My Destiny Illustrated Book of the Moon

Chapter 771 The Determination of the Second Generation of Heaven's Lock

Do not understand.

There are so many things that are beyond comprehension.

For the newly born clay doll, everything it encountered was too difficult.

In just a blink of an eye, he became the enemy of the whole world. Not only the old humans who were still unwilling to give up resistance, but even the brothers and sisters who he thought he could trust showed their ferocious fangs to him.

In the end, even the 'meaning of existence' is lost.

"Lord Enkidu, please let us heal your wounds..."

"do not come!"

The green-haired boy pushed hard, but only forced the witch who was approaching him to take a few steps back. He looked at the arms that were covered in dust, stunned for a long time, and finally laughed mockingly.

"Abandoned by the Creator, I have no place to go from the very beginning... After all, I am just an imposter."

After being exploited for all their usefulness, they were ruthlessly abandoned. Fighting as the children of the Mother Goddess was just wishful thinking from the very beginning.

It was nothing more than a container for the Holy Grail. After the Holy Grail was taken away, the only option left was self-destruction.

"I don't understand... why, mother... why can't I hear your voice... why are all my brothers such monsters..."

Covering his face with his hands, Jin Gu let out an uncontrollable sob, but under the horrified gaze of the witches, his arms made slight sounds, and his wrists, forearms, elbows, and upper arms broke one after another, revealing the boy's wide-open, desperate purple eyes.

He just stared blankly into space, not even noticing a graceful figure in white walking up to him and sitting next to him.

But when the familiar warm breath that he had only felt when he was born passed along his torso, the boy woke up from the chaos.

"Mother?!"

Regardless of his body which was as fragile as a dead branch, Jin Gu turned his head suddenly and saw a girl in white clothes and skirt holding his shoulders. Just a simple touch curbed his collapsing body.

"You are not my mother..." Looking at the girl's clear starry eyes, Jin Gu asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

The girl pursed her lips, and after a moment she spoke in a low voice:
"Mother doesn't want her child to get hurt."

"What do you mean?" Jin Gu frowned slightly, and heard the girl exuding a maternal temperament continue to say:

"So, she took the initiative to turn off the sound."

!!!

Jin Gu's eyes widened as if he realized something, his breathing stagnated, and the temple suddenly became quiet, with only the girl's pleasant, slightly sad voice echoing.

“Those Rahmu are not our children.”

"They are the product of hatred, so there is no intelligence."

"Who... are you?!" Jin Gu became excited. He ignored the witches' attempts to stop him and struggled to turn around and take a good look at the girl sitting next to him. "Why do you know so much? Obviously, no one else knows my mother better than me!"

Hearing Jin Gu's question, the girl pursed her lips in grievance. Just as she was about to speak, a voice came from outside the door, with a smile in its indifference.

"Oh my, it seems I came at the right time. I'm almost dying, my stupid brother."

The voice seemed to come from his own mouth, causing Jingu to freeze in place. When he turned his purple eyes, the murderous intent in his eyes instantly filled the entire divine tower.

"Enki...du!"

Golden ripples broke through the space, and slender divine chains shot out. Facing the murderous intent coming towards him, the young man with cyan eyes just smiled and blinked, and the same light golden chains cut through the air and collided with each other. Only a clear ding sound was heard, and the latter pierced through the former directly, and still pounced on the motionless Jingu with undiminished momentum, the chain wrapped around his neck, the sharp edge flickered, and touched his cheek "intimately".

Feeling the cold touch, Jin Gu clenched his teeth and stared stubbornly at the twin brothers at the door. The girl next to him screamed softly and reached out to try to remove the chain, but the special effect of the Heavenly Chain bounced it off. The girl covered her burning palm and looked at the boy at the door with tears in her eyes:

"Enkidu, bad."

"Mother, I..." Enkidu smiled bitterly, "I'm sorry."

"Enkidu!" Jin Gu was tied up but still refused to give up. Like a mad trapped beast, he desperately squeezed out his strength, trying to kill the boy who looked like him. Seeing this, the clay doll in white clothes and green eyes frowned and looked at his nominal brother:

"Why are you fighting me?"

"Do I even need to ask? Of course it's to prove that I'm the strongest! This way I can..." Jin Gu suddenly paused and muttered subconsciously, "This way I can..."

