Chapter 44 The Destined Friend
Fran stayed at the palace in Uruk for a few more days, dealing with the mess left by Gilgamesh, who was recuperating.But a few days later, when Fran went to look for Enkidu again, she found that he and Gilgamesh were playing together, and the two were as good as brothers.
Fran: 'What's going on? ? ? '
Fran originally thought that the two destined opponents would cherish each other but confront each other, but unexpectedly, the two got along unexpectedly well.And this wonderful pattern reminded Fran of another pair of close friends who were entangled in grievances.
Enkidu and Gilgamesh are like copies of Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara.Enkidu and Hashirama who are also naturally black and natural, Jill and Madara who are also red-eyed and arrogant.They are natural opponents, and they are also best friends who seem to be different, but in reality they are like mirror images.
The god-made king Gilgamesh and the god-made weapon Enkidu, the wedge of the sky and the lock of the sky, they are like each other's half body.
Seeing Enkidu and Jill fighting and practicing martial arts together, Fran sighed softly in her heart: "I hope you can have a good ending, don't be like Hashirama and Madara."
------------------------
Since the duel between Gilgamesh and Enkidu, he has indeed changed a lot. He restrained his eccentric and violent temper, no longer willfully issued some powerful edicts, no longer imposed excessive taxes, and no longer resorted to military raids.
But he is no longer the virtuous king he was when he was young. The reckless behavior of the past few years has left a deep impact on this young king.
Enkidu was invited by Gilgamesh to stay in the palace, and the two of them either fought in martial arts, went out to hunt, collected treasures, or played with weapons, and lived a relaxed and happy life every day.
Fran was tricked by these two overage children.Gilgamesh took Enkidu to play, and forgot about government affairs and the like, but he didn't forget to give Fran the title of "Regent" and left all the affairs of Uruk to her .
Officials at all levels gathered in Fulan's bedroom, looked at her with teary eyes, and said, "You have already succeeded in forcing the palace, and there is nothing wrong with the king!"
Fran sighed inwardly: "Forget it, anyway, there's nothing to do now, so let's pass the time."Anyway, it was to clean up the trouble caused by Enkidu before, so let Gilgamesh worry about it now. '
So Fran picked up the carving knife, restored the identity of Namu Uru, and took over the management of Uruk.
-----------------------
"Fran!" Enkidu, with long turquoise hair loose, came to Fran excitedly, his delicate face full of joy and excitement.
Fran put down the cloth scroll in her hand, raised her head and asked, "Enkidu, why did you come back so early today?" Seeing Enkidu's expression, she asked curiously, "Why are you so happy? What interesting things did you collect?" Is there anything?"
Enkidu squeezed into the vacant part of Fran's stool and sat down next to Fran with a smile, "Fran, it's my birthday!"
Fran asked in surprise, "Birthday? But, do you remember your own birthday?"
Enkidu shook his head and replied: "I don't remember the day I was born, but I remember the day I got reason, I wanted to use that day, but Jill said he could share his birthday with me so that I share a birthday with him."
Fran looked up at Gilgamesh, who was lazily leaning against the wall with his arms folded, and felt that he was looking at a kidnapper: "I thought you were sworn brothers, and you didn't want to be born in the same year, the same month, and the same day, but to die in the same year, the same month, and the same day. I didn't expect , you even have to celebrate your birthday together."
Fran looked at Enkidu again, and asked, "I didn't hear your request before, why did you suddenly remember celebrating your birthday?"
Enkidu pointed at his beautiful face with his white fingers, and asked ignorantly, "Gill told me that human beings celebrate their birthdays, don't they?"
Fran raised her eyebrows and looked at Gilgamesh, and said meaningfully: "You spend your birthday with His Majesty Ningsun, right, little Gil."
Gilgamesh, who was leaning against the wall, snorted softly, walked over, and looked at Fran with his arms folded: "This king is already a mature man, and he has not celebrated his birthday with the mother god for a long time. Although the mother god Compassionate, but you can’t control me now.”
Fran chuckled lightly: "What birthday does the big man have?"
Gilgamesh bent down and patted the table in front of Fran, and said, "Isn't the birthday of a great king like this king worth celebrating?!"
Enkidu gently tugged on Laflan's sleeve and said, "What about Fran, I've never heard Fran mention your birthday!"
Fran gently straightened Enkidu's messy hair, and explained lightly, "I don't need a birthday."
Enkidu asked suspiciously: "Why? Because you are not human?"
Fran smiled faintly without explaining.
'Because my time was frozen after I became a Heroic Spirit.Only when I rediscover my identity will my time move again. '
Enkidu took Fran's hand and shook it gently: "Hey, otherwise, Fran will have a birthday with us! Let's celebrate together."
Fran shook her head lightly, and declined politely: "I don't need it, you two can play."
Gilgamesh said unhappily from the side: "Hey, woman, what's your attitude, my king and my best friend invite you so sincerely..." Then he was thrown by Fran, and the second half of the sentence Swallowed down the throat.
Enkidu asked Fran strangely: "Hey, Fran, why don't you celebrate your birthday? Didn't you tell me before that you hope I can understand human life and emotions?"
Fran sighed softly: "Enkidu, I'm different from you and Jill. Before me, I was a human being. So, it's not that I don't understand human feelings and practices you mentioned, nor do I understand them. Not wanting to try, but not necessary.”
Enkidu looked at Fran with clear blue eyes.
Fran stroked Enkidu's forehead, and said softly: "Enkidu, among us, only you are like a real child, full of curiosity and ignorance about the world. But you play with Jill, a weird character like you. , but I have never stopped you, or even supported you."
