I Will Be the Son of Man

Merlin didn't know what to say, so he could only speak to Anna helplessly.

"Sorry, Anna, His Highness Hill didn't do it on purpose. Because he has not been in this posture for a long time, the remaining instincts are still affecting him, please forgive me!"

"Um......"

She responded in a low voice, but Anna didn't dare to look directly at Hill again.It should be said that she was suddenly at a loss for the most direct act of supplication that originated in nature.

However, she did this simply because the other party was her own kind, and she didn't have any distracting thoughts.

If someone else had said such words, the sickle in her hand would have been swung by then.

"But having said that, Your Highness Hill, why did you say that just now?"

"is it not OK?"

"It's not impossible in the sense, it's just...you've jumped too many steps, too direct."

After sorting out his wording, Merlin said tactfully.

"process?"

"Yes. Between human beings, there must be a process of getting along with each other. If your thoughts don't change, first of all, you must make Anna like you."

When it comes to this matter, the seasoned Merlin immediately regained his spirits.

Of course, what he didn't say is that among human beings, as long as you are good-looking enough, it is not impossible to be romantic overnight.

But he didn't dare to say this, for fear of being beaten by Gilgamesh.

"Hmm... human beings are so complicated, I don't understand..."

After thinking for a while, Hill finally shook his head, but immediately he approached Anna, tilting his head and asking.

"Anna, do you like me?"

"This......"

Looking at the pure white child who suddenly approached her, Anna subconsciously wanted to take a few steps back, but behind her was a tall fir tree, blocking her retreat.

Facing Hill's questioning, Anna felt a little tangled in her heart for a while.

If you hate it, because you know the nature of the other party, you don't have it.

But if you like it, it's not to that extent, it's just that you feel a little close because you are the same kind.

For a moment, in desperation, Anna could only turn to Merlin who had an inexplicable smile on his face from just now.

"Merlin!"

"Hahaha...Sorry, sorry, because Anna's reaction is so funny, I accidentally...sorry, sorry!"

Seeing Anna glaring at him fiercely, Merlin smiled and raised his hands in surrender, while persuading him.

"Okay, Your Highness Hill, if you press too hard, Anna will hate you."

"In the process of communication, it is also necessary to give the other party free space."

Although the dissuasion is dissuasive, the mentality of "not too big a problem" mixed in it is fully exposed.

"I'm not dating!"

Seeing that the pure white boy returned to his original position after hearing Merlin's words, and sat on a dead log and ate an apple, Anna heaved a sigh of relief.

At the same time, he showed a vicious expression towards Merlin and denied it.

"Really, who can say what will happen in the future..."

As if he didn't see the threat from Anna, Merlin said with a smile on his face.

Ignoring Merlin's teasing, Anna snorted coldly, held the sickle, and ran to rest at the foot of a fir tree far away from the two of them.

When Merlin saw this, he didn't say anything else. He just glanced at Hill and Anna meaningfully, and then sat back by the campfire in a happy mood, closing his eyes and taking a nap.

As for Hill, after seeing that both of them were resting, he ate the apple and lay down on the spot, his body curled up like a snake and like a baby, and fell asleep like that.

There was no conversation for a whole night, until the next day, when the sky was just getting bright, a faint mist lingered in the forest again.

As soon as Anna opened her eyes, she found a pair of golden snake eyes staring at her without blinking, which made her startled.

"you......"

"Merlin said that he will be leaving later, let me call you."

After seeing Anna open her eyes, Hill moved away from the other party, and said with a blank face.

"Yes, yes... When are we leaving?"

Standing up quickly, although she knew that the pure white boy in front of her was not malicious, Anna was still not good at getting in touch with him.

"In 15 minutes."

"Well, I see. Also, what's the matter..."

Seeing that the pure white boy still hadn't walked away, Anna couldn't help but ask under the pressure of the other party's direct gaze.

"Anna, would you like an apple?"

Handing the apple in front of Anna, Hill blinked.

"Um......"

After hesitating for a while, Anna finally took the apple.

Anyway, because there is no relationship with the servant contract, the spirit base is not stable yet, so it should be regarded as a supplement of magic power.

After taking a small bite, the sweet and sour taste that entered the mouth soon fell into the stomach along with the pulp, making Anna squint her eyes a little.

But soon, Anna noticed a smiling gaze looking at her.

She looked up, and found that it was indeed that old and unscrupulous Merlin who was smiling, mouthing "Come on" and making cheering movements.

This guy......

Angrily glaring at Merlin, Anna looked at the innocent child beside her, didn't say anything, but shook her head inwardly.

Just a simple guy, just ignore it...

With this in mind, Anna didn't repel Hill's compelling gaze any longer.

However, what she didn't expect was that because of her thinking, she would have an extra "little tail" after that...

Chapter 015: "Enkidu"

For the next few days, Merlin and the others searched for the tablet of destiny that Gilgamesh mentioned in the black cedar forest.

But unfortunately, after almost walking through most of the forest, I still couldn't find it.

"I can't help it. It seems that the Tablet of Destiny is not in this forest. Let's go back to Uruk and report this to King Gilgamesh, and then ask him if he has any other clues."

Merlin's face was a little helpless. In fact, even today, he roughly understood that the king probably remembered the wrong location.

In order to avoid wasting time, he decided to return first.

Of course, part of the important reason for this was that the apple he was carrying was gone.

To be honest, looking at the way Hill stared at him these days, Merlin felt more and more that he might become a backup ration if he stayed any longer, so it's better to go back first.

"If we start from this location now, we will be able to reach Uruk in at most two days with a little rush."

"It's not too late, let's go right away!"

Merlin's expression became a little more serious. Seeing that Anna and Hill had no objections, they immediately took action.

But of course Merlin could see that the reason for Anna's silence was that the other party was absent-minded. It should be said that she has always been so absent-minded in the past few days.

And the reason... is naturally because Hill has been following Anna during this time, always handing the apple to the other party from time to time, and watching the other party eat it.

This kind of childlike way of showing affection, although it seemed to Merlin that he wanted to snicker.

But I have to admit that it is precisely because the person who made this move was a child with a pure heart like Hill, that it represented the purest kindness.

And Anna really had nothing to do with Hill who was always following her.

Because Merlin and the others chose to walk through the forest alone when they went back, and there were not many monsters in the forest, even if they encountered them, they quietly avoided them this time.

Therefore, the speed of going back this time was much faster.

As the sun sets, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkles in the forest.

Hill also followed behind Anna step by step, and Merlin who led the team was at the forefront.

At this speed, we should be able to reach Uruk tomorrow.

After estimating the next itinerary, Merlin felt a little more relaxed, but soon, he heard a faint voice of conversation coming from a distance.

"Merlin, there are humans, two... and an unknown smell coming."

Suddenly, Hill took a few steps forward, walked to Merlin's side and spoke.

"Two humans and someone who doesn't know what it is..."

Merlin had no doubts about Hill's induction.

It should be said that in the past few days, thanks to the other party's excellent sensing ability, they have avoided the monsters foraging in the forest many times.

"Since there are humans, I think it's better for us to confirm."

After thinking for a while, Merlin made a decision, but Hill naturally didn't say anything.

As for Anna, although she hated humans, she didn't raise any objections.

So, the three of them quickly walked towards the direction of the conversation.And as the distance got closer, Merlin also heard the conversation on the other side clearly.

"We're going to a safe place soon, and it looks like we'll be able to reach Uruk before sunset."

"But Mr. Enkidu, Uruk is in the opposite direction."

"There is a pier by the river ahead, and there are still boats docked at the pier. As long as you get there, you can go down the river to Uruk."

Whoa, this is really...
