I am Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.

While watching the commotion in the distance, Jill was writing something in her notebook.

"..." The cherry-haired shrine maiden stepped forward. "Kallen is dead... Is it true?"

“Yes, it’s true, but if I had to say, Karen should have left behind a daughter.” Jill scribbled in her notebook. “And that fox on you… take its consciousness back to me, or I won’t hesitate to destroy it completely, you bastard.”

The mere collapse is far inferior to the Destruction Factor.

Gil's eyes, which had turned pitch black at some point, gleamed with a cold light. "Get out of my sight!"

The black fox phantom immediately shrank and hid behind Yae Sakura.

"...Hmph, you're smart to know what's good for you." Jill chuckled, and then the terrifying destructive aura emanating from her slowly dissipated.

If the black fox phantom had a physical form, it would definitely be in a state of bristling fur.

When Jill's unreasonable and terrifying aura and killing intent erupted at the same time, it felt as if its neck was being forcefully squeezed by a pair of large hands.

It was merely murderous intent.

This person... is terrifying!

"Hey Yae Sakura, why don't you get rid of that fox on you? That aura is really bothering me."

Jill glanced at the dark figure, her displeasure evident in her eyes.

If a Honkai Beast or a zombie were to jump out at this moment, its best fate would probably be to be chopped into pieces.

The dark figure immediately showed hostility.

"Hmph, whatever, this is really boring..."

Jill chuckled and then silently looked at the notebook in her hand.

This time, things should go fairly smoothly in this world...

Jill yawned softly.

Treat it as a vacation. After all, in the previous world, it was hardly a vacation. I had barely arrived at the academy when I learned that a certain princess had been captured, and before I could even rest for two months, I was attacked by those bastards from the Holy Kingdom...

Then, after the omniscient and omnipotent star broke free of its restraints, it went and killed that foolish Holy King...

Although it seems like I've been working overtime ever since I came back here?

Cough, hallucinations, it's just an occasional thing.

Jill fiddled with her phone. "So, Yae Sakura, you have questions for me, right? Go ahead and ask. I'll decide whether or not to answer you based on the situation."

"How did Karen die? It was..."

"Hmph... Do you really want to hear this?" Gil turned around, pinched Yae Sakura's chin, and looked her in the eye. "The truth is quite cruel."

Yae Sakura's expression didn't change much, but the expression of the black fox phantom became ferocious.

Gilles narrowed his eyes, released his grip on Yae Sakura's chin, then raised his hand and grabbed the fox's phantom tightly. He took a strange container from the Gate of Babylon, stuffed the fox phantom into it, and then forcefully slammed the stopper shut.

"??!!" After realizing what was happening, Yae Sakura's long ears stood up straight.

The fox phantom kept crashing into the bottle.

“I remember… um… it’s called Hiyomaru.” Gil shook the bottle up and down to quiet Hiyomaru down a bit. “Alright, I’ll tell you now.”

"When you became a pseudo-Herrscher, Kallen sealed you away, but you also severely injured her..."

The severely wounded Kallen was captured by Schicksal—the organization behind Kallen—and taken back to their headquarters.

At that headquarters council meeting—basically a meeting, you can call it a trial if you want—Kallen said this: 'The girl who became a healer is innocent, and I have fallen in love with her.'

The council ultimately sentenced her to death by hanging. Gilles paused.

Yae Sakura looked at Gilles, her eyes slightly dimmed. "Is it all... because of me? Did I kill Kallen?"

“…I think you bear some responsibility.” Jill didn’t hide her thoughts. “However, I didn’t finish.”

Jill glanced at her phone and snorted, "I killed the person I loved with my own hands... I wanted to save someone but ended up with the worst possible outcome... Life is so unpredictable."

On Jill's phone was a document.

The document of destiny.

"Record Data No. 858: ......During the execution, unidentified Honkai Beasts appeared near the plaza. While rescuing civilians, the weakened Kallen Kaslana was killed by one of the Honkai Beasts......"

Otto's madness wasn't just because of Kallen's death, but also because Kallen died because of his self-righteous "good intentions."

"Okay, that's all I wanted to say."

Jill didn't read aloud what was on her phone: "It's not entirely your fault."

At that moment, the ground suddenly began to shake.

"Huh? Was there an earthquake?" Jill asked, somewhat surprised.

However, he soon realized that something was wrong.

"...Tsk! How could this kind of Honkai energy source not have been discovered!"

