At the same time, my wife is myself.

Gorgon uttered incoherently, his remaining sanity clinging to him as if he were his own child, "Kill him, kill that monster!"

"I understand, Mother. I'll deal with him. You should go back and rest."

Kingu appeased Gorgon, allowing her to return to her temple, while she herself unleashed the Chains of Heaven to attack Senju.

The Chains of Heaven are chains that are specifically designed to attack gods; the stronger the divinity, the greater the power.

As a god-slayer, and having synchronized with Athena, the sheer amount of divinity within Qian Yuan is undeniable. Even Jingu mistook him for a god descended to earth and showed him considerable mercy.

Qianyuan immediately realized she was faking it. The two fought and ran, and once they were far enough away from Gorgon's Blood Temple, Jingu stopped attacking.

"Who are you? Why do you have your mother's scent on you? And you look a bit like Ereshkigal."

He paused for a moment, then added, "Not Gorgon, but the true Mother Goddess. Although you also have the aura of Gorgon, you should understand what I mean."

Of course I understand. Tiamat, after all, Athena, the goddess of the underworld, is a descendant of Tiamat, the goddess who rules the underworld, and also Medusa.

Qian Yuan, whose divine nature has a very complex origin, was clearly regarded as one of Jingu's own.

Qianyuan asked her a question: "Jingu, do you think there is anyone in this singularity who can rival the Mother Goddess?"

"of course not."

Jingu's face was proud and his demeanor reserved. "Whether it's that magician or King Gilgamesh, they're all just chickens and dogs. My mother was just accidentally ambushed and trapped in a dream. Once she wakes up, everyone will be punished."

“The old life will dissipate and be replaced by a new life designed by the mother, who will create a completely new world.”

At this point, Jin Gu became somewhat excited, but upon seeing the Blood Temple in the distance, his expression became somewhat complicated.

Tiamat is now in a deep sleep, and the only way to awaken her is to kill the Gorgon who has synchronized her powers.

She is the same monster goddess who, despite being driven mad, is influenced by Tiamat's special powers and treats her like her own child, refusing to attack her.

In fact, although she was attacking Uruk, which was resisting the monster tide, she was not using her full strength.

Because she was waiting for Gorgon's death, waiting for her true mother to awaken.

Qianyuan asked, "Do you really think that Mother's being trapped in the dream was just an accidental attack?"

Jin Gu frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

Qianyuan said, "Can't you see the self-sealing she has placed? It's a Noble Phantasm of C+++ level."

"Lamenting and hating the fact that humanity collectively exiles others because of the unconscious thought 'we don't need you anymore,' yet their deepest consciousness accepts it as 'it's something we can't help.'"

Its origin lies in the returning beast of the 'Mother,' which, even in its final moments, retains the desire to become humanity's protector; this self-sealing is its physical manifestation.

Qianyuan looked into the void. If [Self-Sealing] were quantified, Tiamat would normally seal herself, dealing damage equal to 50% of her total health per second.

In extremely rare circumstances, if Tiamat loses her mind and tries to emerge from the sea, the seal will increase the instantaneous damage to 90% as a warning.

Even under these circumstances, it was only through a confluence of favorable timing, location, and circumstances that they managed to defeat Tiamat.

Without this self-sealing mechanism, Chaldea would have been unable to overcome this singularity.

Qianyuan sighed, "She couldn't suppress her urge to cover the whole world with the Sea of ​​Life and recreate life, nor could she suppress her love for the original children. She was painfully torn between these two completely opposite thoughts. Perhaps falling into a deep sleep was the best choice for her."

Jingu's face darkened: "So you mean to let Mother continue to be fooled by that magician and fall into a deep sleep? You really are a traitor!"

"I can't say for sure who the traitor is."

Qianyuan scoffed, "Oh no, although you claim to be the child of the Mother Goddess every day, you don't actually care about her thoughts. You just suffer, that's strange. Are you really her creation? Or are you Goetia's creation?"

"After all, you just seem to want to carry out Goetia's order to destroy the world. Calling her 'Mother' is just like calling Gorgon 'Mother'—it's all a stopgap measure to achieve your goals, isn't it?"

She was ridiculed by Qian Yuan, who even denied her identity as the son of Tiamat. She had always been proud of this identity and felt that after creating a new world and a new species, she was everyone's elder brother.

When her lifelong ideals were so wantonly trampled and mocked, Jin Gu's anger instantly reached its peak. Her eyes turned blood red with rage, and her whole body was filled with an almost tangible killing intent.

