The whole world is coveting the king's treasure

Enkidu and Gilgamesh head towards the forest.

Along the way, they encountered several villages, which were much dilapidated compared to the ones they encountered before. It is said that because of the chaos of the monster Humbaba, they suffered from hunger and cold.

Hearing that Gilgamesh was going to hunt down that monster, all the villagers in the village showed hopeful smiles for a moment, and looked at Gilgamesh with gratitude in their eyes.

Therefore, these villages are the only villages that donate their treasures directly to Gilgamesh without much effort. They only ask the king to have mercy on them and destroy the monsters. These extraneous things are nothing to worry about.

Gilgamesh accepted the offerings from the crowd without saying anything, but his determination to destroy Humbaba could be seen from his resolute brows.

At this time, Enkidu still couldn't understand whether Gilgamesh wanted to make meritorious deeds as he wanted, or whether he really wanted to restore peace for the country and the people.

He still doesn't have the mind to think about extra things. As the journey continues, he has a premonition that the duel with Humbaba is about to come, and his mind is in a mess. It is not what he wants to confront the monster that could once be a friend.

What made him really make up his mind was a few walking merchants he met by chance during the journey, and they were all citizens of Uruk.

When they met Gilgamesh and Enkidu, their eyes were about to overflow with joy. First, they respectfully contributed the precious harvest of this caravan, and then faintly revealed the difficulties of their journey.

A monster suddenly ran towards them and wanted to attack them, causing the caravan to lose most of their property and to be in a panic.

"It's Humbaba again." Gilgamesh had heard countless people complaining about Humbaba's treasure along the way, and his ears were almost callused. He snorted coldly, and his murderous intent suddenly surfaced.

"It's really unpleasant. You actually ran amok in this king's courtyard."

When other villagers not affiliated with Uruk confide their bitterness, he has not been so angry, but once his basic etiquette is involved, the anger has gone straight to the sky.

Enkidu also silently lowered his eyes, realizing that Humbaba had really changed.

The child who was by his side tenderly before was no longer there.

Suppressing the traces of sadness spreading from the bottom of his heart, Enkidu took a deep breath, and his brows and eyes also became firm: "Let's go, before more crises come."

So, the two accelerated their walking speed, and after a few days, they came to the forest and saw the tall monster like a hill.

Different from Enkidu's memory, for some reason, Humbaba's body was permeated with thick black energy, which was a collection of all evils, which would swallow Humbaba's rationality, making it irritable and merciless.

"Has it been polluted, this monster?" Gilgamesh understood the reason at a glance.

Countless golden spaces instantly opened up behind him, from which various treasures were displayed one by one, shining with dazzling light.

This is the treasure they collected during this journey, and now, these treasures finally have a place to display their value.

As if aware of his murderous intent, the dark monster looked down at him with its blood-red eyes, and suddenly roared loudly: "Oh!"

The tyrannical wind he blows is enough to scratch the soft skin, and the slight movement of the soles of his feet on the ground can make the ground tremble. The clouds in the sky are blown away by the wind, revealing a terrifying darkness. The strength of this beast is extremely terrifying. , It is incomparable to all the enemies in the past.

"Tch." Gilgamesh couldn't open his eyes due to the wind, and his golden hair fluttered in the air, becoming messy.

Realizing Humbaba's powerful strength for the first time, Gilgamesh frowned, and unconsciously, some cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

He clearly realized that he could not defeat Humbaba by himself. Although the king's pride did not allow him to say such discouraged words, he still couldn't breathe heavily under the tremendous pressure.

"Enkidu!" He began to call the only Enkidu who could fight by his side.

During his loud call, Enkidu, who had been staring at the monsters in the sky with his eyes wide open, woke up suddenly. On that beautiful face, the sadness and hesitation had not really faded away.

Seeing his friend become like this with his own eyes, the operation of the Enkidu system appeared to be stuck. It was a kind of endless sadness that lingered in his heart, the pain of having to take action against his friend.

He turned his head blankly to meet Gilgamesh's gaze.

Then in an instant, he saw the firm will in those blood-red eyes.

The golden king stared at him, his brows and eyes full of trust in him.

It seems that he believes in him, no matter when, he will be with himself to fight against the enemy in front of him.

Enkidu was embraced by the emotion that was conceived, as if soaked in a hot spring, there was a warmth from the bottom of his heart, which could support his heart and make him entrust himself wholeheartedly.

He also believed in Gilgamesh.

