Ananu knelt down in front of the underworld hound and folded his hands in a lifting position.
"If you can, take this message of mine to Ereshkigal."
His eyes were focused on the palm of his hand, with a smile on his face.
"It was Shamhat who gave me intelligence, but it was Humbaba who really gave me life. She knew the story of me, Enkidu, and Humbaba. I once told her the story."
In Ananu's palm, a round seed separated from his palm.
"I know, I answered her question, but she lives in the underworld all day long, so she probably doesn't have any sense of reality, so--"
"Let me add some color to her underworld."
Under the surge of vitality, the golden seed broke through the surface of the seed, sprouted, and grew two leaves and...
A flower bone.
"This is my blessing to her, and it is also proof that I admit that she is still alive... although this statement may be a bit arrogant." Ananu said this with a little embarrassment on her face. smile.
Ananu raised his hand and presented the flower bone flower in front of the hound of the underworld.
Wave!
The flowers bloomed.
It was a bright yellow flower, trembling gently in the palm of Ananu's hand. It was not stunningly beautiful, but it was enough, because this was the embodiment of Ananu.
This is a flower that makes people feel at ease involuntarily, and it is alive.
"Take this flower back."
Ananu smiled and pushed Huang Hua in the direction of the hound.
"Bring it to Ereshkigal and tell her that this flower can be cultivated with divine power."
The Hound of the Underworld hesitated for a moment, as if hesitating whether such a "life" could be taken back to the underworld as a substitute for Ananu.
But its hesitation did not last long.
Poking out his head, as if to salute Ananu, the hound of the underworld picked up the yellow flower, then turned around and ran wildly.
Ananu stood up, glanced at the setting sun on the horizon, and then watched the hounds of the underworld gradually disappear from his sight.
I hope that this flower can bring a little more feeling of being alive to the mistress of the underworld, or...a real feeling.
Ananu didn't know how scary loneliness was, but he just imagined what it would be like if Enkidu was not by his side, and he understood a little bit of the painful feeling.
He sympathized with Ereshkigal, just as Ereshkigal advised him in cryptic words not to abandon his brother.
His and her experiences were somewhat similar, but completely different. This was probably the reason why he used his own life force to create that flower.
Ananu did not expect that this yellow flower could stay in the heart of Ereshkigal like the white flower and the red flower. All he hoped for was... .....
Forget it, why do you think so much?
Ananu smiled, turned around, raised his head and looked at the tall and solid city wall, and smiled dumbly.
Now for me, it is indeed more important to reunite with my brothers and close friends.
It’s been almost a year since I left here!
...
Gilgamesh walked to his large panoramic balcony and stretched.
Recently, I always have a feeling of muscle soreness, and my waist and neck also feel a little stiff...
Maybe I am really a little too tired. Even having the blood of God, I will feel such severe fatigue.
but......
Standing on the high platform, Gilgamesh looked down at his city-state, this rich city, with a smile on his face involuntarily.
Before meeting Ananu and Enkidu, my own rule and my own thoughts seemed arrogant and childish to me now.
...This has obviously not been a few years.
"Um?"
Turning around, Gilgamesh noticed something and frowned slightly.
"Ah...it's true."
He scratched his head and walked back to his room. Looking at the green-haired figure lying on his bed, he sighed helplessly.
"Did you fall asleep in my bed again?"
The "green-haired beauty" sleeping on Gilgamesh's huge bed is naturally Enkidu, Ananu's brother.
Some time ago, because Ananu was deprived of seven vitality by the gatekeeper in the underworld, Enkidu fell into a coma far away in Uruk and almost scared Gilgamesh to death.
After that, in order to see Enkidu at all times and confirm Enkidu's condition, Gilgamesh ordered Siduri and several female officials to carry Enkidu and the bed to his room at the top of the palace. The king of Uruk came to personally watch over his best friend.
Later, Ananu asked for three parts of his life force, and Enkidu woke up. However, although he woke up, Enkidu had no objection to where he was, so he stayed in Gilgamesh's room. , occasionally helping Gilgamesh handle some government affairs. When he is tired from the office, he goes to bed directly.
He didn't think there was any problem.
However, Gilgamesh still felt a little strange, so every time Enkidu fell asleep on his bed because he was sleepy, he would wake Enkidu up and let him go to sleep in his own bed.

Same thing this time.
but......
He stretched out his hand and grabbed a corner of Enkidu's white robe. Just as he was about to speak to wake Enkidu up, he heard the sound of his door being pushed open.
"Hey Gil, I'm back, have you seen Enqi..."
Look at each other affectionately and for a long time.
The two best friends who had been separated for a long time looked into each other's eyes and exchanged their feelings. The air fell into a beautiful silence.
I saw that the smile on Ananu's face that was unique to the reunion after a long absence was drooping bit by bit at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the joy in his eyes also turned into coldness every second.
Moreover, his hand seems to have reached into the golden ripples around him.
Gilgamesh immediately realized that something was wrong with his current posture and movements, so he quickly let go of Enkidu's clothes and quickly backed away.
"I am not the king. Please listen to my explanation——"
Gilgamesh waved his hands quickly, trying to stop Ananu, who was standing at the door and had started to move his legs.
So, what is Ananu’s attitude?
His face has turned completely dark, and he has pulled out the Key of Heaven from the ripples. The magic power roars, bursts out, and is extremely powerful!
“Go to the underworld and explain to Ereshkigal you bastard!
! "
boom------!
!
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah------"
Ah, this sweet friendship.
