"But if it was originally used in this way, then it's not impossible."
"Ah."
Ian sneered.
"So, it seems that those so-called gods are nothing more than hungry beings."
"After Uruk stopped offering sacrifices, did you start to get anxious?"
"But if you only react now, it would be a bit too slow."
"Not slow." Enkidu looked into the distance.
"You must know that the Uruk of today is no longer the Uruk of the past—your territory now extends to all locations between the two rivers."
"..."
"Ha ha ha ha--!"
Ian laughed.
"You are indeed correct in saying that."
"In my territory, there will absolutely be no one offering their harvest to the heavens."
"Oh, it seems that they are really anxious."
"Hmm... that's a possibility."
Just when Ian was feeling somewhat proud of this, a maid came up behind them. After seeing the two of them acting as if they were on a date, she decided to leave.
only……
How could Ian allow such a thing?
"stop--"
"Since you're here, why don't you finish what you want to say."
"Does this king look like someone who won't listen to a word?"
"No, no!"
After being scolded by Ian, the maid's reaction became obviously frightened.
"I didn't mean that."
"Then talk nicely—"
Enkidu comforted the maid, then pushed Ian with his hand.
"Our king is the wisest king."
"..."
With Enkidu's comfort, the maid gradually calmed down.
She nodded and quickly continued:
"King, an arrow has landed on the streets of Uruk."
"Is there anything worth reporting?"
Ian crossed his arms.
"If there aren't ten thousand arrows landing in my territory every day, there must be at least eight thousand. Are you going to tell me this about every single one?"
"No, this one is different." The maid responded to Ian in a low voice, looking afraid that she would touch his reverse scale at some point.
"We...don't dare deal with it."
"what?"
[The maid's words made you feel a little concerned.]
Thinking back to your previous conversation with Enkidu, you vaguely feel that this might be related to the existence she mentioned that was "spying" on Uruk.
[“Take me there to see it.”]
After you finish speaking these words, you arrive at your "destination."
[And the moment you saw the scene, you completely understood why they had no way to deal with the arrow.]
too big.
It's just too big.
Although it looks like an ordinary arrow, its size is not normal.
It was an object about the size of an ordinary house. The arrow head had been completely shot into the ground, leaving only the arrow body and feathers exposed, fluttering in the wind from time to time.
of course.
Such arrows naturally caused extremely serious damage after hitting the ground.
With the point where the arrow landed as the center, countless cracks spread out in all directions like a spider web, and almost all the buildings that were touched sank into the ground.
Siduri is also present at the scene.
After seeing Ian coming, her tightly furrowed brows finally seemed to relax a little.
"King, you are here."
"..."
"Sidulli, when did this happen?" Ian asked as he looked at the scene in front of him.
"It's not clear yet..."
Siduri took a deep breath. It was obvious that the scene before her was also very shocking to her.
"However, if we follow the inference, it was probably shot into Uruk around sunrise."
"Wang, with this size, I'm afraid..."
Siduri didn't continue her words, but Ian already understood what she meant.
"Are you trying to say that this was an arrow shot down by a god?"
"Just like Humbaba before."
"Hmm..." Siduri lowered her voice, fearing that people around them would hear what she and Ian were discussing.
"Siduri."
Ian decided not to hide anything from this loyal assistant.
"Actually, Enkidu, you just told me something—it seems like something is coveting the land of Uruk."
"And now it seems that it is very likely that they are those who have lost the offerings of Uruk."
"This……"
Siduri's expression was noticeably tense.
She had thought that the gods who had lost the nourishment of Uruk would bring down an unprecedented disaster at some unknown time.
But after so many years of good weather, such worries have long since disappeared.
Now, it returned to him like thunder.
This...how can it not be surprising?
"It's okay, Siduri."
Ian looked at the huge arrow in front of him, but there was no trace of worry on his face.
On the contrary, Siduri felt an unprecedented expression of confidence from him.
"This king does not consider this to be a crisis."
"It's not a crisis...?"
"Yeah." Ian nodded.
"Since things like this are bound to happen sooner or later, instead of living in constant fear, it's better to face these so-called 'crises' sooner rather than later."
"Besides -"
Ian looked at the arrow on the ground.
"As for it alone, it's far from being something that my Uruk should fear, right?"
"Enkidu—"
"I understand." The girl answered as if she knew something even though her name was called.
"No, this...?"
Siduri was a little confused.
"Enkidu, what does this mean?"
"It's very simple——"
Enkidu rested his chin on his hand.
"Since someone has shot an arrow in, we can just shoot it back, right?"
"what?!"
922. Ishtar's Love Buds/Counterattack the God's Arrow (4k)
"No, shoot the arrow back?!"
When Sidulli heard this, she thought she was affected by the huge arrow and had some hallucinations.
But looking at the almost tacit understanding on Ian and Enkidu's faces, she knew she was definitely not wrong.
Yes.
They just want to shoot the arrow back!!!
"Sidulli, do you think this is impossible?"
Enkidu asked this question with his hands behind his back, looking at the extremely serious assistant.
"Is that so?"
"..."
After hesitating for a moment, thinking that since Siduri had told him about this matter, he nodded.
"Correct."
“What are you going to do to make this happen?”
"That's easy—"
Enkidu looked at Ian beside him and realized that he already knew exactly what he meant.
"Go back the same way you came here."
"Yeah, that's right." Ian crossed his arms. "Uruk isn't the gods' hunting grounds. I have to do something."
"..."
The way Enkidu and Ian were talking to each other made Siduri a little confused.
only--
Instead, she felt relieved.
Because whenever these two people say this, it means they have already thought of a suitable solution.
"I understand."
"Then...it's up to you."
【You are satisfied with Siduri's unconditional trust.】
[This is what an Uruk-based aide should be like—the perfect assistant to the king, and also very capable.]
[With Siduri's support, your and Enkidu's ideas are gradually becoming clearer.]
[And all of this was seen in the dark by Ishtar, the goddess of Venus, unknown to you.]
