In Type-Moon, it all starts with adopting Sakura.

"Yes, King Gigi, no problem, King Gigi!"

"Get lost, and don't call me by that stupid nickname! First, let's talk about what you just said about seeing Gorgon attacking the defensive line on the way back with that good-for-nothing Merlin, and sensing a familiar aura. You went to Ur, saying it was to investigate the situation there and try your best to get the Holy Grail back. That's what you mean, am I right?"

"Ah."

"Very well, very well. Since that's the case, tell me about these 13,000 people from various city-states! That's more than four times the number of refugees you brought back last time, and even together they exceed the entire population of Uruk! What exactly are you trying to do?! I suspect you're trying to build a country within a country in Uruk, pushing ahead from a city-state system to a state system? Are you deliberately trying to cause trouble?!"

Gilgamesh felt like he was having a stroke looking at the massive, ever-growing army that had already been settling outside the city. He already missed the short time he spent in the Underworld. Although it was empty and there was nothing there, at least he could sit there and not have to worry about anything. Unlike now, when he returned, the management pressure was about to explode.

"No... It's mainly because we sensed a familiar aura heading towards Uruk, and there were signs of battle there, so we went to check it out, and that's how we happened to run into them. Besides, Ur and his group were already planning to come here, because it's the closest place to the Arabian Sea. If Tiamat starts moving, that's the area that will suffer the most damage and be the most dangerous. For safety reasons, it's not surprising that they migrated here. Apart from the Underworld, everyone in Mesopotamia knows that Uruk is the safest place, so they all came here."

"Hmph, the safest place, huh?"

Gilgamesh snorted coldly upon hearing this, then shook his head and let out a long sigh: "Perhaps... but how do we solve the food problem? With the population suddenly more than doubled, Uruk's accommodation and food supply definitely can't keep up. Have you thought about that?"

"You don't need to worry about that, because the goddess over there anticipated the situation here, so they all brought their own food. Now everyone in the team has more than a week's worth of rations, they just need lodging and accommodation. I think this period of time is enough for them to survive the apocalypse, right?"

"You rascal, though you always act like a fool who doesn't care whether I live or die, and you love to annoy me, you actually do have a talent for being an internal affairs officer in certain areas. With some training, you might even have the potential to become a king. If I had met you decades ago—well, never mind now, since things are already settled. Alright, time is of the essence. I'll send people to arrange things for these miscellaneous cultivators. The final Tiamat will definitely be heading this way, so the elderly, women, and children in the city—the seeds of civilization—can be moved out. If they want to stay, they need to be prepared. After all, Uruk isn't a safe haven where anyone can be sheltered. You understand that, right?"

When Gilgamesh said this, he didn't forget to glance at Lovi. Now that they were familiar with each other's personalities and how they addressed each other, their conversation had a more relaxed and casual feel to it.

He had collected both of the Destiny Tablets and had seen most of what he wanted to see. Although the contents were strange, if they were as recorded, it might not necessarily be a bad ending.

"You mean Ereshkigal's side, right? Don't worry, I've already made arrangements. She will open the gates of the underworld near Uruk, and then we can send the elderly, weak, women, and children who are unable to fight into the gates for refuge. No matter what the outcome is, we can ensure that the flame of Uruk will be passed down."

"You've arranged this very well, and it has indeed relieved my worries."

Gilgamesh nodded, then glanced at the spot next to Lovi and slowly said, "So, regarding the second point—what's with that strange guy next to you, covered in feathers, holding up a sign that says 'Manifestation of the Supreme God,' and accompanied by some weird beatbox music?!"

"Yo ho, Wise King of Uruk, seeing is believing! Let us confirm each other's beliefs through the clash of bodies and minds!"

"I refuse! Who wants to wrestle with a weirdo like you? You should just go to Merlin; he's much more resilient. Speaking of Merlin, where is he? He disappeared after handing me the clay tablet when he returned. Is he hiding somewhere slacking off again?"

"No, he's probably being ganged up on by two Artorias because he's been openly being cheeky again. But given how good people don't live long and bad people live long in this world, I think that guy is probably enjoying it right now."

Gilgamesh was speechless: "..."

—Damn it, that idiot!

He was increasingly speechless at the character of these Britons.

"By the way, let me introduce you first. King Gigi. This is actually one of the Three Goddesses Alliance, Quetzalcoatl, whose name is Quetzalcoatl. She is the conscience of the gods, the pinnacle of benevolent gods, and the opposite of Ishtar. You can trust her."

"Wow, this is the first time anyone has ever described me like that! It's really pleasing, little bro!"

"is it?"

"That's right. Before, those guys all called me the one who forced others to wrestle and kidnapped them, the perverted muscle goddess, and they couldn't even remember my name. You're the first person to remember my name on the very first time."

Upon hearing Lovi call out his name and refer to himself as a benevolent deity, Quetzal, whose personality was naturally forthright and generous, immediately wrapped his arms around Lovi's neck and gave him a loving hug.

