I'm a bit stuffed, and I really need some time for a walk.

When taking a walk, of course you need a good chat partner.

It's a pity that the scenery here is a bit bad.

Mari Kuze rubbed his belly, then looked up at the boy, happily held his outstretched hand, and stood up with strength.When he wanted to say something, he gently covered his mouth and nose:

"quietly."

The slender young man in feathers, robes and bare feet looked a little dignified. The little girl followed his gaze and looked towards the sky, only to see a golden light flashing across the cloudy upper clouds of the underworld.

The boundless darkness seemed to be awakened by the light, and several figures flew straight towards the golden light. Wherever they passed, the gloomy divinity caused the souls lurking in the dark to scream and avoid.One of them came from afar, and the speed was the most astonishing. When it passed the hiding place of truth, it paused slightly.

Truth blinked, and felt the hand covering her mouth and nose strengthened, and consciously lowered her sense of existence.

"Enkidu?" The cold female voice asked.

"Yes." The young man nodded slightly.

Truth hides under the feathers of the young as the fledgling is sheltered under the wings of the grown-up.She felt the tips of the feathers that wrapped her tremble slightly, scratching her neck a little itchy, and almost laughed out loud.

Obviously, the monster of conscience who has always been straightforward and too lazy to hide, has no talent for hiding.

Fortunately, before the existence was exposed, it was probably a female figure who sighed inexplicably, just covering the breath of Truth's laughing voice:

"You do it yourself."

Throwing down such a sentence coldly, the figure feared by "Enkidu" didn't stay any longer, turned around and flew away.

Coincidentally, Truth's patience for playing hide-and-seek is almost exhausted.She couldn't wait to pull off the quilt, and met the boy's eyes:

"Enkidu?"

Seeing Enkidu nodding, she pointed at herself again, grinning grinningly,

"truth."

The green-haired boy followed her and said: "Truth, truth."

Enkidu's name came from a human language she had learned, and the little girl was proud that her pronunciation was so perfect that she hadn't lost what she had learned.

But when her name was uttered from the mouth of this beautiful human-like creature, an emotion deeper than pride quickly occupied her heart.

She seemed to be scratched by the down feather twice again, and she couldn't tell whether it was comfortable or not.

Enkidu glanced around, and the rustling darkness receded like a tide.

His gaze was like a sigh, passing the golden ax embraced by Jiu Zezhen, and explained in a gentle voice:

"If the creatures who come to Hades are discovered by the subordinates of the Queen of Hades, they will never be able to leave again. This place is very dangerous for you."

——The voice is really nice.

"Guests from far away who don't belong here, why did you come?"

Truth even forgot to pay attention to the meaning of his words, just looked at him stupidly without answering, until the green-haired boy frowned in confusion:

"Did you just fall down?"

Truth shook her head subconsciously.

Enkidu's feather quilt was thick and soft, and she didn't feel any pain from falling.

"Could it be... that you're not very good at the language here?"

Before the truth answered this time, Enkidu first showed a dazed look,

"I see, your appearance is indeed different from that of humans in any city-state. Let me guess—"

He looked at the eye-catching golden ax again, this time with a smile on his lips:

"This place is directly below Marsh Mountain. According to your falling speed, the take-off and landing point is about the interrupted position. There is the entrance of the mountain—"

"Truth falls from there."

Enkidu winked at her:

"Probably a golden, angry fellow who got you into this situation."

The little girl's eyes lit up.

She felt that the figure in front of her was as smart as her brother, so she clapped her hands.

Kuze Masayoshi's usual attitude is amazing, but as long as the truth praises him, he will always show his original shape.The green-haired boy didn't eat this set, but smiled wryly:

"Really."

"...Through the tunnel of Mount Marsh, across the darkness of twelve Bayers, you will reach the sea of ​​​​death at the end of the world. The wise men who survived the great flood and who were once human beings--Ute the Shiti, It lives at the mouth of the bay. It is said that if you ask him, you can learn the secret of eternal life..."

Enkidu stopped talking, looked over the mutated Hades, and sighed helplessly:

"Samash, the sun god, would not allow sunlight to enter the underworld outside the night, such a mistake would occur... Probably that troublesome king wanted to forcibly break into the tunnel of Mount Mash—"

"I'm very sorry."

"Feel sorry?"

Truth looked at Enkidu curiously.

After the monster of conscience started her foraging adventure, the number of human beings she came into contact with has reached double digits.Among these people, only Heiwajima Shizuo ever apologized to her - that was because the other party accidentally killed her by mistake.

But Enkidu had no reason to apologize to her.

It wasn't Enkidu's fault that she fell into Hades.

The little girl posed this question to Enkidu, and received an answer that confused her even more:

"Because that troublesome king was my best friend during my lifetime."

"His trip... probably has something to do with me."

Most conscience monsters have no concept of "before life" and "after death".

