I am Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.

After Mikawus finished chanting the incantation, a jet-black dragon descended from the sky.

Kevin snorted coldly, "Our cooperation ends here."

He turned his head, his eyes flashing with icy light. "Don't give me a chance, or I will kill you on the spot."

"You bastard...!" Anya tried to rush forward, but found a gun pointed at her.

Anya then noticed that Kevin had always carried two handguns.

A chill ran down her spine.

If she had rushed forward just now, wouldn't that mean this man would have killed them all?

Although Anya was unwilling to accept this fact, she still obediently stopped where she was and did not make any further moves.

“Little girl, if I really wanted to kill you, bang—you’d be dead, you know?” Kevin mocked Anya mercilessly as he jumped back. “Go back and drink milk for another two years, little girl.”

“Lord Mikawus, is this really how it is…” Anya looked at Mikawus.

Mikawus shook his head. "If I could, I really wouldn't want to be enemies with that man. After all, he came out of the desert all by himself back then... The desert is so dangerous, and there are so many dangerous creatures there. The fact that he could come out alone proves his strength, doesn't it?"

……

St. Dalmatian Square has descended into chaos.

Locals and tourists alike stood motionless, frozen in place.

Instead of fleeing for their lives, everyone stood frozen in place, looking up at the monster before them.

The reason was simple: the giant dragon had attracted everyone's attention.

Its entire body is covered in hair, and it looks somewhat like a holy dragon.

However, its body hair was dark gray, quite unlike the holy dragon that symbolizes light. Moreover, it emitted a putrid stench, which was extremely unpleasant.

The dragon was also quite large.

St. D'Arm Square can accommodate about a thousand people at a time, and now about a quarter of that space is occupied by the dragon that seems to have descended from the sky. When the dragon simply raises its head, its height rivals that of the surrounding towers.

A terrifying roar, shaking the very soul, echoed through the dark sky.

The dragon's roar was like hundreds of horns playing discordant sounds at the same time, seemingly capable of waking even the dead who had been sleeping on the ground.

The deafening roar caused a whirlwind that toppled the statues in the square.

Soon after, a nauseating stench filled the square.

Only then did the crowd in the square begin to scatter and flee, but faced with this surreal situation, the situation was clearly out of control. Despite the efforts of Ansari security officials to maintain order, they were unable to control the panicked crowd.

The vast square resembled a living hell. Countless customers poured out of the shops surrounding the square, and the fleeing crowds trampled each other, resulting in incalculable deaths and injuries.

"Shut up, it's so noisy!"

At that moment, a figure clad in crimson armor suddenly appeared, its crimson light carrying intense wind pressure, instantly sweeping towards the giant dragon.

Boom——!

The crimson wind pressure exploded instantly, revealing a crimson armored figure adorned with emerald jade standing there.

The gray-black dragon was sent flying by a single punch from the figure, rolling several times on the ground before coming to a stop.

"Why do you dragons all love to roar so much..." Jill landed on the ground, her crimson eyes flashing with an extremely cold light.

“That’s…!” At that moment, a voice rang out from behind Jill.

Jill turned her head to the side.

It was Ash Blake, and his Pal named Echo.

"Who are you?" Rebecca stared at Jill, her eyes filled with doubt.

Gil is now concealing his face with the "Balance Breaker" armor of the Crimson Dragon Emperor's gauntlets, and his aura is also masked by Draig's aura. Although his presence is still incredibly strong, Rebecca has no way of recognizing him.

"Is that important?"

Jill turned her head and asked.

Rebecca stared nervously at the person in front of her.

He wore a suit of crimson armor, the kind I'd never seen before. It exuded an aura similar to paladin armor, and carried the scent of a dragon...

"Are you a Holy Dragon Knight?" Rebecca asked, slightly relaxing.

The Holy Dragon Knights are all renowned figures, and almost all of them are loyal to the royal family of the Kingdom of Loreiamon.

Although not all of them were loyal, all the Holy Dragon Knights were from the Kingdom of Loreamon, which is why Rebecca relaxed a little.

“I’m not some Holy Dragon Knight,” Gil shrugged. “You can call me [Red Dragon Emperor].

Having only regained the power of Draig for the time being, he is indeed the "Red Dragon Emperor." Although he prefers to be called the Hero King, no legend of him has been left in this world, so even if he calls himself that, no one will know.