"Go to hell!"

She shouted sharply, and suddenly swung the Heavenly Chains in her hand. Golden chains instantly spread across the sky, as if enveloping the entire space in their power. The chains tore through the sky, carrying an unparalleled killing intent, heading straight for Qian Yuan, intending to completely devour him in this golden torrent.

Under the sublime divinity of Sengen, the power of the Chains of Heaven was brought to its fullest potential.

Unfortunately, the gaps between the chains were too wide.

Qianyuan calls upon the power of the white horse:

"For victory, come quickly to me! Immortal sun, grant me a radiant steed! Spiritual steed with divine hooves, bring forth the halo symbolizing your lord!"

The sky was suddenly torn apart by a dazzling light, and a magnificent steed, shining like the sun, pierced the heavens, descending from the sky with endless flames.

The intense light turned the entire battlefield golden, as if even the air was burning. Wherever the white horse passed, the earth withered and the vegetation burned, as if the end of the world had arrived.

Qian Yuan didn't intend to kill her intentionally, so his target wasn't himself, but rather the chosen Jingu. However, the more evil deeds he committed, the greater the power of the white horse would be. If Jingu died, it wouldn't matter.

"This is an attack at the level of divine authority. This guy really is a god."

Jin Gu's expression changed drastically, and the chains immediately went back to defend, wrapping herself up in layers of dense fabric as protection.

Blazing flames fell from the sky like meteors, crashing down with devastating force.

In an instant, the earth trembled, flames soared into the sky, and everything within a hundred miles was mercilessly devoured. The once vibrant land was turned into scorched earth in the flames, and the air was filled with the scorching heat and the smell of death, as if even the sky had been dyed blood red.

The scalding Chains of Heaven were released, and Kingu, covered in burns, crawled out. If the Holy Grail had not continuously provided magic power within her, even though this body was a weapon created by the gods, and even though the Chains of Heaven had been strengthened to the extreme because of that divinity, she would not have escaped death.

The weapons forged by the gods were designed to target Gilgamesh, but they actually unleash their greatest power when facing demigods. Most gods possess terrifying authority, and chains alone cannot defeat such gods.

Unless they are Medusa's two sisters, those kinds of gods can be easily tied up and used for some exciting fun.

Jin Gu, dragging his broken body, originally intended to return to the Blood Temple, but Qian Yuan's words from before resurfaced in his mind:

Your calling her "mother" is just like calling Gorgon "mother"—it's all a stopgap measure to achieve your goals.

I am absolutely loyal to my mother!

Jin Gu wanted to refute this, but Qian Yuan was already gone, and no one was listening to her argument.

She gazed at the Temple of Blood, but ultimately didn't go there. Silently, she turned away, intending to find a secluded place to lick her wounds.

Her expression was somewhat confused. Had I really done something wrong? Did Mother really not want to destroy the world?

When she was feeling lost, she met that king who shone with a golden hue.

"Gilgamesh?"

Jingu was not ready to face this king directly. She became wary, only to find that the king had no intention of fighting.

"Are you here to mock me? Did you summon that guy too?"

"He was just an unexpected reinforcement."

When Gilgamesh faced King Gu, he did not have that domineering air. “However, I also heard your previous conversation. You are confused, aren’t you?”

"It is also the king's duty to guide the confused people."

Kingu couldn't help but say, "I'm not Enkidu, not your old friend. You don't need to waste your time on me."

"Can't you understand unless I explain it clearly, you big idiot! Even if our hearts are different and our souls are different, your body is still the only Heavenly Lock on this earth!"

"Hmph. That guy always insists he's a weapon. If he adopts his argument, then it's only natural that I care about you. After all, you're like the successor to the weapon I trusted most in the past! What's wrong with showing a little favoritism!"

Gilgamesh rarely showed his arrogant side: "Regardless of your mother or birth background, just do what you really want to do, just like the old me and that guy."

His snake-like red eyes gave Jin Gu a deep look:

"Think carefully about what you really want to do."

After saying that, he left, and Jin Gu felt somewhat irritated:

"What on earth is that guy up to? Why did he come all this way just to say those random things?"

"What I really want to do..."

Kingu recalled Qianyuan's description of Tiamat.

"Is Mother truly in pain? Could that creature be a child she created? That complex divinity contains so much; was it designed to be the god-king of the new world?"

Qianyuan was unaware that Jingu regarded him as the god-king created by Tiamat, and he had no interest in knowing Jingu's thoughts.

