Crossover Anime: Picking up Medea at the Start

These problems would have been mostly resolved once the injected magic dissipated, but unfortunately, Lady Tohsaka had another trick up her sleeve—something taught to her by someone unknown, which she named the Tohsaka Repair Method.

In other words, if you encounter a faulty appliance, just take a picture of it!

Before Rin Tohsaka smashed the TV, Ishtar couldn't understand why Ilya called Rin Tohsaka "Devil Muscle Rin," and she didn't know why Rin Tohsaka had that nickname.

But when she saw her Tohsaka-style repair method, she understood!

The act of flattening a TV is not difficult in itself.

But... how could there be such a stupid person?

And she even has the nerve to call herself a modern person!

However, after hearing Rin Tohsaka's classic three-part statement—that the technological device was a trap, that the device was faulty, and that the TV wasn't broken by a weak girl like me—Ishtar decided not to say anything more about it.

after all...

If it had worked, that scene would have happened!

So after a series of "oh yes yes yes," Ishtar promptly changed the subject to avoid making Rin Tohsaka angry and embarrassed, and causing her to take out her phone again!

An explosion at the airport would be quite troublesome...

"Roland's visit this time, and the mobilization he made in the God Group communications, it seems that Roland is planning to take action against the situation on the Dead Apostles' side."

"I just don't know which of the three factions on the Dead Apostles' side Roland intends to target."

Ishtar changed the subject, and Rin Tohsaka sat down on a public chair in the lobby, arms crossed, regaining her Tohsaka elegance, and then slowly began to speak.

"I don't think Roland's purpose is that simple. Simply wanting to interfere in the Dead Apostle War is not in his interest... The Dead Apostles are now divided into the White Princess's side, the Black Princess's side, and the White Wing Duke's side. Whether they fight or maintain the current situation, it will bring great turmoil to the mystical side of Europe."

"Roland wants to get involved in this situation, and I think it's probably not just about the Dead Apostles, but also about the Mage's Association. Otherwise, if he didn't intend to take advantage of the Mage's Association's misfortune, why would he have mobilized them?"

"Especially that Far East Magic Association, you can tell from the name alone that he definitely has something in mind."

Rin Tohsaka does have some sense when it comes to gossip and technology.

Ishtar, as a goddess, disdains to engage in the convoluted and complicated things that Rin Tohsaka happens to do.

The two of them have now achieved a clever yet somewhat strange complementarity.

"Why is it so troublesome... But putting everything else aside, that White Princess came here a while ago, and she headed west just the day before yesterday. I saw her from afar, and I have to say, she's dangerous."

"And something's not right with Lord Whitewing either... I don't think there's anything wrong with his elite Dead Apostles, Nero Chaos, Anhans, and the like, but I don't know why, every time I face those guys under him, my intuition tells me that it's best not to get involved with them."

"That Black Princess hasn't been seen since the last conflict with the White Wing Duke. I wonder where she's gone now."

"So if Roland really has something in mind, things here might not be so simple."

Ishtar was confident in her own strength, and the guys in the gods were all quite capable, plus Roland and that Artoria who had reached the Divine Realm.

Sajou Aika seems to have some connection to my side as well.

There are indeed quite a few combat forces that can be mobilized.

But after she saw Bai Ji and sensed the strange situation on Bai Yi Gong's side, she felt that it would be very troublesome to devour all these guys!

Moreover, according to Rin Tohsaka, Roland's goals extend beyond these...

"Yes, I'll talk to him when he gets here."

Rin Tohsaka nodded after hearing Ishtar's words.

Although she felt that Roland should have some plans, he hadn't been in Europe for a while and might not be aware of the current situation, so she would at least remind him.

"Yes, you..."

Ishtar had originally planned to have Rin Tohsaka ask Roland about his plans after they met, but just as she was about to speak, she saw the figure walking out with the crowd through Rin Tohsaka's eyes.

Then the words she was about to say were swallowed back instantly. Although she was stunned with surprise at that moment, she felt extremely relieved. All her previous worries disappeared. She felt that even if all the Europeans were tied up, they could easily crush them!

