"Huh? It seems there's an unexpected guest on this land. How interesting."
As the two walked, a fragrant breeze wafted by, and pink petals merged together in front of them, gradually transforming into a handsome white-haired man.

The Butterfly (Absolute Demonic Front: Babylonia) : 4: Merlin's Surprise
Merlin was somewhat surprised, but his emotions stemmed from Xia Die, this unknown girl.
If Anna's appearance was expected, then the appearance of Xia Die was unexpected.
The other person possessed an aura unlike anyone else in this world. This person was not from this era, nor was they a Master of Chaldea.
But if you weren't a Master, how did you come to this era?
Moreover, he could sense an extremely terrifying aura emanating from Xia Die. Merlin's intuition told him that if he encountered her, something very dangerous might happen...
That was the aura of death.
The other party is neither human nor god.
It's important to understand that this is a singularity. Even King Gilgamesh possessed a unique quality, a mark of his era. However, this girl doesn't bear any such mark, which is quite intriguing.
They are neither native inhabitants of the singularity, nor are they among the Chaldea people...
"Excuse my boldness, but may I ask who you are, Miss, who is as beautiful as a butterfly? You... seem to be someone I don't know."
Merlin looked at Xia Die with a look of great interest.
"I am Xia Die, a golden descendant from the holy city of Ohma. My arrival in this world was purely accidental. You can consider me a traveler."
"The Golden Descendants of Ohm?"
Merlin fell into deep thought. It sounded like something out of mythology, but in Merlin's knowledge, there was no mythology about the holy city of Ohmma... and the Golden Descendants didn't sound like ordinary beings.
Xia Die did not intend to hide her origins. After briefly explaining her background, Merlin did not pursue the matter further.
The world is so big, it's normal for things to happen that even someone like me, a Grand Slam candidate, can't understand.
After all, it's enough to be able to confirm that Xia Die has no ill intentions towards the people of this world and is actually a good person.
As for the rest, there's no point in dwelling on it too much. The most urgent thing right now is to unite all forces that can be united.
The three men's conversation did not last long, only about ten minutes, before they reached a consensus to return to Uruk together and contribute to the war effort.
After Merlin's revelation, Anna no longer hid her identity and openly revealed her true identity: Medusa, the youngest of the Gorgon sisters.
This arrival was also accompanied by Gorgon, one of the three goddesses' alliances, to this era.
Her appearance seemed like destiny. As a half-god, she was the trump card to defeat Gorgon. However, Anna seemed to be somewhat resistant to this matter and refused to talk about it.
Seeing this, Merlin said no more. At least it was a good thing that the other party was happy to return to Uruk with him.
People's thoughts can be changed. After witnessing the splendor of humanity in this era, perhaps Anna's thoughts will change.
The original two-person team became a three-person team. With the strength of the three, they naturally left the forest quickly. Ahead was a city-state of Uruk.
However, it's uncertain whether anyone has survived in these cities now that monsters are rampant.
Just as she emerged from the forest, Xia Die looked up and saw Ishtar speeding across the distant sky.
"Oh, it's Ishtar. I didn't expect to see her here."
Merlin watched this scene, raising an eyebrow.
"She seemed to be looking for something; I had met her before."
Xia Die smiled knowingly and said.
What god would idly wander around all day? Besides, Ishtar's hurried manner doesn't seem like a simple stroll; she's flying while constantly observing the ground, as if she's searching for a lost wallet...
"You ran into her? This goddess is notoriously capricious, did she cause you any trouble?"
Merlin looked at Xia Die with some surprise.
"No, she's a very nice person, just a little reserved. After I presented the offerings, she left happily."
"Oh, that's a good choice. Although that goddess is capricious, for various reasons, she's somewhat different from the goddess of heaven in mythology. If you win her favor, perhaps she'll suddenly appear when you need help in the future..."
Listening to Xia Die's words, Merlin stroked his chin and nodded.
However, to be able to bribe that goddess, Miss Xia Die must be quite wealthy...
“I don’t have any expenses. After traveling on the land of Onphalus for a thousand years, I have some savings, though not much.”
Xia Die said with a smile, which surprised Merlin. Was she already a thousand years old?
Anna, standing to the side, also glanced at it. Although she knew that Xia Die was no ordinary person, a thousand-year-old being was rare after the Age of Gods.
At their speed, the three of them could return to Uruk very quickly. However, Xia Die did not do so. There were several cities along the way to Uruk. Taking this opportunity, Xia Die wanted to travel along the way and see if there were any survivors. If so, she would escort them to Uruk.
Soon, the three arrived at a city. However, like the city that Xia Die had encountered earlier, this city was deserted. Apart from the ruins and the remaining monsters tearing at human remains, there was no sign of life.
"It seems we're too late; the city has already fallen."
The city walls are riddled with huge holes, a testament to the desolation. These walls were originally an important means of defending against monsters, but they were violently breached by someone. Without the walls, the monsters could easily enter without any resistance.
Without defensive fortifications, the human body is still far inferior to countless magical beasts.
"No, there are survivors."
Xia Die shook her head and walked into the city.
As Xia Die arrived, all the magical beasts in the city reacted, their large mouths, emitting a foul stench and dripping with liquid, lunged at Xia Die.
However, the next moment, when they were within ten meters of Xia Die, they instantly stopped, as if they had fallen into hibernation.
"Is this ability hypnosis?"
Anna watched this scene with some surprise.
"No, I don't think so. It's just pure instinct. It sensed death, so it instinctively quieted down. This is getting more and more interesting..."
Merlin watched this scene with curiosity in his eyes. Many Servants could simply kill these magical beasts, but to have their mere aura instill fear in them was something else entirely...
This ability is something only gods in mythology who control death possess; ordinary Servants can't achieve this level...
Merlin's intuition told him that this beautiful girl named Xia Die might be the key to resolving this singularity.