"You will be able to become the only child by your mother's side." The golden-haired King of Uruk pushed the door open with a teasing smile, "But so what? Tiamat has already abandoned you."

"Gil-Gam-Me-Sh-!!!"

Compared to Enkidu, Jingu pronounced the name with more gritted teeth. He wanted to rush forward desperately and punch the guy with the hateful smile on his face, but the chains of heaven betrayed him and tied him to the sickbed, unable to move.

"Damn it, what are you doing over there, so proud of?" Jingu roared, trying to prop up his upper body, but as a dull tearing sound was heard, Enkidu blinked, walked forward quickly, and challenged the general.

The dust was blown up by the strong wind, and everyone discovered that Jin Gu's legs had been broken at the root, and even his waist was rapidly returning to the outline of mud.

"Ah!" The girl cried out in fear. Before Jin Gu collapsed further, she climbed onto the bed using her hands and feet, hugged his remaining upper body, and closed her eyes.

The milky white starlight illuminates the room.

With the extremely reassuring touch, Jin Gu calmed down little by little. He lowered his head to look at the girl lying on his chest, and the limbs that had stopped breaking and even began to grow slowly. His pupils contracted and his lips trembled violently.

"You...you saved me? But...why? Am I not your enemy?"

"Jin Gu..." The girl opened her eyes, her star-like eyes were bright and gentle, "You said that no one knows mom better than you."

She laughed: "Mom is very happy when you say that."

"Mother?!" Jin Gu finally realized a possibility. An expression of disbelief appeared on his face, and even his voice trembled. "You... could it be that..."

An index finger was raised and gently pressed against his lips, stopping him from speaking.

"You said you like mom, and mom is very happy." Xiaoti's mother raised her delicate face and said seriously, "But your personality makes mom very unhappy." !!!

Obviously, he was a combat weapon that would not be moved even by the destruction of the world, but when he heard these words without much blame, Jin Gu suddenly felt a huge sense of uneasiness and guilt in his heart. He almost subconsciously said:
"I'm sorry, mother..."

"It's okay." With the fragrant breeze blowing on her face, Xiaoti's mother opened her arms and gently hugged the purple-eyed Jin Gu, "You too, my child."

Just one sentence easily broke Jin Gu's defense. He leaned his head on Xiaoti's mother's shoulder, as if he wanted to release all his grievances, and let out a low growl and cry that had been suppressed for a long time.

Tears wet the girl's white dress. Xiaoti's mother's expression became more gentle. She gently stroked Jingu's back: "Be good, don't cry, don't cry..."

Sticking close to Jin Gu, she whispered, "If there is no one to rely on, can you please fight for your mother?"

"Yeah, yeah!" Jin Gu nodded desperately, and his newly grown hands tightly grasped Xiaoti's mother's dress, refusing to let go.

It was like a helpless child finally returning to his mother.

"I'm so envious." Enkidu looked at this harmonious scene with twinkling eyes, "It's like hugging my mother like this."

"Here." Gilgamesh next to him opened his arms and generously showed his abdominal muscles and chest muscles to his friends, "My arms are no worse than your mother's, and you can ask for as much as you want."

"Gilgamesh." Xiaoti's mother turned around at some point and wrinkled her nose in displeasure. "No, you are not allowed to snatch my child."

"Puchi." Enkidu suddenly laughed out loud, and Gilgamesh withdrew his hand awkwardly. He dared not say anything in the face of his mother's majesty. He could only snort coldly to save his face, and then decisively changed the subject.

"The cook is right. As long as my mother is present, it will be easy to convince Jin Gu."

"She is my mother after all. As a child, who would refuse her kindness?" Enkidu said with a smile. "By the way, Gil, should I give 'that thing' to my brother?"

"Are you calling your brother so soon?" Gilgamesh glanced at his best friend, but did not refuse. Instead, he reached into the King's treasury and took out a large cup that was glowing with golden light. The thick magic power spread out and soon attracted the attention of Tintin and King.

"Is this the Holy Grail?" Jin Gu subconsciously showed a look of desire, but quickly restrained himself and looked away. Seeing this, Gilgamesh showed a weird smile and threw the Holy Grail casually, hitting Jin Gu's chest and melting into it.

