Chapter 1,497 Unfinished business

"Father......"

"...Don't call me father."

Enkidu looked at Galatulu in front of him and felt a little pain in his head.

Compared to the Human Shield, the Key of Heaven and the Lock of Heaven, at least from the perspective of ideological structure, can be said to be a killing blow.

Enkidu and Shamhat got the basic human heart after getting along with each other for a while, and then came to Uruk with Ananu, and gradually improved during the subsequent interactions with humans, and finally succeeded in using weapons to

Identity acquires human emotions and self.

And the human shields Kurgalu and Galatulu...

They have been living with humans for decades as humans, but they still haven't truly gained that emotion and heart.

This shortcoming may continue to accompany them.

but......

Enkidu looked at Kurgalu and Galatulu with a slightly complicated look in his eyes.

So, his choice is...

"Ananu, it's your turn."

Ananu:???

"No, why should I do it?"

Ananu looked at the helpless Kurgalu and Galatulu in front of him with a blank expression, and questioned his brother or sister's soul.

"Of the two of us, you are the more outgoing one." Enkidu's voice contained a gentle smile, which made people feel like spring breeze. "So, it is right for you to solve this problem."

"...No, this?" Ananu still felt a little...

"I'm going to have a chat with Ereshkigal. You can hold on first." Enkidu said nothing.

Ananu was left alone, staring at Kurgalu and Galatulu.

"Father, can you answer our questions?"

Kurgalu repeated the question Galatudu asked Enkidu just now.

"...Speak nicely and don't call me father."

Ananu rubbed the center of his eyebrows, with helplessness in his voice.

"What did you just ask?"

Kurgalu and Galatulu looked at each other.

"We are wondering why we exist here." Kurgalu asked honestly.

"Did you create us just for a fight?"

"There are too many things that we cannot understand or figure out. We don't even know whether we should die."

Kurgalu and Galatulu said alternately, facing their creator.

Ananu fell silent.

Like Enkidu, he looked at the Human Shield with complicated eyes.

This is one of the messes they left behind in Uruk. Although Nanshe and Gilgamesh were also involved,...

In the final analysis, he and Enkidu have more responsibilities.

The Bull of Heaven is approaching. They are the dependents of Ishtar. In order to avoid accidents, their pasts were directly erased. However, they were not given a new life. Instead, they were allowed to live in Uruk for decades as half-finished products.

Year.

Incomprehensible things accumulate over time, and incomprehensible thoughts pile up over time, so that now, I can't even understand why I exist in this world, and I come to Ananu and Enkidu for help.

But Ananu and Enkidu could not answer them either.

Kurgalu and Galatulu have been wondering for too long, and their questions have accumulated to the point where Ananu and Enkidu cannot answer them.

However, there are still things that can be done.

That is......

"Come here and let me hug you."

Ananu opened his arms to Kurgalu and Galatulu.

What he wants is, at least, to complete what has not been done before.

Questions that cannot be answered by parents or elders can only be found by oneself. However, Kurgalu and Galatulu do not have the conditions to find answers. What Ananu has to do now is to complete this condition for them.

.

Kurgalu and Galatulu were a little confused, but they still followed Ananu's instructions and hugged Ananu.

Then, he closed his eyes and sunk his thoughts into the depths

...

Ananu opened his eyes.

What kind of world is the world of the soul?

Ananu and Enkidu have the same mind.

Their hearts were originally extremely empty and void, with only chains and keys existing.

Then, there are many flowers on the chain and key.

Then, the chains and keys took on more concrete images.

In the end, the hearts of Ananu and Enkidu had everything.

And what about the minds of Kurgalu and Galatulu?

Just like the original Ananuenkidu, it was nothingness.

Oh no, it's not a void, but filled with doubts and incomprehensions.

Ananu could not even find the concrete Kurgalu and Galatulu among these abstract questions.

After spending a lot of effort and finally finding them, Ananu's approach was...

A light touch.

Just touching is enough.

Just like how Shamhat gently touched Enkidu.

After touching it, Ananu left quietly.

When they opened their eyes again, Kurgalu and Galatulu had fallen into a deep sleep.

This is a transformation for them, but they just don’t know...

"Is it...right or wrong to finish you off at this time?"

Ananu sighed.

He knew why Enkidu asked him to handle the matter of Kurgalu and Galatulu.

Enkidu was not sure whether the choice he made would be the right one or a failure, so he chose to let Ananu solve the problem. After all, they were actually one person.

"Forget it, let's do it." Shaking his head, Ananu chose not to dwell on this matter any further.

Now that the choice has been made, don't have any regrets.

Wait a minute and let Siduli arrange for someone to take them to rest.

...

"I feel like... Uruk hasn't changed much at all - wait, this feeling of magic!?"

Ishtar drove Ma Anna, flying high in the sky, looking at the city he built from a distance, with nostalgia in his eyes, and a proud smile appeared on his face involuntarily.

Although some very unpleasant things happened, Ishtar never regretted establishing Uruk. She was always proud of her city.

but--

What's going on with the magic!?

"You never told me that that bastard Ananu was also summoned!"

She grabbed Nan She's neck with a look of horror on her face.

Although Gilgamesh is more annoying, in terms of psychological shadow...

Ishtar was once in the sky and was chased by Ananu for more than an hour...

Even though he would definitely no longer be an enemy, Ishtar still felt that Ananu... was a completely terrifying weapon.

"You didn't even ask me!"

After breaking free from Ishtar's ruthless iron hand, Nanshe looked at Ishtar in a funny way.
