I, Son of Tiamat
Chapter 45:
As if speaking of Aga's pain point, he beheaded the priests directly in a rage. The splash of blood and the swaying flames made the city of Kish keep wailing.
Ajia looked at the priests who died tragically, his face was extremely ugly, and he really forgot about this situation when he fell into madness. They are human beings, not gods. One day their lifespan will come to an end, and then their souls will fall into the underworld. ...
At that time, they who betrayed the gods, their souls after death will definitely be pulled out by the goddess of the underworld, and then judged to be killed by the gods of the sky...
"No, no, I have to find a substitute. As long as there is a king in Kish, then all these sins belong to the king of Kish, not me."
King, has the mission and obligation to protect the temple of the gods in the country. If the king fails to protect the temple, it is a big sin.
So as long as one person is pushed to be the king of Kish, after Ajia dies, he can use this excuse to avenge himself.
"Then who will take the blame for us?" Agja, whose eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, looked at his children. He didn't plan to pick anyone to be the king of Kish.
Because even if the city of Kish is destroyed, the king must be his bloodline! An outsider must never be the king of Kish!
So Ajia set his eyes on his children, and looked at the crazy faces that were very similar to himself, he hesitated for a while.
"It's too wasteful to let such an excellent child take the blame... eh? Doesn't this king still have something useless? Just let her be the king of Kish. Although her status is low, she can be regarded as a master. The king's blood, isn't it good to use waste." Kish, who seemed to have thought of something, returned to the palace and walked towards a certain direction of the palace.
There is where the servants live.
A pair of plainly dressed mother and daughter were sleeping in the place where the servants lived, and Ajia, who came here, kicked open the door, and the sudden loud noise woke the mother and daughter from their sleep.
Itisha stood up from the bed in a panic, and looked in the direction of the door. When she saw Aga, she shrank in fear and wrapped herself in a quilt.
Ajia looked at the nine-year-old girl huddled on the bed, and he showed a grim smile, "I found you, my child Itisha."
"King!? You're back? And why are you here?" Itisha's mother quickly left the bed and knelt down toward her.
Aga turned a deaf ear to the greetings from the woman he once favored. He kicked the kneeling woman away, and came to Edith's side in her cries of pain.
"Get up for this king." Agja violently pulled off the quilt covering Itisa's body and pulled the thin little girl off the bed.
"It hurts... I didn't go to the kitchen to steal food, please don't hit me..." Itisha said in a low voice.
"Hmph, this king didn't come to you because of these trivial matters. Come here for me, and you, don't follow me." Ajia gave Itisa's mother a sharp look, scaring her to tremble. Watching Itisha was taken away by Agara.
Itisha was pulled into the palace of the royal palace by Agathon, and then the shivering little girl was thrown on the luxurious throne in the palace by Agga.
Edith was so frightened that she didn't dare to say anything, she didn't dare to ask anything, she could only curl up on the throne and try her best to protect herself.
"This is what this king belongs to..." Agga looked at the crown and scepter in his hands, showing a very reluctant and painful expression, but he finally threw the crown on Itisha's head, and the scepter was also stuffed. into her hands.
This is the crown and scepter symbolizing the king of Kish.
"From now on, you are the king of Kish."
Itisha, who was holding the scepter, looked at Aga who had said these words in a dazed and frightened way. She said weakly, "I am the king of Kish? I am the king of this country?"
"That's right, this country belongs to you now, so you are also responsible for protecting the temple." Agga said without any shame. In order to avoid the punishment after death, he pushed the child Itisha on the ground. the throne.
"Then... After I become king, can I open the treasury so that everyone can have food?" The thin Itisa asked in a low voice.
"Hmph, whatever you want, anyway, this country is yours now, you can do whatever you want." After Aga left these words to Itisha, she hurriedly left the palace.
There was only Edith in this huge palace. Sitting on the throne, she couldn't touch the ground with her feet, so she sat on the throne blankly, receiving this incredible news.
"I'm the king..." Itiza, who whispered softly, touched the crown on her neck. Because the crown was too big, it slipped from her head to her neck.
