Whistles, teasing, the sound of the captain taking off, and bursts of laughter filled the air.
But for Enkidu, they were all just average.
Just a look.
Everyone present knew.
The people standing in front of them.
He's more than just a simple guy.
The oppressive aura terrified even the seasoned veterans of Dusk Street.
"Ahem, now I'm going to tell you a story."
Enkidu coughed lightly and began his speech.
"I'm sure you all often see the rapid developments in the outside world."
But only Twilight Street remained unchanged.
After discussing the current situation...
The patrons in the tavern, who were initially a bit tense, began to have their attention diverted.
They began to focus their attention on Enkidu's speech.
I was drawn to its content.
A man~
They always enjoy gossiping and chatting after meals.
What Enkidu said was also what they wanted to hear.
He noticed that all eyes were on him.
Enkidu began his speech again...
Do you know how much housing prices are in developed areas?
Ten million per square meter, a house is at least 100 square meters.
This amount of money can't even fit in a single cart.
I don't think the world should be like this..."
Are kings and nobles born with a special destiny?!
The last sentence was like an atomic bomb dropped into calm water.
One sentence was enough to send everyone present into an uproar.
yes......
Why should we be oppressed by the outside world?
Why should they live a good life while we have to struggle to survive?
Are kings and nobles born with a special destiny?
That's right! The world shouldn't be like this!
It is neither fair nor beautiful!
Then it is up to us to end this wrong outcome.
That's right!
kill! ! !
Enkidu saw that the desired effect had been achieved and did not continue.
Instead, they left it as a mystery and said they'd tell it later.
There is ample time......
Amidst the expectant gazes of the crowd in the tavern.
Enkidu slowly walked off the stage.
I went outside.
That was the way he came.
[At age 3, you frequently gave speeches at bars, gradually gaining your own supporters.]
The church was the first to surrender to you, calling you God's agent on earth, who came to save humanity.
Your fame has spread throughout Twilight Street.
At 4 years old, you gained countless supporters.
You became an uncrowned king. But because you disliked being too high-profile, you let the world call you a general.
You will receive a warm welcome wherever you go; people will even cry or faint from excitement after being shaken by you.
At five years old, you brought about change, achieving unification of Twilight Street. Those who resisted were either killed or expelled.
You intervened to change the status quo of your power, and the basic necessities of life began to develop rapidly. Your subordinates became even more convinced that you were a god...
Your subordinates worship you even more blindly; in their eyes, you are now omnipotent...
(It seems my older brother has done something incredible...)
The nuns pray every morning.
Aponia's gaze toward Enkidu was filled with profound depth.
So many lines, and then even more lines, different from the fate lines of myself and my brother.
The threads were even thinner, but there were countless of them...
For a moment, Aponia, who was usually serious, was unusually lost in thought.
Therefore, they did not notice the changes in the people around them.
"Aponia, are you thinking about me?"
"!!!"
The next second after hearing Enkidu's voice.
Aponia regained consciousness instantly.
Perhaps it was because of nervousness, or perhaps it was because he was caught slacking off.
Aponia instinctively clenched her fists.
She didn't want Enkidu to discover her vulnerable side.
But obviously, this wish was not fulfilled.
Enkidu had already noticed her unusual behavior.
Some worried looks came over.
"Alright, Aponia, after living with you for so long, I know all your little details by heart."
You don't need to be so serious in front of me, and you don't need to be nervous just because you're the general's sister.
"...I'm sorry, elder brother, for showing you this embarrassing side of yourself..."
"It's alright. I've come to discuss the matter of taking care of you..."
"Ok?"
Aponia seemed somewhat confused by Enkidu's words.
I was a little overwhelmed for a while.
She didn't really want to leave her older brother; after living with him for so long, she had grown accustomed to his presence...
Perhaps even Aponia herself didn't realize it.
Enkidu was discussing the issue of adoption.
She had unconsciously taken a step forward and silently tugged at Enkidu's sleeve.
They looked rather pitiful, like pets about to be abandoned.
However, with a phone call from Enkidu...
Aponia finally understood what Enkidu was trying to say.
The things she was imagining just now were just her own paranoia.
"Actually, I just took you home with me; we didn't go through any adoption procedures."
I've come to ask you: do you want to stay with me or go out and gain your freedom?
"free.....?"
Aponia paused for a moment, muttering the word "freedom" to herself.
The girl's eyes, which lacked luster, widened slightly.
What the hell... treating her like a caged bird for so long...
Now they're saying they're giving her freedom... have they had enough of toying with her?
Or perhaps you're simply not ready to wait any longer?
This freedom came too suddenly for her.
As for Aponia...
She didn't know how to face this so-called freedom.
"Why... elder brother, do you hate me?"
She looked at Enkidu blankly.
This is the only remaining question about Aponia.
If it were the old her, she would never have said anything.
Instead, she would choose to turn around and leave, because to her, everywhere is the same place.
But it is different now.
If she had never seen the light, she could endure the endless loneliness and darkness.
She is no longer the Aponia of the past.
She developed her own personality and her own ideas.
The thoughts of a young girl in Aponia.
She has found her anchor point.
She... didn't want to leave.
Perhaps it was this sense of resentment that led her to say those words.
Enkidu frowned immediately upon hearing this.
"Huh? Aponia, are you alright?"
Enkidu placed his hand on Aponia's forehead to see if the child was awake.
Why are you talking nonsense before it's even dark? Is it a problem with your morning reading?
Damn it! This early morning reading program is really doing people a lot of harm!
"Why are they all starting to talk nonsense???"
But this time, Aponia had her own ideas.
Aponia gently shook off Enkidu's hand.
"...I'm sorry, brother, I don't quite understand, but what you just said..."
Aponia... feels a little uncomfortable here...
Aponia's eyes were filled with confusion.
She still couldn't understand so many complex emotions.
