2 – Kiyome Abe. Master?

Enkidu tried to stand up, but for some reason his body was still in the middle of fixing itself. Coincidentally, call it an effect of his Luck stat.

A certain busty, brown drill curls, tennis ace, beast tamer came by.

Kiyome Abe.

Behind her was a few of her beasts who she planned to train, indeed she could've done so in her house, but her father was being an ass again and she'd rather not see his face.

All of this plan disappeared the moment she laid eyes on Enkidu.

She, as a beast tamer– or rather all of them– has a certain instinct when it comes to beasts.

This feeling came when she laid eyes on Enkidu.

True as it may be that Enkidu was in a human form, the same cannot be said for what he truly was.

A Divine Clay. A weapon of the Gods, but now the world. And, most of all he was more or less a golem.

The two met each other's gaze and Kiyome Abe was first to notice Enkidu's lack of attire. She quickly ran to him and draped her coat over him.

"Are you okay?" She asked while scanning Enkidu.

For once, the use of the phrase was legible. Enkidu looked at himself, then back to Kiyome.

He have a nod and found himself finally able to stand. Kiyome stared.

Particularly below him.

"You aren't human?" Kiyome asked casually. Having her answer at Enkidu's missing genitals. Or rather how his feet was still a skinless clay.

Enkidu wondered what to reply. He deduced the girl to be someone aware of the... moonlit world. But, it was also a fact that he wasn't really sure about himself either.

He nodded anyways.

...

Kiyome squealed.

"I found a new beast to tame! And it looks intelligent as well! Hey, hey. Can you speak? Hello. Say my name, Ki-Yo-Me Ah-Beh" She said in glee, to asked and finally ordered in a short span of a single breath.

"Kiyome Abe" Enkidu said with an androgynous voice and a slight wonder.

He recognized the girl's name to be somewhat similar to the owner of the other set of memories', the ones from the modern age.

"Are you... Japanese?" Enkidu asked unsure if he said it right.

Kiyome's eyes sparkled in excitement. For her, Enkidu was something of a super rare monster. A intelligent, human-like, golem with self awareness and most importantly, no master!

She didn't know how he fared in combat, but she was willing to bet that he was good at it as well. She had instincts like those.

"Yes! Why, I am none other than the Beast Tamer Queen! Or soon to be! Kiyome Abe! From the Abe family!" Kiyome said in short bursts of words and exclamation.

Enkidu had a bit of sweat drop from his temple (how?) from the girl's rather active and positive reaction to him.

"Now. To the point. Can I be your master?! Please?!"

Let it be known that Kiyome wasn't necessarily the slickest of the bunch.

Enkidu however, could only agree. In fact, it was more or less a natural order of things. Although the girl had no command seals, he was more inclined to having a master than none.

At least for now.

"Of course. I am the servant Lancer– or no, I am En– no, not that either. I am... Gil. Yes. You can address me as Gil. Master."

Kiyome took note of 'Lancer' and whatever the cut off 'En' was. She wouldn't pry– not yet anyways– as she wouldn't like to make her new beast feel awkward.

Soon. Her disappointment and anger towards her father disappeared as she quickly visited the shops to get him clothes.

Needless to say.

Kiyome was very, very happy to dress him up. He reminded her of a mannequin or a dress up doll.

From cute clothes to stylish and cool ones. Eventually, she finished with a moderate amount of 3 bags. Enkidu dressed into the first one and carried the other 2.

A simple long sleeved floral dress that reached over to his knees and pink rubber shoes.

It was the cute, yet casual look.

"D-Do a twirl! Do a twirl!" Kiyome requested with a slightly disturbing smile.

It wasn't her fault. Enkidu was handsome and beautiful at the same time that it can make straight people... well sometimes, bisexual.

Biologically though, being attracted to Enkidu was fairly normal as he, and his unique characteristics as a Divine Clay gave off an Earthly aura.

Which, even if humans don't tend to consider themselves as animals. Subconsciously, they still feel attracted to Enkidu the same way as animals do.

Enkidu did as his new master ordered.

He spun around, letting the dress spin along, showing a bit of his highly feminine legs and a casually done tilt of the head.

Much to Kiyome's defeat.

"K-Kawaii... crap. My sexuality is getting confused. G-Gil. That's enough for today. I-I think we should head back." Kiyome said while covering her lower face with a palm.

Enkidu swore she was having a minor nose bleed, but the ice monster, or Yuki-Onna cooled her off.

Apparently, there was a ride home waiting for her. And, it wasn't that far away.

\MRDC/

To say Enkidu wasn't surprised was the truth. For some reason, despite only having basic information from his other set of memories, he could feel it affect him much more.

As, he didn't feel anything looking at his master's rather large mansion.

He could feel being somewhere much grander and bigger. His modern age set of memories was also something of a rich person. Living on top of a sky scraper, though the lifestyle was akin to what was called a NEET.

"Welcome to your new home! Gil!" Kiyome said as she spread her arms wide and smiled softly at her new beast.

She felt a bit guilty calling something obviously so aware a beast, so she would try to come up with something else much proper to neutrally address him as.

Naturally, her arrival did not go unnoticed as an old man came out of the masion. Enkidu assumed the age gap and similar appearance to be the proof of a relative. Particularly a father.

"Kiyome! Where have you been?! It's so late at night and you dared to leave the house?" The father said as he pointed an index at Kiyome and began to scold her.

The man continued on and on, yet said girl merely crossed her arms and looked away.

"What were you even doing there?" He suddenly stopped and looked at Enkidu, from top to bottom.

"Who are you? What are you doing with my daughter?" The man said while scowled at Enkidu.

Kiyome covered Enkidu from his line of sight with a matching scowl of hers.

"Ugh. Stay away from my new beast, FATHER" She replied, adding a distasteful emphasis on the last word.

"A beast? What sort? A Golem?" He asked, now that his initial wariness was gone, he was a little curious at the so called beast.

"None of your business. Gil, come. Ignore my FATHER." She said, the same distasteful emphasis on the last word.

After that rowdy late night meeting. Enkidu quietly followed his fuming master.

It was an interesting first few hours of being awake. Everything went by fast, but Enkidu was sure that he had enough patience.

He felt like he waited for something a LOT longer before.

(He waited for Gilgamesh to grow up to fight him)
