I am Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.

I don't know why, but I'm really worried about the future of this college...

Jill sighed, rubbing her forehead. "So, what else did you do?"

"...I accidentally knocked this machine over, and then broke twelve of the ones next to it..."

"Bang!" Jill slammed her hand on the table and stood up abruptly. "Kiana Kaslana!"

He suddenly opened the drawer next to him, took out a helmet, and put on a cold smile. "Come on, Kiana."

Kiana saw the helmet in Gil's hand, and her expression changed instantly.

"Eek!" Kiana, who had been dominated by that helmet countless times, recalled the feeling of fear once again, and she instinctively ran towards the French windows.

However, a cabinet was thrown over with a "bang," blocking Kiana's path.

"Still trying to run?" Gil, with a devilish smile, approached Kiana while holding his helmet in his hand. "These VR pods that I developed for you to use for real-world sensory testing with the [Gate of Babylon]... it took more than half a year to make just over a dozen of them, and you've destroyed them all?"

Jill remembers that today is the first official use of those machines after they have completed testing...

That little rascal...

"Tsk, I'll go check things out and deal with you when I get back." Gil rubbed his head, casually shoving the helmet in his hand onto Kiana's head as he quickly walked out.

Kiana breathed a sigh of relief, and just as she was about to take off her helmet, she realized that her hand had already touched the switch.

Kiana's expression changed.

Then, she heard a sound coming from the speakers inside her helmet.

"Link begins..."

"I don't..."

By the time Kiana tried to take off her helmet, it was already too late.

She was instantly taken out of consciousness by the helmet, and her entire white fur collapsed to the ground, trapped in the consciousness space created by the helmet.

The bizarre tasks set up by Chen's helmet cannot be completed without leaving that space—that's how Jill designed that helmet.

The switch Kiana accidentally pressed was also deliberately placed there by Gil...

"Honestly, I'm always getting into trouble..." He rubbed his head as he walked down the corridor toward the mechanical combat training room, his head aching.

This girl will drive me crazy sooner or later...

Jill made a self-deprecating remark, and then her vision suddenly blurred.

Well? !

Jill swayed violently, almost falling to the ground, but fortunately a phantom suddenly appeared and supported her.

"Thanks, Ann." Jill covered her forehead, then stood up with Ann's help.

"Thanks to me keeping an eye on you, what did you see just now?" An released her grip and asked.

“…No, it’s nothing…” Jill rubbed her temples. “I didn’t expect…it would turn out like this?”

It was a figure with white hair.

Those eyes seemed to be made of real gold.

Her long white hair cascaded down like a waterfall.

Floating above their heads was a halo that seemed to symbolize holiness and power, and the wings, also formed from Honkai energy, were shaped like flat, elongated rhombuses with a dot in the middle...

The purple and white dress that covered the person's upper body was as simple and beautiful as a lily, with gold patterns along the edges adding a touch of nobility... Three golden marks shimmered on the backs of their hands, one of which resembled an eye...

more important……

“That face, is it Cecilia…? No, that’s not right, that face does look a lot like Cecilia…” Jill muttered to herself, but it didn’t escape Anne’s ears.

"That's... Kiana?" An frowned and asked.

“...Besides that, I can hardly think of any other possibility.” Jill leaned against the wall and said this in a low voice.

Kiana's pose easily evokes the image of that kind of being—

God.

No, calling it a "god" is a bit of an exaggeration, but that appearance does indeed fit the image of many "gods".

And the [god] of this world...

Nobody knows what it looks like.

“I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and its rider is called Faithful and True, who judges and wages war in righteousness. His eyes are like flames, and on his head are many crowns, and a name written on his head that no one knows except himself. He is clothed with garments stained with blood, and his name is the Word of God…”

An suddenly spoke in a low voice and read out these words.

Gil blinked before continuing, “The heavenly armies, riding white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and pure, follow him. From his mouth come sharp swords that can strike down nations; he will rule them with an iron rod and tread the winepress of the wrath of Almighty God.”

After Jill finished speaking, she added, "Revelation chapter 19?"

"Hmm, the manifestation of the end of this world, which is what you saw, doesn't it seem like it?" Ann tilted her head and asked.

“…No, it’s so similar,” Jill said. “It’s just that no one is following me.”

