Chapter 9
Ishtar squeezed the unbonding document, and stared dumbfounded at Enkidu who was leisurely flipping through books in the huge living room of Gilgamesh's house. The other party's body exuded "bonded" pheromones and current energy from the inside out. The triumphant gestures all speak the truth and point to a—
"...My lord?" She looked at Gilgamesh, the colonel, with a trembling voice.
The latter patiently closed his eyes and lay back.
"Yes, that's right, that's it."
What is this? !Ishtar was about to scream, she felt her tense nerves were shaking, and her tone was almost broken, "You, you and him...?! With this guide who has never been on the battlefield?!"
Enkidu lowered his head and didn't move, concentrating on reading, not wanting to show that he, who had never been on a battlefield, could beat her thirteen times with one hand.
Gilgamesh narrowed his eyes slightly, and glanced over sharply.
"When will it be my turn to make decisions, Ishtar?"
Ishtar immediately shut her mouth. This black-haired, black-eyed, charming woman bit her red lips and stared at Enkidu unwillingly and resentfully. The latter finally raised his head and gave her an understated smile.
Ishtar almost fell on his back in anger.
That look at inanimate objects——!
It's irreconcilable!She and he are irreconcilable!I will definitely kill him one day!A thousand cuts will cut the bones into ashes!
God is sorry, Enkidu looks at everyone like this, oh, except for Gilgamesh.
"If you have nothing else to do, leave." Gilgamesh ordered unceremoniously, "I will be returning to the battlefield next week. It is better to go back and train more if you come here. The frequency of attacks is too low."
Aga hid behind Ishtar, and now she was finally able to poke her head out and grab the back of her clothes.
He bows to Gilgamesh.
"Then, my lord, we will take our leave first. If you are free, please visit the training camp."
Gilgamesh nodded condescendingly, stopped looking at Ishtar who was unwilling to be pulled out, and turned his gaze to Enkidu.
It was nearly noon at this time, and Enkidu was sitting by the window, the crimson curtains were pulled up, and the golden light shone straight into the room, printing on his light green hair.
He lowered his head, twirling the corners of the page with his slender fingers, his hair slipped from his shoulders, covering his side face and lips, revealing only his eyes focused on reading.
Gilgamesh kicked his chair.
"looking at what?"
Enkidu turned over the cover, "Incineration and Dissection of Battlefield Corpses".
He explained, "I'm going to fight the Confederates soon, and I want to make some preparations."
"What's the use of just reading a book? The battlefield is not the same as printed letters." Gilgamesh snorted, staring at Enkidu with a malicious smile on his lips, "When you start killing people, you know that all words are inferior The blood on the upper finger is memorable."
Enki was unmoved and just smiled at him.
Gilgamesh raised an eyebrow.
At this time, one can clearly feel that Enkidu is different from ordinary people.
"Although he is a beautiful man, he is very boring," he commented harshly. "Your eyes are very light, shining brightly in the sun, but the light is like glass refraction, without a trace of vitality... boring, It's really boring, you guy, are you just a puppet?"
Enkidu shrugged, noncommittal, "You like things with vitality?"
"I like power, and myself, isn't that obvious," he raised his chin, "When you have everything in the world, you will find that there is nothing that can arouse your desire anymore, so, yes , Waterweed, all of you are very boring to me, just have vitality, the posture of struggling to survive and the desire to constantly seek will make you a little bit more interesting.”
"...my name is Enkidu," he corrected him helplessly, "Your boredom is because you have got too much, how about trying to leave some? When you lack, dissatisfaction will emerge from the bottom of your heart , generate desire—there will be a real sense of being alive.”
"Hmm..." Gilgamesh fell into thought, "It makes sense... Heh, didn't you say something very interesting, aquatic plants. Indeed, when human beings are barren, they try to get everything in vain... But in this world Everything is what I want, even if I don't need it anymore, they should justly crawl in the dust, waiting for my luck again."
"..." What a lustful and proud person.
Enkidu looked at him quietly.
He thinks that everything in this world belongs to him, and it is this lust that enables him to maintain his own character while gaining the whole world.
"So, is there anything else you want, weed?" Gilgamesh asked.
He paused, looked directly at him and said, "...Yes."
Gilgamesh became interested, "Let's hear it."
Enkidu slowly revealed a smile, not his habitual upturning of the corners of his lips, this smile was very jerky, like a real puppet trying to smile for the first time out of joy from the heart.
"--you."
Gilgamesh was stunned for a moment, feeling so ridiculous that he couldn't help laughing.
"What are you talking about? Water grass, do you want to get me? - You really don't know what to do!"
Enkidu lowered his head, smiling even a little shyly.
He reopened the book, with a soft and calm voice, "This is indeed whimsical, but, sir, this is the first time I want to get someone, so I will work hard."
"..." Gilgamesh leaned back on the seat, thinking about how to answer better.
Even if he refused directly, he didn't think that Enki was the type who would give up, and to be honest, as a sentinel, the number of people who were confessed from childhood to adulthood could be arranged from the S-shape of the Empire to the Allies. This kind of thing has long been used to , the difference is that others are "others", Enki is "his guide", and his identity is more troublesome.
"It's actually quite interesting," Gilgamesh concluded, "although I don't think I'll be moved by you, but water plants, your posture like a drowning person stuck in the mud and sand can only reach out to the water in vain forever. Can please me... well, I promise you, you will do your best, and work hard towards the picture of dying in despair before the last second of holding on to hope."
"..."
Really, a very bad speech.
Enkidu marked page 27 with a pen, suppressing the desire to cheer.
"Thank you very much, sir."
Before setting off, Enkidu went to the tower first, and handed in the book of complete union and the suicide note—yes, every soldier before going to the battlefield deposited the suicide note in the tower in advance, and in case of missing or confirmed death, the The suicide note is handed over to the family.
In the middle of the way, he saw Rin Tohsaka temporarily serving as an assistant instructor on the playground, pointing at a group of tall sentries in front of him with one hand on his hips, scolding them bloody, and then demonstrating as a guide, playing perfectly Ten ten rings, within 1.5 seconds.
. . . it was terrible.
Enkidu thought, with Tohsaka's state, it might take until the last day to find the sentinel, but that's fine, if she goes to the battlefield half a year later, the fiercest battle may have passed by then, and the possibility of her survival will increase.
Enkidu walked into the tower, and Kotomine Kirei, who is also the director of the family planning committee, glanced at him—he had always had mixed feelings about this kind of combination of same-sex sentinels and guides who could not breed the next generation of sentries—then pulled out the middle document.
"For your mission this time, Colonel Gilgamesh's subordinates have returned to his formation. You'd better get along with them better."
"Yes." He nodded, and scanned to the first line of "Number K78A52 Ishtar" on the top page.
"Go back and tell the colonel that the departure time is scheduled for next Tuesday, and the action time is Thursday."
"Yes."
Enkidu waited for a while, made sure there was nothing wrong, and nodded to Yanfeng to leave.
"and many more."
Kotomine Kirei called him to stop, he thought for a while, took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer, and threw it to Enkidu.
"When we arrive at Kita Fuyuki Battlefield, hand me over to Lieutenant Colonel Emiya Kiritsugu."
Enkidu blinked subtly and nodded in agreement.
"and also."
He turned his head and saw Yanfeng's heavy eyes.
"Live."
Enkidu laughed.
"I will."