The curvature of the lips was slightly raised, and the blue eyes were filled with warmth and softness. Enkidu suddenly clenched his fists and stretched out his arms towards Gilgamesh.

Seeing his action, Gilgamesh was slightly taken aback, but the next second he smiled excitedly, stretched out his fist, and touched it.

This is a testament to fighting side by side and trusting each other.

Enkidu is far from alone.

"Let me free you, Humbaba."

Muttering words like prayers in his mouth, Enkidu narrowed his eyes sharply, and the Sky Lock instantly appeared in front of him, aiming coldly at the huge monster.

At this moment, death and redemption have merged into one, Enkidu is no longer troubled by emotion, only death can save his friend, he firmly believes.

"Are you ready!" Gilgamesh yelled, holding the Deviation Sword in his hand, his whole body was covered with golden armor, and he was ready for battle.

In response to Enkidu's nod, he let go of his nervousness and uneasiness, clenched his palms tightly, laughed and rushed forward.

"Hahaha, a mere monster! This king will punish you!"

Just as Enkidu regained his willpower, so with his help, Gilgamesh also suppressed the fear of facing invincibility.

As long as they fight with Enkidu, they will be invincible!

The proud king finally found a partner who could trust his life and death, and full of joy, resolutely attacked the terrible monster.

The sky lock followed closely behind, shielding him from the surrounding attacks and paving the way for him to rush forward without any scruples.

This battle was fought in the dark and dark, and almost exhausted both physical and financial resources.

Ever since Enkidu and Gilgamesh fought with each other for three days and three nights to a draw, they have never experienced such a terrible battle. Fortunately, two people working together are much better than going alone. Many, although the fight is not easy, but it is quite smooth.

I don't know how long it took, from night to day, from day to night, the sun and the moon alternated, the stars appeared, and the dark monster finally dissipated its magic power and collapsed.

And Enkidu and Gilgamesh were equally exhausted and out of breath, and they didn't even have the strength to stand on the ground. They could only support each other, and looked at the gradually disappearing monsters with hazy vision.

But no matter whether they were tired or sore, at this moment, the word victory came to mind, filling them with joy and wanting to laugh out loud.

"Hahaha, hahahaha won! It's our victory!"

Gilgamesh is a man who does whatever he wants, and he really laughed out loud.

His arm was still on Enkidu's shoulder, and he patted it hard twice, and Enkidu was almost kneeled on the ground with his knees limp, showing a helpless smile.

The feeling of winning was quite good, Enkidu's tense nerves relaxed, and he was even able to chat with Gilgamesh.

"This time, don't you say it's your own credit?"

In the past, Gilgamesh would proudly take all the credit into his own hands every time, but it was rare for him to say the words "our victory". Enkidu didn't care about credit or not, he just wanted to tease Gil Just Gamesh.

During the journey with Gilgamesh, he learned a lot of emotions. This kind of teasing is an expression of intimacy and his trust in Gilgamesh.

Gilgamesh looked at him lazily, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "This king's contribution is naturally great. There is no doubt about it. If this king hadn't charged ahead, he would not have been able to annihilate this monster!"

Enkidu chuckled lightly, this arrogant and complacent look was indeed Gilgamesh.

"but"

As soon as the topic changed, Gilgamesh suddenly curled up his lips, revealing a slight smile.

This smile is like a spring breeze, extremely soft and warm.

"Without your help this time, I must not be able to kill him so easily."

"This is the credit you and I fought together."

"I am grateful to you, Enkidu."

Those blood-red eyes are no longer murderous and cold, on the contrary, like melting ice and snow, exuding the breath of a hundred flowers blooming in March.

The blond king stared at him like this, and the words that spit out from his mouth were the warmest words in the world that could touch Enkidu's heartstrings.

That night, Enkidu and Gilgamesh finished their journey and returned to the beautiful hometown of Uruk.

They didn't tell anyone about their return, but as soon as they set foot on the gate of Uruk, there was a burst of cheers. The people of Uruk gathered on the street, scattering flower petals with one hand and waving colorful silk satin with the other. The bright face is full of smiles.

"King, congratulations on the return of the king!"

"Congratulations to the king and Lord Enkidu for winning the battle and destroying the monsters!"

"The prosperity of Uruk lasts forever!"

All kinds of blessings sounded in all directions, causing Enkidu to widen his eyes in surprise. Looking aside, even Gilgamesh looked a little confused, not knowing what happened.

