A true hero marries a man by his appearance [Comprehensive]

Three years in a flash - this sentence is easy to say.

But for those who have experienced it, this period is enough for many things to happen.

When it comes to "change", it is most appropriate to take Ozymandias as an example.

Not to mention the change in height, he is now more imposing than the confident and proud boy three years ago.

He didn't always get beaten by the teacher's side—well, study—some time ago, he volunteered to join the expeditionary army and went to the battlefield in person.

For many people, the battle on the battlefield is inevitably compared with danger and death, but this high-ranking prince shows no fear at all.

Whether it is commanding soldiers to charge, or riding a chariot to kill the enemy, Ozymandias can handle it with ease.

The battlefield is his training ground, and it is also a whetstone to sharpen the sword.

Dozens of days later, when the army won the victory, the young man who escorted the captives through the streets and received the admiration of thousands of people—no one dared to look directly at his dazzling light, could only praise that noble man from the bottom of his heart. name.

How dazzling is the prince sitting high on the horse.

After tempering, he grew up rapidly.

His childishness is gone, his figure is tall and straight, and his face is as handsome as a god. There is no doubt that he is the rising tomorrow. It is destined that one day, wherever the sun shines, it will become the kingdom controlled by the king.

however……

I have to mention it in passing.

The prince has indeed made great progress, and obviously has the majesty that a pharaoh should have. It can't be seen that he got miserable when he fought wits with a certain teacher a few years ago.

It's just "can't see it" though.

In private, in front of a few specific people, Ozymandias still couldn't hide the naivety that has not changed in essence, and has not decreased but increased.

That's right, it's childish.

It can be seen from the fact that the solemn-looking prince got off his horse and entered the palace. Instead of rushing to meet his father, queen, mother and concubine, he went straight to a place he knew so well to find his teacher.

At first, his pace was quite leisurely, not showing how eager he was.

But soon it will be different.Ozymandias walked faster and faster. In the end, not only was he walking like flying, but the faint smile on his lips was still deepening unconsciously.

If you describe the prince's mental activities at this time quietly—with considerable disrespect, you will find that when he is about to meet the teacher he hasn't seen for several months, the prince is a little less serious and stable than the surface.

Ozymandias was probably confidently deciding that the teacher must have missed him after such a long time.

This is for sure, there is no need to doubt, is there a slight possibility that the teacher does not miss him?

No, of course there is no way.

Ozymandias thought quite happily, during the time he was on the battlefield, Moses and Nefertari, two friends who hadn’t seen each other for a few months, asked someone to bring him a letter , the letter naturally expressed a lot of care and longing.

Moses and Nefertari missed him, so by the same token, the teacher must also miss him-this is the logic of Ozymandias.

He took it very seriously, and didn't think there was any problem with logic at all.

Of course, the fact that Mr. Eddie never sent him a letter and never came to visit him (if he wanted to, it would only take a few minutes to visit his apprentice), was also rightly ignored by His Highness the Prince.

'Anyway, with the character of the teacher, even if he misses me, he won't say it.What a troublesome man, but, as a disciple, I naturally have to tolerate his shortcoming. '

With such thoughts in mind, Ozymandias came to Eddie excitedly before he washed off his dust.

It didn't take long to find it.

However, as mentioned above.

Not long after being happy, Ozymandias was shocked to find that the teacher didn't miss him at all—no, in the process of missing him, he spent the time he was away with Nefertari.

Still not right.Ozymandias said.

He has no problem with his good friend Nefertari, what he has a problem with is... what is the problem?This doubt appeared in the prince's mind, and he couldn't give an appropriate answer for a while.

After such a long time, Ozymandias still didn't realize what the source of the strange emotion that occasionally appeared in his heart without warning.

And because he didn't have that consciousness at all, he was so sour every time, and then he recovered as before, and he got used to it over time.

It's the same this time.

