Chapter 589
Ishtar is the type who likes looking aloof and remote, so her shrine is high, of course second only to Gilgamesh's throne. Dropped from the top, the bag landed precisely in Cyd's hands in a perfect arc.
"It's, well, it's very similar to their style..." Cyd flipped the bag to confirm the contents and revealed a knowing smile, moved towards Medusa and beckoned with force. He grabbed Leonidas' shoulders, "Leonidas, you really disturbed my family's activities, you have to apologize later!"
"I will die!"
"Also Don't exaggerate." Cyd took Leonidas to the house that Gilgamesh had arranged for him, but he was largely unused because he was left in the temple by Stheno and Euryale in a tearful offensive.
Cyd plans to renovate it well for Ritsuka and Mash to live in. After all, two girls can't live in such a rough place, but now that Ritsuka and Mash haven't come, he greets Leonidas to come to this residence for a banquet. .
“Even if we are in high positions in Uruk, we need to use currency for transactions, and our salaries are settled on the same day, which means that you have no worship today, although you have arranged a residence, but absolutely not. Eating food, this is tentatively considered a small mistake by Wang."
"After all, we as Servants don't need to eat, and our muscles don't need to consume protein."
"This is Leonidas. Your fault is wrong. That king pursues the theory of value. The existence of value must give the same return. And human beings must eat. Necessary [charging behavior]."
Cyd opened the bag, and it turned out to be shiny currency.
"I came a few days earlier than you guys tentatively and made an insignificant contribution, so I'll treat you this time."
"The insignificant contribution..." Leonidas sees The corners of his eyes twitched at the bag full of money, and he tentatively knew the value of Uruk's currency, but it took more than three years of work to get a bag full of money.
"What did you do?"
"It's just a city wall." Cyd smiled and pointed to the huge city wall that can be clearly seen even from a long distance.
That's a huge amount of work that can be directly imagined, and Cyd squeezed it down to a day.
"This is a Divine Vestige! But it can't!" Leonidas raised his hand and circled around Cyd like a speaker, "The so-called city wall is built by people brick by brick, It's a small thing that anyone can do, but it's the small things like this that can bring everyone's wishes together in the city wall, and it's the Protector people themselves who guard such a city wall!"
"Of course I know This may make humans rely on Divine Vestige, but, Leonidas, you see.” Cyd pointed to the people with a reassuring smile around them, “They feel reassured because of that city wall, even if they know that disaster will strike, they can be so calm. "
"I used to condense my strength and even run away in order to avoid human beings relying on miracles, but at this moment I am willing to use all my strength to build a city wall where there is no stronghold one cannot overcome, just because I do so. It can save the people in front of you."
"Why think about the future when the current crisis has not been overcome."
"This is the difference between a king and a hero, Leonidas Your Excellency." Ushiwakamaru and Musashibō Benkei appeared not far away, apparently the Servant's ear made them hear the conversation between Cyd and Leonidas.
"Heroes always fight to save everyone in front of them, and the king has to choose to give up some people in exchange for the future of the kingdom." Ushiwakamaru moved towards Cyd and Leonidas with a bright smile and beckoned, "I heard someone treat me!"
"Lord Ushiwakamaru is losing because there is no money for wine."
"Musashibō Benkei! I won't be lost for such a small thing !" Ushiwakamaru blushed and waved his arms as if he had been exposed. "On the battlefield, everything except consuming necessary nutrients is a luxury waste of food, and even more how is wine."
"Uruk's ale is very good, and you can drink it all day long." Cyd shook the bag in his hand, and there seemed to be the aroma of ale in the crisp currency collision.
"Goo-" Ushiwakamaru's throat clearly moved.
"Would Lord Ushiwakamaru and His Excellency Musashibō Benkei come to the banquet? This is the last time to relax before the battle."
"cough, since Lord Cyd said so, then I , we're deference is no substitute for obedience." Ushiwakamaru, lightly coughed, came over with a brisk pace that was completely different from his own reluctance.
"This is also an exchange for cooperation on the battlefield in the future. There is absolutely no selfish desire to taste good wine and food."
Musashibō Benkei moved towards Cyd and Leonidas with a helpless smile, The one who responded to the Gilgamesh summon was Ushiwakamaru, the famous military commander Minamoto no Yoshitsune in his infancy. Although his strength may fluctuate a bit, he is still an excellent strategist.
It is inevitable that there will be a childish reaction like this when I am young, but this kind of reaction written directly on the face probably will not change even when I grow up.
"Lord Ushiwakamaru is probably expecting a banquet with his colleagues." Musashibō Benkei, Ushiwakamaru's guardian, explained to Cyd and Leonidas in a low voice.
