As soon as Emiya Shirou's words fell, a sword light had already slashed through Ereshkigal's body.

"You guy!"

Seeing Ereshkigal being cut to the ground, Ishtar was furious and rushed towards the black-robed old man who was wielding his sword.

But her kick had no effect on the black-robed old man, and it went straight through his body.

"What's going on?"

"Calm down!"

Before Ishtar could react, the sound of Shirou Emiya stopping him came.

"See clearly, it's not her body that I've cut off, it's her contract."

"Huh?"

After hearing the voice of the black-robed old man, Eleshkigal, who was originally lying on the ground, immediately sat up.

"I thought I was cut in half?"

Ereshkigal, who was completely frightened, trembled as he spoke.

"So who are you, old man? The only living people in the underworld should be Fujimaru Rika and Emiya Shirou, right? ”

When Ereshkigal was beheaded just now, Gilgamesh was not so surprised.

It wasn't like he knew anything in advance.

Rather, it was out of trust in Emiya Shirou and believed that he would not do such a thing as killing Ereshkigale.

But now, when the black-robed old man said that he had severed the alliance between Ereshkigal and the Three Goddesses, he was shocked.

The opponent's previous slash did not have the slightest fluctuation of the Noble Phantasm.

It was just an ordinary sword.

But it was this ordinary sword that severed the contract between Ereshkigal and the Three Goddesses Alliance, a thing that even Gilgamesh could not accept calmly.

"Look at your skills, it's definitely not very human. But neither the king nor the Chaldeans have called you, so where did you come from? ”

The black-robed old man did not answer Gilgamesh's questioning directly.

"Who knows? It was only because of the entangled situation that I came from the abyss to push the pointer. Ereshkigale, you hide the truth and make up lies. ”

"If you still have a trace of shame, answer me. The reason you created the Kingdom of the Dead is that as a goddess entrusted with souls, you have always loved souls. ”

"And so it was!"

Fujimaru Rika on the side waved her fist excitedly.

Because of Emiya Shirou's instructions, on the way to subdue Quezar, Fujimaru Rika and Ereshkigale communicated a lot.

From her conversation, Fujimaru Ritsuka can clearly perceive the good and evil of the other party.

She firmly believes that Ereshkigal is definitely not the kind of evil goddess who will harvest the souls of life on earth for her own selfish desires.

"You, what are you talking nonsense?"

Having seen through his purpose and thoughts, Ereshkigal nervously argued: "I only love my own things, only my soul in a cage. ”

"How can I love humans!?"

"Elle!"

Emiya Shirou's words interrupted Ereshkigal's defense.

"What your purpose is, I know very well. Don't make a fool of yourself, it will only make you more miserable, accept the reality. ”

"Me!"

Looking at Emiya Shirou, who was squatting in front of him and caring for him, Ereshkigal suddenly fell silent.

Seeing this, the black-robed old man continued: "Mistress of the underworld, the blood-colored flower that was sacrificed to the earth! You are not in love with dead humans, but with humans who have the fate of dying sooner or later. ”

"Death is not reduced to a disgusting fear, but revered it. O goddess trying to protect the soul that remains after death! The purpose of your alliance is simply to bring as many souls as possible into the underworld for protection. ”

"Even if you don't get anyone's understanding, even if you are isolated by tens of thousands of souls in this country. Guarding this silence is your dignity as a goddess. ”

The thoughts hidden in his heart were ruthlessly removed by the black-robed old man in front of him, and Ereshkigale's eyes continued to contain tears.

"But, I've been..."

"If you're talking about people who died because you took their souls, then you don't need to care, after all, their bodies are still well stored."

"If you release their souls back, they will come back to life."

Reaching out to gently soothe the head of Ereshkigal, who was sitting on the ground, Emiya Shirou gently comforted her.

"Really?"

Ereshkigal's eyes shone with joy.

"Of course, your debilitating death is nothing compared to the casualties inflicted by Gorgon."

Gilgamesh interjected contemptuously: "There are nine hundred people in Saku City, three hundred people in Uruk, and the total number of victims is only one thousand and two hundred. ”

"With this level of number, as long as the basement of the tower is opened, it can be easily contained. This king said it directly! Judging by the total number of casualties, you are undoubtedly the least of the Three Goddesses Alliance. ”

"That's pretty scary, isn't it? After all, I've been more energetic than ever! ”

Hearing Gilgamesh's blunt words, Ereshkigal couldn't help but bow his head.

In this regard, Emiya Shirou raised the corners of his mouth lightly and couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, this operation went very smoothly, we successfully took down Elle and completely disintegrated the Three Goddesses Alliance."

"Yay!"

Rika Fujimaru and Matthew jumped for joy.

After all, they have now enveloped the four goddesses, and they are undoubtedly crushing the goddess of revenge Gorgon in terms of high-end combat power.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party possessed the power of Tiamat and cultivated hundreds of thousands of demonic beasts, everyone would have been able to declare victory in the war by now.

"Hey, where's the old man?"

After the excitement, Fujimaru Rika immediately noticed that the black-robed old man from before had disappeared.

For this black-robed old man, Fujimaru Rika still has some good feelings.

After all, when she fell into the underworld of Saku City before, it was the other party who rescued her, sent her back to the ground, and gave her the Heavenly Destiny Slab.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party was telling the goddess of the underworld about Ereshkigale, she would have gone up to say hello.

"What a black-robed old man! I didn't see anything here! ”

Roman, who was far away in the Chaldeans supporting, asked loudly for unknown reasons.

From the detection device on his side, there was no figure of the black-robed old man at all.

"Of course you can't see it, after all, that old man has reached the pinnacle of existence in terms of breath blocking!"

Although Emiya Shirou's breath is also very exquisite.

But there is still a distance from the black-robed old man who is the assassin of the crown.

"Huh? But didn't Shirou's seniors see through his breath just now and call him? ”

Recalling the scene just now, Matthew asked suspiciously.

"I'm just blinded!"

"I just guessed he'd be here, and I just shouted casually."

Spreading his hands, Emiya Shirou said helplessly.
