The moment she appeared, the Almighty Great God Zeus was stunned: "You… you can descend again?!"
The woman before him had a tall, slender figure, with long blue hair cascading freely down her back.
A pair of massive dragon horns curved outward from her head,
while a dragon tail swayed gently behind her—
She was none other than the Goddess of Regression, the Second Beast, the Beast of Humanity, the Primordial Mother Goddess—Tiamat!
She had already been defeated once.
Nameless had turned the Three Goddess Alliance against her, joining forces with the King of Heroes and the Grand Assassin, King Hassan, to assemble a dream team that ultimately banished her to the void of the Imaginary Number Space.
Yet now, she had descended once more!
Behind her, the gateway to the void of Imaginary Number Space slowly closed.
This was a Beast of Humanity!
More rejected by the world than even the gods.
If even the Olympian gods couldn't descend freely, she should have had no way to breach the world's barriers.
Her descent alone would threaten human history—how could Alaya possibly permit it?
And this…
was her second descent!
The last time she appeared, she had swatted the projections of the Council of Gods like flies, one slap each.
They had no choice but to flee with their tails between their legs, utterly unwilling to face her.
At this thought, a bold and horrifying realization struck the Almighty Great God Zeus.
As the famous detective Sherlock Holmes once said:
"When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."
"Could it be… Alaya itself released her?"
Yes—only this explanation could account for why she was able to descend a second time.
In that instant, the Almighty Great God Zeus understood everything.
So, the one widely regarded as the biggest "Emiya fan" was actually true!
That collective human consciousness, Alaya, had allowed a Beast of Humanity to descend into the world—all to aid the Nameless Heroic Spirit before him!
Truly, it wasn't his fault—the world itself was to blame!
As he reeled in shock, countless spectators were equally stunned—
-[Holy crap! The Beast of Humanity Tiamat has descended. Are we supposed to form another dream team to fight the boss?]
-[Fight my ass! Can't you see Tiamat holding Nameless in her arms? Clearly, she's backing him up!]
-[Nameless: Mom, someone's bullying me, waaah! Tiamat: Dare to touch my most beloved child? You're digging your own grave!]
-[Tiamat is so gentle and beautiful—I wanna be her child too!]
-[You wanna be her child? Nah, you just wanna get with her, you shameless pervert!]
-[Those with a mom are treasured (Nameless), those without are like weeds (Zeus)!]
Tiamat (Arcade Second Ascension).
Rin was stunned. "Tiamat has descended again?"
Anyone could tell at a glance—the gentle woman who had quietly appeared, making the Almighty God tense with caution, was none other than the genuine Beast of Humanity, Tiamat.
The maternal aura radiating from her, so warm it made people want to throw themselves into her arms and call her "Mom," was utterly impossible to imitate.
After all, this was the primordial, majestic power that had birthed countless lives.
Inside the mental conference room in her mind, the two goddesses were plunged into existential crises.
Ishtar muttered blankly, "We're supposed to be Tiamat's children, so why does she favor Nameless so much while ignoring us?"
As the Lady of the Heavens of Mesopotamia, no one was more qualified to call Tiamat "Mom" than her. After all, all the gods were her creations—her children.
"Was it because we attacked her before? Hmm, but that doesn't make sense—Nameless fought her too," Ereshkigal mused, equally confused.
In the previous Singularity, Tiamat—betrayed by the gods and manipulated by the Demon God King—had returned, intent on destroying humanity.
Nameless, as a guardian of human history, descended into the Singularity, leading gods and Heroic Spirits in battle against her.
In a way, it was Nameless who had exiled her once again!
Rin couldn't help but interject, "Wait, have you forgotten? Nameless never actually attacked Tiamat!"
"Never attacked her?" Ishtar blinked.
"Ah! That's right!"
Ereshkigal suddenly understood.
Now that she thought about it, throughout the entire battle against Tiamat, Nameless had never once raised his sword against her.
He had strategized to turn the Three Goddess Alliance, struck down the malignancy of the Beast Goddess Gorgon, and helped Ana regain her rationality as the Beast Goddess.
Together with Quetzalcoatl, he severed Tiamat's horns, preventing her from taking flight.
The new Chains of Heaven, Kingu, bound Tiamat's advance.
Ishtar blasted her into the trap Ereshkigal had dug—a pit leading straight to the Underworld.
