Once faced with the oppression of the gods.
Moran also took revenge.
In the end, because he witnessed the beauty of the gods, he chose to let go of the idea of revenge.
Such as the love that Artemis gave to himself, the love of the great Zeus for mankind, and Hera's final loyalty…
He not only saw the evil of the gods, but also the good.
Moran's final decision was to continue to watch the world that the person he loved wanted to see.
For this reason, it doesn't matter even if he is against the world,
He chose to seal all the resentment he had endured and bury the pain of the past in the deepest part of his heart.
Moran wouldn't be like Alcides.
To carry out revenge, he directs the flames of his personal desires toward the world.
The reason why Alcides was like that is largely due to the loss of compatibility with the gods. The person he loved once died because of the gods.
The man named Alcides died on that day.
The man who moved forward was Alcides.
Therefore, Moran understood Alcides better than anyone else, and at the same time, he sighed at this aspect of his close friend.
Even if it was transformed from black mud.
But, this is undoubtedly the truth of Alcides, the truth of Alcides contained deep within his soul.
No one can deny it.
Ishtar Temple, in front.
Moran had already reached the entrance of the temple.
However, as soon as he arrived, he saw someone fighting.
Enkidu arrived at the temple one step ahead of Moran.
At this moment, Humbaba was opening a protective barrier, cooperating with the temple foundation controlled by Ishtar to block the harpoons flying towards them.
"Berserker! Lancer is above!"
Haruri was shouted at by Humbaba.
Even in the face of the hurricane that could take lives with a light touch, her retreat was only for a moment.
She was upholding her mission as the high priestess.
This is the belief that Haruri is now carrying out.
"…"
Enkidu also saw Moran.
She shot out chains that had been turned into Noble Phantasms to bind the temple, then wrapped the chain heads around the harpoons and pulled them back, forcibly dragging the harpoons towards the temple.
Distraction is not allowed during battle.
What's more, the enemy is Humbaba, who guards the cedar forest.
The moment she noticed Moran, she gave a faint smile, then refocused her attention on the battlefield.
A single smile is enough to express her meaning.
This is the tacit understanding between her and Moran.
Moran accepted the greeting from Enkidu, who was now busy seizing Ishtar's divinity.
She really didn't have time to chat with Moran.
After all, Moran could understand.
For her, there would be time to chat with Moran anytime, but the opportunity to teach Ishtar a lesson was rare.
Also, Enkidu's way of dealing with Ishtar was even more brutal than bandits.
She used the characteristics of divine weapons to carry out point-to-point strikes against Ishtar.
At this moment, Enkidu's goal had been half completed.
The divinity of the goddess Ishtar, the Mesopotamian gods, which filled the temple, was flowing into the harpoons through the chains.
"Ugh…! How could this be!"
Haruri's face showed a look of astonishment.
If this continues, not only will the confrontation between Ishtar and the shadows collapse, but Enkidu's power will also increase significantly.
If she still holds back at this critical moment, that Heroic Spirit will invade the domain of the goddess Ishtar.
As the Master, Haruri had to make a choice.
The question was whether to stop Moran from entering the temple, or to stop Enkidu from plundering Ishtar's divinity.
One of these two had to be chosen.
Looking at Moran casually walking into the temple, and then looking at Enkidu on the other side, who was completely unambiguous in her actions.
Intuition told Haruri that Enkidu was more dangerous.
If this guy takes away Ishtar's divinity, the result will be most unfavorable for their goddess.
"I command with a Command Seal!"
Haruri, as the high priestess, did not hesitate.
There is no absolute advantage in any battle.
As a magus, a priestess blessed by Ishtar, and the master of the Berserker, she was very sure that from here on out, any wrong step would cause irreparable fatal injuries.
Therefore, she shouted with all her might.
In order to fulfill her mission, she was willing to give up her life.
"Berserker… Defeat Ishtar's enemy with all your strength, that Lancer!"
Haruri didn't know yet.
How cruel the order she gave was to the Berserker.
However, the order had already been issued, and there was no room for withdrawal even if she wanted to.
Inside the Ishtar Temple.
He strolled all the way to the core of the divine realm.
Breathing in the air that was no different from the ancient age of gods, Moran's thoughts were drawn back to the past.
Before long, he came back to his senses.
The expression on his face also became serious.
"Divine Body Barrier, activate."
Moran's tone was flat.
However, it contained a solemnity that had not been seen before. He had been preparing for this moment for many days.
Silver armor that was incompatible with the ancient age of gods, an exoskeleton machine whose technology far exceeded modern technology, was instantly armed on Moran through magical convergence.
"Land sufficient to welcome the gods, a medium sufficient for the gods to descend, and a sufficient amount of Spirit Foundation… I have prepared all of these, and next is the summoning."
Moran raised his arms in the center of the temple.
At the same time, the magical circle was operating as Moran had expected, and he didn't need to bother to arrange it.
As a machine god technology, the Full Moon can easily complete even the arrangement of summoning formulas, as long as they are pre-recorded into the program.
A summoning magical circle that is larger, more complex, and more mysterious than ordinary Heroic Spirit summoning formulas is unfolding.
It takes Moran as the center of the ritual.
At the same time, Ishtar, who was fighting fiercely with Ereshkigal outside, felt an unusual fluctuation coming from inside the temple.
The foundation of her divinity was being shaken!
For a moment, Ishtar's face lost its composure, and an unprecedented look of panic appeared on her beautiful face.
