” “I was wondering which mongrel was barking, but I didn’t expect…” Just as the Conqueror King’s loud laughter died down, a golden radiance condensed on top of a streetlight.
The man wore golden armor, his red pupils filled with the arrogance of looking down upon all living things.
The King of Heroes, Gilgamesh.
He stood on the streetlight, his gaze sweeping over Arthur, Morgan, and Artoria below with disgust.
“Not only are there boring fakes, but also a madwoman reeking of disgusting fairy stench.” Gilgamesh’s gaze finally rested on Arthur, his eyes cold: “You actually dare to call yourself a king and attempt to seize my treasures?
Even death cannot atone for your disrespect, mongrel.” The air froze instantly.
The Conqueror King stopped laughing, and Artoria tightened her grip on her sword.
The bottomless magic power on Goldie, along with the golden ripples slowly opening behind him, made everyone feel a fatal threat.
However.
“Mongrel?” Arthur looked up at the high-and-mighty Gilgamesh, not angry, but instead chuckling as if looking at a clown.
“Is this The Oldest King?
That habit of yours, liking to show off while standing on a streetlight, really hasn’t changed at all.” “What did you say?!” Gilgamesh was so angry he laughed, the golden ripples behind him expanding instantly, and several Noble Phantasms poked their heads out, “A mere mongrel, kneel and apologize to me!” Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Three Noble Phantasms turned into golden meteors, shooting toward Arthur’s head with the momentum to crush everything!
Artoria was shocked: “Watch out!!” She wanted to swing her sword to block, but realized someone was faster and more irritable than her.
“In front of me, you actually dare to look down on my husband from a high position?” Morgan, whose mood was already somewhat irritated by Artoria, erupted completely at this moment.
The black magic spear in her hand slammed heavily into the ground.
“—Ignorant thing, get down here!” Boom!!
Morgan raised a hand, and several pitch-black gravity magic bullets instantly blasted toward the Noble Phantasms in the air.
At the same time, a terrifying “gravity suppression” acted directly on the streetlight area where Gilgamesh was located!
As the queen who ruled the Fae Britain for two thousand years, Morgan’s mastery of magic had long since reached the divine realm.
With a crisp “crack” sound.
Those three incoming Noble Phantasms were directly knocked away and shattered by the black magic power!
And the streetlight under Gilgamesh’s feet, unable to withstand this terrifying gravity, instantly twisted and snapped!
“What?!” Gilgamesh’s pupils shrank.
He didn’t expect this Caster (actually a Berserker) to be able to forcibly interfere with his projection of Noble Phantasms.
The streetlight collapsed, and the arrogant King of Heroes had to jump onto a nearby container in a sorry state to avoid the embarrassment of landing on his face.
“Well done, Morgan.” Arthur did not spare his praise, even casually wrapping his arm around Morgan’s waist, looking provocatively at the dusty Gilgamesh: “I don’t like people standing higher than me.
Even if you are the King of Uruk, once you’re on my turf, you have to follow the traffic rules.” “You…
you damned bunch…” Gilgamesh was completely enraged.
This was a great humiliation!
As a Servant, he was actually forced to jump down?
“Unforgivable…
I will tear you to pieces!!” The Gate of Babylon was fully activated, with dozens, hundreds of golden ripples covering the night sky!
Seeing that a world-destroying battle was about to erupt, Tohsaka Tokiomi’s heart in the Tohsaka mansion almost stopped.
“Quick!
Make the King retreat!
A battle of this scale will expose the mystery!” Tohsaka Tokiomi looked frantically at the command spells in his hand, hesitating whether to use them.
But just then, the system’s prompt sounded in Arthur’s mind.
[Ding!
Detected host is acting cool, triggered hidden quest: ‘The King’s Deterrence’.] [Quest Objective: Without using any Noble Phantasm, force Gilgamesh to retreat solely through aura.] [Reward: Skill ‘Golden Rule (A)’ (From now on, you are a rich person).] Arthur’s eyes lit up.
Lacking money was exactly the difficulty in raising Morgan and Sakura.
He let go of Morgan and stepped forward alone.
Facing the rain of Noble Phantasms, the aura on Arthur changed.
