The Might of the Goddess.

As the planet Venus continued moving towards Earth at high speeds, Ishtar laughed as she charged Light attacks to launch against the two Half Demons, yet was intercepted by Chaldea's Ishtar, who managed to nullify it.

"Flora, Ishtar, keep her busy, I'll stop Venus" - Marth said as he started to charge up with Magatsuchi.

"Be careful" -

"You need that advice more than I do, you're not the ones fighting against Ishtar" -

Flying high towards the stratosphere, Marth saw the figure of the planet approaching. It would hit Earth in less than a minute if it wasn't stopped.

"Not a bad trick for that bitch Ishtar to pull, I'll give her that" -

Crimson red flames surrounded the boy, igniting his body and giving way to fire wings on his back, like those of a phoenix. In his right hand, a small star core.

"Here it goes. Collapsing Star" -

The same attack was used against Ishtar, but not mixed with Dark magic this time. Instead, it was a concentrated fire mass meant to replicate the effect of the sun, including what would happen once it detonated.

The Collapsing Star collided with the planet Venus and not 3 seconds later, a huge explosion devastated the planet, a blast that illuminated Earth like a second sun, leaving nothing but rubble.

From Earth, everyone could see what had just happened, with Ishtar being enraged that her plan was foiled with such ease.

"That stupid Ahruman, he said that Half Demons were barely stronger than regular demons!" - she yelled, not being able to contain her anger - "Where did all this power come from!?" -

"You should know better than to trust Ahruman, although you won't get another change" - Flora said as she floated towards Ishtar - "Your extra Magatsuchi reserves are gone, meaning you're just another god for us to kill" -

"You think I'll allow myself to be killed by the likes of you!?" - she started to laugh maniacally - "Venus wasn't the only trick I had under my sleeve you know? I SUMMON YOU, MIGHTY GUGALANNA! TRAMPLE THE EARTH UNDER YOUR STEPS!" -

A few kilometers away from the site of the Diet Building, the earth started to crack, and the giant legs of the Bull of Heaven started to walk out of it. Such a beast that not even the gods could fully control, now obeyed Ishtar.

"Well… That sucks" - Flora said as she and Chaldea's Ishtar watched Gugalanna fully come out of the ground and begin walking towards the Diet Building, the ground trembling with every step - "Hey, better Ishtar, you said you wanted to deal with her yourself?"

"Eh? I mean, of course I want to, my image of a perfect Goddess can't be sullied by someone like her!" - Chaldea's Ishtar answered, a bit nervous.

"In that case, I'll leave her up to you, that giant Bull is mine" -

As lightning and many times faster, Flora flew pasa Ishtar in order to engage Gugalanna in battle. Just as she was about to attack her with Light magic, Chaldea's Ishtar distracted her by firing multiple bolts of energy towards her.

"Hey! Your fight's with me" -

"If that's what you desire, fine them" -

Ishtar closed the gap between her and Chaldea's Ishtar almost immediately, after which she grabbed her by the neck and shocked her with a powerful Electric discharge. Chaldea's Ishtar answered by attacking with a powerful magic arrow from Maanna, staggering her enemy and allowing her to kick her away and fly to the skies.

Many small magic spheres appeared around her and as she made a finger gun pose, all of them were fired at the same time towards Ishtar, but they didn't hurt her, instead they were nullified by her.

"What!?" -

"As expected, we share affinities. Light magic is nothing to me. Now turn to ashes and die!" -

Manipulating the electricity around them, Ishtar conjured a powerful thunderstorm that was a hell for Chaldea's Ishtar to try and dodge. As she did, she started to think of ways to handle this fight.

Her only options for damaging her were concentrated shots, which were slower and took more time to charge, a melee fight, which she wasn't that good at, or her Noble Phantasm, which would leave her open to attacks as it charged.

"You're a real pain in the ass aren't you!?" - she yelled as she flew, dodging the bolts of electricity, yet she couldn't dodge forever, and her luck failed her when one of them hit her in the back, stunning her and allowing Ishtar to get close once again.

"I could say the same thing" - holding Chaldea's Ishtar by the face, she started to charge another Electric blast, but became distracted for a second as she turned back to see how her Bull of Heaven was doing.

It wasn't advancing, rather, it was being pushed back. The combined efforts of Marth and Flora stopped the giant beast dead in its tracks, and were slowly forcing it back to the hole where it came.

Chaldea's Ishtar saw this as an opportunity to attack, her eyes changed from red to golden, and a giant portal opened above them.

"What?" -

Flying at maximum speed, Chaldea's Ishtar dragged Ishtar to the portal alongside her as it closed before throwing her away with all her strength.

