Chat group: People are in the sandbox, the system just ran away

"Um, um, Lady Tiamat, do you know where the Holy Grail is?"

Thinking of the Holy Grail, Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately ran to Tiamat. After thinking for a while, he asked her about the whereabouts of the Holy Grail. After all, the Holy Grail is generally in the hands of the final BOSS in each world.

"The Holy Grail? What is the Holy Grail?"

Tiamat's pure eyes were filled with curiosity as she looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka. Why did this child come to her for the so-called Holy Grail? What was this Holy Grail?

"Uh, this Holy Grail is a golden quilt that holds a great deal of magical power. Have you ever seen it?"

Ritsuka Fujimaru organized his words and described the appearance and characteristics of the Holy Grail to Tiamat.

"No, I haven't seen anything like the Holy Grail."

Tiamat shook her head. Although she wanted to help the child, she had never seen the Holy Grail that Fujimaru Ritsuka mentioned.

"What about you, King Gilgamesh? Have you ever seen the Holy Grail?"

Since Tiamat, the final boss of the seventh singularity, doesn't possess the Holy Grail, it's possible that Gilgamesh, the king of Uruk, possesses the Holy Grail. This is what Fujimaru Ritsuka thought and did.

"The Holy Grail? I do have such a treasure in my treasury. As a reward for resolving this incident, I would be happy to give it to Chaldea."

"Great! In this way, this singularity will be complete."

When Fujimaru Ritsuka heard Gilgamesh's answer, he immediately cheered. In this way, the problem of the seventh singularity was completely solved.

"However, Master of Chaldea, you are rejoicing too soon."

Just when Fujimaru Ritsuka was happy, Gilgamesh interrupted her excitement.

"Yes, I do have the Holy Grail, and I am willing to give it to you. However, this Holy Grail is not the one you seek. Although it possesses powerful magic and miraculous powers, it is only one of my treasures, not the core of this singularity."

"Then where did the Holy Grail of this singularity go? It can't possibly disappear for no reason."

Ritsuka Fujimaru was dumbfounded. She had met all the famous people in this singularity, but none of them had the Holy Grail. So who had the Holy Grail now?

"I don't know either. Even with the Omniscience and Omnipotence, I can't find any trace of it. Perhaps you could ask Merlin. Compared to me, who has always been handling affairs in the Uruk Palace, he often wanders the land of Mesopotamia and may know more."

Gilgamesh shook his head. With a treasure of this level and the power of the Magic King Goetia entwined in the Holy Grail, his Star of Omniscience and Omnipotence would hardly play any significant role.

Merlin was overwhelmed when he saw Ritsuka Fujimaru turning around and looking at him.

"Master of Chaldea, you think too highly of me. Not only did I have to put Lady Tiamat to sleep, but I also had to gather intelligence everywhere. How could I have the energy to search for the whereabouts of the Holy Grail? However, you can ask Master Li Xuan for advice. I believe that Master Li Xuan certainly knows the whereabouts of the Holy Grail."

Looking at Fujimaru Ritsuka who finally came to visit, Li Xuan had a faint smile on his face. He looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka with a half-smile. He didn't say anything, just waited to see how Fujimaru Ritsuka could make him speak.

Fujimaru Ritsuka also understood that Li Xuan was holding him back and that he had to find the whereabouts of the Holy Grail, so he was waiting for him here. However, there was no other way, as no one else knew the whereabouts of the Holy Grail, so Fujimaru Ritsuka had to make some sacrifices.

"Good brother! Brother Li Xuan, can you just tell me? I love you the most."

Ritsuka Fujimaru hugged Li Xuan's arm and started to act coquettishly to Li Xuan in the sweet voice of a little girl.

"Stop! Stop! Stop! Ritsuka, don't do this, I'm scared. Your behavior is giving me goosebumps. I'm scared of you. Don't do this. I'll tell you the whereabouts of the Holy Grail."

Li Xuan said unhappily. He was sure that Fujimaru Ritsuka did it on purpose, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't stand Fujimaru Ritsuka in this mode. Listening to her acting coquettish, he felt uncomfortable all over.

Hearing Li Xuan's resignation, willing to reveal the Holy Grail's whereabouts, Fujimaru Ritsuka paused, appearing quite pleased with herself. However, her ears were actually reddening. After all, her earlier flirting had inevitably led to some intimate behavior with Li Xuan. If it weren't for Li Xuan, she wouldn't have resorted to such behavior.

Chapter 347: Jingu and Enkidu

"The whereabouts of the Holy Grail is actually easy to guess, because there is an important character in this singularity that we have never met, and the Holy Grail is in his hands."

