Pinned beneath the Divine Weapon, Naless smiled. "Of course. I’ll grant you a human heart. First, I’ll na you Enkidu. From now on, I’ll call you ’Little En.’"
"Enkidu? Little En? Acceptable."
The Divine Weapon nodded.
In that mont, the heartless clay doll was finally bestowed with humanity and wisdom.
Exhausted of mana, Naless lay on the ground to rest.
The onlookers couldn’t help but murmur in confusion—
-[Wait, did I misread that as "Please turn into a real woman"? Did I activate King Crimson or sothing?]
-[Enkidu seems genderless? Damn, that just makes it even hotter!]
-[In the Epic of Gilgash, the King of Heroes and Enkidu also fought to a standstill, recognized each other’s strength, and beca best friends!]
-[I get it now! Naless befriended the King of Heroes first, then Enkidu, forming the most stable love triangle!]
-[Hmm... reminds of that question: If you had to lie between a gay guy and a beautiful woman, whose back would you face?]
Souma couldn’t help but smile as he watched the scene unfold in the video.
When he first t Little En, it had been no different from a robot, acting only according to preset protocols.
But after countless all-night lessons under his guidance, it had finally developed human emotions—a "heart."
The sense of accomplishnt was no different from raising a child.
Souma turned to the brat beside him and sighed. "If only you were as gentle and obedient as Little En."
"Hmph! How dare you complain when you have an adorable little angel like ?" Roya retorted shalessly.
"An ’angel’ who keeps threatening to blow the apocalyptic horn and end the world?"
Souma’s disdain only grew.
At least the ani version of Gabriel only talked big.
But this one? A genuine world-ending nace!
No—he needed to add a few more layers of binding chains. There was no way he could let her true nature run wild!
"Can’t be bothered with you!"
Roya lay sprawled on the sofa, eating waterlon with a spoon while continuing to watch the video.
The most thrilling scene had arrived.
The King of Heroes finally appeared on the scene.
Standing in the distance, he saw Naless lying on the ground, looking utterly exhausted.
Enkidu, however, seed like a flower freshly watered, brimming with vitality.
The stark contrast made the King of Heroes imdiately draw his strongest Noble Phantasm—Ea, the Sword of Rupture!
This Noble Phantasm possessed the terrifying power to "cleave the world," and even he did not know its true na.
Gilgash roared in fury, "A re weapon forged by the gods dares to challenge ?"
Just as Naless had said, in the eyes of the gods, he was nothing more than a dog guarding their livestock.
The gods had crafted a leash, intending to bind him to eternal servitude!
Pure delusion!
"Heaven’s Wedge, you have defied the gods’ decree. I shall correct you!"
The divine weapon Enkidu instantly assud a combat stance upon seeing him.
It was a divine weapon created for the sole purpose of "returning the Wedge to the gods"!
Its only mission in descending to the mortal world was to question and correct the King of Heroes.
Countless golden chains materialized behind it.
anwhile, the King of Heroes gripped Ea, ready to strike it down in a single blow.
Just as the two were about to clash, Naless finally opened his eyes: "Goldie? Enkidu, what are you doing?"
"You bastard, you’re not dead?" Gilgash froze for a mont.
"Piss off! I’ll outlive you by a mile!"
Naless shot back irritably.
Then, he got up and walked over to Enkidu, gently stroking its long green hair as if soothing a bristling kitten: "Enkidu, this guy’s one of us. No need to fight him."
"My mission is to correct Heaven’s Wedge and ensure it fulfills its duty!"
Enkidu replied expressionlessly.
"Exactly! Let’s team up and give this edgy Goldie a personality-correcting punch to straighten him out!" Naless grinned with delight.
"Personality-correcting punch? You want to discipline him together?"
Enkidu tilted its head slightly, erald eyes filled with confusion.
It had only just been given a na and was brimming with curiosity about all things human.
"Of course! I’d never raise a hand against a friend—unless the price is right!"
After retorting, Naless turned to the King of Heroes. "Enkidu won’t attack you, so don’t attack it either. What’s wrong with having more friends?"
"Hmph, this king needs no friends!"
Gilgash arrogantly refused.
Yet, despite his words, he truly didn’t press the attack further.
The three of them returned to Uruk together...
-[Triangles really are the most stable relationship!]
-[Dammit, King of Heroes, why aren’t you a girl with that tsundere attitude?!]
-[Sigh, Naless’s charm keeps growing. First, he chard the girls, now even guys and genderless beings can’t resist his damn allure!]
-[So jealous! I’m drowning in lemon juice!]
...
"Naless... Enkidu..."
The King of Heroes stared at the familiar figures on the screen.
Countless forgotten mories surged back—scenes of their ti together, every little mont.
There were argunts, collaborations, battles fought side by side, drenched in blood...
What had happened to make him forget that infuriating bastard?
At that mont, the captain of the guards approached and said, "Great King, the Magus of Flowers, rlin wishes to discuss a matter with you."
"Oh? What is it?"
Gilgash lowered his gaze, looking rather disinterested.
"See for yourself."
The captain of the guards handed him a tablet.
This suddenly gave Gilgash pause, reminding him of how Siduri had once presented clay tablets to him in the sa manner.
Ti had passed, and she was no longer here.
Not a single familiar face remained by his side...
Gilgash reeled in his wandering thoughts and reached out to take the tablet.
A single line of text was displayed on it—
[Respected King of Heroes, I am the Magus of Flowers, rlin. Care to collaborate?]
"Oh? And how exactly do you propose to work with ?"
Gilgash replied casually.
That man had always hidden away in the endless tower of Avalon—even he had trouble finding him.
[I am honored to have once been publicly praised by you, deed worthy to serve as your vassal. Now, I wish to collaborate with the King of Heroes in pursuit of greater pleasure!]
"A disgusting rat who skulks in the shadows—you dare presu such a thing?"
Gilgash sneered rcilessly.
"Ah, of course I know it’s presumptuous! But this ti, it’s about Naless!"
rlin, seated before his computer, blinked in surprise.
This wasn’t quite the reaction he had expected.
Previously, the King of Heroes had praised him for understanding pleasure and being worthy of serving as his vassal.
Why did he seem... hostile now?
rlin continued typing: "I plan to assist Mordred in traveling to Fuyuki City to find that Naless Spirit who dared insult you—and then stage another grand spectacle of pleasure!"
[...In Fuyuki City, is it? Very well, gutter rat. This ti, I shall humor you.]
"Pleasure doing business!"
rlin grinned brilliantly, utterly delighted.
Earlier, Mordred had told him that Naless was likely in Fuyuki City.
A spectacular show naturally calls for more spectators.
Who could be more qualified to be a VIP guest than the King of Heroes?
The King of Heroes in the video was so eager to see Naless humiliated—he would surely co willingly and join forces to toy with Naless!
This plan is foolproof!
Just thinking about it makes the excitent unbearable!
rlin, wearing a face full of delight, continued his livestream while teasing the top-ranked shut-in doctor.
At the sa ti, he kept watching the Oldest King video.
In the video.
The divine weapon originally ant to correct the King of Heroes was instead conquered by Naless, turning it into an ally.
The gods, of course, would not let this slide.
A beast of unimaginable size descended from the heavens.
Behind it surged endless floods, while above crackled storms of lightning—all aiming to swallow Uruk whole!
The divine punishnt had arrived: the Bull of Heaven!