At this time, a beautiful woman in a green robe stepped out quickly, bowed to the two of them first, and then respectfully said: "Congratulations to the king and Lord Enkidu for their return."

"Siduri." Gilgamesh raised his eyebrows, puzzled by the warm welcome.

Before he could ask, Siduri had already explained his doubts to him: "A businessman came back the day before yesterday and said that the king and Lord Enkidu were going to deal with that evil monster, so I will wait again and wait for the return of the two of you. "

After she finished speaking, she smiled slightly, looked around at the people who were still cheering, and her heart was surging: "It is a blessing for the people of Uruk that the king and Lord Enkidu can defeat that terrible monster, and the people of Uruk are grateful. "

Enkidu and Gilgamesh finally understood what had happened, because they became heroes to protect Uruk, so the people of Uruk embraced their king with gratitude and enthusiasm.

This kind of congratulatory scene was almost never seen before, so even Gilgamesh was slightly stunned for a moment.

After understanding the cause of the incident, the corners of his lips kept rising, revealing a pleasant smile, and he turned to look at Enkidu, his eyes full of tenderness.

"It is a great joy to wipe out the monsters today!"

Gilgamesh suddenly shouted loudly: "My king declares that there will be three days of celebration in Uruk and a feast!"

"The prosperity of Uruk lasts forever!"

"The prosperity of Uruk lasts forever!"

Following his order, every inch of land in Uruk was filled with joy, which was even more grand than celebrating the king's birthday.

At this moment, everyone stopped what they were doing, and raised their arms to cheer for the prosperity of Uruk. They were proud of being born in Uruk, and proud of having such a powerful and heroic King of Heroes.

Enkidu looked around at everything, and couldn't help being overwhelmed by the atmosphere, and laughed heartily.

All the tiredness and emptiness turned into nothingness at this time, which made him feel sincerely that being here, in the land of Uruk, is really an incomparable wealth in his life.

Gilgamesh also smiled happily. After scanning everyone's expressions with satisfaction, he didn't stop at the people, but turned to look at Enkidu, and said suddenly: "You said you have never seen Uruk before." Bonfire dinner."

Enkidu blinked, as if he understood what he was going to say.

And Gilgamesh smiled, and raised his chin triumphantly: "It's just right, today I will let you see how prosperous the dinner party in Uruk is!"

"I'm looking forward to it." Enkidu squinted his eyes, and a halo leaked from his eyes, "It must be very grand."

As night falls, the stars twinkle and a grand bonfire burns in the square.

The people of Uruk are either holding fine wine, toasting to drink together, or tasting delicious food, or dancing around the bonfire to their heart's content, showing the happiness in their hearts.

Sure enough, it is incomparable to a small village, and it is an extremely magnificent and beautiful scene.

Enkidu recorded this scene in the system. Even after several years, he still can't forget the beautiful scenery in front of him, the joy in his heart, and the emotion in his heart are all affected by Uruk. piece of land.

Seeing him standing here alone, many people warmly invited him to dance, and Enkidu did not refuse. They circled the bonfire and chatted happily with everyone.

These communications are enough to perfect his human system. Only in Uruk, Enkidu's character gradually breaks away from weapons and moves towards a real human being.

I don't know how long the noisy time passed, and Enkidu even had a long talk with Siduli for a while.

"Thank you for everything you have done for the king." Siduri was sincerely grateful, and then blinked mischievously, "It must be a headache for the king to be willful."

This made Enkidu couldn't help laughing, yes, I am afraid that only Siduri here can understand Gilgamesh's willfulness.

"Sometimes it's really troublesome." Enki couldn't lie, and gradually, his brows and eyes softened, and various memories of the journey appeared in his mind, "But... I am very grateful to him, the time with him, Really enjoyable."

In any case, this memory is a treasure worth cherishing for a lifetime.

Now that the journey is over, I feel a little sad when I recall the past.

If possible, he hoped that the journey would be longer and slower. The days of walking with Gilgamesh made him very happy.

There will be another trip.

Enkidu told himself silently in his heart.

Let's go on a trip together next time, Jill.

Talking to the moon and stars, the sky was already dark, and the banquet was still not over. Many people were drunk, but they still talked happily together.

Enkidu searched for the figure of Gilgamesh, until he saw a lone shadow standing on a small hill, and walked there without hesitation.

