"Miss Xia Die...is very gentle."

Looking at Xia Die, Niu Ruowan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"Isn't Ushiwakamaru the same?"

Xia Die tilted her head slightly and looked at Niu Ruowan beside her.

The girl's spirited face showed a hint of surprise, not understanding why Xia Die would say that.

When not engaged in battle, Ushiwakamaru was nothing like the famous samurai of history, but rather a young girl, just like any other girl.

"I could see it on the battlefield. Although Ushiwakamaru was summoned, his desire to protect people is genuine. Otherwise, he wouldn't have fought so hard."

Looking at the butterfly in front of him, Ushiwakamaru was moved for a moment.

In her lifetime, she fought her way through life, but very few people could understand her. However, she never expected that Xia Die, whom she had only known for a few days, would understand her so well.

A wave of emotion washed over Niu Ruowan.

"It's getting late, Lord Ushiwakamaru. I would love to chat with you a little longer, but we both have missions tomorrow. Sweet dreams."

"Yes! I look forward to our next meeting. However, if we are fighting side by side on the battlefield again next time, I will protect Miss Xia Die well!"

Nodding vigorously, Ushiwakamaru said with a smile.

This is the first update; there will be another update later.

Xia Die (Absolute Demonic Front: Babylonia) : 22: Journey to the Underworld

When Xia Die stepped out of the room, Anna was already waiting at the door.

"It seems you're really looking forward to it, Anna."

Xia Die looked at Anna and said with a light laugh.

"No, I just don't want to stay in the city."

"Good good."

Seeing this, Xia Die didn't say anything, just smiled and nodded, and then set off with Anna and Merlin to Kusa City.

At normal speeds, it would take a whole day to travel from Uruk to Kusa.

However, none of the three people present were ordinary people. If Merlin hadn't been holding them back, Xiaodie and Anna could have reached Kusa City in half a day.

However, the equipment was already on its way to Merlin, and by the time they arrived in Kusa City, it was almost evening.

Of course, along the way, Xia Die and her companions encountered some ordinary people. After all, this was Ishtar's territory. Even though Xia Die and Ishtar seemed to have a good relationship, she was still a god and had her own quirks. So, Xia Die and her companions specifically inquired about a place in Kusa City that Ishtar had entered when she was not there.

"It's almost dusk... Let's set up camp here for the night. Kusa City isn't safe at night."

At this moment, looking out from the edge of the cliff, one can see the city of Kusa below. Even though the sky has not yet darkened, the city of Kusa is already shrouded in a layer of gloom, looking eerie from a distance.

"What's going on here?"

Anna frowned as she watched this scene.

"This place is very close to the underworld. At night, some undead or vengeful spirits will come out of the underworld under the cover of dusk. They hate the living. If you go in, you will be attacked."

Merlin said.

"How did they come to be?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Die frowned and looked into the distance as she spoke.

"It's the resentment of the dead. Perhaps they still have some lingering attachments. Of course, it could also simply be something that has been transformed into a demon. In any case, the living are very wary of these beings."

Merlin shook his head and said.

Upon hearing this, Xia Die nodded and said nothing more.

It wasn't until nightfall, after Merlin and Anna had fallen asleep, that Xia Die headed towards Kusa City alone.

The city of Kusa was shrouded in an eerie atmosphere at night. If an ordinary person came here, they would probably be so affected by this aura that they would lose their senses and their souls might even be dragged into the underworld.

If an ordinary person were dragged into the underworld, they might never be able to return.

However, Xiaodie naturally did not have this problem.

For Xia Die, she was simply the nemesis of these undead.

These monsters were incapable of harming her under any circumstances.

"What are you going to do?"

Just as Xia Die was about to enter the city, Anna's voice rang out from behind her.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to see Kusa at night. You know, undead and such things can't hurt me."

Xia Die chuckled softly. Anna's senses were sharp; her departure hadn't fooled him after all.

"You want to purify the dead, don't you? I noticed your eyes when Merlin mentioned it during the day. You... why did you act on your own?"

Anna looked at Xia Die with some dissatisfaction.

"I'm sorry, I just didn't want to bother you."

Startled by Anna's sudden and serious criticism, Xia Die paused for a moment before apologizing.

"This is the Age of Gods. It's dangerous to act alone. In any case, remember to take me with you on your next mission."

Anna then continued.

"I understand."

Xia Die nodded, then looked at Anna with a smile, making Anna feel somewhat uncomfortable.

"What...what happened?"

Unable to bear Xia Die's gaze any longer, Anna quickly spoke up.

"Anna, you're worried about my safety, aren't you? Thank you."

"It's normal to care about safety, right? After all, we're teammates..."

Anna turned her head to the side and looked at Xia Die, whispering.

"Ok?"

Xia Die tilted her head and looked at Anna. She hadn't quite heard Anna's voice because it was too soft.

"nothing!"

She suddenly raised her voice three octaves and said.

However, in the quiet of the night, the sound was rather too loud.

Especially when the surrounding environment is not very safe.

Soon, skeletons and vengeful spirits emerged from the dark corners, struggling in the endless, cold underworld. All they longed for was the warmth and flesh of the living.

However, in Xia Die's eyes, these beings posed less of a threat than the most ordinary magical beast.

"Rest in peace, please... have a good night's sleep."

Xia Die gently stroked the vengeful spirit in front of her, and soon, the vengeful spirit transformed into the purest soul and returned to the underworld.

When Xia Die expanded her domain, the undead stood still like soldiers, waiting for Xia Die's gentle touch.

However, Xia Die discovered that the number of these vengeful spirits was beyond what she could handle alone. If she were to deal with them one by one, it would probably take her hundreds of years without food or drink to completely clean up the spirits here and in the underworld.

Although she was kind, this period of time was still too long for her.

Xia Die was curious about the origin of these spirits. If the source could be found, perhaps the problem would be solved.

After thinking it through, Xia Die left Kusa City. For the endless stream of undead, a little purification was useless.

The next day, Xia Die, Merlin, and Anna entered Kusa City.

Although Gilgamesh said that the Tablets of Destiny were in Kusa, no one told them the exact location, so finding the Tablets of Destiny was still a very difficult task.

After discussion, the three decided to split up and act separately.

After all, if they didn't do that, they probably wouldn't be able to find it until dark.

Although the city isn't very big, it's still not something that three people can easily search out together.

In any case, all three of them are capable of protecting themselves, so there is no need to worry at all even if there are monsters in the city during the day.

However, after searching for a while, Xia Die discovered something was wrong.

There's a place ahead where the atmosphere doesn't seem right.

That is the boundary between the underworld and the real world.

If Xia Die is not mistaken, once you step into it, your soul will enter the underworld.

And there, there is something else.

The Destiny Tablet, the target of the Butterfly's visit.

If it were simply a matter of obtaining the clay tablet, it would be straightforward, but Xia Die hesitated.

Should we go to the underworld now?

After all, his half might be there, and he might even be able to find Ellie.

After only a moment's thought, Xia Die made up her mind.

went!

In any case, a trip to the Underworld is worthwhile; at least it can confirm whether the Titans' spark is in the Underworld.
