"how?"

Ushiwakamaru looked at her with concern.

"I have found the spark."

Xia Die breathed a soft sigh of relief and said.

"The rest of the time will depend on you. I need a quiet place to undergo the trials of the Death Titan. During this time, the task of delaying will be yours."

Xia Die looked at the people in front of her and Gilgamesh, and said softly.

"Don't worry, even if it's just one person left, I will intercept Tiamat after you wake up."

Thanks to the intervention of the Butterfly, the number of survivors in Uruk has increased dramatically compared to those in the distant past. In the original story, due to the invasion of several waves of monsters, Rahmu, and the Chaos Tide, only five hundred people remained in Uruk. Now, there are still ten thousand people left!

This is already a remarkable feat for the world.

"So, how long will it take you?"

Gilgamesh looked at the butterfly and asked.

"do not know."

"do not know?"

Gilgamesh's smile suddenly froze.

I do not know what that means?

"This is the trial to become a god. It's my first time too, and I don't know how long it will take."

Xia Die shook her head and spoke again.

"So, during my absence, you must hold on, at least try to delay Tiamat's actions as much as possible, otherwise, everything will be over."

"Isn't this too difficult? At the current pace, Mother should only need about a day to reach Uruk. What if this trial takes ten years?"

Ishtar covered her head and said, sounding somewhat distraught.

"I will be buried with you in this era."

Xia Die said with a smile.

"Easy for you to say..."

Ishtar looked dejected, sighed, but said nothing more.

How to stop Tiamat is something they need to think about, but at this moment, there is only one thing for Xia Die to do: merge with the fire seed and become a demigod of death.

Or rather, to become the Titan of Death.

Inside the room, Xia Die sat on the bed, while outside the door stood Ushiwakamaru, who was guarding her.

She was no longer of any use in this level of combat; all she could do was protect Xia Die outside the door.

Inside the room, Xia Die looked at the flame in her hand, took a deep breath, and then pressed it into her body with both hands.

The next moment, she lost consciousness.

When she woke up again, almost a day had passed.

At this moment, Tiamat's body was already close to Uruk.

The trial of the Fire Seed was much simpler than expected. Everything seemed to fall into place naturally. The moment she merged with the Fire Seed, its power began to fuse with Xia Die. After all, this was her half-body; she was simply reclaiming her own half.

Unlike the other Titans, the deceased Titans were originally two souls in one, and the moment she received the spark, Xia Die passed the trial.

These few hours of slumber were merely a preparation for adapting to the new power.

"You're awake!"

When Xia Die walked out of the room, Niu Ruowan, who was waiting outside, was overjoyed and said excitedly.

The two exchanged few pleasantries as a deafening roar exploded in their ears.

The group is still working hard to stop Tiamat.

The commotion just now was Quetzal's all-out attack.

However, the obstruction wasn't very effective.

Although she lost the Chaos Tide, Tiamat could still levitate her body using magic.

However, Quetzal's sacrifice was not entirely in vain; Tiamat's magical organ on her head cracked under the blow.

Then, Anna, who had completely taken control of Gorgon's body, appeared and used her powers to seal Tiamat's ability to fly.

When the opponent can only act by relying on the chaotic tides they produce.

When the butterfly arrived, Gilgamesh was already planning to take action himself.

"Hmm? Faster than I expected. It seems I can save my magic for the final battle."

Raising an eyebrow, Gilgamesh looked at the arriving Xia Die and said with a smile.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting."

Quetzal and Anna's departure did not sadden Xia Die; their contract was still with her, and she could summon them again at any time. However, her immediate priority was to stop Tiamat.

"Now it's my turn to make a move."

Ishtar looked at Xia Die with a smile on her face.

"Yes, I'll leave it to you, Ishtar."

After Xia Die woke up in time, there was only one thing left for everyone to do: shoot down Tiamat and send her crashing into the underworld.

Ishtar's Noble Phantasm can do just that.

"The mountains are shaking, tomorrow's wages!"

In an instant, a massive impact descended from the sky, the powerful force striking Tiamat and hitting her body.

The ground collapsed, and the enormous impact carried Tiamat's massive body as it plummeted toward the underworld.

All around, endless rubble tumbled, and just moments later, the group plummeted into the underworld.

Not far away, there was Tiamat's enormous body, buried in dust.

"It's finally here. Looks like we've reached the final step."

Ai Lei looked at the butterfly that had adjusted its posture and slowly landed in front of her, and said with a smile.

"Sorry for making a mess of your underworld."

Looking around at her surroundings, Xia Die said with some guilt, "I〢Ier罒吧〨咝〒".

"It's alright, I've already moved those flowers beforehand. As for the rest of the underworld, it's all the same anyway, so it doesn't matter."

Not far away was Tiamat, who was bound by the rules of the underworld.

However, this level of restraint is not enough to control Tiamat.

This point had already been told to everyone when Xia Die described the other party's abilities.

In fact, that's exactly what happened.

After Ereshkigal unleashed her Noble Phantasm in an attempt to end Tiamat's life, Tiamat finally revealed her strongest form.

His spirit base gradually began to expand, and the damage he suffered when he fell into the underworld gradually recovered. His body, which was originally only slightly beast-like, had now completely begun to mutate.

Fangs burst forth from its mouth, and its hands and feet gradually transformed into ferocious claws.

If the previous Tiamat was more human than beast, then the current Tiamat is more beast than human.

Moreover, after the complete transformation into beasts, a tide of chaos gradually began to emerge.

Seeing this, Xia Die's eyes became solemn. With a wave of her hand, the River Styx gradually formed in the underworld, beginning to block the impact of the chaotic tide.

After becoming a Titan, she could easily manipulate the River Styx.

With the two waves colliding, Tiamat's attack was gradually neutralized.

"Oh dear, I thought I could pull off a cool rescue, but it seems that's not necessary now."

As the River Styx and the Chaotic Tides clashed, a familiar voice gradually rose.

The next moment, the chaotic tides transformed into a white sea of ​​flowers and vanished into the air.

"Merlin?"

Ishtar looked at the other person in shock; she had witnessed him die with her own eyes.

"No doubt about it, what appears here this time is the real thing. I escaped from Avalon."

He said with a smile.

"However, we've only reached this stage so far; it's not enough to defeat Tiamat."

As he spoke, Merlin glanced at Xiaodie beside him.

"Well, leave it to me."

Xia Die nodded gently, then slowly walked forward.

In his hand, a white sickle gradually appeared.

"Embrace new life, Polyces!"

The scythe in her hand slashed towards the sky, and in an instant, the space was torn open by the butterfly, revealing a pair of eyes that shimmered with fluorescence.

Then, the claws tore open a crack, which grew larger and larger until it was wide enough for Polyces to pass through. With a single burst of strength, Polyces appeared in the world.

"This is..."

Merlin was somewhat surprised to see the dragon that suddenly appeared, which was slightly inferior to Tiamat but not much smaller.

"This is my half-body, the dragon that brings death, Polykes."

Xia Die explained gently to him.

The next moment, she waved her hand, directing Polyces to charge toward Tiamat.

"May death protect us, Mother! May you fade away now!"

In an instant, Polyces roared and charged straight at Tiamat.

In the sky above the underworld, Polyces spread its wings, and jet-black dragon flames fell from the sky, scorching Tiamat's body.