Truth didn't notice Enkidu's anomalies because she was full and didn't rush to look for food. She just thought that Enkidu was a good person with a tasteless conscience, or another inedible race that resembled human beings, but forgot about the dead souls. was inedible.

death.

What a waste.

What would Enkidu taste like if he was still alive?

Enkidu seems to believe that "my friend's fault is my fault", and regards the truth as his responsibility, and wants to send her back to the world.

Truth followed Enkidu, stopped and walked, and from time to time got into the feather blanket to hide under his instructions, avoiding the patrolling priests of the underworld.Those priests seemed to have a good relationship with Enkidu. According to Enkidu, it was because the golden king bribed many treasures to the priests of the underworld after his death.

"Jill is always so extravagant...what a waste."

When Enkidu was telling the past, his lips were slightly hooked, but it made Truth look a little unhappy.The little girl who believed in the textbook of human expression, for the first time began to doubt——

It's really like what is written in the textbook: A smile is joy?Blushing is anger?Is crying sad?

After getting rid of the entanglement of appetite, human beings who are the top rations have not become simpler, but more complicated.

"There is no direct way back to the world of Hades," Enkidu explained to her, "but there is a small road leading to the sweet water world where the water god Ea lives. It is a benevolent god who accidentally wandered into Hades. If a living person prays to him, he can rise from the bottom of the water connected to Hades and return to the ground."

"Where's Enkidu?"

"Me?" The green-haired boy was a little surprised, "I'm already dead."

He was still the same, with a gentle smile on his brows and eyes:

"The soul of the dead cannot return to the world, the truth."

Truth, who was still rushing on the road at first, suddenly faltered. She dragged on and delayed the progress. One day's schedule turned into two days, and two days dragged on into five days.

The road is a bit long, but the truth is not tired at all.The energy snatched from Qi Mu is still accumulated in the body, and even half of it has not been digested.On the other hand, Enkidu, seeing the little girl getting thinner and thinner, from a chubby puffer fish to a half-leaked puffer fish, felt guilty first:

"Are you all right? Are you too tired? There is nothing human can eat in Hades, hold on for a while, and it will be here soon."

"Master Truth is not a human being."

Truth was sulking, she was still fat, and her angry expression was more like a puffer fish. Enkidu, who was worried about her physical condition, suddenly laughed.

"What laughing……"

"Laugh at your cuteness." Enkidu leaned down, and in a rare way, took the initiative to rub the little girl's head.

Unexpectedly, these words are true. There are actually quite a few people of the same race who praised her for being cute, but those people haven't spoken to her a few words, and they don't know her at all.The group of old monsters who had a little contact with her only knew how to coax her; her sister and parents had stopped praising her so much, and they didn't even dare to appear in front of her for several years; I always use honorifics when talking to her, and I am afraid of her appearance.

Truth stared at Enkidu, who had accompanied him on the road for several days, and pointed at himself in a daze:

"Do you think... I'm cute?"

"cute."

Enkidu didn't take the truth of "not being human" seriously, but thought she was tired and said "not being human", so he comforted her softly:

"As a human being, even if you are easily hurt, you are generally happy. The truth is still too young, and you will understand it later."

"As a human being, can you be happy even when you are injured?"

Truth is even more incomprehensible.

She doesn't like to attend lectures, and doesn't like to meet those annoying fellows. She only depends on cramming on the textbooks for the exam, and spends all her time reading miscellaneous books.

Mari Kuze felt that she liked human beings, but the human beings that Enkidu talked about seemed to be different from what she understood.

She stared at the green-haired ghost, and asked suspiciously:

"So—does Enkidu feel happy?"

"Even when you die, do you feel happy as a human being?"

It seems impolite to discuss this with a dead soul, but Enqi didn't show any offended expression, he just lowered his head slightly and looked away from her:

"Sorry. I'm just a weapon made by God, not a human being, so I can't answer your question."

Truth, who has always been very patient with human beings, finally stopped getting sulky, and once again had an unknown anger.

She persisted and asked: "It's happiness, right?"

"……Yes."

Enkidu replied somewhat perfunctorily, as if coaxing a child.But the truth seemed to be excited as if it had found an important argument.

"So--"

Truth stretched out his hand, held Enkidu's face, and looked at it seriously.Like an idiot student who just learned new knowledge and shows off to the teacher, he gave a willful judgment,

"Enkidu is human."

"Your friend is human, you will die like a human, you are as incomprehensible as a human, you identify with the happiness of a human, and feel the happiness of a human even when you die—so you are a human."

The little girl let go of Enkidu who was dazed by her fallacious reasoning, and the more she watched, the more satisfied she became.Patting him on the shoulder contentedly, he announced casually,

"Well, Master Truth has decided to appoint you as my favorite human right now."

"Would you like to come with me, Enkidu?"