Because his plane crashed.

Qianyuan left using the Divine Foot Technique she learned from Luo Hao. However, due to her lack of proficiency, she lost her bearings and collided with someone in mid-air, causing both of them to fall to the ground.

Fortunately, he was tough and unharmed, and the person he bumped into was no ordinary person either.

She wore a crown, and her magnificent gold jewelry jingled around her snow-white neck and wrists. Her jewel-encrusted skirt billowed like waves in the ethereal wind, and her bare waist gleamed with a honey-colored sheen in the sunlight.

One long, beautiful leg was completely naked, while the other was clad in a stocking, resembling both an inviolable deity and a seductive allure.

More importantly, her beautiful and delicate face carried the willfulness of a young girl, and she looked exactly like Rin Tohsaka.

At this time and place, with this face, it could only be that goddess.

Ishtar.

Originally a fierce goddess, she became easy to get along with because the person she possessed was kind-hearted. She also inherited the person's greed, tendency to mess things up at crucial moments, tsundere and other traits.

"it hurts!"

Ishtar rubbed her thin chest, feeling as if the already sparse flesh was about to be dented from the impact.

She glared at Qian Yuan, who was completely unharmed: "Do you know who I am? I am the goddess of nature and harvest, the goddess of love, war and childbirth, the embodiment of beauty, the symbol of Venus, Ishtar! How dare you offend the great goddess! I will not forgive you unless you offer me ten thousand catties of gold and jewels!"

Qian Yuan's lips twitched: "Luckily, this is an open wilderness, otherwise there wouldn't be enough room for so many people. Besides, how dare you rob me? Do you know who I am?"

At this point, he no longer concealed his aura, and the divinity of multiple gods manifested in him.

Ishtar was stunned. Was she not a mortal, but a god?

But why is there the aura of the Mother Goddess? Something's not right. The sky, the sea, the underworld, victory, wisdom...

She was the daughter of Anu, the god of gods, and held a high position. She was very familiar with this aura, which was clearly a composite authority that only the supreme god-king could wield.

When did such a powerful god-king emerge in Sumer?

"who are you?"

"I am your father."

Chiyuki's answer enraged Ishtar, who grabbed the Sky Boat Horse Anna and was about to shoot Chiyuki:

"Don't think I'm someone you can mess with."

"It was just a joke. I'm sure the beautiful and magnanimous Lady Ishtar will forgive me."

Qianyuan took out a gem the size of a human head, which shone brilliantly in the sunlight.

"This is my small apology."

Ishtar's eyes lit up when she saw the enormous gem:

"You're pretty savvy, aren't you?"

She eagerly snatched the gem, admiring its dazzling halo with delight.

Such a large, dazzling gem, with such a perfect shape, is beyond priceless. Even with her best efforts to amass wealth, no gem in her treasury can compare to it.

There was no other way; she hadn't been summoned for very long, and there wasn't much to be gained from the common people—their wealth was all in Gilgamesh's treasury.

Seeing Ishtar's infatuated expression, Chiyori smiled without saying a word.

This is the culmination of human wisdom and the power of technology!

As an intelligence herald, Chiyuki naturally made preparations based on the personalities of each key figure in the Seventh Singularity.

Gemstones like these can be easily manufactured using human technology.

Of course, due to time constraints and the concern that the greedy goddess might discover any minor flaws, Qianyuan only had her assistant, Prometheus, provide the design based on the available gem information. All the gems were handcrafted by Bronya, the Herrscher of Reason, according to the design.

This is a truly flawless gemstone, without any blemishes.

Qianyuan prepared a hundred such gems, but he wouldn't take them all out. Scarcity increases value; if Ishtar obtained them too easily, or if she found an abundance of gems, they would become cheap.

"You're really something."

Ishtar patted Chiyori on the shoulder, indicating that he was quite perceptive, "Could it be that you're captivated by my charm?"

She scrutinized Qian Yuan: "You're quite handsome, and you're very strong. And, for some reason, I find you very pleasing to the eye."

She found this sense of closeness somewhat strange, while Qianyuan had some guesses about it.

In one worldline, Rin Tohsaka is him, and Ishtar possesses Rin Tohsaka from a parallel world. After the synchronization of their souls and soul spaces, he can also be considered Rin Tohsaka.

It's normal for Ishtar to feel a sense of familiarity, as Rin Tohsaka and Ishtar are naturally drawn to each other.

She held onto the gemstone tightly, unwilling to let go:
