Chapter 68: The Last Words of the Mother Goddess of Creation
🕑 Added 2025-03-26 03:01:02 +0000 UTC~Projection of All Worlds~
“The Underworld has its own rules, even the Mistress of the Underworld cannot be an exception!”
“Never thought that giving power to the living would have such severe consequences...!”
“So this means from the very beginning, she was already risking more than half her life just to maintain her body?!”
“Before, I thought this Ereshkigal was useless, but now I understand... Sigh!”
“Suddenly, I feel like this Mistress of the Underworld is quite adorable...!”
“Even though she possesses the power of death, she doesn’t make people afraid at all…!”
“You didn’t realize that you yourself are the most beautiful flower in the Underworld!”
The crowd watching the video couldn’t help but feel their noses sting with emotion. They felt deep sympathy for this cute goddess; simply seeing the Underworld bloom with flowers made them feel incredibly satisfied as they departed.
~Type-Moon World in the ******* Worldline~
~In the 7th singularity, Absolute Demonic Front: Babylonia~
“Wa... Oh!!... Ereshkigal!!”
Ushiwakamaru’s voice was filled with emotion as she watched the screen. The sight of Ereshkigal’s sacrifice had deeply moved her.
After all, she was summoned specifically to deal with the alliance of three goddesses.
Now, it feels strange, but no matter what, she can't bring herself to fight against the goddess of the Underworld anymore. Perhaps there’s no need to fight after all!
“She’s a foolish goddess... But she did well!”
Gilgamesh knew this goddess had always resented Uruk.
In order to let the Underworld erode Uruk, she even dug a ten-year pit underground, trying to transfer the entire Underworld directly beneath Uruk!
But now, seeing her sacrifice, even Gilgamesh couldn’t help but acknowledge her worth.
~Chaldea~
“Ereshkigal...!”
Fujimaru Ritsuka stared blankly at the figure disappearing amidst the sea of flowers. So, she was just happy talking to people like that?!
Is it really enough to be satisfied with just a single flower?
Where is the terrifying goddess of the Underworld? She’s just a lonely girl.
When I get to this Singularity, we’ll definitely become friends! Ereshkigal...
Mash, standing beside Fujimaru, felt a pang of sympathy.
~Type-Moon World in the Fifth Holy Grail War Worldline~
“Huh...! Am I dead?!”
Tohsaka Rin looked at the person who resembled her and vanished, feeling a strange sensation.
“Do you understand how I feel now?!”
Emiya Shirou was deeply moved. Looking at the first video where this person appeared, he also felt a strange sensation.
But having such a Mistress of the Underworld is truly wonderful!
【 Just as Ereshkigal disappeared, Fujimaru Ritsuka entered Nega-Genesis, running forward along the path of petals without stopping!
However, Tiamat noticed his presence, and several Laḫmu emerged from her body again, striking the ground and shattering it into pieces!
The Laḫmu kept laughing, seemingly mocking Fujimaru Ritsuka for being overconfident!
At this moment, King Hassan, enveloped in blue flames, appeared within Nega-Genesis! He shielded Fujimaru Ritsuka, allowing the sharp claws of the Laḫmu to pierce his body!
“If they are the dead, then their natural opponent is death itself!” 】
......
~Projection of All Worlds~
“He’s such a handsome old man!!”
“I thought once someone entered, they’d disappear?! How did he manage to do this?!”
While everyone was puzzled, the next scene shocked them even more!
【 Suddenly, King Hassan's eyes narrowed, and blue flames erupted from his mouth. Then, he bit into the Laḫmu, tore its head open, and stomped it to pieces with one kick.
“The mission of subjugation is handed over to me. As a living person, keep moving forward!” King Hassan said without turning back to Fujimaru Ritsuka.
With a determined expression, Fujimaru Ritsuka resumed running forward, while King Hassan once again bit down and killed another Laḫmu attempting to attack him! 】
......
~Projection of All Worlds~
“How were those Laḫmu? Did they taste good?!”
