Davidian's Holy Grail War

So she reached out and took David's right hand to make her father feel a little better, at least that his loved one was with him at this moment.

"I will arrange for the treasures to be loaded onto the wagons. You can go back and prepare now. We should set off today without delay. There is no time for us to waste."

Gilgamesh was also a decisive person, not to mention that time was of the essence and no time could be wasted.

Ritsuka and the others nodded and then walked out of the divine tower. At this moment, King Gilgamesh's expression finally relaxed.

Although his imposing demeanor just now wasn't an act, he can finally rest for a bit now.

"How is it, Lord Camelot? Do you still have the strength to fight?" He looked at David, who was lying dead over there. The changes on the battlefield were too rapid, which led to this situation.

Originally, in his and Merlin's plan, the battle against the Gorgons should not have depleted Davidian's strength so much.

David raised his fist and gave a thumbs-up to indicate that he was ready to fight at any time, and Gilgamesh calmly nodded to show his approval.

At this moment, Davidian also complained, "I never thought that Ishtar would ever be so poor, but this gives us an opportunity. Dealing with the Three Goddess Alliance will be much easier now."

"After all, she has a close relationship with the third pillar goddess. I just didn't expect that she would be willing to join the Three Goddesses Alliance."

It seems that an overly lonely life can indeed easily lead people or even gods to get stuck in a rut. And what I didn't expect was that Ritsuka's unintentional act of kindness piqued that person's interest in him. This is truly intriguing.

Gilgamesh finally dropped the bombshell: Ishtar had never been a member of the Three Goddesses Alliance. Most of those present were completely unaware of this, having been kept in the dark.

Fortunately, Ritsuka and the others have already left. Otherwise, seeing their surprised expressions, Gilgamesh felt he could have boasted about eating three barley cakes and drinking three cups of ale and then laughing hysterically for another thirty minutes.

Haha ...

Chapter 255 The Wind of Freedom

The exact details of how Ritsuka tamed Ishtar's Devian are unknown, but he breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Ishtar standing there.

As expected of the last Master of Humanity, his skill level is truly remarkable; he has completely tamed even such a noisy little girl.

Of course, there was no need to pay any attention to Gilgamesh, who was laughing wildly. His laughter was so unrestrained that even Davian thought he had gone mad.

"Welcome, goddess Ishtar. Your arrival is a great help to us, and we are very grateful."

David went up to express his gratitude to Ishtar, and Ishtar nodded in return.

"The previous battle was quite spectacular, Lord Davidian Sleeryk of Camelot. How about it, are you interested in becoming my possession? I have a great appreciation for heroes and am quite tolerant of them."

Ishtar extended his hand directly to him, and everyone present stared wide-eyed at this.

As expected of the Goddess of War, she's truly a powerful and assertive woman.

Davidian shook his head without hesitation, and his attitude did not anger Ishtar; on the contrary, she even expressed understanding.

“It’s alright. Loyalty that is easily shaken is not loyalty at all. I understand your persistence as a hero, and I am also pleased to be your comrade-in-arms this time.”

Gilgamesh also stopped his ear-piercing laughter and asked Ishtar with a rather amused expression:

"How about it? You shameless goddess who ran away from home and then came back! Give me a proper explanation of how it feels to serve under my command!"

Upon hearing his words, Ishtar immediately showed a look of disgust and loudly explained:

"Who has pledged allegiance to you?! I am Ishtar, the sky goddess with unparalleled foresight, who has a contract with Master Fujimaru Ritsuka!"

Just you wait and see, this guy will definitely become a super powerful Master! Or rather, before that, no matter how he dies, I'll drag him back from the underworld!

At this point, she suddenly revealed a smug smile and continued, "Hmph! You'll see who the real winner is then!"

"Oh, Ishtar is truly the goddess of victory! I'm so unwilling to accept this! I'm going to die right now! You can say that as you roll down to the underworld!"

"You won't die, you idiot! I even let you have my dorm room. And you don't even show the slightest remorse!"

Gilgamesh retorted loudly, and to be honest, the others were starting to find it hard to watch. They were there to discuss their next strategy, not to watch the king and goddess perform a comedy routine.

So David stepped in to smooth things over: "Alright, alright! Both sides should compromise. This is a critical moment for Uruk's survival. Since the goddess Ishtar is willing to come back to help us, that's already a good thing."

“That’s right, whatever the reason. The fact that the city god could descend here is already a great honor for the high priest. Let’s let bygones be bygones regarding the ranch owner’s loss report, and celebrate the return of the goddess Ishtar first.”

Siduli also stepped in to ease the tension; she didn't want to see elementary school kids arguing.

These two were very influential, and even Ishtar and Gilgamesh were unwilling to offend them.

The two then dropped the matter, and Gilgamesh brought up another issue, namely the matter of Marduk's axe.

After all, Gorgon has now gained some of Tiamat's powers, so Marduk's Axe will likely have a special attack effect on her as well.

"As I mentioned before, the axe is kept in Eridu. I have also said that the goddess must be defeated in order. First Ishtar, then the south, and finally the north."

"Well, Ishtar, you must also know the true form of the Forest Goddess, right? We happen to have some guesses on the same subject. Why don't we compare our answers?"

