Chapter 337: Three Missions at Once

—

Ushiwakamaru was a military commander from Japan's Heian period. Earning countless achievements in her name, she was a brave warrior who went down in history as a legend.

Enough that she became a Servant after death.

It was a sunny morning today in this ancient city of Uruk. The air was warm and dry, with clear blue skies overhead. The sun shone brightly, casting shadows on the city's wall, clay brick buildings and streets.

However, the usually bustling street was silent and everyone was rather focused on the countless bodies of their King who floated over the wall.

One such person was Ushiwakamaru who too observed the King of Uruk as he waited for the Demonic Beasts who were rushing towards this place. She was lucky enough to climb a tower and see him in action from above.

Last time, this strong man massacred all the incoming monsters in a mere minute. Ushiwakamaru had not been able to sleep properly that night, too shaken by the sight she had witnessed. Yet, she was here again today to see him massacre the monsters again.

Because she knew it would be a huge pity if she missed the battles this man partook in. She had seen nothing like him in either of her lives.

This time the girl who went by the name 'Sisty' wasn't there. According to the rumors that Ushiwakamaru heard, that girl was grounded for doing careless damage to the palace. So Ushiwakamaru thought the fight today may last a bit longer than yesterday.

"They are here,"

Ushiwakamaru heard the King say, and the clones floating alongside him prepared for battle.

"Let's start. I am going to use my new Void skill."

The King muttered something that Ushiwakamaru didn't understand.

What was he up to?

Regardless of the answer, the enemy forces were approaching. There were thousands of demonic beasts, running behind one another, and all rushing towards the walls of the city.

As seconds passed, they approached closer. The mindless beasts craving for blood, all rushed toward their death.

Quetzalcoatl, Ishtar, Jaguarman, and the three Chaldean girls were present nearby. They had heard the rumors from last time, so they were interested in seeing what he was really capable of.

All the Kings raised their fingers at different points on the battlefield. There were ten of them, and a small black orb rushed from all their fingertips. When the orb of energy stopped at one spot on the battlefield, everything around it seemed to slow down in time for a second.

Then,

Black holes appeared.

– Chichungggg!

With gravitational pull irresistible, the ten holes in space and time called upon everything near it by a ten-meter radius.

One moment the demonic beasts were rushing towards the wall, and in the next moment they ceased to exist as the black holes pulled them and tore them apart into atoms invisible to the naked eye.

The battlefield was clear. Three seconds had passed.

* * *

[Ding! You have earned a lot of experience points!]

[You have leveled up!]

[You have leveled…!]

[You have…!]

[...!]

[You have leveled up 24 times!]

[You have reached Level 2200!]

[Your debuff has been weakened to 80%!]

[Due to you crossing a hundred in levels, you have earned your 23rd Voidmancer skill.]

"Alright. It's going very well."

Neji was satisfied with the result.

This skill he just used was his 22nd Voidmancer skill; one that he earned from reaching Level 2100 from the Quetzalcoatl quest. The description alone sounded strong, but the effect in real-life was mind blogging.

[Void Singularity: The ability to create a space-time singularity, a point in space-time where gravity becomes infinite. This can cause massive destruction by sucking and crushing everything within 10 meters of its vicinity.]

That was the skill. On top of that, he just earned another skill from reaching the 2200 Level. With a mental thought, a golden hologram skill page popped before his eyes.

[Void Nova: The ability to release a massive burst of void energy that can vaporize everything in its path.]

Neji smiled in satisfaction once again. "This thing's finally giving me good attack powers."

"Anata~!"

Suddenly, a flirtatious voice called from afar. Neji turned around to find Quetzalcoatl rushing towards him from the air, as she had kicked the ground.

The weird blonde woman landed right on Neji's chest, as she hugged him, and took a deep sniff of his nape.

"My anata's so strong. Why didn't you use this against me? Kya, did you not want to hurt me~?"

Neji was pretty sure her sturdy body would have been fine if he used this attack on her. Not that he even had this technique back then.

Neji held back from hugging her back, to not lose control and get a feel of her butt, and gently pushed her back.

"Let's go with that. Anyhow, let us return to the palace. I have to discuss the next stage of our plan."

Neji said and watched her pout hard. Crossing her arms, and looking away. This time she wasn't pretending, Neji noted. It was natural to be annoyed since he was pushing her back every time she approached him.

