Their commission was suspicious.

"Who was the first person to use your river god powers like this?" Iskandar asked, taking the bottle with a hearty laugh.

"Myself."

"Oh, although I haven't tasted it before, just from the taste alone, I can tell that the wine in the middle that emits a faint golden light is much more delicious than the other two glasses."

“Caster, I’m very curious to know what the upper limit of your river god abilities is?” Iskandar asked while eagerly serving drinks to the group.

"There is no limit. There is nothing in this world that I cannot copy. Even Noble Phantasms. Of course, I have a limit; I cannot yet fully display my powers as a river god."

"Is it because of the limitations of Servants?" Iskandar asked thoughtfully.

"Come on, cheers!" But even that did not dampen Iskandar's enthusiasm for drinking.

Especially when faced with such fine wine, whose mere aroma is enough to make one almost drunk, it's even harder to control oneself.

The three kings raised their glasses and slowly drank the wine in one gulp.

"Fine wine!" Iskandar exclaimed in surprise.

Even Artoria couldn't help but look at the wine in her glass in surprise.

"In terms of support alone, you truly deserve to be called unparalleled in the world." After finishing the super-enhanced wine, Gilgamesh did not hold back his praise for Chen Luo.

“But Caster, why don’t you drink?” Artoria asked.

You didn't poison the drink, did you?

"...Do you even know what it means that minors can't drink alcohol?"

"Ugh?"

“Caster, you’re not 18 this year?” Iskandar was also a little surprised.

"Ah, almost 18, almost," Chen Luo said, calculating the time.

"...Dying so young? Or are you just referring to the fact that you are not 18 years old in the current timeline?" Iskandar couldn't help but ask.

"What are you thinking? You think I died young? You're overthinking it. I'm still alive, but because I died once, I can be considered dead, which is why I can participate in the Holy Grail War. But as someone who is immortal, I can go back to having fun after the Holy Grail War." Chen Luo explained, seeing the curious looks in their eyes.

"So even if you're not dead, you're still not 18? That's truly... a young hero indeed," Iskandar remarked.

"Ha, I know what you're lamenting? Why do I have this power when I'm not even 18? But you have no idea what I went through before."

Two years, a full two years.

Chen Luo spent two whole years on that talent awakening quest.

However, Chen Luo's words easily led the other three kings to imagine their own different dramas.

"With your swordsmanship and strength, Caster, who could kill you? And aren't you a god?" Artoria asked curiously.

"This...who says gods can't die? The person next to you who has killed countless gods should have some say in this." Chen Luo pointed at Jin Shanshan.

"Hmph, even gods die if they are killed," Gilgamesh, who had once slaughtered gods, said truthfully.

"Then how did you die, Caster?"

"Emmm... He was killed by Gabriel," Chen Luo said after a moment's hesitation.

“Gabriel? The Archangel?” Iskandar suddenly realized.

Although Iskandar died long before Jesus came to earth, thanks to the modern basics and historical knowledge bestowed upon his followers by the Holy Grail, Iskandar still had some understanding of religion.

"Sigh, all I did was steal her power and make a puppet. Was it really necessary for her to chase me and hack at me for an hour? In the end, to calm her down and keep her to continue draining her power in the future, I let her kill me once."

There was no other way; Chen Luo's Rose Doll Set had seven pieces, so the seven archangels had to come down one by one and have them all taken.

Ah, wait a minute, if we want to make Rose Dolls, we need to summon angels in the world of A Certain Magical Index.

But summoning an angel would be such a big commotion that it would definitely attract Othinus.

Given the relationship between Euthynus and Chen Luo... I'm afraid he'd just throw a God's Spear at Chen Luo the moment he saw him, right?

“Don’t worry,” suddenly said little Euthinus, who had been perched on Chen Luo’s shoulder.

As Chen Luo's "knowledge," Little Othinus is not visible to everyone, and Chen Luo's communication with Little Othinus does not require language; he only needs to think about it.

