[There are a thousand and one ways to appreciate beauty, but there are also things that are absolutely the most beautiful.]

[Ereshkigal and Ishtar, who is the most beautiful?]

Though it should have been cold and mechanical, it was filled with unease at this moment.

Just by listening to the voice, one could imagine a little girl hiding behind a door, nervously waiting for an answer.

The group watching the video was dumbfounded—

"This... is too cute!"

"Damn it, my favorite Goddess, acting like this in front of others!"

"Nameless, you truly are a sinful man!"

"Ereshkigal's speed of giving herself away is on par with her sister's uselessness!"

She should have been the terrifying ruler of the Underworld.

Yet, she surrendered instantly upon their first meeting.

Nameless walked towards her, and the Goddess promptly fled.

On their second meeting, she put on this adorable act again, so cute it was impossible not to chuckle.

Upon hearing the question, Nameless smiled and replied, "Of course, the most beautiful is the adorable Ereshkigal, who is gentle, virtuous, considerate, and understanding!"

A direct hit!

The Ereshkigal-class ship was sunk in one wave!

Rumble~

The door opened, but it wasn't the seven doors they had imagined.

As soon as the first door opened, they saw the ruler of the Underworld!

Uruk.

Gilgamesh, who was watching the video, laughed heartily: "Nameless, you truly are a menace!"

Earlier, King Arthur announced her departure to the Dragon Country, Fusang, precisely to find him.

Now, [Alaya] has exposed the matter between Nameless and Ereshkigal, is this pouring oil on the fire?

Interesting!

Truly interesting!

Gilgamesh grew more and more expectant, wondering what kind of trouble that scoundrel would encounter this time.

He had been deceived so badly back then.

He truly believed that person and Enkidu had both left forever, never to be seen again.

Carrying endless sorrow, he could only force it down and bear it alone in silence.

This torment must be repaid with an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, and doubled!

The young girl, dressed in a magnificent ceremonial outfit, asked with a blush on her face, "Why do you say it so smoothly? How many people have you said this to?"

"This is the first time."

Nameless replied earnestly.

Then.

He pointed to the golden chain mark on his hand, "Ereshkigal, please help me preserve a trace of Little En's origin, otherwise, He will completely disappear."

"Hmph, I am the ruler of the Underworld. I only bring death, not new life! Why should I help you?" Ereshkigal deliberately turned her head away haughtily.

This guy had insisted on praising her extravagantly in front of her sister and Gilgamesh earlier.

After being alone for so many years, it was the first time someone had praised her like that, and she couldn't handle it at all.

From then on, she secretly watched him every day, only to find that he never once thought of coming to find her.

But it was normal.

Only death would come—

I'll forgive you, barely!

"Because you are kind and cute."

Nameless replied righteously.

"You!"

Ereshkigal's face instantly flushed red, and she quickly used her authority to cover it up, "In the name of Ereshkigal, I grant the Enkidu new life!"

A powerful and surging fluctuation flowed, landing on the golden chain.

The Enkidu, which was about to completely dissipate, finally stopped its decay and disappearance.

Nameless breathed a slight sigh of relief.

His origin had been stripped away by the gods earlier, and then severed by the Calamity Sword, effectively cutting off Enkidu's existence.

which makes it impossible for it to descend in the form of a Heroic Spirit in modern times.

Now, with the Underworld Goddess, who wields death, personally intervening, its future has finally been granted.

Ereshkigal let out a soft hum, "Don't get too happy just yet. While you severed the connection between the gods of the Heavenly Realm and the human world, you also awakened another existence."

A phantom screen appeared before Nameless.

In a vast ocean, a terrifying being of unimaginable power lay quietly.

It slowly opened its eyes and let out a strange sound: "Aaaaaa..."

Just looking at it was like seeing the origin of life, returning to the womb of the mother at the dawn of humanity.

It was a wondrous, special feeling.

Difficult to describe accurately in words.

Its pair of purplish-red eyes were filled with maternal radiance.

Like a gentle mother gazing at her mischievous child.

However.

Within the ocean beside it, an endless amount of black-redness was brewing.

