I am Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.

Jill gently stroked Esther's head. Esther seemed to be awakened by Jill's action, and she raised her head slightly, her mysterious purplish-blue eyes meeting Jill's eyes.

Jill was charmed for a moment.

"Good morning, Gil." Esther nuzzled Gil's hand, a gesture that resembled a small animal's affectionate cuddling, which made Gil smile slightly.

This girl is so cute.

"Good morning, Esther." Gil patted Esther's little head. "Time to get up."

"Hmm... Brother Gil, pat on the head."

"Alright, alright..." Jill could only pat Esther's little head again.

“Get up, Gil…” Enkidu poked his head in from outside the tent, his face showing a look of complete indifference. “That girl came last night.”

"Okay, I understand." Gil noticed the strange expression on Enkidu's face. "What's wrong?"

“Gil, I remember you saying to someone, ‘Put down your sword and become my wife,’ right?”

“…No, no.” Jill laughed. “I’ve never done anything like that.”

Damn it! That immature chuunibyou! The whole world knows what you've done!

Isn't that the line that that chuunibyou (delusional) idiot said to Artoria?

Wait a minute... doesn't this mean...?

Gil looked at Enkidu with a questioning gaze.

Enkidu nodded, confirming Gil's guess.

Gil's eyes instantly turned helpless. He then wrapped Esther up like a spring roll and tossed it to Enkidu.

“I’ll go take a look…” Jill said, putting on her coat.

“Oh, right, Gil.” Enkidu called out to Gil.

"kindness?"

“The one who came is blue, it’s okay.” Enkidu gave a thumbs up.

...Blue...What should I do? I'm a little panicked.

Without the Gate of Babylon, I can't stop that guy...

“Fine, let’s go take a look.” Jill straightened her collar. “We have to talk, don’t we?”

“That’s right, it’s chosen you, Gil!” Enkidu laughed happily.

“I’m not some kind of Pokemon,” Jill said with a helpless smile. “I’ll go find them and talk to them about a collaboration.”

……

"Not here yet? That's just like that guy's style." The blonde, blue-eyed girl looked at Ren with a threatening gaze.

"Master was on night watch last night, so it's understandable that he stayed up a little late." Lian had seen Jill get angry before, and the pressure emanating from Jill at that time was much stronger than that of the girl in front of her. Naturally, Lian wasn't afraid of the girl in front of her.

"..." Artoria narrowed her eyes.

After all, she was inexplicably tricked and thrown into this backyard by several big shots on the front lines. And since there are destructive factors in this world, she naturally has to take action to eliminate them.

But now that I hear that annoying guy is here too, I naturally have to come over and discuss it.

Although in her impression the other party was arrogant (looking down on everyone) and incredibly immature (constantly spouting nonsense), she was certain that the other party would not let that destructive factor run rampant.

So after listening to her teammates' report yesterday, she immediately agreed to the alliance.

Although I'm not really keen on teaming up with that guy, I have to put up with it for the sake of dealing with the Destruction Factor.

"I heard you've come, Artoria." The blond youth in uniform finally appeared. "So, shall we discuss the alliance?"

Chapter 244 The Successor of the Former Demon King and the Elf Princess of Calamity

Artoria frowned slightly.

Not because of anything else.

The person in front of me seems to be a little different from the hero I know.

Putting everything else aside, he seems to look younger, his temper isn't too bad, he refers to himself as "I" instead of "this king," and he doesn't seem to address others as "bastard"...

It's completely transformed!

"What's wrong? Not used to it? Then let me try to talk to you differently..." Seeing Artoria's expression, Gil roughly understood what Artoria was thinking.

"Saber, have you come to see me this time about an alliance?" Gilles sat in his chair, one hand propping up his chin. "Did you bring those bastards behind you here to seek an alliance with me?"

"...No, King of Heroes, let's switch back to how we used to talk..." Artoria wore a complicated expression.

Growing up is terrifying.

I once met the Conqueror King when he was a child, and my jaw almost dislocated...

Time is a cruel mistress; how can a perfectly healthy person be turned into such a middle-aged person with delusions of grandeur?

Thinking of this, Artoria's eyes filled with pity.

Artoria's gaze towards Gil instantly displeased Gil.

“Didn’t we agree to come here to discuss the alliance?” Jill scratched her head. “Hurry up.”

“I’m just curious about what you’ve been through,” Artoria said.

"Stop trying to dodge my questions," Jill slammed her hand on the table. "Hurry up."