To explain why it suddenly expanded...

That's because Ishtar, standing beside Roland, saw someone who looked incredibly familiar yet whom she could hardly believe was there... a god!

Not someone else.

It is Tiamat, whom Ishtar calls her mother!

....

50. Ishtar and Tiamat

Ishtar had witnessed Tiamat's power.

She didn't think she would admit her mistake.

Even from this distance, Ishtar could still sense Tiamat's terrifying divine scale!

Appearances can be faked, moves can be faked, but divinity can never be faked!

So even though Ishtar had never seen Tiamat's appearance, she still recognized her—that person was her mother!

Perhaps because she had just been discussing the situation in Europe with Rin Tohsaka, Ishtar suddenly felt relieved and even a little smug the moment she saw Tiamat.

It's like a child who has found a parent to rely on.

With Tiamat around, virtually any unexpected situation can be prevented!

The opponent's power is such that it can render all schemes ineffective!

That power is absolute!

But after a brief moment of relief, Ishtar's eyes widened again as she realized what had happened.

"Why is Mother here?!"

She greeted Rin Tohsaka, who had run over to Roland, and then took control of her body, directly questioning Roland and Tiamat.

As for Roland, Eltruch and the others had already disembarked before the plane landed and gone to the Umbrella Corporation's ship.

After all, if we were to announce the return of Altrouge at its peak to the whole of Europe, then we would need to make some preparations there.

Roland planned to take this opportunity to visit Northern Europe.

So it's just him and Tiamat here.

When Roland heard Rin Tohsaka, who had been talking about Ayaka Sajou, suddenly say this, he was stunned for a moment before realizing that it must be a change of personnel.

When Tiamat heard Ishtar call her "mother," she immediately moved closer to her and took her hand.

"Ishtar...it's Ishtar~!"

Tiamat's soft voice carried a hint of happiness.

Although she was abandoned by the children, Tiamat never resented anyone, and was simply overjoyed to see Ishtar again.

Seeing Tiamat like this, Ishtar fell silent.

Before merging with Rin Tohsaka, Ishtar was a god with almost no humanity.

God is very capricious and self-centered.

It's similar to Ishtar in FSF, or even more serious.

Therefore, such a god would not feel any guilt.

Did I do something wrong?

No, God cannot be wrong!

God is right in everything He does. If you think God is wrong, then you are trying to understand God with human nature, which is the narrow-mindedness of an ant!

If we were to ask Ishtar to evaluate divinity now, it might not be the absolutely rational assessment that many people would give from an objective perspective. As the person involved, recalling those messy events, her assessment might be purely one of good and evil.

Many divine races are like this.

For example, fairies or the like.

But Ishtar is different now. After regaining her humanity, she felt guilty when she saw Tiamat.

Although abandoning Tiamat back then wasn't exactly a mistake, since Tiamat was one with the Sea of ​​Life and wasn't even bound by the self-imposed constraints of the Fate Maiden, it's unclear whether Tiamat had a clear will; all that's known is that Tiamat's divinity truly existed.

Moreover, once the Sea of ​​Life appears on the new land, it will transform into human evil, becoming the second beast, which will bring immense trouble.

From a human perspective, what they did was certainly the right thing to do.

Because there is no soil in the new world that can support the sea of ​​life.

But as for Ishtar, she began to feel that she was wrong.

In any case, she shouldn't turn around and confront Tiamat, who is considered her mother.

After meeting Artoria, although she didn't say it or show it, she thought this more and more in her heart.

After all, Artoria was leading Britain, and her situation was similar to when she was exiled to Tiamat.

Britain, too, was not accepted by the new era following the Age of Gods; as the last fragment of the Age of Gods, it deserved to be destroyed.

But even knowing this, Artoria still stood with her people and led the resistance.

Perhaps this is the difference between humanity and divinity.

Artoria looked silly and stupid... but also kind of cool.

Sometimes Ishtar wondered if they should have stood with their mother to fight against so-called fate.
