"I said you don't need to look at me like this, I just..."

"You don't need to explain, I understand."

"Eh? What do you understand?" Fu Yuan looked at Ishtar who withdrew his resentful gaze in surprise.

"It must be like this, as long as you praise the goddess of the underworld, Ereshkigal, she will open the gate of the underworld readily, isn't that right!"

"...Well, yes, that's it." Fu Yuan nodded.

After getting Fu Yuan's answer, Ishtar nodded his head "as expected", "I knew it was so, otherwise who would think that I can't compare to that bad guy who is the goddess of the underworld."

Fu Yuan glanced at Ishtar, who showed a comfortable expression, and he shook his head helplessly, as long as you are happy.

Caster Yuzao, who was standing beside Fu Yuan, showed a smiling expression, and then she started whispering to Fu Yuan.

"Master, you lied just now."

"...I was lying in good faith just now, Ishtar of the province stared at me with such terrifying eyes." Fu Yuan replied in a low voice.

Since Fu Yuan and his group have never met Ishtar and Ereshkigal, then Fu Yuan can choose from their personalities.

After the possession, neither Ishtar nor Ereshkigal had their original faces, so Fu Yuan discarded their appearances and made choices based on their personalities.

The brutal, unreasonable and money-greedy Ishtar.

Ereshkigal, who longs for closeness and has an eager attitude.

...Obviously, it is easy to see, and there is no need to think about who to choose.

Therefore, Fu Yuan's previous choice was not to please Ereshkigal, but his true inner thoughts.

In terms of personality, Ereshkigal is indeed more beautiful.

And Ereshkigal knew Fu Yuan's true thoughts through the gate of the underworld, so she was happy from the bottom of her heart.

After the first gate of the underworld was opened, Fu Yuan and his party began to cross this gate and continued to move forward, with Ishtar at the rear.

Because when Ishtar broke into the underworld before, he had already cast a shadow on the gate of the underworld that took away his power and treasure.

Seeing that Fu Yuan and his party passed through the gate of the underworld without incident, Ishtar felt relieved.

"I hope the next question will not be such a wicked question...ah!" Ishtar, who had stepped through the gate of the underworld, suddenly exclaimed.

Fu Yuan and his group who were walking in front quickly turned their heads and looked at Ishtar in the back of the palace. Matthew quickly asked, "Miss Ishtar, what's wrong with you?"

"Don't you all feel it? I felt a slight pain and numbness just now, and now I still feel cold...Huh?"

Ishtar, who was caressing the skin of his arm, looked at Fu Yuan and his party in surprise, "Why did you get bigger?"

"No...it's not that we've grown bigger, it's Miss Ishtar, you've become smaller!" Fujimaru Tachika looked at Ishtar who had shrunk in a circle.

After Ishtar crossed the first gate of the underworld, her body seemed to shrink in proportion.

Ishtar looked at her shrinking palm and said in disbelief, "Wait a minute! Why am I getting smaller? Is it the fault of the gate of the underworld?"

"But why am I the only one who gets smaller, obviously everyone passed through the gate of the underworld... I understand!"

Then, Ishtar understood!

Suddenly realized, Ishtar pointed to Fu Yuan excitedly and said, "It must be because your answer was wrong, so I was punished!"

Justified and convincing.

That's right, because Fu Yuan's answer just now was wrong, so now she is being punished for Ishtar!

Fu Yuan looked at Ishtar with the expression of "I am indeed more beautiful than Ereshkigal", and said subtly, "If it is as you said, then why are you the one who was punished?"

"It should be me who gave the wrong answer, right?"

Chapter 55 Ishtar Can

"Hey, it makes sense, so why?" Ishtar's pretty face showed a little hesitation.

At this moment, Ereshkigal's joyful laughter suddenly rang out from Fu Yuan and the others.

"Hahahaha~"

Ereshkigal, who was very happy in his heart, said, "Stupid Ishtar, the answer of the stranger is correct!"

"The goddess of the underworld is indeed more beautiful than you!"

"However, the reason why you became like this is entirely because the gate of the underworld punished you for trespassing into the underworld!"

"You once broke into the underworld, as long as this mythical fact still exists, you cannot escape the curse of the underworld."

"Therefore, every time you pass through a door, you will become smaller and one-seventh of your divinity will be taken away each time. When you pass through the second door, you will become a lower-level god. At the fourth gate, you will become an undead lower than Galura Spirit!"

"Through the last gate of the underworld, you will probably become a powerless wretch!"

Listening to Ereshkigal's cheerful words, Ishtar, who became angry from embarrassment, said loudly, "You bastard, you are becoming more and more twisted and disgusting!"

"Hmph." Ereshkigal in the palace of the underworld snorted coldly, "I'm already very merciful and generous!"

"You guys smashed the sky of my underworld and broke into the underworld without authorization. This is an unforgivable sin that cannot be forgiven even if you die a hundred times!"

"But since you have accepted the test of the seven gates of the underworld, I have to follow the rules of the underworld to see if you can pass through the seven gates of the underworld." Ereshkigal said in a selfless tone.

The underworld expressly stipulates that no matter who it is, as long as it proposes the idea of ​​passing through the seven gates of the underworld, the goddess of the underworld must accept it.

