I am Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.

Of course, this also includes the demons who are the subjects of the research. In return, these demons who help operate the special zone will be given corresponding citizen rights, and they can study, work, and live like humans.

Itogami City is a model city where demons and humans coexist.

In another sense, this is also the threshold of a huge laboratory.

The demons wore on their wrists were demon registration cards with built-in liveness sensors, magic sensing devices, and transmitters.

"Ha, this is really interesting." Jill turned off her phone screen. "This is really interesting..."

……

While the Gate of Babylon cannot be used to project weapons, it serves as a decent storage facility.

So Jill bought a house.

This is a place that resembles an apartment—or rather, after Jill decorated it, it doesn't look like an apartment at all.

The suite was big enough for three or four people. Jill went to the living room, turned on the newly installed air conditioner, and felt like she had entered paradise.

"For the first time, I truly appreciate how great an invention air conditioning is." Jill took off her shirt, revealing herself in just a short-sleeved shirt on the living room sofa. "Hmm... I should have given her a bigger tip earlier?"

That's quite a lot, Jill... You know, tipping involves throwing gold coins?

Jill turned on the TV and rediscovered a long-lost feeling.

“This kind of life is nice—but it can get boring after a while…” Jill thought to herself.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Jill found it strange.

While it's customary in Japan for new neighbors to greet each other, isn't this happening way too fast?

So Jill got up and opened the door.

Standing outside the door was a blonde girl whose face immediately reminded one of a king who didn't understand human nature, but her "human nature" was far greater than Artoria's.

To Jill's even greater surprise, the girl's eyes lit up the moment she saw Jill, and she happily rushed over and hugged Jill's neck.

Then, she let out a crisp, clear call—

"elder brother!"

Chapter 265 Nangong Nayue (Sixth Update!)

"...Huh!?" Even with Jill's brilliant mind, she didn't realize what had happened for a moment.

Hey, can anyone tell me what happened?

Jill's mind went blank for a moment, but he quickly recovered.

“I’m not your brother!” Jill said bluntly, pulling the girl off her and grabbing her by the back of her collar.

“…” Jill narrowed his eyes. He recognized the girl in front of him at a glance and even figured out her real name.

“Nero Claudius?” Gilles frowned. “I’m not your brother, what are you doing?”

“You’re not Yu’s brother? Impossible! That’s exactly what the white-haired deity in my dream said!” Nero said with absolute certainty.

"The white-haired deity in my dream?" Jill narrowed her eyes. "Is he a guy who carries a wooden staff, wears flashy clothes, and leaves flowers everywhere he goes?"

"Hmm? Huh? Brother, how did you know all of this?"

"I'm not your brother, call me Hero King!"

"Okay, brother, no problem, brother!"

"..." Did Nero get his head kicked or slammed in a door?!

Jill was a little angry, but thinking of that bastard Merlin, she first dragged Nero to her own sofa and said, "Tell me, why do you think I'm your brother?"

"Hmm... I remember it was about half a year ago... I think I lost my memory because of a car accident. Ever since then, I've been having the same dream. Every day, that white-haired immortal will appear in my dream holding a picture of you, brother, and tell me that you are my brother..."

"..." Jill practically gritted her teeth, forcing out a sentence, "And then you believed it?"

"Yeah."

Jill wondered if Merlin had survived this long because he was too shameless, or because those people were too kind.

Tch, if things have turned out this way, it's all Merlin's fault!

"Tch... never mind, there are rooms over there, go pick one yourself." After thinking it over, Gilgamesh finally decided to keep Nero behind.

After all, we all come from the Type-Moon universe, so let's just consider it as raising another cute girl...

Anyway, I'm not short of money~

After Nero went inside to tidy up his room, Jill focused her attention on the computer on the side.

Anyway, I don't seem to have anything else to do... so I might as well start trading stocks...

As for side quests? Jill's experience told him that he could complete them by simply letting things take their course.

……

So Jill took Nero into her home, essentially taking in a homeless fellow villager.

It would be perfect if this fellow villager didn't call me "brother".

