I Will Be the Son of Man

"That's because although Mr. Merlin's race is not human, in a spiritual sense, he can be counted as human."

"I don't understand... the smell is completely different from that of human beings."

Hill sniffed the smell of Merlin in the air, and shook his head after a long while.

"This may be a bit complicated for you now, but please remember for a while that creatures similar to humans cannot be eaten."

Siduri smiled wryly, and immediately raised the question to the level of "why are people who are not human beings?" It was really difficult for the other party to understand.

"Hmm... Then, can't monkeys eat it?"

"Um, it's better not to eat, Your Highness Hill."

"I don't understand...Although I don't understand, I will remember Siduri's words."

Hill nodded ignorantly, but it seemed that Merlin's smell was too special, so he asked again.

"Can you really not eat it? If you take a small bite, you can..."

"Only this point please let me go, Your Highness Hill!"

Merlin raised his hand in surrender, with a wry smile on his face.To be taken a sip by such a magical giant snake, I am afraid that nothing will stay.

"I see, Merlin...not food."

Siduri and Merlin couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief seeing the pure white toddler eat the apple intently again.

"Then, Mr. Merlin, now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, His Highness Hill's swordsmanship instruction will be entrusted to you."

Siduri bowed slightly to beg, and then left the palace because she still had to assist Gilgamesh with government affairs.

In the dormitory, Merlin and Hill stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes again.

Seeing Hill's golden snake eyes staring at him without blinking, Merlin felt a pressure from survival instinct.

He swallowed, and then opened his mouth pretending to be relaxed.

"Then before we officially start teaching, I think we'll have a meal to fill our stomachs first. What do you think, Your Highness Hill?"

【Ding!Received fear from Merlin +1+1+1+1...]

Chapter 007: Merlin: It's No Shame

"Ah! Give up, give up! I surrender! Give up! Give up!"

Early in the morning, lively voices came from the bedroom, so cheerful that the maids waiting outside laughed softly after hearing it.

"Ah... No, no, I admit defeat! Your Highness Hill, you are relying entirely on your instinctive twisting skills, it is simply too foul!"

Rubbing his sore neck and shoulders, for a moment just now, Merlin felt as if he had seen Hades.

But to be honest, because the speed at which Hill learned swordsmanship during this period was too incredible, Merlin was worried that it would be too late, so he proposed another method, wanting to use hand-to-hand combat to buffer the opponent's learning speed.

But now it seems that he is an adult who is simply humiliating himself.

After all, Merlin did not expect that with such a huge difference in size, the other party could rely entirely on the snake's twisting instinct to instantly suppress him on the ground, control his neck and shoulders, and in terms of strength, he Still unable to break free, this made Merlin very uncomfortable.

Therefore, the ridiculous scene just happened.

It doesn't matter, I'm a magician, I'm a magician, and there's no shame in losing on that...

Hinting to himself, Merlin, who had regained his self-esteem, stood up and smiled helplessly when he saw the pure white toddler with Sanwulian eating an apple.

During this period of time, in terms of learning speed alone, Hill's talent was even stronger than that of Artoria he taught at the beginning.

It's just that through this period of communication, Merlin also understood what Hill's problem was.

That is too Wugou, so Wugou that only the basic instinct of being a snake is left, it is simply a blank slate.

What kind of posture is instilled, maybe this is the reason why the pure white toddler in front of him is learning at such an amazing speed, but this also makes Merlin faintly worried.

Because if the other party cannot suppress his instincts and is controlled by animal nature in the future, then it may be a disaster in human history.

And from a special point of view, being the adopted son of Gilgamesh, who did not exist in the original history, is already special enough...

Merlin glanced at the pure white boy who seemed to be harmless and sat back to his seat, quietly eating an apple, sighed in his heart, and finally decided to throw this trouble to Gilgamesh.

"Don't you need to practice swords today, Merlin?"

"Does Your Highness Hill like swordsmanship?"

Merlin tidied up the messy clothes on his body, sat in front of Hill and asked with a smile.