Now this crown is like the shackles of criminals, wrapped around Editha's neck.
Wearing a crown and holding a scepter, Edith cautiously climbed down from the high throne. She left the palace with bare feet and came outside.
Itisha was on the high above the palace, and now she saw... Kish was on fire, and the flames reddened her tender and pale face.
"What's the matter... Everyone's house is on fire..."
Kish was burning in the flames, and Aga and the mad sons and soldiers fled Kish with their carts of wealth and livestock.
And the pigeons who followed Ajia witnessed Kish being ignited by Ajia, and they flew away in a panic and fled Kish in the raging fire.
Flames are terrifying things engraved in the souls of animals. Even wise pigeons are afraid of flames. When they calm down and remember their mission... Ajia and the others have left the city , disappeared.
At this moment, the seven nights who led the soldiers of Uruk did not know that this kind of disaster happened in Kish. They were resting in the field, planning to rest for three hours, and then continue their journey.
In this way, they will be able to reach Kish in Qiye at dawn.
"Lord Sage, what form do you think Kish will use to welcome us Uruk?" One of the Uruk soldiers asked happily.
"I think it should be a welcome lineup." Another Uruk soldier interjected.
Qiye laughed dumbly, "We're still welcoming, we Uruk are here to take over Kish, it's not bad that they didn't throw things at us."
"Lord Sage, you are wrong. We obeyed Inanna's orders and went to Kish to take over Kish. The people in Kish will definitely welcome us warmly."
"Hey, I hope so, well, stop chatting, take the time to rest, and have to travel later." Qiye said, and then the soldiers began to rest.
At this time, the black owl in the carriage of Qiye and Semiramis flew out. After it left the call of 'Gummy Gummy' in the air, it flew towards the direction of Kish like black lightning. .
This owl flies very fast...even a few points faster than the demigod dove!
"Xiao Hei? How did it fly away?" Qiye looked at the owl that flew away in surprise, and the Uruk soldier beside him said sullenly, "Damn, since we heard the owl's cry, it must have died somewhere. , it went to guide the soul into the underworld."
Owls are regarded as the existence of calamity, because some owls shoulder the mission of guiding souls into the underworld, so the calls of owls are sometimes regarded as the calls of death by humans.
When the owl hoots, there is a 60% chance that a dead person will appear, the remaining 30% is that they have found something good to eat, and 10% that they have encountered something they like.
The owl that turned into a black lightning speed came to Kish. It turned a blind eye to the burning flame. It opened its beak and flew in the city of Kish. Something light blue was open to its bird. The beak flies.
These are the souls of dead humans. The owl eats these souls and then transfers these souls to the underworld.
"There are dead people every day, when will the work of the underworld end..." The black owl collecting souls is complaining, this time it is no longer 'Gummy Gummy', but is indeed spoke out.
The voice that came out of the owl's mouth was a very nice female voice, but it made people feel shivering and weird, because the voice contained darkness, silence, and loneliness, just like the voice of the goddess of the underworld.
Semiramis' guess is correct. This owl is not an ordinary owl. It can be said to be the incarnation of the goddess of the underworld.
Because the goddess of the underworld cannot leave the underworld, the work of collecting the dead souls of human beings is placed on owls. She can possess any owl, and collect souls through owls, so that all souls return to the underworld.
Then the conscientious goddess of the underworld properly arranges these souls.
Chapter 108 Chapter Four
"Why are there so many dead people! I want to listen to the flute played by that man more." The incarnation of the goddess of the underworld complained, "And you are all swarming into the underworld, I am also very embarrassed! After all, the soul is imprisoned. Cages are also tiring to make.”
"I don't know if I can make a comfortable cage for you when I'm in a hurry..."
The goddess of the underworld is the real goddess! Her sister Inanna is a devil!
The mistress of the underworld, Ereshkigal, is the ruler of death and the undead.
She and Inanna are sisters. As a sister, she was thrown into the underworld by the gods since she was born. She has been responsible for managing the underworld since she was a child.