Since Li Xuan had already decided to tell it, he no longer acted like this and readily told the whereabouts of the Holy Grail.

"There's another important character? Who is it?"

Ritsuka Fujimaru was a little curious. She had seen the people from Uruk, the Alliance of the Three Goddesses, and Tiamat. Was there anyone else in this singularity that she had not seen before?

"You mean? Jin Gu!"

After Li Xuan's reminder, Merlin finally remembered a person he met when he was searching for intelligence all over the Mesopotamian world.

"Yes, it is him. The Holy Grail is now in his hand, or more precisely, in his heart, the source of his actions and the source of his power."

Li Xuan confirmed Merlin's guess that the Holy Grail was indeed in Jingu's hands.

"Jin Gu? It seems to be a life created by Tiamat, but didn't Tiamat say she didn't know?"

Ritsuka Fujimaru couldn't help but feel a little strange. She didn't think Tiamat would lie.

"This Jingu is not the same Jingu. To be more precise, Goetia stole a portion of Tiamat's power while she was asleep, then mixed it with the power of the Holy Grail to create a new life. It's been less than a year since its birth."

For some reason, Gilgamesh felt as if this Jingu had some connection with him while listening to Li Xuan's story, and he couldn't help but pay attention to him.

"In that case, all we have to do is take the Holy Grail back from him. After all, Tiamat is on our side, so he probably won't refuse."

Ritsuka Fujimaru said excitedly that he felt that although there were some twists and turns, the Holy Grail would eventually not escape her grasp.

"That's right, Jingu has great respect for the Mother Goddess Tiamat."

"Great."

Just when Fujimaru Ritsuka was happy, Merlin couldn't help but secretly glance at Gilgamesh with a strange look, which made Gilgamesh inexplicably irritated and frowned.

"Merlin, why are you staring at me? Are you hiding something from me?"

"Well, I don't know if I should say this, King Gilgamesh."

Merlin didn't take Gilgamesh's glare to heart. After all, he and Gilgamesh were just partners at best. Now that this singularity was about to end, as candidates for the Grand Mage, he and Gilgamesh were equal.

"You say it."

Gilgamesh had sensed it, and his clairvoyance told him that Merlin must have been hiding something very important from him, and that he had a very deep connection with Merlin.

"Well, King Gilgamesh, while I was gathering intelligence in Uruk, I heard a rumor. I initially thought it was just nonsense, but then I saw it with my own eyes."

"Don't be secretive, just say what you want to say."

Gilgamesh was very unhappy with Merlin's procrastination. The restless feeling deep in his heart made Gilgamesh lose his usual calmness and become impatient.

"I once heard that the leader of those monsters, Kingu, looked exactly like your deceased friend, the legendary divine weapon Enkidu, the Heavenly Chain. And I've seen Kingu before. He had long, almost green hair that shone with a faint glow. He was androgynous, a beauty that transcended common sense and gender. He was about sixteen years old."

"Damn Goetia! He actually dared to defile the body of my best friend. This is unforgivable, absolutely unforgivable. This guy, Goetia, trampled on the relationship between me and my best friend. I absolutely cannot forgive him."

After listening to Merlin's description, how could Gilgamesh still not understand the truth of the matter? It turned out that Kingu was born from the body of his best friend Enkidu. This is no wonder. After all, Enkidu's essence is still the divine weapon Heaven's Chain. After Enkidu's death, it is unlikely that his body would decay and disappear in just one year. Let alone just one year, I am afraid that even if thousands of years passed, Enkidu's body would be preserved.

Gilgamesh had already buried his friend Enkidu's body properly, but he didn't expect that the despicable Magic King Goetia would disturb his friend's sleep for his own purposes. This was something Gilgamesh absolutely could not allow. In addition, Goetia used the goddess of creation Tiamat to stir up huge waves in the Mesopotamian world. Under new and old grudges, Goetia had already topped Gilgamesh's hatred list, surpassing the gods that Gilgamesh hated and reaching the top.

Even for Goetia, it would not be an easy task to suddenly encounter the full force of Gilgamesh, a top fighter.

Of course, even if the Magic King Goetia knew about it, he would not care too much. After all, too many debts are always a burden. Ever since Goetia carried out the Human Burning, many people have hated him. Even the most top-notch Heroic Spirit like Gilgamesh is not among the top ten of his enemies. So what is there for Goetia to be afraid of? Since he has decided to carry out the Human Burning, Goetia has already made mental preparations.

So, Gilgamesh is nothing to worry about. Ahead of him, there are Gaia, Alaya, the Seven Knights of the Crown, and many other powerful beings who want to seek revenge on him. Okay, just wait, there are still many people ahead of Gilgamesh.

