Just like he treated Gilgamesh, he called Enkidu his 'beloved son'!
After the New Year, Gilgamesh announced to all the people of Uruk in the ruined square of Uruk that Enkidu shared the rights and glory of the King of Uruk with her.
The citizens of Uruk were cheered and loved for the countless good deeds Enkidu had done in the previous half month.
......
......
Half a month later, the drunk Ishtar drove Mayanna back to the temple. After seeing Luo Yun, she fell down and stayed in his arms, refusing to get up.
At this time, Gilgamesh and Enkidu arrived at the temple because of what Rowan said the day before that he would assign them a "graduation project" today.
The moment Gilgamesh saw Ishtar sitting in Luo Yun's arms, he immediately started to mock.
"Haha, isn't this the goddess Ishtar? After being out for half a month, she clung to the teacher's arms as soon as she returned to the temple. You really deserve the title of the goddess of love!"
Just when Gilgamesh wanted to take advantage of Ishtar's drunken state to continue taunting her, Enkidu, who saw Gilgamesh's disrespect for the gods for the first time, grabbed her shoulders and pulled his friend behind him.
Since it was the gods who created him and gave him life and power, in Enkidu's mind, the gods are beings that must be respected!
Enkidu smiled and said to Luo Yun, "I'm sorry, father. Gil has been sleeping late and getting up early recently because of the issues he has been dealing with in Uruk. So he has been in a bad mood recently."
Luo Yun, who was sitting on the throne, waved his hand and said with a smile, "Enkidu, you don't have to defend Gilgamesh. As her teacher who has watched her grow up, I know her temper better than you."
Afterwards, Luo Yun told Enkidu about the love-hate relationship between Gilgamesh and Ishtar, causing Gilgamesh, who was standing behind Enkidu, to look at him with a vicious look.
Finally, in order to prevent Luo Yun from talking about more of her childhood scandals, Gilgamesh walked out from behind Enkidu, coughed lightly, and prepared to end the topic:
"Ahem, teacher, have you forgotten something, like the purpose of calling us here?"
At the end of his words, Gilgamesh specifically mentioned that Luo Yun had asked them to come to the temple when they were free the day before yesterday, signaling Luo Yun to stop talking about her dark history and get down to business!
Even after he finished speaking, Gilgamesh gave Luo Yun a resentful look from a perspective that Enkidu could not see.
Luo Yun sneered at Gilgamesh's complaint, and then looked at Enmeibara Gesi who was serving on the left side of the throne.
Next to her was a girl dressed as a priest named Siduri.
This girl appeared beside Enmeibara Geshi a week ago.
As for this girl, Enmeibalagesi explained to Luo Yun that Siduri was the one she chose to be the next high priest, and that she had talents comparable to hers in this regard!
Now she wants to teach Siduri some secret knowledge about worshiping gods, so she always keeps her by her side.

At Luo Yun's signal, Enmei Baragesi nodded and gently grasped Ishtar's snow-white arm.
"Goddess Ishtar, Your Majesty has important matters to discuss with the King. Please rest for a while in the temple~"
As the chief priest of Uruk, Enmebaragesi's status was second only to the king. Her voice was very gentle, and people could tell she was doing it for their own good and would subconsciously obey her.
Hearing Enmeibara Gesi's voice, Ishtar raised her head from Luo Yun's arms, looked at her with her beautiful, blurry eyes, and nodded after a moment of stunned silence.
With the help of the high priest, he reluctantly got up from Luo Yun and slowly walked into the temple.
As Enmeibalagesi took action, Siduri, her disciple, followed her helplessly, silently acting as a cute little tail.
After Ishtar and the other two left, Luo Yun looked at Gilgamesh and Enkidu.
"What do you think of the monster that attacked people in the cedar forest north of Uruk?"
Enkidu said nothing, because He already knew from the recent reports who the monster that attacked the humans who entered the forest was.
Gilgamesh, who didn't know Enkidu's current mood, took a step forward, made a sword-slashing motion, and said loudly:
"Needless to say, I will never allow a monster like this that attacks the citizens of Uruk to have any reason to live!"

Luo Yun not only showed no surprise at Gilgamesh's answer, but even leaned back on the throne with interest, and then continued to ask:
"Now that you have made your decision, as your teacher and one of the gods worshipped by the citizens of Uruk, can you tell me how many Uruk soldiers you will send to fight against them?"