“One bite, one Laḫmu!!”
“Is this guy really an assassin?! It’s hard to believe my own eyes!”
“Class rank as Assassin, pronounced as Berzerker!!”
【 On the other side, Mash and Merlin worked hard to maintain the barrier, buying time.
At this moment, black mud began to gather behind them, forming another Laḫmu!
By the time Merlin turned around, the Laḫmu had already been pierced by one of Gilgamesh’s Noble Phantasms and collapsed to the ground!
Then, golden ripples appeared behind Gilgamesh, continuously firing Noble Phantasms without giving the enemy any chance to catch a breath!
Meanwhile, inside Nega-Genesis, Fujimaru Ritsuka was blocked by constantly shifting boulders, causing him to shout in frustration:
“Damn it!! We’ve come so far!”
Suddenly, Fufu appeared behind him and teleported Fujimaru Ritsuka to the air above Tiamat. Petals surrounded him as he descended!
Fujimaru Ritsuka raised the Noble Phantasm in his hand, and with the petals guiding him, he struck Tiamat’s head, emitting a burst of golden light before everything went dark!
Outside the barrier, Gilgamesh and Merlin silently observed.
In the midst of attacking Tiamat, Fujimaru Ritsuka arrived in an empty space and encountered a humanoid form of Tiamat, standing there dazed.
“Crack!”
Right then, cracks appeared outside Nega-Genesis, gradually shrinking until they disappeared completely. Tiamat let out a loud scream toward the sky.
“Aaaa——”
“Gilgamesh!” Fujimaru Ritsuka’s figure reappeared in the air, falling downward while shouting toward Gilgamesh!
“Looks like you've settled the score, Fujimaru Ritsuka.” Gilgamesh crossed his arms and smiled, his magical energy suddenly bursting forth.
“Then, I shall take this one blow and call it the 'Ritual of Separation'!!”
A red magical vortex appeared under his feet, accompanied by a golden ripple. A strangely shaped cylindrical sword emerged!
“I will tell you of the beginning.”
“Heaven and Earth split, nothingness praised creation,”
“And my Sword of Rupture cleaved the world!”
Gilgamesh grabbed the manifested Enuma Elish sword, red magical energy swirling at the tip of the blade, accelerating rapidly. Lightning followed, wrapping around the sword!
“Mortar of the stars, heaven's hell is the eve of creation's celebration!”
Gilgamesh raised the Enuma Elish in his hand, a vast starry sky appearing above it. Red-black pressure swept through, accompanied by thunderous roars, gathering at the tip of the blade!
“Now you shall die and be silent...”
“The Star of Creation that Split Heaven and Earth——!!”
(Enuma Elish)
“Buzz——”
Accompanied by a thunderous roar, a torrent of magical energy engulfed Tiamat’s massive body, gradually disintegrating her.
Finally, Tiamat slowly disappeared entirely!
The ground shattered, returning to the pure white space from before.
“You are...” Fujimaru Ritsuka, holding a dagger, gazed at the human-like form of Tiamat.
“I nurtured countless lives! Once loved by all beings, but my children have used me as a ladder, and they always head to places so far away—desu.”
As Tiamat spoke, her body began to dissolve into light, gradually vanishing!
“I wanted to keep loving them forever—desu.”
“I wanted them to stay by my side forever—desu.”
“Is my love... mistaken? —desu.””
Facing Tiamat’s question, Fujimaru Ritsuka had no definitive answer and could only respond seriously:
“I don't know.”
“But... your children all love you!”
“So, you need to get going.” Fujimaru Ritsuka released the Noble Phantasm in his hand and watched Tiamat slowly disappear.
“Please don't leave me behind... Please never... love me again.” Tiamat, tears streaming down her face, softly spoke to Fujimaru Ritsuka.
“Farewell!” Fujimaru Ritsuka, unsure of his feelings, turned and said.
“Thank you!” With that, he left this space. 】
This is the final parting between humans and gods!...