It is a good thing to have talent, but talent can also attract jealousy. When talent is so powerful that she can't even feel jealousy, she will be feared by everyone, and Ushiwakamaru is because of this. Neither of my own Anikis are compatible.
After all, it is quite scary for a genius to obey himself for no reason and no reason.
But these things will not happen at this time, neither her Lord nor her colleagues can be described as simply talented, and there are even those who have been chosen by fate.
Although Ushiwakamaru didn't understand all of this, she instinctively felt that this would be a war without regrets.
Probably.
Chapter 24 Come, put Merlin on the catapult
"Cyd-sama is undoubtedly the greatest hero in terms of greatness and power! If he becomes a king, he will also Is the greatest king!"
"My Aniki Minamoto no Yoritomo he, he's not too bad, though Lord Cyd looks handsomer and stronger!"
Cyd looked at Leonidas and Ushiwakamaru who were arguing in front of him with a polite smile. It was obvious that the two of them quarreled nonsense after drinking.
Why are things like this?
Cyd looked at Merlin on the opposite side with a smile that was nothing but polite. This guy was sitting in the middle of the generals as if he was at first. Drink, even showing no less muscular arms than Leonidas and they clink glasses.
Although Cyd doesn't mean to exclude Merlin, Leonidas and Ushiwakamaru are definitely drinking because Merlin keeps pouring them drinks, and the source of the quarrel is the guy's inadvertent sigh a sentence.
[Cyd is indeed a great hero, but I don't know if he will be a great king. ]
This should be a topic that disappears as quickly as a pebble thrown into a lake, but there is Leonidas here, not only a Greek hero but also a descendant of Heracles.
The following thing is very simple. Leonidas touted Cyd like a bard, saying that Cyd would definitely become the greatest king, and Ushiwakamaru, who made himself Aniki Lord in his lifetime, refuted it on the spot.
As a result, this excellent strategist was refuted by the drunk Leonidas in a few words, because her Aniki Minamoto no Yoritomo is indeed not as good as Cyd, especially Leonidas eloquently tells about the ancient Greek legend of Hero After the story of Pure White she is even more convinced that her Aniki is not as good as Cyd.
Then Ushiwakamaru drank all the rest of the wine, got himself drunk, and went crazy with Leonidas.
"Ah Although he has a dangerous weapon, it's cute to maintain his Aniki." Merlin, who was definitely the culprit, looked at Leonidas and Ushiwakamaru's argument with a smile in front of the crowd.
Musashibō Benkei, who would stop Ushiwakamaru, was already drunk by him, and things wouldn't be so interesting if the honest monk was still awake.
"Humans are really interesting, even when the story ends."
"Have you considered the client's thoughts?" Cyd put down the glass calmly, and now He was being sandwiched between Leonidas and Ushiwakamaru, who were still stroking him as if to confirm something.
Leonidas is a descendant of Heracles, and being touched by the descendants of a close friend is considered connivance by the elders to Junior. Ushiwakamaru has no self-consciousness of being a woman, and squeezes his arm as if to confirm the quality of the weapon, tentatively I didn't care, so Cyd let the two little fellows mess around.
"This strong muscle is the symbol of Pankration exercise! There are only three men in ancient Greece who can mention Cyd-sama's body on equal terms!"
" Well, this is a body with such an efficient killing ability, and I have to admit that this body is much stronger than Aniki's."
Hey, you two are arguing now, not touting together, and I'm not for It is for self-defense that you exercise your body only after killing the enemy efficiently!
"ah ha ha ha...I would laugh happier if you didn't look at me with such terrifying eyes, Cyd." Merlin smiled and drank the ale while calling out to Siduri, who was a part-time waiter. Proceed, "Siduri, please serve all of Uruk's most expensive dishes, it's a Cyd treat anyway."
"Magus-sama please don't bring the bad habits of your era to Uruk, because now you should Look for the slate of destiny in Mesopotamia instead of watching Cyd-sama jokes after drinking Ushiwakamaru-sama and Leonidas-sama here.”
Siduri is as strict as ever in his politeness, but it is a pity that he is serving King Arthur's Court Magus, Merlin is pretty good at dealing with the Siduri type, otherwise how could he be happy in Britain.
"Siduri, can I take this away?" Cyd pointed to the butter cake on the table, and everyone who was drinking and eating meat didn't touch this sweet treat.
"Of course, but please finish it by noon tomorrow. If possible, please stop Ushiwakamaru-sama who wants to use Noble Phantasm and Leonidas-sama who wants to use Noble Phantasm to see if he can stop it." Although Leonidas and Ushiwakamaru, who were going to have a little sparring behind them, were dangerous to the ordinary person, Siduri still wrapped the butter cake with a calm expression, which is the attitude that a servant of the king should have.
