I am Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.

"So, Master, what is your opinion on the attack on the Kingdom of Balstan today?"

“Really… you have to ask me everything. I’m not an encyclopedia…” Gil scratched his head. “Although I do know this one, it’s from the Dragon King Knights of the Dragon Kingdom of Doragonia.”

"What about the Dragon Emperor Knights...?"

At that moment, a scorching red flash of light shot down from the sky.

A burst of intense light followed by an explosion that stripped away soil and exposed the ground, while trees in the forest were snapped and felled by the wind from the blast.

A huge black shadow landed on the spot where the explosion had just occurred.

A jet-black dragon spread its enormous wings, obscuring the moonlight.

The blazing flames illuminated the pitch-black night.

A girl in a black military uniform walked out from the scattered sparks.

Her blood-red eyes shone with a terrifying, sharp light in the darkness.

Enkidu protected Ren, while Gilgamesh fell behind and was not harmed by the explosion.

Now, Jill could feel the almost violent oppression emanating from the girl even on her skin.

"Hey, Miss Leora, such behavior is quite rude to a knight."

Jill slowly took the sheathed longsword out of the bag.

"That's a real shame, because the dragons of Doragonia will go all out even when hunting lions."

Following her gesture, the dragon spirit Nidhogg spewed scorching flashes of light from its massive jaws.

A scorching flash of light swept across the ground.

The earth was reduced to scorched earth, and the crimson flames, accompanied by a terrifying explosion, burst into raging pillars of fire.

Enkidu pulled Ren up and landed behind her, avoiding the flames.

Jill bravely withstood the storm that followed the explosion.

"Oh dear... I'm so sorry, but if it's as you say, the dragons of Doragonia will also go all out to hunt lions..."

Jill's clothes transformed into a white shirt, and she now held a mud slab and an axe in her hands. "Then I'll show you a little bit of my strength."

Although he cannot use the Gate of Babylon in Caster form, he can control his magic with maximum precision in this state.

Jill quickly waved her hand, and countless runes suddenly appeared.

"Feel the power of my magic!" With Gil's shout, countless runes began to combine and arrange—

A pillar of fire shot into the sky!

Jill noticed that such commotion should have attracted Claire and the other girls, but they didn't come over. In addition, Leora was all alone, so he immediately made a guess.

“God, go help Claire and the others, they're probably in trouble.” Jill tapped the ground with her axe. “Leave this to me.”

"Master..."

"Go quickly, I'm fine here."

Jill picked up two knives from the side and tossed them to Lian. "Go quickly."

So Lian quickly left to support Claire and the other girls.

"You really came." Jill smiled.

"You anticipated this?" Leora's eyes darkened slightly.

Jill just smiled and didn't answer.

It's impossible that this wasn't anticipated, because Jill provoked them.

"I'm waiting for you"—this phrase is what's known as a declaration of war.

However, the other side was indeed very fast. They issued the challenge at noon that day and stormed into the camp that very night.

“But you’re still too green,” Jill chuckled. “Look at your feet.”

The ground was covered with dense runes, and Leora's pupils contracted.

"Burst!"

"Boom——!"

With a deafening explosion, Leora was directly swept into the blast radius—

When Jill tapped the floor, she infused magical runes into the ground. Then, through magical guidance and verbal delay, she allowed the runes to spread to a sufficiently large area, ultimately creating this explosive rune array.

Jill, out of personal interest, occasionally enjoys playing mind games guided by magic.

Although he thought that when the other party rushed over and engaged him in close combat, his expression would be quite amusing if he pulled out the Oath of Judah.

At the epicenter of the explosion, an even larger gust of wind arose.

Nidhogg roared, completely dispelling the explosion—

The ferocious and violent dragon spirit roared, and the atmosphere shook instantly.

Leora raised her hand in a gesture, and the dragon spirit transformed into a dark shadow.

The manifestation of darkness wrapped around her hand, instantly transforming into a gigantic demonic sword.

