Tiamat tilted her head, pondering for a moment, a flicker of understanding in her eyes.
She remembered that when she first met Lan Ze, he not only possessed Divine Era Magic but also had contracts with gods.
However, after her "efforts," she had successfully licked away both the contracts and the magic from Lan Ze. After that, only her scent remained on him.
Nearly four days had passed, and she had forgotten about it.
Seeing Tiamat seemingly recall something, Lan Ze seized the opportunity to explain further, "After I left the dream, I met the goddess who signed the contract with me again. We went to her temple together. Perhaps I accidentally picked up her scent on the way."
Tiamat gently shook her head.
Her red star-like pupils reflected Lan Ze's face, and she whispered, "The scent on you is very strong."
"It wouldn't be there without intimate contact."
Lan Ze's heart grew cold.
He hadn't expected Tiamat to be such a... detective?
She could even detect such a detail?
After they returned, Ishtar had indeed made some intimate gestures. It was likely that the strong scent Tiamat mentioned was picked up then.
If he were to marry Mother of All, wouldn't any hint of infidelity be caught immediately?
But then again, if he were to truly marry Mother of All, what would be the point of infidelity?
Mother of All is the best in the world!
"Naughty boy, you're lying," she said softly.
Almost the instant her voice fell, Lan Ze felt the ground tremble slightly. In the next moment, a semi-transparent vine erupted from the ground, instantly wrapping around Lan Ze's legs and lifting him up.
The transparent vine flung Lan Ze out. After circling in mid-air, it entwined around Lan Ze's body and returned him to Tiamat's presence.
Despite feeling dizzy, Lan Ze clearly saw the woman's pure white, flawless, and lovely face. She was just like when they first met, with no adornments. Two strands of blue hair covered her chest, but they still couldn't hide her magnificent figure.
"Mother... what are you doing?" Lan Ze tried hard to break free from the vine, but whether Tiamat had done something to it or not, he couldn't break free with all his strength.
"Naughty boy, you need to be punished," Tiamat whispered.
"To remove all your scent."
"W-wait... what are you doing?!"
Tiamat gently embraced Lan Ze, then pressed her tender lips against his again. Lan Ze, who had been struggling and shouting, "Let me go!", stopped struggling as Tiamat's soft lips met his.
A perfunctory struggle was enough. It would be troublesome if Mother of All actually let him go.
Although being restrained was a bit uncomfortable... kissing wasn't uncomfortable at all.
So fragrant!
After an unknown amount of time, Tiamat released him. Her face was flushed with a shy blush.
"Mother... can you let me go now?"
Tiamat gently shook her head, "Not yet."
After she finished speaking, her already slightly larger than Lan Ze's sexy body began to slowly grow.
In this dream world, she could consciously control her body freely, and its size was determined by herself. At this moment, her body had doubled in size, and then she raised her hand.
The transparent vines entwined around Lan Ze quietly disappeared. Before Lan Ze could react, she reached out and hugged her child tightly.
This time, no matter how much Lan Ze shouted, "Mother, please loosen your grip, I can't breathe!", Tiamat didn't let go.
She intended to cover the scent of other goddesses on him with her own scent. Until this task was completed, the Creation Mother Goddess had no intention of letting go.
After an unknown amount of time, Lan Ze, who had initially enjoyed it until his cheeks turned red, finally collapsed onto the ground, swaying unsteadily, when Tiamat released him.
Tiamat reacted quickly and rushed to support Lan Ze.
"Mother... please be gentler next time," Lan Ze said weakly.
If he had truly died like this, it would have been the funniest death in all these years.
Suffocating to death in Tiamat's embrace...
Although it looked enviable, if he had truly died this way, it would have been hard to find anything amusing about it.
"Aaaa?" Tiamat blinked innocently.
Is she pretending not to understand me now... Lan Ze silently put his hand to his forehead.
"Forget it. Next time, I'll be careful not to come into contact with other goddesses."
He finally understood. Mother of All didn't want him to touch any god other than herself.
This Creation Mother Goddess was terrifyingly powerful, but with such immense power, her world was small, and she possessed very little. Therefore, she didn't want even this little bit to be taken away.
This woman appeared so gentle, with an overflowing motherly love, but in reality, she was very insecure, still fearing that her child would leave her.
Sometimes Lan Ze wondered, if this were an online game, the players in Tiamat's faction would probably be overflowing by now.
"Aaaa."
When he heard Tiamat's voice ring out again, Lan Ze, having barely recovered from the near-fatal embrace, spoke, "Are you asking me to continue telling you what happened outside?"
Tiamat nodded gently, her beautiful red star-like eyes holding a hint of anticipation.
Lan Ze pondered for a moment, then decided to continue recounting his experiences in the real world.
He spoke of things like the iron contraptions that could move without walking, and the televisions that allowed him to see images while at home. In short, he described various things commonplace to him as a modern person, and Tiamat listened with great interest.
"AaaaAaa (What does a television that can show images look like?)"
"It's a thin, rectangular machine that plays moving images," Lan Ze explained.
