Chapter 252: Torn Abs
With rlin around, Kenji and the others entered the city of Uruk smoothly. The buildings were arranged in neat rows, and the lively streets were bustling with people. Demonic beasts were rampant outside, yet the city was full of life.
"rlin, want a drink?"
Kenji took out PAIR. The thick soup emitted an endless fragrance, which naturally attracted the attention of the crowd. It was as if it could hook their very souls.
Ti to give these natives a shock with so gourt food from another world.
"Little brother Kenji, this thing... is it proper?" A trace of an ominous premonition welled up in rlin’s heart once again. It wasn’t a life-or-death crisis, but he couldn’t quite put his finger on it. It was a very subtle feeling. He admitted that this dish, PAIR, slled very fragrant, but it felt... strange.
Sigh. At tis like this, I envy Goldie’s future-seeing Clairvoyance. My Clairvoyance is only for the present.
"Of course it’s proper. A delicacy that doesn’t exist in this world... you really don’t want to try it?" Kenji said, patting his chest. It won’t kill you, so that ans it’s proper.
"Uh... I think I’ll pass. Maybe when I have another chance," rlin shook his head. He chose to trust his gut.
Kenji wasn’t annoyed. If you don’t want to drink it, I’ll just find a chance to pour it down your throat.
In the central ziggurat, the Wise King Gilgash was buried in various clay tablets, extrely dedicated to his work. No faults could be found.
"King Gilgash, the magus rlin has brought guests."
rlin spoke. The group behind him looked curiously at Gilgash. This was also Kenji’s first ti seeing him in person.
"Welco, visitors from another world. Your arrival has truly brought this king a great surprise," a delighted arc ford on Gilgash’s lips. The cards I’ve drawn before were only usable. If a rainbow-colored UR card like Kenji were in the summoning pool, I would definitely use the power of a whale to brute-force the entire pool.
"Goldie, I, Kenji, am not free labor," Kenji said, putting on a "this is very difficult for " expression.
"State your conditions," Gilgash said, propping up his forehead, already prepared for his treasury to bleed. That idiot goddess Ishtar could no longer be counted on. He had his eyes on that bull, and she had gone and lost it.
"Straight to the point. Just add more money." Kenji transford into the "Money-Grubbing Priest." There was nothing that money couldn’t solve. Even a slacker like Kizaru would work very hard if the salary was right.
"..."
Gilgash was also taken aback. With your level of strength, you still want sothing like money?
"My treasury... aside from a select few items, you may choose whatever you like," Gilgash said generously. Kenji was worth this price.
Siduri was surprised. The King truly valued this very young man.
"By the way, this is a greeting gift."
Clatter—
Kenji tossed the broken piece of the chain to Gilgash.
"...This king is very satisfied with this greeting gift," Gilgash said, a trace of complexity flashing in his snake-like crimson eyes.
"?"
When Siduri saw the chain clearly, her pupils quaked. Isn’t this Enkidu’s Chains of Heaven? How is it in Kenji’s hands? Could it be... could it be that Kenji dug up Enkidu’s grave?
Siduri began to imagine things. The corner of Gilgash’s mouth twitched, and he said helplessly, "Siduri, this matter has nothing to do with Kenji. I am already aware of it."
"BOOM!"
A loud roar thundered. The ceiling was pierced, and the rather scantily-clad Ishtar made her appearance again.
"Eeeh! It’s you guys!"
Seeing Kenji and his group, Ishtar couldn’t help but cry out in surprise. What kind of luck was this? To run into them even here. Was it truly a case of "fate brings people together from a thousand miles away"?
"Why is it you again, you incompetent, idiotic goddess," Gilgash directly launched a taunt attack. You can’t even keep track of the Bull of Heaven. What use are you?
"What did you say, Goldie?!" Ishtar glared at Gilgash.
"Didn’t you hear clearly?"
"Is Gugalanna, the Bull of Heaven, still around?" Gilgash asked playfully.
"Ah... ababa..."
The aggressive Ishtar was now like a frost-bitten eggplant, completely deflated. Her eyes held three-tenths embarrassnt, three-tenths guilt, and four-tenths sha, forming a perfect pie chart.
"Hahaha... Incompetent goddess, you’re so amusing! You always manage to make this king laugh! Hahaha... my abs are going to tear from laughing so hard!" Gilgash’s lips curved upwards as he let out a demonic, joyous laugh.
The guards had already left. Siduri looked at Ishtar in this state, her mouth open, not knowing what to say. That was such a big bull. Your Ladyship, how did you lose it? She didn’t understand!
"Um... I’m looking for it..." Ishtar’s cheeks flushed, and her toes curled in sha, as if trying to carve the shape of Gugalanna into the floor.
"I’d like to ask, is Gugalanna’s body very large?" Gudako asked, raising her hand curiously.
"Ritsuka, it is said that the body of the Bull of Heaven, Gugalanna, is as massive as a mountain peak. A conservative estimate would be over a hundred ters. When it tramples the earth, it can cause earthquakes," Da Vinci explained.
"At least thirty stories high, and the sound of it walking is super loud..."
"Your Ladyship, how did you lose such a big bull?" Gudako asked the soul-searching question. This was just too ridiculous. And even if she had accidentally lost it, how could she not find such an easy target by now?
"I don’t know! When I realized it, I didn’t know where it had gone!" Ishtar grabbed her own hair. She also had the sa question. Where did the bull go? She had been looking for a while, but she hadn’t found a single strand of its hair.
[Cautious Hero]: "Do all goddesses have an ’unreliable’ attribute?"
Seeing the live stream, Seiya was silent. Although there was no face-art, the taste of unreliability was coming through the screen. Because he was sowhat used to Ristarte’s face-art, he had so resistance.
[Stank]: "I haven’t t many goddesses, but male gods definitely have an unreliable side. Have you ever seen a God of Thunder get taken down by a taser? I have."
So funny. The God of Thunder is afraid of electricity. Then what about a God of Grass?
[Star Forger]: "Divinity and intelligence are not proportional, but the cody factor is maxed out."
[Galactic Baseballer]: "Our Trailblaze Boss is also very wild. Although Pom-Pom is happy he’s back, the number of tis Pom-Pom gets angry has increased. He roars at them almost every day."
Hiko and the others were exhausted. Too much excitent wasn’t a good thing either.
[Miss Pink Elf♪]: "What an interesting girl. This outfit is also very bold ♪"
Love it, love it~
[Gudako]: "Don’t we have a goddess in our group?"
[Lady Justice]: "You’re not talking about , are you?"
Fufu was taken aback. She hadn’t expected them to ntion her. What kind of god was she back then? Just a cursed human.
[The Champion]: "Although Fufu doesn’t seem very smart, she fulfilled the duties that a god should."
What do you an, ’doesn’t seem very smart’?!
Furina was about to go into Spinosaurus mode. Where was she dumb? She was clearly a genius, okay? Anyone who called her dumb should be sentenced to death! Not a single one left!!!