It took Gilgamesh a long while to sort out his thoughts. Although he hated the Magic King Goetia to the core, when facing the new life born from Enkidu's body, Gilgamesh still had some love for the new life. After all, he was using his friend's body anyway.

".Would you like to come with us then? To see that Jin Gu?"

In response to Li Xuan's invitation, Gilgamesh nodded heavily.

Originally, Gilgamesh hadn't intended to search for Kingu, intending to return to Uruk to handle the remaining matters. But now, after hearing about Kingu's relationship with Enkidu, how could he possibly rest assured? Now that there were no enemies, it didn't matter whether he dealt with the Uruk issue or not. Gilgamesh was so double-minded when it came to matters related to Enkidu that he had to put Uruk aside.

Chapter 348: Jin Gu’s Decision

At this time, Jin Gu was in a state of confusion. What was going on? In just a few hours, so many things happened. Jin Gu, who was only less than a year old, could not handle so many things.

At first he was going to deal with the people of Chaldea, but halfway through, all the monsters of the Absolute Monster Front were destroyed by Ishtar, so he had to return to the base camp to discuss with Gorgon. While discussing, he suddenly heard from Gorgon that Elle had betrayed the alliance, followed by the betrayal of the feathered serpent Quetzalcoatl.

The angry Gorgon ignored his dissuasion and rushed out, never to return, and was soon defeated. When Jingu was happy about the awakening of the Mother Goddess, he found that the Mother Goddess's breath became weaker.

With all these ups and downs, Jingu felt that if his heart was not made of the Holy Grail, he would not be able to withstand the drastic changes in the situation.

But Jingu had no idea what was happening. Without the magical beasts that crisscrossed Uruk as his eyes and ears, and without Enkidu's ability to gather intelligence from nature and the earth, Jingu knew virtually nothing about the outside world. He was unsure what to do, and without anyone to discuss things with, he was in a state of quandary.

However, he didn't need to continue thinking about these questions, because Li Xuan had already brought a large group of people to the base camp formed by him and Gorgon.

"Mother Goddess!!???"

Although his perception ability was almost non-existent, at such a close distance, Jingu was still able to sense the arrival of Tiamat.

For him, who had just been born, Tiamat, the Mother Goddess of Creation, was his faith, so Jingu immediately rushed out. Then he saw a large group of people outside.

The combination on the opposite side made Jingu's eyes go dark. It was simply that our ministers were about to fight to the death, but why did Your Majesty surrender first? Why did the Mother Goddess Tiamat stay with such a group of people?

Gilgamesh and Ishtar of Uruk were enemies; Quetzalcoatl and Ereshkigal, two men who had betrayed the Three Goddesses' alliance, were enemies; the Masters and Heroic Spirits of Chaldea were also enemies. With the exception of Li Xuan, whom he didn't know, every one of the others he could be sure of was an enemy. "Mother Goddess, why are you hanging out with them?" he thought, and he asked directly.

"Mother Goddess, why are you with them? They are all enemies. Are they plotting something to deceive you?"

"Why should you be with them? There is no reason. You are my child, and they are my children too."

Tiamat couldn't understand why Jingu was so excited. In her opinion, Jingu was no different from Ishtar and Elei. They were all her children.

"But, they were the ones who betrayed you in the past. Such traitors must be punished."

Jingu was deeply moved. This had been his belief and approach since birth, and he had always worked hard for it. Now Tiamat wanted to forgive them. What had all his efforts and struggles been for? Jingu found it difficult to accept. If Tiamat wasn't his mother goddess, there was nothing he could do. If she were just a loyal king, Jingu would have turned evil and rebelled. Even so, Jingu still felt deeply aggrieved.

"But Tiamat never said she would punish the people of Mesopotamia. This is all wishful thinking, isn't it? There's nothing wrong with wanting to awaken Tiamat, but whether to declare war on the Mesopotamian world or punish the gods of Uruk—these decisions should be made by Tiamat, right?"

The saying "longing is the furthest thing from understanding" is true. Kingu was simply doing what he thought was right, regardless of Tiamat's wishes. Given a choice, Tiamat would never have fought her own children. But Kingu, a Tiamat admirer, stubbornly made this decision for her, just like a fanboy.

"Kingu, your actions are simply trying to impose your own will and ideas on Tiamat, aren't they?"

Jingu wanted to refute Li Xuan's statement, but he could not find a reason to refute it, because Tiamat's choice was very obvious. She did not want to fight with her own children, so she ran to the Mesopotamian world. The people and gods had betrayed her, but she was still willing to forgive them and get along with them.

