Throughout this process, it seemed that some terrifying existence beyond even her imagination was watching.

Just as she was thinking about finding the rude bastard who dared call her a "monkey," Ishtar, her anger boiling over, followed the passage without hesitation and arrived in the future.

With one step, space and time shifted.

Ishtar discovered that she had arrived in an utterly wondrous world.

A world where humans were the absolute rulers!

Even more terrifyingly, humans could actually watch her conversation with Ereshkigal, possessing a mysterious and powerful ability far beyond her imagination.

Thus, Ishtar decided to hide her identity and spend a little more time observing.

Someone who looked vaguely familiar and was secretly watching her instantly caught her attention.

It was different from the admiration and affection shown by other people.

This person's reaction leaned more toward shock and disbelief.

Could he have recognized my identity?

Ishtar followed him without hesitation, wanting to see whether he had truly noticed her identity.

And why he seemed so familiar to her!

"Miss Rin, why would I hide from you?" Wei Gong asked, slightly surprised.

This useless goddess seems to have extraordinarily sharp observation skills.

He simply turned the tables. "Why do you seem so strange today? It's as if you've become a different person."

"You really did notice!"

Ishtar's divine aura poured out without restraint as she tried to see exactly what the person before her was.

"Hey, hey, how can you have no honor? Why did you suddenly ambush this seventeen-year-old boy?"

Wei Gong instantly felt utterly speechless.

As expected of you. You really can't be judged by common sense!

Under normal circumstances, shouldn't she have explained herself first? Why had she attacked without the slightest hesitation?

Under the pressure of her divine might, Wei Gong found it extremely difficult even to remain standing.

If she really caught him, he would definitely be tortured and toyed with in all sorts of ways!

The rooftop door was pushed open once again.

A little head poked in. "Wei Gong?"

Luo Ya had arrived!

After receiving the call, she had rushed over immediately, wanting to know what he was planning to do.

However,

when she reached the rooftop, she discovered that there was another person there.

It was none other than Tohsaka Rin, the immensely popular young lady at the academy!

Luo Ya instantly felt as if she were missing a yandere ending in her hand!

Good grief, are you really trying to imitate Makoto?

Luo Ya couldn't help saying angrily, "Do you really have to find both an older and a younger girl at the same time? Am I alone not enough to satisfy your desires?"

"Stop her! She's trying to take advantage of me!" Wei Gong shouted without hesitation.

"Huh?"

Luo Ya was even more bewildered.

Who exactly was the victim here?

"Hahaha, a mere mortal thinks she can stop me?"

Ishtar felt as if she had just heard the greatest joke in the world.

What a joke. She was a goddess! She could do whatever she wanted. Who could stop—

Who exactly is this girl?

Ishtar's eyes widened instantly. She could hardly believe what her divine senses were telling her.

How could this little blonde girl with twin tails possess an aura on the same level as the Mother Goddess, one filled with a brutality capable of destroying everything?

"Who exactly are you?"

Ishtar was filled with wariness and vigilance.

She clearly looked like an ordinary little blonde girl with twin tails, so why did she give Ishtar such an immense sense of oppression?

The moment she stood there, it was as if countless Timelines and the wails and terror of countless worlds were circling around her.

Endless disasters surrounded her, making her the source of all evil.

Ordinary people could never detect this aura.

Even Ishtar had only been able to sense it immediately because she had stayed beside the Mother Goddess Tiamat for such a long time.

It was too terrifying!

So terrifying that even her divine origin trembled in fear!

"Hmph. What exactly are you trying to do?" Luo Ya snorted coldly.

She had long been annoyed by this woman who was clearly poor yet insisted on pretending to be an aristocratic young lady.

And now this woman had actually dared to block Wei Gong on the rooftop. This was utterly ridiculous.

It was autumn, not spring, when every living thing was in heat!

Luo Ya walked over without hesitation.

She stepped between Ishtar and Wei Gong.

During the process, she felt wind constantly blowing against her.

There was also a very special smell.

She couldn't help giving a light hum. "The stench of a witch!"

"You!"

Ishtar ground her teeth in fury.

Strangely, the terrifying aura from earlier vanished in a flash like an illusion.

The little blonde girl with twin tails before her was still in an ordinary human state.

What exactly is going on?

While Ishtar was puzzled, Wei Gong reached out, grabbed Luo Ya by her golden twin tails, and pulled her to his side.

"Hey, hey, don't pull my hair!"

The brat immediately pouted and complained furiously.

Wei Gong bent down and whispered into her ear, "Let me borrow your body for a moment."

"Huh? Borrow what?"

Luo Ya felt a tickle in her ear, causing her cheeks to flush as well.

Doing this in front of another girl is way too bold, isn't it?

A faint ripple appeared, and she suddenly fell unconscious.

"Sorry. I'll make you something delicious tonight!"

Wei Gong silently apologized in his heart.

After completing his mission as a savior and returning to an ordinary life, he had used most of his remaining power to restrain the brat, wrapping her in layer upon layer of protective safeguards.

Thus, whenever danger arose, he could only make her unconscious for a short period.

That allowed him to draw out the enormous power infused within her body and use it to face the danger.

At most once a day, and for no more than three minutes each time.

Otherwise, he might be completely unable to suppress the brat and would release a World-Ending Demon King.

"I wanted to be an ordinary person. Why did you have to force me into this?"

Wei Gong sighed softly.

Three minutes—that was also Ultraman's duration. It really wasn't enough time.

"You really aren't ordinary!"

Ishtar grew increasingly suspicious.

Would an ordinary person raise a little girl with such a terrifying aura?

Could an ordinary person remain calm while facing a goddess's pressure?

She suddenly laughed. "Although you're a little strange, you actually abandoned your greatest trump card. What a foolish human!"

That little blonde girl with twin tails was the person she was most wary of.

The young man before her was completely insignificant!

Gemstones suddenly appeared in her hand, each containing an enormous amount of magical power.

After possessing this poor young lady, Ishtar helplessly discovered that she could only use Jewel Magic.

Her combat strength had been weakened by the overwhelming majority.

But it was enough.

I am Ishtar, an invincible goddess!

Once she captured this fellow, she would be able to properly enjoy a happy life in the human world!

"Foolish mortal, do you really think you can provoke a goddess?" Ishtar said with a light laugh.

She instantly emptied every gemstone in her host body. They did not belong to her anyway, so she felt no pain using them!

The gemstones formed a net covering the heavens and earth, completely sealing off every escape route around Wei Gong: front, back, left, right, above, and below.

Wei Gong did not panic in the slightest. He snapped his fingers. "Za Warudo!"

A power so mysterious that it was beyond compare spread outward from him as its center.

Everything around them began to slow down.

The rotating gemstones, the dust floating in the air, and everything else all slowed down.

[Time Alter!]

A powerful magecraft that accelerated the time within his body, effectively stopping time in the world around him.

In this world slowed to the extreme, he effortlessly dodged all of her attacks.

He swung his dagger fiercely at the girl's head.

However.

A layer of magical defense surrounded her, causing his attack to return without success.

When everything returned to normal,

Ishtar was plunged into extreme shock. "You can actually control the time within your own body?"
