I am Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.

Several days have passed, and the community members who participated in the Harvest Festival have all returned.

"Hey, we're back, little one. Look, this is a gift for you." The blond problem child stared intently at Jill's head as soon as he returned, ready to rub it at any moment.

But this time Jill was very alert. She dodged the troublemaker's clutches and then took the gift from his hand.

"Thanks, Izayoi." Gil tossed the gift in his hand. "However, I can't just touch my head whenever I want, so thank you for the gift."

"..." Izayoi clicked her tongue. "How boring. I thought you would have some special reaction."

"For example?"

"It gets all pricked up when I pat its head, like that."

"Guna!"

And so, Izayoi was greeted once again by a flurry of Noble Phantasms.

Izayoi and Gilgamesh were bickering, and Black Rabbit, watching this scene, remarked, "Are they actually getting along quite well?"

“Maybe?” Kasukabe Yo pointed to Gil’s side. “Gil always uses those things to smash Izayoi.”

“Don’t worry, Gil knows what he’s doing. Those are the worst items in Gil’s collection. Even if you get hit, you’ll only be bedridden for three to five months at most, right?” Enkidu said.

Lying in bed for three to five months?

Are you kidding me? Just hitting it once?

“Oh, right, when I said ‘hit,’ I meant being hit by the aftershocks of an attack. If it hit you directly, a weapon like a longsword could pierce through your body and completely tear your muscles apart; an iron bar could completely shatter your bones—oh, all the bones in your body.” Enkidu gestured. “Even a slight graze from the highest-grade collection can be fatal, you know?”

At this moment, Black Rabbit realized that Izayoi was actually quite powerful; he could even catch such attacks with his bare hands...

I admire you.

"Oh..." Lian saw an unexpected person.

That was a griffin.

The griffin is a legendary creature.

It has the body and claws of a lion, the head and wings of an eagle, and is a well-known fantasy creature.

Because lions and eagles reign supreme on land and in the sky respectively, griffins are considered very powerful animals.

"..." However, the griffin seemed to have lost its wings and had some wounds on its body.

"Hello, I am Ren, Ren Ashbell."

Lian greeted the griffin.

The griffin could understand human speech and nodded slightly at Lian.

“It is Gree,” Kasukabe Yo said, “and also a partner of our community.”

“A phantom beast?” Gilles said, glancing at Gree as he frantically hurled Noble Phantasms at Izayoi. “Well, he’s a rather cute fellow.”

cute?

Izayoi's lips twitched.

Your Majesty the Hero King... that guy is supposed to be one of the most handsome griffins, but he's male... isn't "cute" a bit inappropriate?

"Well done, little brother, you took down a pureblood dragon all by yourself! You know, that's one of the strongest species." Izayoi casually threw a punch, deflecting Gilles' Noble Phantasm that was launched from his blind spot, and said.

“It’s just that we have the advantage in weaponry, that’s all.” Jill scoffed. “Damn, that was quick.”

Pureblooded dragons are not "born," but rather "occur."

Or to put it another way, the birth of pure-blooded dragons is like a natural phenomenon; they can suddenly appear at any time.

A species formed one day without warning by a powerful force—this is the pureblood dragon.

In their offspring, pureblood dragons can only reproduce by monstrous reproduction to produce purebloods. If they mate with other species, they will produce sub-dragons.

It is said that every pure-blooded dragon possesses an unimaginably enormous body.

Just like the giant dragon that Leticia summoned before, one of its heads was so big that it could blot out the sky.

Furthermore, pure-blooded dragons can split from their scales and create new races. Although they are not as powerful as Az Dakkaha, who can create a horde of gods on his own, none of the summoned monsters are weak.

However, when Jill attacked the dragon that day, she chose to attack from the weakest point where the scales were interlocked, so the dragon not only bled profusely but also lost a lot of scales.

The magical beasts formed from those scales could cause considerable harm, but Gil wasn't fighting the dragon alone; the magical beasts formed from the falling scales were all dealt with by the White Yaksha.

However, the fact that Gil managed to slash the dragon with such a wound has been passed down among those in the outer sect who witnessed this scene.

However, Jill didn't care about these rumors and gossip; what she cared about more was how to awaken her simulated cosmology.

"By the way, Ren, there's something I need to tell you." Jill walked up to Ren and whispered a few words to him.

A look of surprise flashed in Ren's eyes.

