Two Thousand Four Hundred and Sixty-Seven "Underworld"
When the sudden voice reached everyone's ears, a figure walked slowly ahead.
With crisp short hair, blue kimono, and red coat, a girl who is both familiar and unfamiliar appeared in front of Rozen and Mash.
"Who are you...!?"
Mash was startled immediately, and almost subconsciously called out the shield of the round table to block Rozen.
"Two ceremonies..."
Luo Zhen stared at the other party and called out the other party's name.
Impressively, it was the two rituals that threatened Luo Zhen and others when they attacked Uruk last time.
"As expected, you are here, very fast."
The two ceremonies looked at Luo Zhen with a faint smile on their faces.
Such two rituals did not hold any weapons in their hands. The ordinary knife that left a deep impression on everyone last time seemed to have not been pulled out by him, and even a pair of magic eyes did not appear. They only watched with black pupils. With Rozen.
"Don't be nervous, I'm not here to fight with you, I'm just here to lead the way."
The two ceremonies spread out their hands, as if expressing that they had no fighting spirit. Their attitudes were neither friendly nor indifferent. They could only be said to be full of indifference and very elusive.
However, thinking of the degree of danger the other party showed last time, Mash still couldn't let go of his vigilance.
Luo Zhen was still watching the two ceremonies, not knowing what he was thinking.
Naturally, the two ceremonies would not pursue these matters, they just lowered their hands.
"Since you have come to the underworld and passed through the seven gates, it means that you are qualified to meet Ereshkigal directly." The two rituals said: "Although I don't know what you plan to come here, but Whether you want to talk or fight, you have to see Ereshkigal first."
Saying that, the two rituals turned around.
"Come with me, the goddess is waiting for you."
The two ceremonies went forward.
Luo Zhen and Matthew looked at each other's back, frowning deeply.
"Who is that person? A follower?"
At this time, Ishtar also slowed down, wondering if he had accepted his current situation, looked at the two rituals walking forward, and made a sound in surprise.
"I didn't expect there to be servants in the underworld. Was it recruited by Ereshkigal? That guy can also win over a subordinate like this?"
Hearing this, Matthew put Ishtar on one of his shoulders and made a sound.
"According to what I said, she seems to be a diner of the underworld."
Matthew said so.
"A diner in the underworld?" Not only was Ishtar not relieved, but he was even more puzzled and surprised: "You actually came to the underworld to be a diner? Are you kidding me?"
Obviously, the existence of the two ceremonies also had a great impact on Ishtar.
That maverick girl is like that, always impressing others.
"Let's go."
Luo Zhen was still looking at the backs of the two ceremonies, and said so after a while, and followed.
"Fu!"
Fufu immediately ran with her small limbs and followed behind Luo Zhen.
"Wait for me, senior."
Matthew also took Ishtar and hurriedly followed.
A group of people caught up with the two rituals, and under the leadership of the two rituals, they went to the deepest part of the underworld.
.........
Along the way, no one spoke a word.
It was as if the appearance of the two ceremonies had suppressed everyone's sense of existence. Without her opening her mouth,
Everyone seemed to be unable to find a chance to speak, so they just kept silent.
Ishtar did comment on the situation once.
"What a wonderful little girl."
Obviously, Ishtar is also full of curiosity and emotion about the two ceremonies.
As for Matthew, he has always been vigilant about the two ceremonies.
Only Luo Zhen still had that calm appearance, but he didn't intend to speak.
And everyone didn't open their mouths to speak, and naturally they didn't say anything during the two ceremonies, so they just led the way silently and led everyone forward.
I don't know how long it took, but everyone finally finished the journey and reached the end of the underworld.
"Okay, here we are."
The two men stopped, put their hands in the pockets of their coats, and said these words in a calm tone.
"This is the palace of Ereshkigal."
After hearing the words of the two ceremonies, everyone couldn't even give a response.
Especially Luo Zhen and Matthew, looking at the scene in front of them, were completely speechless.
On Luo Zhen's wrist, the voices of everyone in Chaldea sounded in astonishment.
"Is this the palace of the goddess of the underworld?"
"is that a lie?"
"There's nothing here!"
Olga Marie, Leonardo da Vinci, and Roman made a sound in astonishment.
Yes.
What appeared in front of everyone was not a splendid palace, but a wilderness.
However...
"This is the underworld." Two ceremonies Gujing Wubo said: "Here, there are no gorgeous and beautiful things at all, and there are only underground worlds used to house dead souls, including the palace of the goddess of the underworld. Again, there is only this wilderness."
This is the underworld, a world where nothing but souls are allowed to exist.
"Does the goddess Ereshkigal live here?"
Matthew asked in disbelief.
"That's right." The two ceremonies said bluntly: "The goddess who follows you should be very clear about these things, right?"
The words of the two rituals made Matthew look at Ishtar who was sitting on his shoulder.
"...Don't be surprised, Mash, it's all true."
Ishtar was silent for a while, then sighed and spoke.
"Because the underworld is such a place, when the underworld is built, no god is willing to come here and become the god of the underworld. As a result, Ereshkigal, who was just born, became a victim. The pillar of the underworld was dedicated to this kingdom of the dead, and thus became the hostess of the underworld. As the god who manages the undead, she has stayed here for thousands of years, never spending even a moment in the world or in the sky. "
This is why Ereshkigal, the goddess of the underworld, cannot come out of the underworld.
Matthew has nothing to say.
In his eyes, there was endless sadness.
At this moment, the person Matthew associates with is herself.
because...
[UU Reading 00ks] "Being imprisoned in one place all this time, unable to see the blue sky or sunlight, must be very sad?"
This is how Matthew spent the first half of her life.
However, even Matthew has only spent more than ten years like this.
On the other hand, Ereshkigal, she has spent tens of thousands of years in such a life.
How can this make Matthew not feel sad?
But...
"The goddess has never complained about this, and has even been working hard, with a sense of mission and responsibility, and has been managing the dead here."
The two rituals looked at Luo Zhen.
"This time, she will join the
Before the two ceremonies could speak, they were immediately interrupted.
