Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today

"Sorry, I didn't expect things to develop to this point."

In another battlefield, Jin Gu came to Ushiwakamaru and Merlin lightly and smiled:

"The appearance of your mother seems to have frightened you a lot."

His tone was very natural and relaxed. He didn't seem to be in a hurry to chase Gudafu and others. He looked like he was sure of victory.

"That's what I mean!"

Merlin followed his words and nodded in agreement, then smiled and spread his hands and said:

"In this case, why don't you just let us go?"

"I don't mind."

Jin Gu chuckled:

"After all, your demise is just a matter of time. Before the real destruction comes, it seems not bad to watch you struggle ugly like this."

"But..."

"——!"

Before the voice fell, Ushiwakamaru seized the opportunity at this moment, suddenly took action without warning, and instantly appeared in front of Jin Gu, swinging his knife!

"Clang!"

However, at the moment of the attack, an indestructible chain rose up from the ground at Kingu's feet, narrowly blocking Ushiwakamaru's attack!

"What?"

Seeing the opponent's quick reaction, Ushiwakamaru slightly widened his eyes in surprise, and then immediately jumped back with the force to avoid the opponent's counterattack chain.

Due to Ushiwakamaru's attack, Kingu's tone paused slightly, and then continued as if nothing had happened:

"...But if I let you go like this, I can't explain to my mother."

"So, please die obediently."

"Speaking of which, after losing so many important combat forces at once, I think Gilgamesh's expression should become quite exciting after hearing this news?"

Hearing this, Merlin couldn't help but tease:

"It sounds like you care about King Gilgamesh's feelings?"

"...Care?"

This sentence was like touching the other party's taboo, and the smile on Kingu's face disappeared instantly, replaced by a gloomy face and obvious murderous intent.

"Boring."

As the words fell, countless chains rose from the ground, all aimed at Merlin and flew towards him. In the blink of an eye, Merlin was pierced through the heart by thousands of arrows and turned into a hedgehog.

But the next moment, the figure of Merlin, who had turned into a hedgehog, turned into petals and dissipated.

The real Merlin appeared on the other side, looking at the cold-eyed Kingu, scratched his head and smiled with some shame:

"Oh, this is really, it seems that I accidentally poked someone's pain."

"Sorry, sorry."

"——Die for me!!"

...

...

In any case, they did achieve their goal and successfully delayed the pace of the Warcraft Goddess Gorgon and Kingu.

However, the situation is not optimistic.

On Kingu's side, Merlin did not have much ability to fight head-on, and could only rely on magic to assist Ushiwakamaru while avoiding Kingu's pursuit of him.

However, even with Merlin's magic blessing, Ushiwakamaru still found it difficult to cause damage to Kingu.

This is not a gap in technology and ability, but something more fundamental -

The functions of the two are too different.

The situation is also not good for the goddess of magic, Gorgon.

"Why is my attack completely ineffective?!"

Ishtar kept dodging and moving in the air, avoiding the opponent's attack, while letting out a miserable cry.

To be precise, her attack is not completely ineffective, but even if she succeeds in creating a wound on the opponent's body, it will heal instantly, and it looks like she is doing useless work.

"Is it the power of the Holy Grail? How despicable...!"

Ishtar finally reacted, gritting her teeth with some regret:

"If I had known earlier, I would have asked Jin Shanshan to give me the Holy Grail in his hand!"

"You can actually guess that the Holy Grail is in my hand? Your observation is good, but--"

Gorgon's tone gradually changed from teasing to impatience, and he said coldly:

"I've had enough of you, this annoying fly!"

"Ha--!?"

Ishtar raised her eyebrows angrily and retorted unceremoniously:

"Rather than saying I'm a fly, you, the fake, look more like a big moth, right?!"

"...You've been calling me a fake since just now, don't you know the basic etiquette to treat the goddess of creation Tiamat--?!"

"Just because of you--!"

Before Ishtar could refute, she suddenly saw Gorgon's eyes locked on her, his eyes bursting with a demonic purple light, and the next moment, her body almost instantly froze in place.

Damn!

The moment she was hit, Ishtar understood that it was the opponent's signature skill -

Petrifying Magic Eye!

For her, a servant of God, the power of the Petrifying Magic Eye was not enough to really turn her into stone, but the effect of stiffness was unavoidable.

And this was enough for the Gorgon.

The next moment, the Gorgon's snake hair suddenly attacked, bit her tightly with its bloody mouth, and then smashed her to the ground!

"Bang!"

The huge force directly smashed a deep pit in the ground. Ishtar tried her best to mobilize magic power to protect this fragile human body, but under this terrifying impact, she still couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood!

The situation is not good.

While paying attention to the situation on both sides, Merlin's brows were furrowed.

As far as the current situation is concerned, as long as he is not hit by Gorgon's petrifying magic eye, it is still easy for him to escape, but as Kingu said, Ishtar and Ushiwakamaru may be killed here.

Is there any way to take them both away, or at least take one away...

"...Wait, that is...?"

At this time, Merlin suddenly noticed the movement in the sky. He looked up and saw a familiar girl falling from the sky and landing in front of Gorgon.

He was immediately surprised:

"Hey, Gudako!?"

"But why...?"

Didn't she say that she wouldn't--

Just thinking halfway, Merlin suddenly reacted and showed a helpless expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

He originally thought that the other party's "not helping" meant that he would only be a bystander in the entire operation.

Now he finally understood that the other party's "not helping" seemed to be just saying that he would not help the Chaldeans.

Now that Gudafu and the others have successfully escaped, her actions certainly cannot be considered as helping Gudafu and the others.

"This is really..."

On the other side, Jin Gu also noticed the figure of Fujimaru Ritsuka, frowning slightly and saying:

"It's that guy."

The scene that day when the other party brought down a thunderstorm disaster, forcing him to cancel the attack of the monster group, he still remembered vividly. In his mind, the other party was a somewhat troublesome enemy.

- In this case, it's just right to kill her here!

He just thought of this, and before he could make any move, he suddenly found that Gorgon's situation seemed to be a little abnormal -

Fujimaru Ritsuka landed silently. Due to the breath shielding effect of the cloak, although Merlin and Jin Gu in the distance had seen her, it was not until she approached Gorgon's back that the other party barely noticed her presence.

However, before Gorgon could make any move, she smiled and pressed the things that had been prepared in her hand.

Then, a crisp questioning voice of a girl came out.

"——Medusa, what are you doing?"

"? !!!!!"

Gorgon's body froze in an instant, and he could not help but stammer and explain:

"No, I, I didn't..."
