Chapter 32, Prelude to World Destruction: Voting.
It has been some time since Ishtar incurred an exorbitant IOU and was ultimately forced to repay it with his body.
Li Lin and Ereshkigal returned to the ground and began to live their own lives.
By the way, it's worth mentioning here.
Sumer is still in the early stages of its mythology.
The civilization level of the creatures on the ground was not high, and there was only one city, Eridu, in the entire Mesopotamian plain.
It can be said that the current Age of Gods is in a golden age that is closest to the gods.
But that's why.
Excessive glory inevitably leads to decline.
At this moment, in the Great Hall of the Gods high in the heavens, the seven gods who control the power of destiny have each taken their places.
At the very top of the throne, a tall figure dressed in white robes, whose face was obscured by clouds and mist, sat quietly.
He was holding a stone slab in his hand.
The inscriptions on the stone slab, representing destiny, were gleaming with a dazzling light.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have gathered you all here today because I have an important decision to announce."
The god-king Enlil stopped what he was doing, then looked up and said.
"There are more and more living beings on the earth now, especially the race called [humans]."
"They not only have a similar appearance to us and an almost equal lifespan, but they also reproduce at a rate far exceeding that of most creatures in the world."
If such races are allowed to continue developing, they may have a tremendous impact on the cycle of birth and death in the world.
"Therefore, I have decided to give the world a great cleansing! To nip in the bud any perfect creatures that can multiply indefinitely."
After saying this, Enlil glanced around at the gods below before adding to the list.
"Then tell me your opinions, after all, the power of destiny is not something I can decide alone."
"I object!"
Just as Enlil finished speaking, the first goddess to raise her hand in refusal stood up.
Ishtar, her face serious, stood up and spoke loudly.
"I think the Great Purge was too much."
"You should know that humans were born in the image of us gods, so it is only right and reasonable to give them a way to live."
"Hehe, Inanna, when did you become so kind? This is so unlike you."
"Or is it because of something that changed you?"
Enki, sitting at the head of the table, turned his head, smiled, and said this.
"You idiot, mind your own business!"
Ishtar's expression turned slightly awkward after Enki's sudden remark, but she quickly retorted with a haughty retort.
"Alright, since everyone has different opinions, let's vote. The minority shall obey the majority, and the final vote will determine our future fate."
Seeing that things weren't going to end anytime soon, Enlil simply waved his hand and proposed a relatively simple method.
Seeing this, the gods present lost all interest and began casting their votes one by one.
The final result came out very quickly.
The god-king Enlil, the moon god Nanna, and the sun god Utu voted in favor.
Enki, the water god; Ninhursag, the mother goddess of life; and Ishtar, the goddess of Venus, voted against it.
As for the final Godfather Anu, he chose to abstain under the watchful eyes of everyone.
"Three to three, one player forfeit?"
Enlil glanced thoughtfully at the Destiny Tablet in his hand, then nodded and said.
"Although the vote was a tie, the purge will not stop unless the number of those opposed firmly holds the upper hand."
"I use the Slate of Destiny as a guide, for in the near future, the earth will be greeted by an unprecedented flood."
"All relics of the old era will be lost in this great flood. I swear in the name of the God-King Enlil!"
After saying that, Enlil didn't look at the crowd again, but took the Fate Stone and left.
"Wait a moment...."
Ishtar reached out to stop her, but Enki grabbed her hand and shook his head at her.
In fact, as one of the Seven Fates, they had already anticipated the content of this meeting.
The only difference is that it will happen sooner or later.
Therefore, instead of hoping that Enlil will reverse his decision, we should think more about what can be done to help more people survive the great flood to come.
"Forget it, let's go. Fate has brought us to this point, and neither of us can stop it."
Enki patted Ishtar on the shoulder, then left without looking back.
.................Divider Line................
Let's turn our attention back to Li Lin.
Since arriving in Sumer and forging a deep bond with the goddesses Ereshkigal and Ishtar, Li Lin's physical existence has been firmly anchored on the spirit particle record tape.
However, such fixation is far from enough.
You must know he's the Demon King.
It is a special existence that embodies the power of the seven original sins of all things!
The Seven Deadly Sins, from another perspective, are the instincts of all primates.
