I am Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.

“Thank you for the compliment—” Gil raised his axe to deflect Leora’s attack, and then the stone tablet in his hand lit up.

"Binding!" This time, Gil used a binding magic.

In the space, the circle formed by runes tightly bound Leora. Gil smiled and said, "You're still a hundred thousand years too early to fight me."

"Don't underestimate the Dragon Emperor Knights!"

The girl's eyes turned crimson.

She used all her strength to break free of the rings that bound her.

"Hmm...that's interesting, then..."

“I’ve also noticed something…” Leora stared into Jill’s eyes, “You know almost nothing about offensive elven magic?”

“…Ha, who knows.” Jill’s noncommittal attitude made Leora narrow her eyes.

For the first time, Leora hesitated about whether to make a move on the man in front of her.

Because the other party cannot be sure whether they are truly not proficient in that kind of magic.

But she quickly put those things behind her.

All she wants now is to defeat her opponent.

So she took up her sword and charged at Gil.

"So you're still too naive."

Jill smiled.

His smile was incredibly cunning.

"I only have a rudimentary understanding of attack magic—"

Jill drew a trajectory, "Fire!"

The cannon fire, like a pillar of light, engulfed Leora's figure.

……

the other side

"...How could this be...Could it be Lady Leora!?" Yuri, the vice-captain of the Dragon Emperor Knights, exclaimed in surprise.

The divine energy, so powerful that even those in this direction could sense it, suddenly ceased.

"You were distracted by looking to the side during the battle? You underestimate me!"

The dragon knights, who were as impenetrable as an iron wall, were momentarily weakened by their hesitation—and Claire certainly wouldn't let this opportunity slip by.

She lashed out with her fiery whip, creating an arc-shaped slash that knocked Yuri's Halbert to the ground.

"...Oh no... This is terrible!"

"—Go, Scarlett!"

The Flame Whip instantly transformed into the shape of a fire cat and attacked the enemy.

"Tsk!" Yuri jumped back to dodge the attack. "Hunting plan suspended, everyone retreat!"

"Lady Yuri!?" the other members of the Dragon Emperor Knights asked in surprise.

"Lady Leora has lost," Yuri said.

"What……!"

Upon hearing this, the dragon knights of Doragonia all changed their expressions drastically.

However, they were well-trained soldiers after all. After understanding the situation, they immediately and methodically headed to the other side of the forest under Yuri's leadership.

"Don't even think about escaping!" Claire was about to give chase when Lian stopped her.

"Don't chase them, don't pursue a desperate enemy." Lian remembered what Jill said, "The enemy is well-trained, and it's hard to guard against whether there are traps. Losing a partner would be a great loss."

“…I understand, but the god really trusts Jill.” Claire pouted and said.

“He is my master…” Lian shook her head with a wry smile. “Besides Restia, my master is the only person who is very important to me… He is like my father.”

"Father...?" Lian didn't expect that her words would be overheard by the other girls.

……

“Hey, you lost.” Jill looked at the girl in front of her.

Because of the bombardment by the magic cannon, her clothes became somewhat tattered, and there were wounds on her exposed skin.

"So you're still too green, young lady." Jill tapped the axe in her hand, and her white clothes and red pants disappeared, returning to her original clothes.

"Could it be... that outfit is your elven magic armor?" Leora asked, struggling to her feet.

“Sana, who knows?” Gil neither confirmed nor denied. “I won this battle.”

No Game No Life Prequel Side Story Sequel

Six thousand years later.

The world has thus peacefully enjoyed six thousand years of peace.

Hughie and Rick also became husband and wife after that great battle.

Well... I don't know if Riku has escaped that tragic fate, but he and Shubi must be living a very happy life.

……

The blond youth followed the clues written in the notebook and arrived at the place before him.

"...It's kind of a relic...hmm..." The blond youth looked at the notebook in his hand, "So, I'm here to burn this notebook...?"

So the young man took out the notebook and slowly lit it.

He threw the notebook in, and it was burned to ashes.

The young man looked at the notebook and thought, "Honestly, why do I have to do all these odds and ends?"

The young man let out a breath. "Time to go to the next place."

The diary was burning in the fire.

On the cover, the name that hadn't been completely burned was still visible—

The beginning is too blurry to read, but the last four characters are—

Kaslana.

A door opened in front of the young man, who stepped inside and vanished from the world.

P.S.: I'll resume two updates a day starting tomorrow, otherwise I could just post one in the morning, it feels a bit strange...

PS2: Provided some clues about the traveler's identity. That's all. By the way, the traveler has absolutely no connection to the main storyline of Honkai Impact 3rd. If you insist on saying they're from a parallel world...

Chapter 242 Illusory Dream

"Phew...it was my carelessness." Leora looked at Gil. "Do with me as you please."

Jill raised an eyebrow.

“Then, I have only one request.” Gil chuckled softly, using the Omniscient Star to deduce what was to come, “In the finals, I will have a proper sword dance with you.”

After Gil finished speaking, he looked at Enkidu.

Enkidu shrugged, looking like he didn't care what made him happy.

Jill nodded. "Then you can go first. Anyway, I had my own purpose."

"Your own purpose?"

"Because there are still some very troublesome things to deal with."

That is the destructive factor.

To conceal himself, Gilles cannot even recklessly use the Noble Phantasm of the Gate of Babylon.

Jill smiled faintly. "Or, how about we collaborate?"

"cooperate?"

"Yes—you will assist us in the battles against other spirit users, and we will split the magic stones we obtain 60/40—we will guarantee that you can make it to the finals."

This offer is simply too generous.

"Why did you do this?" Leora frowned.

"Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed," Jill chuckled. "Aren't you leaving? Or I'll have to steal your magic stone?"

Jill was a free spirit; aside from things that would get him into trouble, he would do whatever he wanted.

Of course, whoever dared to show him murderous intent is probably still alive.

Well, there's only one person, Tsukijoin Makan, whom Jill didn't have time to settle scores with back then.

The others, some as weak as Howaki Takumin, others as strong as Gilgamesh, were all dealt with by Gil's orders or by his own hands.

After hearing Jill's words, Leora left without hesitation.

Jill looks to the future through the all-knowing and all-powerful star.

The Destruction Factor has become aware of this, and I must hide myself.

However... something doesn't feel quite right. I feel like I sensed a few familiar presences this time...

Hmm... I hope this time it goes smoothly... It's really giving me a headache, if this time—

If it's not just me, a Heroic Spirit, who has intervened in this world.

Jill turned her head and glanced at the camp, revealing a "tragic" expression.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have used the Explosion method..." Jill looked distressed.

Inject the rune into the ground, then use Explosion...

The entire ground is now charred black.

Then the tents and other things that had been set up earlier have all spiraled into the sky.
