Why is this goddess, who looks exactly like her, wearing such shamelessly revealing clothes?
Rin felt a chill run down her spine.
The video from [Alaya] was being broadcasted globally.
And Ishtar looked exactly like her.
That basically meant everyone was staring at her.
Just look at the comments—those perverts in the live chat were all shouting things like, "I could lick those legs for a whole year!"
There was even a top-tier degenerate who actually said—
"You guys aren't perverted enough. I'd lick her until only the bones are left! And she got a VIP pass in my basement!"
Are you a gentleman with a fetish, or a tiger with barbs on your tongue!?
These people were terrifying!
"Seriously, why did Ishtar take on my appearance?"
The more Rin watched, the more goosebumps erupted all over her body.
She had this awful sense of being publicly executed in front of the entire world. That damned lascivious goddess—how was she supposed to go to school after this!?
On screen, the goddess spoke in a tone dripping with arrogance, "Gilgamesh, get out here and face this goddess!"
But when her voice fell, there was no response.
Siduri, as a priestess, nervously stepped forward. "Lady Goddess, the king has sent Nameless to receive you."
"Heh. A mere mortal king dares to disrespect the most noble and beautiful goddess?!"
Ishtar snorted coldly, brimming with murderous intent.
To this goddess, adored by all the gods, everything in the mortal world was just a toy.
And she could play with it however she wanted!
But the most entertaining toy at the moment had been hiding from her, which made her extremely irritable.
Her gaze fell on the handsome man beside her, a bit surprised. "You… there's something peculiar about your aura."
"So you're that useless goddess Gilgamesh was talking about?"
Nameless asked bluntly.
Siduri, standing behind him, immediately averted her eyes, unable to watch.
This guy really was just like the king—completely fearless, not showing an ounce of respect for a deity.
No wonder the king valued him so much.
Though they bickered constantly and called each other "mongrel," deep down, the king probably already regarded him as a true friend.
"A mere mortal dares call me useless!? If weird rumors start spreading, it'll be a hassle—I'll just kill you and everyone else!"
Ishtar's body trembled with rage, exuding deadly pressure as she instantly went full-power.
Voooom—
The glorious divine weapon that had previously vanished reappeared once more.
It was Ma'anna, the Heavenly Boat that sailed across Mesopotamia—a divine vessel that connected Earth and Venus.
Thus, she was also known as the Goddess of Venus.
High above, a massive celestial body slowly rose. It cast an enormous shadow across the sky, blotting out the sun.
Uruk was completely swallowed in the darkness.
This was the manifestation of Venus' conceptual essence, launching a cataclysmic thunderous strike!
Every ordinary person dropped to their knees in terror, hoping to quell the wrath of the goddess.
Even the onlookers watching the video could feel the terrifying pressure—
AlphaSigma-[Damn, she just projected the entire planet Venus—this is what it means to be a god!?]
HistorianWithWifi-[Scary as hell… thankfully the Age of Gods faded after Uruk, or gods like this would've destroyed the world by now!]
AspiringWizard-[Nameless is even more arrogant than the King of Heroes… is he really not scared of the goddess wiping Uruk off the map!?]
CatEarsPrincess-[You got this, Big Bro Defender of Humanity! Bring down that eternal and arrogant goddess!]
…
"This goddess is terrifying!"
Even as she munched on watermelon, Kirina couldn't help but set it aside.
A planetary projection—what did that even mean?
If it actually fell, it would destroy the entire world!
"Fou… fou (You're scarier)?"
Fou, nestled between Sanjiro's thighs, looked up at her with a strange expression.
This person was weird.
She had the same level of aura as it, yet she acted so—
…goofy?
"She's definitely strong,"
Sanjiro casually stroked Fou with one hand, his eyes filled with deep reminiscence.
Gods were still gods, after all.
No matter how powerful a mortal became, slaying a god was still like reaching for the heavens.
The only fortunate thing here was that this wasn't a fully manifested deity.
It was simply a goddess using the future timeline's Rin Tohsaka as a vessel summoned into the past.
Yes—that overwhelmingly powerful Ishtar in the video was using Rin's body!
In a way, the Tohsaka family's infamous "curse of incompetence" might even be stronger than the gods.
It could be considered a causality-defying weapon of fate.
On par with that old geezer who never understood anything, yet accidentally nudged the entire world into chaos with a single comment.
His one prophetic blunder almost caused a world war with Heroic Spirit Gilgamesh!
"I wonder how Nameless is going to defend himself."
Kirina watched with concern.
That really was a god!
As she worriedly watched—
On screen, the tyrannical goddess was arrogantly displaying divine authority without restraint.
BOOM!
The divine bow was drawn, and a dazzling beam of light surged toward the Nameless One.
He raised his hand, and a familiar purple glow appeared in front of him, forming layered shields of protection.
[Rho Aias]
However—
The divine attack was overwhelmingly powerful, tearing through layer after layer of defense like paper.
In the blink of an eye, six of the seven shields were obliterated with ease!
Just as he was about to project another Noble Phantasm to block the next attack, a familiar energy wave suddenly intercepted the blow in his place.
It was a set of golden, shimmering vortexes.
Each vortex radiated powerful Noble Phantasm energy, shimmering with golden ripples.
The boisterous laugh of the King of Heroes echoed, "Nameless, you're seriously weak! You can't even block the attack of that useless goddess, hahahaha!"
"Shut up! I've only projected one Noble Phantasm! I don't need your shiny golden ass helping me!"
Nameless shot back without missing a beat.
Off in the distance behind them, Siduri couldn't bear to watch anymore.
These two were unbelievable—clearly fighting a god together, and yet still going out of their way to mock and insult each other.
Couldn't they show the goddess even a little bit of respect?
"You humans… have successfully enraged me!"
Ishtar stared at the two of them, fuming.
She was supposed to be a lofty, untouchable goddess—yet these two were treating her with absolute disdain.
Still… this new guy who suddenly appeared seemed even more mysterious than Gilgamesh.
There was an aura about him even she couldn't fully perceive, as if it contained countless worlds and infinite timelines.
A being beyond the gods.
Realizing this, Ishtar's fury began to wane.
As the most beloved of the gods, she could have anything she desired. Even the King of Uruk was, in her eyes, no more than a collectible human figurine.
Now, it seemed she had found an even rarer treasure.
A mortal who dared defy the gods, with an origin shrouded in mystery—this made her even more eager to collect him.
Interesting…
Truly interesting!
If he hated gods so much—then she would play by human rules of love.
As a goddess, she could do whatever she wanted!
In the eyes of mortals, falling in love, confessing, being together, even getting married and having kids—these were all beautiful things.
But to Ishtar, that was all wrong.
Even marriage came with hierarchy—exploitation and the exploited.
Love is war.
So, she would make him confess to her—make him lower his proud head to her completely!
Ishtar smiled wickedly.
"Lowly mortal, put down your sword and confess your love to this goddess!"
