After crossing, I inherited Uruk

After that, obviously only a few days passed, but it seemed as difficult as the years.

Faced with new battle reports every day, the monsters were tirelessly attacking the cities on the Mesopotamian plains driven by their killing instincts.

If the people who first lived in the cities of Sumer might have thought that the attack was an accident, then after this kind of thing happened every day, people finally realized that something was wrong.

However, the strength of human beings living in the Age of Gods is beyond doubt.The managers of the fortress cities have made preparations and quickly reached an agreement. For example, the daily communication time will be adjusted to once a day, and it may be shortened again according to the severity of the situation. The purpose is to ensure that Understand each other's current situation in each other's territory so as to provide timely support to each other.

The number of wounded patients received by the hospital is increasing day by day, but according to King Gilgamesh, because of Ur’s information, he used the king’s power to force people in other cities to flee and prepare in time before the matter fully expanded— —Although it is inevitable that there will be people who don't care about this and reap the consequences, the final casualties are still more than half less than expected.

This made Ur feel a little relieved, after all, Gilgamesh did not have the habit of lying, and at the same time, his character made him disdain to tell any lies. —It would be an insult to a king to doubt him on this point.

That's great, although if I think about it now, I will find that I was a bit too messy at the time, but... It's great that someone was rescued because of my timely discovery.

However, now is not the time to be distracted.

At this time, Urningal was standing behind Gilgamesh, quietly staring at his back.

The sun had just risen in the clouds, and its brilliance replaced the long dark night when there were no lights in BC.The morning light shines on every piece of land and every body equally and gently without hesitation.

Gilgamesh stood facing the wind, the belt around his waist fluctuating with the wind.The light fell on his golden hair, and the King of Uruk looked more dazzling and majestic than the rising sun in the sky.

This scene is like a picture scroll drawn by an excellent painter. ——At the beginning of the new day, under the blue sky and clouds, the king stood on the terrace of the tower and watched his country and people.

But Urningal knew that this superficial beauty was about to be shattered with the passage of time, revealing the cruel and dark truth behind it.

After a while, the group of monsters that only act during the day will appear again.

But... now...

Urningal heard footsteps behind him.The boy with blond hair turned his head and saw a slim figure as expected.

Siduri, the chief priest wearing a veil, walked slowly to the side of the young crown prince and the other side behind King Gilgamesh.The venerable woman bowed slightly to Ur, and Urningar gave her a nod.

Uruk is ruled by the kingship, and the status of Urningal as the crown prince is also honored.

But in fact, Uruk is not united as one, but separated by the three powers of kingship, sacrificial grounds and witches.Siduri, one of the assistants of King Gilgamesh and the priest of Uruk, is the person in charge of the sacrificial ground, and is therefore deeply respected by the people of Uruk, and Urningal is no exception.

Of course, not only is she noble in status, but also Siduri's character and ability are worthy of respect.When King Gilgamesh left Uruk to search for the herb of immortality, Uruk, which lost its kingly rule, gradually declined, but it was still barely maintained under the management of the sacrificial field and the witches' house. ——Siduri certainly contributed a lot to making the country survive until the day the king returned.

But...at such a time...has the person in charge of the witch's office not come?

Urningal thought with some confusion, suppressing a trace of uneasiness in his heart.

Although it is true that compared to Gilgamesh, the representative of the kingship, the group of priestesses do pay more attention to the city god.But at such an important moment when all the people of Uruk are gathered in one place, it is really not good to be absent...?Even if Gilgamesh doesn't say anything now because he has more important matters, but according to his strict personality, he will definitely ask the witch to hold him accountable in the future.

At this time, Gilgamesh was announcing the coming of disaster to the people of Uruk gathered outside the tower—he did not hide the end that he saw with those eyes, that is, the first place in Uruk. The fall of the dynasty.

The king naturally disdains to slow down the time to wait for some individuals because they are late. For Gilgamesh, only the subjects have always waited for the king. How can there be any reason for the king to wait for his subjects?And in fact, there really is no waiting time. ——Whether it is the monsters that will attack again in the near future or the government affairs that pile up every day, they are tightly compressing the little free time.

... Sometimes even Ur couldn't help but slander, if it weren't for the blood of the gods, the thick blond hair of the father might not have become thinner due to hard work.

