I'm really not an old sword

Tamamonomae and Meili's identities and strengths are there, and their means are sufficient.

If you let others take that position, they will only be ostracized by others. After all, there is not much difference between you and me. Why should you be the boss and I be the younger?

Never underestimate human jealousy.

It's not just women. Take Lin Qingsu herself for example. If she had a second-generation rich kid or a gigolo who was not better than her in every aspect or even inferior to her, but was showing off above her because of his family background or the favor of some people, Lin Qingsu felt that she would not be happy either.

all in all.

It is said that Aika Sajo and Guinevere do not get along with Tamamonomae and Merry.

But in terms of means and strength, the two of them are really not qualified in front of Tamamonomae and Merry. Not to mention the silly Aika Sajo who has no mass support, even Guinevere, who has enough means and character, has not even managed the little piece of land in Camelot because she adjusted her "strategic approach" too late.

Even Nitocris didn't obey her.

Longominiade may look silly, but he is actually very smart.

Only Scheherazade and Phinney listened to her.

But then again, those two women listened to Nitocris and Longomeniades, and if Tamamonomae really went, there was a 99% chance that they would listen to Tamamonomae as well.

To put it bluntly, they are both decent women who just want to live a peaceful life and don't want to cause trouble.

He couldn't even cure his own family.

How could Guinevere be able to compare with Tamamonomae, who had a bunch of women under his command trained to be obedient and had them called "sister" every day?

Lin Qingsu herself couldn't get involved in this kind of thing, and there was no need to do so. Not only would she get into trouble if she did, but she would also make them sad because of her bias.

As long as none of them are bullied or isolated.

"I have several... so you can just be the co-wife, okay?"

Ereshkigal thought the other party would say that he was not coming to marry her.

Now listen to what Lin Qingsu said.

She breathed a sigh of relief. She was only worried that Lin Qingsu would change his mind, and she only cared about whether Lin Qingsu would marry her and stay with her. Deep down, she didn't realize that she cared about whether his appearance of not disliking her was fake or real.

She didn't really listen to what he said.

"Will you marry me?"

Ereshkigal felt a little shy after saying this, but he also felt that his momentum was not strong enough. Fearing that Lin Qingsu would run away, he added angrily: "No matter what, you must marry me!"

"Get married, definitely get married."

Lin Qingsu suppressed the corners of her mouth that were curled up.

"but..."

"No but!"

Ereshkigal became anxious, his aura fully released, and the temperature, which had just risen, suddenly returned to below zero.

"Then do you know what to do when getting married?" Lin Qingsu asked back.

Ereshkigal was confused by the question this time.

The aura dissipates.

The surrounding temperature slowly rose to a level that a normal person would feel slightly cool.

How would she know what to do after getting married?

Not long after living there, she was thrown into the underworld by a bunch of biased gods and was given the role of the goddess of the underworld, unable to leave the underworld for the rest of her life.

Whether it is humans or gods, seeing her is like seeing the plague god.

Forget about chatting, it would be a courtesy to her if you didn't turn around and run away.

Tens of millions of years had passed since she became the goddess of the underworld. The memories of her life in the outside world had long been vague. As for marriage, Ereshkigal only knew that after marriage, he would be her lifelong partner.

The kind where you can have a baby together.

Wait, having a baby?

Ereshkigal's eyes lit up, and he said hastily, "Of course I know. It's just giving birth!"

Lin Qingsu's expression changed.

Seeing Lin Qingsu's eyes that seemed to say that she knew a lot, Ereshkigal felt a little proud.

"Then let's have a baby."

"Yeah, having a baby."

Ereshkigal was not angry but happy after hearing this, but she nodded and felt a little embarrassed after the surprise faded.

Say a thousand words and ten thousand words.

How to give birth to a child?

Ereshkigal didn't want to say "I don't know." He lost his dignity and face, and hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to do.

Looking at Ereshkigal's humiliated look, Lin Qingsu thought she was just the strongest king who got shy when faced with practice, so she smiled and said, "Then let's wait for a while, and have a baby after we get to know each other better."

"okay."

Ereshkigal did not object. She really did not know what to do, so she agreed to avoid embarrassment.

Anyway, marriage shouldn’t just be about having children, right?

So the two of them had their own thoughts. Lin Qingsu took the initiative to suggest going to Ereshkigal's house, and Ereshkigal naturally brought her "husband" to her home.

In a rather magnificent palace.

Although the underworld looks shabby, and Ereshkigal is the complete opposite of her sister, Ishtar, the goddess of harvest, who is favored by all the gods, and is not very popular among the gods, her identity as a goddess is there.

The home where she had lived for thousands of years was decorated by her in a lively and colorful way.

Not much worse than the temple of Gilgamesh.

The only problem is that it is too empty, with no one around. The pursuit of size makes the emptiness even more apparent, making it seem a bit lonely.

But Ereshkigal was not self-conscious at all and was very happy.

along the way.