Ozymandias only let the unknown strange feeling linger in his heart for a moment, and then turned his attention to the business that he suddenly learned.

"What happened to Nefertari?"

he asked, his voice full of surprise.

"I don't know, but it's almost the same."

After shaking off the sticking apprentice, Eddie replied with an unclear expression.

He didn't know the specific situation either. He knew that the incident happened because he sensed an astonishing burst of magic power not far away—that happened to be in the direction of Nefertari's house.

In the next second, the sphinx given to Nefertari came tremblingly for help.

The sphinx cub has also grown up, but at this time, it doesn't have the aura of a beast at all. Instead, it seems to be scared by some monster that is more ferocious than a beast, and it can't even stretch its wings. Falling to Eddie's feet.

Therefore, the impatient attitude towards the apprentice is the reason.If it wasn't for Ozymandias' trouble, he would have rushed over by now-forget it, don't talk nonsense.

"Go and have a look!"

After saying this, Eddie didn't even pay attention to the sphinx, and directly used the ability to cross space to go to the place where the mutation occurred.

Originally, he didn't even want to take Ozymandias with him, but this kid hadn't figured out the situation before, so he just grabbed his arm and went to Nefertari's house with him.

*****

This was supposed to be the gorgeous garden of a hereditary noble family.

However, for some unknown reason, the courtyard that could be called "magnificent" no longer exists, and what is presented to me now is a desolate place with no flowers and plants, and broken stones and broken trees everywhere.

The house in the center was unexpectedly not seriously damaged, and only one corner of the house was visible to the naked eye.

Although the battle was huge, when the change happened, there was not much noise. This is the reason why there was no disturbance to the outside world except for the people who were here.

Eddie hasn't seen the mess in the courtyard yet.

The place where he appeared was the corner of the only house that was damaged. As expected, it was the courtyard where Nefertari lived.

When the figure appeared, the first thing that caught her was the girl who was lying on the ground and her life was unknown.

Nefertari was only a little younger than Ozymandias, and as time passed, she also grew into a slim and beautiful girl.

The appearance has changed a little, but maybe she is really influenced by Eddie too much, and the degree of influence by the education of the aristocratic family is getting smaller and smaller. This point, since she happily learned from Eddie without telling the family Magic can be seen.

"..."

Should you regret it? You shouldn't just teach her magic... No, it doesn't matter if you don't regret it later.

There is no reason to regret what he has done, and besides, it has nothing to do with whether Nefertari used magic arbitrarily.

This child is not a character of acting rashly without authorization, and it really can't be said that it was a coincidence that would cause such a result.

Then, there is a little "personal reason".

Not thinking so much, Eddie picked up the girl. After finding out that the girl was only dying and her life was not in danger, not only did she not relax in her heart, but she frowned tightly.

"Ozzy, you take care of her first, and those people in her family are also handed over to you."

Leaving this sentence lightly, Eddie handed Nefertari to Ozymandias, just instructing him to do things.

Amidst the noise in the background, Ozymandias picked up the unconscious Nefertari, before he could be surprised or angry.

He saw Eddie walk up to the hollow where most of the wall disappeared, making a gesture to jump from there, and subconsciously shouted: "Teacher!"

However, the man didn't seem to hear it, and disappeared from his vision the next moment.

Ozymandias was taken aback for a moment, and in his remaining impression, the feeling the man's back gave him—it turned out to be extremely amazing!

It's like facing an enemy.The man noticed it, so the arc of his back was tightened, making him look taller and straighter.

He walked out a few steps, and his steps seemed neither light nor heavy, but in fact they seemed to contain a concentrated and heavy force.

People who looked at him from behind couldn't give birth to the desire to chase after him.

...this is an unprecedented feeling.

Before that, Ozymandias only knew that his teacher was strong, but he didn't know how strong.This has something to do with Eddie never showing his true strength.

He couldn't make Eddie serious, so let alone the limit, he didn't even know where his teacher's bottom line was.

