Moran and Gilgamesh walked and bickered.
That scene was both lively and comical.
Enkidu, following behind and watching this pair of brothers who seemed like rivals, could only shake her head helplessly, a wry smile on her face.
She also had something to say: "You two, squandering treasures like this is too much! It's not like you don't have the ability to use them properly."
"Huh? Aren't we using them properly?"
Gilgamesh and Moran said in unison.
Their simultaneous response stunned Enkidu.
She couldn't help but sigh inwardly, originally thinking these two weren't brothers, but it seems they really are blood brothers.
Of course, after they finished speaking, they revealed displeased expressions.
This was just a small interlude on the way back to the city.
[Accompanied by the warm and dazzling light of dawn]
[The three of you walked side by side back to Uruk. To outsiders, you were covered in dust and looked extremely disheveled]
[But, you were chatting and laughing, your faces full of smiles]
[Like close friends who talked about everything]
[Compared to your previous simple bickering with Gilgamesh, with Enkidu's intervention and mediation, she seemed to act as a subtle buffer, easing the tension between you]
[Although Enkidu often sided with you, Gilgamesh didn't really mind]
[He enjoyed this atmosphere]
[This atmosphere of talking about everything and walking alongside friends]
[Perhaps it was just a whim]
[Gilgamesh, in high spirits, once again waved his hand generously, immediately ordering Uruk to hold a grand celebration. This was both to welcome Enkidu's arrival and to gloss over the matter of him forcibly taking a woman]
[In fact, Gilgamesh didn't think too much; he just felt happy, so he held a celebration]
[In any case, the people of Uruk were happy]
[When this tyrant is happy]
[He is as gentle to his people as he is to a lover. When displeased, he is as cruel as he is to an enemy]
[Previously, many people saw Enkidu stop Gilgamesh's tyranny. Because of this, many people regarded Enkidu as a hero, a brave person who could advise the tyrant Gilgamesh]
[Therefore, they were grateful to Enkidu]
[And very willing to hold a celebration for her]
[Gilgamesh, because he was happy, even shared the beasts and wild animals he had hunted not long ago with his people]
[For a time, Uruk was immersed in the celebration]
[Gilgamesh watched the warriors of the dynasty perform martial arts before him like a king of children, while also pondering the techniques of launching the Gate of Babylon, occasionally opening the treasury to practice]
[Of course, in the festive occasion]
[He naturally wouldn't do anything that would cause bloodshed; however, the people couldn't help but laugh and cry at the king's accuracy]
[However, Gilgamesh was very talented]
[After just a few casual pointers from you, he roughly understood how to use the Gate of Babylon]
[At the same time, an acquaintance found you]
[Ereshkigal came to the mortal world through your spiritual evocation. It was her first time experiencing such a festive atmosphere]
"Yo, Ereshkigal."
"M-Moran! What's going on! Is there a celebration? Uruk is so lively! That arrogant Gilgamesh, wouldn't he want to name a festival after himself?"
Ereshkigal wore a burgundy cloak.
She held the hood with both hands, cautiously.
Her curious appearance, looking left and right, was like a kitten who had just arrived in the outside world, which was very interesting to watch.
"Yeah, it's a celebration. Do you want to join?"
"Me? I'm not a god of Uruk, and, if I participate in the celebration without being invited, is that… p-possible?"
"At least, as long as I'm here, no one will say anything about you."
Moran said with a faint smile.
The meaning in his words was to shield her from all criticism in the world, which made Ereshkigal feel an unprecedented sense of security.
This was completely being cared for and protected.
[At this moment, she squirmed like a little girl, not at all like the queen who sits high on the throne of the underworld]
[The crowd around the bonfire was very lively]
[In addition, there were many couples in Uruk snuggling together, their eyes filled with affection]
[Ereshkigal was also infected by the atmosphere]
[This gave her even more courage]
[Just as Ereshkigal was about to reach out and ask you to enjoy the celebration together]
[Another graceful figure came into view]
"Uhehehe, found you… Moran!"
Tiamat walked with light steps.
Different from the past, after spending many years with Moran, her appearance had also become more mature from a child.
Now, this appearance was that of the Mother of Creation.
Her figure was full and charming.
With each step, her breasts would sway slightly.
At the same time, she did not lose the nobility and dignity of being the Mother of All Things, and that ethereal and pure temperament was mesmerizing.
"Tiamat…"
Moran was also slightly dazed.
Especially seeing Tiamat's beautiful appearance, he couldn't help but stare for a while.
Although no one knew Tiamat's identity.
However, the people of Uruk could feel that motherly aura, and the gazes they cast on her were full of love and respect.
"Huh? Mother? Mother is here too?"
Ereshkigal wasn't too surprised.
In her impression, Tiamat and Moran were inseparable. This was also a bit of a jealous point.
No, no, the goddess Tiamat is the mother of all living beings.
Ereshkigal, how can your heart be so small? If this continues, you won't be a good woman!
Many thoughts floated in Ereshkigal's mind again.
But, when Tiamat approached, she was still amazed by Tiamat's beauty.
[It's not that Ereshkigal is worse than Tiamat]
[It's just that Tiamat's temperament as the Mother of All Living Things is almost unique in the world, and no one can imitate it]
[Usually, Tiamat doesn't just stay by your side]
[She also helps the children in the city of Uruk]
[That kindness and gentleness, regardless of men, women, old or young, made them respect her from the bottom of their hearts]
[Many people were speechless for a moment and called her mother, and some even shed tears when they saw the shadow of their deceased mother in her]
[In short, Tiamat regarded everyone as children]
[She was also very happy to be accepted]
[But, in this celebration where everyone was very happy, she wanted to spend time alone with you].
