immediately, the Beast Goddess shook her head angrily, her gaze turning ferocious.
"No! I am a goddess! I always will be!"
"Humans deserve to die!"
Anna looked at the now powerless Beast Goddess, pulled up her hood, and sighed softly.
"Gorgon, stop struggling, give up."
"This meaningless hatred will fade away with your passing."
However, Gorgon, refused to listen to any advice.
Even if these come from my younger self.
"Impossible!"
You'll end up like me sooner or later!
Amidst a hysterical roar, a hint of madness appeared in the eyes of the Beast Goddess, and she angrily swung down with both claws.
I want you to become me sooner or later!
In an instant, Gorgon's massive body disintegrated, and crimson magic, transformed into a torrent of blood, rushed into Anna's body with lightning speed.
Immediately, the aura of the Young Goddess Form rose steadily, and a violent current of energy spread outwards.
Are you coming again?
Upon noticing the familiar divine reaction from the others, their expressions immediately changed, and they became alert and on guard.
However, just as this momentum reached its peak, it vanished without a trace, like a popped soap bubble.
"Gorgon, I'm sorry to disappoint you, we are not the same..."
Anna lowered her head and whispered softly.
Then, the little girl turned around, looked gently at the people behind her, and whispered softly in a voice only she could hear.
"This world is different from Greece..."
"I like it here, I like everyone..."
Looking into her pure eyes, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and smiled indulgently.
However, the tender moment did not last long. The dome of the Temple of Blood exploded, and a golden figure descended from the sky.
"Mother! Mother!"
Kingu, whose body was covered with marks from being carved and sculpted, could only sense the residual magic around him when he called out urgently.
The monster commander, who witnessed Gorgon's death through the vibrations, turned to look at the crowd with a furious expression, his face icy cold.
"You... you're asking for it!"
"Hang in there! Once King Gilgamesh arrives, we'll win!"
Samael's body swelled up to make it easier for the Lion-headed Storm Demon Ugallu to move around, and he didn't forget to turn his head to remind him.
"Win?"
"Ha ha..."
However, Kingu, who was suspended in mid-air opposite him, covered one cheek with one hand and lowered his head, letting out a mocking laugh.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Fools, you've missed your chance!"
"As a farewell gift to our Mother, let you witness the true form of us, the Primordial God, even in your death!"
In an instant, the demonic beast commander fell forward, pressing one hand to the ground. The light transmitted through the Holy Grail rippled outwards, and the Abyssal Layers behind him pulsed with immense power.
Immediately, the boiling blood pool surged with towering waves, and streams of red and black torrents shot up from the abyss!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the instant the blood tide overflowed in all directions, the entire Temple of Blood gradually collapsed, and spiderweb-like cracks spread in all directions.
Seeing the soil beneath their feet sinking, everyone immediately turned back and retreated swiftly to safety.
The collapse of the ground near the edge of the Fir Forest had barely stopped its aftershocks.
"Lord Yuchi, bring down the judgment!"
"Let humanity, let the gods, meet their demise!"
Hahahaha!
Kingu hovered above the enormous abyss, half-hiding his face and laughing wildly. One of his eyes, gazing at the sky, flickered with madness.
Lord Yuuki? The Primordial God?
In Sumerian Mythology, Apsu represents sweet water!
Could this be what they're really trying to awaken?!
The crowd's expressions changed drastically as they recalled the various unusual events that had occurred in the past.
"Laugh!"
However, before they could react, a black thorn shot out from the abyss with lightning speed and pierced through Kingu's chest.
"Lord Tsukin... you..."
The Warcraft commander stared blankly at the abyss beneath his feet, where a huge shadow had appeared, his face filled with disbelief.
"Puff!"
Immediately, the black thorns lashed out, their ends curling around the Holy Grail forged from a high-purity magic block.
Kingu's broken body was tossed aside like a worn-out rag doll.
At the same time, the red and black abyssal water surged forth, and a gigantic maw, stretching for hundreds of miles, covered with sharp teeth and shaped like Dragon Beast, opened at the landing point of this demonic beast commander.
Obviously, when eating rice, they ate it!