Ozymandias has always believed that as long as he works hard, one day he will be able to use his own strength to force the teacher to be serious-but at present, it seems that he does not have to wait until that day, he has already seen it.

Although not because of him, but because of a... enemy? !

"He spotted the enemy, so he chased him... No, it's not like that, that expression—"

For a moment, Ozymandias' thoughts turned and he couldn't help gritting his teeth.

On the one hand, he took Nefertari out of the dangerous building that was about to collapse, stopped the servants who were rushing here, and went directly to Nefertari's parents.

On the other hand, a trace of gloom flashed across the expression of the prince who showed strength and responsibility, and he couldn't help but think of what he had just noticed.

Teacher, his expression...

It didn't look like he met a strong opponent who could make him serious.

In addition to dignified, he seemed to have smiled.

It was more like being angry at a stupid thing done by an acquaintance who came by chance, but he couldn't hide his excitement and joy.

……

what.

Just leave the students and run away by themselves!

Obviously, he has been able to stand on his own.

*****

"The way you look now doesn't look bad."

"Well, it's not bad. Although the restrictions are a bit greater, it's not easy to appear in this posture, so let's make do."

Really.

Sentences are not changed.

Such an opening remark, is it possible that every time we reunite after a long time, we have to come back?

He doesn't care.

It's not hard to find that arrogant king, because that guy just announced his presence here to the whole world.

That surprisingly strong magic power...is it called magic power, anyway, it is the power he felt close up thousands of years ago, and after a thousand years, it is once again showing up in front of his eyes.

"It's too slow, Eddie, when did you become so verbose."

This is what the king, who stood on a high place with only a backlit figure for the people below, said immediately after the opening remarks.

His voice was still as arrogant as ever. If he hadn't had to stand at such a high place and dress so glitteringly, Eddie might have felt a little more cordial.

"If you didn't come here out of your nerves, and the space transfer up to twice a day is used up, would I need to spend so much effort?"

Eddie's tone was not good, and he stepped on the dry yellow sand, leaving sunken footprints.

He didn't want to look up at Gilgamesh standing on the top of the rock wall in the desert, and felt that Gilgamesh's golden armor that would sink just by looking at it was very vulgar, so he simply looked straight ahead.

"I won't talk nonsense. Gilgamesh, tell me what's going on with you."

"Not completely dead? Just kidding. I don't ask what you are now... How long have you been learning Nefertari, and I can't understand her level very well. How could it be possible to summon you with such a basic summoning technique."

Before he could finish speaking, the stone wall on which Gilgamesh was standing shattered.

Just like Gilgamesh, who was immortalized as the oldest king, the King of Heroes, hated looking at the bastards on the ground, Eddie also didn't like being looked down upon.

It's fair now, he looked straight ahead, and the golden figure was already reflected in his eyes.

"You are the only one who can allow this king to step on the same level ground as mortals."

The golden king seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

He took a step forward first, as if stepping through the sky, stepping on the invisible momentum under his feet.

"However, you are really careless. For a mere human being with ordinary aptitude, the moment the king responds to the call and the contract is concluded, the magic power will be emptied. If the king didn't cut it off in time, what will be left is only those who lost their lives. Sacrifice."

"Oh, thank you for your quick response. I like that little girl very much, and I want to play with it a little longer." Eddie said, "But you still didn't tell me."

"You, logically, have been dead for more than 1000 years, Gilgamesh."

His voice gradually sank.

"Why was Nefertari summoned in this form."

From the moment he saw his former best friend, he was watching him carefully.

It was just weird at first, but the more I looked at it, the more I felt something was wrong.

It is definitely not a human being, and it is more inclined to be a condensed body formed by the gathering of unimaginably huge magic power... It can be described as "unimaginable" by him, which shows how terrifying it is.

Most unimaginable, however.