Hiss, it's scary just thinking about it.In the future - if there is a future for Uruk and himself, then he must never be a social animal, absolutely not!absolute!

"..."

Just, without a doubt.Although Ur has never seen the deeds of the former "tyrant" in other people's mouths, but if it is his opinion now, it is...he has to admit what the king has done for Uruk. everything.

Although Gilgamesh didn't say it, Ur could feel——

He must have liked humans.

Looking at the back of Gilgamesh, and listening to him calmly announce the end of destruction and the beginning of disaster to the people gathered in front of the tower, Urningal felt a little dazed for a moment.

Obviously, no matter how you look at it, it is a hopeless scene.The most desperate thing is not the failure after hard work, but the already doomed ending that has been announced.

but.

Looking at his back, Urningal inexplicably felt that if it was him, if it was the king, it might be possible to break the broken ending.

Although it is really strange to describe a person with a word like "omnipotent", but... In Urningal's heart, Gilgamesh is really close to such an image.

Of course, the same is true in the eyes of the citizens of Uruk.

...Really, who wouldn't put a few layers of filters on the virtuous king of their own country.

Urningal couldn't help showing a smile.

Although Gilgamesh uttered the cruel truth, the citizens of Uruk were not overwhelmed by despair, but after a short silence, they regained their courage and began to speak loudly with smiles.

"We will not give up!"

"Wang, you also said that this is just a possibility! Before that future comes, of course we still have to live well!"

"No matter what the future holds, I will never leave Uruk!"

"I live with Uruk! Hahaha, although I don't know if I can live until then, I will try my best to live with Uruk before going to the underworld!"

"King Gilgamesh, please continue to lead us to resist this disaster!"

"..."

"Hmph, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh! That's right! You're worthy of being the subjects of Uruk! Of course, the future of our era must be in our own hands, and we should have stopped it disaster!"

Standing at the highest point overlooking the people, Gilgamesh first raised the corners of his lips, and then let out a hearty laugh.

"Very good! Since that's the case, I will announce the next arrangement! I will open the treasure house of Babylon in a while, build a fortress in the north of Uruk, and then..."

Gilgamesh in front was still enduring the pain in his heart and said that he wanted to share the treasure, but Urningal standing behind him turned his head because he caught some movement and looked further back.

After noticing the suspicious gaze Siduri cast on him because of her sudden movement, Urningal nodded to her again, then took a few steps back, then turned around and left the terrace.

His physique has been different from ordinary people since he was a child. Although Gilgamesh said "he is completely human" since he was a child, this refers more to his "personality". After all, although he is not as good as Gilgamesh, but The blood of the gods still brought Ur five senses beyond ordinary people.

Although Siduri didn't notice it, Ur heard the hurried footsteps coming towards the terrace.

What Urningal noticed, Gilgamesh naturally noticed too.It's just that the current king is obviously not suitable for dealing with other things, not to mention... now that almost all the people of Uruk are gathered in the same place, if there is any accident under the watchful eyes of everyone, it is easy to make people who have finally made it to the Warcraft Under the threat, the stable people's hearts are shaken.

People who would come here at such a time knowing that the timing is not right... I am afraid they will bring some bad news.

However, it is obviously not the time for the monsters to attack... So what happened?

Urningal stopped her before the visitor reached the terrace.

"Ah!" The hurried woman was obviously taken aback, and almost lost her footing when she was suddenly blocked, "U-His Highness Urningal!"

"be careful."

Urningal helped her kindly, and held her firmly with a strength obviously different from that of a normal child, preventing the girl from falling to the ground.

"I remember you... you are the attendant at the witch's office, right? Did something happen?"

"Ah... yes, yes! My lord!"

The girl was in shock, obviously not because she almost fell down before, but because of something else, she said incoherently.

"The chief priestess, the chief priestess...!! The chief priestess and several other priestesses... are dead, dead!"

After finally struggling to tell what happened, the girl seemed to have finally calmed down a bit, and the next words came out more smoothly.

"...It's like falling asleep, without any external injuries, and there is no trace of being attacked, just like being in a dream...but without breathing and heartbeat, there is no doubt...you have thrown yourself into Apusu (Hades) ) among."