"Don't strangle me too hard, you're really strong... And I called you by your name because I know a lot about mythology from all over the world, so even the feathered serpent god in Aztec mythology, I know a lot about him."

Lovi forcefully pried open Quetzalcoatl's arm, then answered in a low voice.

"Haha, isn't this my fan? And your body is so perfect, you're so strong, I never would have guessed. By the way, which pantheon are you from? How about a friendly wrestling match? If I win, I can give you my autograph~"

"Who wants to wrestle with you? Go find Merlin, he's the best wrestler in Uruk."

"Really? You guys are really praising him so much, Merlin must be a wrestling master! I'm really looking forward to it!"

"Hey, if you two want to exchange wrestling tips, then get out of here and finish your wrestling before you come back. Don't get in my way."

Gilgamesh rubbed his head, watching these two oddballs perform a skit in front of him, looking utterly bewildered.

"Speaking of which—aren't you also a member of the Three Goddess Alliance? You even kidnapped quite a few people from my side. I was originally planning to send this kid over to punish you, so what exactly are you trying to do by suddenly coming here?"

Quetzal blinked: "Of course, I'd be a traitor!"

Gilgamesh: "..."

At this point, Gilgamesh didn't want to continue talking. Not only was it pointless, but he also felt like he was about to become a comedic character.

"So, of all you three goddesses' alliance, the one that claims to resurrect Tiamat and destroy Babylon, only Gorgon is serious. The other two are just talking, and they're even on the side of humanity? No, it seems even Tiamat is on the side of humanity..."

Gilgamesh pondered the situation carefully for a moment, then said with a speechless expression, "Where did you guys come from, some makeshift troupe?"

Previously, in his mind, the so-called Three Goddess Alliance—a pact made by three goddesses intending to take revenge on humanity and destroy Babylon—was his number one enemy. However, the local god of the underworld, Ereshkigal, took a roundabout approach, preparing to save Uruk in his own way. Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent god, simply abandoned all pretense and focused solely on protecting humanity. Only Gorgon, the goddess of monsters, silently produced monsters to launch a full-scale attack. She didn't even realize that the final boss behind the scenes—Tiamat—was on the human side and had even gone AFK. This caused Gorgon, preparing for a high-ground assault, to repeatedly click the "Request Assemble" button, only to find herself alone once again.

The scene was roughly as follows:

Gorgon: [Requesting a group push, advance to high ground, prepare for team fight, and a decisive push.]

Ereshkigal: [Read but not replying.]

Quetzalcoatl: [I won't read or reply.]

Tiamat: [Aaaaaa……]

Jingu: [Disconnect.]

This directly resulted in Gorgon finally managing to reach the high ground after a tremendous struggle, just as she was about to push the tower, only to find that she was the only one there, creating an extremely awkward situation. Moreover, in terms of individual combat strength, Gorgon was actually the weakest among the entire Three Goddess Alliance.

They were supposed to be allies, but they were all traitors, a bunch of double agents.

However, when everyone else is a double agent, she becomes even more of a double agent herself.

Having roughly guessed this possibility, Gilgamesh sighed and decided he didn't want to discuss the topic anymore.

"Quetzalcoatl, you should also possess the Holy Grail of the Demon King, right?"

He directly asked Quetzalcoatl about the most important matter.

"Oh, yes."

Upon hearing this, Gilgamesh's brows relaxed, and he asked, "Could you...could you hand over the Holy Grail to me? I can offer you a price that satisfies you."

"Huh? I don't need the money, I don't need it at all. But I just gave the Holy Grail to my little brother, that thing is useless to me."

Quetzalcoatl pointed to Lovi beside him, and at that moment Lovi took out all the Holy Grails and placed them on the ground.

The Great Cup of Uruk, the Holy Grail of Ishtar, the Holy Grail of the Underworld, and the one of Quetzalcoatl—only the Holy Grail of Kingu's Magic Furnace is missing, and then everything will be complete.

However, speaking of the issue of metal preservation—

“You bastard, it’s your turn to explain yourself. I already know what happened in Ur. The guy you vouched for seems to have run into some trouble again. What’s going on with that fake Enkidu? Haven’t you decided on her side yet? Which side is she on? Why did she rescue the Gorgon that was being transported here, and almost let them breach the defenses? You must find out the truth about this and give me an explanation.”

Gilgamesh's tone became serious when Kingu was mentioned.

He was very concerned about the guy who had taken over Enkidu's body, and since the other party had indeed caused the damage this time, he had to take it seriously from any perspective.

Otherwise, if Gorgon had been brought to Uruk, they could have controlled the snake, obtained all five Holy Grails and the safety pin for Tiamat, and completely controlled the battle. Unfortunately, Kingu's rescue shattered their plan, forcing him to investigate the matter further.

