Gilgamesh sat on his throne with a blank look on his face. Below him stood Siduri and Luslan. They were tired all day and were not let go. Siduri caught him and almost cried.
.
After all, like his sister Siduri, he was also an auxiliary officer, but he was thrown into the army by Gilgamesh after his promotion. He was the person who directly connected the army and the palace.
"So, where are Ananu and Enkidu?" Gilgamesh was a little unhappy.
They asked him to wait for them here at night, but it turned out that he had been sitting here alone like a fool for half an hour, and Ananu and Enki didn't even see a shadow.
"Don't be so anxious, Gil." Enkidu's gentle voice came from the corridor, "It's just that there are some things that Ananu and I need to discuss in advance before we arrive late."
"So what exactly are you going to tell me?"
Gilgamesh looked helpless.
Ananu and Enkidu looked at each other, walked up to the throne together, and stood in front of Gilgamesh.
The light in front of him was blocked by the two of them, and the corners of Gilgamesh's mouth twitched.
"...What are you planning to do?"
Ananu and Enki were silent for a moment, and then a golden ripple appeared around them at the same time.
"We hope you can accept this."
Next to Ananu, a small Key of Heaven emerged from the golden ripples, while next to Enkidu was a Lock of Heaven as thick as a thumb.
Gilgamesh held the trumpet's Key to Heaven and Lock of Heaven in his hands, feeling a little confused.
"You guys, what are you doing?"
He could feel the huge power coming from the Heaven's Lock and the Heaven's Key.
This is—the God-made anti-god weapon—
Although they are all small, Gilgamesh also knows that this is the crystallization of power. As long as he puts this key and this chain in his king's treasure house, he can use Ananu and Enkidu
Of course, there is no way to do such things as Ananu and Enkidu themselves.
"I'm going to the underworld." Ananu said it directly without delay.
When Gilgamesh heard Ananu's words, he was startled for a moment, and then his pupils suddenly shrank.
"To the underworld!?"
He immediately stood up and asked Ananu.
"You're going to the underworld - what do you want to do there!?"
"I have a reason to go." Ananu's voice was calm.
"you--"
Gilgamesh took a step forward and grabbed Ananu's shoulders with a ferocious expression on his face, with cold sweat already appearing on his face.
"You... do you have any reason why you must go? Tell me about it!"
Sighing, Ananu shook his head.
He had expected Gilgamesh's current attitude.
What does Gilgamesh lack?
As an aloof king, what Gilgamesh lacks is a companion and an understander.
Ananu and Enkidu are his understanders.
For Gilgamesh, having such a person in his life is precious and indispensable. He——
No matter what, I don't want to lose Ananu and Enkidu.
"Then just listen to what I say."
Ananu and Enkidu pushed Gilgamesh back to his seat together, and then began to narrate.
The attitude of the gods, the anger of the gods, the storm that will eventually hit, and the subsequent arrangements, everything, Ananu and Enkidu told Gilgamesh, and Sidhu under the throne.
Li and Lu Silan.
Siduli looked shocked and looked up at Ananu and Enkidu with wavering eyes, but she was too sensible to say anything. As for Luslan, he kept his head down with a bitter look on his face, but no one cared about him.
What is the performance?
"Just for this reason, you want to go to the underworld?"
Although he knew the cause and effect, Gilgamesh was still emotional.
He gave the throne's armrest a sharp hammer.
"Damn God—I will one day—"
"Jill."
Enkidu put his cold hand on Gilgamesh's face. The cool touch made Gilgamesh startled. He stopped talking involuntarily and regained his composure somewhat.
"We can't do it," Ananu said calmly.
After listening to Ananu's words, Gilgamesh couldn't help but take a deep breath, clenched his fists, and his nails were embedded in his flesh.
god......
Shaking his head to get rid of his obviously radical and unrealistic thoughts, Gilgamesh seemed to want to say something else.
"It's okay, Gil." Ananu interrupted Gil's thoughts in advance.
"I have already explained the stakes to you, so this time in the underworld, I have to go."
Ananu took a step back.
"...I understand."
Gilgamesh looked at Ananu who took a step back, feeling a little at a loss for a moment, but finally nodded.
In fact, Gilgamesh didn't need to nod at the beginning of this matter. Ananu was an independent individual after all. If he wanted to go, Gilgamesh couldn't stop him.
But Ananu and Gilgamesh are friends, close friends.
So Ananu told Gilgamesh, and Gilgamesh also chose to accept his best friend's choice in the midst of painful struggle and entanglement.
"...When do you plan to leave."
Holding his forehead, Gilgamesh couldn't help but feel a little weak.
This is the first time he has felt like this in so many years of sitting on this throne.
Why, as the king of Uruk, he couldn't even save his friends?
He couldn't even intervene in these steps.
"In a few days, at least let me make arrangements for the subsequent training." Ananu smiled, and then remembered something, "Ah, by the way, if we receive intelligence that there are monsters near Uruk.
, just arrange it for them."
"Now, as long as the scale of the monster is not particularly large, they can basically cope with it. At most, they will suffer some injuries."
"...I understand." After slowly exhaling a breath, Gilgamesh could only nod.
"Then, let's leave." Enkidu took Ananu's hand, and the two of them walked off the throne, said hello to Siduli and Luslan, and then left.
Gilgamesh slumped on the throne and did not stand up for a long time.
There was a trace of confusion and absence in his eyes.
Ananu, Enkidu, his only friend...
How dangerous is it to go to the underworld?
Enki doesn't have much water of life left, and it's unclear whether the water of life can be used on weapons.
What's more, Gilgamesh has no reason for Enki to use the Water of Life for Ananu.
