Becoming Enkidu in DxD Chapter 393 393: Gorgon Attacks Uruk!

"King of Uruk, the Holy Grail is in your hands, isn't it?"

"Indeed, it is with ."

As he spoke, Gilgash raised his hand. The Gate of Babylon rippled open, and a golden Holy Grail floated out.

This was the Great Holy Grail of Uruk, one of Gilgash's treasures—distinct from the Holy Grail sent to this world by the King of Magecraft, Solomon.

"Hand over that Holy Grail, and I can pull back the Demonic Beasts attacking Uruk."

"Ho? If you say it like that, then the Demonic Beast attacks on Uruk are related to you as well?"

"More or less. These Demonic Beasts were created by Mother. The purpose of their existence is to sweep across the land and hunt prey."

"Hunt prey, you say? So you an to say my people of Uruk are prey?"

"No. To be more precise, the prey is humanity."

This statent made Gilgash extrely dissatisfied. As the King of humanity, hearing humans referred to as prey—did that not an he himself was just a large-sized prey?

"Hunting humans... what exactly are you trying to do?"

However, Gilgash did not show anger. Instead, he continued to ask because he still had many questions.

"Because humans are the best nutrition. Raising Demonic Beasts requires nutrition."

That sentence instantly ignited Gilgash's fury. If the one standing there were anyone other than Kingu, Gilgash likely would have attacked already.

Even Siduri covered her mouth in disbelief, her face filled with rejection.

"Is this your will?"

"No. This is Mother's will. Using humans to destroy humans is the most efficient way."

"Using humans to destroy humans... Truly sothing a god would be capable of."

To the gods, humans were cattle, animals to be kept. The chief gods always remained in their high places, looking down at the trivial humans from above the clouds.

It was precisely that groundless arrogance that made Gilgash hate the gods from the depths of his soul, eventually leading to the separation of man and god.

"You ask for the Holy Grail, for what? I recall the Chaldeans and rlin saying that you already possess a Holy Grail."

"It is not I who needs it, but Onii-chan. Onii-chan requires a massive amount of Magical Energy to restore his strength. The final piece is the Holy Grail of Uruk."

"So that's it. He's the one who needs it. However, I apologize, but I will not give this Holy Grail to you."

Giving an advantage to the enemy was sothing he would never do. Uruk was already in a critical state. If he gave the enemy another edge, then Uruk wouldn't even need to fight—they might as well just surrender.

Saying this, he placed the Great Holy Grail of Uruk back into his treasury. During this process, Kingu briefly considered seizing it by force, but ultimately decided against it.

"If that is the case, there is nothing left to discuss. Once Uruk is breached later, I will co myself to take that Grail."

"Hahaha! If you are capable of doing so, then the Holy Grail shall be yours as the spoils of war."

"Hmph. Wait for the mont the disaster of destruction arrives."

"I look forward to it."

Ending their final conversation, Kingu imdiately took to the sky and left the Ziggurat of Uruk.

Gilgash, sitting on his throne, smiled. Kingu's arrival today had provided him with a wealth of useful information. For Uruk at this mont, this was good news.

The only thing he found difficult was Shin Akira. The opposing side likely possessed power equal to Enkidu in his pri.

And now he had even beco Tiamat's child; this was not good news at all.

Added to that was the unknown number of shadow soldiers; with just one man, he could easily suppress the entire Northern Wall, causing countless Demonic Beasts to die without being able to advance an inch.

If the situation reversed and he ca to attack Uruk, would Uruk be able to hold?

The answer was most likely negative. Facing an infinite number of soldiers, the current Uruk would not be able to survive.

anwhile, a massive boom echoed.

On the side of the Blood Temple, Gorgon could no longer remain still.

The fact that the Demonic Beasts were dying in massive numbers, coupled with Kingu's absence, caused her to lose what little patience she had left.

The most important factor was that she was an Avenger. Her Spirit Origin sustained her while simultaneously driving her to destroy humanity, to wipe humans out until nothing remained.

Accompanied by a massive rumbling sound, a gargantuan body erged upon the land.

Her size was imnse, like a true monster. She had the body of a giant serpent, while her upper torso remained human, with large wings growing from her back. Her long purple hair had transford into terrifying, giant snakes.

"Humans, welco your destruction."

The Avenger, Gorgon, began to move.

And at that very mont, Kingu was leaving Uruk toward the dense forest, because Akira was there.

By chance, she passed by without eting Gorgon, as their destinations were in completely opposite directions.

At the Northern Wall, the Absolute Front in the War Against the Demonic Beasts, the Saviors of Chaldea and their Servants were fighting bravely. A large number of Demonic Beasts had been defeated, assisted by a certain useless mage at their side.

Of course, there was also a young goddess wearing a cloak, wielding a scythe, who continued to harvest the lives of the Demonic Beasts.

The reason Gorgon sensed the mass death of her Demonic Beasts was because of this cleanup crew. To earn Gilgash's recognition, upon rlin's suggestion, they had ford a Demonic Beast hunting team.

They hunted Demonic Beasts everywhere. After all, in Uruk, military rit was the finest dal.

By guarding the Northern Wall and protecting Uruk, even though they were strangers, they would be recognized by the people of Uruk, and naturally, by Gilgash.

That was the plan, but they never expected that their actions would ignite Gorgon's wrath.

Because Akira had previously hunted a massive number of Demonic Beasts—even doing so for over a month—and without Kingu's leadership, the losses on the Demonic Beasts' side were enormous.

These situations piled up together. Although Gorgon's territory was currently wider and larger than in the original story, the actual number of Demonic Beasts had significantly decreased.

Especially since the human population was dwindling, it was becoming harder to hatch more Demonic Beasts.

Add to that the fact that Kingu's attitude toward her was starting to shift secretly, Gorgon could no longer stay quiet. Therefore, she chose to take action herself.

She would destroy the entire Dynasty of Uruk, seize the Holy Grail, beco the sole goddess of all Uruk, and exterminate humanity.

As long as she obtained the Holy Grail, under the rules of the contract, the other two goddesses would have to beco her subordinates or leave sopotamia.

When that ti ca, she would beco the true Earth Goddess of sopotamia, replacing the old Mother Goddess Tiamat.

With such an obsession driving her, Gorgon put her plan into motion.

She began her march toward Uruk. The Demonic Beasts across sopotamia, under the call of 'Mother,' also flocked toward Uruk in one massive wave.