Gilgamesh's face was dark: "Hey, hey, what are you talking about this king?"
Fran ignored Gilgamesh, and continued, "Because, maybe in this world, only you are the same kind, and only you can truly understand each other."
Enkidu nodded with half understanding.
Seeing that Enki understood, Fran continued, "Okay, I still have things to do, so do what you should do and don't bother me."
Enkidu nodded and stood up, but Gilgamesh didn't give up, he put the clay tablet in front of Fran aside heavily, and said in a nasty voice: "Listen, my king's birthday is next month. How about it, remember to prepare gifts for this king and Enki!" He stared at Fran's face meaningfully, and said a little viciously: "If you don't prepare, this king will have to collect it yourself. If you give yourself to me, I will also accept it." I can barely accept it!"
Enkidu shook his head violently: "Jill, no, no, Fran can't give herself to you."
Fran looked at Gilgamesh indifferently, and said angrily, "Get out, get out."
Gilgamesh stood up straight, walked out of the hall with big strides, and laughed loudly and said, "The king is waiting for my birthday gift!"
Fulan in the hall shook her head helplessly: 'This brat! '
--------------------
A month later, Fran was invited by Enkidu and Gilgamesh to participate in their birthday celebration, because Fran did not receive the budget report for the big celebration, and knew that the two probably held a small party or something, I don't know how many people were invited.
When they got there, they found that only the three of them attended the party, the birthday stars Gilgamesh and Enkidu, and the guest Fran.
Gilgamesh said arrogantly, "Do you think anyone can celebrate my king's birthday?"
Fran had already gotten used to Jill's strange thoughts, so she ignored him, and just said to Enkidu, "Will it be too deserted if you only invite me for the first birthday?"
Enkidu shook his head and said with a smile, "Jill told me that for this kind of personal matter, you only need to invite close people. I just want to invite Fran."
Fran looked at the well-behaved Enkidu, and said helplessly, "Since you want to live like a human, you can also make more friends. Don't the girls in the palace like you?"
Enkidu still shook his head: "Fran is enough for a beautiful girl."
Fran: "Although it sounds very sweet, why does it feel weird?" '
Several people were seated, and on the long table were all kinds of food and wine, as well as various traditional Sumerian cheeses.There were no songs, dances or programs, and Fran couldn't understand the difference between this birthday party and an ordinary dinner party.
After Fran finished her congratulations to the two, it was time to give birthday presents.
In Enkidu's expectant eyes, Fran took out a box and handed it to him: "I can only forge weapons and make props, and I don't know if you like it or not."
Enkidu opened the box, and inside was a very beautifully crafted chain, the silver chain was shining, and wedges of different shapes were tied at both ends.
Enkidu picked up the chain in surprise, feeling that the weapon had a subtle resonance with himself: "This is it?"
Fran smiled playfully and said, "This is also the Sky Lock. When forging this, I used some of my own treasured materials and Jill's inventory, and added some wonderful attributes and rules to it." He glanced at Gilgamesh with a smile, and then said: "Because you are already the strongest weapon, forging another weapon for you is purely superfluous, so this chain can only be regarded as an ordinary weapon, because it is against divinity."
"Divinity?!" Enkidu and Gilgamesh exclaimed at the same time.
Fran nodded: "The higher the divinity, the stronger the binding force of this chain. It can be said that this is a weapon that is useless to mortals and is only for the God of Law. It is a lock for the sky."
Then, Enki couldn't help looking at Gilgamesh, and Gilgamesh's face turned black.
Fran smiled gently: "Enkidu, if you fight Jill again in the future, as long as you use this chain against him, I promise you will win!"
Enkidu also laughed: "Thank you, Fran, I like this gift very much."
Gilgamesh, with a dark face beside him, put his arms around his chest and said unhappily, "Hey, Fran, where is my present?"
Fran rolled her eyes and said angrily, "Where does anyone want a gift?" But she still took out a box and handed it to Gilgamesh.
Gilgamesh opened the box, and there was a gold plate in front of him.
Gilgamesh's head was full of black lines, and he said, "You are too partial. Give Enkidu the weapon against me, and give me a piece of gold."
Fran looked at Gilgamesh and said, "Don't be ignorant of good and evil, can you do it? Are you educated? Can't you see that this is a magic item?"
Only then did Gilgamesh seriously inspect the gold plate, and it took him a long time to come to his senses in his scarlet pupils: "I see, it turned out to be such a prop, it really suits me, how do I use it? "
Fran spread her hands and said, "Take a collection from your space."
Gilgamesh took out a golden sword and handed it to Fran.
Fran tapped the hilt of the sword on the gold plate, a string of strange runes appeared on the originally smooth gold plate, and then disappeared.
Then Fran said to Gilgamesh: "Put the gold plate in your space, and then recite it silently in your heart."
Gilgamesh did as he said, and sure enough, the golden sword in front of him disappeared, and after a little sensing, the sword returned to the space.
Enkidu clapped his hands and praised: "Jill, this is really suitable for you. With this prop, you won't be afraid of throwing things away!"
Fran said coolly on the side: "That's right, I don't have to worry about you ending up poor because of littering."
Gilgamesh's hair was standing on end, and he said arrogantly, "This king is not poor. The word poor doesn't even touch the ashes at my feet!"
Enkidu and Fran both giggled when they saw Gilgamesh blowing his fur.
Then, Enkidu turned to look at Fran, and said, "By the way, Fran, we also prepared a gift for you."