There will be another chapter tonight~ Please give me your monthly tickets and recommendation votes, meow~
Xia Die (Absolute Demonic Front: Battlefront!): 5: Life is not as fragile as a butterfly's wing.
From the outside, it appears that there are no living humans left in this city.
However, Xia Die could sense that beneath those ruins lay the faint heartbeats of Qi Erling and Si Qi.
Those were survivors, but now the city is teeming with monsters, and they won't be able to hide for much longer.
"So? Have you found anything?"
Anna, standing to the side, watched in astonishment as the lion dogs Ulidim all perished after the butterfly touched it.
You should know that even his own Mystic Eyes only take effect after they are activated, but Xia Die's ability to grant life and death is activated at all times.
While theoretically it's a curse, from a mystical perspective, this ability is quite terrifying.
"Yes, I can sense it. There's a faint presence over there."
As Xia Die spoke, she pointed into the distance.
Over there, she sensed the breath of life; she was a survivor!
On this land teeming with magical beasts, survivors are already a rare sight. It's a mystery how these people have managed to survive until now without being discovered, given the incredibly sharp senses of these magical beasts.
The situation was urgent, and in this environment, survivors could be discovered at any moment. Without much thought, Xia Die quickened her pace.
Soon, after turning a corner, Xia Die saw a huge figure.
Its enormous body was taller than a house, and golden mane on its head moved with the wind, exuding a terrifying aura.
Clearly, this monster is much more powerful than the monsters we've seen before.
It can certainly be called an elite monster.

If ordinary human soldiers could handle those lion-hounds, then this giant lion was something that humans could not deal with at all; only a qualified servant or a powerful weapon could deal with it.
For people in this era, encountering such a creature in the wild would undoubtedly be a nightmare.
Now, it lies prone on the ground, its keen sense of smell detecting the scent of its prey. It uses its huge claws to dig through the ruins of the house, revealing the empty floor of the room inside.
However, after seeing this scene, it did not leave. Instead, it revealed a cruel expression and slammed its claws into the ground. The ground covered with animal hides was instantly torn apart by its claws, revealing the secret passage inside.
At the same time, screams came from inside the cave.
"Come on, monster! I'm not afraid of you!"
The thin body held a wooden stick, blocking the entrance to the hole, protecting the girl behind him who was hiding in the shadows, covering her mouth and nose, afraid to make a sound.
That is his sister.
Previously, their parents had used their own bodies to lure away the monsters, which is why the siblings have survived to this day.
Now, the time has come for him to face his destiny.
Before he came out, he told his sister not to come out under any circumstances. What he had to do was simple: attract the attention of the monsters, even if it was futile and they might just have a good meal.
He hoped that the scent of his blood would mask the smell on his sister, and that the enormous monster would not be interested in this dilapidated cave after devouring him.
Looking at the little guy in front of him, the giant lion's eyes were full of ferocity, and its blood-red mouth was wide open. The boy could even see the bits of flesh between its teeth.
However, even though he was terrified and his legs were paralyzed by the opponent's brutal aura, he still used all his strength to swing the wooden stick at the opponent.
However, even faster than the giant lion was the speed of the butterfly.