The Grand Assassin, King Hassan, bestowed upon her the Concept of Death.
The final blow came from the King of Heroes, who used Ea to send her plummeting into the Underworld.
And Nameless?
He had charged straight into Nega-Genesis, faced Tiamat directly, and spoken to her.
From start to finish, he had never drawn his sword against her.
While everyone else feared Tiamat, Nameless had pitied and sympathized with her.
He treated her as the Primordial Mother Goddess, as Mom.
He urged her to let go of humanity—her now-mature children—and allow them to grow on their own.
These words had clearly struck a chord with the lonely Tiamat, who willingly lent him her primordial power to repair the Singularity.
And even resurrected Ereshkigal, who had died opposing her!
"Is this also part of your plan, Nameless?" Ishtar couldn't help but grit her teeth.
Indeed, ever since entering the Singularity, that bastard Nameless had already scripted everything!
Even a goddess like her was merely a pawn in his hands, utterly unable to escape his grasp!
As the two goddesses were completely doubting their divine existence...
In reality, sitting to the side, Sakura couldn't help but exhale deeply: "So this Beast of Humanity is Senpai's true trump card after all!"
With the arrival of Tiamat, the Beast of Humanity, her lonely and helpless Senpai could finally use this to oppose the Almighty Great God Zeus.
Among all the heroic spirits and deities, this Beast of Humanity was the last one she needed to consider as a love rival.
After all, Senpai also called her "Mother Tiamat"—nothing to worry about.
Surely Senpai wouldn't have any special feelings for Mother Tiamat, right?
In contrast, what puzzled Sakura more was...
Looking at Tiamat, the Beast of Humanity, gave her an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
As if—
They were the same kind???
This was far too strange. She was just an ordinary human—how could she possibly be the same as a Beast of Humanity?
Even her elder sister's past life was merely the goddess Ishtar, nowhere near the level of a Beast of Humanity!
Yet, for some reason, Sakura felt inexplicably happy.
Since childhood, she had been the green leaf to her sister Rin's flower, always yearning to catch up to her.
If she truly was a Beast of Humanity, wouldn't that mean she had completely surpassed her elder sister?
Under the gaze of everyone—
Tiamat, the Beast of Humanity, descended and cradled Nameless in her arms.
Only her gentle, elegant voice could be heard: "Aaaaa~"
Without [Alaya]'s real-time translation, ordinary people couldn't possibly understand what was being said, even if they heard it.
This language originated from the dawn of creation, its very syllables imbued with mysteries beyond all comprehension.
However.
Zeus, the Almighty Great God who rivaled the Beasts of Humanity, could understand it clearly.
The meaning of those words was—
[Harm him, and you will die.]
A simple statement, as casual as asking if one had eaten, yet brimming with infinite threat.
Because this was a warning from the Primordial Mother Goddess.
Instantly, Zeus was consumed by fury.
Before, as an ordinary god, his avatars had been obliterated one after another by her mere slaps.
From start to finish, she hadn't even spoken a single word to them—just silently swatting them away like flies, an unprecedented humiliation.
Now, after devouring the gods and merging all divine authorities to become an Almighty Great God of the same rank, he was still being treated with such utter contempt!
Unacceptable!
Zeus snorted coldly, "So the great Nameless Heroic Spirit who guards human history is just a nursing baby hiding in his mother's embrace?"
These words were the ultimate insult, dripping with boundless contempt.
Their purpose was clear—to provoke the other party into abandoning the use of this formidable trump card.
Strangely enough.
The words did indeed stir something in the opponent, but it wasn't anger—rather, it was a faint trace of awkwardness.
???
When I type a question mark, it means something's off about you!
Nameless's expression shifted briefly before he quickly regained his composure.
As expected of the Almighty God—it seemed he possessed something akin to Clairvoyance!
If the scene of him being healed by Tiamat were exposed, the entire world would undoubtedly be thrown into shock.
Everyone else might chant "Tiamat" in reverence, but only he was truly cherished like a precious treasure.
Hmm, the feeling of making others seethe with envy while being utterly powerless to do anything about it—now that was satisfying!
Nameless gently freed himself from Tiamat's embrace and whispered, "Tiamat, please grant me your power once more. Let me be the one to defeat him!"
After all, Tiamat was a Beast of Humanity, an enemy of mankind.