Eddie's frown became tighter and tighter, and finally, he was almost shocked to find that the Gilgamesh that appeared in front of him at this time was not a magical condensate, but a real entity!

"Hmph, it's just something that becomes a so-called 'heroic spirit' after death—wait a minute, who allowed you to use 'things' to refer to this king!"

Gilgamesh snorted softly. The "Heroic Spirit" mentioned in the dialogue seemed to be very disgusting, so he didn't explain too much.

In other words, when Eddie arrived, the king's eyes would not move to the other side, and all his attention, body and mind, should be devoted to the man with silver hair and golden eyes.

"Based on the level of the bastard you taught, indeed, it is impossible to summon this king in the next life."

"However... being able to create the opportunity this king needs is a great achievement. This king spared her life as a reward."

Gilgamesh has already walked in front of Eddie.

Two equally strong, equally proud and arrogant men stood face to face, and both saw the irresistible sharpness in each other's eyes.

The Gilgamesh in Eddie's eyes is slightly different from the one in his vague memory.

Not only is he wearing golden armor at this time, he is like a god from the age of gods, majestic and noble, and daunting.

There are deeper ones.

Deeper "change"!

In other words, Eddie in Gilgamesh's eyes is exactly as expected.

His expression was as expected.

His mood is also expected.

Everything is under the king's control.

After all, this is a picture that has been sketched long ago.

Eddie wandered in the world for a thousand years, and Gilgamesh, why didn't he wait patiently for a thousand years in the Hall of Valor?

Be patient, this is really not easy for Wang.

Probably also—he never thought that he would not be able to wait for the factors in it.

"Why else? Of course it's for you, my dear friend."

Wang, who had a slight smile on his lips, deliberately emphasized the sound of a certain word.

He inspected the face of his "best friend" almost in admiration, and sighed with satisfaction after realizing that Eddie's performance had always been developing in the direction he expected.

That's the look.

The constricted pupils trembled in the fiery golden eyes.

Not fear, not fright, but an almost irrepressible impulse.

Yes, impulsive.

Almost thought that the frozen blood seemed to be attracted by a familiar breath, revived under the hidden ice layer, and boiled unwillingly!

——It’s been too long in this boring world, you.

Gilgamesh thought with pity.

After the end of the age of the gods, where the dark tide was turbulent, and there were countless divine beasts and monsters lurking, they still spread all over the human land, and the mysterious shadows seemed to disappear in an instant.

People and gods that make him love or hate.

his friends.

his enemy.

are gone.

What Anu, the father of the gods said in the past, "Don't worry about him, just let him go" seems to have been confirmed at this moment.

Immortality, eternal life, unfettered—it seems so on the surface, but in fact, it is more like a deliberate abandonment.

This man was abandoned by time, so, apart from the hatred accident that made him make this decision in the first place, he has been unwillingly pursuing the remnants of the ruins, and what he did was just "unwilling".

Did the man discover it himself?

do not know.

But Gilgamesh clearly knew it.

When dying as a human being, he said, he was tired and would wait until the next time.This is the moment to wait for.

"There is no opponent, there is no existence that can make you burn. You have been depressed for so many years, do you still remember how to fight? Do you still know the taste of bleeding? If you forget everything, it will disappoint me. You, who are so lifeless, left the throne with your body and came here."

"How about it?" After changing his name, Wang uttered such bewitching words.

"I'll be your opponent, come on, how about exercising your muscles?"

As he spoke, he smiled and raised his hand, as if he wanted to casually caress the face of the standing man.

However—when he was about to touch it, someone grabbed his wrist.

The wrist bones were almost shattered under the pressure of such a great force.

"...I didn't expect that you, a self-willed bastard, would be so caring and considerate to your old friend. Tsk, what's the purpose, just say it, don't beat me around."

"Do I still need to lie to you about this? It's true that I want you to stop being so desperate, but there are also things that must be collected."

"so?"

