He would never do something so irrational! But he noticed the strange atmosphere at the scene, and even the obvious envy that flashed in Lancer's eyes.

What, do these people still think they performed worse than Webber?

Meanwhile, on the other side, Shan Shan finally turned her head slightly and looked at the red-haired gorilla.

"Oh? You ignorant bastard, calling yourself king? Under normal circumstances, I would have taught you a lesson and shown you what the magnanimity of a king is. But for the sake of the need for strength in the fight against that fallen mother goddess, I will forgive your sin of arbitrarily declaring yourself king. Hmph! This is finally getting a little interesting. If you want to prove that you are different from that piece of trash who came with you, then come with me. I will personally verify your worth and see if you are qualified to fight alongside me!"

The next moment, Gilgamesh instantly transformed into spirit particles and left. He then informed Tokiomi not to waste any more time and to summon all the other Masters and Servants he could contact. He wanted to test the mettle of these guys all at once.

If they're all trash, rather than sending these scum to their deaths, he'd rather send them back to Valhalla now to avoid them getting in his way.

Chapter 58 The Patient Partner of Justice: Solomon is an evil more terrifying than those two beasts!

Soon, the other Masters and Heroic Spirits who had also been contacted by Tokiomi and were on their way here also learned of the King of Heroes' challenge.

At this critical juncture, why did that heroic spirit start a civil war? What was it thinking?

Are their combat capabilities so weak that they can't even take a serious look? Do they need to resort to this level of 'humiliation' to provoke them?

Those heroic spirits who did not know the true name of the King of Heroes, if they had any sense of righteousness, could not bear such an insult.

Aside from the Conqueror King, who chased after Gilgamesh and rode his Divine Wheels across the Tokyo sky with great fanfare, in the shadows—besides Hyakko, who was unsuitable for proving his combat abilities, the Brush who was just mocked as trash and couldn't retaliate, and Caster from the True Faction whose arrival is still unknown—the other three riders and their Masters were clearly very dissatisfied with Gilgamesh's group taunts.

On the Berserker side—Matou Kariya, who was already very unhappy about joining forces with his old rival Tokiomi Tohsaka, immediately had the idea of ​​beating up Tokiomi's Heroic Spirit to vent his anger when he heard the news. This thought just happened to coincide with his own Heroic Spirit's hot temper.

"Huh?! What kind of idea is this, Archer? How dare you underestimate my power as the rightful heir to King Arthur!" The blonde girl, covered in crimson lightning and wearing horned armor, uttered a cutely irritated voice.

Perhaps it was the butterfly effect, but this time, when Kariya Matou was holding the relic related to the Round Table, he did not summon Lancelot. Instead, he summoned the legendary rebellious knight Mordred.

The hot-tempered Mordred immediately suggested, "Master! Let's go beat that Heroic Spirit up and seize leadership. If we're going to defeat an evil goddess, then someone with true kingly qualities should lead the heroes to truly unleash their power."

That's right—! She was practically saying she had the qualities of a king.

Thinking of this, Xiao Mo, whose face was flushed with excitement under his armor, became excited.

This is the best opportunity for her to demonstrate her royal qualities as the rightful heir to 'King Arthur'.

If she could lead the historically renowned heroes to successfully defeat Tiamat, even her father, the King, would be amazed by her great achievement upon hearing the news in Valhalla. She herself would no longer be able to deny her accomplishments, a feat that even King Arthur himself probably couldn't claim to have accomplished.

Meanwhile - on the other side.

"Saber... cooperate with Irisviel in this operation. On the surface, you will still be in charge. Go and meet those Servants. If possible—take command of them." Kiritsugu Emiya coldly gave orders to Irisviel and Artoria in front of him.

Not long ago, at Kiritsugu Emiya's request, King Solomon did not hesitate to help him a little, and took away Irisviel's Command Seals to become Artoria's new Master.

At the same time, he used magic on Irisviel, temporarily threatening to control her for his own use.

Even knowing that this woman's allegiance was only temporary, as long as Saber's Command Seals were in his hands, Kiritsugu Emiya had nothing to worry about.

After learning that Tokiomi Tohsaka was contacting his Master everywhere, he had Irisviel contact Tokiomi Tohsaka and thus obtained the latest information.

