I am Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.

It was an indescribably dark thing...

In that instant, all Jill could think of were countless negative words.

Vicious, insidious, wicked, rebellious, hypocritical, deceitful, mysterious, greedy... there were so many. Jill suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body, and his eyes were filled with coldness and hatred.

“It is far worse than all the evil in the world—” Jill gripped the sword Ea tightly, then slowly raised it.

The pitch-black objects coalesced into a human figure, which was none other than—

It resembled Jill, but this Jill was entirely black, except for its eyes, which were similar to Jill's. Although both were red, this humanoid being composed of destructive factors had ominous scarlet eyes.

"Hey, hello there—traveler," the composite humanoid chuckled mockingly.

"You bastard—you..." Jill really wanted to unseal the Ea sword and smash the guy's head in front of her.

……

"Believe me, once you see that guy, you'll definitely want to pick up the Ea and blast him to death—even three layers of seals won't be enough."

……

The wise king's words made Gil understand a little better.

"Hahahaha, your expression is really funny!" Destruction Factor laughed loudly, and Jill's face darkened slightly.

“Hey, why are you calling me ‘The Traveler’?” Jill noticed something odd and asked.

"Heh, I won't tell you, right now, only one of us can survive!" The Destruction Factor's eerie crimson eyes lit up. "That can only be me!"

“I see. So Rank A’s destructive factor even has a personality—interesting.” Jill drew upon her magic and channeled it into the sword Ea.

pat-

What is that sound?

The destructive factor slowly rose to the surface.

Then, it saw seven illusory rings at the base of the hilt of the sword Ea.

One layer after another, and then another—three layers of crimson, illusory rings shattered in total.

The Destroyer was no longer going to hold back. Its entire body surged with a dark luster, and what appeared in its hand was also the Ea, but a dark-colored Ea.

"Boom!" A surge of magical power poured into the Ea.

In this short time, Jill has already gathered quite a bit of intelligence—

First of all, unlike B-level Destruction Factors, Class A Destruction Factors possess personalities and even the ability to mimic the things in front of them.

Secondly, their physical structure makes them a disgusting thing that, if not destroyed once and for all, will linger like a maggot clinging to a bone.

Moreover, they share a common characteristic of destructive factors—that is, they can all appear in this world in the form of possession.

"When we talk about the origin, heaven and earth are separated!"

Boom——

A loud bang came from the air, the air roared, and space groaned—

"The void offers its blessing to creation; what cleaves this world apart is my sword of discord!"

The whirlwind on the blade instilled fear in the Destruction Factor below. Without hesitation, he unleashed several consecutive sword strikes, the pitch-black storm resembling the Ea sword EA's attack aimed at Jill.

"Bang!" That was the sound of a shield breaking; a massive shield, as thick as a mountain, had already appeared in front of Jill.

It was none other than the "Seven-Layered Arias of Blazing Sky (Law Aias)"!

"Ughhhhhhh!" The Ea sword, after being released from its three seals, made even the A-rank Destruction Factor feel threatened. The violent storm that could tear everything apart became even more terrifying after being released time and time again.

If the original power of the Ea was 100%, then after the first seal was broken, the power increased by 30%, reaching 130%.

After the second seal is broken, its power is 1.5 times that of breaking the first seal, and almost twice that of not breaking the seal.

After the third seal was broken, its power was twice that of the second seal... and its power was almost four times that of the seal before it was broken.

The Ea sword held in Gilles' hand, after breaking through three layers of seals, can now tear apart the space around the sword simply by being infused with magic.

Faced with this intense sense of crisis, the destructive factor roared, and the black mud beneath it began to surge.

Then, the black mud transformed into a massive, overwhelming wave that crashed down on Jill.

"In the end, it's just a counterfeit... is it..." Jill's eyes hardened. "So, is that all there is to it?"

Actually, that's not the case. Gilles completely destroyed the "Gate" through which the "Darkness from Another Dimension" flowed into the True Temple, completely sealing off the source of this destructive factor's power. Without a negative entity like "Darkness" as its source of power, the destructive factor is practically like a Servant without a mana supply.

"It's not over yet! Traveler! You started opposing us four thousand years ago, and is it still the same now!?" The Destruction Factor roared, and the black mud around him transformed into even larger waves.

Even without the supply from the [Gate], the black mud is only this much—

“Excuse me, I’m not that traveler—” Jill’s expression turned cold and ruthless, and he was fearless in the face of the overwhelming waves!