Jill was yawning as she bought a stock, intending to sell it in three days.

Rather, I'd say... this is a really boring time.

Jill put her feet up on the table, looking completely nonchalant.

The cloth bag containing the 3rd and 2nd relics was hanging next to the chair.

Nero is already asleep.

However, Jill was somewhat surprised that she actually had friends?

“My friend…” Jill looked out the window; the moon was exceptionally bright tonight.

“…” Jill stood up, picked up his uniform from the Aresia Academy and put it on, and also took out the 3rd Relic from a bag on one side.

There's a presence approaching here.

With that thought in mind, Jill pushed open the window and, without caring that it was the seventh floor, jumped out.

The height of only seven floors was nothing to Jill. After landing steadily on the ground, Jill sensed the rich magical aura that began to emerge around her.

"...What brings you out here?" Jill swung her longsword, which unleashed a burst of sword energy, deflecting a chain that was wrapped around her.

A figure appeared not far away; it was the figure of a girl… no, rather than a girl, it was more like a young girl. Her facial features and physique were both small, and she looked like a doll.

The girl had clear blue eyes and long black hair. To Jill's dismay, she was carrying a parasol even late at night.

The girl held a folding fan in one hand, partially obscuring her face. She appeared completely harmless.

However, Gilgamesh could sense a considerable magical aura emanating from the girl, at least comparable to that of Artoria when she wasn't using Excalibur.

Moreover, appearing out of thin air—there's a high probability that it's a user of spatial magic.

"Who are you?" Gil raised the 3rd Relic and pointed the blade at the other person.

“That’s a question I should be asking—who are you? And what’s your relationship with my student?” the girl asked.

“Your student…” Jill paused, “You mean Nero?”

“That’s right, she has an older brother or something, I’ve never heard of him—her household registration doesn’t show that you have an older brother either, and you’re a very strange person, no matter how I look, there doesn’t seem to be any household registration for you—you’re very suspicious.” The girl snapped her folding fan shut, revealing a doll-like, exquisite face, and said.

“Ha…Indeed, I only arrived at Itogami Island today—and I even got in by improper means.” Gil chuckled, admitting it so frankly.

If traveling between worlds isn't considered an improper means, then I really can't think of anything improper.

In just this short exchange, Jill had already gleaned a considerable amount of information.

First, this girl is very likely a so-called "magician" or someone who uses spatial magic.

Secondly, since the girl is the teacher and Nero is her student, it can be speculated that Nero's previous identity may have been tampered with—which is why he can appear as a student.

I just don't know if that person is still around.

This point still needs to be discussed, but...

"If you landed on the island by improper means, then I will have no choice but to arrest you!"

"Clang!" A chain, like a venomous snake, tightened around Jill's neck. This time, Jill clearly saw how her opponent used the chain—

Those were purple magic circles, and when the chains shot towards Jill, they even created spatial fluctuations.

"It really is a space-type!" Gil raised the 3rd Relic in his hand, "Soul Flash - Triple Strike!"

Three flashes of light rose up, breaking the chains.

"You've got some skill..." The girl stretched out her hand, preparing to launch another attack.

Unfortunately--

"I won't let you get away with this!"

Soul Flash · Shadow Step!

His speed increased rapidly from 0 to maximum, and he quickly arrived beside the girl. Gil swung his sword backhand.

"Click—" The chains blocked Jill's attack.

"...Very good, you were able to exchange a few blows with me...impressive." The girl said, her blue eyes filled with an inscrutable emotion.

"...Likewise—"

"The Witch of the Gap, Nangong Nayue".

P.S.: Let me out, I can still write!

Chapter 266 I will spare no effort to turn this place into dust!

"You know my name? Then which faction sent you?" The girl, Nangong Nayue, whose real name had been called, stared at Jill with a hint of doubt in her azure eyes.

“Well, they’d have to be qualified first—” Jill scoffed, “But I guess all witches have such similar thought processes…”

Indeed, Grevas said the same thing to Jill. It seems there are quite a few "powers" in this world, right?

However, I have no interest in those forces.
