Divine Beast Humbaba

After Gilgamesh and Enkidu fight, Enkidu befriends Gilgamesh. According to Enkidu, she began observing Gilgamesh when Gilgamesh was young.

Since she was a divinely made weapon, Enkidu would always observe Gilgamesh, but Gilgamesh didn't care, and said, "If you want to see it, watch it," then he didn't care about this anymore.

Yes, this "she" refers to Enkidu.

After all, Enkidu was made as a god-made weapon, so Enkidu was a genderless clay figure, but because of Wu Ming suggestion, "Enkidu as a woman is also a good choice, after all, little En is very beautiful".

Enkidu face turned red, that night, Enkidu started a female body transformation with reference to Gilgamesh. Wu Ming didn't want to admit that Enkidu blush made his heart beat faster.

At the same time, during Enkidu life in Uruk, Wu Ming and Rimat Ninsun met once, mainly because he needed to know the intentions of the gods for Enkidu actions.

Rimat Ninsun only said that she wouldn't care about Enkidu for now, and Wu Ming didn't ask anymore.

Wu Ming knew that the gods must have made some plans secretly, just in case, he also started his own plans.

In the morning of a certain day, Wu Ming showed the oracle to the stone statue of the Sage Dragon and summoned King Uruk Gilgamesh to the Temple of the Sage Dragon.

After that, in the eyes of the revered ones, Gilgamesh walked into the Temple of the Sage Dragon which was rebuilt after the battle of Gilgamesh and Enkidu.

However, the previous altar was nearly destroyed, so Gilgamesh said, "Rebuild the temple." Under the worship of the people, Wu Ming used the Primodial Runes to directly build a temple.

Under Enkidu leadership, Gilgamesh came to the stone statue of the Sage Dragon. The two of them stood before the stone statue of the Sage Dragon in the sacrificial hall. She impatiently asked why they had been summoned here.

"Hey~ Sage Dragon, what can you do with me."

Wu Ming showed the shadow of the stone statue, looked at Gilgamesh and Enkidu, both full of affection.

"It seems that after little En became a girl, your feelings improved a lot~" Wu Ming laughed.

"Stop talking nonsense, and quickly explain why."

Gilgamesh interrupted Wu Ming with a roar.

"Yah~ Gil, don't be so mean to the Maste Sage Dragon." Enkidu coaxed her from the side.

"Hmph, Enkidu, you don't know the nature of this person, you'll find out once you understand it." Gilgamesh said without admitting defeat.

"Ahem~ The main reason for calling you today is Gil and your kingdom," said Wu Ming.

"Because I?"

"Because of the kingdom?"

Wu Ming floated in the air and continued.

"Well, since the last time Gil fought little En, you both suffered a 'big loss', but little En was able to recover on its own, and Gil, your treasure couldn't increase."

"Yes, when I was searching for my Noble Phantasm, I found that the Noble Phantasm merged with the forest beast. That animal is a jungle animal named humbaba."

"I would like to ask you to defeat humbaba and reclaim my Noble Phantasm. After recycling, the treasures held by Humbaba will also become uninhabited, which can supplement the Gate of Babylon."

"The cedar forest where humbaba is located has a lot of wood. Gathering large amounts of wood in such environmentally damaging conditions only leaves Uruk short of wood."

After Wu Ming spoke, Gilgamesh and Enkidu looked at each other and looked surprised.

Wu Ming did not speak, but waited quietly.

For a moment, Enkidu asked.

"Lord Sage Dragon, you… well, something called Noble Phantasm… Does that matter to you?"

Enkidu asked with big watery eyes.

"Yes, Sage Dragon, is Noble Phantasm that important? Is it as important as my treasure?" Gilgamesh asked with a strange look.

"Don't you know what a Noble Phantasm is!" Wu Ming was slightly surprised. It didn't make sense that the two of them didn't know about it.

"That…that, when I was born as a weapon, my godfather and godmother didn't tell me about the 'Noble Phantasm, I only know the name."

For some reason, Enkidu always blushed in front of Wu Ming, who was so adorable.

"Things like Noble Phantasm should be my treasure, do you want me to give you some?" Gilgamesh asked.

"The so-called Noble Phantasm is a weapon praised in the legends of heroes. In truth, frankly, it was a weapon with a strange or powerful ability. Although most Noble Phantasms are weapons, there are also Noble Phantasms which are abilities."

"Isn't that the same nature as my treasure?" Gilgamesh waved his hand, saying very dully.

"Uh~ Actually, if you become a hero, your weapon abilities and the like will become Noble Phantasm, and will probably be passed down to future generations."

"Huh! All the treasures in the world belong to the hero king. Nothing like yours at all."

Despite Gilgamesh tsundere, Wu Ming said to Enkidu.

"Little En, I thought you might have friendship with humbaba but that Noble Phantasm is very important to me. This is my first Noble Phantasm. It was given to me by my teacher. I'll give you another Noble Phantasm."

"I give this Noble Phantasm to you. If you can, be more compassionate when dealing with humbaba. After all, humbaba has kept my Noble Phantasm and is not used by bad people, and is not used carelessly. I'm still very grateful to him."

"Well, I see, Lord Sage Dragon, I will definitely help you carry your Noble Phantasm."

"Hey hey hey, what are you whispering, I'm still here!" said Gilgamesh a little angry.

"Without delay, I will entrust my other Noble Phantasms to you."

With that, Wu Ming shadow disappeared. In the large stone palace in the mountains not far from Uruk, he opened his dragon mouth, and a silver knight sword flew out. With starlight, like a shooting star, the sword flew into the Hall of Sacrifice, and landed in Enkidu hand.

"This is my second Noble Phantasm, Exsilver [Silver Meteor]. Use it to defeat humbaba, my warrior."

A silent voice penetrated the palace and entered the ears of Gilgamesh and Enkidu.

"Leave it to us, Sage Dragon (Mentor)."

After Gilgamesh and Enkidu said in unison, they began their journey to the Cedar Grove. In a place where they could not see, a giant dragon quietly followed them in human form, and the adventure began.

Translator note: in this chapter it is mentioned that Enkidu has chosen the female gender, so from now on Enkidu will use the word [She]