During this period of time, because every time Merlin started to teach swordsmanship, he would ask someone to arrange a big meal first. After going back and forth, the relationship between Merlin and Hill has eased a lot, at least not like the one who always stared at him at the beginning. Want to have a sip.

"What do you like, I don't know..."

"Because Merlin will send someone delicious food after each teaching, so I want to practice."

Hill swallowed the core, immediately took another fresh apple, and stared at Merlin expressionlessly.

"Ahaha... It's really a pure reason, Your Highness Hill!"

Merlin secretly wiped off the cold sweat in his heart. Fortunately, in order to prevent the opponent from hitting him because of hunger every time after practicing swordsmanship, he asked Siduri to send food in time.

if not......

Merlin didn't think about it, he sorted out his words, and then spoke.

"Unfortunately, Your Highness Hill, today's sword training is temporarily canceled, because King Gilgamesh seems to have something to do with you."

"Jill?"

Hill put down the half-eaten apple in his hand, and tilted his head to look at Merlin, as if to confirm something.

"That's right, so please come with me and go to the tower to meet the king now!"

"I see."

Without any additional reaction, the pure white boy stood up directly and walked out of the bedroom.

Seeing this, Merlin behind him couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Looking at it this way, there is no big difference from ordinary children, but I don't know what will happen in the future...

Concentrating his thoughts, Merlin quickly followed Hill, with that brisk look on his face again.

******

"Oh! Has it come already?"

On the throne, Gilgamesh had just finished processing a report on a clay tablet when he saw Hill and Merlin beside him approaching.

"My lord, I don't know why you asked the magician Merlin to bring His Royal Highness Hill here?"

Before Merlin could ask, Siduri asked first.

"Don't worry, Siduri, it's not a study of government affairs, it's just a step ahead."

"One step ahead?"

"That's right!"

Gilgamesh straightened his body and spoke with the corners of his mouth curled up.

"It's been a while since Hill came to Uruk. Although the people below know his appearance because of the instructions, he hasn't had a good look at what the city of Uruk is like."

"As a prince, if you don't even know your own city-state, it would be too dereliction of duty."

"So Merlin, today you take Hill to familiarize yourself with Uruk first."

This is really...becoming a babysitter...

Although feeling a little distressed, Merlin still accepted the order honestly, and then led Hill out of the meeting hall and walked towards the market in the city.

Watching the two leave, Gilgamesh, who was relieved by the arrival of the pure white boy, frowned again after recalling something.

Siduri, who was under the throne, keenly sensed the change in Gilgamesh's aura, and spoke with some worry.

"My lord, are you troubled by that incident?"

"Judging from the report submitted, that guy seems to have led the monsters to destroy several city-states."

Suddenly, Gilgamesh seemed to be talking to himself.

"King Gilgamesh, should we send someone to confirm his authenticity..."

"It's not necessary! This king has only one friend, and he has already passed away! That happened in front of this king's eyes, and this king won't be shaken by this little thing!"

Gilgamesh's expression became serious, his voice raised slightly, and he said seriously.

"Ignore this matter for now. Uruk's defense line still needs time to build. Continue to send the following report up, Siduri."

"Yes, King."

Pursing her lips, Siduri didn't say anything in the end, but picked up another report clay tablet, and started her previous work again.

******

"His Royal Highness Hill, you have been in Uruk for so long and haven't seen the market properly, have you?"

"market?"

"That's right! It's a place where humans trade with humans, and there's a lot of delicious food!"

On the road, while walking, Merlin spoke briskly to the pure white toddler beside him eating an apple.

Sure enough, after hearing the word food, Hill obviously paused, then continued to nibble on the apple, and then spoke.

"Is the bazaar... a place to eat?"

"Hmm... It might be a bit complicated to explain it conceptually. If it's practical, maybe it's faster to see it with your own eyes."

Merlin thought for a while, and then realized that they had arrived at the Uruk market inadvertently.

"Then, after this is the bazaar, so..."

"Welcome to Uruk Bazaar, Your Highness Hill!"

Following the direction that Merlin bowed to indicate, the pure white boy's golden pupils reflected the coming and going humans.