And the younger sister Inanna [Ishtar], is the mistress of the sky, with freedom and favor that the goddess of the underworld never had.
The treatment this pair of sisters suffered, one was in the sky and the other was in the ground, it was a totally different situation.
Ereshkigal, the goddess of the underworld, did not care about the burning of the city of Kish. Her duty was to collect the souls of the dead, and then transfer these souls to the underworld, so that their souls could be Rest in peace.
"But it's really boring here. They came here to receive Kish. Now that Kish has become like this, they don't know if they will continue to stay here." The owl who collected souls whispered. Looking at a certain direction, that is the direction where Qiye and them are.
The three-hour break had passed, and the owl that left had not returned. Under Semiramis' happy persuasion, Qiye had to stop waiting for it to return, and began to lead the Uruk soldiers to Kish.
Because the time to go to Kish could not be delayed, it had to let everyone start to go to Kish even if it did not come back for seven nights.
"It's weird, so the owl that likes to stick to me can just walk away." Qiye said tangled, he quite liked the owl that stuck to him, and the smooth feathers were really very comfortable to the touch.
"I declared in advance that the owl flew away on its own initiative, and I didn't use poison to scare it away." Semiramis said casually.
"I didn't say that you scare it away..." Qiye looked at Semiramis subtly and said.
"Hmph, who knows what you'll think." Semiramis snorted softly, "It left suddenly, as if it found something delicious, and flew away in a hurry."
"It is estimated that the breath of death was discovered. After all, it is the owl of disaster."
"Oh, Semiramis, don't target Xiao Hei like this, it's a bird like a white dove, so you can't give it a little love." Qiye said helplessly.
"I don't feel comfortable looking at that owl. I always feel that it was transformed from a woman... I don't want to share my love with it." Semiramis expressed his illusory feeling.
"Semiramis, I know you like to be jealous, Jill, Enkidu, Siduri... You've all been jealous, but I didn't expect you to eat owl's vinegar now."
"You! I'm angry, don't talk to me from now on!" The impatient Semiramis threw a pillow for Qiye, then turned his head away and became sullen.
Semiramis really felt that there was something wrong with the owl that liked to stick to Seven Nights, and it was absolutely the right decision to drive it out of the house, but his stupid lover was too slow, and he didn't make this owl abnormal at all. Take it to heart, and tease the owl with a smile all day long!
Beside me, there is clearly someone who needs him to tease me even more! !
Qiye took off the pillow that had hit his face. He glanced at Semiramis who was sulking, then blinked and pulled out the flute from his waist.
From the flute, the melodious song of the goddess of appeasement played again, Semiramis glanced at him, and was surprised to find that this idiot sat beside him at some point.
After Semiramis looked over, Qiye, who was playing the flute, blinked at her narrowly. Seeing the actions of the person beside him, Semiramis' lips subconsciously raised.
Any sullenness was calmed down by Qiye's twinkling eyes like stars.
The tune that Seven Nights played for Semiramis this time not only has the ability to soothe people's hearts, but also contains an elegant and light love.
Listening to the sound of the flute from leisurely, love rose up in Semiramis' heart, she closed her eyes and rested her head on Qiye's shoulder, listening to this song with peace of mind and happiness.
This man is obviously super slow, but sometimes he always does things that make her happy.
At the end of the song, Qiye stopped playing, and the happy Semiramis opened her golden eyes, leaning on Qiye, she stretched out her hand and took the flute from Qiye's hand. .
"It's my turn." Semiramis put the flute against his lips, and the warmth remaining on the flute seemed to detonate her inner happiness, causing her body to tremble slightly.
"You've been brewing wine and weaving clothes recently, and you still know how to play the flute." Qiye looked at Semiramis with a blushing face and said with a dumbfounded smile.
"Don't underestimate me, it's just been wasted for a few days, and before you got the Crystal of Destiny Music, I always pushed you in terms of rhythm."