"A vortex of stars, a hell in the heavens, is the end before creation!"

The sword Ea roared and howled, and the space wept and wailed.

The torn space swallowed the ever-flowing black mud, and the attack launched by the destructive factor crumbled invisibly.

It was a miscalculation on the part of the Destructive Factor; if it hadn't possessed [Otherworldly Darkness], Jill wouldn't have been able to do it so easily. But, unfortunately, it chose [Otherworldly Darkness] as its vessel. Although Jill couldn't do anything to it before the [Gate] was destroyed by the Ea sword, but—

Jill's initial goal was to destroy the door!

"I am the King of Heroes! The oldest King of Heroes in human history!" Gil's crimson eyes shone with a light as bright as a red lotus flame, a light so intense that it was almost impossible to look directly at them.

Even the Destruction Factor, which has the same appearance as Jill, dares not look directly at that radiance.

"Be silent in death—"

"Enuma Elish!"

P.S.: Ah... Happy birthday to all the group members! Extra chapters starting...

Chapter 263 This isn't the end, see you again sometime (Second update)

At this moment.

At the spatial coordinates that Gill had calculated beforehand, an airship was floating there.

Several beams of light flashed, and a few girls landed on the airship.

"Ouch...that hurts." Lian rubbed her head. "Luckily, I used the teleportation stone in time."

"Hasn't Gil come out?" Enkidu frowned. "What about us here..."

“No, wait a little longer…” Artoria shook her head, “After all, he is facing the other side directly.”

"Hmm—this feeling—he's here!" Just then, a golden ripple appeared in the space, and a figure fell down.

"Phew...that was close..." Jill felt the cool breeze blowing on her, "but all my magic was used up, it really was..."

……

a minute ago.

"Silence in death, Enuma Elish, the star of separation between heaven and earth!" A crimson storm swept over the destructive factor, annihilating it.

The roar of the Destruction Factor could still be heard, but Jill showed no mercy, and all the black mud and Destruction Factor were annihilated.

"Huff... Huff... Huff..." Gilgamesh's Dream Summon, which uses Class Cards as a medium to integrate the power of the Wise King and Gilgamesh into himself, also consumes a huge amount of magic power.

Therefore, after the triple seal was broken and the Ea sword ravaged for a full two minutes, the Dream Summoning on Gil's body also dissipated on its own when the Ea sword ravaged.

Jill let himself be sucked into the spatial rift, because he knew that no matter what, the world would help him in this matter.

A pale blue orb of light floated up and landed on Jill.

"World fragment recovery complete - host will be forcibly repatriated from the world in five days."

……

As Jill plummeted downwards, several ripples suddenly appeared in the space, and silver chains gleaming with golden light wrapped around Jill's waist.

"Gil, hold on tight!" Enkidu's voice rang out.

Jill reached out and gripped the chains tightly.

Enkidu exerted his strength and forcefully pulled Gil onto the airship.

"Ah, I won." Gilles looked a little tired from exhaustion, but he had a smile on his face.

"He clearly overdrawn his magic power, and he still dared to do this..." Enkidu sighed.

Gil had an indifferent expression on his face, which made Enkidu want to give him a slam.

However, considering that this person was a meritorious contributor, Enkidu did not take action.

"Master, are you alright?" Lian ran up to Jill and asked.

At this moment, everyone realized—

"Lian—you call him...Master?"

Claire's voice trembled slightly.

"What's wrong? Master taught me the sword technique, Soul Flash!" Lian smiled helplessly. "Master, are you alright?"

"I got a minor injury, but it's nothing serious."

Jill tore open her coat, revealing a strange suit of armor. "But I had expected it, so I only suffered minor injuries."

That armor...

“Jil… is really cunning.” Enkidu paused for a moment, then laughed.

O sun, transform into armor (ka vacha & kundala), an armor that reduces the damage of all hostile interference (whether physical or conceptual) to one-tenth—

Jill had already put on the armor beforehand, so the attacks from the destructive factors were simply neutralized.

Jill only suffered minor injuries.

“Master…you’re so cunning…” Lian said with a bitter smile.

“Of course—now you can just awaken the Elf King.” Gil smiled. “I’m leaving.”

"Master..."

"Time is running out..." Gil smiled and ruffled Lian's hair. "Don't worry, no one will dare to make things difficult for you. Next time I come back, if you're not doing well, I'll personally go to the True Temple, drag those Elf Kings down, and give them a good beating!"