"Aaaa (Why do the images move?)"
Lan Ze was taken aback.
He looked into Tiamat's eyes, unsure how to explain.
He looked up at Tiamat's sparkling eyes and, after a moment of silence, said, "If you can leave this world later, I'll take you to see what a television looks like."
As for now... he really didn't know how to explain it to Tiamat.
After all, he couldn't project the images from his mind onto a television screen for Tiamat to see, and Tiamat couldn't understand a verbal explanation.
Clank.
Just as Lan Ze thought this, a fleeting image flashed through his mind. Suddenly, he heard a heavy metallic clanking sound beside his ear.
He looked in the direction of the loud noise, and his vision was filled with a machine gleaming with metallic luster. Its true form... wasn't it a television?!
...What's going on?
Looking at the machine before him, Lan Ze was completely stunned.
He remembered that the television he had just imagined in his mind looked exactly like this.
He had only imagined it, and yet this thing actually appeared?!
Lan Ze's heart stirred slightly, and he suddenly thought of a possibility.
...Could his inner fantasies become reality?
If the imaginings in his mind could manifest into physical objects, then if he imagined beautiful girls in swimsuits playing volleyball on the beach right now, would it--
Just as he thought this, his train of thought was suddenly interrupted.
In Lan Ze's vision, several beautiful girls in bikinis playing beach volleyball truly appeared.
"Aaaa?"
At the same time, Tiamat's confused voice came from beside him.
Merlin returned to Uruk and saw Gilgamesh, who was still busy working.
He patiently waited until Gilgamesh finished giving an order before speaking.
"My King, I have returned."
Gilgamesh looked up and saw a small bump on Merlin's forehead. His usually arrogant red eyes held a hint of confusion. "What happened to your forehead?"
Merlin sighed and covered his forehead, saying, "That mother flicked my forehead, and it became like this."
Gilgamesh's lips twitched inadvertently.
"My King?" Merlin noticed this.
"Were you just laughing at me?"
Gilgamesh looked down at Merlin and said calmly, "This King would not mock you for such a thing. Being able to return safely from facing that mother is enough, isn't it?"
Merlin's eyes were full of resentment. "But you're clearly laughing right now."
Gilgamesh snorted, "This King said he wouldn't laugh, and he wouldn't laugh."
He then glanced at Merlin's forehead again, averted his face unintentionally, and found it hard to keep a straight face.
A moment later, he looked back at Merlin and asked seriously, "What do you think of that mother's strength?"
Merlin pondered for a moment and said, "If she were serious, no one could stop her."
Gilgamesh fell silent.
He didn't believe Merlin was lying.
His Clairvoyance could see the future, and long ago, he had already seen his own future.
However, although he knew the direction of the future, he didn't know the specific events that would occur.
Now, it seemed that Tiamat was the one who could push him, and even all of Uruk and Humanity's Order, to the brink of despair.
That fellow named Lan Ze had indeed brought back some crucial information.
"How is Lan Ze now?" Gilgamesh asked again.
In his Clairvoyance, the only variable was Lan Ze. In the future he saw, there was no such person as "Lan Ze."
Therefore, he was slightly interested in Lan Ze.
However, only slightly.
In reality, he didn't have high hopes for Lan Ze's ability to pacify Tiamat. But since Merlin had brought up the suggestion, it was better to go all out than do nothing, at least he wouldn't have any regrets.
"He and Tiamat get along very well," Merlin said.
Gilgamesh nodded slowly. "That's enough."
"The fact that Tiamat is willing to let him into her dreams means she approves of him. As for how far he can go, that depends on him."
"They have a good relationship," Merlin said, recalling the scene he had just witnessed, his mood complicated.
Nightmare didn't understand LSP's emotions, nor did it know that LSP could be fearless, with values following looks, completely unafraid of Tiamat.
"A good relationship, you say..." Gilgamesh nodded thoughtfully.
"In that case, with a little more nurturing of their feelings, he should be able to appease Mother somewhat in the future."
"No, I don't think he needs to continue nurturing his feelings with Tiamat anymore. Their relationship is already very good," Merlin thought to himself that if they continued to nurture their feelings, they might end up having children inside.
As if sensing Gilgamesh didn't understand, Merlin spoke again. "I saw him sleeping on Mother's lap, and Mother seemed very dependent on him."
Gilgamesh froze slightly, a flicker of surprise crossing his sharp red eyes.
After a long pause, he slowly calmed down.
Honestly, Gilgamesh was reluctant to believe Merlin's words. After all, she was the Mother of Creation, the mother of everyone. If that young man truly had such a close relationship with Mother... and if something were to happen between them in the future, wouldn't Lan Ze be his... father?
Thinking of this, Gilgamesh held his forehead, feeling a headache coming on.
After rubbing his temples, he spoke. "Enough. This king needs you to do one more thing."
Seeing Merlin look up with a confused expression, Gilgamesh said softly:
"Go find a tablet,"
He paused. "The Tablet of Destinies."