"By the way, before you defeat this monster, let me give you a warning. It is a byproduct of the gods' creation of humans. It is a mythical beast hidden in the cedar forest - Humbaba!"
"In other words, it's an experimental subject, and a failed one at that."
"But even so, this monster created by the gods still possesses power that is unimaginable to humans. Even some weak gods are no match for it."
"Its mouth can spit out floods and fire, its claws can tear rocks apart easily, and just by moving its body it can cause the surrounding earth to tremble."
"But these are not the most important. What is important is that it is now used by Enlil as a guard at the entrance of his temple."
"If you kill it, you will most likely be punished by God~"
"How about it? Are you scared, my beloved son?... After listening to what I said, have you decided to defeat it, Gilgamesh?"
After finishing speaking, Luo Yun looked at Enkidu and added, "By the way, Enkidu stayed in that cedar forest for a long time before coming to Uruk."
"As for the relationship between Enkidu and Humbaba, I have already talked about it to this point, and you should have just come out."
Luo Yun's words made Gilgamesh frown slightly.
If she had decided to attack Humbaba without thinking twice, it was because the other party was a monster that could threaten Uruk. As the king of Uruk, she naturally regarded the entire Uruk as her property. Anyone who dared to "steal" her treasure would be punished by her!
But now she hesitated, not only because the crusade against Humbaba was likely to bring about punishment from the gods.
More importantly, there is an intricate relationship between Humbaba and Enkidu.
Enkidu, the newest creation of the gods, had not yet developed any intelligence when he was cast into the earth by Ninhursag, and was therefore confused about the tasks the gods had assigned to him.
During that time, the one who took care of him was Humbaba, who was attracted by the aura of the gods on Enkidu. It taught him how to hunt and how to be a wild beast.
Such days continued until the divine prostitute arrived with the mission of the gods. She opened Enkidu's inner spiritual wisdom and awakened his inner rationality.
It kept Him away from wild beasts, away from Humbaba, and away from the cedar forest that was His original home, so that He could step into human society and fulfill the mission given to Him by the gods!
If Enki was the father god who created Enkidu, and Ninhursag was the mother goddess who created him, then Humbaba was the foster mother who raised Enkidu for a period of time.
Despite this adoptive mother's terrifying appearance and strength.
Therefore, Gilgamesh, who was originally very enthusiastic, suddenly became silent, and she was caught in a dilemma.
At this time, Enkidu came to Gilgamesh, patted her shoulder, took her hand and said gently:
"It's okay, Jill. No matter what decision you make, I will always stand firmly by your side~' "
"Although Humbaba was my adoptive mother and a creation of the gods, she didn't actually have a good life. When I lived with her, I often heard dull cries of pain coming from her mouth. At that time, I didn't know what those cries meant."
"But after I was born with intelligence, I knew it."
"That is a cry of pain from the depths of the soul. In order to create creatures that would satisfy them more, the gods are constantly conducting experiments, crushing the souls of many creatures and kneading them together again!"
"Let these souls from different creatures entangle, bite, and devour each other..."
"At that time, I chose to fulfill the mission given to me by the gods so that I could escape this fact; but it is different now, Jill."
"It was you who gave me the courage. Since my foster mother has turned into a vicious beast, as a child, I should kill it and put an end to the pain that has been lingering in the depths of its soul for so long!"
Listening to Enkidu's sincere words, Gilgamesh made a decision in his heart at the moment he wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Then, Gilgamesh looked at Luo Yun with his scarlet vertical eyes.
"Well, have you decided?"
"It's decided."
Gilgamesh nodded, and then said in a sonorous voice: "I am the king of Uruk. Uruk is my treasure. Anyone who dares to covet my treasure will be punished by the laws I have set!"
"If the gods have something to say, then let them come to me. I will bear all of this alone. Let the gods bring their punishment upon me!!!"
Luo Yun generously gave applause and encouragement to Gilgamesh's speech.
"々' Very good, you are worthy of being my disciple. I, your teacher, am the enemy of God, so you should not be afraid of the gods either."
"So, while you are still young and can withstand the punishment of the gods, do what you want to do."
Luo Yun's words made Gilgamesh stunned for a moment.
When Luo Yun said the previous sentence, Gilgamesh thought that Luo Yun would promise to cover her.
But soon, Gilgamesh stopped thinking about it.
Because based on her understanding of Luo Yun's character from childhood to adulthood, she found that he had the habit of finding fun in people he was acquainted with.
