Upon seeing this attack, Shirou did not hesitate to swing the "Savior God Sword" and slash at the void in front of him. In that instant, even space was directly cleaved apart, and Gorgon's body was directly distorted by the space cleaved by this sword.
"This...this is impossible...!"
Gorgon clutched his lacerated body, his eyes filled with terror as he looked at Shirou.
Her divine body could not be severed so easily, yet it was so casually and effortlessly cut off. How could she not feel terrified?
Even the Gorgon, who was adept at instilling fear in humans, couldn't help but feel an emotion he had never experienced before—fear.
His figure immediately began to glow, and Gorgon fled without hesitation.
Because she already knew that Shirou's strength was superior to hers, continuing to entangle them would only lead to her death.
Gudako, Mashu, and the others who witnessed this scene were speechless, standing there with their mouths half-open, completely stunned.
"So strong...!" Ishtar's eyes widened involuntarily, her expectations of Shirou's strength being refreshed once again. "The 'Three Goddess Alliance' and all that is no match for him..."
Ishtar now only feels a pang of sorrow for Quetzalcoatl, who has yet to appear.
However, she is currently tied up and cannot deliver the message. Even if she were to encounter the man and tell him that he should not be provoked, Quetzalcoatl would probably just brazenly rush up and challenge him.
……
Upon returning to Uruk, a meeting was held in connection with the Gorgon. Although the Gorgon had been destroyed, the location of its hive was still unknown.
During the meeting, Gudako used a communicator to contact Roman.
"Gorgons are female monsters in Greek mythology who kill heroes. The eldest sister is Stheno, the second sister is Euryale, and the youngest sister is Medusa.
Roman's voice came through the communicator on Gudako's wrist.
"Whether it was due to the Holy Grail of the Magic King or some other reason that she drifted here, in any case, she has regained her former appearance and majesty. Judging from the appearance of her that you have seen, the ability to give birth to magical beasts, 'PotniaTheron,' was probably obtained through the Holy Grail."
Leonardo da Vinci followed up with his own words.
"I think so too, there are no legends about Gorgons being able to give birth to monsters."
Upon hearing this, Merlin immediately laughed.
“You’re right, Leonardo da Vinci. The tragedy of Gorgon began when his younger sister Medusa angered Athena, the great goddess of Olympus.”
"Medusa was transformed into a monster by the goddess. Her two older sisters, feeling sorry for their younger sister, moved with her to the isolated island of 'The Island of No Return.' Humans, incited by Athena, regarded the three sisters as monsters and desperately tried to capture and destroy them."
"Although Medusa defeated many heroes, she eventually turned into a monster and absorbed her two beloved sisters into her body."
"She lost her mind due to excessive persecution and prejudice, and from this arose the primordial goddess Gorgon, who possessed the divinity of the three sisters. This must be the reason for her extraordinary hatred of humanity."
Gilgamesh sighed after hearing what Merlin had to say.
"The banished goddess has returned as a vengeful goddess."
Merlin nodded.
"But this is only one of the three goddesses. However, judging from Ishtar's testimony, Gorgon is the leader of the 'Alliance of the Three Goddesses.'"
With Merlin's words, all eyes turned to Ishtar.
Ishtar, whose wrists were still tightly bound by chains, suddenly felt somewhat lost.
"Why are you all looking at me like that? I have absolutely no intention of attacking Uruk right now, and I can't do it in this state anyway. I'm just an outsider right now."
Ishtar said.
After witnessing Shirou's overwhelming dominance over Gorgon, even a pig would understand that continuing to oppose Uruk would inevitably lead to encounters with this man, who wouldn't so easily grant her 'death'.
Given this guy's perverted interests, he's capable of anything.
Thinking about this, Ishtar shuddered with a sense of lingering fear.
After everyone looked away, Merlin spoke first.
"There is one pillar in the 'Three Goddess Alliance' that has not yet appeared, and that is Quetzalcoatl."
Chapter Thirty-One: Quetzal Koyatl
"In the end, Quetzalcoatl did not kill anyone and was essentially benevolent."
At this moment, Gilgamesh spoke.
"Bring that leopard man here!"
Soon, Ushiwakamaru, with one hand on his sword, led the goddess, who was dressed in a cheetah suit, into the Divine Tower.
Even though Shirou bound him with "Heaven's Chains", the leopard man was still very active. Even with his combat power greatly reduced, he was still not someone that ordinary soldiers could handle.
Therefore, at this moment, the leopard man can only be detained by Ushiwakamaru, who possesses the strength of a heroic spirit.
At that moment, the leopard-man had a piece of lamb chop in his mouth, chewing it with relish.