It's time to let this master-servant pair infiltrate the ranks of the True Heroic Spirits.

Although sending Saber away is somewhat dangerous for me, I should still have enough time to use Command Spells to teleport Saber to me.

That's right—'danger'!

Since returning from Germany that day, Kiritsugu Emiya has lived in a state of constant anxiety.

This sense of crisis did not come from anyone else, but precisely from his own heroic spirit.

Although the man named King Solomon seemed very powerful and easy to talk to, and even helped him obtain Saber's Command Seals, Kiritsugu Emiya remained outwardly calm about this magical ability, but inwardly he became increasingly wary of this man.

Unlike the obvious final trials of humanity and the calamities of the Mother Goddess of Creation.

Judging from Kiritsugu Emiya's observations of the situation in Tokyo, even if the two beasts are left alone for the time being, according to the characteristics of the final trial of humanity, as long as they are not attacked, this era will not collapse immediately. The other beast seems to be restrained and has not shown any real threat to this world.

Tokyo, the origin of the beasts, is currently so peaceful. Perhaps we can regard them as a hidden danger that humanity must find in the future, but they are not a crisis that will immediately threaten humanity.

However—his own heroic spirit was different.

This 'Solomon' is very strange.

Their undisguised indifference towards humanity and their various unfriendly remarks suggest a deep dissatisfaction with the current human condition.

He believed all those terrifying words, saying that this Magic King had the idea of ​​destroying humanity, destroying this world, and recreating a new world.

If this is how the other party saves the world, Kiritsugu Emiya would never admit that such a thought is salvation.

Even if he were to seek the ideal of alleviating those tragic scenes and bringing happiness to the world, he would absolutely find a perfect way to achieve it.

As a 'partner of justice,' his keen sense of exploring evil led him to subtly and gradually seek the essence of 'Solomon' during this period.

The more they investigated, the more terrifying this man became! They increasingly believed that 'He' was a monster that must be destroyed! This was a creature that should not exist in the world at all, and his ideas were not something that 'humans' should possess.

Compared to the crisis in the distant future, his thoughts, coupled with his overwhelming strength that could even defeat King Arthur with a few punches—if he were to obtain the omnipotent wish-granting machine, what terrible wish would he make to the Holy Grail?

That's right—after gaining control of Saber, Kiritsugu Emiya learned her true name.

It was only after learning that she was actually the Queen of Knights that he felt even more how terrifying this 'Solomon' was.

He is the one who deserves to be punished, the evil of our time. If this great demon cannot meet his end here, he will surely regret it for the rest of his life.

He—Kiritsugu Emiya—determined that 'Solomon' was a calamity more terrifying and dangerous than the beast.

He trusted his intuitive judgment far more than the concept of a beast—it couldn't be wrong! 'Solomon' deserved to be defeated!!

However, Kiritsugu Emiya would not act rashly until he had enough combat power to deal with this guy.

Let's go along with it for now...—let's aim to deal with those two beasts.

Chapter 59: Being treated like a grunt in a Lightning-level battle? Is that even acceptable?

Artoria Pendragon felt utterly humiliated...

But for that slim chance of winning the Holy Grail, and to protect the life of his former Master Irisviel, the mighty King of Knights had no choice but to obey the orders of that hateful and despicable man.

"I understand..." As he obeyed Kiritsugu Emiya's orders and headed to the battlefield where the Heroic Spirits of the Kazuma faction would meet, the Knight King's ahoge (antenna-like hair) was all sticking up, and his mood was extremely heavy and unpleasant.

At that moment, she had no idea that she would soon encounter more unpleasant things, such as a rebellious son who was on his way to the battlefield.

On the other side, Gilgamesh directly piloted the Radiant Ship Vimana and arrived at Tokyo Tower first.

As the king, he should naturally stand in the highest place and appreciate the most beautiful scenery!

As for the Conqueror King who hadn't yet caught up, and the other Heroic Spirits who hadn't arrived, Gilgamesh stood alone atop the peak, overlooking the bustling city below, and commented: "Boring... No matter how times change, this world remains so ugly. In the pursuit of illusory prosperity, this city has not only indulged in material desires but has even fostered a consumerist mentality. These mere courtiers, in a city without a king, consider themselves kings—it's truly laughable..."

