Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today

"Cheers!!!" ×n

Let's not talk about the fight between Merlin and Gilgamesh. Finally, Fujimaru Ritsuka and others prepared a sumptuous dinner. Everyone gathered at the table and clinked their glasses. They began to feast and praised the food.

Leonidas I, who usually refused to drink, took the initiative to pick up the wine glass this time. After getting drunk, he pulled Ushiwakamaru and others to chatter.

Anna murmured:

"Is this the crystallization of modern civilization... so amazing...!"

Not only that, even King Gilgamesh gave a high evaluation:

"This may be the meaning of human continuation!"

Gudafu scratched his head with some embarrassment:

"I think the meaning of human continuation is more than that..."

"No, no, no,"

Merlin shook the wine glass in his hand and laughed:

"This time I think the king is right."

"The birth of so many kinds of food is due to the prosperity of civilization and the creativity of mankind!"

"Is that what the king meant...?"

Gudafu was stunned when he heard the words, and then thought about it.

"Hmph."

Gilgamesh snorted lightly, and could not deny it.

However, Gilgamesh did not stay in the Chaldean Embassy for too long. After dinner, he just rested for a while and left in a hurry. In the end, no one knew why he came here suddenly.

Siduri smiled and guessed:

"Maybe the king was just in a momentary mood."

In any case, she knew how hard Gilgamesh had been working during this period of time, and she was happy to see such a short relaxation.

In short, today's modern food banquet was also a great success. Finally, Ushiwakamaru stood up and said:

"Then finally, let's toast to Miss Gudako and others and thank them for providing such a delicious dinner!"

"Cheers!"

"Cheers——!" ×n

…

…

——Don't——

——Don't leave——

——Don't——

——Leave me again——

——Don't leave again——

"…Hmm…"

The familiar and sad calling kept coming from his ears. Fujimaru Ritsuka opened his eyes in a daze, looking at the unfamiliar environment in front of him with a little confusion.

Her memory stayed at the scene of everyone going back to their rooms to rest after dinner. The last second of her memory was the clay roof facing the bed. As for now——

"Unrecognizable ceiling..."

No, to be precise, there is nothing that can be called a ceiling.

——[Transferred] again?

Sensing the abnormality, Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately woke up, and then found that she seemed to be suspended in the air, surrounded by a chaotic space, boundless, as if it would never end.

But more importantly, in front of her, there was a huge and familiar figure:

It was a huge and beautiful adult woman, with her eyes closed, as if she was sleeping, and her thick green hair spread like a waterfall to her feet, but the most eye-catching thing was the huge horns on her head and behind her.

There is no doubt that it was the goddess of creation in Sumerian mythology, the most powerful enemy in the seventh singularity, one of the seven evils of mankind, and the beast with the principle of [return], BeastⅡ——

"Tiamat?"

The moment she saw Tiamat, Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but be stunned.

But she quickly reacted and realized that the Tiamat in front of her was probably not the clingy loli mother in her Gary, but the second beast that belonged to this parallel world that had not yet awakened and had not been defeated.

"If that's the case, then am I now... in the [Mother Sea] of the imaginary world?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka stroked her chin and couldn't help but fall into deep thought, wondering how she got here?

After thinking for a long time, she pounded her hands and judged:

"——I must be dreaming."

Otherwise, it was really hard for her to imagine how a mere human could stay in the [imaginary space] safely with her flesh body instead of being torn into pieces in an instant.

Do you really think she is a human evil! ?

... Well... at least not yet.

As for whether a person can dream of coming to the imaginary space... anyway, she can, it shouldn't be that difficult... right?

——My child——

——Don't leave me again——

At this moment, the sad call that seemed to come from the depths of her soul sounded again, drawing her attention back to reality and looking at the huge Tiamat in front of her again.

Feeling the sadness, hatred, desire... all kinds of complex emotions that could not be dissipated, Fujimaru Ritsuka thought for a while, controlled her body, and approached Tiamat.

Although the Tiamat of this world should not be solved by her, but...

She came to the side of Tiamat's cheek, reached out to touch her skin, and smiled softly:

"If it's just for this period of time, I can still accompany you for a while."

"Mom."

The moment the voice fell, Tiamat's huge body seemed to tremble, and then quickly calmed down again. The emotional fluctuations that had been radiating outward gradually calmed down, and were replaced by a feeling of doubt.

——My child——?

Fujimaru Ritsuka said softly:

"Please sleep a little longer."

...

In silence, Tiamat seemed to have really fallen into silence, without any further response, and the entire imaginary space around her also calmed down.

"Is this all right?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka was a little uncertain, after all, she had never done such a thing.

However, she knew that even if she succeeded in making Tiamat fall asleep again, it would only be temporary. Even if she could really bypass her to repair the singularity, it would only delay her awakening.

To truly solve the crisis brought by Tiamat, she must face her again.

While she was thinking about the problem, suddenly, another familiar voice came from behind her:

"——This really scared me."

"Merlin?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka turned around and saw that Merlin's figure had appeared in this imaginary space at some point, with a smile on his lips as always, but his face showed unstoppable surprise.

He looked her up and down carefully, stroking his chin and said:

"You are, Miss Gudako? You are unexpectedly young and cute..."

"!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka was shocked, and then he realized that she was only wearing pajamas at this time, without a cloak, and her entire appearance was completely exposed to Merlin.

"I didn't expect that Miss Gudako had such superb skills."

Seeing this, Merlin smiled and said:

"I was scared because I noticed that Tiamat's mood fluctuations were very abnormal. I thought she was about to wake up, so I hurried over, but I didn't expect to meet you here, and I also saw such a scene."

Speaking of this, even Merlin's tone was a bit incredible, and he cast a curious look at her.

"And you know, even as a top magician, I risked my life to cast the illusion, and only then could I make the other party fall asleep. But you just did it with just a few words?"

"Is there any powerful magic that even I can't see?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka scratched his cheek and said:

"I think, there shouldn't be?"

"To be specific, I think it should be the power of [love] that played a role."
