Tonight, King Gilgamesh brought out fine wine and food and entertained everyone else, even Adkart, Kurgalu, Galatulu, and Gilgamesh who were still stationed on the Warcraft front.
Shidu ordered the guards to bring them a glass of beer and bread filled with mutton one by one.
Gilgamesh's meaning is obvious.
Eat, drink, and rest well. Tomorrow... we might face the final battle.
Tomorrow Tiamat will arrive on the Warcraft front, and the night after tomorrow, she will... come to Uruk.
Holding off Tiamat on the Warcraft front for as long as possible is all that's left of the final order.
Early the next morning, Ananu found everyone except Ishtar.
"The Warcraft Front... is our last line of defense. If Tiamat crosses the Warcraft Front, the only thing standing in front of her will be the wall of Uruk."
Ananu looked up at the divine authority seal on the city wall and said.
"I'll go with you too."
Zijuan and Zaoji stood beside Liao Ye, with an unquestionable tone in her voice.
"Okay." Ananu did not refuse, but just looked at her one more time.
"I'll take you to the Warcraft front."
Wow——
The Key of Heaven appeared and instantly turned into various fragments, and then formed the shape of a boat. Ananu raised his chin and motioned for everyone to get on.
"Is it a ship... This reminds me of the Irma." Lemony touched the side of the ship with a nostalgic tone.
"Don't block the road." Eurielle kicked Lemony's butt and said somewhat unhappily.
Although the guy who kidnapped her eldest sister was a rare hero,...
No matter what, he has taken away his sister, so a little kick in his ass is nothing, right?
Lemony rubbed his butt and sat in the corner of the boat, but his body was too big and his presence was very strong.
Anna's attention was not on Lemony and her sister.
She has made up her mind, so...
"Sit tight, we're leaving."
Everyone sat firmly on the boat. Ananu's voice was low, and then he activated his magic power and flew up with the entire ship composed of the Sky Key, flying towards the Warcraft battle line.
...
Uruk Palace, front hall.
There were only three people left in the front hall.
The king of Uruk, the auxiliary of Uruk, and the patron saint of Uruk.
Most of the remaining ministers have followed the retreat team arranged by Gilgamesh. There are still some young and strong ones who have not left, and are now carrying out intense defense work in the city of Uruk.
Those who are still in Uruk are basically those who have fighting ability, and some are too old to walk.
They want to witness with their own eyes the end of the city they have lived in for decades - and of course, they hope to see this fascinating city still standing despite the huge disaster.
"Has everyone left already?"
Gilgamesh sat on his throne and asked Siduri.
"Yes, King." Siduli replied to her King with a smile as usual, "Under the leadership of Lord Ananu, the only servants still stationed in Uruk should be Yi.
Lord Shtar."
"...You say that, why do you feel like I'm trying to catch a fish?" Ishtar, who was hanging on the ceiling with his legs dangling, rolled his eyes.
"I'm sorry, Lord Ishtar." Siduli apologized very insincerely with a smile on her face.
"Well... I really can't do anything about you." Ishtar looked at Siduri's smiling face and shook her head helplessly.
She could feel to some extent that Siduli was actually "relying on favor and being arrogant".
This kind of behavior happens to a person like Siduli who is extremely serious, organized and serious about everything. It is really... quite strange.
No, maybe Siduli did this... on purpose.
Uruk is about to be destroyed. Maybe it’s time to experience some things that I have never experienced before, such as acting coquettishly to my god... After all, Ishtar likes it anyway.
Siduri's, the thing that makes her most regretful about this little girl is that she has persisted with this guy Gilgamesh for decades.
But now it seems... not bad.
Ishtar looked at Gilgamesh in trance.
"What's wrong? Are you looking at me all the time?" Gilgamesh felt a little hairy when Ishtar looked at him, and asked with a frown.
The look in Ishtar's eyes reminded him of some bad memories.
"What? Can't I see my nephew?" Ishtar glared at Gilgamesh.
Gilgamesh's face turned even darker, as some memories were too painful to look back on.
He almost forgot that his biological mother, the irresponsible goddess Ninsong, had a very good relationship with Ishtar.
"So the things you did during your lifetime don't feel weird to you?" Gilgamesh's tone was rather gritty.
He was referring to the incident where Ishtar confessed to him.
"I forgot." Ishtar chose to play dumb to avoid embarrassment. He covered his ears, shook his head, and swayed in the sky. Gilgamesh looked annoyed.
"...So what are you going to do? If you really don't want to stay here with me, you can go to the Warcraft front."
"There is a lack of combat capability over there."
"It still doesn't work. It's better for me to stay in Uruk now." Ishtar fell on the ground and walked to the door of the front hall. He looked at Uruk with a hint of sadness in his voice.
.
"After all, you are not the only one who cares about this city."
"Uruk was founded by me."
Gilgamesh was silent for a moment when faced with what Ishtar said.
"Really? Then let's take a closer look."
He did not deny it. After all, this was a fact. Ishtar, the goddess of Venus, was the mother of the city of Uruk.
Ishtar just looked at it for a while without saying anything.
Then, he suddenly turned his head, looked at Gilgamesh with a smile on his face, and said:
"I admit it, you are a very good king."
"I'm leaving to take a look at the Warcraft front. Before I finally arrive, I ask you to guard this proud city for everyone for a while."
After finishing speaking, Ishtar did not pause, and flew up in Ma Anna, flying away into the distance.
A smiling Siduri and a somewhat astonished Gilgamesh were left behind.
Watching Ishtar's back flying away, Gilgamesh suddenly wanted to laugh.
"What a stupid goddess. She didn't say such words until now."
"This king does not need your recognition."
But the smile on his face clearly showed that he was actually quite happy.
