This time, Altira tilted her head slightly, but being an honest person, she answered Enkidu's question directly.
“I…don’t know anyone named Marduk.”
The unsatisfactory answer caused Enkidu's expression to turn cold.
"cut……"
The woman wielding Marduk's power was undoubtedly a threat to the mother, and she had to be killed. However, upon seeing the queen, who appeared to be a young girl, at such close range, her mech experienced numerous errors...
"Altila, you should leave now."
Taking advantage of the moment when 'Enkidu' froze for some reason, Orpheus turned his head and said.
Altira didn't speak, but instead looked at Enkidu, who was still motionless.
"Leave Enkidu to me, you go with Merlin."
Seeing that Orpheus insisted, Altira had no reason to stay any longer. Following Orpheus's direction, she looked over and saw the white-robed magician smiling and waving.
...It was only then that Altira remembered that Merlin seemed to be in charge of preventing the battle from being disturbed, so what was the deal with that sudden attack just now?
However, the innocent girl didn't think much of it and quickly found Merlin and left.
This can't go on...
Seeing that Altira was about to leave so casually, and while barely suppressing the inexplicable impulses surging within him, Enkidu gritted his teeth and finally gave up the pursuit.
Regardless, Orpheus has too much influence on me, and as the backbone of Uruk, if I can get rid of her here, Uruk will inevitably collapse. Then I can figure out how to deal with this girl with Marduk's power.
So... target locked!
"I'll kill you..."
Enkidu's emerald green eyes stared straight at Orpheus, and his body slightly bowed.
The next second, it vanished as a blur.
“Enkidu, you are so arrogant.”
Enkidu, whose eyes weren't even tracking the object running around randomly... or rather, whose movement was meant to confuse him, casually blocked his ear with his hand, and Enkidu's kick arrived as if by prior arrangement.
boom! ! !
The intense wind pressure crushed the earth, but Orpheus remained unharmed.
"Enkidu could never defeat me; I am invincible."
Enkidu wasn't surprised that the attack had no effect. Instead, he leaped upwards in mid-air, simultaneously waving his long sleeves, and several weapons shot out from thin air. A violent explosion of magical energy engulfed Orpheus in the blink of an eye.
Unharmed, Orpheus unleashed his magic to blast away the thick fog of the explosion, only to see a golden spear hurtling towards him. He could sense a high level of 'dragon slaying' from it, and the spear's target... was none other than Orpheus's own head!
Enkidu, a divinely created weapon, is most proficient in using not only locks but also guns!
“However, if it’s Enkidu… then I might as well take it a little seriously.”
Unfazed by the incoming spear, Orpheus smiled slightly and addressed Enkidu.
The next moment, the spear fell.
Chapter 61 King and Spear
If we were to describe the capabilities of the 'Enkidu' machine, it would be that it is absolutely powerful.
If the Bull of Heaven, a divinely crafted weapon, were to unleash its full power, it would be enough to destroy the entire Mesopotamia overnight without the intervention of Orpheus and others.
While Enkidu, also a weapon created by the gods, is not the type to excel at destruction, his strength surpasses that of the divine bull.
Her all-out attack might not have the visual effect of splitting mountains and earth like a divine bull, but special effects and strength are two different things.
Enkidu's spear-shaped thrust has such penetrating power that it can easily rip a hole through the Ebikheff Mountains, which Ishtar had destroyed. Given enough time, it could even turn the moon into a honeycomb, making its threat level self-evident.
Such an attack, unsurprisingly, passed right through Orpheus without the slightest hesitation.
"I am beyond interference... This is who I was before I met Enkidu."
Without resisting or dodging, Orpheus smiled with a touch of nostalgia.
The Ouroboros itself embodies the concept of independence and non-interference... By manipulating it, it can prevent the opponent's attack from touching it or allow it to hit but pass through... Similar uses are possible, but because it is an isolation mechanism, it also cannot attack others.
For Orpheus, it was less about keeping others out and more about ignoring them, so he manifested it through penetration.
The fatal blow, which was a simulation of the concept of dragons by 'Enkidu', left no mark on Orpheus.
"Now, when I am still 'King,' I only have feelings for you, Enkidu..."
Turning back to look at the figure that had suddenly stopped despite the inertia and then slowly transformed into a human form in the golden light, Orpheus smiled gently.
"I'll then block it."
"Uninterruptible... So, you can't attack me now either? Then, does a dignified king intend to settle this by staring at me blankly?"
Having regained his original human form, 'Enkidu' sneered with some anger.
Normally, her emotions wouldn't have fluctuated so much... but at this moment, she couldn't control her emotions at all.
Orpheus shook his head slightly.