In Jill's perception, it was a Honkai Beast of considerable size...

At that moment, Jill heard her best friend's voice through her earphones.

"Jill! It's a huge monster!"

"They can even observe it on the Hyperion!?" Jill frowned. "What does it look like? That thing?"

"It's white, and very big! It looks...like a pig!"

"Tsk! A King-class Honkai Beast, Ganesha! And that's a short-legged elephant!" Gil clicked his tongue. "How come one of these can run into me here... Communications officer, contact those rookies and retreat! Tell Mei and the others to hold Kiana tight!"

"Yes, Captain!"

"The Hyperion, get moving! Go get those little girls, I'll deal with that guy."

After giving his instructions, Jill summoned a golden longsword from the Gate of Babylon.

"Tell them to retreat quickly, or they might accidentally hurt someone."

After Gil finished speaking, he glanced at Yae Sakura.

Seeing that she was still in a daze, Jill frowned and had no choice but to rush out quickly.

His job was to cover the girls' swift retreat; he could put Yae Sakura aside for now.

Chapter 117 The mission is over

Boom!

A tremendous commotion erupted suddenly, and a figure rushed out like a whirlwind.

Only after confirming that everyone had arrived and returned to the Hyperion did Jill rush out.

There's no need to sense it, because the aura and the movement are far too obvious.

"Hoohoho-"

"Shut up, you big guy!"

Ganesha roared, and a massive beam of light shot towards Gill!

Gil narrowed his eyes, and a golden ripple appeared instantly, forming a shield as thick as a city wall that directly blocked the beam of light emitted by Ganesha.

"Hey... you're getting temperamental now... shut up!"

Gil clenched his left fist, and the Crimson Dragon Emperor's gauntlet instantly appeared amidst the glow of burning flames.

"Boost!"

The emerald green gem shimmered with light, and Gil's magical power suddenly doubled.

"Boost! Boost! Boost! Boost! Boost!"

Gil instantly rushed to Ganesha's feet and delivered an uppercut to Ganesha's massive body with his left hand.

Ganesha's massive body, which was over twenty meters tall, was sent flying off the ground by Gil's punch!

If Jill's strength were displayed using Type-Moon's data, it would definitely be EX level.

Even if he were to wrestle with Hercules now, even without using the Crimson Dragon Emperor's gauntlets, he would absolutely not lose!

"it's over!"

Having discerned Ganesha's weakness, Gil's golden longsword, held in his right hand, instantly began to emit a golden light.

The longsword in Jill's hand began to emit an even more dazzling light.

That is a treasure weapon whose name everyone who has read the legend of King Arthur knows.

For this reason, the original owner of the holy sword used "wind" to conceal its appearance.

And this holy sword—

Its name is——

"The Sword of Victory (Excalibur)!"

Thus, the students on the Hyperion witnessed Ganesha being evaporated into purple particles by a towering pillar of light.

This mission was thus interrupted.

……

"Theresa!"

Onboard the Hyperion, everyone watched as the man, who was now erupting in anger, roared into the communicator, "Your intelligence work is seriously flawed!"

"Why are you yelling so loudly! I'm deafening!" The voice on the other end was clearly not going to back down.

Jill was clearly furious. "This mission involves Anti-Entropy, a King-class Honkai Beast, and a pseudo-Herrscher! Why can't your intelligence network be more reliable?! This battle is an information war; whoever has the most accurate and reliable intelligence wins!"

"Where's the intelligence for this mission? Ah—! Look at this, look at this! No Herrscher of the Pseudo-Herrscher, and no Ganesha who's asleep! Damn it! Are all the guys in your intelligence department useless?!" Gilles cursed fiercely.

He actually really wanted to punch it or something, but this was on the Hyperion, and they were still at sea. If he punched it, the Hyperion would crash into the sea, which wouldn't be good.

Seeing Jill's furious outburst, Mei sighed softly, "Jill-sensei really is..."

"Mei, Mei, why is that devilish teacher so angry?" Kiana, clearly still not quite understanding, asked Mei this question.

"Because the information about this mission was wrong. Ganesha was evaporated by some strange pillar of light in the end, and there was that witch that Teacher Gil brought back... It is said that there was also a pseudo-Herrscher, but Teacher took care of it." Fu Hua adjusted her glasses, adjusted a few places on her gauntlet, and then removed the gauntlet with a "click".