If she were to unleash her full strength, countless innocent lives would undoubtedly be threatened.
But as the strongest guardian under [Alaya], he could safely wield her power without harm.
This was precisely why [Alaya] had allowed Tiamat to descend into the world—
To give him the ultimate support, the strongest healer!
Instant full HP, instant full MP, ultimate buffs—she was the ultimate support with all these stacked bonuses!
With Tiamat backing him, even the Almighty God Zeus could be defeated!
Tiamat's cross-shaped pupils gazed at him with boundless tenderness: "Aaaaa~ (Of course. Don't push yourself too hard—I'm here~)"
"Thank you, Tiamat!"
Nameless expressed his gratitude once more.
It was clear that if he were truly in mortal danger, she would act without hesitation, consequences be damned.
If a top-tier Beast of Humanity were to go all out, the devastation would far surpass even that of the Almighty God!
Just imagine—
In the myths of China, if Pangu—who split the world and whose body became all of creation—were to reclaim his form…
The entire nation would be instantly obliterated, and two billion lives would vanish without a trace!
So, for humanity's sake, and for his own, he had to defeat Zeus with his own hands!
Hum~
As Tiamat granted her blessing, a surge of immense power coursed through his body.
This was the Primordial Force of the Mother of Creation, granting him the means to stand against the Almighty God.
Let's not forget—even the orbital cannon of the Great Wall in space had failed to so much as scratch Zeus earlier!
At this moment.
Nameless finally regained a fraction of his former peak strength, feeling an unprecedented sense of ease.
He looked at the Almighty God before him and couldn't help but sigh softly, "Look at you—you really are like a dog."
Despite devouring the gods and attaining Primordial status, rivaling the Beasts of Humanity…
In the end, all of it was merely the will of the true Machine God Zeus, influenced by that even more mysterious Primordial Father.
This so-called Almighty God, who called himself "God," was in truth nothing more than a—
Dog!
Hearing this, the Almighty God Zeus sneered, "Hmph. A mere mortal, granted a fraction of Primordial power, dares to challenge me?"
He had already discerned that this terrifying Beast of Humanity, for the sake of humanity's safety, could not unleash her full strength.
And he didn't care in the slightest how many would die.
This was precisely his greatest advantage!
Zeus roared with laughter: "After I utterly annihilate you all, everyone will kneel at my feet as my most fanatical worshippers!"
BOOM—
The heavenly thunder wildly expanded, transforming into massive lightning dragons that coiled across the sky.
This fool before him, already at death's door, still dared to arrogantly curse him.
Once he crushed him completely, everyone would be reduced to nothing more than his caged dogs!
The lightning dragons rampaged, turning the surroundings into a domain of violet thunder.
Within this sea of lightning, even heroic spirits would be obliterated in an instant.
This was the primordial, majestic power—
transcending gods and heroic spirits alike.
No mortal, no matter how desperately they struggled, could ever hope to defeat him!
The Almighty god Zeus, wreathed in endless lightning, bellowed in fury: "O sky, be torn asunder! O stars, be shattered! All that is above belongs to me—I who rule the stars!"
[I am the thunder that rends the heavens—World Discipline Keraunos!]
The sea of lightning condensed to its absolute limit, forming a blinding pillar of violet radiance.
The cataclysmic force of destruction poured down upon Nameless, seeking to annihilate him in a single strike!
HUM—
Countless runic energies surged beneath Nameless' feet, forming intricate, arcane patterns.
This was his Reality Marble—
[Unlimited Blade Works!]
Yet this infallible technique failed to drag the enemy within.
The divine spirit core of this Almighty god was too vast—enough to rupture the entire Reality Marble!
But it didn't matter.
If he couldn't swallow the enemy, then he would make himself the Reality Marble!
Thus forming the ultimate defense against the terrifying lightning.
After all, with Tiamat's presence, he feared no injury!
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!
The sound of forging iron echoed within his body, as if a massive furnace hammered relentlessly.
The boundless power of ten thousand blades poured into the Ea in his grasp.
HUM—HUM—HUM—
Ea spun violently, erupting with crimson radiance that formed a dazzling pillar of blood-red light.
Nameless swung his sword without hesitation: "With mortal flesh, I slay the divine—"
[The Severing of Heaven and Earth, the Star of Creation—Enuma Elish!]
