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

But it has also fully expressed the seriousness of the matter.

Nanna looked at Russell with concern.

"Seven is a magic number."

Russell did not answer Nanna's question first, nor did he just say wait and see as he usually did. He just said this first.

Then he made a promise.

"Next year, I will take action."

next year......

Nanna was still a little uneasy, but nodded.

At least, Lugalbanda made a promise.

114. Rank of Gilgamesh (3/5)

So far, Lugalbanda has never broken his promise.

Nanna thought so, but was still a little confused.

"Everything has been arranged. Uruk is on track, even on a fast track. Even if you rest in the underworld, it won't affect anything. So, what are you waiting for?"

"...Just think of it as, I always have a bad feeling in my heart."

Russell did not tell the truth.

But considering that he would have to ask Nanna for help later, he still said a little more so that Nanna could make some preparations in time.

"Things that are too sophisticated are always prone to problems, and plans are no exception. You've already made a plan that's linked together, but what if one link doesn't work?"

Nanna was stunned. The wise old man, now calm, once again displayed his extraordinary wisdom and said, "Are you worried that you won't be able to be resurrected after death?"

"No, death to me is just the beginning of another adventure, the start of another trial."

Russell's gaze seemed to penetrate the dream and look at the earth.

To be precise, he is looking at the people above and below the ground, those who care about him and are cared for by him.

As he stared, Russell spoke softly again, "What I'm worried about is the feelings of those who care about me. Let's make a deal, Nanna."

"what?"

"If I truly disappear completely, please tell those people that I'm just heading off on another adventure. Or... help them weave a long-lasting and beautiful dream."

Nanna was even more shocked when he heard this.

He could sense that Russell seemed strangely certain that something would happen to him.

Is it prophetic ability?

Nanna was unsure. He wanted to ask again, but the dream had already collapsed.

This means...

The owner of the dream has awakened.

......

When I opened my eyes, I saw the familiar room again.

Russell still sat on the throne, as if the dream he had just had was just an illusion.

But in fact, it is not the case. In Russell's eyes, the angle at which the sun hangs high in the sky and the angle at which the sunlight falls like broken gold have changed.

Outside the window, swaying leaves passed by.

Interwoven with the sunlight, it creates fleeting gilded ripples.

Looking at these lines that spread out like waves after a stone fell into the water, Russell gradually lost his mind.

He couldn't be sure whether this trial was just an illusion or something that would happen in real history.

According to the conventional routine, it should not be an illusion.

But what if something that happened so realistically, and the feelings that were so real, were truly unreal?

And if this really happened, after this incident, do those who care about him really have to wait a thousand years before they can see him again?

"Ugh......"

He sighed, letting his chaotic thoughts dissipate.

Just do your best.

He had tried before, and he had not been able to reveal anything about the trial.

However, try to disclose as much as possible.

Just go and participate in another trial, this way, at least it can give me some comfort.

If it really doesn't work, I have asked Nanna to help create a beautiful dream so that my soul can be comforted in the dream for a thousand years. That would be good too.

As for now...

Russell looked at the panel.

Gilgamesh: 100 (Irritated)

Rank 3, Rank 4, and Rank 5 have been unlocked in the past few years.

Moreover, Gilgamesh is worthy of being the identity that Russell originally had his eye on.

The upper limit of his bond actually broke through the upper limit of 100 and reached 120, the same as the two goddesses.

The same should be true for Enkidu, who is like a mirror to Gilgamesh.

It's really strange.

Like Ereshkigal and Ishtar, they are two opposite goddesses.

This pair of close friends are surprisingly like mirrors, both opposite and similar.

Kings and barbarians, treasure and dirt, civilization and wilderness...

Rank 3 Divinity - Gilgamesh possesses the highest level of divine aptitude among all Heroic Spirits. This divinity even surpasses Hercules, the son of Zeus, the main Greek god, who became a god after his death. You will receive a bonus for this.

Note: This Rank will evolve into Anti-Divinity after the bond reaches perfection.

Anti-divine?

Russell speculated that in the original future, Gilgamesh hated the gods because of the incident with Enkidu, and his divine attributes declined instead of increasing.

