"My beloved subjects!" Gilgamesh stood before more than half a million people who praised him as their monarch.
Slaves, humans, dwarves, and elves from other countries witnessed Gilgamesh as a true ruler. They were freed from the gates of hell, and now, as they celebrated the coronation of the one who changed their lives, this was the least they could do for him.
"Today, before you, I assume the crown with humility and responsibility. This is not just the beginning of my reign, but also the start of a new era for our kingdom. I address you not only as your monarch but as someone who values freedom, peace, and truth."
"For a long time, our lives have been tied to the word of a divine being, a god who supposedly demands wars and sacrifices in his name. But today, I urge you to reflect on our beliefs and question the logic behind blindly following a being that asks us to fight against each other."
"I do not believe in the idea of a god that sees a human as a demon. We are complex beings with virtues and flaws, but demonizing our fellow beings only divides us. It's time to leave behind narratives that pit us against each other and embrace the life we share, even if some are longer than others."
"We are not puppets created by a god to fulfill his whims. We are autonomous beings with the ability to think and decide our own destiny. Let us not allow ourselves to be controlled as if we were mere pawns on a divine chessboard. We own our choices and are responsible for forging our own future."
"A god, in my vision, is not a dictator who imposes his will upon us. Instead, he is a benevolent guardian who observes and guides without imposing his vision on humanity. True divinity lies in mutual respect, compassion, and the collective pursuit of harmony."
"Rather than placing all our faith in the words of a distant being, I urge each of you to believe in your own word. We are capable of discerning between right and wrong, of building a kingdom based on justice and equality. True faith does not reside in blind obedience but in acting with integrity and compassion."
"In this new reign, we commit to working together to build a kingdom where peace prevails over discord, where wisdom triumphs over ignorance, and where unity prevails over division. We do not need to seek the approval of a distant god; we will find guidance in our hearts and mutual collaboration."
"May this be the beginning of an era where humanity rises above old discord, where we realize that true greatness lies in our ability to love and understand. As your king, I pledge to lead with wisdom and empathy, always seeking the well-being of all."
"In the pursuit of truth, peace, and freedom, let us raise our voices together, building a kingdom where dignity and understanding form the foundation of our existence. May each of us become an architect of a brighter tomorrow, where our actions reflect the greatness of humanity."
"May this speech mark the beginning of a new era, an era where we believe in ourselves, in our ability to create a kingdom where true divinity is love and harmony among us. Together, we will forge a destiny worthy of celebration for generations to come."
"Long live the kingdom of freedom, truth, and peace!"
Eris, Roxy, and Elaine saw in Gilgamesh a true King to whom no one had ever been compared before. The years of experience in Gilgamesh's reign gave him an aura that surpassed any king despite his short reign, that was the difference between him and other reigns.
...
Three years later...
"Are you sure you don't want us to accompany you?"
Gilgamesh, standing in his golden armor, looked at his wives and said, "I'll be back in no time, I promise."
To eliminate the last nuisance from this world, Gilgamesh needed to remove the Human God from the map and finally relax in his own world of tranquility.
Not only had he been a nuisance to him, but also a danger to the kingdom, so after careful consideration, he chose to seek him out alongside Orsted and eliminate him.
"Then we'll wait for you, we'll make the arrangements to fulfill your purposes during the time you're away."
"I trust my wives for that."
