57 The Poor Elijah

The tranquility on Gilgamesh's face vanished completely upon hearing how that brat had addressed him. Even in his previous life, where he was a bit perverted, such an insult did not exist. 

Suddenly, he had seen a woman so muscular and impressive that his eyes fixated on her and then on her tail. Later, a girl with crimson hair, similar in color to her eyes, suddenly caught his attention, and he felt that this girl was very familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before. 

But it turns out that just as he was questioning whether his thoughts were criminal or not, that red-haired brat called him 'pervert' in an arrogant and superior tone. 

How dare she? Gilgamesh wanted to get off his beautiful white horse right now and beat that girl up. But it was a pity because he didn't strike women who didn't attack him first. 

However, Eris's eyes were dominant, her expressions reflected much in Gilgamesh's eyes, and she seemed to be saying, "What are you looking at, you stupid pig? Haven't you seen a beauty of your age before? You damned scoundrel!" 

Unexpectedly, for the two of them, they would soon become much better acquainted. But for now, both of them reflected a crimson coldness in their eyes that sparked in the surroundings. 

As an invincible being, Gilgamesh had been calm all along the way and had become familiar with the transportation that all humans used. Although he could use his beautiful ark, which was as fast as his mind wanted it to be, he had arrived in this city in a carriage and then bought his beautiful white horse. Thinking about this, Gilgamesh clenched his teeth in anger. 

Inside Gilgamesh, his mind wanted to declare war, but on the outside, he put on his most serene expression and said, "Miss, have we met before? You look very familiar." 

Eris clenched her teeth as she stared at him, "Ha! If this miss knew who the hell you are, you wouldn't be riding a horse that looks like a donkey. What kind of dirty thoughts were you having in your mind while you were looking me up and down a moment ago, you damn pig? Are you pretending to be innocent when you're actually a damn stalker?" 

Veins on Gilgamesh's forehead bulged, and his grip on his beautiful white horse tightened as he thought, "Turns out this girl has a mouth dirtier than the manure my horse leaves on the road. I need to educate her a bit, or I won't be able to sleep tonight." 

Gilgamesh immediately thought of many things and dismounted from his horse, taking a few steps towards Eris and said when he finally remembered this girl from the signs on her clothing, "You may not know me now, but you'll get to know me soon, little one. It's a surprise that fate brought us together in this way. Only like this could I discover your true character, and indeed, you're as I've heard." 

Is this destiny? What kind of nonsense is this boy saying in front of her? Eris, after being surprised repeatedly, looked at Gilgamesh's somewhat strange attire, those earrings and that necklace with golden teeth, which made her furrow her brow even more. Seeing Eris's mesmerized gaze, Ghislaine suddenly realized who the boy in front of them was and couldn't help but get nervous. 

Like anyone else, she had heard the rumors about Prince Gilgamesh, and as Eris's bodyguard, she noticed the guards scattered on the street with their subtle swords at their waists, each of them exuding a very intimidating presence. If things went wrong, she wouldn't know what to do except try to intervene as calmly as possible. 

As for Elijah, after he noticed that Gilgamesh wasn't advancing, he stepped aside and listened to what the boy was saying. On his face, there was only a look of respect. This ten-year-old boy was really good with words when it came to courting women, and if his grandmother were alive, she would definitely blush. 

However, that courage in Elijah's mind increased when he saw the girl standing in front of Gilgamesh. When he saw that girl who was like a demon, he almost spat out his lung because he regretted wanting to warn Gilgamesh that she was Eris Boreas Greyrat, the daughter of the duke in this place. Those who even dared to speak to that unreasonable, arrogant, and ruthless lady of the entire Fittoa region were very few, to say the least, only her grandfather, parents, and bodyguards dared to do so. 

Eris looked at Gilgamesh, who was standing right in front of her, and that cute and innocent look on the unfortunate boy in front of her infuriated her even more. As if it weren't enough to have heard her father talk about an arranged marriage, now an idiot had to appear who pretended to be pure when in his eyes, there was only a sense of guilt mixed with lust. 

"Are you looking for a beating? Coincidentally, this miss is in a very bad mood. I can help you rearrange some bones in your body!" Eris said as she raised her fist threateningly. 

Ghislaine looked at Eris in shock. Doesn't she recognize Prince Gilgamesh, whom she was such a fan of? Eris talked every day about the rumors of Prince Gilgamesh, repeatedly saying that she wanted to be as strong as him. 

On his part, Gilgamesh was utterly lost. Was this lady the one he was supposed to establish an engagement with in order to sideline his factionless elder brother? Right now, he was questioning whether it was worth playing this way when he had the opportunity to erase the entire Notos Greyrat family. 

Since Eris would theoretically be his fiancée, he had heard about her attitude from Elaine, and knowing she had few, if any, noble qualities, he thought it would be much easier to relate to her. But now he discovered that it wouldn't be that simple. Have his charms disappeared from his face? Gilgamesh was not a man to doubt, but now he was truly uncertain. 

In summary, he had arrived at an inopportune moment when that girl seemed extremely furious about something he didn't know. 

"Miss Eris, I hope you've always been in good health. Hahaha... What I actually wanted to say is that I have something very important to attend to with the companion behind my beautiful white horse. But I'm sure you'll have your chance to rearrange all the bones in my body and even see my most powerful sword in the future, so I bid farewell for now. I promise I'll see you later, even if I have to enter your room day or night." 

"Day or night? That bastard doesn't want to live; he'll definitely be hanged for saying such indecent words. For the love of the gods, where on earth am I?" Elijah wondered with reddened eyes. 

Gilgamesh prepared to move away from here; he didn't want his reputation to be tarnished by getting into a fight with a girl. He would definitely educate Eris later; that's what he would do. 

Looking at Eris's threatening posture, it seemed like she was about to run toward Gilgamesh and start a fight. 

In Gilgamesh's memories, his most embarrassing fight was with an old woman carrying a metal cane with three plastic balls on the opposite end from where she held the cane. 

Now was not the time to fight with someone who might be his future fiancée; he couldn't afford that.
