3rd Pov
Everyone looked at the figure of Poseidon, they were surprised to see him alive, they have seen themselves his head roll into the hands of Jeanne, and his figure vanishing into golden particles. It wasn't an illusion, it indeed happened and Poseidon was dead, " Lord Poseidon!", Jeanne pulled Poseidon into an hug, tears poured down her cheeks and made Poseidon's chest wet.
" My Lord!", Jalter also hugged Poseidon chest and unlike Jeanne who was simply crying she started rubbing her cheeks against his chest, and sniffing his smell, naturally Artoria hugged him from behind as well, her bountiful breasts pressed hard against Poseidon's back. Amara too had the idea of joining their hug and wanted to leap at Poseidon when Scathach stopped her.
" Why?!", Amara grunted, and Scathach simply smiled," You will ruin their hug", she said making her jealous, she wanted to hug her Daddy as well! Receive his head pats! And maybe mate with him as well! Alas they remained as her mere wishes as Scathach had a firm grasp on her hand. Scathach was most mature of Poseidon's wives, thus she was least worried about when Poseidon died, as she knew he had just returned to throne.
However, she was angry at the Tiamat as well, after all the big-breasted bad mommy had hurt her lover after all. Thus, she had decided to fight with Tiamat even if it meant dying." My Lord I was so worried about you!", said Jalter as she looked at Poseidon, Jeanne looked at him as well, and Poseidon felt as if a pair of twins were looking at him, as Jeanne's and Jalter's faces were mostly the same.
He rubbed their heads, soothing them and said," It would seem my death affected your more than you thought, but do remember that was only a vessel", he consoled them, but Jeanne retorted," Even so! I can't see you dying! After all even if you are immortal it hurts right? When you die!", Jalter nodded and said," My Lord, I would rather let myself die than you, please forgive me for my weakness, I couldn't protect you".
" Indeed my Liege, we are your wives, but your subordinates as well, and it's our duty to protect you from the harm, even if you are stronger than us", said Artoria, and then she planted a kiss on Poseidon's back, many people blushed seeing her, but the King of Storms didn't care, she was shameless when it came to showing affection to Poseidon.
Poseidon finally had to calm them before breaking hugs, after which he received a hug from Scathach's body, experiencing the joy of embracing a near-perfect body again, and then he was hugged from Amara as well. " I was so scared Daddy!!!", Amara said as she hugged Poseidon like a koala and rubbed her cheeks on Poseidon's," Amara, you are indeed a strong girl, I am proud of you", he said.
He knew that Amara didn't falter after his death but charged at Tiamat despite the despairing situation, and even lost her arms, but she was unfazed by it. Hearing his praise Amara started giggling, despite having an adult body and somewhat mature mind, she was only a few years in the end, and Poseidon didn't forget it, so he hardly ever reprimanded her unlike her mothers.
" Master! You are alright! I was so scared when I saw your dead body! I mean how dare that bitch do it?!", Ishtar said making Gilgamesh chuckle," What?! Goldie you are half-dead and yet have strength to laugh!", Ishtar taunted him, Gilgamesh's body started turning into golden particles much to the shock of Ritsuka and his remaining group.
" Gilgamesh made himself dead and then ascended to Throne of Heroes and then descended into the underworld", explained the White Haired Half-Incubus," Fucking Bullshit!", Ishtar spat, even she was shocked by the outrageous feat of the Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes just laughed and said," Haha! See you above Ishtar!", and vanished.
" Damnit Master! Once I get the chance I will kill him!", growled Ishtar, still she felt something weird about her words, which others noticed but didn't comment. " Lord Poseidon, I am happy you are okay!", said Ereshkigal as she came near him and fell on his chest," You have drained your divinity completely", Poseidon said, his face unchanged.
" Indeed, I am barely persisiting in this state, it will take years for me to recover naturally, and once the end of age of gods has met it's conclusion... We will die", Ereshkigal said, sadness filled in her voice. Her words made everyone silent," Is that so?", Poseidon said and grabbed her back and then Ereshkigal moaned,"~Ahh!~", though she blushed the next moment.
" M-My divinity is recovering?!", she said surprised and looked at the man who had performed the miracle," Create Greater Item", Poseidon said and a Bouquet of the flowers appeared in his hand and he gave it to her. " Fl-Flowers! Th-They are so beautiful!", she exclaimed, and the next moment she felt her cheeks becoming moist.
" I-I am crying?", she said to herself, and Poseidon again chanted," Create Greater Item", then a bag of seeds appeared in front of her, he placed it in her hand, her body already separated from his, he said calmly," You helped us, and I know you like the flowers the most, so this is my reward, for helping us", he said, she looked at him with a blush and then at the seeds.
" Fill up the Underworld with flowers, these will grow in underworld, never rot, and blossom forever, let your twilight be a joyful one", Poseidon paused and then smiling slightly he said," After all the gods had passed away, let's meet at the Throne of Divine", his words made her heart flutter. She blushed heavily, looked down and managed to muster up to whisper," Thank you!", and then teleported away.
