Dragon of the Root - Chapter 987: Kingu, Gorgon, Tiamat
Chapter 987: Kingu, Gorgon, Tiamat
Wu Ming secretly said in his heart.
“Learn from Ereshkigal’s mouth” and “guess yourself” are two completely different things. When Ereshkigal acknowledged it, Wu Ming felt relieved.
After all this way, it can be proven that Ereshkigal, like Quetzalcoatl, is a goddess who cares about humans but uses special methods to save humans.
“Then back to my previous question, what are you going to do next.”
The only evil god in the alliance of the three goddesses who wants to destroy humans has been withdrawn, and the other goddess has long been resisted by Wu Ming.
In the alliance of the three goddesses, only Ereshkigal remained. Now it was wajae if Wu Ming would ask Ereshkigal what to do next.
Yet Ereshkigal sighed.
“The forced suppression of the Gorgons just now consumed almost all of my divinity, and what I did just now could be considered causing damage to the Gorgons. The connection between the underworld has endured, and if it weren’t for the connection between the underworld that kept me going, maybe you wouldn’t see me anymore, I think you should be very clear about this.”
After all, according to Ereshkigal’s view, it was incredible that Wu Ming was not aware of his current change.
Indeed, as Ereshkigal had said, Wu Ming had already noticed the changes in Ereshkigal’s current body.
Almost all of the divinity in Ereshkigal disappeared, and his spiritual base became extremely fragile, as if it would shatter if touched.
Ereshkigal immediately asked.
“Why don’t you just kill me? I’m very vulnerable right now. After all, I am three goddesses with the same charm, and the enemy of mankind.”
Ereshkigal’s implication was that if she was killed, there would be no further problems and no need to ask her what to do next, and no need to worry about her continuing to deal with humans.
After killing Ereshkigal, the Three Goddess Alliance was completely destroyed. Humans are saved, and this singularity is also intact, this is a definite business.
But Wu Ming shook his head.
“I can even save good gods who do evil things, why can’t I release evil gods who do good deeds?”
Ereshkigal was shocked, she knew Wu Ming was comparing her to Ishtar again.
It was true that although Ishtar was a good god, she often did some evil things. Even though the “evil” rate is not high, the phrase “don’t do it with evil” comes in handy every time.
Ereshkigal is a nominal evil god, but she joins the Three Goddess Alliance to deal with humans, she believes that she can’t save Mesopotamia, so in order to save humans, she will choose to collect human souls to the underworld and save them.
Ereshkigal’s approach was somewhat similar to Artoria wielding a holy spear, but in the end it was different, as Ereshkigal only saved human souls.
Ishtar and Ereshkigal were different aspects of the same god, and it was natural to compare them.
“The enemy of humanity is not the Three Goddess Alliance, the enemy of humanity is only the Goddess of the Demon Beasts.”
Ereshkigal and Quetzalcoatl did not join the Three Goddess Alliance for the purpose of destroying humanity, they joined the Three Goddess Alliance for the purpose of helping and saving humanity.
“But the Gorgons have been destroyed by you?”
Without talking about the Demon Beast Goddess, Wu Ming answered directly and answered Ereshkigal on the other side.
“I can’t, I’m Ishtar’s teacher. As Ishtar’s sister, you are also my half disciple. Mistakes made by disciples must be corrected and corrected by the teacher.”
“Even though the teacher punishes the students, it’s only natural. Yes but the safety of your life is also part of my responsibility. After knowing your secret, if I still choose to kill you, then it is completely my fault, and if Ishtar finds out, she will never forgive me.”
Regardless of whether these words were true or false, Wu Ming was not prepared to destroy Ereshkigal.
The meaning of Wu Ming’s expression was very clear, how could Ereshkigal not understand it, and suddenly, a hint of tears appeared in his eyes, this was the first time she had been noticed.
But if Wu Ming knew what Ereshkigal was thinking, he would probably laugh.
Ereshkigal who grew up living in the underworld all year round like a stupid big sister”, might not be noticed by those who care. For example Ishtar, who actually really cares about her.
But one was too proud and did not show concern, and the other was too lowly and did not pay attention to the other’s attention, so that both sides did not pay attention to the other’s intentions which was very unfortunate.
“And the most important reason…”
Immediately after, Wu Ming’s tone changed.
“The Goddess Demon Beast is still alive.”
“What?!”
Ereshkigal was dumbfounded, could the Gorgon just now be a fake? So Kingu didn’t come to save her? But no way, Gorgons are real in Ereshkigal’s eyes, how can they be fake.
Soon after, Wu Ming answered Ereshkigal’s doubts.
“The real Demon Beast Goddess is the Goddess Tiamat.”
“…Oh!?” Ereshkigal was shocked.
“But…”
Wu Ming naturally knew what Ereshkigal was thinking, and that was nothing more than asking the reason.
“The reason is that I used the fake Enkidu body to let me kill the Gorgons.” Wu Ming’s eyes could only freeze.
“Hah?” What is the reason?
“I have met the Gorgons and Kingu several times before, and I can feel that Kingu cares for the Gorgons from the bottom of his heart, not a fake.” Ereshkigal expressed his opinion.
“Oh, did you also call the impostor Kingu?”
Ereshkigal also understood Wu Ming’s intention, of course she knew that the other party was not the real Kingu.
“That’s what he calls himself, so let’s call it that.” Ereshkigal sighed helplessly, probably feeling helpless at Wu Ming’s honesty.
“Then let’s call it Kingu.”
It is okay to call the other party a fake Enkidu or Kingu, after all this is only a small matter, there is no need to endure it, the key is the relationship between Kingu and Gorgon.
“As you said, Kingu’s feelings for the Gorgons are real, so why did Kingu let the Gorgons stop?”
Wu Ming followed Kingu to the underworld, but Kingu disappeared which was very strange.
“This…” Ereshkigal fell silent.
It’s true that Kingu’s feelings for the Gorgons are not fake, but if so, why did Kingu “leave” the Gorgons?
“The only answer is that the object of Kingu’s feelings is not the Gorgon, but the Goddess of the Demon Beasts.”
