Chapter 499: I Still Have to Reject You
"More than defeating you, more than letting you die, I want to have you, I want to be with you even more. I also want to continue living those interesting and not boring days like before, listening to your voice, Moran."
The strength of her hands on Moran’s shoulders increased.
Ishtar’s eyes showed earnestness.
She was saying, "I won’t kill you."
It was almost a form of self-abandonment.
Even a goddess as greedy as Ishtar would still show reluctance and hesitation when faced with destroying her most beloved thing.
The beauty of the past was the shackle that bound her actions.
"You might not believe me, but I do love you. However, I can’t just tolerate Ereshkigal like this. My tenderness is only reserved for you alone."
Ishtar said urgently.
When a tsundere gives up all pretense, all she can use are straightforward confessions.
And this is often proof that she has reached her limit.
