As soon as Ishtar entered the temple, he found his target. Abel was sitting on the table in front of Ishtar's statue, reading a clay tablet in his hand.
The sharp-eyed Ishtar recognized that the clay tablet was a compliment from her priest. Her face blushed as she quickly snatched the clay tablet and threw it on the ground.
"Hey, is it really you? You've recovered your strength." Ishtar asked Abel.
"We meet again, Ishtar!”Abel teased Ishtar in a flat tone.
" What…what Ishtar sauce? That's against the rules…" Ishtar covered his face with both hands, and his voice gradually lowered.
No! Ishtar took two steps back, adjusted his state, and asked again,
"Don't change the topic. I'm asking you what I mean. You should know.”
Abel decided to stop while he was ahead. After all, the future was long.
" Yes. After tens of thousands of years of recuperation, I've regained my rationality, but I can't take back the part of the power that was used to seal the Wandering Star Civilization.”Abel pretended to be dejected as he replied, considering his own situation.
"Is that so? I'm sorry, but we gods will never forget your sacrifice for Earth.”Ishtar seemed to be distressed as he comforted Abel.
Even though it didn't seem like much on the surface, he had been reduced from a life streamer in the universe to silently accumulating power on a planet.
It was as if he had suddenly fallen from a high god to a mortal. He definitely couldn't accept reality. Abel was already very strong.
Ishtar's heart ached even more when he thought of this, and his tone towards Abel became even gentler.
"I will stay in Sumer for a period of time before continuing my journey on this planet.”
Abel used his telepathy to sense Ishtar's thoughts. He held back his laughter and said to Ishtar.
This silly girl is so easy to fool. However, if it were any other god, they would probably believe me.
After all, back then, I was referring to the standard performance of a superhero. I reckon that my reputation in the Gods had already reached an extremely respectable level.
Fortunately, Ishtar could not read Abel's mind. Otherwise, he would have given Abel a golden star.
"Right, Ishtar! This is the reason why I came to your temple.”Abel handed Ishtar the information on Uruk's birth statistics.
"You'll understand after reading this."
"What is this…Is the situation before Uruk that bad?”Ishtar frowned, took the clay tablet, and looked at it for a while before shouting.
"It's over, it's over. If the gods knew, they would definitely laugh at me. They would definitely say that I'm the most useless goddess in the Heaven Realm!”Ishtar held his head, trembling at the thought of that scene.
"No, I can't become the laughing stock of the gods. I must kill all the people who know about it to be safe. Yes, let's start with Gilgamesh.”
Ishtar slowly raised his head and smiled.
Oh no, I've gone too far. As expected of Ishtar, the most egotistical goddess of Sumer. Her first thought was to silence him.
"Alright, alright. If you really kill Jill, Annu won't let you off easily no matter how much he dotes on you.”
Abel knocked Ishtar on the head and woke her up from her dark state.
"Then what should we do? " I don't want to become the laughing stock of the gods," Ishtar said with a sobbing tone.
"I have a way to solve this, as long as you…like this…in the end…”Abel whispered into Ishtar's ear.
Ishtar smelled Abel's fragrance and his breath. His ears turned red. He hadn't heard what Abel had said.
"Ha…ha, I, I know.”
Abel could tell from Ishtar's expression that she had not remembered anything.
"Forget it. I'll go out and announce your new prophecy later. You just have to agree.”Abel said helplessly as he walked out of the temple.
"Wait for me." Ishtar quickly followed Abel out.
"Hmph, the goddess will definitely kill that blasphemer. Her light will shine on Uruk. Even King Gilgamesh could not stop it.”The old woman laughed darkly.
Siduri looked worried. She had not expected God Ishtar to suddenly appear.
Dong dong dong! The door of the temple opened, and Abel and Ishtar appeared in front of them, chatting happily.
"Cough cough, listen up. I'm going to issue a new divine decree now. Marriage between close relatives was a sin. Father-daughter, mother-son, brother-sister, brother-sister, and so on who had sex would be punished with three years of hard labor. If one side coerced them, they would be demoted to slaves for life.”
Ishtar issued a new divine decree.
"Goddess, you can't! This would lose the dignity of the gods!”the old woman said excitedly.
"Presumptuous! I'm the city god of Uruk. When did you get to say that?”Ishtar scolded angrily, and Tianzhou Maana shot out a beam of light.
"Ah!" The beam of light pierced through her heart. The old woman's body was already weak, so she died on the spot.
"Humph!" Ishtar snorted and said to Abel," Are you satisfied?”
Although he was a little confused at first, he soon understood. Ishtar did this to save face and for Abel.
"Thank you, Ishtar-chan. I'm in Uruk. You're welcome to come and find me anytime.”Abel left the temple with the worshiping guards.
"Hey, your name is Siduri, right? From today onwards, gather all the information on that person and give it to me.”
Ishtar looked at Abel's back and gave an order to his priest. Then, he flew towards the Divine World.
"Who is that lord?" Siduril muttered to herself, feeling curious about what was going on.
