I'm really not an old sword

He is only stronger than the God King Zeus.

I'm afraid that only the mechanical gods in Greek mythology can compete with him after they combine together.

But he is not a holy sword user.

Even if he had just woken up and his strength was only one tenth of what it was, he was still not something a small fry like him could deal with.

It would be fine if Tiamat woke up, realized the cruelty of reality, realized that he had 'lied' to Her, and still doted on Him as she did in her dreams.

But before she had enough power to check and balance her, Lin Qingsu absolutely did not want Tiamat to wake up.

In this regard, he agrees with Merlin and Gilgamesh.

After all, Tiamat's feelings for him may be deeper than her feelings for those human children because of those hundred years, but no one knows how much deeper. Lin Qingsu guessed that the reason why she only liked him in the dream was that Tiamat realized the illusion of the dream, but was afraid of the cruelty of reality and did not want to escape, so she deliberately escaped.

That's why she didn't want him to leave the island, to leave this only "reality".

In a way, in the dream he was the only one, he was her only real child.

But it’s different after waking up.

Even if Tiamat didn't care whether he had deceived her in his dream, Lin Qingsu felt that his importance would be greatly reduced. It was possible that Tiamat treated him as the same as other humans.

Even if she liked him and wanted to keep him, Lin Qingsu couldn't accept the idea of starting a new era from scratch.

......

"Looks like you're awake. I'll take my leave now, Brother Merlin~"

After looking at each other for a while, Mary suddenly stood up and was about to leave with a smile.

Merlin had a dead look on his face and didn't say anything.

Suddenly, a strong vibration came from somewhere.

"Ugh?!"

Mary staggered.

Merlin didn't laugh at her, but his face became serious in vain.

Soon his expression became helpless, even uglier than when he saw Mary just now, but his eyes were on Mary.

"Oh, I suddenly remembered that the cake I made at home is about to burn. I'll leave now. Bye~"

"Give me the shit you messed up with...!"

Before Merlin could finish his words, Meili transformed into a shower of flowers and disappeared into the inner sea of stars.

Merlin was left staring at the empty air in front of him, stunned.

"How come there's someone more disgusting than me?"

Chapter 11 Something's Wrong with the Gorgon

The sea returned to calm soon after.

Nothing happened.

Lin Qingsu knew that it was probably Merlin who took action. She felt relieved but also a little disappointed.

What if Tiamat still treats him as his eldest son after waking up?

But Lin Qingsu was just thinking about it. When she was about to go back, Jin Gu flew over from a distance again.

"Mother is looking for you."

......

The Gorgon's roost is in a high mountain by the sea.

Lin Qingsu followed Jingu all the way from the forest into the cave.

There are many magical beasts hiding in the forest.

Going all the way inward, until they came to a space that suddenly opened up as if the entire mountain was hollowed out, Lin Qingsu finally saw the Gorgon.

A lower body connected to the sea under the mountain.

From the lower abdomen and navel upwards, floating on the water, the body is covered with some fish scales, and the blood-red eyes on the charming face above those two huge soft masses that are not like adjectives of mountains are full of malice.

"Long time no see, little liar."

Lin Qingsu was stunned as soon as the other party opened his mouth.

"It's you?"

The only Gorgon he hadn't seen for a long time could be the one he had caught in Fuyuki.

After being imprisoned under the Einzbern Castle for a period of time, she was packed up by Lin Qingsu and sent to Tamamonomae. When Tamamonomae temporarily left Heian-kyo some time ago, Medusa seemed to have escaped.

However, apart from Tamamonomae being a little angry and increasing the security of her dungeon, Lin Qingsu didn't care.

I never thought that the Medusa had any connection with this Gorgon.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

After thinking about it, Lin Qingsu's surprised expression quickly returned to normal, and she nodded at her calmly.

Don't say that.

Originally, when she was in Fuyuki, she felt like just a snake girl.

Now that it's grown bigger, it looks so rough no matter how you look at it.

Gorgon was very unhappy with Lin Qingsu's quick recovery of her calm demeanor.

She was originally an "Avenger" and hated Lin Qingsu for being deceived and imprisoned and trained by him for such a long time. If she could not beat the fox, she would have torn the bastard to pieces long ago.

God knows how excited she was when she learned that Lin Qingsu was also here.

Gorgon's red eyes gradually turned blood red, the Avenger gene surged in his body, and he almost couldn't wait to tear the other party to pieces.

But she didn't rush into it.

Countless magical beasts rushed out from all directions, occupying all the land and exits a few meters away, staring at Lin Qingsu with a fierce look.