To say they stared at each other blankly... well, they used to do that all the time... or rather, they often did it.
Unfortunately, the past is the past, and the present is the present.
"First, two hundred questions."
After being isolated from the world, Orpheus is unable to interfere with anything outside of himself... but if arrangements have been made before entering this state, then that's a different story.
"Varied!?"
Enkidu was suddenly startled. Two hundred magic circles appeared out of thin air around her, and a purple wave of magic power engulfed her in the blink of an eye.
"I never intended to fight Enkidu."
A golden key appeared in Orpheus's hand, shooting red streaks into the sky like electrical circuits.
The next second, purple magic exploded outwards, 'Enkidu's' green hair fluttered, and nearly a hundred sharp weapons that even gods would avoid appeared behind her.
"Isn't it annoying to keep saying 'Enkidu, Enkidu' all the time...?"
"Next, five hundred questions."
Another series of explosions rang out, and purple light once again engulfed Enkidu.
"I am not Enkidu... I am not Enkidu... Die, die, die!!!"
Golden light burst forth from the explosion of magic, heading straight for Orpheus's petite body.
Without Orpheus making any move, golden ripples shot out the exact same number of perfect-grade Noble Phantasms, colliding with the weapon created by Enkidu.
There were nearly a hundred more explosions.
Just as the red patterns were beginning to converge into a sphere and a golden handle was about to emerge, 'Enkidu' suddenly rushed up from the other end of the explosion and struck out with a palm.
After hesitating for a moment, Orpheus did not retract the handle, but instead reached out and deflected Enkidu's attack, kicking her into the air.
At that moment, several silver chains gleaming with golden light shot out from beneath Orpheus's feet, attempting to surround him. Orpheus had no choice but to leap into the sky to avoid the Chains of Heaven.
"Ha... so your ability really does have a flaw?"
At this moment, Enkidu's rationality seemed to have recovered slightly, but perhaps due to mental exhaustion, he was still hovering in the sky panting.
Orpheus remained silent in response to Enkidu's statement.
Indeed, Orpheus's concept of 'infinity' is quite cheating, so the talents of the other Ouroboros are somewhat suppressed, requiring a period of practice and familiarity to use.
Like the 'uninterruptible' technique, there is actually a delay of a few seconds when Orpheus uses it. If Orpheus were truly fighting seriously, he might be able to make up for this with his high-speed and precise calculations, but right now Orpheus has to keep a portion of his attention on Uruk.
After all, just sneaking out like this and then being inexplicably dragged into a fight by Merlin was already quite risky.
Orpheus said with a hint of self-deprecation.
Enkidu's machine seems to have been influenced by him in some way, but wasn't he also affected by it?
Because he saw 'Enkidu', he impulsively carried it.
However, now that we've started, we have to see this through to the end.
"A thousand more, please."
The sky was filled with countless magic arrays, relentlessly unleashing a barrage of fire, with the target being 'Enkidu' located in the center.
"Attacks of this magnitude are meaningless no matter how many there are!"
Enkidu spread his arms, and two golden beams of light pierced through the magic cannon and shot towards Orpheus. Then, several chains emerged from his hands and began to rotate around his body, blocking the magic cannon's path.
Orpheus allowed the two Noble Phantasms to pass through his body, but then he saw Enkidu following closely behind, flying towards him with his hand transforming into a blade and slashing at him.
To Orpheus's astonishment, his own body, which should have been untouched, was thus... sliced in two by the other party.
Enkidu seemed to have anticipated this situation, his expression remained unchanged, and he swung his hand down again, intending to split Orpheus into four pieces.
Frowning, Orpheus took out a golden longsword from the treasury and blocked Enkidu's attack.
Looking at Enkidu's completely expressionless face, Orpheus suddenly laughed.
"I see..."
That's right, if there's anyone in this world who can break her 'inviolability,' Enkidu is definitely one of them.
This is similar to how weapons stained with dragon blood can be particularly deadly to dragons.
However... the other party's current state.
"Still saying he's not Enkidu? It's not a lie, but considering the current situation, it's really not convincing."
The next second, their palms and swords clashed, and magic erupted.
Chapter 62: A Settlement?
Northwest of Uruk, above the dense forest, golden and purple lights intermittently flashed by, creating bursts of air explosions. Magic cannons powerful enough to pierce city walls and priceless treasures flew through the air like they were free.
Yes, it really is free.
Several tens of minutes passed, and neither side seemed to have the upper hand, or rather, neither side had actually been harmed.
Seeing that there was no way to determine a winner if things continued like this, the two stopped in tacit agreement and stood facing each other, suspended in mid-air.