"Hey, hey, hey, how about we have a limit?" Jill narrowed his eyes, and countless runes reappeared.

"This is my dragon spirit Nidhogg's elven armor—Barmung."

Leora whispered softly, then swung her magic sword high into the air.

"what?"

Jill was dumbfounded.

Jill also came because of that greatsword.

"Well, never mind, it can't be used for the time being anyway, so I'll give you a demonstration!"

Jill immediately jumped back, her axe handle tapping the ground three times with the tip, which she used as a cane.

The three faint lights flickered only briefly, making it seem as if Jill had created some distance between them.

In fact, it was indeed to create distance.

boom!

The enormous demonic sword came crashing down, and if Jill hadn't retreated, this strike could have cleaved him in two from head to toe!

Jill had to use the Shadow Step technique to barely avoid it.

"It always feels like a forty-meter-long sword is about to strike, and I've only run forty-one meters." Jill looked helplessly at the greatsword that was only a fraction of a second shorter than her own.

"Alright, let's do it again!"

Jill slammed the axe handle into the ground. "Oppression!"

The runes left by Gil's three taps on the ground suddenly transformed into a purplish-black magic circle, and the powerful gravity pressed down directly on Leora, who was walking towards Gil!

"This is……!"

“Of course it’s a gravity-binding magic circle…” Gil grinned mischievously. “I just love seeing you warriors looking at me with those expressions that say you want to hit me but can only be kited by me.”

"Are you kidding me?! You clearly have such a powerful sword dance!" the girl roared angrily, frowning.

“Oh dear, it’s not fooling…” Jill grinned, “it’s playing a trick on me.”

"hateful……!"

“Gil, is there any difference between fooling and playing tricks?” Enkidu said.

“Yes, it’s roughly the same as… well, let’s just pretend there’s no difference.” Jill thought for a moment and decided to abandon this detail.

"Boom!" Leora smashed the ground, destroying the binding magic circle.

“...A scene that seems familiar.” Jill muttered as she quickly started running, and then countless runes once again filled the space.

"Damn it! Stop!"

"Why? A Caster who can't kite or fight in melee isn't a good Caster..." The mudstone slab in Jill's hand began to glow. "This time, the spell—"

"Don't even think about it!" Leora rushed towards Jill, this time much faster than before!

She looked at Jill.

But Jill showed no sign of panic.

Instead, he revealed a cunning and composed smile.

Leora's heart skipped a beat.

Yes, he just used melee combat to defeat the Barustan Kingdom's team during the day!

So, in that case...

Was he doing it on purpose?!

Intentionally provoke me to get close so I can kill you with a single close-range attack?

“Yes, I did it on purpose.” Jill seemed to have read Leora’s mind. “After all, I already said it.”

"A mage who can't fight in melee isn't a good mage!" So Jill grabbed an axe from the side and swung it at him!

"Clang!" The greatsword and the golden axe clashed. Leora managed to retract her black greatsword at the last moment, blocking Gil's attack.

"Quick reaction, how does it feel? Getting close to someone who seems to have no ability to get close, only to be hit back with a stick?" Jill looked at the other person, who was trying his best to suppress him, but seemed powerless to do so.

After using the Caster class card, Gil's magic and spirit increased by a major level, and her other attributes increased by at least a minor level.

It's fair to say that Jill now has enough strength to wield the two-handed greatsword that Leora holds with one hand.

"Hmm... [Dragon] is afraid!?" Leora was somewhat surprised.

“Well, your senses are pretty good…” Jill raised an eyebrow. “You should be glad you were fast enough just now, otherwise I would have pulled out a different weapon.”

For example, the oath of Judah, the oath of Judah, and the oath of Judah and so on.

There wasn't enough time, so they only used an axe.

If there had been enough time, Jill would have swung out that enormous cross, which weighed a full three hundred pounds, instead of the axe (staff) she was holding.

"As expected of a man, he's quite strong."