But after he had ridiculed her wantonly, he would then teach her and give her the capital to start over so that she could accomplish what she wanted to do.
For example, when she was learning diving magic, the other party would wait until she was about to drown, then pull her out of the water and treat her, and only then teach her this kind of magic!
(Qian Nuohao) After telling Luo Yun his decision, Gilgamesh and Enkidu discussed the relevant matters of the expedition against Humbaba with Luo Yun in the temple.
Half a month later, in the renovated square, they announced to all the citizens of Uruk that they would defeat the evil beast in the cedar forest that threatened human survival!
Then, Gilgamesh took Enkidu to worship his mother, the goddess Ninsan, and Shamash, the judge between heaven and earth, and finally came to the temple of the cross, dragon and snake to worship Ravan.
After receiving the blessings of the goddess of wisdom, the sun god and Luo Yun, Gilgamesh and Enkidu set out on the journey to defeat Humbaba!
The cedar forest where Humbaba was located was a month and a half away from Uruk, but because Gilgamesh and Enkidu were blessed by the three gods, it only took them three days to reach their destination.
However, the two who entered the cedar forest were obstructed by a monster born from the blood infected by Humbaba!

The conquest of Humbaba was more difficult than Gilgamesh and Enkidu had imagined. It took them three full days just to clear out the monsters in the cedar forest.
During the three nights of rest, Gilgamesh had three dreams with different contents but equally bizarre feelings.
On the evening of the fourth day, the two people, who had been walking in the forest for a whole day, finally reached the deepest part of the forest.
Here is the entrance to the temple of the great god Enlil, and here is the ultimate goal of the two people's trip - Humbaba!
In the area of dozens of kilometers around the entrance, there is not a single tree, only colorful small flowers that are taller than the ankles and spread all over the area.
And in the very center of the sea of flowers, a huge monster was lying motionless on the sea of flowers.
If Gilgamesh, who was a thousand meters away, had not been able to hear its heavy and painful breathing, she would have almost thought that the divine beast they were about to defeat was dead!
However, when Gilgamesh just stepped into the sea of flowers, she suddenly found that Enkidu, who was supposed to be by her side, unexpectedly stopped.
Gilgamesh turned around and saw Enkidu standing blankly at the edge of the sea of flowers, staring from afar at the giant beast in the center of the sea of flowers that exuded a strong aura of existence.
"Enkidu?"
Looking at his friend who was in a daze and did not take any action, Gilgamesh called out his name.
Gilgamesh's cry brought Enkidu back to the present from his 893 memories of the past.
Then, He looked at the concern revealed in Gilgamesh's scarlet eyes and immediately shook His head to indicate that He was fine.
Although Enkidu did not explain that he was lost in the meeting just now, Gilgamesh, as a friend, knew clearly that he had been lost in memories after seeing Humbaba!
So she grabbed Enkidu's right hand and encouraged him, "Let's end its suffering!"
After saying this, he pulled Enkidu into the sea of flowers.
And the moment Enkidu stepped into the sea of flowers, Humbaba, who was seven meters away, suddenly opened his eyes, because he felt a very familiar and strange yet slightly familiar breath!
It first used its huge front paws to support its mountain-like body, and then let out a series of dull roars from its throat in the direction of the two auras it sensed.
It's calling for Enkidu!
It thought that Enkidu had completed the mission given by the gods and now returned to the cedar forest to visit it.
But unfortunately, these are all Humbaba's delusions, because Enkidu and Gilgamesh came here today for only one purpose, and that is to kill this mythical beast (daea) that endangers human survival!
And the answer it got when it called out to Enkidu was just the countless magic tricks behind Gilgamesh.
For a moment, flames, thunder, frost, strong winds... swept across the entire sea of flowers, making the originally beautiful land ugly and emitting choking black smoke.
However, even this magical attack that covered the entire sea of flowers in an instant did not cause any effective damage to Humbaba.
It even allowed the animal desires in its body to overtake the only bit of rationality it had left after seeing Enkidu!
In an instant, it fought back.
“————Ahhhhhhhhh!!!”
A roar like the voices of many animals fused together came from Humbaba's throat, and the soil under his feet was blown up by the strong wind blown out of his mouth.
Immediately afterwards, floods and fire gushed out of its mouth. Fortunately, Enkidu summoned many heavenly chains from the ground to build a wall, thus saving the two from harm.
After witnessing Humbaba's attack, Gilgamesh and Enkidu knew they were no match for him, so they began to call for Rowan.