Therefore, the seven gates of the underworld are not only used to judge human souls, but also a way to meet the goddess of the underworld.

"I know what you people from other lands want to do, so as long as you can pass through the seven gates of the underworld, then I will welcome you as the goddess of the underworld."

After leaving these words, Ereshkigal's voice completely disappeared.

Fu Yuan looked at Ishtar who had shrunk in a circle, and said, "If you say that every time you cross a gate of the underworld, your divinity and power will be reduced, then you should stay in Ishtar. Here? Or leave the underworld?"

"I don't, I want to move on." Ishtar gritted his teeth and said, "How can I back down at this time, if I back down, that nasty guy [Ereshkigal] will laugh at me loudly .”

Ishtar is such a person.

Although she is willful and savage, she is the kind of person who can display her perseverance the more she is in adversity.

Therefore, the dilemma of crossing the gate of the underworld has inspired Ishtar's perseverance, and she will never back down!

Never back down in front of Gilgamesh and the goddess of the underworld, Ereshkigal!

Because it's too embarrassing!

"As expected of you, Ms. Ishtar, knowing that there is such a disaster ahead, you are not afraid." Fujimaru Tachika and Mash looked at Ishtar who was facing the fatal crisis with admiration.

"Of course, it's me!" Ishtar proudly brushed his black hair, "I was mentally prepared for this level of attack before going to the underworld."

And Gilgamesh glanced at Ishtar, and he said with a sneer, "In fact, Ishtar can't leave even if he wants to."

"Because this is the underworld, without the permission of the goddess of the underworld, or without defeating her, it is impossible to leave the underworld."

"...Don't be so long-winded." Ishtar glared at the demolished Gilgamesh, "Let's move forward quickly, and we must solve this goddess of the underworld before we are corroded by the breath of the underworld and become corpses!"

"Yes."

Romani's voice came from Fujimaru Tachika's communication bracelet, and he reminded, "Although the underworld in Mesopotamia can be regarded as the present world, staying in such a place full of the atmosphere of the underworld, Everyone's physical stats and destiny will drop."

"Is it fate again?" Matthew murmured.

When using the black gun, it will also consume one's own destiny.

And the so-called destiny power is indescribable.

It can be roughly regarded as the luck of 'being used for granted for survival'.

No matter what kind of life it is, it is always using the luck of 'not encountering danger'.

Therefore, people with low luck will easily encounter unfortunate accidents.

For example...was hit by a car driving illegally while walking on the road.

In other words, people with low luck will encounter bad luck.

Everyone knows that the underworld is a place that cannot stay for long, so Fu Yuan and the others rushed to the second gate of the underworld.

The second gate of the underworld is a long time away from the first gate of the underworld, only about [-] meters away, and because no enemy came out to resist, Fu Yuan and the others reached the second gate of the underworld smoothly.

"I hope it won't be an inexplicable question like the first gate of the underworld." Ishtar muttered.

It was still Mash who went forward to touch the gate of the underworld, and then the voice rang again.

But this time, Ereshkigal, who had already exposed her existence, no longer hid her voice.

So what sounded here was no longer the hollow and dead voice, but Ereshkigal's own voice.

"Answer, answer! Master from a foreign land."

"Just let me answer the question this time." Fujimaru Tachika blinked, and then she held her breath and listened intently to the second question of the gate of the underworld.

"The distribution of property is fluid, but there is only one person who is worthy to own it. All the wealth on earth should be entrusted to one person for safekeeping, that is, who is the goddess worth entrusting wealth to? Is it Ereshkigal or Ishtar? , who do you choose?"

"Very good, the second question is also free! Lixiang, you don't need to think too much, just choose me." Ishtar patted Fujimaru Lixiang's shoulder.

"Ah..." Fujimaru Tatsuka looked away a little guilty, she didn't think so.

Because Fujimaru Tachika followed Fu Yuan and his team to hire Ishtar, she had clearly seen Ishtar's persistence and desire for gems...

So if you entrust the wealth to Ishtar, will those wealth really not be taken away by her?

"Just choose the answer in your heart, you must have concerns." Fu Yuan said with a smile to Fujimaru Tachika.

"That's right, that's right, just tell your inner choice." Ishtar said confidently.

It is estimated that Ishtar is thinking that Fujimaru Tachika will choose her...

"Since Ms. Ishtar has said so, let me tell the truth." Fujimaru Tachika hurriedly left Ishtar's side to prevent the goddess from violently beating her up.

Fujimaru Tachika, who came to Fu Yuan's side, said to the second gate of the underworld, "Although I don't know if the goddess of the underworld has the ability to keep money, but if you have to choose between these two goddesses..."

"I choose the goddess of the underworld."

"Eh?!" Now Ishtar's expression turned pale with shock, she said in shock, "Why?!"

"Why?"

Gilgamesh squinted at Ishtar, "Who doesn't know that you are very greedy for money, so you, a goddess who regards money as your life, will really keep the money entrusted by others? Instead of taking their money?"

"How could I do such a thing! Am I such a bad goddess?" Ishtar stomped angrily.

"You are such a wretch! Think what you did to God Enki!" Ereshkigal's cheerful voice came over.