Instead of wasting time and energy, we should use a different term.

"The Crimson Dragon Emperor...?" Rebecca pondered for a moment. "A name I've never heard of..."

“You don’t need to have heard of it.” Jill picked up the driver and placed it on her waist.

Silver and crimson bottles appeared in Jill's hands.

Jill shook the bottle in her hand, then turned the cap upright and placed the bottle into the slot on the driver.

"Penesas! Welsh Dragon!"

"Best match!"

"Merge, transform, descend! The radiant Crimson Dragon King! Yeah!"

Countless golden patterns appeared on Gil's Crimson Dragon Emperor Armor, and a pair of pure white, snow-white wings unfolded from his back.

Pegasus's abilities are "space jump" and "purification," making it perfectly suited to deal with the gray-black creature in front of it, which is clearly not a living being but a dragon resembling an undead.

"You're going to go head-to-head with that Corpse Ash Dragon?" A hint of surprise flashed in Rebecca's eyes.

“So that’s called the Corpse Ash Dragon…” Jill turned the handle, and at the same time, all the gems on her body began to light up.

"Just let it return to where it belongs, right?" Jill's light suddenly dimmed.

A golden sphere of light had appeared in his hand.

“Penesas Finsh!”

The golden orb of light instantly traversed space and landed directly on the Corpse Ash Dragon opposite.

Suddenly, the dragon's body shattered into pieces, like a fragile piece of paper.

The severely damaged body turned into gray particles and vanished with the wind.

Chapter 105 Kevin, Jill

"...The experiment has failed. Let's retreat," Mikawus said, looking at the dissipating clouds.

The greatsword in his hand is both a device for summoning the Corpse Ash Dragon and a device for controlling it.

The device has now lost its connection, meaning the Corpse Dragon is dead; there is no other explanation.

Mikawus made no further comment. He silently sheathed his greatsword and stared at Anya through his mask.

"Retreat."

Mikawus issued the order in a cold tone.

Anya immediately knelt down, lowered her head, and answered obediently.

"...as you command."

……

"So weak... It seems those few times of doubling power were a waste of a lot of energy." Jill clicked her tongue and withdrew her hand.

The opponent is completely purified by the three-fold increase in the Tenma Bottle finishing move.

“The Corpse Ash Dragon has been purified… Crimson Dragon Emperor, I’m now more curious about what kind of face you have under your mask.” Rebecca said, looking at Gil.

Indeed, that ability is clearly driven by "magic".

However, the humans in this world do not possess magic.

Unless it involves borrowing the power of the dragon race, such as the Holy Sky Dragon Knights who are rare even in the entire Kingdom of Loreiamon, or using the magical engineering of Dragon Crystal, it can only be used with the help of the dragon race's magic.

The person before him called himself the Crimson Dragon Emperor…

"Could it be that you are not human?" Rebecca wondered.

Indeed, if humans cannot possess magic, then the only remaining possibility is that they are not human.

After all, there's already one dragon that can transform into a human, isn't there?

Jill tilted her head. "You'll find out someday, but not now."

His figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

……

“…Is that so? So that’s why you asked me to get some Imaginary Seed Bottles in the first place.” On the rooftop, Kevin stared at the Full Bottle on Jill’s belt and nodded.

"However, I remember that girl will be coming over in a while... I should pay her a visit, after all, she's been here for over ten years... she's practically her mentor after all..."

Kevin took out a cigarette, instinctively reaching for his pistol to light it, and then...

"...I forgot this isn't the Judgment of Heavenly Fire..." Kevin covered his face when he saw Thor's Hammer in his hand.

Only someone like you, who has fused with the genes of the Emperor Honkai Beast, can use the Judgment of Heaven to light a cigarette at will. Anyone else would probably be roasted alive!

He obediently picked up a lighter, lit a cigarette, and looked at the world around him while puffing out smoke.

"...That's why I'm going to do everything in my power to protect this world..."

Kevin suddenly whispered something.

Just then, a series of beeping sounds rang out. Kevin took his phone out of his pocket and glanced at the words on it.

The next second, he quickly burned the cigarette in his hand and then answered the phone.

"Hello, Elodie? Ah, I know... Don't worry, I'm taking good care of myself... Really, really."

The young man had a gentle smile on his face, so handsome that it was almost impossible to look away.