"Don't tell anyone," Jill said to Ren, then walked towards the main building. "Everyone, let's not stand here anymore, let's go back to the main building first."

Let's discuss His Highness's matter at this community meeting.

……

Jill used to rarely... no, she never attended community meetings.

The reason is simple...

"It's too boring, all trivial things, I'm not interested."

See how willful he is?

That's why, when everyone saw Gille take his seat in Enkidu's place, where he usually attended the meeting in Gille's place, the scene was almost completely silent.

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm telling you, the sun's risen in the west! This little guy actually came to the meeting?!" Izayoi, sitting below Gil, pinched Gil's cheek in surprise. "You must be a fake."

"Bang!" A dull sound rang out, and Gil looked at Izayoi with a forced smile. "You really have a lot of guts, Izayoi-kun."

"Hey little brother, it seems you're not planning to go easy on me, are you?" Izayoi caught Gil's fist, his expression mirroring Gil's, a forced smile on his face.

"Anyway, you're tough as nails. Even Weser, who gained godhood, couldn't kill you with that earth-shattering blow. What am I afraid of?" Jill's smile remained bright. "No problem, take my sixteen-times-enhanced punch!"

"I do not want it."

"You're a perfect punching bag, Izayoi-kun."

"I prefer hitting the punching bag to being the punching bag."

“Master, don’t rush. You can fight in the abandoned area later. But for now, how about we hold a meeting first?” Leticia coughed lightly, reminding Jill that he had something important to say.

“Tch, I see.” Gil clicked his tongue. “Well then, Ren, you can declare the meeting open. Sorry for the commotion just now.”

Chapter 486 Master, White Yaksha needs to see you!

night.

The meeting ended three hours ago.

After dinner, Jill lay on the grass with her eyes closed.

Although he appears to be sleeping, he is actually more awake than anyone else.

"Jill, what are you thinking about? Lying down without moving after dinner will make you fat, you know?"

Enkidu sat down next to Gil and asked.

“…I’m thinking about something.” Jill opened her eyes, her eyes flashing like blood and flames. “Something very important.”

"Is it something important? Is it Anna-chan or Illya-chan?"

"puff……"

Jill made a slightly comical sound, "I'm really thinking about something serious, I don't have time to think about those kids!"

"Oh, I see, you're thinking about Shana-chan, aren't you?"

“…Tsk, I was just wondering if you could use Another cosmology.” Jill clicked her tongue and sat up.

“Another cosmology?” Enkidu blinked. “What’s that?”

Gilles explained the concept of Another cosmology, saying, "Although our Noble Phantasms are different, they are both Enuma Elish, so I was wondering if you could use this ability."

“…I could never use it.” Enkidu chuckled. “Because a dead doll is not worthy of the title of the center of the gods.”

Snapped--

Jill pressed Enkidu's face down and forced her onto the grass.

“…I won’t allow you to say that.” Jill’s expression was calm.

But Enkidu understood that Gil was angry.

“You are my friend, you can cry, laugh, get angry, and feel sad… You are my one and only friend. You are human, not a doll.” Gil looked intently at Enkidu. “You have always been here. You are alive, so you can’t say what you just said.”

Enkidu stared at Gil in a daze, then chuckled softly.

"...What? (///￣皿￣)○～" Jill looked annoyed and angry. "Don't laugh!"

"Alright, alright, stop laughing..." Enkidu picked up Gil and put him aside. "It was just a sigh."

“It’s been a long time…” Enkidu picked up Gil, “We haven’t had a heart-to-heart talk like this in two or three months, have we?”

“…Hmm.” Gilles leaned against Enkidu and said, “However, I may have a war I have to face next.”

"I can……"

“No…you might not be able to help me…” Gil looked at Enkidu, “That monster…is not a match for me either. If I don’t go all out from the start, I might even be killed instantly.”

This is not Jill's assessment, but the assessment of a wise man.

“That’s alright… Before that, how about trusting your partner?” Enkidu asked.

“…” Gilles pulled away from Enkidu’s embrace and looked at the starry sky. “I can feel it… no, I see it.”

Gilles' eyes were fixed on the starry sky, but Enkidu knew that Gilles was not actually looking at the stars.

“!” Jill’s pupils contracted.

“…Enkidu, I never thought I’d be facing such a difficult choice.” Gilles said with a wry smile.

"Why?" Enkidu blinked and asked.

“These things are too complicated…” Jill rubbed her head and sighed.
