"Thank you, Elemental Zack!" The farmers and their families began cheering.
I was in my wood element and I was pointing one of my hands at the dead fields. Well, not so dead anymore as I fixed them.
The crops were all growing back and their colors returned. The fields were just dead when I got here. Apparently, Gugalanna's attack caused a few natural disasters, one of which was that the land wasn't exactly healthy enough to grow any plants or fields.
I needed to fix both the plants AND the ground to make sure they don't die out in a few days.
Changing to my rock element, I focused on the ground this time, and whatever cracks it had vanished along with looking... healthier, I guess is the word.
"There, you should be able to grow new crops again, and these ones won't die out so easily," I said to the cheering farmers.
Turning to the guards that came with me, I said, "You guys should stay with them to for a few days. Like Enkidu said, the wildlife should be acting violent, so they will need some protection."
The guards sighed, obviously not pleased, but they obviously understood the situation and nodded. "As you wish, Elemental Zack," they practically groaned out.
I nodded to them and started walking away, heading back towards Uruk. I knew that a couple of them were most likely glaring at me, not happy that they were told to stay out of the city.
That wasn't surprising. A lot of people were rather pissed off that Gilgamesh left. Heck, some guards straight up quit and left their positions.
Heck, I don't think Siduri even said a single word since Gil left.
All that did was honestly make things harder for me and Enkidu.
Honestly, if I didn't know he NEEDED this journey to grow as a person, I would try looking for him to drag him back to Uruk.
Back to the present, I turned to my wind element and started flying towards Uruk. Seeing as I move literally as fast as the wind, I managed to reach it pretty soon.
While I was flying into the city, I passed a very big field of plants and flowers that was in front of the gate.
The crater was gone. I fixed it by just raising the ground and filling what was under it. I didn't feel right burying all those beautiful flowers.
That actually reminds me to ask Enkidu about where they come from.
Flying into the castle, I entered the throne room and landed down to see that Enkidu was sitting on the stairs leading to the throne rather than throne itself or any kind of seat, actually.
Siduri was nowhere to be seen. I guess she was going to get more stone tablets since there was only a few left with Enkidu.
"Welcome back, Zack," Enkidu greeted as he placed the tablet he was holding down. "Hey, Enkidu, the farms are all in working order again, and I left the guards to protect them from the wildlife,"
I told him while changing back to my wood element. Enkidu nodded. "I see. That is good to hear. I was about to see which guards we can send, but since you already left some there, we can focus on other things at the moment."
"Hey, can I ask you something?" Enkidu raised an eyebrow at me. "There's this big flower field in front of the gate I repaired. It's in the place where my branch exploded, and I know for a fact you didn't make them?"
"A field of flowers?" Enkidu placed a hand on his chin and looked upwards in thought. "Hmm... I don't actually know, but if I were to make a guess from what I understand your branch did, I believe that was the world responding to the magical energy."
"Uh... can you explain it in simpler way?" I asked him while awkwardly scratching the back of my neck. Enkidu chuckled.
"To put it simply, you basically gave the world a very large load of pure magical energy for it to absorb. Think of it as giving the world a very fertile spot to work on."
Ah, so basically, I gave Gaia a LOT of pure magical energy on a silver platter. Gaia must have loved that.
Spoiler alert: it did. Gaia even admitted it loves that technique the most between my powers.