Instinct, if we were to explain it in another word, would be 【subconscious】!
In other words, Li Lin, this demon king, is not actually moving towards human evil.
Instead, it is the inhibitory force of new life that attempts to one day kick that bitch Alaya off the altar and then take her place.
Therefore, in conclusion, Li Lin needs to establish a very deep anchor point.
He not only needs to absorb the power of the Seven Deadly Sins to strengthen himself, but also needs to leave his firm footprints in the ancient mythological era.
One method of this is to seduce a beautiful girl and get her pregnant.
Of course, Li Lin wasn't that bad, turning into a self-propelled cannon and firing indiscriminately everywhere.
Compared to that kind of heartless, fragile presence, it's a far cry from the kind of presence that comes with being pulled away.
He prefers to use Love Saving Master.
That's right, it's about "saving" love.
[PS: Save anything, lol. (?ω?)]
Keke, get back to business.
Since the mythological story had reached a crucial point, Li Lin naturally learned about the Great Flood.
However, he did not rush to do anything or openly defy the decision of Heaven.
Because he knew that if God agreed, then there must also be God who opposed. It was just that it was still too early to do anything yet.
"It seems that the simulation is also nearing its final stage."
Li Lin looked at the sunset gradually turning red on the horizon and murmured to himself.
Ps..............
In the original myth, the actual vote result was 4 to 3, with four in favor and three against.
However, in order to show that there was still a glimmer of hope, I had Annu abstain from voting.
As for the simulation results, it only means that the story of the Age of Gods has temporarily ended; there's still plenty of time for Ereshkigal to get close to him.

The adorable author, with her perky butt, is asking for votes! Mwah!
Chapter 33, Wife’s knee pillow, Elekawai.
....................
....................
A hazy, gray fog obscured the sky.
The glistening snowflakes fell from the sky, as if draping the entire earth in a white veil.
This was a heavy snowfall, an extremely rare one, that covered almost the entire Mesopotamian plain.
It's important to understand that this plain connects to the Persian Gulf, and is crisscrossed by the Euphrates and Tigris rivers, two rivers that flow into each other. Logically, even if there were snow, it shouldn't have covered the entire plain.
So this snow is very strange.
Like the calm before a storm, everything came to a standstill.
At this moment, in a forest in the south, near the Persian Gulf, Li Lin sat in a small house, gazing at the scenery outside the window.
To be honest, he didn't know how he felt about the impending world-ending destruction.
Logically speaking, as a human in his previous life, he should have been outraged by such arbitrary decisions about the future of a race.
But when the moment actually arrived, he only had one feeling: peace.
Because he knew this was just the beginning.
If humanity truly wants to achieve independence, there will be even more suffering to come, and this is just the first time.
"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly staring out the window?"
Ereshkigal walked up to Li Lin, looking at him with some confusion as he stared blankly into space.
"No, it's nothing."
Li Lin shook his head and did not answer the question.
He turned around and looked at the girl standing next to him.
The other person still had her golden hair tied in pigtails, but the divine outfit she was originally wearing had been changed into a JK outfit that was mostly red, with a pleated skirt and sheer black stockings.
That's right, it's JK!
blonde, tsundere high school girls are the best!
Li Lin's eyes lit up when he saw Ereshkigal's attire.
Especially her super short pleated skirt!
Paired with sheer black stockings of excellent quality, the swaying skirt hem rises and falls around the full thighs and groin, subtly revealing the allure of the absolute territory!
"Ugh...! Pervert!"
Staring directly at Li Lin, Ai Lei blushed and instinctively reached out to pinch the hem of her skirt, pulling it down slightly in an attempt to block Li Lin's view.
But who exactly is Li Lin?
He might have been more reserved in the very beginning.
Now that we're an old married couple, why bother with that little bit of reserve?
Li Lin ignored Ai Lei's scolding.
He stepped forward and pressed the other person down into the chair he had just been sitting in.
Then he pulled her over from the side, tilting his body so that his head rested on Ellie's fleshy thighs.
"Ahhh, this is heaven!"
Li Lin couldn't help but let out a sigh.
Ai Lei's thighs were fleshy, and the originally elastic soft flesh was now slightly stiff due to tension.
But Li Lin didn't find the feel of it bad.
