Capítulo 34: Corrupted
Hessian POV
Well this is annoying. We chased the Lahmu to the beach but it got saved by dark Ushiwakamaru. Her skin was darkened with some red lines on her chest like cracks.
"By any chance could we not fight Ushi?" I ask while mash readies herself in front of me
"That won't do. I'll bring your heads back to the black sea with me. Just your heads!" she said with a sinister smile on her face. Not gonna lie, it's a little sexy.
"I see, you've mutated or rather, darkened." Ishtar said as she seemed to inspect the corrupted Ushiwaka "That thing is the same as the Lahmu on the inside... Tiamat's offspring!"
"Exactly!" She says as she begins to unsheathe her blade "I've never felt better. I've never felt more like myself from before!" she laughs maniacally as she charges at blinding speeds right at me, only to be stopped by Mash.
"Master!" she said as if awaiting orders.
I look at the corrupted Ushiwaka and can't help but be sad. Sad that I knew this would happen and let it anyway.

FLASHBACK
Hessian was on the couch with Ushiwaka on his lap. He spent most of his time with her giving her headpats because she deserves all the headpats. His other arm was wrapped around her midsection as he rested his chin on her shoulder. He seemed to be in deep thought.
"Hey, Ushi" he started as he stopped his affectionate actions
"Yes, Hessian-dono?" she responded being brought out of her bliss
"Do you trust me?" he asked
"That's an odd question, but indeed I do Hessian-dono. If you are to consider me as a friend, then it is only natural that I consider you as my friend as well." she responded easily
"Even if you know that I'll end up abandoning you to a horrible fate in the future?" he tightened his hold a bit
The female servant was silent for a moment. time ticked by quietly as the air seemed to still.
"Even then." she responded "I have been fighting my entire life." she begins
"It was a feeling of wanting to be of assistance to someone, wanting to help others. However such logic was never understood by others." Her smile was a little sad "That's why, I'm happy that you understood me so well. Even if it's because you know of another me."
"I don't want to see someone other than myself crying. If possible I want to stop those tears." Hessian quoted as he looked back on his memories of another Master. "While I understand it, I'm ashamed i can't seem to be like you."
"In any case, I have something for you that I hope you would accept." he says as the young magician took out a page that looked like any other page from a book.
"I'd be honored to, Hessian-dono" she smiled as she accepted
"By the way, since Mash is gone for the night. Wanna do it?" he asked as he buried his face in her neck
The female samurai blushed but didn't deny his advance

Hessian POV
Man that was a fun night. I think to myself as I look at the corrupted Ushiwaka being blocked by Mash.
"Well it was fun, Ushi." I give her a sad smile as I exerted some mana. "C ya later"
The corrupted samurai seemed confused for a moment until she was forced back by something. She looked down at her chest to see a glowing page sticking out of it.
"Wha?" Her body disintegrated into dust soon afterwards. Not even the page was left behind.
"Senpai, what did you do?" Mash asked confused.
"Focus on getting the grail back." I say preparing to continue
"Oh no. That wouldn't do at all" I turn towards the voice and am unsurprised.
"You're going to die here." Another corrupted Ushiwakamaru says as she begins to slowly walk forward and multiply.
"She restored? No."
"That was nothing like restoration or regeneration."
"Die, die like the swarming ants you are." She speaks as she continues to multiply "Those who survive on the battlefield... Those who forget it... Those who avoid it! Those.... who abandoned me." She finishes as she looks straight towards me "Just like you, Hessian" It's a little creepy being stared at by this many clones.
"Multiple enemy servants!"
"She's multiplying, just like the Lahmu" I hear Ishtar say "She probably won't die."
"Everything about her multiplies starting with her spirit origin." I say as I observe "You're all Ushiwakamaru, correct?"
"Who knows" She cutely tilted her head "I multiply by borrowing just a tiny fraction of mother's power. You lot cannot kill me, nor can you stop Mother unless you destroy the entire sea!"
"Good to know." I reply with a smile "But you multiplying doesn't change much" right after my words, each corrupted Ushiwakamaru had a page pierced through their chest from within.
"Everything about you multiplies, that includes the page I implanted in the original Ushi." I say as I watch them all disappear.
"Senpai, that was amazing!"
"Nice work, Hessian!"
"Alright, we need to contact king Gilgamesh. I'm pretty sure Tiamat has the grail right now." I sigh as we head towards the nearest building

"You're late! Chaldeans." the king yelled as a blue hologram
Within the basement of the coastal tower. The group gathered around a holographic Gilgamesh.
"Oh? Magecraft for remote conversations?" Ishtar asks as she inspects the device
"I made a communication system for this very moment." the king informed "As I made it in a rush, overlook the fact that it may be similar to something else." Hessian wasn't sure of the reference
"Eridu is gone. So is Siduri..." Hessian reported with a sigh
"No matter now."
"U-Um, how is Uruk doing?" Mash asked
"We are repelling the Lahmu from all directions using 360 large bows. Hessian's barrier is also still active." He spoke as he described the situation "We should be able to hold off the Lahmu for another 4 hours. That is the amount of time it will take for them to break the barrier."
"But enough about that, it is time to gather our knowledge and figure out how to defeat Tiamat!" he declared as the group began to discuss and share information about Tiamat and her authorities.
"Senpai, what are you doing?" The demi-servant asked her master as he was playing on his phone
"Well, I swiped right for Tiamat using Interdimensional Tinder." He said "AH SHE MESSAGED ME BACK!"
"Eh?"
"Waow she looks nice in that bikini, yes!" Quetzalcoatl commented
"Wait, did you say Tiamat!? As in the god that's trying to kill us right now!?" Ishtar exclaimed as she went over to look
"Hmm, since were low on options. Hessian! Attempt to woo her and stop her assault on Uruk!" the king ordered
"We got a date set in the underworld." Hessian fist pumped as he changed to more fancy clothes
"WAIT A MINUTE!" everyone turned to the Venus Goddess who's hair and clothes shifted to Ereshkigal "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU HAVE A DATE WITH TIAMAT!? WHAT ABOUT US!?"
The Death Goddess raised Hessian by the collar with godly strength. "ARE YOU CHEATING ON ME!?" her voice began to distort horrifically
"B-BUT ERESH! LOOK AT HER! I'VE NEVER FUCKED A PRIMORDIAL MILF!" Hessian cried out in tears
"YOU'VE NEVER FUCKED ME YOU BASTARD!" she roared as she continued to manhandle him.
"Hmm, good point." Hessian spoke with crossed arms as he nodded his head "How do you feel about threesomes?" he asked with complete seriousness.
The room seemed to turn deathly cold as the rest of the group correctly chose to silently make their way out to allow the couple settle their 'talk'.