The flute sounded again in the carriage of Qiye and Semiramis. This time the flute sounded faster than the previous flute sound, and it seemed a little excited. Then the passionate flute sound turned into an elegant and gentle one. melody.
Under such a beautiful flute, Qiye and the others gradually approached the city of Kish.
The situation of playing the flute with Qiye made Semiramis extremely happy and happy, but the owl that suddenly broke into the carriage made her smile slightly stiff.
Didn't this owl fly away... why is it coming back now?
The owl squinted at Semiramis, who was holding the flute. The woman seemed to treat the flute as a stick and wanted to knock it down with a stick.
Compared to Miramis' dislike, Qiye held up the owl with joy, "Little Hei, you will come back, I thought you flew somewhere else."
"Gumi Gumi." The owl lightly pecked Qiye's palm, sticking to him as usual, Semiramis' cheeks bulged slightly.
At this time, the surprised and surprised voices of the Uruk soldiers came from outside...
"Lord Sage! Something very wrong seems to have happened on Kish's side. Please come out and check the situation now!"
The sudden sound made the seven nights in the carriage stop. He hurriedly put the owl stuck to him on the cushion, and hurriedly left the carriage and went outside.
In the carriage, Semiramis and the owl were squinting at each other, one person and one bird now looked like enemies fighting for something.
"I know you're not an ordinary owl. Although I don't know what you want to do when you approach Qiye, if you have any bad thoughts about Qiye, don't let me find out." Semiramis, who was holding the flute, squinted. With golden eyes, she showed a poisonous smile, "Otherwise I will poison you to death and make a specimen."
"Don't look at me like this. In fact, I still know a thing or two about poisons. Even a demigod like Gilgamesh, I can poison him."
'What kind of person knows a thing or two about this, even a demigod can be poisoned! ' The incarnation of the goddess of the underworld complained in his heart, but it didn't say a word, with a simple and honest owl expression that said "I don't understand what you're talking about."
In fact, the reason why it stayed by Qiye's side was just because it was looking for someone who would not hate and be afraid of black owls, and had no other ideas.
Because the owl has been hailed as the bird of the underworld, all humans hate and fear this kind of bird, let alone the black owl.
It would be great to meet a human who saw a black owl without shouting to drive it away and gave it something to eat.
The goddess of the underworld has always been hated by others, and she can't leave the underworld and can't see the light. This situation has always made her very distressed and hated. She did not expect that she would also suffer such hatred when she came out of the human world.
So, if you meet a human who "even if you know that the black owl is a bird of disaster, you can still accept it and don't care about the identity of the bird that brings disaster", it will be very active and approach the past, and act like a spoiled child , enjoy the care and warmth from that person that has never been seen before.
Although the goddess of the underworld knows that she is very embarrassed to do this, as long as she does not do it herself, but an owl incarnate to act coquettishly and ask for warmth, then there will be no problem at all!
She has been working so conscientiously, it shouldn't be a problem for an owl incarnated in the human world to be lazy.
Qiye left the carriage. He stared at the direction that the soldiers of Uruk pointed to. That was the direction of the city of Kish, and now that city was constantly emitting black smoke.
"Lord Sage, there is a fire over there! The black smoke is very thick." Uruk's soldiers said in panic.
"It's still not sure if there is a fire there... If the black smoke is really caused by the fire, then we can see the smoke from such a long distance, then it is estimated that the whole city is burning, otherwise it will be It doesn't cause such a thick black smoke."
"The whole army is speeding up, and there seems to be something wrong with Kish." Qiye immediately issued an order, and Uruk's soldiers quickly accelerated.
Because of the sudden acceleration, Semiramis in the carriage stumbled slightly. After she settled down, she returned to the carriage for seven nights. She quickly asked, "Qiye, what happened?"
"There was thick smoke over Kish, as if a fire had broken out. Now I have the soldiers speed up."
Qiye told Semiramis what he had seen, and then he sighed, "After Inanna let go of Aga, the commoner, I had an ominous premonition, and now there is such a thing coming out of Kish. Big smoke, my prediction seems to have been fulfilled... presumably that man did something to Kish."