As if the entire ocean had been dyed red with blood, so red it was almost black, wanting to destroy everything.

"Tiamat, the primordial mother goddess of Sumerian mythology, who possesses the principle of [Return], the second Beast of the Seven Human Evils."

Nameless immediately revealed its identity, "She can be called the mother of humanity in the entire Sumerian world, and you can call her Tiamat!"

This string of titles left all the viewers utterly bewildered--

[What are Human Evils? Are there seven Human Evils? Who else is there besides Tiamat?]

[The mother of humanity in the Sumerian world? No wonder she feels so maternal, making one want to throw themselves into her embrace!]

[Does Tiamat want a child who is 1 year and 200 months old?!]

[Heh, the person upstairs, are you really trying to be a baby? You're clearly lusting after Tiamat's body, how base!]

[Hmph, Tiamat is the cutest in the world, not some ferocious Human Evil at all. Unified likes!]

These people truly didn't understand the meaning of Human Evil!

Wei Gong watched the crowd enjoying the spectacle, feeling an immense sense of dissonance.

Human Evils were beasts that sought to destroy humanity.

If it weren't for his repeated battles and the sacrifices of countless Heroic Spirits, there would have been no hope of victory.

"It is not weakness and ignorance that destroy humanity, but arrogance!"

Wei Gong sighed softly in his heart.

The less one understands, the easier it is to be complacent, completely unaware of the vastness of the world.

In the video.

After Ereshkigal displayed the power of the mother goddess, she looked at Nameless with a hint of surprise, "You know her?"

Back then, the mother goddess was banished to the void, leaving no trace in human history.

The gods regarded her as a grave threat, fearing she would destroy them upon her return, and kept her under strict watch.

Now, Nameless had severed the chains between the Heavenly Realm and the human world with the Calamity Sword, causing the gods to lose their control over the mother goddess.

This was what allowed the mother goddess to reawaken and break free from the confinement of the void prison.

"I know many things, far more than you can imagine," Nameless replied with a smile.

"Hmph, a mere mortal, daring to be so presumptuous before us gods!"

Ereshkigal couldn't help but let out a soft snort.

This guy showed no fear of her at all.

Yet, it inexplicably filled her with immense joy.

Nameless wrapped the slightly revived golden chains around his wrist, then continued his request, "Also, please trouble yourself to preserve the origin of another person's soul."

"Damn it, you're going too far... This is the last time!"

Ereshkigal stomped her foot lightly, but she still didn't refuse him.

This cute demeanor instantly stunned countless viewers even further--

[Good heavens, is this really the terrifying, despairing, and death-wielding mistress of the Underworld?]

[So cute, AWSL!]

[It's over, even the Goddess can't resist Nameless's charm and immediately surrendered!]

[The last time... The very last time... Damn it, just when I was feeling good, are you impotent now?]

[Shit, I feel like the guy upstairs just ran me over with a truck!]

Tohsaka Rin stared at the screen, looking a bit dazed.

The powerful Underworld Goddess, who looked exactly like Ishtar, meaning she looked exactly like her.

After Teacher Hiratsuka publicly screened it, all her classmates were secretly sizing her up!

Needless to say, Tohsaka Rin knew this group of people would definitely imagine her striking the same pose.

Damn it!

Was this considered public execution?

Tohsaka Rin tried her best to remain calm, but her cheeks still felt burning hot.

She secretly glanced at Wei Gong, who was sitting by the window, out of the corner of her eye.

The more she looked, the more she felt an inexplicable resemblance to Nameless.

When she thought about the other person's figure appearing again and again in her dreams, and Ereshkigal's shy posture towards Nameless in the video.

Tohsaka Rin found it increasingly difficult to look directly at him.

Damn it, it was all [Alaya]'s fault!

Continue watching the video.

That Nameless Heroic Spirit, who walked through human history, after handling many matters, suddenly reached out as if wanting to touch the other person.

But for some reason, he pulled back.

He let out a soft sigh: "I'm sorry, I am merely a passerby walking through human history. I cannot form bonds, only increasing loneliness. I am truly sorry."