"What—hey, hey, hey!"

"Oh, you actually used the Holy Grail as a heart. It seems that the Great Cup of Uruk is still useful." Gilgamesh said in surprise, but Kingu did not show any gratitude. Instead, he stood up suddenly as if he was insulted, pointed at Gilgamesh and asked:

"Why? Why do you do this? Even if I am willing to fight for my mother, it has nothing to do with you!" Tiamat's mother pulled Kingo worriedly, but Kingo remained unmoved. "He is not your Enkidu! Not even his brother or anything - he is just a puppet created by Tiamat with a different heart placed in him!"

"That's right, you are not Enkidu, but someone else who uses his body." Gilgamesh faced Kingu's angry face and said calmly, "But even so, you are still my protection - no, my friendship."

"What—" Facing Gilgamesh's words, Kingu's eyes widened as if he couldn't understand. Seeing this, the King of Uruk sighed and suddenly raised his voice:

"Don't you understand if I don't explain it to you, you big fool! Even if your hearts are different and your souls are different! Your body is still the only Heaven's Chain on earth! It's only natural that I care about you!"

After exchanging glances with the smiling green-haired beauty and looking away, Gilgamesh shouted at Kingo, "After all, you are like the successor of my most trusted weapon in the past! Why not show some partiality to me?"

"..." Jingu was completely speechless and stood there in a daze, while Enkidu chuckled and looked at his best friend jokingly.

"Is it really just a weapon, Jill?"

"I have many names for you." Gilgamesh turned his head away inconspicuously. "If you want, you can choose any one."

"Really?" The clay doll in white had its hands behind its back, looking playful like a young girl and innocent like a young boy. "Then I will become very greedy."

"Hmph." Wang raised the corner of his mouth, "Whatever you want."

"……" While the two were flirting, Jin Gu kept his eyes dazed, feeling as bright as a 1,000-watt light bulb. Although Xiaoti's mother covered her face with her hands, a pair of sparkling eyes showed through her fingers.

"Enkidu, Gilgamesh, shame on you."

"Oh no, I didn't expect that I would be distracted." Gilgamesh slapped his forehead and turned to look at Kingo, "How about it, second-generation clay doll, do you want to come with us?"

"Humph." Hearing Gilgamesh's invitation, Kingu snorted subconsciously and bared his teeth at him, "I'm not Enkidu. I will only fight for my mother."

"That's enough." Gilgamesh nodded in satisfaction, not caring about Kingo's hypocrisy. "I'll introduce you to Siduri later. I'm looking forward to Siduri's reaction."

"Speaking of Siduri, is she okay?" Enkidu was also concerned about this smart woman. "After all, Jill, you have seen her future..."

"The future can be changed." Gilgamesh was not panicked at all. If anyone asked the reason, it was naturally the breath that left with Siduri.

"Besides, there was a guy who would never give up the butter cake that Siduri made herself."

"Oh my." Enkidu naturally knew who his best friend was talking about, "He was clearly speaking of a tense relationship with the Master just now."

"Oh, you're so long-winded!" Gilgamesh rarely showed an embarrassed expression, "Damn it, which side are you from..."

Unconsciously, the two of them once again forgot the existence of the people around them. Jin Gu watched them, feeling the inexplicable emotions flowing through his body, and couldn't help but cover his chest.

"Do you want to go with them?" Xiaoti's mother asked sympathetically, but Jin Gu just shook his head.

"No, that's not necessary." The purple-eyed boy smiled and looked at Xiaoti's mother softly. "Now that things have come to this, I have let it go. This feeling does not belong to me, but to Enkidu, and to my brother's wish."

His palm moved from his chest to his heart, where the new Holy Grail continuously output magic power, rapidly replenishing his injuries and vitality.

But what can be filled in silence is more than just this life.

"I already have something better than that, Mother."

Jin Gu leaned down and kissed the back of the girl's hand, his expression happy and peaceful: "I am your child, mother. I will share your anger and smile with your joy - this is the life I have decided."

It was not about swearing allegiance to the beast that subverted human civilization, but about giving everything to his true mother, to the kind and gentle girl who was unwilling to hurt humans.

Such happiness.

This is the path chosen by the second generation of Heaven's Chain, a life named 'Jin Gu'.
