I am Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.

"on!"

"Elf Magic, Ready!"

Countless flashing impacts hurtled towards Jill—

However, the result was regrettable.

"Boom boom boom boom boom!"

A massive explosion instantly resounded through the sky, but the impact—

"Weak, weak! You can't even penetrate my armor?!"

Jill shook her head. "Then, let's begin."

"Max Harzed on!"

"Harzed Dragon Attack!"

The white light instantly transformed into countless tiny orbs of light, which then descended from the sky—

The tiny orbs of light don't appear to be very large at first glance; they look at most the size of a grape.

but……

"Boom——!"

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom— Boom—"

It was as if a depth charge had been dropped into the water, with countless explosions erupting below.

Those energy orbs displayed an explosive power completely contrary to their appearance; in just an instant, the entire camp below was annihilated amidst explosions and screams—

"...Hmph, I'm not interested anymore. They're just a bunch of ants." Jill scoffed, disarmed himself, and quickly disappeared into the sky.

Enkidu looked at the mess in front of him and gave a wry smile.

I'm so angry I can't stand it anymore...

"At least be careful not to harm the earth and the flowers and plants..."

Enkidu complained and quickly followed in the direction Gil had gone.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Holy Kingdom's operation this time should have been completely thwarted.

……

"Ultimate Sword Technique - Heavenly Flash Strike!" Lian used all her strength, and Heavenly Flash Strike instantly pierced through Grevas's shoulder, sending her flying and crashing into a boulder.

"Huff...huff...huff..." Lian lowered her sword and breathed softly.

Even a powerful sword dancer like Ren was panting after using this incredibly powerful move.

【Heavenly Flash Strike】Puts a heavy burden on the body, and after each use, the body will be temporarily unable to move.

In comparison, while skills like Po Jun may not be as sudden and terrifying as Tian Jue Shan Chong in terms of ability and effect, Po Jun has the advantage of having no side effects. Moreover, as long as the power output is controlled, Po Jun can be freely varied during its execution.

"Ha...ha...I won, Grevas." Ren walked step by step toward Grevas, who had almost lost the ability to fight.

Grevas looked at Lian and chuckled softly.

"What are you laughing at?" Lian frowned.

"Of course I'm laughing at your soft heart... Aren't you afraid I'll do this to you...!"

“Of course she has nothing to be afraid of.” A hand gripped the blood-red demonic sword. Despite holding the sword, the silver-armored hand showed no signs of damage and continued to shimmer with a white luster.

The armor on that white figure looked strangely familiar from Lian's perspective.

"Master..."

An incredible light shone in Lian's eyes.

“Well done, Lian, you’ve become even more capable than I imagined…” Jill’s voice carried a hint of amusement. “Leave the rest to me.”

Then, with a flash of silver light, the Demon Slayer appeared in Jill's hand—

It pierced through Grevas's heart.

……

“…Huff…” Sitting on the broken city wall, Kevin exhaled a deep breath.

"Damn it, this is the seventh round." He channeled Honkai energy into the Heavenly Judgment in his hand once more. "Seriously, have these guys gone mad? Why are they starting to riot..."

Outside the city walls, there were only dark, shadowy things.

If you look closely, you'll find all sorts of strange monsters hidden within those dark objects.

[Kevin, how is it?]

Otto's voice came through the communicator, and Kevin replied, "There are too many small fry; it's hard to confirm the situation behind enemy lines."

"Is that so...? That's terrible."

“Kill as many as they come.” Kevin slowly raised the Heavenly Judgment in his hand. “They’re just Rank D possessed creatures.”

Okay, then... wait, what's going on?! This guy's data over here...!

Chapter Seventy: Dividing the Army into Two Groups

"You can no longer stay here in the Dragon Kingdom."

In the conference room, Jill addressed Lian in this way.

This was five days after Grevas's attack.

The Holy Kingdom should have already noticed that Lian is here, and a large force will likely arrive soon.

“Master…” Lian looked at Gil, whose face was still somewhat cold and hard, who had made the decision.

“I know you don’t really want to leave here either, so I plan to split up into two groups when the time comes.”

Jill slowly began to speak, then unfolded the map in her hand and placed it on the table.

"First is the Alphas Theocracy. After careful consideration, I believe that while we should try to gain influence in that region, it is not necessary to do so here."

Jill glanced at the door without changing her expression. "Now, I need to find the truth about the original [Solomon]. In the meantime, do your best to gain the support of the forces within the Alphas Theocracy."

“Jill, I don’t think this will work.”

Sure enough, the person outside pushed the door open and entered.

Enkidu looked at Gilles, "Back then..."

As a close friend, Gil naturally knew what Enki was worried about.

If the fact that "Lotus" is a woman were to be exposed, it would surely shake the morale of the entire Alphas theocracy.

Because the original "Demon King Solomon" was a legitimate male.

However, if Enki could think of it, Gil could certainly think of it too.

"So I prepared some things..."

Gil paused for a moment, then took out a small medicine bottle.

"I don't intend to use this casually, so just continue with your usual disguise for now. Only use it if you're truly forced into a corner."

The liquid in that bottle had an incredibly strange color, like sewage mixed with strawberry-flavored milk.

Lian stared at the bottle for a long time, then asked with a wry smile, "Master, did you take the wrong bottle?"

"...Oh, I took the wrong one."

Jill glanced at the color of the potion bottle in her hand, then took out a bottle of white potion. "This is a potion that can temporarily reverse gender. The previous bottle also had the function of making you younger—of course, this potion only needs to be drunk halfway to take effect, and the other half is like an antidote, which can turn you back."

Lian took the white potion bottle, then turned her gaze to the other potion bottle in Jill's hand.

If Master were to drink this...?

No, no, if I'm too bold, my master will hang me up.

"...Lian, are you thinking about something bad?" Gil asked, narrowing his eyes.

Lian immediately shook her head, "Master, that's your misconception."

"However, there are some things we should ask Grevas."

Jill sat down in the chair, rubbing her temples, feeling a slight headache.

I shouldn't have had a headache so early.

He frowned.

Enkidu, standing to the side, slightly narrowed his pupils.

A single strand of hair at Jill's sideburn looked as if it had been splashed with bleach in dirty water—

Slowly, it turned into pure white.

At that moment, the meeting room door was pushed open.

"Is that... Gil something-ga here?"

Suddenly, a sound came—

A cute girl, about ten years old, wearing a black and white dress, suddenly appeared.

She had silver hair like steel swords and blood-red eyes.

Her skin was unusually white, and her limbs were quite slender.

With a muffled thud, the cup in Jill's hand shattered.

He turned to the girl with a horrified look, "Bastard, when you come to see the king, at least remember my full name."

"Ugh~ No way, I don't want to remember an old man's full name..." The girl spun around in place and then gave Jill a mocking smile.

“Master…?” Lian sensed a terrifying aura and turned to look at Jill.

“…Very well, there are even more ignorant bastards besides those from the Holy Kingdom. I’m itching for a fight.” Gil cracked his knuckles, and then an astonishing aura surged from his entire body.

“Teacher Gil, please don’t act rashly,” Restia suddenly spoke up. “This child is an elf, you know.”

Gil's temple veins bulged. "What do you care? How dare you be disrespectful to me, the king? In other words, you came prepared to die, didn't you?"
