Chapter 438 Ereshkigal’s little thoughts
The reason why Fujimaru Ritsuka proposed to stay temporarily was because of the plan they proposed during the day.
According to the original plan, Gudav and others will come to the underworld with Gilgamesh the next day to attack Ereshkigal.
But if nothing else goes wrong, after Gudav successfully recruited Ishtar and took her back to Uruk, he should have had contact with Ereshgaqil and learned that she was not a Evil goddess.
In fact, the reason why Ereshkigal joined the [Three Goddess Alliance] was not because Gilgamesh said he betrayed the people of Sumer.
On the contrary, the other party sincerely loves mankind, but chooses to protect mankind in her own way, that is, the goddess of the underworld.
Specifically, Ereshgakir's concept is relatively pessimistic, believing that the destruction of mankind is irreversible, so he plans to preserve the souls of the remaining humans in this era as much as possible, so that they can at least continue to live in the underworld. .
That's why she worked hard to make the gun threshold, hoping to accommodate more human souls so that they would have a place to stay as soon as they came to the underworld.
This method is somewhat similar to the behavior of the Lion King at the Sixth Singularity.
Therefore, although Gilgamesh and others' plan is to defeat Ereshkigal, as long as Gudav has not been brain-controlled by Hinako-senpai, Ereshkigal will eventually join them if nothing unexpected happens. .
Let’s get back to the point.
This time she had planned to go to the underworld with Gudav and the others, mainly because she was afraid that they would really attack Ereshkigal without saying a word.
Although the possibility should be very small, it is still just a precaution.
Therefore, considering their plan, Fujimaru Ritsuka's plan was that Gudav and the others were going to come to the underworld the next day anyway, so she might as well just stay here and wait for their arrival, which would save her the hassle of running back and forth.
If it was just for one day, it wouldn't be a big deal to her.
On the other side, Ereshkigal was holding Manzhushahua and carefully planted her in the center of the temple - although it was said to be a temple, it was actually just a fairly plain flat area.
The moment Manjusawa was placed on the ground, its rhizome took root into the ground and its petals became more vivid. Just as Fujimaru Ritsuka said, it is very suitable for the environment of the underworld.
"——!"
Ereshkigal squatted on the ground, staring intently at the flowers in front of him. His eyes were sparkling, and the corners of his mouth could not help but rise. His joy was beyond words.
"My underworld finally has flowers...!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka stood nearby and watched this scene with a smile.
At this time, Ereshkigal seemed to remember something, looked over quickly, and asked in a panic: "Speaking of which, does it need watering? Will it get sick? What about nutrition? manage……"
"I can't answer so many questions at once."
Fujimaru Ritsuka signaled the other party to relax first, and then said with a smile:
"It does make it grow faster if you water it. It's totally fine if you don't do anything."
As she spoke, she took out a small glass of water and poured it gently on Manzhushahua's head.
This is not ordinary water, but water from the river in the Paramita space, the underworld that she controls, which she calls yellow spring water.
Lianhua didn't know what specific effects the water had, so she brought some to little Leonardo da Vinci for experimentation.
What can be known now is that Huangquan water has a very strong concept of [death], which is tantamount to poisonous to any living beings, but is harmless to dead beings such as the undead.
In addition, Huangquan water is also a very precious mysterious material.
And for Manzhu Shahua——
The yellow spring water flowed along its petals to the rhizome, and then was completely absorbed. Then, in the shocked eyes of Ereshgajile, the roots of Manzhushahua split, and the second and third plants grew at a speed visible to the naked eye. strains...
What was originally a solitary manjushuahua plant increased to five in the blink of an eye and turned into a small clump.
Ereshgacil was shocked and said:
"It's changed, it's become a sea of flowers——!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka said amusedly:
“It’s still far from enough.”
"..." At this moment, Ereshkigal remembered that there were outsiders, and his face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, but his eyes were still fixed on the small cluster of flowers in front of him.
To her, this is no different from the sea of flowers.
After looking at it for an unknown amount of time, Ereshkigal seemed to remember something and stood up reluctantly.
Bringing human souls back to the underworld was the task she entrusted to the Garula spirit, and her task was to continue making gun thresholds to welcome the arrival of souls.
Seeing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka, who had nothing to do, came over curiously and asked with a smile:
"Do you need my help?"
"No need. But..."
Ereshkigal glanced at her. Because of Manzhushahua, she was very fond of Fujimaru Ritsuka, and they were both gods of the underworld...
"Well, if you want to learn, I can't teach you."
Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded decisively and smiled:
"Then please."
So Ereshkigal began to teach Fujimaru Ritsuka how to make a gun threshold. After a while, Fujimaru Ritsuka started to make a gun threshold, which looked not unfamiliar at all.
She was a little surprised and said:
"You learn so fast. Is there something like a gun threshold in the underworld over there?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and said:
"I've come into contact with some similar beings."
To be precise, not long ago, after learning that she was in charge of the Paramita space, Ereshkigal of Tagalog specifically taught her the technique of making gun sills.
"Speaking of it,"
Following this topic, Ereshkigal couldn't help but asked curiously:
"What does your underworld look like? It should be very beautiful, right?"
"Um,"
Fujimaru Ritsuka thought for a moment and smiled:
"It's okay. But after watching it for a long time, it will feel very monotonous because there is nothing changing."
"indeed!"
Ereshkigal nodded vigorously in agreement, she resonated so well with this!
“However, there is a girl named Lianhua over there who helps me manage...”
…
…
Ereshkigal was obviously very interested in another underworld that was completely different from the underworld in Sumer. He listened to Fujimaru Ritsuka's story with great interest, and occasionally uttered an exclamation or showed a moment of envious eyes.
Especially when I heard about the automated reincarnation system in the Paramita space, I was stunned. While shouting "deviant", my tone sounded a little sour.
Ereshkigal was forcibly given the job of God of Hades by the gods, but in fact she did not like this job. She just worked hard to fulfill this responsibility based on her sense of responsibility and forced herself to be a perfect God of Hades. .
That's why Grandpa Hassan reminded her, "You can't express appreciation to people who are in pain," and you can't appreciate the pain of "a person forcing himself to do something he doesn't like to do."
However, as far as she knew, Ereshkigal of Targa now became very fond of the work of the God of the Underworld, and was committed to various decorations in the underworld, striving to create a perfect underworld paradise.
Then, just wait for when she will die.
emmmmm……
Fujimaru Ritsuka did not comment on this.