She wanted to see Lin Qingsu look frightened.

She wanted to return all the torture that Tamamonomae had inflicted on her to him.

As for why it was him and not the abuser Tamamonomae?

Very simple.

Because she couldn't beat Tamamonomae.

Sensing the other party's undisguised murderous intent, Lin Qingsu remained calm.

Whether it's on the surface or psychologically.

The reason is simple. Compared to Quetzal, Gorgon's battle record and performance are far too embarrassing, comparable to Ishtar who lost the "Bull of Heaven".

Don’t say anything else.

Only Ushiwakamaru and Leonidas could dance in front of her for that long.

Killing her was a bit difficult though.

But if he wanted to run, Lin Qingsu really didn't think Gorgon could stop him.

Therefore, Gorgon's plan was doomed to fail. Not only did she not see any fear on Lin Qingsu's face, but she found that as time went by, Lin Qingsu became bored and began to look at him.

Although his eyes were pure, so pure that she felt that this damn liar seemed like a different person.

But it still made Gorgon quite angry.

As an "Avenger", he couldn't control his temper very well. Now seeing this, he couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to take action immediately.

"Mother."

Gorgon looked at Kingo.

Jin Gu didn't say anything.

But Gorgon gradually calmed down, and he knew what Jingu meant.

There are several other goddesses watching covetously, the surviving humans in Uruk, Gilgamesh and the heroic spirits, and the existence of "himself".

I really shouldn't create another strong enemy.

This was also the suggestion that Jin Gu made to her when he discussed with her before inviting Lin Qingsu.

Don't do it.

Because, facing someone as powerful as Lin Qingsu, although he still couldn't defeat her, it would be quite difficult for him, Gorgon, to kill her.

He had also heard of the reputation of the Holy Sword Master.

Although Gorgon believed that he had the strength of the other party.

Even if he really used the Holy Sword of the Star, he would not die, but injury would be inevitable. Fighting to the death with this guy who was neither an enemy nor a friend would only allow other enemies to take advantage and laugh at him.

But having said that.

Gorgon couldn't swallow that.

His original intention was to scare him and see his frightened expression to calm him down. As for the old grudge, he would wait until he dealt with those lingering humans and obtained the Holy Grail before settling accounts with him.

Who knew this guy could be so bold.

In front of her, he was even more calm and composed than before, so confident that she wanted to tear his limbs apart on the spot. She could only calm down when she saw him begging for mercy with tears streaming down his face.

Gorgon couldn't bring himself to speak.

Although Jingu knew it, he didn't really regard Gorgon as his mother. He adhered to the principle of watching the show from the side as long as there was no real fight, and just doing nothing if a fight really started. It would be even better if Lin Qingsu performed exceptionally well and could wake up his "real mother" Tiamat with a single sword. Casey was leisurely on the side.

Lin Qingsu guessed what Gorgon was thinking.

He thought he could run away even if he fought, so he didn't give Gorgon any way out and waited happily to see her next reaction.

The scene was filled with such a strange atmosphere.

Jingu didn't like talking.

After living on the island for a hundred years in her dream, Lin Qingsu became very patient.

Gorgon stared at the calm black-haired and black-eyed boy on the ground. Somehow, the rage in his heart that wanted to tear the boy to pieces gradually dissipated.

Instead.

I actually find him extremely pleasing to the eye.

Want to hug him.

Sadness, excitement, joy...

All kinds of emotions burst out in his heart, and the completely different ideas scared Gorgon.

I knew something was not right with me.

But looking at Lin Qingsu again, no matter how Gorgon recalled the humiliation of being deceived and imprisoned by him, he could no longer muster up any anger.

"you..."

Gorgon was naturally embarrassed to express his thoughts.

Stopped abruptly.

However, Lin Qingsu noticed Gorgon's abnormality. After a brief moment of surprise and confusion, she began to understand a little.

Could it be that Tiamat's emotions affected her?

Kingo connected the spirits of Tiamat and Gorgon together, which is why Kingo acted as a traitor and helped Fujimaru Ritsuka and others to kill Gorgon openly and secretly. As long as Gorgon died, the huge pain would sting Tiamat in the "dream", thus waking Tiamat up.

But Lin Qingsu didn't expect it.

Tiamat's feelings for him could even affect Gorgon?

Now Lin Qingsu was also confused.

"cooperate?"

This time Lin Qingsu didn't wait any longer.

I wish I could hang you on the wall and ravage you all day long. You still want to cooperate with me? Dream on!