Ishtar sighed. Looking at the expectant answers on the faces of the others and the glint in their eyes, she knew that they had indeed guessed something.

"I may tell you, the goddess of the southern forests is Quetzalcoatl. Like me, she is the goddess of Venus, and the great bird of the sun, the free wind of South America—Quetzalcoatl."

As soon as she said it, the group of people present immediately showed expressions of knowing and headaches; this really was a terrible draw.

After all, that's the chief god of South America, a being truly standing at the pinnacle of mythology. For such a being to come after Uruk is intimidating just to think about it.

"But isn't Quetzalcoatl a male god? How did she become a goddess here?" Dr. Roman asked, his curiosity piqued. The change was too drastic.

"Oh, right, humans don't know. The mythology of Mexico, which you're talking about, is a particularly strange one. The gods there aren't things born from this planet; they're said to have fallen from the sky."

Ishtar spoke of the South American divinity she knew.

An asteroid struck the Earth's surface, and some entity on that asteroid parasitized plants and survived. It then transformed into microorganisms that could turn local animals into gods, thus establishing the local civilization.

The divinity of South America is a transfer from human beings to human existence, so it is not surprising that there are female vessels among them.

[Oh! Thank you so much for providing such amazing information, Goddess! Earth is still incredibly profound!]

"Hmm, since it's an extraterrestrial being, it's even more difficult to deal with. After all, it's a god that can be resurrected even after the Common Era; dealing with it will probably be..."

As Gilgamesh was speaking, a loud noise suddenly came from the south. David could clearly sense that something had invaded Uruk and that it was coming very quickly!

Sure enough, soldiers had already run over. The south gate had been destroyed. A woman who called herself Quetzalcoatl had smashed the city gate and destroyed the city wall with her bare hands. Now the enemy was rushing towards the divine tower!

"Follow me!" Davidian took the lead and ran out first, with the other Servants following behind him as they advanced in the direction from which the enemy was attacking.

They really need to see what kind of thing this is now!

When he saw the enemy falling from the sky in a starfish shape, Davidian grabbed Mash who was next to him and threw her directly in that direction.

Mashu lived up to expectations, immediately adjusting her center of gravity and kicking the woman in mid-air away. Taking advantage of this opening, Ritsuka quickly evacuated the remaining Uruk soldiers, ensuring there were no more casualties.

David looked around at the scene...

A huge cloud of dust was stirred up, soldiers were crooked and twisted, buildings were broken, and there was that blonde South American-style older sister who had stood up again and was looking on expectantly.

Upon seeing that goddess, it was a rare moment when even David felt a little short of breath.

Hey hey hey... Really? Is this guy actually stronger than Gorgon?

Wow, great technique, beautiful aerial skills. I'll give you forty points!

Moreover, judging from her relaxed words, it was clear that Mashu's solid flying kick hadn't hurt her, which made things even more difficult.

Chapter 256 She's Too Strong

David stood at the front, unsure of how far he could fight the man in front of him.

All we can do now is try our best; if we can't defeat this guy, things will get really difficult.

"Alright, so you're the next opponents? Great! You all look very energetic. Let me fight you one by one until my heart explodes!"

Quetzal raised her obsidian-encrusted war club and walked forward with a smile, seemingly intending to smash David and his men's heads one by one.

"That's the goddess of South America... Quetzalcoatl. How terrifying, Master. This is the first time I've ever seen a human, and that goddess is actually smiling—a smile without hatred or hostility!"

But she kills without hesitation; it's so strange, I can't even handle her.

Mashu felt overwhelmed by the situation; she really didn't know how to fight this kind of enemy.

Enough with the small talk! Now beware of the enemy before you! Unlike the other two pillars, this is the true pinnacle of mythology!

Dr. Roman had already warned everyone in the communications that this was no joke; they were facing the pinnacle of South America.

Davian raised his sword and launched the first probing attack, but Quetzalcoatl actually grabbed Davian's holy sword with his own hand.

This scene made David's eyes widen. What the hell was this? No one, whether Gorgon, Kingu, or anyone else, had ever been able to catch his Moonshade so easily!

Before he could react, he had already flown toward the building next to him.

Next was Mashu, who bumped right into Davidian, who struggled to catch her.

But it didn't stop there. Anna flew over again and finally knocked David down. All three of them landed on the ground and suffered a great loss.

However, when David stood up, he charged forward again. This time, it was no longer the evil dragon but the evil king dragon, and the light of miracles appeared on his body.

This time, Quetzal could no longer easily block him as before; instead, she fought Davidian quite seriously.

However, David could clearly sense that the battle had turned from a game into a test, and Quetzalcoatl was indeed taking it seriously.

But she didn't want to kill their seriousness; she just wanted to see just how serious they really were.

This feeling of powerlessness and frustration is even more disheartening, but knowing this, Davidian understands the key to breaking the deadlock.

Sure enough, Quetzalcoatl stopped the attack the next moment.

She jumped out of the crowd's attack range and then applauded them. At that moment, she was like someone who had just finished exercising and was sweating profusely, feeling extremely refreshed.

"What beautiful martial arts. Since you have such a level of skill, it means you are summoned Servants. So, that cute boy is humanity's last Master?"
