Chapter 1,406 Im afraid Im going to become an imbecile
Under the bright moonlight, the king of Uruk rejected the love of the goddess of Uruk.
Ishtar didn't care about Gilgamesh's disrespect towards her. Instead, she smiled, hooked her loose hair with her little finger, and pushed it behind her ears. Her face was not filled with desire.
, on the contrary, it is much more beautiful.
"Is this what your answer is? Well, I had expected it."
Ishtar smiled and turned around.
"I hope you will not regret what you have done, Gilgamesh." Ishtar's eyes did not focus on Gilgamesh, and his voice was calm, "What you rejected was the kindness of the gods."
After saying that, she boarded the Ma Anna and wanted to fly away.
"Stop for me, my king."
However, at this moment, Gilgamesh suddenly called out, causing Ishtar to stop.
The moment Gilgamesh called, Ishtar's body trembled slightly and unnoticeably, and then she turned her head.
"What, are you going to promise me?"
A smile appeared on her face involuntarily.
She was even thinking about how to reject Gilgamesh later.
But what Gilgamesh said next shocked her.
"You repaired my palace for me." Gilgamesh's eyes were filled with obvious sullenness.
I finished my work and was sitting in the front hall to rest for a while, but suddenly something valuable fell from the sky.
After Guiwu talked like crazy, he tried to run away, leaving behind a smashed ruin.
——Do you fucking think that I, Gilgamesh, am made of clay?
Ishtar didn't expect Gilgamesh to say this at all, and was stunned for a moment, as if it was a bit incredible.
"Isn't it just a stone house? Don't you know how to repair it yourself? There are so many people in Urukri, why don't you ask them to repair it?"
Gilgamesh took a deep breath and clenched his fists.
"This is not a stone house, this is the king's front hall." He lowered his head, the blood vessels on his forehead bulged, and his voice contained a hint of anger that could not be ignored, "This is where the king and his ministers handle government affairs and manage the city.
,and--"
"Leaving aside this point, was it my king who damaged the front hall? Or was it his people who damaged it?"
The gap between man and God is clearly visible at this moment.
In Ishtar's eyes, even Gilgamesh's palace was still an ordinary house. After she smashed the house to pieces, she could leave in an ordinary way.
But in Gilgamesh's eyes, this is the central administrative place of Uruk. Among the many places that cannot be lost, the most important place cannot be lost, and it is his home.
Ishtar frowned, as if he wanted to say something else, but after taking a glance at Gilgamesh's state, he smacked his mouth, gritted his teeth, raised his hand, and used his divine power to control these things.
Stone.
Although she does not have the power of rocks or mountains, just repairing a house or something is still very simple for a god like her who has participated in the establishment of civilization.
After repairing the front hall, Ishtar boarded Lema Anna without saying a single word to Gilgamesh, and disappeared into Gilgamesh's career in an instant.
A brief reunion was quite unpleasant for both of them.
"Jill?"
As soon as Ishtar left, Gilgamesh spotted Enkidu's head poking out from the corridor, and with him was Ananu.
Gilgamesh felt better.
"That feeling just now, Ishtar is back?"
There was still a little beer foam on the corner of Ananu's mouth, and it could be seen that he was eating just now.
Siduli also followed behind the two of them, with a worried look on her face.
In fact, she should be in a neutral position, standing between the king and the gods, just like her identity.
She is the auxiliary and the high priest.
The king's assistant, God's high priest.
In fact, both Gilgamesh and Ishtar are quite satisfied with her. Gilgamesh always regards her as his confidant and one of the most important people around him, and Ishtar
Shitar, that heartless woman even said bluntly, "This child is the most outstanding and satisfying one among all the previous high priests." This shows how powerful Siduri is.
but--
From Siduri's point of view, she is obviously more inclined to King Gilgamesh, which also makes Ishtar, who likes her, quite criticized.
"I don't know what it means for you to support this indifferent king like this." The goddess once said.
To this, Siduli just responded with a smile and did not say anything. She just silently used her actual actions to prove to everyone and God that supporting this king was useful.
The prosperous Uruk is the best proof.
The people accepted this fact, and when they praised Gilgamesh, Ananu and Enkidu, they would not forget this conscientious assistant officer.
But God...
God’s eyes have never rested on human beings, so how could he notice whether all of this is meaningful?
This is why Siduri prefers to stand by Gilgamesh's side.
"Ah, I'm back."
Facing the surprise and confusion of the three people, Gilgamesh nodded, put his hands on his head, and gently rubbed his temples twice.
"Now he's gone again."
Ananu frowned.
Wiping the beer foam from the corner of his mouth, Ananu walked to Gilgamesh's side.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I agree? Then it would be easier to just kill me."
Although he did have the idea of having a child to pass on the throne, it didn't matter who the child's mother was, except that it couldn't be Ishtar.
Absolutely not.
Originally, my child would definitely be inferior to me, but if Ishtar interferes with it again, I am afraid that he will become an imbecile in an instant, and he will not even be able to ask God Enki for reimbursement!
"What about her reaction? Was she angry?"
Ananu's eyes became serious.
Ishtar's attitude is still very critical, facing Gilgamesh's rejection.
"She seems to have expected this king to reject her." Gilgamesh was lying on his throne, his voice filled with deep exhaustion.
Ananu and Enki were both puzzled.
Not angry?
"But when I asked her to repair the damage she had done, she seemed angry."
