The Goddess Ishtar unleashed her powerful attack at Mash and Anna; it created a dazzling spectacle that captivated all who witnessed it. As the intense energy crackled around them, Merlin, the wise mage, turned to Fujimaru, urging him, "It's time now to reveal the Trump card that would turn the tide of the battle." Responding to Merlin's prompt, Fujimaru replied, "Have got this." At that moment, he revealed a stunning array of precious gems, each one gleaming with a radiant light that seemed to mesmerise even goddess Ishtar herself.
Caught off guard by this unexpected display, the Goddess Ishtar stood momentarily frozen, her expression a mix of confusion and shock as she tried to process the sudden turn of events. Gathering her thoughts, she inquired, "Wait, what is all this? This is enough gems to power my magecraft for a long time." Fujimaru stepped forth with a bold proposition, informing Ishtar that King Gilgamesh himself sought to enlist her services, offering a generous share of the treasures of Uruk in return. This revelation sparked a series of contemplations within Ishtar, leading her to ultimately decide to align herself with the party. With a solemn nod, Ishtar accepted the terms proposed by Fujimaru, sealing their newfound alliance with a divine pact that bound them together as master and servant. After completing their mission, they all decided to head back to Uruk with their new ally, Ishtar.
As they reached their destination, they were warmly welcomed by King Gilgamesh, who explained to them the crucial task ahead, proudly stating, "I need the divine tool that was used to rippe Tiamat's throat; I mean the axe of Marduk. This is the best secret weapon we have against Gorgon," the professor, Romani Archaman, informed the king that Erindu was located close to the jungle ruled by the supreme goddess of the jungle. With great urgency, King Gilgamesh inquired, stating, "Ishtar, who is the goddess of the jungle, am sure you know?"
The goddess Ishtar took a moment to share intricate details with them about the revered goddess of the jungle. With great reverence, she began, "The goddess that holds dominion over the south is the Winged Snake; she is a fellow goddess of Venus and the great bird of the sun. The Mesoamerican wind, Quetzalcoatl." Ishtar's voice resonated with admiration as she revealed how Quetzalcoatl's strength surpassed even that of the formidable Gorgon. Taken aback by this revelation, King Gilgamesh swiftly orders the professor, Romani Archaman, urging him to delve deeper into the mysteries surrounding Quetzalcoatl. Instructing the professor to gather more knowledge about this astonishing goddess, Gilgamesh emphasised the significance of understanding the vast power and history that Quetzalcoatl held within the realm of divine beings.
At that pivotal moment, a deafening explosion ripped through the southern gate of the magnificent city, catching the attention of a vigilant soldier tasked with delivering vital information to the esteemed King Gilgamesh. With a grave expression etched upon his face, the soldier urgently relayed the distressing news, stating, "Your majesty, I have an urgent message that cannot wait. The south gate has been destroyed. They say it's a single enemy; a woman called Quetzalcoatl had destroyed the gate with her bare hands and entered Uruk; you've got to prepare; she's heading straight for the palace."
Quick to respond to this dire threat, King Gilgamesh swiftly devised a strategic plan of action, entrusting the mission of confronting the invincible Goddess Quetzalcoatl to the courageous party of skilled individuals. Led by the enigmatic and powerful Merlin, the mage of unparalleled prowess, the party consisted of the valiant warriors Fujimaru and Mash, as well as the radiant goddess Ishtar and Anna, each bearing their own unique strengths and abilities essential for the perilous battle ahead.
The Goddess Quetzalcoatl majestically strode towards the palace, her mere presence casting a foreboding shadow over the once-tranquil city of Uruk. The valiant soldiers braced themselves for the impending clash with this unstoppable force of nature. The air crackled with tension as the defenders of Uruk prepared to make a defiant stand against the wrathful goddess, determined to protect their homeland at all costs, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. The goddess Quetzalcoatl decimated the entire soldiers who stood in her way with her bare hands.
Fujimaru, Mash, and their faithful companions finally reached the scene where the Goddess Quetzalcoatl threatened the peace of the city. Upon confronting her, Mash bravely launched an attack at the Goddess, but to their dismay, it seemed to have no effect on her divine form. Seeing the unsuccessful attempt, the wise mage Merlin stepped in and initiated a calm conversation with the Goddess Quetzalcoatl to unravel the mystery behind her sudden aggression towards the city. The goddess, with a smile itch on her, responded, "Why am I destroying Uruk? you asked, because we were called upon by mother to come and kill humans. But how I choose to do so is all up to me," cryptically emphasizing. Despite the chilling revelation, the Goddess assured Fujimaru and his companions that she had a self-imposed limit, vowing to only engage a hundred soldiers per day in her destructive mission. With an enigmatic smile, Quetzalcoatl summoned her majestic winged beast and departed from Uruk for the day, leaving behind a tense atmosphere of impending doom. As she disappeared into the horizon, she ominously promised to return on the morrow to claim yet another quota of lives in the name of her divine duty, casting a shadow of uncertainty over the city and its defenders.
After the chaos had unfolded, leaving Fujimaru and his companions utterly speechless at the events that had transpired, they found themselves in a state of profound disbelief. As they tried to process the gravity of the situation, their eyes met the captivating figure of the Goddess Jaguar Warrior, her presence commanding attention and awe. With a solemn expression, she revealed that she had been tasked by none other than Quetzalcoatl herself to retrieve the fallen bodies of the one hundred courageous soldiers who had given their lives in the battle. struck by her solemn duty, that the Goddess Jaguar Warrior carried out her duty with unflinching resolve. As she gathered the fallen heroes in her arms, a sense of reverence filled the air, making the departure a sombre yet dignified moment.
With heavy hearts, Fujimaru and his companions made their way to the grand halls of King Gilgamesh, where they sought to strategize and prepare for the impending return of the enigmatic Goddess Quetzalcoatl. The weight of the looming threat hung heavy in the air, driving them to assess every detail and craft a plan that would stand strong against the challenges to come.
King Gilgamesh issued a royal decree commanding Fujimaru, Mash, and their steadfast companions to embark on a courageous journey towards Erindu, with the noble quest of vanquishing the formidable Goddess Quetzalcoatl to reclaim the legendary Axe of Marduk. Setting out on their epic odyssey to Erindu, Fujimaru shared a cunning strategy with his loyal comrades, proposing a daring plan to sway Quetzalcoatl to join their cause. Venturing deep into the enigmatic jungle, they were abruptly confronted by the fierce and mighty Goddess Jaguar Warrior, who stood poised for battle.
Unfazed by her intimidating presence, Fujimaru approached the Jaguar Warrior with a warm and disarming smile, showering her with genuine admiration and praising her fearsome prowess. Through his eloquent words of reverence and respect, Fujimaru managed to subdue the Goddess Jaguar Warrior, winning her trust and allegiance.
