 ============================================================

After a few minutes of walking everyone arrived at a castle that is made from a dark and shiny material that is quite similar to the big gate earlier. A grand ziggurat-like castle with multiple rectangular, tiered layers forming a step-pyramid. Constructed from stone or mudbrick, it features broad ramps and staircases leading to higher levels. Surrounding the castle are numerous smaller buildings in an orderly, dense arrangement. The entire scene is bathed in warm, golden lanterns, highlighting the ancient and majestic architecture.

And at the entrance there stood a young woman with aqua eyes and long wavy blonde hair in a two-side-up hairstyle, which consists of part of her being made into twin tails tied with black ribbons, while the majority hangs loose. She is dressed in an elaborate, dark-colored outfit that exudes a mix of elegance and power. She wears a short, dark purple dress with intricate golden designs and embellishments. Over her shoulders is a rich, red cape with a golden interior, trimmed with ornate patterns.

Her legs are clad asymmetrically, with one leg in a thigh-high black stocking adorned with gold markings, and the other leg bare, revealing a golden anklet and matching sandals. She also has golden wristbands and a belt that cinches her waist. On her head there is black crown-like headpiece signifying her identity as the ruler of this underworld.

"Ho ho ho rejoice mortals you are in the presence of the great queen of the underworld Ereshkigal herself. " the girl who is also known as Ereshkigal said as she did the classical Ojou sama laugh.

While Tannin and Issei were stunned at this, the rest of the party had an indifferent expression. They all had a fair share of experience with her unusual talking style. So they were used to it.

" Hey Ere how are you doing ? " Roxanne said cheerfully as she went to hug her.

" oh hey Roxanne no I mean Hello Roxanne I have been very well thank you for asking " Ereshkigal who almost broke character stopped her mid sentence and resumed in her Ojou sama tone.

As though not noticing her break in character Roxanne continued, "hey Ere I brought you a potential buyer who is interested in your Devil fruit farm. "

"Wait really that's great cough cough what I mean is that is very nice of you Roxanne " Ereshkigal once again broke character again due to her excitement.

"Yes, from now on you don't have to worry about what to do with your devil fruit stock. " Roxanne said with a smile.

Frankly speaking, the devil fruit is something she made with the help of Amy. It was about 4 or 5 years since she met Ereshkigal after she came to this underworld to solidify her position as the queen.

When Roxanne first arrived at this place the whole underworld was a barren wasteland and had barely any souls or even creatures. In this whole underworld Ereshkigal was all alone. This is why when Roxanne first arrived here Ereshkigal treated her with excitement.

Gradually both of them became friends. When Roxanne found Ereshkigal's wish was to do gardening Roxanne did a thorough research in the whole world to find any good plants she could plant.

Unfortunately no matter what plant she brought all of it would die in a matter of seconds due to the curse that is cast on the land. So Roxanne had no choice but to use one of her birthday wishes to ask Amy for a plant that would be suitable for this environment.

Amy agreed and created a plant that would need a high amount of curse souls to be planted. And due to needing to maintain the balance this plant would produce a fruit that would help species such as dragons refine their bloodline a little bit.

Since this fruit is gifted by Roxanne who is a devil Ereshkigal decided to name this plant Devil's tree and the fruit Devil fruit. The fruit that would allure anyone with powerful bloodlines like a devil's whisper.

After Roxanne gave Ereshkigal the plant she created five weapons that would protect her and this underworld. Yes like what Tannin guesses it was her who created Arceus and rest. Since her grandfather could avatar like sacred gears why couldn't she make it too.

After all, her skill is weapon creation. The scope of what defines weapons is the user's imagination. And in the Pokemon world numerous terrorist groups consider these Pokemon god's as weapons so why couldn't she do it too.

After borrowing a few souls from Ereshkigal Roxanne used them as materials and made the avatars taking Pokomen Gods as references. She could proudly say that even her grandfather couldn't do a great job as her.

These five had powers corresponding to their references making them a powerful force to recon with. Since Roxanne knew that when the Devil fruit comes to market a huge commotion would happen and Ereshkigal may be in danger. So she didn't think it was overkill to make the Pokemon Gods.

What's more these five would keep Ereshkigal company so she would never be lonely again. This was also the main reason why she infused five souls into them. Ereshkigal needs someone to keep her company.

"Anyway, Ere let me introduce your customer. This is Tannin, he is a former Dragon King and is the ruler of the Dragon Mountain. " Roxanne said as she came out from her reminiscing.

"It is a pleasure to meet you Goddess Ereshkigal " Tannin said as he gave a small bow in greeting. He heard about Ereshkigal. She is a person from one of the ancient pantheons.

"It's a pleasure to meet you too " Ereshkigal gave a nod as a greeting. Although she is from a fallen pantheon she had her own pride. Furthermore she couldn't show any weakness when they were about to discuss a business transaction.

"And next to him is my childhood friend issei. He is here because I wanted to train him a little. " Roxanne said as she introduced Issei.

"It's nice to meet yo.. Wait Roxanne you didn't tell me you came to train me "issei was about to offer a greeting when he heard something he couldn't ignore. When was it decided that Roxanne would train him? He thought she was here to hang out with him like the usual.

" didn't I tell you about it. The reason I brought you here is to train you in some martial arts. You clearly lacked some technique to land a decisive blow to tannin. " Roxanne said as she remembered Issei's fight with Tannin.

All Issei did was punch and kick Tannin. There was no technique. If he had learned martial arts then he may be able to deliver a heavy blow to Tannin.
