Chapter 189 - The Awakening of Cusnfiel and the Path to the Summit of Existence

For a person like Gilgamesh, who had lived in a completely different way in this world but remained true to his principles, that assumption was certainly very concerning. He loved humanity, but he also understood that humanity in this world needed a completely different change.

Such games from the Human God would at most get him to abandon the intention of taking the throne of the Asura Kingdom. But what would that being gain by preventing Gilgamesh from becoming King? This matter required better understanding and study.

"That's a good idea, but certainly, even though I love humanity, it doesn't mean I won't have to kill a few hundred thousand just to set an example... What do you think? I suppose you love the life of this world more than even your own life; you remind me of my best friend."

When he called Flora to use her magic and transport this settlement to the Hidden Paradise, Gilgamesh knew he would have to talk about the things happening in the world.

"Your decisions are the fate of life; I wouldn't oppose whatever your decision is since you are the King of Heroes, my lord!" Flora, still bowed, whispered these words with a calm expression.

"Well, I believe you and accept your sincerity." Gilgamesh nodded and said, "But now that I see it, who are those puppets behind you?"

After speaking, everyone looked at the two human figures behind Flora; their heads were covered with a woolen bag, theoretically, they were puppets, but Gilgamesh could feel a trace of life deep in their souls.

At this moment, the two who were covered with a woolen cloth over their heads took it off. These were two beautiful women with blindfolds over their eyes.

"They are in an eternal dream; I found them on my way here, and because they wanted to die, I offered them the eternal dream. They would offer their entire bodies to live a life in dreams just as they wanted it." Flora raised her head, being the last creation of Gilgamesh, she couldn't show all her abilities before, but now she could.

Even with thousands of words spoken, what she did with people was extremely delicate. But judging by their features, she would not allow a life to be taken from the world without any true purpose. In this way, as long as she could keep the soul alive, she was more than enough.

"I can give you these women; both are incredible beauties, although emotionless. They are themselves but without memories, they can speak, obey, and feel, but they are condemned not to show their emotions." Flora said after some contemplation.

"Not everyone has that privilege; I deign to choose pure souls that have only had bad luck. Happiness, even if magical, must be accepted by those who deserve it, while others in pain will receive forgiveness."

"Not necessary, I don't require any other women besides my future wives," Gilgamesh stood up slowly and walked towards the entrance of the house.

"Shall we begin now?" Flora thought Gilgamesh was ready to take everyone to the Hidden Paradise.

"First, we need to go see one of my servants..." After saying that, Gilgamesh took a step forward, and in a fraction of seconds, he appeared a hundred meters away.

Seeing this, even Eris disappeared from her position, following Gilgamesh's trail.

"Some time ago, I encountered a good dog; he has probably regained the ability to form his humanoid body, so it's time to retrieve him. Still, I wonder how strong he has become with the blood ritual..."

"Is he useful?" Flora asked, genuinely surprised. Due to her general knowledge of Gilgamesh, there should be something about this new subordinate for someone like him to pay attention.

Gilgamesh stopped Eris after advancing a lot, whispered to her that the dog might be naked, so it's better not to be surprised. Upon hearing this, Eris lost interest and went to find Roxy for training.

"Cunsfiel, come out now!" Gilgamesh shouted as if giving an order, but after a few minutes, no one approached.

"I don't want to!"

Flora was surprised to hear this response. Quickly and respectfully, she gestured to Gilgamesh who was in front: "Did you cut his tongue?"

"It's not that bad; I just sense sadness in his voice..." Gilgamesh touched his chin and thought: "The ritual has failed."

"Show a little respect to Gilgamesh if he's the one you've sworn loyalty to. Even if they don't allow it, I'll cut you into pieces if I hear any more disrespect from your damn mouth." Flora, who loved life, had changed completely in just a few moments.

"Well..." Cunsfiel's voice got closer, and after a few seconds, he appeared in his humanoid form.

"It didn't work?" Gilgamesh asked, confused.

"Not that; it just didn't meet my expectations..." Cusnfiel's voice was as low as the sound of a mosquito.

"Come on, show me!"

Flora looked at this dog, who seconds later began to shine, and a man in his thirties appeared in front of them. His appearance was normal, not ugly but not handsome either, nothing out of the ordinary.

What was supposed to be wrong with Cusnfiel?

"Where did my little brother go?!" Cried Cunsfiel, pointing to his crotch, and indeed, there was no reproductive organ.

"That is unexpected..." Gilgamesh hid his surprise and avoided laughing; surely Cusnfiel's thoughts during the process were closely related to his current condition.

"We can fix that; Flora will take care of giving you a reproductive organ." Gilgamesh said in a calm tone.

"Eh?"

"Look on the bright side; you're many times stronger than before, so you've gained what we call an almost immortal body..."

"Understood, my lord..." Cunsfiel was now a fierce monster, but in front of Gilgamesh, he dared not be disrespectful. Even if others called him a fierce monster from now on, the man in front of him could kill him with just one finger.

Thus, after hearing Gilgamesh's words, Cunsfiel showed a respectful attitude.

When Eris returned with excitement, along with Roxy, to see Cusnfiel's human appearance, both froze as they saw that he remained in his dog form.

"Gilgamesh, something is happening with the sky for the past few days..."

Roxy added in a worried tone, "It hasn't been exactly known what happened, but what is seen in the sky hasn't recorded anything like it for years."

Looking up at the sky, deep within the clouds, there was a black magical mist.

"It's just a bit of magic; it couldn't be so bad. Only those with special eyes can see that trace of black magic." Regarding this news, Gilgamesh wasn't surprised at all, and he calmly spoke, "Even if it's something we should worry about, we'll simply solve the problems ourselves as we have done so far."

These words came out so easily and without any hesitation, immediately silencing Roxy. Uttering that they would destroy an entire continent, she herself had to accept that he had the capability to do so. But even so, because of this, it was decided that everyone would be taken to the Hidden Paradise as soon as possible.

After holding votes for a few days, preparations to bring this space to the Hidden Paradise had been put on hold.

Gilgamesh gathered everyone and said, "I have many rules, and Roxy has already spoken to you about them. Today, you will start anew and make many changes in your life. From now on, you will be my follower. It's not too late to turn back now, so your entire life won't be bound by the oath to me. At that time, any disobedience would result in punishment by destiny."

"I don't regret it!"

"If Roxy trusts you, we will follow you!"

"We are in your hands!"

Gilgamesh nodded his head in approval as everyone made a silent oath. Above the sky, myriad swords hid behind each Mugird.

"Then it's time for all of you to go to the Hidden Paradise, enjoy your lives, and do as you please!"
