Chapter 647

Anna: "...this..."

Gilgamesh's description left Anna speechless.

It was also the first time that people heard such a definition and explanation of sacrifices.

Hermitus admired that Gilgamesh seemed to have a very thorough understanding of the evil side of human nature.

I used to just enjoy admiring the shining souls of those heroes...

I didn't pay attention to these dark things,

Of course Hermitus also knew it, but the impression was much more profound at this moment.

really--

Even for such a perfect race, where there is light, there are also dark places where light cannot shine.

What a cruel and extremely realistic statement——!

King Gilgamesh: “As long as there is still human society, there will always be more or less living sacrifices.

But according to what this king has heard, the situation in Ur City is different.

Savage, but rational. Not killing to belittle,

It's because he recognized its value that he killed it. "

Roman: "Because I recognize its value... Do you want to say,

Is being chosen a living sacrifice an honor in itself? "

'honor'?

I remembered the images of the people in Ur City lowering their heads in shame after everything was exposed, and the images of those women hiding in corners holding the women crying softly.

This kind of honor—is this really what people want?

Everyone felt confused.

But this is a 'gift from the gods' that cannot be refused...

To sum up the attitude of the people of Ur City facing this matter, this is exactly the case.

But a gift that cannot be refused - what is the difference between it and a curse... Thinking of this,

Everyone shuddered and shuddered.

Chapter 879: Twinkle: I want to go out for a private visit (play) in private!

Gilgamesh: "Just my thoughts.

However, this still cannot change the reality of sacrifice.

Even though I hate him so much now, I can't take action now.

Merlin. Can Eridu be seen from Ur?

Is Ax still alive? "

Merlin: "No. The sea of trees is very dense. You can't see Eridu from Ur."

ax? What ax?

Everyone couldn't help but subconsciously look at the thing called the 'magic wand' in Gilgamesh's hand...

Who knows what King Gilgamesh said this time...

Maybe it's completely different from what they imagined? !

After all, he is a man who calls and uses an ax like a wand.

Even if you use a wand or something like an ax, uh... isn't it impossible?

Arrive at Eridu - it seems to be the place where people in the city of Ur said that living sacrifices would be sent.

If you can get there, you will definitely understand the truth of everything.

Everyone frowned.

They saw Merlin continue to speak: “But I did feel a powerful spirit.

It can be assumed that the ax is still in Eridu. "

Gilgamesh: "Really? Then it seems that we must conquer the Sea of Trees.

We have to start building a delivery truck..."

Then Gilgamesh dismissed everyone,

Anyway, Guda and the others were tired from their long journey, and Wang would not be too harsh on his subordinates on such trivial matters.

certainly--

After these people have rested, his next mission will be announced.

This was not unexpected at all——

They have gradually begun to get used to and accept that this King Gilgamesh is different from the epic, hardworking and unimaginably wise.

The king works so hard, and the subordinates can only slack off, so they can be given a good repair. According to Siduli-this is already the king's preferential treatment! ?

However--

Just when people thought that Siduli would send other tasks in the future, and that the king would be even busier after receiving the report, id was working on the series of forest inspection plans for Ur City,

On the second day.

It was just dawn, the whole of Uruk was very quiet, and the beautiful sunshine was reflected from the window.

Merlin yawned and said hello to Mashu and the others...

Several people were talking about what interesting orders the chief priest Siduli would give this time.

However, a surprising figure appeared in front of the door.

? ? ? : "Excuse me. Is this where you live?"

Oh, it's pretty big as a rain shelter. "

Merlin: "!"

Everyone: "...!!"

They were so stunned that they could not speak.

With his dazzling blond hair, eyes as red as blood, and strong eight-pack abs, he is a proud figure that is unmistakable to anyone who has seen him.

"King...King Gilgamesh——!"

Gilgamesh: "Stop it, your voice is too loud!

What if that guy Siduli is attracted? "

The wise king frowned and extended his palm to declare...

It seemed that this time she came out early in the morning and did not say hello to Siduli.

‘…There’s a problem…! 'Everyone, stare~!

Is there any secret plan to avoid Sister Siduli like this?

"Sorry...I'm sorry, King Gilgamesh.

That...so...this morning...that...what are you doing? "Ma Xiu asked cautiously from the side.

I didn't expect that Wang would come here in person...

A smile appeared on Gilgamesh's face: "Humph. I just want to change my taste occasionally.

Anyway, you are tired of listening to Siduli's orders, right?

So this time, I will personally assign the work.

Nothing, not some rough work. Just a simple water quality survey. "

A sudden visit early in the morning just for this kind of thing? !

Everyone had a black line on their heads and looked dumbfounded.

Just let Siduri convey such a small thing for you!

Why does the king still come in person——and,

People looked at Guda and Mashu, who were uncomfortable sitting and standing.

Hmm... I always think they would like Siduri's order more.

Even if you no longer have to be summoned by the chief priest Siduri, don't you still have to be summoned by the king now? Facing the latter may be even more stressful.

However--

Gilgamesh doesn't care whether these people like it or not;

There was a faint smile on his face, he seemed to be in a good mood, and he didn't care how these people would react.

Gilgamesh: "The cart is ready.

Next you have to go south from Uruk to the Persian Gulf.

There is an observatory in the Persian Gulf.

There are ten-day bottles there that automatically store seawater.

Send the empty bottles loaded in the truck,

Just bring back the bottle filled with sea water. "

"Is it moving goods? I understand.

The job seems to be quite simple this time, Master! "When it comes to work, Ma Xiu also immediately got into the mood with a relaxed smile on his face.

Gilgamesh: "Well, of course it's simple. After all, the road to the Persian Gulf is the only area that even the three goddesses will not attack."

For some reason, people felt that the smile on King Gilgamesh's face became happier and his mood seemed to become brighter.

‘Isn’t this work... almost like a vacation? You will not encounter enemy attacks, it is safe, easy and simple. ’ The blacksmith’s son couldn’t help but think.

Wang actually arranged such a job specially,

Is it a way to comfort and comfort Guda and the others because they are too tired?

‘What a merciful king! He cares so much about the status of his subordinates.

I want my subordinates to cultivate their spirit and make better use of it! ’ People speculated one after another and praised the king’s behavior.

After all, he had learned from past mistakes. The king specially recalled his soldiers to see his grandson.

People began to admire the king's wisdom even more -

Haha~! If nothing happened next...

“By the way, Merlin and Anna don’t have to participate this time.

Because there are only two more permits to travel to the Persian Gulf. "

Only……

Two more? !

Everyone nodded subconsciously, so that's it.