An ancient, desolate red dragon aura from the Inner Sea of the Planet soared into the sky from within his body!
That was the complete liberation (deterrence version) of the red dragon factor, the strongest power hidden in the [Arthur Pendragon] template.
“Gilgamesh.” Arthur’s voice seemed to ring in the depths of everyone’s soul, his emerald eyes instantly turning into vertical dragon pupils.
“If you want to start a decisive battle now, I will accompany you to the end.
However…” “In that treasury you are so proud of, is there really a weapon capable of killing ‘one who is the Guardian of the Planet’?” Arthur’s hand slowly gripped the hilt of a sword in the void.
Although he didn’t draw the sword, a radiant aura capable of leveling the entire Fuyuki City faintly seeped out from the Invisible Air.
Gilgamesh’s movements stalled.
As a king who possesses the [Star of Omniscience and Omnipotence] (though sealed year-round), he felt a true threat in that instant.
The man in front of him was not an ordinary Heroic Spirit.
The scale of his spirit origin was outrageously large!
Moreover, Tohsaka Tokiomi’s advice finally came through telepathy at this moment: “My King!
Please calm down!
It is not time for a decisive battle yet!
Please retreat!” Gilgamesh’s expression was uncertain.
He looked at Arthur, then at Morgan, who was eyeing him covetously nearby, and Artoria, who was confused but ready to fight at any time.
One against three?
Although he was not afraid, this did not fit his aesthetics.
“Hmph.” Gilgamesh put away the golden ripples behind him, restoring his arrogant posture.
“You escaped death, mongrel.
My mood tonight has been ruined.” He took a deep look at Arthur, as if he wanted to carve the image of this man into his mind.
“Next time we meet, I will treat you properly with Enuma Elish.
Wash your neck and wait.” After speaking, the golden spirit particles dissipated, and Gilgamesh chose to retreat.
Phew…
The atmosphere at the scene finally relaxed.
The Conqueror King Iskandar whistled: “Impressive, impressive!
To think you could force that Goldie to retreat.
Brother Saber (referring to Arthur), I am becoming more and more interested in you!” “But let’s end it here for tonight; I have to go back to drink too!” After speaking, the Conqueror King drove the Gordius Wheel and rode away with Waver Velvet.
At the scene, only Arthur, Morgan, Irisviel, and Artoria remained.
“Um…” Irisviel spoke somewhat nervously.
Although Arthur saved them, the woman beside him (Morgan) looked like she really wanted to kill someone.
Arthur withdrew the dragon aura and returned to being that gentle and jade-like handsome man.
He ignored Morgan’s murderous gaze, walked up to Artoria, and handed her a card…
a business card with the Matou Family address on it?
“Well fought tonight, other me.” Arthur smiled at Artoria, his eyes clear, “Although we are in a competitive relationship, in the matter of dealing with certain ‘unruly guys’, I think we have room for cooperation.” “If you don’t mind, I will host a banquet at my house tomorrow noon.” Arthur specifically leaned into Artoria’s ear and whispered: “I will make that dish you like the most…
potato gratin and roast lamb chops.
The kind of taste that Merlin used to steal and eat.” Artoria’s ahoge, which had been standing up, instantly turned into a heart shape.
The memory of her taste buds was awakened!
That was the taste of home!
It was the taste of the British royal kitchen!
“I…
I will consider it!” Artoria blushed, trying hard to maintain her reserve, but the act of swallowing her saliva had already betrayed her.
[Ding!
Artoria’s favorability increased.] [Current status: Stomach has been captured.] “Let’s go, Arthur.” Morgan coldly grabbed Arthur’s collar and dragged him back, completely not giving him a chance to show off in front of the beauty.
“Go home.
If you don’t make a midnight snack to compensate for my wounded heart tonight, I will turn that brat named Sakura into a frog.” “Yes, yes, my Queen…” Watching the backs of Arthur and Morgan leaving while bickering, Artoria stood there, not recovering for a long time.
“Irisviel…” “What’s wrong, Saber?” “That man…
although he is strange, I feel…
he is not bad.” The sea breeze blew past.
This night’s chaotic battle ended.
But the “Holy Grail War” belonging to Arthur had just begun.
