Chereads / The Confusing tale of a Fairy / Chapter 18 - Enkidu

Chapter 18 - Enkidu

"You are weak Zephyrus" Zelda told her sister.

"MEAN" Zephyrus pouted before replying rather childishly.

Zelda raised one of her eyebrows after which her expression became serious.

"Zephyrus, it's the truth and you cannot deny it. All you have in your arsenal is your physical strength and what is more your body doesn't contain even a drop of mana". Zelda continued

"That is why we are here – at Nidavellir to find you a weapon"

"Wait a weapon?" Zephyrus questioned.

"Yes, a weapon after all you need something else to protect yourself" Zelda said and whispered to herself "in case I'll be long gone in this world".

Zephyrus eyes sparkled when she heard that she would obtain a weapon– A WEAPON AND ITS FOR HER. 'How exciting," Zephyrus thought to herself.

The fairy sisters then entered the Forge where they met up with a dwarf called Siduri.

"Zelda! How ya been?" Siduri cheerily asked.

"I've been good, my friend and meet my sister Zephyrus" Zelda introduced her sister

"Oh- uhm… Hello" Zephyrus shyly replied after seeing the dwarf redirect his attention to her.

"Greetings– and Why do you stumble upon the forge, Zelda?" Siduri asked though he already had his guess as to why they were here.

"We are here to find a weapon for Zephyrus," Zelda answered. "I see," Siduri pondered while scratching his chin. "Well I guess, we should start"

Zephyrus at this moment had no idea about the hardship she would experience that's gonna happen in the next few hours.

"No" Siduri rejected the sword seeing Zephyrus' posture. "The spear makes you look small, rejected" "a bow? Do you even know how to use a bow? No? I knew it ""You need something to attack with not defend–that's a no for shield ""Are you choosing anything that looks cool?" "A gun is possible but… I think it's too fragile for your hands. ""An axe? Isn't that too barbaric for a fairy?" "Rejected" "Nope" "No" "That just looks weird when you hold it" "Nah" "Ehhhh" "No" "Yeah, rejected" "Rejected" "NOPE" "THAT IS NOT HOW YOU HOLD THAT WEAPON" Siduri yelled out of frustration.

"Ehem– that was rather disgraceful of me," Siduri said, looking ashamed.

"No it's okay. I guess a weapon is just not for me" Zephyrus sighed accepting the fact she'll never get a weapon.

"Zephyr" Zelda started "I'm sure a weapon that's for you is here. When I first went here to get my weapon– I didn't want a spear because it wasn't my main weapon after all I use a sword. That is why when I got Gungnir I had to train once again totally disregarding everything I learned about the way of the sword". Zelda shared her experience. "Anyway, how about we rest for a minute?"

"Sure" Zephyrus agreed to rest. Where she became drowsy and soon fell asleep.

"Gilgamesh" "My friend" "If only God would permit it" "Screw the Gods" "Please my friend. Do not leave me" "Gil, I am nothing but mere clay to the Gods if I could. I'll stay"

Zephyrus saw multiple mirages in her mind and then awoke. "What was that?" Zephyrus asked herself when she felt something of a connection that was urging her to follow.

Zephyrus soon followed the trace of connection and soon found her standing in front of what appeared to be black chains. Zephyrus seems like she was in a trance touched the chains which slowly changed its appearance.

The black chains soon revealed its true colors, a golden material with markings at the end of the tip of the chain. Zephyrus didn't know why but she had a feeling that this is it. The weapon that is just for her– not knowing how she knew Zephyrus declared the name of the weapon "Enkidu"

Zelda would soon find her sister jumping around with chains floating around her as she said to her sister "I found the best weapon ever– it is also a friend" Zelda, though happy for her sister, questioned Zephyrus mentality and wondered if she was too hard on her.
