Gilgamesh in DxD

Chapter 136

Chapter 136

"So it really is Ishtar" said Enkidu with a nod.

The next moment Ishtar came out from inside the hole in the wall with an angry expression.

"Damned if you're alive I'll kill you" said Ishtar before increasing her divine aura with Enkidu doing the same thing.

In a moment when they were about to face each other chains appeared from golden ripples around them binding them and sealing their divinities.

Both men's eyes widened at this and they turned their gaze to Gilgamesh.

They regretted their decision in the same instant as Gilgamesh was looking at them with his crimson eyes glowing in power making them both swallow dry.

"Ishtar if you try anything with Enkidu I will make sure to kill you and I don't mind going to war with the Sumerian Pantheon" Gilgamesh said to Ishtar who nodded quickly, Gilgamesh turned his gaze to Enkidu, "Calm down"

Gilgamesh knew that his friend was angry with Ishtar and disliked the Goddess because of the things she had done.

They both nodded and Gilgamesh undid his chains and Ishtar sat down beside his sister and Enkidu stood behind Gilgamesh alert.

"I will not ask how he is here, for you would surely not reveal" said Ereshkigal to Gilgamesh who nodded.

"Then what was the reason for the visit?" asked Gilgamesh.

"We have a proposal for you, from our father" spoke Ereshkigal calmly.

Gilgamesh raised an eyebrow in doubt.

"He would like to invite you to join our Faction" Ereshkigal said to him, though personally she didn't think he would accept.

"And refusing is not an option..." any speech Ishtar spoke died in her throat as she looked at Enkidu who was standing behind Gilgamesh.

The Weapon of the Gods had a serious look on his face with a smile so gentle it seemed cruel as Enkidu's chains began to appear at his side as he made a beheading sign as if Ishtar had said the wrong thing.

Both the Goddess of War and the Goddess of Death, especially Ishtar were breaking into a cold sweat at this as they knew that Enkidu's power was greater than theirs.

Gilgamesh turned his gaze to Enkidu and saw his friend normal and smiling amiably.

He turned his gaze to Ishtar and asked:

"What had you said?" asked Gilgamesh.

"Nothing" said Ishtar quickly.

Gilgamesh turned his gaze to them and answered.

"I refuse your proposal" said Gilgamesh to Ishtar who was surprised, although Ereshkigal already seemed to know that he would refuse.

"Why?" asked Ishtar as she stood up.

"I will give you something better" Gilgamesh said to her.

Gilgamesh put his two hands together and created a great amount of aura making everyone's eyes widen at the feeling of such power.

Gilgamesh passed the message of what he wanted to do to Arashi.

{Well, this is something complicated even for me, but if you put in a little of the power of the golden sword, it might work," said Arashi.

When all Gilgamesh's aura and concentration dissipated he opened his hand and a small green seed was revealed there.

Gilgamesh held it out to Ereshkigal.

"When you arrive in Kur plant it" Gilgamesh said softly.

Ereshkigal looked in doubt before speaking.

"Nothing will be born, no kind of life can exist in Kur and therefore she would die the moment I put her in the ground" said Ereshkigal as he informed him.

"Trust me" said Gilgamesh to Ereshkigal.

The Goddess of the Underworld looked at him for a moment before nodding.

Ereshkigal took the seed and stored it in his clothes before turning to Ishtar.

"Let's go. It's about time Father must be worried" Ereshkigal said to his sister who nodded.

Ishtar used her magic to put away all her jewelry and turned to Ereshkigal who created a teleportation circle.

"We will transmit your answer" Ereshkigal said before she and her sister disappeared.

After that Gilgamesh leaned back on the couch and sighed.

"I am surprised that you gave her things" said Enkidu as he sat down next to Gilgamesh.

"The world has its mysteries" said Gilgamesh.

Gilgamesh had given the treasure to Ishtar to see if the Goddess would stop bothering him, for surely she would come back to bother him because she thought she was superior because she was a goddess.

For Ereshkigal, on the other hand, it was more personal.

Ereshkigal is one of Gilgamesh's favorite characters, and even though she is in a universe other than Fate's, that doesn't change.

So he was happy if he could help her.

The tranquility if Gilgamesh and Enkidu was cut short by Mordred who almost burst through the door when she and everyone else returned.

Gilgamesh smiled as he saw everyone laughing and enjoying themselves again.
