Moon World Girlfriend Comes Knocking

The Beast Goddess hasn't been dealt with, the singularity's troubles are still ongoing, and that light band in the sky hasn't been handled yet.

Under such a tense atmosphere, my Divine Messenger is on a date with my mom?!

This fact made Ishtar's mood extremely complicated.

She thought highly of Lan Ze, or rather, she quite liked this human. The main reason was that he fit her taste, and he also had the Blessing of the Creation Mother Goddess...

Therefore, when she first saw Lan Ze, she was excited and planned to give him a surprise.

But now, it turned out Lan Ze was the one who gave her a surprise.

And also...

What's the situation with Mother acting so affectionately?

It's true that Tiamat likes her "children," but isn't she also Mother's child, not just Lan Ze?

Why is she so affectionate specifically towards Lan Ze?

For Ishtar, who was once doted on by all the gods, this was a huge blow.

The Divine Messenger who should have been her lover was snatched away by her mother. She, who should have been cherished, did not receive "Mother's" affection.

If this situation were to be explained roughly, it would be like you getting caught by your girlfriend while you're on a date with her mom... If you were to calculate Ishtar's psychological shadow area right now, it would definitely be infinite.

She witnessed this scene, but couldn't lash out. She even had to call the other person "Mother"...

Ishtar's mood was very complex. She looked up at Tiamat, and soon a gentle smile appeared on her face: "What is it, it's Mother. Are you out for fun?"

Clearly, she didn't often show such a gentle smile to others, so although the smile looked extremely beautiful, it was also a little stiff.

As she spoke, Ishtar glanced at Lan Ze again: "Why didn't you say so earlier? If I had known it was Mother, I wouldn't have been so rude just now."

"No, you're usually like this, aren't you--"

As soon as Lan Ze said this, Ishtar covered his mouth, glared at him, her eyes warning him not to speak carelessly.

Then, sensing Tiamat's confused gaze, Ishtar immediately said with a smile: "Mother, this human is my Divine Messenger. He might not understand me very well yet. Actually, I'm a very kind and approachable goddess."

Tiamat didn't seem to care about these things. She looked at Ishtar's hand covering Lan Ze's mouth, her eyes flickered, and she said softly, "This is my child."

Ishtar froze, then let go of his hand: "Ah... yes, sorry. Then I'll give him to you. Please, go ahead."

Why does it feel like she's just transferring ownership to Tiamat... Lan Ze complained helplessly in his heart.

Watching Tiamat pull Lan Ze to her side, looking like she wouldn't let anyone touch him, Ishtar was silent for a moment: "Where are you planning to go next?"

Lan Ze was slightly taken aback.

He looked up at the twilight sky. After leaving the dreamscape, they had walked a long way, and it was already getting dark.

"It's getting dark. If you don't mind, you can rest at my temple first," Ishtar continued.

Lan Ze subconsciously looked at Tiamat, wanting to get her opinion.

However, Tiamat didn't care about such things. As long as she could stay by Lan Ze's side, she was fine.

"Then we'll trouble you tonight," Lan Ze said.

"No trouble, no trouble," Ishtar smiled. "Then let's set off now. Is that celestial boat you were riding still here?"

Lan Ze shook his head.

Everything in his Gate of Babylon was a one-time use, including Gilgamesh's celestial boat.

However, he could recreate a celestial boat using Illusion Manifestation now.

"The celestial boat is gone, but give me some time, and I can recreate one," Lan Ze said.

Ishtar glanced at Tiamat. Seeing that she had no objections, she nodded: "Then we'll wait for you for a while."

A short while later, Lan Ze successfully manifested a celestial boat from mythology. Under Ishtar's guidance, they soon arrived at the temple.

"You can sleep in the side hall tonight," Ishtar said, hands on her hips, looking at Lan Ze.

"Aaaa," Tiamat said something in a low voice.

"Mother... what did she say again?" Ishtar's previous arrogance vanished, and she asked cautiously.

Lan Ze looked at Ishtar with a subtle expression, helpless: "She wants to sleep with me..."

Ishtar: "..."

So why?!

Why is Mother so clingy to her Divine Messenger? Also, is Lan Ze planning to become her father?!

"It's okay... I'll take good care of her. We're just a normal relationship, don't worry, Goddess." Lan Ze explained.

Ishtar's expression improved slightly. She glanced at Tiamat standing beside her, and finally sighed, her shoulders slumping powerlessly: "Then Mother, I'll trouble you tonight. My room is quite large, so you can stay there tonight."

"Mm... Thank you, Goddess," Lan Ze said.

"Just call me Ishtar," Ishtar said, rolling her eyes at Lan Ze.

"You two go rest first. I have something to do and need to go out."

After saying that, and waiting until Lan Ze took Tiamat into his room, Ishtar finally withdrew her gaze.

She summoned Ma'anna, and with a swish... very quickly, with another swish, she disappeared into the temple.

Uruk, the Royal Hall.

Gilgamesh leaned against his throne, as usual, staying up all night.

Just then, with a "boom," a huge hole blasted open in the ceiling, and Ishtar appeared, riding her celestial boat.

Gilgamesh didn't even look at her, his arrogant and calm voice ringing out, "Incompetent goddess, why are you here bothering me late at night instead of resting? Or has your shabby, rundown temple finally become too small to even house yourself?"

Ishtar, uncharacteristically, was not provoked. She crossed her arms and arrogantly looked down at Gilgamesh below. "Golden Flash, don't say I never do anything important. I'm here to tell you that Lan Ze has already brought Mother out."

"Hahahahahaha, do you really think I wouldn't know about something like this?"

Gilgamesh let out a kingly laugh from his throne, his crimson eyes holding a hint of indifference. "I knew about this before you did, so why do I need you to inform me?"