Suddenly, Merlin came in front of the Poseidon and said," I thank you for saving the humanities, I have but a humble request, I have a question, how did you return back into singularity?", his words spiked the anger of Poseidon's wives and his daughter, even Jeanne looked at him with unkind eyes.
Artoria summoned the Divine Lance in her hand and pointing it at Merlin whose face became pale she said," Come here bastard! Let me Rhongomyniadize you fucker!", her Lance started glowing and Merlin quickly said," Please stop!! Let's be civilized shall we?! I am just asking of curiosity! I didn't mean anything else!", but Artoria didn't listen to his words.
Merlin knowing he had fucked up quickly hid behind Ritsuka who shouted," What are you doing?!", Merlin shamelessly replied," Saving my ass!!", " Get away from Senpai!", Mash shouted but Merlin quickly used a spell, creating a barrier around him Ritsuka letting Mash and Kiyohime being unable to help Ritsuka.
" Leave it", Poseidon said and Artoria stopped, then he came next to Merlin, his hand casually broke through the spatial barrier erected by Merlin and he grabbed his neck," Wizard, I don't like jokes. Immortal or not, next time you antagonize me or my wives, I will send you to throne of Heroes", then he left the hold of him, letting Merlin fall on the ground.
"*Cough* *Cough*", Merlin coughed out saliva and said," Thankyou for your Me-", his words stopped in middle as a Trident passed through his chest, Poseidon said with a grin," You can return to Avalon now", he said and took out his Trident, Merlin's visage vanished into golden particles. Ritsuka and his servants gulped, Quetzalcoatl said," Cold as ever huh? Are you sure you are not God of Death and Cold?", she joked.
" I am not, my brother Hades is god of Death and Cold", Poseidon replied amused, Quetzalcoatl laughed and said," Well then it's time I depart, till we meet next time!", she said and vanished, Anna came beside Poseidon despite his casual killing of Merlin, she waited till now, as she felt it would be rude for a devotee like her to interuppt Poseidon and his wives.
" Lord Poseidon", she said and Poseidon patted her head," You did a good job Anna", he said and Anna nodded happily, she didn't care if she wasn't the cause of Gorgon's death, but since she got Poseidon's praise she was full of mirth. ' Hehe, Big sister Stheno, Big sister Euryale, now you both will be jealous when you heard about it! You big bullies just you wait! ', she thought mischeviously.
" Take this", the next moment Poseidon threw a grail at Ritsuka who caught it," This is!", Mash said and Kiyohime completed her sentence," Holy Grail!", Ritsuka looked at him gratefully and bowed," On behalf of humanity and Chaldea, I present our gratitude, Lord Poseidon", he said, Poseidon didn't care much about him, and just nodded.
" I guess it's time we leave as well", Scathach said, and Poseidon nodded, then he looked at Jeanne and said,' System connect her to my Throne as well ', and the system replied,[ It will take 0.69% of your merits, and *ahem* It's really a nice number], Poseidon gave a nod and suddenly Jeanne felt a connection to another throne," Lord Poseidon?", she asked worried.
" I have created a connection between our thrones, this time you will return to my Throne", he said explaining her causing her to be relieved and joyful," Finally! I will be able to stay with Lord Poseidon forever!", she said, her voice sounding a little dark in the end, but other's ignored him, and Poseidon didn't care if he got another Yandere lover.
The next moment they vanished, leaving the singularity. Ritsuka and his servants decided to leave as well," Only if Sir Hektor had survived", Ritsuka said with sadness and Da Vinci replied," Do not worry, we might be able to re-summon him, now that his data is stored in Chaldea", her words caused a glimmer of hope to appear in his eyes.
After that, he left to the surface, where he met King Gilgamesh, and they enjoyed his hospitality for a while," It would seem since except for Tiamat, everything was the natural course of history, so once this singularity repairs, it won't cause them to lose their memories, atleast for a few of them", Romani concluded, " Haha! I won't forget you, or Poseidon. I had question to ask, alas they left quickly, anyway let me ask you, how was the Uruk?", Gilgamesh asked.
" It was wonderful!!", they replied making him erupt in laughter, after enjoying the hospitality of people, they left. Uruk and his people were unharmed due to Poseidon, suddenly the distorted reality recovered, the next moment Gilgamesh was standing on the edge of his palace. " My king? Is something the matter?", Siduri asked.
Gilgamesh looked at the sky with a smile, his eyes narrowed slightly and he said," It's nothing", he knew that it was best for this incident to be buried forever, as it might result in formation of a parallel timeline. At the same time Ishtar vanished, her heart slightly empty, while in Underworld Ereshkigal looked at the valley of flowers, plucked one and inhaled its scent," We will meet again", she whispered.
