But the huge presence of her divine power made it impossible for Ananu to ignore her existence - but paying attention to her was one thing, and whether to ignore her was another.
Gods are too commonplace for Ananu and Enkidu.
Although it is said that the location of the first activation was in the forest of Enlil, Annanu and Enkidu actually developed the ability to sense the outside world when they were Anunnaki.
And at that time, what appeared in their perception was——
Endless magic.
The gods of the seventh generation and later generations almost fill the entire Anunnaki divine realm.
Most of the gods are not much stronger than humans, and their authority is divided among the numerous gods.
However, Ananu and Enkidu have no idea about this aspect. They are still extremely simple at the current stage. They just want to complete the task, but this task is given by the gods.
Ananu didn't even think about Nanshe. It was walking in the cedar forest, feeling Enkidu's position and looking for Enkidu.
After Nanshe's nest became ineffective, she secretly followed Ananu.
She felt that she was quite hidden. After all, Ananu didn't even look back at her, right?
She was mainly curious about what this product of her father's favor was doing.
Didn’t Father God say that this was a means to “bring mankind back to the side of God”?
Why are you wandering around in the forest with this method?
In this way, Ananu kept walking, following the direction of his heart, and Nanshe followed behind.
Ananu thought she was a little strange and a little annoying.
This is the individual difference between Ananu and Enkidu.
Faced with Nanshe's tracking, Ananu finally found Nanshe out of the darkness a little unhappy.
This goddess has been following him all day and night, and he wants to drive her away so that he can quickly find Enkidu.
The situation on Enkidu's side was a little strange. Ananu, who was one with Enkidu, could feel that Enkidu's soul seemed to have undergone some unknown changes.
It makes it a little anxious, so...
"Ouch!"
Being found out by Ananu, Nanshe looked a little scared and subconsciously distanced herself from Ananu.
She was still very afraid of Ananu's magic power and the threat to divinity. She believed that if Ananu wanted to, it would be easy to beat her up with her huge magic power.
So did Lord Utu lose his mind and create such a thing?
Buzz——
Ananu didn't know how to release this warning, threatening, and vibrating sound.
"Ahem? What do you want to do?" Nanshe grabbed his fishing rod from somewhere and pointed at Ananu.
She seems to have little experience in confronting "beasts".
After all, you have to draw a weapon when facing a beast that warns you...
Buzz buzz——————!!!
Feeling Nan She's sudden increase in magic power, Ananu's vigilance was at its highest.
The magic power that made Nanshe tremble a little was suddenly released from Ananu's clay body, and the surrounding ground even trembled.
Nanshe swallowed her saliva - she could foresee that if she continued to stay here -
With this thought, something like ripples appeared under Nan She's feet, and with a swoosh, it got in and disappeared without a trace.
Nanshe's reaction in her perception disappeared, causing Ananu to lose the target of the magic power he was about to release completely, and he was stunned for a moment.
After being stunned for a while, Ananu sensed it again and found that Nanshe was really missing.
Although I don't know where that boring goddess has gone, but since she is no longer following me, let's forget it.
Taking back his magic power, Ananu continued on his way.
It still wants to find Enkidu.
In a stream in the distance, Nan She emerged from the water and wiped the sweat from her head.
Really, really fucking scary...
If that level of magic power were to hit me, I would probably go directly to the underworld.
Thinking of this, Nanshe swallowed.
Utu, is he mentally ill?
...
Between the tense situation between Ananu and Nanshe, the relationship between monsters and humans is actually very harmonious.
Now another day has passed, and under Shamhat's conscious or unconscious guidance, she and Enkidu have arrived at the edge of the cedar forest.
In front of the cedar forest is an endless wilderness.
Uruk is very far away from here, and it would take at least several days of walking to get there.
Standing on the edge of the cedar forest, Shamhat looked at the desolate wilderness and the unreachable Uruk, and suddenly felt a little...
Should I say it’s reluctance?
She raised her head and glanced at the green monster who had sat down next to her, with a rather complicated expression.
This is a simple and beautiful creature - at least Shamhat thinks so.
In the past few days, Shamhat has been almost entirely by Enkidu's side, living with Enkidu.
During the day, Enkidu would pick wild fruits for her to fill her stomach. At night, Enkidu's huge body could become her temporary nest to keep out the cold.
...Forget it, let's go back to the forest first.
Shaking his head, Shamhat temporarily gave up the idea of traveling through the wilderness to Uruk.
Because according to her opinion of her king, how would that king treat this monster...
I'm afraid this monster will become a decoration for King Gilgamesh and will be placed in a corner from now on.
But... is that really good?
Is that really okay?
Such a gentle beast, such a beautiful beast, to be killed by the king - is it really okay?
With this idea in mind, Shamhat and Enkidu returned to the cedar forest and wandered around.
During this journey, she was thinking and conflicting.
She was grateful to this monster who could provide her with food and shelter. Although they did not get along for a long time, Shamhat had infinite affection and sigh for this almost pure kindness.
But the order of her king, her cruel king, was to bring this simple beast back.
...what should I do?
Was it because of the goodwill he had just made that he violated the order of the terrifying king and left his goddess?
Or betray this simplicity and fulfill the king's order?
Shamhat couldn't understand.
As the sky grew dark, Shamhat continued to sit next to Enkidu with such complicated emotions.
"It would be great if you could tell me the answer..."
She looked at the green lines on Enkidu's body and sighed softly.
