"Hmph, I can throw my things away or pick them up whenever I want. What's it to you?"
Ishtar responded defiantly, but her confidence seemed inexplicably lacking.
After saying that, she got back on Ma Anna's train and prepared to leave.
Gilgamesh sneered:
"Ishtar, a goddess of such high status, is actually running away with her tail between her legs?"
"I just came back to my dorm to get my pillow."
Ishtar slowly rose into the air, nonchalantly saying:
"To gaze upon Uruk as one pleases, to draw the bow as one pleases, to ravage the earth as one pleases—that's all there is to it."
"Goodbye, naked King Uruk, may you live in harmony with the northern monsters!"
Before leaving, Ishtar seemed to have thought of something, and smiled down at Siduri:
"By the way, Siduri, if Gilgamesh dies, I can still consider saving Uruk, so let's prepare the white flag first."
"white flag?"
"And Chaldea,"
Ignoring Siduri's question, she looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and the other two and said:
"As a reward for last time, as long as you're willing to abandon that blond egomaniac, you're welcome to come and join me anytime!"
"So--"
Before anyone could react, Ishtar quickly left on Maana, and the temple returned to peace.
"She's just a woman who only causes trouble for others."
"...Well, never mind. Let's get back to work."
Seeing that the other party had left, Gilgamesh also withdrew his gaze and looked back at Gudao and the others in front of him, raising an eyebrow slightly as he said:
"I have to say, my opinion has indeed changed somewhat; you guys do seem to be somewhat useful."
Gudao's eyes lit up immediately:
"So--"
"but!"
Gilgamesh interrupted him, saying bluntly:
"With such meager abilities, you are far from qualified to offer advice to me!"
"As for whether you will have the chance to stand before me again in the future, that depends on your abilities."
Having said that, Gilgamesh waved his hand impatiently and said:
"Alright, step back. Don't disturb my work."
Gudao and Mashu exchanged a glance upon hearing this, then nodded happily.
"Yes!"
Come spicy!

Chapter 416 Gudako is not a queen
Although they didn't quite understand why King Gilgamesh's attitude towards them had suddenly changed, they were still quite satisfied with the progress compared to their previous helplessness.
So they prepared to leave at Gilgamesh's command, but just then, Gilgamesh spoke again:
"Who told you to come along too?"
Upon hearing his words, everyone paused slightly.
Although Gilgamesh's words were not directed at anyone, everyone's gazes were drawn to Fujimaru Ritsuka, who was mixed in with the crowd.
To be honest, due to Ishtar's sudden intervention, the situation between the two of them hasn't been fully explained yet.
However, Gilgamesh clearly had no intention of allowing them to stay any longer and listen to gossip.
Faced with Fujimaru Ritsuka's pleading gaze, the others could only return a helpless look and left the temple with curiosity.
"Although there were many unexpected events during the process, the current result is still good."
Seeing that the sun was about to set, Merlin smiled and said:
"Anyway, let's find a place to stay for today first, and then make further plans."
"makes sense."
Dr. Roman echoed weakly:
"I didn't expect King Gilgamesh to be so difficult to deal with. I can't get a word in edgewise. I'm so sorry, Ritsuka."
"It's ok."
Gudao shook his head, then looked at the temple behind him and said:
"However, the reason we were able to achieve this result is entirely thanks to Gudako's help."
At least one thing is certain: the issue of the Holy Grail that Gudako pointed out was one of the reasons for King Gilgamesh's change in attitude towards them.
"That's true."
Mashu chuckled and agreed, then asked with some curiosity:
"Judging from Gilgamesh's attitude, Gudako must be someone he knows, right?"
Dr. Roman said:
"After all, they've already decided that Gudako is from Uruk, so it's probably true."
But then Merlin laughed and said:
"That's hard to say."
His words immediately drew everyone's attention, and Gudao asked:
"Merlin, do you know anything?"
No, that's not the case.
Merlin shook his head, and amidst the speechless gazes of the crowd, looked towards the temple, smiling meaningfully:
"I just saw some interesting things."
Anna suddenly spoke up:
"Speaking of which, they said they had expectations for our performance, but they didn't say anything about what we should do, right?"
"This……"
Gudao and Mashu were stunned for a moment, then looked at each other, because it seemed that this was indeed the case.
So what should they do next?
"—Please don't worry, I will take care of everyone's livelihood from now on."
At that moment, a dignified female voice came from the direction of the temple. Everyone turned to look and saw the woman named Siduri, who had been in the temple, walking towards them.
As she approached them, Siduri smiled gently:
"I apologize for the late introduction. I am Siduri, one of the king's advisors, and also the person in charge of the sacrificial site."
Gudao quickly replied:
“Miss Siduri! My name is Fujimaru Ritsuka, and I am a Master from Chaldea.”
"Also, a white flag means surrender."
"what,"
Siduli paused slightly, then said shyly:
"I'm so sorry you noticed. You realized I hadn't understood the meaning behind Lady Ishtar's words... Oh, I see..."
Soon, her expression returned to normal, and she smiled:
"Next, I will arrange suitable accommodations for you. As for what the king said... I hope you can start with small things. I'm sure the king thinks so too."
"I will also assign you specific tasks."
"Thank you so much!"
Gudao nodded his thanks, then asked:
"Um, is Gudako alright...?"
When Fujimaru Ritsuka was mentioned, Siduri's expression became somewhat awkward, but she still managed a forced smile:
"Don't worry, since the king acknowledges that the other party is a part of Uruk, there will definitely be no problem."
Siduri's strange reaction only fueled everyone's curiosity: what exactly had happened inside?
The timeline was adjusted back slightly.
"that……"
Standing beneath the throne, looking up at Gilgamesh above, Fujimaru Ritsuka cautiously began to speak:
"Your Majesty, we probably, perhaps, don't know each other?"
"indeed so."
Gilgamesh rested one hand on the throne, carefully examining Fujimaru Ritsuka, and said:
"I have searched through my memories but have not found any trace of you. This can only mean that we have never met."
Upon hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka breathed a sigh of relief, but then asked with some confusion:
"If that's the case, then why did you say that just now?"
"Ah,"
Gilgamesh snorted and sneered:
