I am Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.

……

“Ugh, really…” Jill glanced at the unconscious man in the intelligence department, then dialed another number.

"You have four days to all come to this place."

Jill slowly recited the coordinates of St. Freya Academy, "Pack up the important data, or destroy the unnecessary ones—I'm giving you shadows a new opportunity."

……

Soon, the medical team arrived and carried the intelligence personnel away.

Himeko looked at Gil and sighed, "Is it really okay?"

"Who knows."

Jill placed a card in Himeko's hand. "The repair costs and the costs of rebuilding the intelligence department are all here."

Jill turned around. "I'm a little tired. I'm going back to rest."

Himeko took the card and stared blankly at Gil's retreating figure.

She rubbed her eyes.

I don't know if it's just my imagination... but part of Jill's hair seems to have turned white?

But when she looked closely... there was no white at all.

"...Am I seeing things...?"

Chapter 119 Heart-to-heart talk

Jill did not return to her dormitory.

Instead, he strolled leisurely to the dean's office and knocked on the door.

"..."

After waiting for a while, there was still no response from inside.

Jill sighed. So it really was because of her own poor behavior...

However... Jill, who was used to the headmaster's tantrums, only stood there for a while before preparing to leave.

Just then, the office door opened, and the petite headmaster peeked out, meeting Jill's gaze.

Jill's azure eyes met his crimson eyes for a second before he looked away. "Sorry, it seems no one's here. I'm going back."

Having said that, Jill took a step, turned around, and the movement was swift and decisive.

"Wait... Ah!"

Seemingly trying to catch up with Jill, Theresa quickly opened the door, but tripped over the threshold with her right foot as she stepped out...

As we all know, our St. Freya Academy Principal Theresa Apocalypse is a bit of a ditz. Although Gil once saw this seemingly innocent but actually slightly sadistic legal loli chasing after more than a hundred Honkai Beasts on the battlefield...

However, the Kaslana family's generational slight intellectual deficiency has not been eliminated...

Fortunately, Theresa was raised by Otto and wasn't so foolish as to be beyond redemption.

"I seriously doubt whether the you on the battlefield and the you now are the same creature."

The pain Theresa had imagined did not come; a hand caught her just in time.

With a hint of helplessness in his voice, the blond youth standing there sighed, "Honestly, I was going to tell you that [Shadow] is now under your command, but you haven't opened the door for so long."

Theresa paused for a moment, then looked at Jill. "You hired [Shadow]?"

【Shadow】is a newly emerging intelligence organization that claims that as long as you meet their conditions, they can get you information such as which big shot's underwear color.

Although such an organization is viewed with suspicion, it has a few bottom lines that prevent either Destiny or Anti-Entropy from having any malicious intentions towards it...

No, Anti-Entropy did have that, but that night the Shadow headquarters sent out a huge pile of mechanical parts.

Then the radicals of anti-entropy quieted down.

"Haha, you misspoke." Jill ruffled Theresa's hair and chuckled softly as she retorted.

Theresa pulled her hand away from Jill's with a look of displeasure, and then heard Jill say, "Because [Shadow] is my subordinate."

Theresa's eyes instantly turned into dead fish eyes.

Ah... thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem impossible.

Just how many organizations does this man control...?

The research institute, "The Gates of Babylon".

This was an organization that Jill had established to research and manufacture Honkai energy weapons and armor.

Basically, he only listens to Jill.

However, some armors that had significant side effects on the human body were modified here, and the burden on the human body was immediately reduced by a lot.

For example, the armor mounted on the Hyperion, specifically for Himeko, is called Fusion Armor: Crimson.

Based on Schicksal's older Valkyrie armor, this special armor was created by equipping it with the still-testing [Nexus System]. It has two forms: a fully armed, moderately armed version and a lightly armed version for ease of movement.

In its lightly armed state, the armor can operate independently. However, to unleash the true power of the [Nexus System], it must be connected to a large power supply unit in its fully armed state.

That's how it should be.

However, after being improved by the [Babylonian Gate] Research Institute, many parts of the Fusion Armor: Crimson were modified.

Most notably, it can unleash the same terrifying power as it did during the initial tests without needing to be connected to a large power supply device.

However, it also has a drawback: it needs to be charged.

It takes about half a month to charge up, enough for Himeko to splurge for a whole day.

If we don't go all out, we can probably keep fighting for about two days.

It can be described as a miraculous transformation.

Prolonged use will still result in a heavy burden, but compared to the initial side effects, the burden after improvement will be reduced by about 20%.

The Babylonian Gate Research Institute is named after Gilgamesh's own Noble Phantasm, and its researchers are among the best in the world.

Jill would naturally treat these subordinates who were loyal to her with certain preferential treatment.

With metals of comparable quality to Soul Steel and energy sources purer than Honkai Energy Crystals, if they can't produce anything good, Jill could throw them out to feed the sharks—that would be too lenient.

"Well, anyway, I might gradually hand over my power to you later." Jill rubbed Theresa's little head. "These things don't mean much to me, but they do to you."

Besides the Gates of Babylon and the Shadows, he also has quite a few other forces under his command.

“Theresa… there are some things… I might have to tell you.” Jill paused for a moment, then said.

"and many more!"

Theresa raised her hand and pulled Jill directly into the office.

"Hey, hey, don't pull me..."

Theresa can swing the 300-pound Oath of Judah with one hand, so pulling Jill is naturally a piece of cake for her.

The premise is that Jill doesn't actively resist Theresa's power.

Theresa slammed the door shut, then looked at Jill and said, "What do you want to say? Go ahead."

Theresa's intuition told her that what Jill was about to say might not be good news for her.

“Ah… well… I’ll leave this world sooner or later, and I still have my own mission to complete,” Jill said, looking at Theresa.

Theresa looked at Jill and asked in a half-joking tone, "You're not going to say it's about saving the world, are you?"

"Hey Theresa, did your IQ suddenly kick in?!"

"Go away! You think I won't bite you?!"

Theresa bared her teeth, looking like a small animal about to bite...

Believe it or not, she's actually quite cute.

"However, if I leave, I will first extinguish the Honkai in this era."

Jill made a promise: "Herrschers or Honkai—I will wipe them all out."

“For the sake of a better world,” Jill smiled and said, “and for you, so that in the future, there will be no children like her.”

Theresa looked at Jill, then hugged him tightly.

"It's a promise... You must keep it."

Theresa’s soft murmur reached Jill’s ears.

"...Ah, of course, no problem."

Jill crouched down, "What the king promised, we will do our utmost to fulfill."

Chapter 120 Today is truly a peaceful day.

Saturday, December 17, 2014.

When the sunlight streamed into the room, Kusanagi opened his eyes.

"Ah...that feels so good..." I stretched and glanced at the alarm clock.

It was a little after six in the morning.

Kusanagi Gakuen, who goes to bed early and wakes up early, has no bad habits, doesn't play video games, and still has pretty good grades...

They are the epitome of someone else's child.

Although his grades were only average before Jill's tutoring.

"If you get up early, then of course you should exercise properly."

Morning exercise is an essential part of life.

Kusanagi took his water bottle and a towel, brushed his teeth and washed up, put on clothes suitable for morning exercise, and quietly left the dormitory.

"Getting up early...good habit." Looking out the window at Kusanagi Gakuen, who had already run out, Gil looked at the driver on the table and a whole bunch of parts.

"However, it will probably take you some time to control the aggressive reaction of this driver. It's better to practice more..."