What made her not want to run away immediately after arriving in Uruk was not only her fear of Shirou's power, but also the irresistible taste of the mutton, which made her linger and become deeply engrossed in it.
"After feeding you for so many days, it's time you said something, isn't it?"
Gilgamesh asked.
"What do you want to know?" the leopard-man asked, tearing into a roasted lamb chop.
“Details about Quetzalcoatl,” Gilgamesh said.
"I see..." The leopard-man nodded and then began to explain.
Quetzal Coyatt is one of the supreme beings in the Aztec mythology of Central and South America. She appears to be free-spirited, but is actually a kind and wise goddess.
Quetzalcoatl abhorred human sacrifice and deeply loved humanity. He was the god of life and harvest, the god of culture, the god of wind and rain, and for a time, he was also said to be the god of the sun.
She is the manifestation of the Supreme Being (through a split spirit), and in this extraordinary situation, Quetzal Coyatter reveals a completely new side that no one knew before: a god who deeply loves the struggle for freedom that flourishes in modern Mexico and Mexican wrestling.
...She wasn't hailed as a wrestling goddess. She just really enjoyed wrestling.
After everyone present had listened to the leopard-man's account, Gilgamesh spoke first.
“Then you shall lead them to where Quetzal Koyatell is.”
Upon hearing this, the leopard-man's face immediately fell.
"I'm not going! Kukul will definitely beat me to a pulp!"
She immediately retorted.
However, Shirou didn't give her a chance to continue making a fuss. He stepped forward, grabbed her by the back of her collar, and dragged her away.
"No! I don't want to go—!"
The terrified screams of the leopard-man echoed through the tower.
……
Outside the Temple of the Sun, inside the tropical jungle.
The flying pterosaurs circled in the sky, trying to stop the enemies that were invading this place.
"Leave this to me!" Anna declared, swinging her scythe and crushing the pterosaurs soaring in the sky one by one.
As they continued to approach the Temple of the Sun, Roman's somewhat anxious reminder came through the communicator on Gudako's wrist.
"The magical reaction is expanding; the target has been spotted!"
After passing through the tropical jungle, the group arrived at an open space below the Temple of the Sun.
Standing atop the temple is a woman with wavy blonde hair. Her figure appears slender and delicate, but as a goddess, this is merely a deceptive appearance.
"Oh, I knew you'd come! It was worth waiting here!"
Quetzal Koyatl spoke with great excitement.
Then, she saw Ishtar in the group and immediately mocked her.
"How weak, Ishtar, to have been captured by a bunch of guys like this~"
"Tch..." Ishtar snorted coldly, turning her face away and ignoring Quetzalcoatl's taunts.
Roman's voice came through the communicator on Gudako's wrist again.
"See that? That behind that goddess is the Sunwalking Aztec Calendar Stone, Quetzalcoatl's second Noble Phantasm! It's a giant stone from ancient Aztec times that shows the past, present, and future of the world, and it's also the source of her power!"
Gudako stared intently at the giant stone disc.
"In other words, as long as that is destroyed!"
Seeing Gudako's gaze, Quetzalcoatl smiled.
"Looks like you guys noticed that too, right? Sure, I'll accept any challenge, because I enjoy it!"
Quetzal Koyatl spoke as he walked down the steps, carrying his serrated greatsword.
"Humans are truly creatures that are worth bullying from head to toe~"
"The value of bullying?" Gudako was taken aback.
“Yes! I love you humans! That’s right, humans are our reason for living!” Quetzalcoatl replied with a smile.
"If humanity is your reason for living, then why destroy humanity?!" Gudako asked.
No, that's not true.
“It’s not just that they can’t survive if they don’t do it,” Ishtar began.
Quetzal Koyatl also spoke up at this moment.
"I cannot survive without toying with humanity; that is my divinity." As he descended the last step, Quetzalcoatl stood on the same flat ground as everyone else. "Humanity has evolved because of this threat, and I am very pleased about it!"
"Is this your true nature as a god...?" Anna said in a deep voice.
"Yes, so I never intended to destroy humanity. Please feel free to escape this threat."
With that reply, Quetzalcoatl leaped forward, slashing his serrated greatsword down at Gudako, his target.
Gudako's expression changed slightly upon seeing this scene. She tried to dodge, but was so intimidated by the goddess's aura that she couldn't move.
clang----!
A finely crafted, white-gold greatsword, shaped like a work of art, stood firmly in front of her, sparking fiercely as it clashed with the serrated greatsword.
"Oh? You were actually able to block my power. Not bad, human~"
Quetzalcoatl looked at Shirou beside him, then drew his sword and charged at him.
"A goddess of power, huh?" Shirou's right hand, holding the sword, flicked slightly.
