At that moment, all the voices disappeared.
Ishtar fell silent.
Chaldea and the others fell silent.
Everything in the surroundings fell into silence.
Rozen and Tiamat just stared at each other without saying a word or doing anything.
However, Rozen saw the sadness and longing in Tiamat's eyes.
Looking at Tiamat like this, recalling her crying and sad song in the Black Sea, Rozen seemed to understand a little.
He understood what kind of existence Tiamat was.
As one of the Gods of Creation in Mesopotamian mythology, the gods were born from Abbozu, who was freshwater, and Tiamat, who was saltwater. However, these children soon rebelled against Abbozu and killed him to gain control of the world.
Tiamat knew about this, but she calmly accepted the children's actions. However, she ended up attracting the sharp blades of the Gods. Even she was killed by the children, and her corpse was even split into two to be used to create heaven and earth, becoming a ritual for the creation of the human world.
After experiencing all of this, Tiamat was undoubtedly sad, miserable, and innocent.
Even though Rozen already knew that Tiamat's nature was somewhat different from what was mentioned in the myths, that she was the mother of all who designed life. It was only because she was not needed by this world that she was exiled to the virtual world. Her existence was evil, but this did not mean that she was emotionless.
Indeed, to this world, she was an existence that was not needed, and even more so, an existence that was not allowed to be needed. If she was allowed to continue living on the earth, everything on this planet would become chaotic.
However, as a Goddess of Creation who only had the meaning of giving birth to, raising, and loving children, during the period of hatred and betrayal, this Goddess also felt sadness and love.
In other words, while she was lamenting and hating, the "mother" part of Tiamat also existed.
In the depths of her heart, there was still love for her children.
Therefore, at the same time that she degenerated into a beast, degenerated into the evil of humans, in the end, Tiamat should also have the tragic wish of becoming the protection of humans, right?
That was why Tiamat behaved like this.
Rozen understood.
He understood why Tiamat hadn't made a move after waking up. She had been staying above the black sea and singing quietly.
The reason was the restraints on her body.
That was the seal that Tiamat had placed on herself, the final manifestation of her love for humanity.
Once this seal was broken, then Tiamat's love for humanity would be completely abandoned, and she would transform into the true evil of humanity, the Beast of Original Sin. She would destroy the world just for the sake of destroying humanity and replacing the ecosystem of this planet, driven by her instincts.
Right now, Tiamat's seal had yet to be broken, and her love for humans had yet to be abandoned.
That was why Tiamat was so sad and showed such longing.
The sadness came from being betrayed by a child.
Nostalgia was because they still had love and pity for their children.
The Tiamat in front of him hadn't fallen yet. She was still the Mother Goddess of Origin, the Sea of Life, who loved her children.
The reason why she kept looking at Rozen was because she sensed Rozen's threat and didn't want him to get close to her and break the seal on her body. On the other hand, it was also because she saw the child who had been listening to her crying. She couldn't move her eyes away from Rozen, right?
All life in this world came from Tiamat.
To Tiamat, as long as it existed in this world, it was her child.
The same was true for Rozen.
When Rozen came to her without caring about anything, Tiamat stopped singing. It was probably because she couldn't control herself. She didn't want to hurt her child, but she also wanted to look at him from a close distance.
From Tiamat's eyes, Rozen understood everything. He also understood that this goddess in front of him was the embodiment of Tiamat's last love and motherhood.
"Mother …"
Unknowingly, Rozen had subconsciously murmured this. He reached out to Tiamat's face and caressed her cheek.
Tiamat just watched quietly from the beginning until Rozen put his hand on her face. A stream of tears flowed from her eyes.
Then, Tiamat closed her eyes and leaned on Rozen's palm as if she was snuggling.
At this moment, Rozen could feel Tiamat's deep love. It made his heart tremble.
It wasn't just Rozen.
Looking at the beautiful goddess who was crying and leaning her face slightly on Rozen's palm, everyone was speechless.
"Mother …"
Ishtar also had a complicated look on his face.
However, at this moment, a voice sounded.
"Leave Mother's side, Master of Chaldea. As an Old Human, you don't have the right to continue receiving Mother's love."
Following these words, countless golden lights descended from the sky like lightning and shot towards Rozen.
"Danger!"
Ishtar cried out in surprise.
"Rozen!"
The people of Chaldea finally reacted, and their faces changed abruptly.
“.....!”
Rozen, who was immersed in Tiamat's sorrow and love, was also shocked. When he woke up, he turned into a phantom and dashed away without hesitation.
Boom!
Countless golden lights from weapons that looked like knives, spears, swords, and halberds landed in the black sea in front of Tiamat. With a loud bang, water splashed thousands of feet high.
"Aaaaaa — —!!!"
Tiamat suddenly opened her eyes and let out a cry that was unknown whether it was anger, reluctance, or anxiety.
That cry instantly calmed the black sea. The water splashed thousands of feet high and everything became calm.
So Rozen reappeared in mid-air and stared over there, his eyes cold.
"Are you okay?"
Ishtar immediately descended and came to Rozen's side, then glared angrily in front of him.
There, a figure slowly descended, arriving in front of Tiamat.
"I'm sorry I'm late, Mother. I had to deal with some matters and was slightly delayed."
The person turned around and knelt on one knee in front of Tiamat.
"Jin Gu!"
Ishtar yelled.
The person was Jin Gu.
But Jin Gu did not care about Ishtar at all. He only raised his head and looked at Tiamat.
"Son of Tiamat, Jin Gu, has officially returned, Mother."
Jin Gu said.
"Your child is me. We are the ones who will replace the old humans and inherit this land, the new humans of this world. The old humans who abandoned mother, rejected mother, and even banished mother are not worthy of mother's love."
"I understand that mother's love is selfless and great. Even the old humans are mother's children. I can understand that you want to love them, but please give up this love here."
"I will help you return to the right posture, we are the real God."
After saying that, Jin Gu raised his hands respectfully as if he was offering a tribute.
In his hands, a golden urn was shining.
"Holy Grail!"
Everyone in Chaldea exclaimed.
The Holy Grail of this era finally appeared.