"Ugh,"

Neji sighed and pulled her closer to him by the waist.

"Let's wait until I regain my full power, alright? I'm afraid I might embarrass myself against you if we engage in 'that' right now."

Quetzalcoatl was a little surprised when he pulled her by the waist, and her previous pout was replaced with a small smile hearing him.

"Mhm~ But you don't have to keep pushing me away, you know? We can still be in touch and all that, right?"

Nope. She might get too horny and forcefully bring him to a room. Neji ought to keep a little distance from her.

"Alright, sure." Neji lied. "I will think about it."

Honestly, she was just his type. A toned body and a flirtatious personality that said that she was just playing. A part of him just wanted to bend her over and stop her little play, he wanted to make her moan like a lost bitch. But that part had to wait for a bit longer than that. He couldn't waste time fucking too much when he had other things to do.

"…Right. Back to the palace, please."

Neji sighed in his head and decided to leave. Since it had come to this anyway, he decided to bring Quetzalcoatl on a princess carry and flew to the palace with her.

It was weird how she couldn't fly herself, as a Dragon Goddess. Maybe her current class didn't allow her to bring out her wings?

Whatever the case, Neji flew to the palace with a blushing Quetzalcoatl in his arms.

* * *

After waiting for a few minutes in the palace, sitting on his throne, Neji finally saw the other girls enter the room.

Sisty was once again eating as she sat on a chair nearby. She had fixed the building as if it had never been damaged, so Neji threw her some food to eat. She really liked eating, since she had only been in his head until now and therefore could never taste anything.

Quetzalcoatl was insisting to sit on his lap until the other arrived, but Neji tactfully placed her on a seat opposite to Sisty. They didn't like to make eye contact, but it inevitably happened, they both scoffed and looked away.

"Oi, Gilgamesh!"

Ishtar came walking and yelled.

"What the hell was up with that power? You have void divinity since when?"

How many times was he going to repeat that he wasn't the same Gilgamesh? Neji ignored Ishtar and looked at Jaguarman and the Chaldean girls.

Neji looked at Da Vinci, as he said.

"We have succeeded in capturing three goddesses. One of which belongs to the Alliance. Now, it's time for us to recruit the last Goddess. Ereshkigal, my other half-sister, and Ishtar's twin."

The room went serious as everyone exchanged glances.

"Where is Siduri?"

"She is managing some miscellaneous things in the city."

Neji asked and received an answer from Mash Kyrielight. She looked a little nervous as she spoke, but she seemed to be wanting to redeem her behavior from a few days ago when she almost attacked him. When he gave Fujimaru the Sage Seal.

"I see. Let me contact her telepathically,"

Neji activated Jogan and found her, and then announced to her a tidbit of information.

"There, it's done. Now, like last time I am going to divide myself into three. One will stay here and take care of the beasts. While another of me will go to the underworld to meet Ereshkigal. The Chaldean team and Jaguarman will be accompanying this second me."

In the canon timeline, they took Ishtar with them. However, Ishtar is very immensely weakened in the underworld due to a curse, so taking her will not be smart. More so, since Neji knew where the underworld was located from Gilgamesh's memories—Gil had gone there three times before. So there was no need to take Ishtar along just to show path.

"The third me, however, is going to go to Judah. I'll go meet Ozymandias, a King of Egypt. He is on the hold of a Grail, as we speak. I want that. So, Quetzalcoatl and Ishtar will be accompanying me in this."

Everyone nodded soon. There wasn't any reason to retort to his plan.

A shadow/wood clone could go anywhere, however an Omnipresent Copy couldn't be further from as far as Neji's eyes could go. Thankfully, due to his special eyes that was Jogan, he could keep an eye on himself in a third-person POV to overcome this problem.

He hadn't thought of this before, when he first sent a clone to Jerusalem that was a thousand miles away. But now, that problem could be fixed as he could send a stronger version of himself.

"Alright,"

Neji stood up. However, he was still sitting. He just divided. As if a mirage, another him stood up, while he was still sitting. The two standing Nejis went to group up with either of the aforementioned groups.

"Alright, guys. I wish you a fruitful journey. You have three days."

With that, Neji waved his hand as the other two Nejis left flying—lifting their respective group in the air too, with the help of telekinesis.

Neji was doing three things at the same time, so he needed to be a bit more careful. He just hoped things will end well, and Rumi will be here as soon as possible.