"Of course we need to discuss the remuneration." Gilgamesh looked directly at the man whose eyes were getting brighter and brighter, "This king is not a fool who will waste his efforts, and he has never forgotten the shame you brought me. , how can I do without some reward?"

"Oh, that's right." He said again, a savage smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and a predatory look also flickered in his red eyes.

"I don't intend to change the request I made to you."

"..."

Eddie was silent at first.

There is no doubt that Gilgamesh bewitched him.

He couldn't resist the temptation at all.

The blood is boiling, and I have endured for 300 years. I have endured and suppressed it, so that the "desire" that I almost thought had disappeared is revived at this moment.

No matter how long it has been, Eddie is a man who is eager to fight with the strong and will never be left out.

When he was in Uruk, Gilgamesh would fight with him whenever he disagreed, usually for no reason, just for the comfort of his heart.

But now, he is doing it for fun, while Gilgamesh... hmph.

This bastard king hasn't given up yet.

Having been coveted by a man who wasn't interested—a close friend whom he admits to for more than 1000 years, it stands to reason that Eddie would still be as angry as he was back then and beat this guy up.

but.

"It's a little troublesome..."

He muttered to himself.

I slowly thought in my heart, bad.

It seems like I can't beat this guy.

The closer the distance is, the more directly he can feel that the current Gilgamesh is not at the same level as the human Gilgamesh in his memory.

It seemed that after one death, this guy's strength had multiplied several times, to the point where Eddie found it very difficult.

... Heroic Spirits.

He was also silently chanting this unfamiliar term, determined to find out what the hell a heroic spirit was.

However, finding out the truth is a matter of later.

"Because it's you, I chose to use the main body which is far more than ten times stronger than the clone/body. Although the price is that I can only stay here for a short time, it doesn't matter."

Gilgamesh raised his eyebrows, and asked again with the attitude that he had already confirmed the answer: "How about it, do you want to agree?"

He is smiling, because a man who can be treated so seriously by him is absolutely impossible to disappoint him.

"Ah."

Eddie laughed too.

There was ice-coldness in the golden eyes, he was so good-looking, but at this moment when he smiled, it was very ferocious.

"If I win, I will definitely beat you back to that Heroic Seat."

"I lose...Okay, I will let you do whatever you want."

……

……

Upside down.

As if the wrath of the gods descended here, the entire desert experienced a terrifying storm.

During these ten days, even people far away in the capital could see the light that seemed to tear apart the sky and the earth.

The light spread, the chaos split, and then, the ice cones that would never appear covered the sky and fell suddenly.

Another day passed, the desert was moistened by the melting ice water and turned into wet soil, and a new miracle was born.

Miracles—so say the ignorant with trembling.

Only Ozymandias thinks otherwise.

He rushed to the vicinity of the desert very early, but due to the thick gray fog ahead and the threat that almost stopped his heart beating in front of him, he couldn't stop at all.

He was anxious, impatient, but helpless, he waited until the earth-shattering loud noise slowly subsided before approaching.

In order to hurry, Ozymandias uses a sphinx instead of walking.But the Sphinx was afraid of the remaining power in front of him, his limbs trembled, and he almost collapsed on the ground, unable to fly any further.

Ozymandias didn't force him either, he gritted his teeth and moved forward on his still trembling legs.

It took him more than a day to find the person he was looking for in the desert that was no longer a desert.

But - because of this, he saw a picture he never thought he would see.

A dark red weapon, neither a gun nor a sword, forcibly pierced through the palm of the person.

There is still the power to open up the world on it, but here, it seems that it is just a nail that is just used to fix people on the ground.

What did he see?

……

his teacher.

For a long time, he thought that he was too strong to defeat the teacher who could only be barely chased by him forever.

Right in front of his eyes, he was crushed by a strange man, acting recklessly.

And he...

……

at that moment.

A particularly shocking thought flashed through his mind.

— want to replace it.

- This man can do...

——Then, I can too.