It was not unruly or arrogant, but a deeper, seemingly heartbroken statement that quickly gained the approval of another king.

A voice suddenly rang in his ear: "Same here... It's utterly insignificant. The reason? Even the explanation is incredibly boring."

"...Who?" Flash frowned and looked in the direction of the voice, then looked somewhat annoyed.

Above his head, a huge, bright solar ship slowly appeared out of nowhere.

Ramses II makes a dazzling appearance.

He clearly also identified a prime location as the highest point in the city.

It must be said that "great minds think alike" (birds of a feather flock together).

Soon, Flash spotted Ramses II on the ship above.

"You bastard, who is covered in the scent of the sun and a bastard, how dare you fly over my head."

A heroic spirit filled with an annoying divinity and a familiar aura (just like himself), look at the sun ship beneath its feet—the Rider.

The Conqueror King is their Rider, so the one in front of them is clearly the enemy.

How dare they appear before me at this moment? Do they intend to wipe them all out in one fell swoop?

Gilgamesh's expression turned slightly serious... Although he said that his other Heroic Spirits were trash, he was more disappointed in them. If those guys performed even slightly better later, Gilgamesh didn't really intend to eliminate them. He could also use force to quickly gain the right to speak and make those Heroic Spirits obey his commands.

The heroic spirits were all first-rate heroes in life, so they would naturally be proud and arrogant. If they don't bring up their power again to show those guys their strength, how can they convince them?

That is why this civil war before the main war was indispensable.

However—the thing that troubled Shining the most still happened.

Did the enemy really come smelling blood? This sun doesn't seem like an easy opponent; it's definitely a formidable foe. I wonder if its other accomplices are on their way.

"Huh? To actually call the King of all things a bastard? I can't pretend I didn't hear that. The radiance of Almighty God would prostrate himself at my feet, all things are in my hands, the great Pharaoh is right before me, yet he is oblivious and shows no respect. Were your eyes just for show? Golden!" Ramses II's gaze turned equally dangerous.

Although I've already prepared myself for the feat of soloing the Mother Goddess of Creation if all else fails, it would be best to find like-minded companions.

That's right, Ramses II had already decided to betray them. After unexpectedly meeting Gilgamesh here, they couldn't agree on anything. In another situation, they probably could have become friends.

But the difference in their viewing positions is enough to make them compete for warmth, like two children starting to fight each other.

Gilgamesh:?

If the King of All Things is the King of Kings, then where does he place himself, the King of Kings and the King of Heroes?

"Very well—you have successfully angered me, Sun. Before I fight those scum, let me teach you a lesson first."

As he spoke, the Hero King boarded the throne of the Radiant Ship and flew into the sky. Then, the Gate of Babylon behind him opened wide and bombarded him.

"Well done!!" Rama II was not surprised but delighted!

He came here to find a horseman—or rather, a tool—who shares his stance, a hero to fight the evil beast together.

The more impressive the lineup's combat power, the happier he is!

If the remaining heroic spirits could all possess the strength of this golden-haired fellow before us, what great things could we not accomplish!

Boom! Boom boom boom boom!

The Dark Sun Ship, capable of burning down the entire Tokyo within minutes, unleashed its full firepower and directly clashed with Gilgamesh's Noble Phantasm.

The two fought each other and ended up in a war right over Tokyo.

This huge commotion attracted the attention of countless ordinary people below the city.

'What, what is that?!' Although the heroic spirits fighting in the distant blue sky were invisible to people, the terrifying explosions and mushroom clouds that kept appearing in the sky plunged the ordinary people in the city below into a state of trembling fear.

Has the little boy come again?!

This is insane! This time, the attack was directly launched on Tokyo, a densely populated city with nearly 1400 million people. Aren't they afraid of incurring international wrath for such an inhumane and cruel act?

At this moment, countless Heroic Spirits and Masters who had also arrived in Tokyo fell silent as they watched the massive, unseen commotion.

Is there still any need for the Holy Grail War to be conducted in secret?

Well, just looking at the lineup for this Holy Grail War, it's absolutely impossible for them not to sink Tokyo.

The prayer should not be for Tokyo to fall, but for the entire island nation to be able to survive the war.

Such a massive war, threatening the entire world, could potentially lead to the fall of the entire world.