"Oh, is that so?" Ishtar's lips curved slightly. "Then you also know that Lan Ze is currently sleeping with Mother?"

"?"

Almost simultaneously, Gilgamesh slowly formed a question mark.

He slowly raised his head, his arrogant gaze showing confusion and surprise for the first time. "Lan Ze is sleeping with Mother...?"

"Incompetent goddess, explain yourself clearly," Gilgamesh said.

"What do you mean Lan Ze is sleeping with Mother?"

Ishtar's lips curved slightly, and she ignored him. She glanced at the usually arrogant Golden Flash, whose eyes never looked down, and seeing his shocked expression, she nodded with satisfaction, a hint of pleasure flashing in her eyes.

She stuck out her tongue at Gilgamesh. "If you want to know, go confirm it with your own eyes, if you have the courage."

After saying that, she happily mounted Ma'anna and was about to leave.

Just then, a hearty laugh echoed from below.

Ishtar froze mid-motion, turned her head, and squinted at Gilgamesh. "What are you laughing at?"

"You keep saying Lan Ze is sleeping with Mother, so I'll ask you," Gilgamesh paused. "Isn't Lan Ze your divine messenger?"

"Isn't he the lover you've been grooming?"

Ishtar was suddenly speechless.

"Now your lover has been taken by the Creation Mother Goddess, and you do nothing but come to me trying to pique my curiosity... Should I say you don't care deeply for Lan Ze, or that you don't even have the courage to resist the Creation Mother Goddess?"

Ishtar sneered. "You think I'm afraid to resist Mother? If it weren't for the previous gems..."

She coughed lightly. "If it weren't for the promise I made to Ritsuka and Mashu, I would have already taken back my divine messenger."

Ishtar then snorted coldly. "But if I did that, no one would want to see Mother's wrath, would they?"

In truth, after saying all that, Ishtar had no intention of resisting.

Even when facing her father, the Sky God Anu, Ishtar remained rebellious. But from the moment she first saw Tiamat, she found it difficult to muster any rebellious thoughts.

This stemmed from an inner reverence. She knew that even if she attacked Tiamat, she wouldn't be able to cause any harm.

After speaking, Ishtar left the Royal Hall on her celestial boat without looking at Gilgamesh.

In the temple, in what should have been Ishtar's luxurious room, Tiamat had taken over.

The Creation Mother Goddess sat at the head of the bed. Her waist, which could be held in a single grasp, had its belt undone. She lowered her head, gently stroking Lan Ze, who was replenishing his mana in her arms, and softly asked:

"Aaaaa (Won't this cause trouble for her?)"

Lan Ze wiped the corner of his mouth, let out a burp, and said, "No, quite the opposite. If you were to rest in the small room in the side hall right now, Ishtar might think you dislike her and become uneasy because of it."

"After all, you are the mother of all gods... No matter how arrogant Ishtar is, she wouldn't let you sleep in the side hall."

"Aaaaa (She's a good child.)" Tiamat nodded gently.

Most importantly, she wouldn't snatch her child away.

That was a bonus point.

Lan Ze gave Tiamat a subtle smile, thinking to himself that she hadn't seen Ishtar around other people.

In Lan Ze's impression, whether it was from the anime he'd seen in memories or Ishtar's behavior he'd witnessed recently, she was basically extremely tsundere, with the "tsun" part dominating most of the time.

If it weren't for Tiamat, no one could truly keep Ishtar in check.

"Do you want to eat more?" Tiamat suddenly asked softly.

Lan Ze lay on Tiamat's lap, looked up, his gaze fixed for a moment, then he smiled and said, "No, I'm already very full."

"Let's sleep."

Tiamat nodded, then pulled up the covers, and they both lay down in the soft, large bed.

This action actually made Lan Ze constantly suspect that Tiamat treated him like a body pillow. Every time they slept, she would basically hold him in her arms like she was hugging a pillow. While it was nice to be embraced by a great being, it was indeed a bit too stifling.

While hugging her "body pillow," Tiamat was deep in thought. She suddenly asked softly, "Is this... Uruk?"

"No, this is Ishtar's temple, but it's not very far from Uruk," Lan Ze explained.

Seeing Tiamat looking thoughtful, he suddenly remembered something.

"Do you want to go on a date?"

Tiamat wasn't concerned about where she was now. She was probably just remembering an anime she'd watched recently and thinking about dating scenes.

At the time, Tiamat had specifically asked Lan Ze about dating, and it was clear she was very interested in it.

Tiamat hesitated for a moment, then nodded gently, but quickly shook her head.

"I'll just cause trouble for others."

"You won't. No one will be afraid of you now," Lan Ze said.

If Tiamat had descended upon the world in her beast form, perhaps every human would have been terrified.

But now, she was just the Creation Mother Goddess, not the Beast of Regression.

There was no reason for people to fear the mother goddess who had nurtured this land. At most, they would hold her in awe.

"If you want to go on a date, I'll take you to Uruk tomorrow," Lan Ze added.

Tiamat hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "My first date... it can be with me, can it?"

"Of course, I'd be delighted," Lan Ze said.

Mother of All is the best in the world!

Tiamat stared into Lan Ze's eyes for a long time. Sensing the extreme sincerity in the pervert's gaze, her brows relaxed. She hugged Lan Ze even more tightly, emitting a pleasant "Aaa" sound, rubbing her face against his like a kitten.

"M-Mother... can you let go a little?" Lan Ze was struggling to breathe from being hugged so tightly.

"Aaa?" Tiamat looked confused.

"Are you pretending not to understand me now?!" Lan Ze muttered in exasperation, but inwardly, he sighed happily.
