Chapter 61: Unshakable 04
Most of the furnishings in the house were destroyed by the "Wang Cai" shooting, leaving only a few chairs untouched.
Gilgamesh supported his chin with one hand, sitting casually. He leaned back in the chair and made the wooden stool feel like a throne, as if the three people in front of him were ministers who came to see him.
Others who saw this scene would probably be unable to help but sigh at his irrepressible domineering aura, but Zhongli had a natural resistance to such people - because he couldn't see them at all.
The look that looked down on the world, the unpredictable smile... He could not see any subtle expressions.
Naturally, he could not feel this domineering aura.
In Zhongli's eyes, Gilgamesh's smooth movements were just like he was just finding a stool to sit down.
Zhong Li understood and said, "Since you are tired, we will leave first."
Gilgamesh: “…”
Gilgamesh: "Wait, when did the king say he was tired? It is an offense to the king to presume on his own will!"
He had only released Wang Cai once, how could he be tired? Zhongli said this as if he were a weak bastard.
As expected, the bad nature of gods will not change easily. Although he just told some good jokes, he still hates them.
The scarlet snake pupils narrowed dangerously, and Gray immediately grabbed Weber's sleeve and pulled him to hide behind Zhong Li.
"I mean no offense," Zhong Li said gently, "I just acted out of habit. After all, humans usually choose to sit down when they are tired."
"It seems that my speculation was wrong. From now on, I will rely on your words."
Gilgamesh: “…”
He suddenly felt as powerless as if his fist was hitting cotton.
Not only because of Zhong Li's overly gentle attitude, but also because of his distorted ideas.
Gilgamesh retracted his previous conjecture: this god did not have confused cognition and regarded himself as a human.
On the contrary, he was very clear that he was God.
Precisely because he is aware of the huge gap between the two, he deliberately imitates human behavior and thinking patterns - although his imitation is quite poor and he can only force formulas.
Humans sit down when they are tired, so Gilgamesh must have sat down because he was tired.
This is one of the "formulas" of the god Morax.
Gilgamesh couldn't help but think about why he did this.
Disguise? Interest? Or...
Want to be human?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Gilgamesh couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Interesting, so interesting!
There are countless stories of humans dreaming of becoming gods, but it is unheard of for a god to want to become a human. This idea was so ridiculous that the gods of Mesopotamia laughed at it for seven days and seven nights. Gilgamesh wiped away the tears of laughter and thought to himself -
It’s not a wasted trip.
In Gilgamesh's laughter, Hoshino Nozomi felt unprecedentedly confused.
Why did this heroic spirit suddenly start laughing wildly?
Hoshino Nozomi: System?
System: [Hmm... I think he might have thought of something happy.]
Hoshino Nozomi: “…”Okay.
He is really moody, Xingye Wang commented, "To serve the king is like serving a tiger." This sentence is the most appropriate to describe Gilgamesh.
Gilgamesh stopped laughing and said, "Keep moving towards your goal, ordinary person."
Let him see delusional gods struggling in the mud. That scene will surely please him.
Gilgamesh deliberately emphasized the word "ordinary people" and spoke slowly and clearly. Zhongli's expression was blank for a moment, as if his inner thoughts were touched.
Gilgamesh studied his expression with satisfaction, and felt that the god's golden brown eyes, besides being annoying, could also be as beautiful as inorganic gems.
While Gilgamesh was happy, Hoshino Mochi was not in a very good mood.
He suspected that his identity was exposed, otherwise why would Gilgamesh specifically emphasize "ordinary people"? Zhongli was obviously not an ordinary person!
The system soothed: [Host, please rest assured. The Hero King's [Omniscience and Omnipotence Star] only saw through the part that belonged to Lord Morax.]
Only then did Xingye Wang feel relieved.
He regained his composure, said "Of course", and motioned for Gray and Weber to move forward.
In Weber's eyes, what Gilgamesh said just now was a response and provocation to Zhongli's previous words "I'm just an ordinary person".
After all, it is obvious that Mr. Zhongli is not an ordinary person.
Weber looked at Zhong Li.
Facing Gilgamesh's provocation, the young man did not even frown, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
A higher state than “not showing emotions on one’s face” is to always maintain mental stability, be calm and rational at all times, so that one can always be invincible.
...I can only say that you are worthy of being Mr. Zhongli.
Weber took a step forward, but just as the three of them moved, Gilgamesh spoke again, his eyes falling on Gray: "Hmm? So that's what's going on."
The girl's hood was blown off in the fight just now, revealing her beautiful face, pretty and lovely.
Noticing his gaze, Gray finally reacted and quickly put on her hood, covering most of her face.
Weber was not surprised at the King of Heroes' sharpness.
Because they have all seen the Saber (swordsman) of the Fourth War, King Arthur, Gilgamesh can naturally notice the abnormality in Gray's appearance - she looks exactly like King Arthur.
Gray was a flesh/body container prepared by a certain magic family to resurrect King Arthur. Her original appearance was only somewhat similar to that of the other, but perhaps influenced by Saber's appearance, Gray's appearance completely changed into that of another person overnight.
This was a huge blow to Grey, and made her particularly concerned about her current appearance.
Weber had been taking good care of her, but he had not expected that Gilgamesh was still alive, otherwise he would have told Grey about it in advance so that she would be mentally prepared and avoid him in advance.
Weber: "Grey."
"…I'm fine, Master."
Gray shook her head, remaining relatively calm, but the King of Heroes' next words instantly made her look ugly.
"A low-quality imitation," Gilgamesh seemed to be mocking, "so stupid that it makes people laugh. How can the glory of the original be imitated at will?"
Weber lowered his brows in dissatisfaction: "Hero King, please watch your words."
Gilgamesh said coldly: "Who are you commanding, bastard?!"
Gray's hands that were holding onto the hood kept exerting force, creating several wrinkles on the smooth fabric, and she pulled the gray fabric downwards with force.
Suddenly a sigh came from beside me.
One hand held her hand and gently pried open her knuckles which had turned red from exertion. The warmth was transmitted through the thin black gloves.
Zhongli suddenly said, "I don't think that's what Mr. Gilgamesh meant."
Gilgamesh: “?”
You just promised not to speculate on the king's intentions, but now you start speaking for him, right?
So it was just a polite remark to fool him? ?
Gilgamesh's face darkened instantly.
Zhong Li was not affected by the depression at all: "He was criticizing those ridiculous people and laughing at their ignorance, not targeting you."
"Your soul is unique, the one and only Grey."
