The monster did not move, but kept its attention on Shamhat at all times. Although Shamhat did not observe that the monster had eyes, he was very sure of it for some reason.
But since it was paying attention to me but didn't attack me, this proves that... it shouldn't be hostile to me, right?
After weighing for a long time, Shamhat finally plucked up the courage and chose to walk out from behind the tree trunk and stand in front of the green monster again.
The monster still didn't move, just observing her.
What is it observing? Is it really admiring my beauty as Wang said?
Thinking of this, Shamhat was a little shy, but then his expression froze.
Could it be that the method of "taming" that the king was talking about at that time was...
Yes? Absolutely, right? Otherwise, I wouldn’t have allowed myself, a goddess, to come.
Thinking of this, Shamhat looked stiff and the corners of his mouth were twitching. He raised his head and glanced at the green monster.
...No, no, no, absolutely not.
You belong to God, how can you...
All in all, you have to find other ways!
And when Shamhat and Enkidu were confronting, Ananu's side...
It came to a stream.
He also noticed some strange things.
What is that?
Ananu raised his attention and cast it into the distance, curiously observing the strange... creature by the river?
Huh? This feeling is...
"Um?"
The "thing" sitting by the river seemed to sense a sense of being spied on, and raised its head vigilantly, searching around.
"Huh? That's..."
She quickly found what was peering at her, but something was beyond her expectation.
What is that?
This strange woman sitting by the river had the same idea as Ananu.
From her perspective, a yellow, antlered, but generally weird thing was looking at her.
...Moreover, she felt... an unimaginable amount of magic power from this strange thing.
Ah, she remembers...
While this strange woman was thinking, Ananu had already walked out of the forest and soaked directly in the stream, making a big splash.
Strange woman:?
"Hey!" Her eyes widened, "What are you doing, you bastard!"
Ananu turned his head and seemed to glance at her.
"You scared all my fish away!"
The woman threw the stick in her hand and loudly scolded Ananu for her strange behavior.
Ananu:?
It can roughly understand the woman's language. After all, this goddess and Humbaba should speak the same language... But what is the fish she is talking about?
Ananu still didn't take this goddess to heart.
After it recognized that it was a goddess, it didn't care much.
It's a god, oh, what did you think it was?
"you--"
The goddess was furious when she saw Ananu's indifferent expression.
"How dare you look down on the gods even though they are mere creations of God——!"
"I, Nanshe, will tell you what cruelty is today!"
The goddess named Nanshe rolled up her sleeves...she had no sleeves.
All in all, the goddess jumped up, grabbed the water from the stream, condensed it into an extremely sharp water sword, and stabbed Ananu fiercely.
The sword struck Ananu and disappeared.
Nanshe was a little dazed and didn't quite understand what was happening.
Ananu didn't feel anything at all. Its body was scattered a little by the water, but it closed back up in an instant.
Nanshe launched a normal attack.
However, it has no effect on Ananu!
"No, it doesn't work!?"
Nanshe's eyes widened.
She moved forward, gathered another stream of water, and tried to chop Ananu twice.
It did leave a wound, and then the wound closed together.
Ananu didn't understand why the goddess wanted to chop up a pile of mud.
"Hey, that's really interesting. Can you come up? Come to the land over here."
Nanshe felt it was funny, touched Ananu's antlers, and said to Ananu.
On land? What are you doing on land?
With curiosity in mind, Ananu followed the goddess's words and came to the land.
"Hmm, is this a product made by Master Utu and favored by Father God? It's really interesting..."
Nanshe walked around Ananu, poking and poking.
She is the daughter of the water god Enki. Logically speaking, the sun god Utu should be a generation younger than her, but Utu is a powerful god, a core one among the Anunnaki gods, and one of the triple gods of the stars.
, with the relationship between her father Nanna, who is the moon god, and her sister Ishtar, who is the goddess of Venus, even if she is of higher seniority, she still calls Utu "sir."
Who made her just a weak spring goddess?
But she didn't really care about it.
She poked Ananu's soft body with her fingers and made a pit in Ananu's body.
Then the pit grew back instantly.
Ananu was getting a little tired of being poked and poked by the goddess.
It swung its body and bumped its butt against the goddess's body.
Bang!
The goddess was directly hit by the heavy force and flew out, but she still spun and flew out.
"Ahhhh——"
Well, she even shouted as she flew.
After knocking down several small trees, Nan She stopped and fell unconscious.
...What a weak god.
Ananu looked at Nan She who flew out and fainted, a little... speechless?
However, Nan She recovered very quickly. She woke up in the blink of an eye and shook her head to wake up.
She is the goddess of water springs, and she is responsible for some vitality duties. After all, her father is the water god Enki.
After she recovered, she looked at Ananu with a look full of vigilance.
This thing... is stronger than she imagined.
Not many gods have this kind of intensity, right? And for some reason, she can still feel a sense of...threat from Ananu.
A sense of threat to God.
Not only did she have some doubts, was it really okay to create such a thing?
Ananu didn't care so much. It continued walking leisurely. Gods were just common things to it. Even if Utu, who created it, appeared in front of it, it probably wouldn't care much.
That’s it.
Looking at Ananu walking away, Nanshe glanced at his broken fishing rod and the water flow, and felt like crying.
I just wanted to go out and catch fish, so why did I get involved in this...
...Forget it, what else can I do? I've already beaten the nest...
Nanshe picked up his broken fishing rod, repaired it a little, sighed, and sat back to his original position.
After catching the fish, go and settle the score with that bastard Utu created.