The atmosphere around these two was very tense, and the other team members couldn't get close at all.

The two kings began to discuss what to do next.

But it seems like they can't reach an agreement at all.

The smell of gunpowder gradually grew stronger.

The two eventually reached an agreement and finalized the alliance.

……

"Why did this happen..." Lian sighed helplessly.

The two of them eventually agreed not to make a move...

Are you kidding me? You two spent half an hour discussing and arguing over such a simple thing?

There was also negotiation regarding the spoils of war, and which teams to eliminate first.

"Stop sighing, Kazehaya Kamito—" Leora stared ahead, "prioritize eliminating the Apostles of Purgatory, otherwise there will be very difficult battles later."

“No… it’s just that Master is arrogant and proud. He will definitely fight that Ren Ashbell one-on-one.” Ren gave a wry smile. “We’re responsible for keeping the others occupied. But the others aren’t so easy to deal with either.”

“It doesn’t matter—as long as we go together, ten against three, how can we possibly lose?” Leora frowned. “It’s just that I really don’t want it to be like this.”

"By the way, what is your person in charge of?"

Your master said—

……

"I'm in charge of the successor to the former Demon King?" Artoria looked at Gil.

“Well, I originally wanted you to deal with that imposter, Lian Ashbell,” Gilles said. “But since he’s impersonating my apprentice, I’ve decided to take matters into my own hands.”

"Who is the successor of the former Demon King?"

“His name is Nipanster Roa, the former Demon King's successor summoned by the imposter Len Ashbell using forbidden techniques. His true identity is a product of the Demon King's will materialized, and he can also be considered the Demon King's illegitimate son. He is extremely powerful, capable of releasing chains that steal the power of Kamui to strengthen himself.” Gil glanced at Artoria, “Be careful.”

Thus, Artoria's worldview was once again shattered.

Are you kidding me?! The King of Heroes cares about people?!

No, that's not right! My values!

My worldview has been completely shattered!

"...I'm saying, you don't have memories of parallel worlds, do you?" Jill also sensed that the Artoria in front of her didn't seem to have the ability to share memories of parallel worlds.

“I ran into you once before, don’t worry, it was back when I saw you and Shirou Emiya.” Gilles looked at the map in his hand. “Alright, they’re coming—you deal with Nippanster Roa, and I’ll handle the imposter Ren Ashbell—”

So Gil reached out his hand and began chanting the incantation to release the spirit magic—

Cold-blooded steel queen, holy sword that slays demons and monsters—transform into a steel sword here and grant me divine power!

Gilles held the silver holy sword in his hand.

Jill suddenly rushed out.

"Soul Flash - Moon Chaser!" Considering that the opponent might have some terrible things that would be troublesome for him, Gil's initial attack was not a direct close-range Soul Flash - One Star, but rather Soul Flash - Moon Chaser as a precaution.

A crescent-shaped sword aura swept past, but Ren Ashbell reacted quickly, dodging Gil's attack by sidestepping, and then looked at Gil.

"Don't make that scary face, Len Ashbell." Gilles gave a helpless smile. "There are some things I already knew."

"Or should I call you—Rubia Elstein?" Gil smiled faintly, ignoring the fairy girl whose face had turned terrifying, Miuya, and the witch.

"..." Ren Ashbell—no, it should be Rubia Elstein—was silent for a moment before removing her mask.

"How did you guess that?"

“It’s not a guess, it’s something I can find out if I want to.” Jill shrugged. “Besides, I personally taught my apprentice. If it were her, this Soul Flash Chasing Moon attack should have been neutralized by Soul Flash Chasing Moon.”

As Gilles uttered those words that would make the whole world know she was the "strongest sword dancer," her heart pounding, she gripped her sword, saying, "And my target is you—"

"So come with me obediently!"

A flash of light appeared, and Gilgamesh was covered in golden armor. He used Archer's class card to enhance his attributes.

In fact, Gil only recently discovered that his class card's enhancement was not based on a fixed value, but rather on a percentage.

When Gilles uses Archer's own class card, all his stats increase by two small levels, and even his Strength and Endurance increase by a large level.

He suddenly lunged out, grabbed Rubia by the collar, and charged into the depths of the forest.

Artoria also rushed out and kicked the black-armored knight away, sending him flying. The black-armored knight was then carried away in another direction by Artoria.

……

Jill saw a lake ahead and then swung her arm violently—
