The arrival of Ishtar in the Light Screen footage made everyone stiffen. Yet the one who came to mind was not the Venus goddess herself, but Ereshkigal, the goddess of the underworld who shared one body with her.
Seeing Fujimaru Tachibana and the others looking at her with peculiar expressions, Ishtar was deeply puzzled. "What's wrong? Is it weird that I came over?"
"Are you kidding? With such a huge commotion here, how could I possibly not notice?"
At that, Mash and Fujimaru Tachibana could not help exchanging glances.
Mash: "Senpai, it seems Miss Ishtar doesn't have any memories of that night..."
Fujimaru Tachibana: "Yes. Merlin said that she doesn't even know she has two souls in one body."
Then, beneath Ishtar's increasingly baffled gaze, Fujimaru Tachibana did not bring up Ereshkigal. Instead, she briefly explained what had happened here.
After hearing it, Ishtar was completely dumbfounded. "You're saying that Kingu arrogantly set up a trap and summoned a second-generation Demonic Beast to deal with you, but because of a sudden influx of Honkai energy, the beast he summoned turned into a Honkai Beast?"
"Are you kidding? This is an Age of Gods environment, not the world after the Age of Gods faded away."
"For something like that to happen, the summoner himself must have had a problem. Only then could a summoned Demonic Beast turn into a Honkai Beast."
"You said that summoning circle was made with human blood, so the issue shouldn't be with the circle. It should be with Kingu, the summoner."
"Are you kidding? Even if that guy's a fake, he's still using Enkidu's body. It's a divine construct, so how could it possibly be connected to Honkai?"
"Even if he's standing against humanity, as a divine construct, he should still be irreconcilably opposed to Honkai!"
