I'm in Type-Moon, how can I let you bully me?

After hearing this, Ereshkigal's tone softened slightly.

"The other half is with me, and the other half shouldn't be with you either, right?"

This is a very awkward thing to say.

Ereshkigal couldn't help but think that she had been here first.

Russell felt that he was in the wrong and it was difficult for him to respond.

Fortunately, someone came to help him take the blame.

In Russell's eyes, the small map on the panel showed that two names appeared outside the gate of the Uruk Palace.

Gilgamesh, and Enkidu.

......

"Jill..."

Facing Gilgamesh who walked into the palace, Russell greeted him and then turned his gaze to Enkidu.

"Also, you are Enkidu, right?"

"I'm flattered that you know my name."

Enkidu behaved very humbly. He was a little surprised at first, but when he thought of Russell's reputation as "omniscient and omnipotent" that he had heard of, he no longer felt surprised.

Enkidu did not dare to neglect this king whom all the gods respected.

"Gil said he was going to fight you, and it looks like the battle is over."

Russell looked at the remaining embarrassment on the two men and chuckled.

"It looks like you two have become friends."

"friend?"

Gilgamesh sneered in surprise at first, then remembered what they had talked about on the way. After a moment of silence, he did not refute.

Enkidu ignored him and said humbly, "I am just a tool."

"Do not......"

121. Before the Final Battle (2/4)

Russell walked down the steps and came in front of Enkidu.

He gently raised his hand, pointed his index finger at Enkidu's heart, and spoke softly.

“You are not a tool, but a being with your own self.”

"self?"

Enkidu turned his head away, not paying attention to Russell's actions, and just asked in confusion.

"You mean reason and wisdom? I naturally possess those things, given to me by the gods so that I can better...discipline."

When speaking of admonitions, Enkidu could not help but glance at Gilgamesh, and seeing that he looked normal, he spoke out.

But after hearing what Enkidu said, Russell just shook his head.

"That kind of thing can only be said to be personal wisdom. What I am talking about is [myself]."

he asked.

"What did you feel when you were still a wild beast, running with the wind in the wilderness?"

"Freedom, the peace of mind, the simple joy?"

Enkidu said uncertainly.

Russell nodded and continued, "But at that time, you couldn't do anything except survive in accordance with the wild nature, right?"

"Yes."

Enkidu nodded.

Russell continued, "So, later, when you faced Gil who challenged you to a fight, you first judged that he was too young, so you refused, right?"

"How did you know?"

Gilgamesh, who was standing aside, finally couldn't help but ask.

Russell smiled and pointed to his eyes and said, "I've always been watching you, even though we're thousands of miles apart."

Hearing this, Gilgamesh was a little surprised.

"thank you......"

The word "father" was about to come out of my mouth, but it seemed to carry a thousand-pound weight and was difficult to say.

Gilgamesh: 105 (Thank you)

Russell didn't care. He turned to Enkidu and continued, "After that, whether it was the decision to fight, how to fight, the choice of the final blow after the battle, or the exchange of ideas on the way, all of these were your judgments, correct?"

"Yes."

Enkidu reaffirmed this and said thoughtfully.

"What exactly do you want to say."

"Let me ask you, how do you make that judgment?"

Russell's tone was calm, but it made Enkidu fall into deep thought.

Enkidu spoke slowly and replied, "Thinking?"

"Yes, thinking."

Seeing this, Russell finally began to speak.

"A person's ego, in its simplest terms, can be seen as their personal consciousness. You react accordingly to the outside world. Seeing something pure and beautiful brings joy, while seeing the devastation of nature brings sadness. This was also true during my fight with Jill."

"I don't really understand, maybe I do have those emotions, but at the end of the day, I'm just a prop."

Enkidu frowned slightly and said.

“Does the so-called self really exist?”

“It’s real, and you already have it.”

Russell looked at Gilgamesh, then at Enkidu, and said.

“You cannot deny your existence, because when you deny, when you doubt, you already exist. This is - I think, therefore I am.”

Looking at Gilgamesh who seemed to be lost in thought, and then at Enkidu who looked confused, Russell knew that it would be difficult to make Enkidu understand these things.

In the original history, Suo said, "At this moment he finally had his true self" after communicating with Gilgamesh for many years and experiencing many things, and receiving the evaluation of his "friend".

but......

His goal was almost achieved.

[Enkidu: 50 (Thank you)]

[Although he is still confused, he can feel your kindness. ]

After a moment's hesitation, Enkidu said, "Thank you."

"No need."

After taking a glance at the favorability rating, Russell stopped caring about the panel and put his left hand on Gilgamesh's slightly immature shoulder and his right hand on Enkidu's shoulder, and said.

"You two will become close friends like brothers in the future. In my eyes, you are both my children."

Add generation!

Super seniority! Closer relationships!!!

as predicted......

Enkidu glanced at Gilgamesh again, who showed no reaction, and then looked at Russell.

In Enkidu's view, Russell was a true holy king.

Along the way, everyone from children to the elderly and the weak praised his wisdom.

He is one of the few talented kings who, after developing the country and establishing great achievements, did not do whatever he wanted because of the almost unlimited power in his hands, and even became more committed to his own heart.

And now, I am teaching myself earnestly...

I'm just a prop, do I really have the right to say that?

Enkidu, who was treated sincerely for the first time, was still thinking about this in his mind, but his mouth couldn't help but say: "Father..."

Hearing this, Russell looked at Enkidu in surprise.

Rank 5: Best Friend's effect?

Then he stretched out two fingers and gently tapped the other person's forehead to calm his uneasy mood.

"Ah."

[Enkidu: 80 (Respect)]

You're even willing to call me father.

Gilgamesh, who was standing aside, watched this scene with his pupils shrinking slightly.

The two words came out of his mouth almost without thinking.

"Father."

After realizing that he had said those two words, the original tremendous weight of those two words disappeared.

Under Russell's gratified gaze, he also tapped his forehead with two fingers.

"Ah."

Gilgamesh: 110 (Relieved)

[I suddenly laughed in relief, and the laughter accompanied me halfway up the mountain.]

Russell exclaimed as the atmosphere gradually became harmonious.

"That's great! The future of Uruk may still be protected by you."

"Why do you say such things? Isn't life peaceful now?"

Gilgamesh was a little puzzled. The wisdom of gods and humans seemed to make him smell something different at this moment.

Enkidu then said, "Yes, and besides, aren't you the king of Uruk?"

“Even in the shadows of a peaceful life, there are things we don’t know.”

Looking at the sky, Russell said meaningfully.

"Let's hurry up and build the city wall. If we don't have enough materials, we can go to the cedar forest to get them..."

P.S. I'll probably update four more chapters first to make up for the day off I took yesterday...

Then I'll try to stay up late and code some more, and make up for it...

I can still write a few more chapters, but they are not very clear. I will do my best.

We apologize again and again for the inconvenience caused.

122. Before the Final Battle (3/4)

Seventh year.

Heaven, the highest temple.

"call......"

Enlil let out a long breath, a trace of fatigue flashing in his eyes.

"It's really difficult. It's true that there are so many concepts that need to be input when covering something like this."