“Yes, every era in this world is fighting against the collapse.” Ann nodded. “Every world has to go through Fimbulwinter and Ragnarok before it can move towards a more distant future… It’s just that the people of this world have never successfully defeated Ragnarok.”

"Ragnarok... is also the dawn of humanity, signifying the death of the gods and humanity's march towards a more distant future." Ann said this, turning around, "We are such beings too."

"Whether it's the gods or humanity heading towards the future, the key is in your own hands."

Ann reached out, clenched his fist, and placed it on his chest. For a moment, the expression on his face made Jill feel as if she were seeing the one who had spoken to him.

"Ah," Jill simply replied.

However, he did indeed remember An's words.

Ragnarok is the dawn of the gods.

Having chosen the gods, one must fade into obscurity along with the old era in the ocean of history.

If humanity was chosen, then...

At this moment, Jill gave a somewhat helpless smile.

What are you thinking about?

Anyway, hadn't I already decided on the path I wanted to take?

She will not regret it, even if the decision she makes is wrong.

"Oh, I forgot to check on those machines. I'm off now."

Jill immediately set off at full speed towards the mechanical combat training room.

Ann looked in Jill's direction and shook her head.

I've already said that... Oh well, since it's his choice, I shouldn't regret mine.

……

Upon arriving at the mechanical combat training room, Jill saw that people were already inside repairing machinery.

“Ah, Mr. Gil.” The young man, wearing glasses and dressed in white researcher’s attire, nodded to Gil.

"Can it be fixed?" Jill walked up to a machine and asked.

These machines are not only his design, but also contain a large number of parts, circuits, and other things designed by the people of the [Gates of Babylon].

If it breaks like this, Gil will really have to consider putting something even more difficult into Kiana's frequently used punishment helmet.

"Don't worry, the internal program isn't broken, it's just that the outer shell is damaged and needs to be reassembled, so today's practical lesson might not be possible. I'll go back to the research institute later to get some materials to repair it..." the young man said after checking.

"Then, it's up to you."

"Yes." The young man nodded slightly.

Jill said to the Valkyries gathered on the other side, "This class has been changed to a self-study period. Go back to the classroom."

Upon hearing this, the Valkyries left, while Jill glanced at the outer shells with a regretful expression.

They're all made of magic iron, so how did they break? The Kaslana family is so strong, it's completely unreasonable!

"Mr. Gil, regarding the modifications to the Caster, we estimate it will be difficult to meet the requirements. Lowering the usage standards will reduce output..."

The researcher seemed to suddenly remember something and reminded Jill.

“It’s okay if the power is reduced appropriately, as long as it doesn’t fail to kill the Honkai Beasts,” Jill said. “Besides, I just need you to solve the problem of people whose mental energy is being consumed too much.”

"This method is not without its own; I'll explain it when I get back."

After recording the damage to the twelve machines, the young man bowed to Gil and said, "I'll take my leave for now."

“Being dutiful and loyal, that’s good…” Jill watched the young man walk away. “I remember his name was… Carrot?”

"Yes."

"The task of improving the Caster and Assassin skills is now in your hands. Do a good job, lad."

Chapter 210 [Gods] or [Humans]?

Although there were quite a few unexpected events along the way, thankfully there were no major problems.

Back in the office, Gil saw Kiana lying on the ground with her helmet still activated, and he gave her a slightly speechless look.

"Ah, I've got it." Jill rummaged through the drawer, found the remote control, and turned off the helmet.

Kiana opened her eyes instantly.

"You turned the switch on by yourself when you took off your helmet, that's pretty impressive." Jill had a wry smile on her face. "Luckily, it was just the outer shell that was broken, we can just replace it."

Even though the iron was enhanced with magic, why was it still damaged?

Jill looked the girl up and down, then looked away.

"This punishment will only last a short while. By the way, I suggest you run." Jill turned on her computer and began entering something into the file at hand.

"Why?" Kiana carefully removed her helmet without touching the switch.

"Because of your absence from class, it's not just Theresa who's pursuing you now. Let me think, Fu Hua, the class president, and your homeroom teacher Himeko are both pursuing you now, aren't they?"

Jill stopped being the homeroom teacher six months ago. Although she is still a teacher, she is no longer responsible for class affairs. As a replacement, Himeko took over Jill's position.

However, because the job of a homeroom teacher is actually very tiring, Himeko has complained to Gil several times.