"I've had enough of you! You're nothing more than a disgrace to my name, and as such I'll make you disappear! Perish! An Gal Ta Ki Gal Šè!" -

The Noble Phantasm was fired point black against Ishtar, being pushed alongside the blast until they hit ground just outside the Diet Building, creating a giant explosion that caught everyone's attention.

Chaldea's Ishtar slowly floated down to the ground. Surprisingly, she didn't feel tired after using her Noble Phantasm, she still had quite a bit of energy left.

She landed just outside the range of the explosion, surrounded by Gilgamesh, Ereshkigal and Enkidu.

"Is she dead?" - Eresh asked as they looked at the smoke.

"I hope so…" - Chaldea's Ishtar answered.

As they waited patiently, the sound of slow footsteps caught their attention, and a voice came out of the smoke.

"My shields could do nothing against that attack, must have been Almighty magic" - Ishtar said as she walked out the smoke. She was hurt, but still able to stand.

"How in the world… That was a fully charged An Gal Ta Ki Gal Šè… She shouldn't be able to stand!" -

"How fun, I didn't expect much from you. Even being another incarnation of me, your powers weren't anything impressive, probably because of your spiritual body. I guess, however, that also worked in your favor, being able to absorb the natural mana of this world, as well as the Magatsuchi" - she said, without erasing her smile off her face - "And it seems you brought friends. Ereshkigal, King Gilgamesh, and his loyal friend Enkidu" -

Hearing her say their names made them tremble, even if they didn't know why.

"Let me tell you a story of Enkidu and Gilgamesh from this world. When the War of Mythologies broke out, they were extended an offer of peace from my father, to ally themselves with our pantheon for the war. They rejected it, and sided with humanity. Even thousands of years later, their stupidity was as true as ever. They both were killed during the conflict. Although I'm glad, I'm also sad, I wished it could've been me, the one who ended their pathetic lives" -

Ishtar started to surround herself with a red aura, a symbol of her absorbing Magatsuchi.

"How lucky I am, that fate brought them back to me. Dreadful Gleam" -

Before they could react, she unleashed her powerful Electric magic, stunning all 4 of them as she walked towards them, an Electric attack in her right hand.

"I'll start with myself, then I'll move to the rest of you" - she said to the rest before turning her eyes to Chaldea's Ishtar - "Any final words?" -

Hurt and stunned by Dreadful Gleam, Chaldea's Ishtar could barely speak. Yet, one word came out of her mouth - "Master…" -

A round of Gandr was shot from behind Ishtar, hitting her in the back. Despite it being weak, she felt angry. How could anyone dare to try and kill her from behind?

She turned to meet the one that did it.

Ritsuka Fujimaru, holding his palm open and with a second shot prepared.

"Stay away from them" - he said before attacking again.

This time, Ishtar dodged before letting out a small laugh - "A human has the gall to strike me not once, but twice? How amusing. I've changed my mind, perhaps I'll start with you first" -

Despite the threat, he didn't move a single step, instead fired 5 more rounds in quick succession, all of them blocked by Ishtar without even trying.

"Pitiful" -

Just as she was going to go for the kill however, chains of hellfire rose from the ground and grabbed her arms and legs.

"I commend the bravery, but that was a stupid move Fujimaru" - Marth said as he and Flora descended to face Ishtar.

"Gugalanna is gone, we forced him back underground and sealed him, good luck trying to free him again" - Flora said with a laugh - "You've caused a lot of trouble for the Council, you and your sister Ereshkigal" -

Not wanting to delay it further, she created a blade of Dark magic in her left hand, and went to cut off her head, but Ishtar's time wasn't this one. In a flash of light, she escaped, avoiding Flora's attack by less than an inch.

"I knew she would do that" - the girl said as the blade disappeared - "Those Magatsuchi reserves were way out of the regular, that power reminded me of Zeus and Shiva" -

"She'll take time to get back up, time we won't waste ourselves. She'll be back sooner or later, and we'll be ready" -

"I'll inform Vulpeen and Goldie to start tracking her down, and call the rest of the Half Demons back, we need as much defense as we can get" - with that, she left.

The rest of Chaldea came to see what had happened, as Ishtar's demon army disappeared from one moment to another. As they arrived, Marth walked towards Ritsuka.

"That little stunt you did was pretty stupid, you could've gotten yourself killed" -

"I couldn't let her hurt my Servants. I had to help" - he answered.

Marth simply laughed at this - "I will admit, doing something like that takes a lot of guts. Maybe you have a future in the Council after all" -

Ritsuka answered with a smile.

"Get some rest Ritsuka, we'll talk later"

With that, he left, and Ritsuka walked to the Servants being healed by Medea Lily and Asclepius.

"Never… Do that… Again" - Ishtar said. Ritsuka just smiled.

"When it comes to your safety, I can't make any promises" -
