The expected pain and tragic scene did not seem to arrive. The girl cautiously opened her eyes and saw three figures standing in front of her.

"Cough cough,"

The girl instantly understood the situation, coughed twice in a deliberately serious manner, and then gave a smile like a young lady:

"I must admit, you did a good job receiving me safely, appropriately, and gracefully."

"I should reward you."

"However, I have some things to take care of right now, so I'll have to postpone this for now."

"that……"

The girl kept talking to herself, leaving Gudao and Mashu somewhat confused.

But before they could speak, the other party said again:

"Also, I have a question I'd like to ask you."

"Have you seen anything around here that looks [very valuable or powerful]?"

I spent the whole day writing on the computer so I could go out for barbecue tonight. Ugh!

Tomorrow is May Day, so taking two days off to rest should be reasonable, right? (laughs)

Chapter 406 The Knowledgeable Gudako

"Something valuable?"

Gudao and Mashu exchanged bewildered glances. They hadn't even managed to strike up a conversation with the mysterious girl before them, and now she'd bombarded them with such a long speech, leaving them somewhat confused.

However, when faced with the question, the two honestly shook their heads, indicating that they had never seen such a thing.

"Tsk..."

Upon hearing this, the girl's expression visibly turned irritable and disappointed.

Just then, Gudako, who was standing beside them, suddenly spoke up, her tone tinged with amusement, and asked:

"Lady Ishtar, have you lost something?"

"babble?!"

Upon hearing Gudako's words, the girl—no, Ishtar—froze, her expression instantly turning somewhat embarrassed.

She turned around somewhat flusteredly, then crossed her arms and said, trying to appear calm:

"How...how could that be! I didn't lose anything!!"

The next moment, seemingly not wanting to give Fujimaru Ritsuka a chance to speak, she summoned the bow-shaped spaceship Maanna and flew into the sky as if fleeing in panic.

"Anyway, I'm very busy right now, so I can't chat with you all for the time being! Well then—"

"Wait a minute, Lady Ishtar!"

Just as she had found an excuse to slip away, Fujimaru Ritsuka below seized the opportunity to call her back again, calling out loudly:

"Where's the promised reward?!"

"You're really persistent, aren't you?"

Ishtar waved her hand impatiently and said:

"Okay, okay, I know. I'll give it to you when we have the chance to meet again."

"Goodbye, that's all!"

After saying that, Ishtar transformed into a shooting star and fled as quickly as possible.

Watching Ishtar's figure disappear into the horizon, Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and looked away. She had to admit, Ishtar's personality was still the same as always.

Unfortunately, the thing she dropped is probably impossible to find.

However, this time she gained favor right from the start, which is much better than her initial progress.

Thinking of this, Fujimaru Ritsuka's attention returned to reality, and she noticed that Gudao and Mashu were looking at her in a strange way.

"Miss Gudako, um,"

Mashu hesitated for a moment before asking:

"You just addressed the other person as 'Lady Ishtar.' Could it be that the other person is Ishtar, the goddess of beauty, harvest, and war in Sumerian mythology?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded and smiled:

"Yes. When it comes to Ishtar, she's the only one, isn't she?"

"Could it really be that person?"

The two found it somewhat unbelievable, after all, she was a genuine goddess.

Moreover, Gudako's attitude towards the other party also surprised them somewhat.

So, Gudao tentatively asked:

"Miss Gudako, could it be that you are a Servant living in this era?"

The fact that the other party recognized the monster Ulridim at a glance and now seemed very familiar with the goddess Ishtar made it hard for them not to guess in this direction.

"Not."

However, Gudako shook her head and smiled:

"I just happen to know them."

Do you know that?

Gudao and Mashu exchanged a glance, somewhat skeptical of this claim.

"Finally, we're back connected!"

Suddenly, Roman's relieved voice came through the communication device again, but before they could speak, Roman said anxiously again:

"Wait a minute, there's a lot of hostile reaction around you, the same type as before!"

No sooner had Roman finished speaking than a large group of Ulidim appeared in their line of sight, surrounding them completely. After a quick scan, they could see that there were probably dozens of them!

It was probably their motivation from their conversation with Ishtar that drew these Ulidim over.

Upon seeing this, Gudao and Mashu's expressions instantly turned serious.

Ulydim's individual strength isn't high, but just a small squad of four was enough to cause Mash some trouble, and with such a massive number right now...

On the other side, Fujimaru Ritsuka curiously observed the two's reactions, her expression remaining calm beneath her cloak.

Not only because these monster hordes couldn't really threaten them, but more importantly, if her memory served her right, there was another important figure who would appear after Ishtar.

"If it's a matter of quantity, then I should be able to come in handy, right?"

Sure enough, accompanied by a gentle voice whose gender was indistinguishable, more than a dozen chains with sharp blades at their tips rose from the ground, drawing a beautiful arc in the air, and flew towards the horde of monsters!

Sensing the deadly threat, the horde of monsters that had surrounded the three scattered and fled, but the chains flying in the air seemed to have eyes, tightly locking onto the fleeing monsters.

Their skin, as hard as rock, was as fragile as tofu before the sharp blades at the top of the chains. In just a few breaths, the once massive horde of monsters was pierced through by the chains and wiped out.

The three looked toward the source of the chains and soon saw a beautiful person with long green hair and wearing a white robe.

Noticing their gaze, the other person released the chains, floated lightly before them, and smiled gently:

"It is an honor to meet you, Master from Chaldea."

“My name is Enkidu, and I have been waiting for your arrival in this age of gods.”

"Enkidu... truly worthy of being called a weapon of the gods!"

Upon hearing the name, Roman on the other end of the communication device couldn't help but sigh, and then introduced it to the three of them:

“If Gilgamesh was created by the gods as the ‘Wedge of Heaven’, a hybrid of god and man, then Enkidu was the ‘Chains of Heaven’ to bring Gilgamesh back to the side of the gods.”

"He is a hero with a moral and righteous heart that even King Gilgamesh could not destroy!"

Upon hearing this, Enkidu lowered his gaze slightly and smiled:

"I feel a little embarrassed by all this praise."

After hearing Roman's explanation, Gudao and Mashu smiled with relief, and then subconsciously glanced at Gudako.

Perhaps it was the other person's apparent familiarity with the times that made them want to rely on them.

However, this time, Gudako didn't say anything, as if she hadn't heard anything at all.

Is he spacing out?

For some reason, Gudao suddenly had this thought in his mind.

So Gudao looked at Enkidu again, smiled, and extended his hand:

"Thank you so much for earlier, Enkidu."

"This is……?"

Enkidu looked at Gudako's outstretched hand with some confusion, but Mashu smiled and explained:

"I want to shake your hand, Mr. Enkidu."

"Ah, so this is..."

Enkidu suddenly realized what was happening and carefully placed his hand on it.

After a brief self-introduction, Enkidu looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka beside him, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes, and asked with a smile:

"May I ask who this person is...?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and said:

"Just call me Gudako. Nice to meet you, Enkidu."

Mashu added with a smile:

"Gudako is a servant summoned by humanity. She is an exceptionally talented Caster who has helped us a lot."

"Is that so?"

Enkidu smiled and nodded, without asking any further questions.