"Don't worry, I'll ask her. And as long as Tiamat is still in Uruk and believes in humanity, she definitely won't be an enemy of humans."

Luo Wei nodded and decisively accepted the task.

After all, he was responsible for Jingu's issues, and he should be the one to investigate when problems arose.

Gilgamesh nodded in agreement, and Quetzalcoatl also said it was alright, it was just a Gorgon, they could just catch it again.

Moreover, she also clearly noticed the changes in Jin Gu.

It's huge, almost unrecognizable.

If it were the previous Kingu who had encountered humans, she wouldn't have been so polite, nor would she have cared about their lives. When she rescued Gorgon, the refugee group was nearby. Gorgon originally wanted to petrify all the humans, but Kingu stopped him and told him to go back immediately and not to harm the humans.

This surprised Quetzalcoatl, who initially harbored hatred for humans no less than that for Gorgon. Yet now he was protecting humans, actively concerned about their safety, and even stopping Gorgon from harming them. This was truly unheard of.

At that time, although she could defeat Kingu and Gorgon, she had too many people behind her. If they really threatened her with humans, she would be in a difficult situation. This made Quetzal curious about this change. What could have made Kingu, who hated humans so much, turn into this?

She glanced at Luo Wei curiously.

"Well, as long as you take responsibility to the end, I don't have time to deal with any extra problems. I still need to read the Destiny Tablets more carefully before I give you an answer. As for the resettlement of the refugees, let your little lover and Merlin handle it. Aren't they both kings? Haven't they discussed the way of kingship with me? This kind of work shouldn't be too difficult for them, right? As for you, before you go to handle the Golden Gu mission, go and do something for me."

"What is it?"

After delegating the tasks, Gilgamesh glanced at Lovi, then tossed a thick clay tablet to Lovi from his treasury and told him to take it and take it for a walk along the Uruk defenses.

"What is this?"

After receiving the heavy clay tablet, Lovi looked at Gilgamesh with a strange expression.

"This is the catalog of my royal treasury, and also a spare key. It can open about twenty portals to retrieve whatever you want from the treasury, but its greater purpose is to control the King's Horn Cannon on the city wall—my secret weapon." Gilgamesh explained calmly after handing the clay tablet to Lovi, "Logically, the final calibration work should have been done by me personally, but because of the work you brought, I'll entrust this to you. Although you're utterly terrible at repairing roofs, you surely won't disappoint me with magical tasks, so—"

"Don't sleep in these final moments! Join me in enjoying the pleasure of working 24 hours straight! Let you experience firsthand what it's like to wake up in the underworld and know how awesome that is, hahahahahaha—!!!"

"You're really going to stick with this roof repair thing, aren't you? This is clearly a case of using your position to settle a personal score. And is it really appropriate for me to entrust something so important to you? This is one of your most treasured possessions."

Luo Wei took the clay tablet and let out a somewhat helpless sigh.

"—Hahahaha!! I understand the principle of 'If you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them' better than you do. And isn't this good? After all, you're even more eager for victory than I am. Anyway, from now on, the King's Cannon will be your responsibility for calibration and maintenance. Come on! Do a good job, kid. Let me see just how capable you are. Don't disappoint me!"

Gilgamesh burst into laughter, then squinted at Lovi and said with a playful expression.

"Haki Shan, you're so old, but you still act like a child. But don't worry, leave it to me. I won't let you down."

Luo Wei could only sigh helplessly.

"Hmph, this is exactly the kind of momentum we need, you mongrel."

Seeing Luo Wei nodding solemnly below, Gilgamesh's lips curled into a smile.

Meanwhile, Quetzalcoatl watched as the two, who had been bickering and slandering each other just a moment ago, suddenly became perfectly in sync, and an amused smile appeared on his face.

"I feel like I've joined some kind of amazing group."

-

Similarly, the moment Lovi left the temple, petals fell around him, and Merlin appeared beside him.

Luo Wei looked at him and asked directly, "Are you planning to come back and work overtime? Or were you chased by Artoria and the others and had to come here for refuge?"

"Both of them were too enthusiastic. The two Lilies were so overly enthusiastic that they tried to pierce me with their Holy Lance as soon as they saw me. I almost thought I was going to have to go back to Avalon first. But more importantly, it's almost time to do my part now."

Merlin smiled slightly, then said lightly.

"Put in some effort? I thought you were going to slack off and enjoy yourself all the time."

Merlin: "Oh dear, although I do enjoy slacking off and don't like to work too hard when it's not necessary, that's only when it's not necessary. Right now, I don't have time to slack off anymore."

"What a surprise! You've suddenly become like a human."

Upon hearing his words, Luo Wei responded with a smile.

"By the way, where's Lily? Are they busy too?"

"Yes, they're all helping to maintain order. In this situation, when royal authority can't cover everything, the goddess's identity is quite useful. With them around, it should only take two days to send those who can't fight to the underworld."
