FATE: Target of Grand Master

"We've come at just the right time. We're exactly in need of the strength to fight against the 'Goddess of Warcraft,' Gorgon."

Xia Yan spoke to Quetzal and the leopard man who had just arrived at the North Wall front.

"Cú Chulainn Alter and Red Hare are the only ones holding off the monster horde below, and they're struggling a bit. One of you can deal with the Gorgons, and the other can help clear out the monsters."

"Wow, you're going to beat up your former colleague right away, Quetzalcoatl, good luck."

After hearing Xia Yan's words, the leopard man leaped down from the north wall without saying a word. The tiger skin sash whistled as he fell, but the leopard man didn't care at all. After landing steadily, he took out his tiger claw club and began to clear out the monsters.

"Tch, she got away."

Quetzal made a face that looked exactly like a vicious villain, then stopped talking and prepared to charge at the Gorgon.

"Quetzal, wait a moment, please bring Euryale along."

"Xia Yan, this is a battlefield, not a place for a little princess to play around."

Quetzal initially wanted to refuse, but then he remembered Euryale's relationship with Gorgon and changed his mind, saying to Euryale, "Are you sure you really want to go? She might have completely forgotten about you, or she might kill you in a fit of rage. After all, she's so big, I don't have the energy to fight and protect you at the same time."

"I don't need your protection. It's just that it's a bit troublesome for me to get to her alone. You just need to help me break through the monster tide."

Seeing Euryale's resolute attitude, Quetzal said no more, grabbed Euryale's waist, and placed his feet on the side wall of the north wall.

"Hurry up."

With a powerful leap, Quetzalcoatl, carrying Euryale, jumped directly over the north wall side, leaving a noticeable crack in the wall.

Gorgon, who was firing magic beams at Cú Chulainn Alter and Red Hare below the North Wall, immediately sensed a figure rapidly approaching him.

Upon recognizing the newcomer, Gorgon roared again, "Sun Goddess, have you also betrayed us and gone to the side of humanity?"

Since the "Goddess of Calamity" and the "Goddess of the Sun," who broke the "Six Goddess Alliance" contract, have both betrayed humanity and sided with humankind, Gorgon has reason to suspect that the "Goddess of the Underworld," who was the first to break the contract, has also sided with humankind.

Now things are really messed up. Three of the six goddesses are traitors, and for a moment it's impossible to tell which side is the real traitor.

"Gods are supposed to do whatever they want, so don't try to bind my free spirit with your simple rules and concepts."

As he spoke, Quetzal delivered a flying kick, striking Gorgon in the chest.

The incredibly elastic sensation came from the soles of my feet. Thanks to the enormous size of Gorgon's body, which provided an extra-large cup of daifuku, Gorgon's body only leaned back, but he did not fall down.

Just as the Gorgon was preparing to launch a counterattack, a delicate and adorable figure appeared in front of her enormous head.

"Who are you? Ugh—ah!!! Jingu! Jingu! Where are you? Quickly help Mother get rid of this guy."

Despite not recognizing Euryale, Gorgon covered his head, letting out a painful groan, instinctively trying to avoid her.

Seeing this, Kingu sensed something was wrong and tried to attack Euryale, but was intercepted by Ibuki with the Kusanagi sword.

"So you don't recognize me anymore, Medusa."

Euryale's voice wasn't loud, but it reached Gorgon's ears very clearly.

Countless strange yet familiar fragments flashed through Gorgon's mind. The two perfect girls, the older sister and himself, who was much taller in comparison, had to hide on a remote, deserted island to escape the humans who came seeking fame, either to kill monsters or to propose marriage, all for the sake of gaining the heroic reputation of killing monsters or marrying goddesses.

Even so, humans continued to harass them. In order to protect her two sisters who were powerless to fight, Medusa killed all the humans who would only attract more people if she let them go.

However, this approach did not curb the number of humans landing on the island. On the contrary, as the number of deaths increased, her infamous reputation grew, and more and more people came to the island just to gain fame.

Medusa had no choice but to continue killing, killing relentlessly, and killing incessantly.

Thus, in the process of killing humans time and time again, Medusa began to become demonic, until she fell so low that she devoured her two older sisters in the name of protection.

Thus, the "Goddess of Warcraft," Gorgon, was born.

Although her body has been corrupted and demonized, Gorgon's spiritual foundation is still Medusa, and she will still instinctively want to run away after hearing Euryale's voice.

"ah!!!"

The five snake heads formed from strands of hair simultaneously emitted beams of magic, sweeping wildly across the sky as if trying to drive away the small figure that terrified her.

"Little princess, why didn't you hide?"

Quetzal used his pterosaur to fly in front of Euryale and kicked away the beam of light that was being hurled at her.

"How could my sister hurt me?"

Euryale's words instantly reminded Gorgon of what he had heard when he devoured his two older sisters.

"Medusa, I know you wanted to protect us, so don't feel guilty. We believe you didn't do it to hurt us."

"No! I failed to protect my sisters. It was me, it was me who killed you all!"

Gorgon seemed to recognize Euryale.

"It's alright, Medusa. I will forgive you. Now, stop your attack and come to me. I hope we can be reunited."

Euryale extended her hand to Gorgon, and in response, Gorgon slowly raised his own hand as well.

Upon seeing this, Jingu became anxious.

The best outcome for it would be if the attack succeeded, but if it failed by accident, as long as the Gorgon was defeated and the true Tiamat was awakened, Kingu could accept it. The only thing it could not accept was that the Gorgon was influenced or bewitched and went to the human side completely.

This would have been an impossible situation for Gorgons who hated humans to the core, but unexpectedly, the other party appeared to be the sister of Medusa, the predecessor of Gorgons. If Gorgons were truly moved, the long-cherished wish of their true mother to return would be aborted.

Fortunately, it also came with Tiphon as insurance.

"Your wish will not come true!"

At the entrance of a hidden cave not far away, Typhon denied Euryale's wish for a reunion.

The Gorgon's raised arm froze in mid-air.

"No! I can't go back! I am Tiamat, not Medusa!"

As if explaining, or perhaps roaring, Gorgon suddenly turned and burrowed into the ground to escape.

Everyone who witnessed this was stunned.

The dignified "Goddess of Warcraft" actually abandoned the still terrifyingly large army of warcraft surrounding her and chose to escape alone.
