Text Chapter 482: The Road to the Underworld

The day after the death of King Gilgamesh, Tatsuka Fujimaru and his party returned to Uruk.

"Humph, this time we won a big victory. After 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 thanks to Tatsuka Fujimaru for being able to subdue Quezal? What does this have to do with you?"

"Ha, why doesn't it matter!"

"Then tell me what important thing you did."

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

On the other hand, Fujimaru Tachika and Matthew Quetzal looked at the two of them helplessly.

As for Merlin, he was watching the quarrel between the two with a smile.

Just when Fujimaru Rika wanted to step forward to dissuade them, the soldiers who had been guarding the city outside the city gate hurried over after seeing them.

"It's really Miss Fujimaru Rika!"

"It's you, Mr. Doorman."

The person who came was the soldier guarding the castle gate who was familiar with Fujimaru Tatsuka and the others.

When Fujimaru Rika and the others first came to Uruk, they met him, and the other party gave Anna candy that looked like a child at the time.

"Great, finally waiting for you."

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

"Quickly rush to the tower of God?"

Fujimaru Rika and Merlin looked at each other, and both saw worried expressions in each other's eyes.

Is this what happened in the tower?

"I understand, let's go to the tower!"

"Then please."

Merlin made a decisive decision, and quickly rushed to the tower with Fujimaru Tachika and others.

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

"Senior Shirou!"

Fujimaru Rika hurriedly shouted.

"Let's hurry to the tower, is there something big happened?"

Upon seeing this, Emiya Shirou said solemnly: "It is indeed a major event, King Gilgamesh has died!"

"what!"

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

And the one who responded the most was Merlin.

"This is impossible, King Gilgamesh will not be killed!"

"He is a man who knows the future and takes the initiative to become a magician. He should have been fully prepared to deal with all kinds of assassinations."

"In order to avoid being killed on the battlefield, he and I made an appointment to insist on commanding from the throne."

"Who is it, and what method was used to kill Gilgamesh like this!"

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

"The last person in the alliance of the three goddesses, the mistress of the underworld, used the power of death on Uruk on the ground."

"Anyone who is exhausted will be mercilessly robbed of their souls in their sleep. And that's what killed King Gilgamesh."

"Ha, Ereshkigal?"

It was Ishtar who was yelling this time.

"Why does the name Ereshkigal appear here!"

"Well, doesn't Miss Ishtar know?"

Gu Li looked at Ishtar's almost distorted face, and Mash said numbly, "Miss Ereshkigal is the last member of the Three Goddess Alliance!"

"I do not know!"

Hearing this news suddenly, Ishtar, who was in disbelief, couldn't help but look at Quezar who was standing on one side.

To this, Quetzal responded with just a nodding gesture.

This time, Ishtar was completely discouraged.

"Is it Ereshkigal? It seems that Shirou has already analyzed the matter. Do you have any plans?"

"Does it need to be said? Of course, I went to the underworld to bring him back!"

Emiya Shirou said decisively.

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

"Go to the underworld?"

After hearing Emiya Shirou's words, Fujimaru Tachika and Mash couldn't help but cast their eyes on Ishtar.

"Hey, hey, wait! How can you say the words to 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 heroic spirit or divinity is, it will be powerless to speak."

"There, Ereshkigal is the absolute law. No matter what, we will be caught by her and sentenced to be impaled."

Obviously, Ishtar is full of resistance to going to the underworld.

"If that's the case, then it's decided! Let's do a good job and let King Gilgamesh owe us a big favor!"

Roman said loudly through the communication device.

Seeing this, Ishtarton, who did not want to go to the underworld at all, had the idea of ​​running away.

But unfortunately, under the guard of the feathered snake **** Quezal and Emiya Shirou, she could not escape anywhere.

...

"Woooooo!"

Driving Vimana to Saku City~lightnovelpub.net~ Emiya Shirou threw down Ishtar, who was bound by chains.

Then, in her pleading gaze, the chains that could lock Prometheus were undone.

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

Unable to resist, Ishtar was forced to accept the journey.

After confirming the premise of going to the underworld, Ishtar said to Merlin and Quezal who came with him: "I, Shirou Emiya, Tatsuka Fujimaru and Mash will be the candidates to go to the underworld this time. !"

"Merlin and Quetzal are waiting there. Especially Quetzal, if you go to the underworld, you will only be slaughtered."

"Oh, why!?"

Quezal, who originally wanted to go to the underworld to make a scene, was reluctant.

In this regard, Ishtar explained patiently.

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

"In the underworld, only death and Ereshkigal, the mistress of the underworld, are supreme. But what do you think would happen if a **** dies and falls into the underworld?"

"It turns out that the gods will say 'I will not admit death' and make a scene in the underworld, and will soon return to the earth. In this way, there will be no difference between life and death."

Merlin said with a sudden realization.

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

"That's why the underworld has built a system that makes the gods powerless. It's really interesting."

"It seems that the main force of this trip is me again!"

Emiya Shirou's face showed a satisfied smile as he moved his muscles and bones.

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