Dragon of the Root

Chapter 34: Friend's conversation

Gilgamesh and Enkidu both accepted Wu Ming commission and walked towards the Cedar Forest. Wu Ming who turned into human form, used sneak runes to follow the two of them far behind.

When nothing could be done, the two started talking first.

"By the way, Enkidu, why are you always blushing and nervous when speaking in front of that person?" Gilgamesh put his hands behind his head, walking with Enkidu on the road.

"Oh! That person does that mean Lord Sage Dragon?" Enkidu asked with a confused look.

"Yes, it refers to the Sage Dragon, and you are too respectful. The Sage Dragon is actually just a young who looks like us, he not as old as you think." Gilgamesh turned around, looking at Enkidu whose face was slightly red.

"Oh~ Lord Sage Dragon is still young, I never thought about it~" Enkidu big and watery eyes opened wide, looking very surprised.

"Hahaha~ How funny, Enkidu, no wonder the Sage Dragon likes you so much." Gilgamesh laughed and walked to Enkidu side, and said with one hand on Enkidu shoulder.

"Do you like it I think actually, Gil, you should just stop being like um As the Lord Sage Dragon said, if you don't "confess", the Lord Sage Dragon will also like you very much. After all, you also said that he was a child, he would like a cute and pretty girl like Gil."

"Huh?...Who wants to like him, he just a young dragon, let's talk if you want me to like him wait a few more years." Gilgamesh face turned red, and Enkidu didn't seem to know the seriousness of what she was saying, she said very honestly.

"Oh! I think Lord Sage Dragon has been protecting Gil since you were young. Gil would really like the Sage Dragon Lord?" Enkidu tilted his head and looked at Gilgamesh unexpectedly.

Hearing these words, Gilgamesh face slowly calmed down.

"How could I not like him, after all, he is the closest person to me."

And Wu Ming, who was sneaking in the distance, felt a sigh of emotion upon hearing this.

"Actually, if I count my age, am I close to 50? Well, but for a Dragon of the Root like me, I can't even count as a young dragon now."

Wu Ming smiled and said nothing, in fact, as long as one has a youthful heart, aging is nothing. Let alone a long-lived species like himself, nothing makes a long-lived species sadder than not having a young heart.

Of course, this is only Wu Ming point of view, because everyone has their own ambitions.

"Enkidu, you know, my father is arrogant, because my mother is a goddess, so they combined the two, but their union is only for the gods so that I tell the ruling human race to continue to believe in gods, and the reason for my father willingness to join is, first, for seeing my mother beauty, and secondly, wanting to continue to be blessed by the gods. In fact, in the beginning, my father used faith to wield the Sage Dragon to obtain a powerful dragon, just as a weapon," said Gilgamesh grimly.

Then, there was a moment of silence.

"Gil..."

"Hahaha~ But it's fine now. After all, I am the king of heroes. I am a great woman who wants to block the gods from the human race. Humans are not a species that cannot live without gods."

Gilgamesh smirked, seeing Gilgamesh like this, so Enkidu who wanted to say something by his side had forgotten what she wanted to say.

"It's fine if you want to open it, my friend~" Enkidu smiled sweetly.

"Then let's talk about you now, Enkidu~" Gilgamesh looked at Enkidu and said.

Enkidu was surprised, then lowered his head and said slowly.

"I..." His tone was calm.

After thinking for a while, Enkidu started to speak.

"I was given all kinds of powerful knowledge and abilities by Father and Mother who were gods when I was born. After all, I was created as a weapon. And the reason for creating me is you, my friend." Enkidu looked at Gilgamesh.

"In order to prevent you from guiding mankind to believe in gods, I was created as a guarantee. At that time, Mom and Dad put me in the woods, passed the mission, and left. Back then, I was just a clay figure. I depend on each other with the animals in the forest."

Enkidu eyes turned to the cedar forest not far away, as if she was reminiscing.

"I walked the ground, walked through many places, and met many animals and demon beasts. humbaba is one of them. As for humans, I have also encountered him several times."

Enkidu turned his gaze back and continued to stare at Gilgamesh.

"I met a human. She was the first human to accept me and treat me well. After a while, to reply to her, I changed my appearance to her as a warning. It was the first time I felt human emotions, such as joy."

As she said, Enkidu put his hand on his chest.

"After that, I started observing you, and at the same time, I also observed the Lord Sage Dragon. After fighting with you, the Lord Sage Dragon said something to me."

"Since you want to understand humans, then you need to become human first."

Enkidu eyes showed a life-like look.

"With the help of the Lord Sage Dragon, I managed to become a female human, and I started to have feelings."

Enkidu held his chest, and happiness was written all over his face.

"Although this has led to a decrease in battle effectiveness, I don't think this is wrong. On the contrary, I think meeting the Lord Sage Dragon is the luckiest thing for me."

"I will be nervous and embarrassed when the Lord Sage Dragon sees me, I will feel happy when talking to other people, I will feel happy when I eat delicious food, I will be happy for my friends when I talk about my dreams with you. "

Finally Enkidu looked Gilgamesh in the eye.

"I really like Lord Sage Dragon."

Gilgamesh sighed.

"Oh ~ little grace Sage Dragon, I thought you were really stuck in a strange feeling for the Sage Dragon and couldn't get away from it."

Gilgamesh stared at Enkidu in silence.

She really didn't expect that Enkidu would have such feelings for Wu Ming.

"Listen, Enkidu, since you have become a human, then it is your own feeling. Due to the king role, I don't have time to deal with trivial matters for now. However, if it's you, you can choose your own path."

"Choose my own path" Enkidu was deep in thought.

"We have arrived at the Tigris," said Gilgamesh suddenly.

At this time, the two of them were standing on the bank of a great river, and across the river was the location of humbaba, the Zagros Mountains.

The Zagros Mountains are home to the humbaba, a mountain range on the opposite bank of the Tigris River.

Wu Ming who was not far from the two, was deep in thought.

"Little En, I don't know if making you a human save you or hurt you."

Wu Ming looked at the parchment in his hand, with intricate runes engraved on it, this paper was the one used to turn Enkidu into a human.

After all, Wu Ming had not been idle all this time. He had studied the Primodial Runes more deeply. With the powerful talent of Dragon of Roots, he managed to create a new Rune Magecraft independently. This scroll turning into a human being is a small result of this time period.

Storing the scroll back to Dragonest, Wu Ming was in a daze, and disappeared. Only traces of the people here remained.

At this time, the two began to cross the river.