This meant that Jingu had misunderstood the goddess Tiamat's intentions and had done something wrong. Although Jingu had understood this, he had always been committed to fighting against everyone in Uruk and Mesopotamia since he was born, so for a while, Jingu found it difficult to accept.

After being silent for several minutes, Jingu finally sorted out his thoughts. There was no other way. Since the Mother Goddess Tiamat had made her decision, he could only obey. However, Jingu had made up his mind that he would silently monitor the people and gods of the Mesopotamian world. After all, they had betrayed him once, so they might betray the Mother Goddess Tiamat a second time. The Mother Goddess was merciful and forgave them, but he had to help the Mother Goddess and monitor these guys.

"So what did you come to see me for?"

Although Jingu is young, he is not a fool. Such a large group of people coming here definitely are not here to see him reunite with the Mother Goddess, but they definitely have other things to discuss with him.

"Um, well, I wonder if you have the Holy Grail of this singularity."

Ritsuka Fujimaru said a little embarrassedly. After all, this Holy Grail is Kingo's heart, and they are not enemies now, so Ritsuka Fujimaru was still a little embarrassed.

"I see. Do you want the Holy Grail? Sure."

Jingu's expression was very calm. It was true that the Holy Grail was now his heart and source of power, but in reality, he was essentially the Chain of Heaven and did not need the Holy Grail to survive. His strength would just be greatly weakened. Originally, the Holy Grail was prepared for the Mother Goddess Tiamat, but now that the Mother Goddess had awakened, the Holy Grail was of no use to Jingu, and it didn't matter even if he gave it to someone in Chaldea.

As he spoke, Jin Gu thrust a hand into his chest and retrieved the Holy Grail. As the golden Holy Grail left his heart, Jin Gu's face paled and his aura weakened significantly. However, this was normal, so Jin Gu didn't take it seriously and tossed the Holy Grail to Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Chapter 349: Tiamat's Thoughts

"Are you OK."

After obtaining the Holy Grail, Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but feel worried when he saw Kingu's pale face.

"It's okay. This Holy Grail was never mine in the first place. It's fine without it."

Jin Gu's expression was very calm. Such a change was within his expectations.

"In that case, we can return to Chaldea."

Seeing that Kingo was not in any serious trouble, Fujimaru Ritsuka stopped being shy and planned to go back. Although this trip to the singularity was very relaxing, she still had to walk a lot and was a little tired, so she planned to go back and have a good rest.

"That's right. Everyone who needs to return to Chaldea should return to Chaldea, those who need to return to the Throne of Heroes should return to the Throne of Heroes, and those who need to return to the Inner Sea of the Stars should return to the Inner Sea of the Stars. This singularity has ended. Although I, Big Sister, didn't do anything, I just came out to play a supporting role."

At this point, Quetzalcoatl still felt a bit resentful. She hadn't manifested in this world just to be a soy sauce character. Li Xuan's thigh was too thick, leaving her no room to play.

"???"

Tiamat was a little confused. What was going on? She was planning to have a good time with the children, but why did they suddenly have to leave?

Tiamat lived in the early days of the Age of Gods, and was then banished to the imaginary world. Therefore, concepts like Ragnarok and the end of the Age of Gods were simply incomprehensible to Tiamat.

"Mother Goddess, the truth is, this Mesopotamian world isn't the real world, but a singularity formed by the Goetians' incineration... We've all come here to resolve this singularity. Now that it's resolved, we must return to our proper places. You can return to the Inner Sea with me, Ishtar, and the others. The rest of the Mesopotamian mythology is there."

Elle noticed Tiamat's confusion, so she gave her a detailed explanation of the problem with the Absolute Warcraft Front singularity.

"But what about the children?"

Tiamat felt that she had finally been able to live in harmony with the children, but now she was told to abandon them, which made Tiamat a little unacceptable.

"Their words are merely echoes of the past. In the correct history, they will continue to exist. It's just that they exist in the past. There's no problem with that."

That being said, according to the theory of "I think, therefore I am," some people in Uruk with different experiences can't be considered the same people in human history. However, if Uruk in the past underwent such a drastic change, future human history would be a mess. No new parallel worlds would emerge, but rather they would be directly destroyed by the two restraining forces.

Logically, Elle's argument was sound, after all, even Gilgamesh, the king of Uruk, had acquiesced, suggesting it was the correct approach. However, Tiamat wasn't one for reasoning. The more powerful a dragon, the more naive and stubborn it was. She didn't care about your opinion, only her own. Elle's argument didn't convince her.

"But I want them, I want this world to continue to exist, is that really not possible?"

Tiamat's words were innocent, but the problem was serious.
