The day after King Gilgamesh's death, Fujimaru Rika and his party returned to Uruk.

"Hmph, this time we have won a big victory, and when I go back, I must let Gilgamesh worship the power of the goddess."

Hearing Ishtar's excited words, Anna on the side looked at her speechlessly.

"It's all the credit of Rika Fujimaru to be able to subdue Quezar, right? What does this have to do with you? ”

"Ha, why doesn't it matter!"

"Then tell me what you did."

In response to his rhetoric, Ishtar and Anna quarreled at the gates of the city.

On the side, Fujimaru Rika and Mathew Quizar looked at the two of them helplessly.

As for Merlin, he was smiling and watching the two quarrel.

Just when Fujimaru Rika wanted to step forward to dissuade her, the soldiers who were originally guarding the city outside the city gate hurriedly ran over after seeing their traces.

"It's really Miss Rika Fujimaru!"

"It's you, Mr. Janitor."

The person who came was the soldier guarding the city gate who was familiar with Fujimaru Rika and others.

They met him when they first came to Uruk, and they gave Anna candy, who looked like a child.

"Great, it's finally time for you."

The soldier guarding the city gate said happily: "Last night there was an order from the Divine Tower, let us tell you as soon as we see you, Mr. Merlin, and let you hurry to the Divine Tower. ”

"Hurry to the Divine Tower?"

Fujimaru Rika and Merlin glanced at each other, and both saw a worried look in each other's eyes.

Is there something going on in the tower?

"I see, let's go to the Divine Tower!"

"Then please."

Merlin immediately made a decision and quickly rushed to the Divine Tower with Fujimaru Rika and others.

After entering the tower, they saw Emiya Shirou standing there waiting for their arrival.

"Shirou-senpai!"

Fujimaru Rika hurriedly shouted.

"Let's hurry to the Divine Tower, has something big happened?"

Seeing this, Emiya Shirou said solemnly: "It is indeed a big deal, King Gilgamesh has died!" ”

"What!"

Hearing Emiya Shirou's words, everyone present screamed loudly.

And the biggest reaction among them is Merlin.

"This can't be, King Gilgamesh won't be killed!"

"He is a man who sees the future and takes the initiative to become a magician, and he should have been fully prepared for all kinds of assassinations."

"In order to avoid dying on the battlefield, he made an appointment with me to insist on commanding from the throne."

"Who the hell is it, and what method can be used to kill such Gilgamesh!"

Looking at the furious Merlin, Emiya Shirou stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Calm down, Merlin." The other side is Ereshkigal. ”

"The last of the Three Goddesses, the mistress of Hades, used the power of death on Uruk on the earth."

"Anyone who is physically exhausted will be ruthlessly robbed of his soul in his sleep. And it was because of this that King Gilgamesh died. ”

"Ha, Ereshkigal?"

This time it was Ishtar who was shouting.

"Why is the name Ereshkigal here?"

"Well, doesn't Miss Ishtar know?"

Gu Liang looked at Ishtar's almost distorted face, and Matthew said glutinously, "Miss Ereshkigal is the last member of the Three Goddesses Alliance!" ”

"I don't know!"

Suddenly hearing the news, Ishtar, who was a little incredulous, couldn't help but look at Quezar, who was standing on the side.

To this, Quezal responded with a mere nod.

At this point, Ishtar was completely discouraged.

"Was it Ereshkigal? It seems that Shirou has finished analyzing the matter, so do you have any plans? ”

"Do you need to talk about that? Of course, I went to the underworld to bring him back! ”

Emiya Shirou said categorically.

"That's why I'm waiting for you here! After all, the only one who knows where the entrance to the underworld is now is Ishtar! ”

"To the underworld?"

After listening to Emiya Shirou's words, Fujimaru Rika and Mathew couldn't help but turn their eyes to Ishtar.

"Hey, hey, wait! How can you say that you can go to the underworld so easily, this courage is too much! ”

"That's the underworld! The Underworld! It's a world where no matter what the heroic spirit or divinity is, it will be powerless to speak. ”

"There, Ereshkigal is absolute law. We're going to be caught by her anyway, and we're going to be impaled. ”

Clearly, Ishtar was full of resistance to going to the underworld.

"In that case, then it is decided! Do a good job, and let King Gilgamesh owe us a great favor! ”

Roman said loudly through the communication device.

Seeing this, Ishtar, who didn't want to go to the underworld at all, suddenly had the idea of running away.

But unfortunately, under the watchful guard of the Quetzalcoatl god and Emiya Shirou, she couldn't escape anywhere.

...

"Woooooo

Driving Vimana to Saku City, Emiya Shirou left Ishtar, who had been bound in chains.

Then, in her pleading gaze, she undid the chains that could hold Prometheus together.

"I know, I know! Can't I go to the underworld! ”

Broken jars and broken, Ishtar, unable to resist, was forced to accept the journey.

After determining the premise of going to the underworld, Ishtar said to Merlin and Quezal, who came with him: "The candidates for this trip to the underworld are me, Emiya Shirou, Fujimaru Rika and Mathew!" ”

Merlin and Quezar were waiting up there. Especially Quezal, if you go to the underworld, you will only be slaughtered. ”

"Alas, why!?"

Quezar, who originally wanted to go to the underworld to make a big fuss, looked reluctant.

Ishtar patiently explained this.

"Because in the underworld divinity will have side effects, where the weak divinity will remain weak, and the strong divinity will become weak."

"In the underworld, only death and Ereshkigal, who is the mistress of the underworld, are the supreme authorities. But what do you think would happen if a god died and fell into the underworld? ”

"I see, God will say, 'I will not admit death,' and make a big fuss in the underworld, and soon he will be back to earth. In this way, there is no difference between life and death. ”

Merlin said with a look of sudden realization.

"Even if you are a god, you have to stay in the underworld after you die."

"That's why the underworld has built a system that powerlessly powers the gods, which is really interesting."

"In this way, wouldn't it be me who is the main force of this trip!"

Moving his muscles, Emiya Shirou's face showed a satisfied smile.

"After all, I don't rely much on divinity!"