Looking at the back of that person standing silently on a high place, Enkidu's heart suddenly seemed to be stabbed. It was obvious that the people were singing and dancing, but Gilgamesh seemed so lonely, so lonely.

At the very least, I am going to accompany him.

Enkidu made up his mind and walked forward slowly.

"So you are here."

The gentle voice broke the silent night nearby. Gilgamesh, who was closing his eyes and meditating, opened his eyes. His blood-red eyes stared behind him. Perhaps it was because of the moonlight like water, his eyes showed a gentle tenderness: " What's the matter? Is the public banquet over?"

"It didn't end until the morning, and they all had a great time."

Enkidu followed his gaze down to the people who were still dancing, and a thought that had been hovering in their hearts suddenly emerged.

"Why did you decide to defeat that monster? Although he did make a mess of the country, you didn't do it for the sake of the people, did you?"

"No, this is for the people of Uruk." Gilgamesh quickly replied, "If the evil on the ground is not defeated, the people will die of hunger."

These are the true words in his heart, he will never lie, and he doesn't bother to lie.

But Enkidu's doubts have not been resolved: "Why, you obviously oppressed and exploited the sentient beings in Uruk with a tyrannical government, making them miserable. Why do you care about your people when you are like this?"

"Oh." Gilgamesh crossed his arms around his chest, and suddenly smiled softly, "There are also different types of protection, just blindly defending and protecting is not protection, and it also needs to be cruel and harsh from time to time."

There was tenderness in his voice, and it seemed that Enkidu understood his duty as king for the first time.

"Because it is the king's responsibility to build the civilization and future of this planet."

Enkidu: "...the king's responsibility?"

"That's right." Gilgamesh stared at Sheng Shidao below, "This king is a king, and he lives as a king. Since this is the case, he must be with mankind and the future of mankind, until the end of the world."

After hearing these words, Enkidu fully understood the great king.

"In other words, you will always stick to the path you believe in."

As if he had been poked into his heart, Gilgamesh smiled resignedly. It was a smile that was as natural as a breeze that he would occasionally see on his face when he was young.

At this time, Enkidu finally understood why Gilgamesh was always alone, that was his own choice, the choice of the king.

Because the path he chose only allows him to move forward alone.

He said that he would guard those things that he saw from the distant future.

If you hate the gods for this

hate human beings for this

The king can only exist in isolation.

The more he wants mankind to have a better future and the more he loves mankind, the farther he will be from all mankind.

Both arbiter and reaper.

What the king wants to hold in his hands is as long as the result is enough.

The glorious process born of this result is something that he, a human being or higher, cannot intervene in.

"Hmph. The result is just like a boring fabric. But since I've decided to do so, I'll do it until the last moment." Gilgamesh declared like this, and Enkidu's heart surged with such bold words.

It's just that such a choice is too sad.

Just looking at Gilgamesh like this, Enkidu's chest will show a heart-wrenching pain, which makes him unbearable.

He couldn't help but said: "Why don't you tell the people this sentence, if this continues, no one will understand you, and you will be alone until the end."

"This king is not alone." Gilgamesh closed his eyes, but raised the corners of his lips slightly. The next second, he stared at Enkidu standing in front of him, and smiled suddenly, "Isn't there still you?"

Those eyes still showed an extremely gentle color, Enkidu was stunned in place, but soon, he also laughed: "Yes, I am just a prop. It is useless to your judgment Things. Therefore, until the day the world ends, I will be by your side."

Facing this declaration from the bottom of his heart, Gilgamesh showed some displeasure, and whispered, "Stupid."

"Stupid." He spit out the word for the second time, facing the surprised Enkidu, he suddenly stretched his brows.

Behind him was a beautiful silver full moon, and the moonlight shone lightly on his body, like a shimmering white gauze.

At this moment, the broken hair on the forehead slightly covered the pair of red eyes, and the emotion revealed from them was a rare tenderness in the world.

He showed such an expression, never before, never before, only once, at this moment.

"To survive together and fight side by side, what can be done is not human beings or props."

"Listen to Enkidu, this kind of relationship is called"

At that time, I felt as if I had received words that shone like stars and were extremely precious.

At that time, I felt that I really, for the first time, had myself.

Osamu Dazai woke up suddenly from his sleep, and sat upright on the bed.

"..."

His face was ugly for a while, and Dazaiji's expression was cloudy and uncertain, and finally turned into a simple word: "Damn!"

It's gay dog ​​food in gay again, why does he always let him watch this kind of stuff!