However, after the bond is complete, the effect will definitely evolve.

If after completion, the effect of the Rank is reduced, it is definitely not acceptable.

Therefore, it became anti-divinity, but no one knew what this anti-divinity was.

Rank 4 Clairvoyance - Gilgamesh possesses clairvoyance, allowing him to see into the past, present, and future, but this ability is reduced until the bond is complete. You gain superhuman vision, increasing your accuracy and making it possible to easily detect the movements of even the most rapidly moving opponents, achieving peak vision.

Note: This Rank will evolve into Clairvoyance (EX) after the bond is perfected.

Rank 5 Best Friends - Unlike Ereshkigal and Ishtar, although they were sisters with two sides of the same coin, they had a close relationship, but in the end they became as indifferent as strangers.

The identities of Gilgamesh and Enkidu are also extremely different. They can be said to be at the same opposite ends. Although they are strangers, they become as close as brothers in the end.

You thus gain the "Guardian of a Best Friend," which adds bonuses to the bond skills between you and Enkidu.

[Are you ready? Your child is about to enter a rebellious phase.]

"It really is......"

Looking at the description of this "best friend" on the Rank and the reminder that "the child is about to enter the rebellious period", Russell could hardly hold back.

It really corresponds.

They are obviously sisters, but they are strangers to each other and even dislike each other.

Despite the huge difference in status between a king and a barbarian, they became close friends like brothers.

And the child is about to enter the rebellious period...

It doesn't matter, he will take action.

Russell thought about it, then stood up and prepared to go to the government office.

He guessed that Gilgamesh would be there, not still helping Anhaiduyana with government affairs, but searching for information of sufficient importance in the clay tablets.

When a child enters the rebellious period, it may be that self-awareness begins to emerge, and they seek independence, perhaps even through rebellion.

And Gilgamesh's words...

I guess it's because my arrogance has begun to surface, and I've become a self-centered person who pursues "pleasure".

That won't work.

He would still respect his father, but that might not be the case for other people in Uruk.

Russell has certainly met more than just people with whom he could form bonds over the years.

Apart from anything else, he remembered the names of all the children who told the stories.

Fortunately, Enkidu had already appeared at this time.

Let Tian Zhi Suo give him a good warning on my behalf.

115. The so-called best friend is about to meet (4/5)

“This is not… This is still not…”

Gilgamesh rummaged through the clay tablets impatiently, messing up the originally neatly stacked tablets.

Seeing this, An Haiduyana frowned and said helplessly: "Crown Prince, what are you looking for?"

"Don't......"

Gilgamesh wanted to tell him to ignore him, but the person in front of him was the one who watched him grow up and taught him a lot, and could be called a "teacher".

Therefore, he suppressed his anxiety and spoke softly.

"I just want to see if there is anything else causing trouble on this land."

Anhaiduyana knew Gilgamesh's thoughts very well, so she took out the clay tablet she had prepared long ago and tried to persuade him.

"Crown Prince, this is the only one recently available. Please take a look."

After taking it and looking at it, Gilgamesh felt bored and said, "Savage? I knew that a long time ago, but that doesn't mean anything..."

"No!"

A familiar voice sounded behind Gilgamesh.

He turned around excitedly as if by reflex, and a familiar face came into view.

Gilgamesh stood up from his seat nervously.

However, his lips moved but he did not utter the word "father", he just asked.

"You mean..."

Russell didn't care about this. He just smiled at Gilgamesh and Anhaiduyana and explained, "I mean, that's not an ordinary savage."

If not a savage, then what could he be...

Gilgamesh was a little disapproving, but he didn't show it.

Although he is now gradually becoming arrogant, he still maintains considerable respect for Russell.

However, what he called not showing it was just his own assumption.

Russell, who taught Gilgamesh since childhood, is already very familiar with him and knows how to deal with him.

Seeing that Gilgamesh still didn't care, Russell just smiled and said meaningfully.

"That so-called savage you mentioned might be an opponent that even I have to take seriously."

"What!?"

Gilgamesh was still too young, and he suddenly became energetic, with some excitement in his voice, and asked hurriedly.

"Do you also need to take it seriously?"