Seeing his unconcealable happiness, he glanced at Lin Qingsu from time to time, as if he really wanted to talk to Lin Qingsu but was embarrassed because of his face, and he didn't know what to say to him because he hadn't communicated with anyone for a long time. He was afraid of saying something wrong and making him angry and run away.

Endearing.

Lin Qingsu took the initiative to talk to her, and no matter what he said, she would pretend to be calm and confident, but in fact her face could not hide the joy and happiness she showed as she responded to him, which made Lin Qingsu quite amused and felt more pity for her.

"It's getting late."

They had almost finished chatting and couldn't think of what to say, so Lin Qingsu took the initiative to say goodbye.

"Are you going?"

When Ereshkigal heard that he was leaving, the smile on his face immediately disappeared.

She wanted to say something threatening to keep him here, but she couldn't bring herself to say that. She opened her mouth for a long time but couldn't utter a word.

Instead, she looked at him nervously.

He looked so pitiful that he didn't even realize it, just like a kitten worried about being abandoned by its owner.

"I'll come see you again in a couple of days."

Ereshkigal couldn't bear to hear him say such things. Millions of years of lonely life made her feel insecure.

No matter how she thought about it, she felt that Lin Qingsu would never come back after leaving.

The words "Don't go" got stuck in my throat, and when they reached my lips they became: "Don't go!"

Ereshkigal said this angrily, but his anxious, slightly red eyes looked rather pitiful.

Lin Qingsu's heart softened, and she wanted to stay here with her, but she could only smile bitterly and said, "I still have some things to deal with, and you can't leave the underworld, so I can't take you with me."

After saying that, he added: "Don't worry, I'm your husband, I will definitely come back."

Ereshkigal didn't believe it. Seeing that it had some effect, she continued to shout fiercely, "Don't leave!"

Lin Qingsu had a headache and asked, "Why don't you believe me?"

"Don't leave!"

This time, Ereshkigal stood up directly and even opened his underworld power. Lin Qingsu felt as if she was locked up, and the magic power in her body solidified like a pool of stagnant water. She was oppressed to the point of being unable to breathe.

Seems like a big win?

Lin Qingsu never expected that Ereshkigal was so insecure.

Can’t say I didn’t expect it.

But even if he thought of it, he didn't think about it. He had to fight for Ereshkigal. He couldn't just watch Fujimaru Ritsuka take away Ereshkigal, who was the easiest to conquer, right?

The enemy's numbers have decreased while ours have increased, so we have earned a hundred million for nothing.

Thinking quickly in her mind, looking at the imposing Ereshkigal, Lin Qingsu simply said, "How about this, we have a baby together, and I'll leave after that?"

Chapter 4 The Underworld Goddess Who Wants to Have a Child

"Ugh?"

Ereshkigal was confused for a moment.

She really couldn't keep up with Lin Qingsu's jumping thoughts and couldn't understand why he suddenly jumped from 'don't leave' to 'give birth to a baby'.

This has nothing to do with being stupid or not.

Anyone who hasn't communicated with others for tens of millions of years and now suddenly reacts a step slower when communicating with others is considered amazing.

"If we do that, we will be a truly contracted couple, and that can never be changed."

Lin Qingsu patiently coaxed, "Even if you don't trust me as your husband, you should at least trust the contract, right?"

Although rationally I don't want to lie to stupid kids.

But emotionally, Lin Qingsu also felt that it was not safe to just chat for a while, agree to become a verbal couple and then leave.

Who knows if Ritsuka Fujimaru will suddenly appear and use the protagonist's halo to kill him?

Only a real fight can make him feel at ease;

Even more outrageous, if they were in love at first sight and got married with the baby, that would be even safer.

"Contract?"

Ereshkigal's face was moved.

"Yes, since you won't trust me as your husband no matter what I say, how about we sign a contract first?"

Ereshkigal felt a little embarrassed when he heard this.

Lin Qingsu kept saying "I don't trust my husband", which made her feel that what she had just done was not right.

But she really didn't want to, and didn't dare to let Lin Qingsu leave.

"Then have a baby," Ereshkigal said.

......

Half an hour later.

Lin Qingsu and Ereshkigal lay naked on the big bed made of cold jade and black stone, hugging each other.

Compared with Lin Qingsu's previous record, the time is rather shabby.

But it was not war's fault. It was simply that Ereshkigal was unexpectedly unfit to be used. Lin Qingsu had just finished warming up when Ereshkigal was no longer able to do so.

"It hurts, oooooo, it hurts."

With tears in his eyes, Ereshkigal refused to let Lin Qingsu continue after the first time.

"It will be much better the second time, and it won't hurt anymore."

"No, I don't want it." Ereshkigal shook his head like a rattle.

"Don't you want to give birth to my baby?"

"Baby?"

Ereshkigal was startled, and his face, which had turned slightly pale from blood loss, showed signs of hesitation and struggle.