"Your consciousness is... alright?" Chen Luo breathed a sigh of relief.

“No, it definitely will, so there’s no use worrying about it,” said Little Euthinus.

"...What a stingy demon god."

"..." Little Euthinus pondered, "Wouldn't it be strange if Euthinus didn't retaliate?"

But who makes themselves the other party's "knowledge"?

Let me think about how to better deal with "me".

Chapter 667 The Three Kings' Debate? Kings...Are kings and nobles born with a special destiny?!

“Archer, according to Caster, you must be Gilgamesh, right? What kind of wish do you have placed on the Holy Grail? Why do you want to compete for the Holy Grail?” Iskandar asked Gilgamesh.

Since they were from different worlds, the three kings present had little interest in Chen Luo's legendary experiences, especially since they couldn't know his weaknesses here.

Iskandar, the organizer of the party, was the first to ask a question.

"You're wrong to judge from the premise of 'fighting for the Holy Grail.' That was originally mine. All treasures in the world can be traced back to my treasury," Gilgamesh said arrogantly.

“The treasures of Babylon…right?” Iskandar suddenly realized.

"If that's the case, then it means you once possessed the Holy Grail and know what it is?" Iskandar asked curiously.

"I don't know. Don't judge me by your standards. The total amount of my treasure has long exceeded my comprehension. But since it is a treasure, it must be my treasure. You thieves have quite the nerve to try to steal it from my treasury." Gilgamesh's tone remained arrogant.

"You mean to say that all we need to do to get the Holy Grail is get your permission?" the optimistic and generous Iskandar asked in a different way.

“Indeed. But I have no reason to bestow any reward upon you,” Gilgamesh replied.

"You... are you a stingy person?" Iskandar's expression was like that of a child looking down on the other person during an argument.

What followed was a conversation between Iskandar and Gilgamesh that resembled a children's quarrel.

Gilgamesh: Do you want it? I won't give it to you, I'm only giving it to my underling. Of course, if you want to be my underling, then you can have it too.

Iskandar: You think you can be my underling? You're dreaming! You say the Holy Grail is yours? Fine, fine! But if you won't give it to me, I'll take it. Because I just want it.

Gilgamesh: If you dare to steal from me, I dare to beat you up.

Iskandar: Come, come, come!

Chen Luo, like a jovial person, sipped his tea and laughed.

Iskandar is really interesting.

She has a charismatic personality, but sometimes she can be a bit naive.

But after the argument, the two kings continued drinking, after all, fine wine was right in front of them.

Even Gilgamesh occasionally indulged in Chen Luo's super-enhanced version of the Supreme Wine.

It really tastes good.

So far, Gilgamesh's desire to vie for the Holy Grail has emerged among the four Servants.

“Conqueror King,” Artoria, who had been watching from the side, said.

"what happened?"

"You acknowledge that the Holy Grail rightfully belongs to someone else, yet you still intend to seize it by force?" Artoria asked.

"Why are you going to such lengths? What are you trying to achieve with the Holy Grail?"

"..." After hearing Artoria's question, Iskandar, who had been acting very boldly, remained silent for a long time. He only spoke slowly after finishing the drink in his glass.

"To acquire a physical body," Iskandar said somewhat embarrassedly.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Gain a physical body]: Grant Iskandar a physical body that allows him to walk in the world.

Rewards: 600 Primogems + Iskandar's Affinity + 30 + [The Place We Will Eventually Reach] (Craft Essence)

Difficulty: 3 stars

Ah, here we go again.

Another concept costume.

In a sense, Craft Essences and random rewards are similar, since some Craft Essences do have truly outstanding effects.

But it's ridiculous that every single one of them is a concept costume.

However... Chen Luo didn't mind.

After all, not all three-star missions come with random rewards, so Chen Luo was already quite satisfied with having a concept item as a guarantee.

To be honest, Chen Luo hasn't received a four-star mission in a long time. It's probably because he's already taken on all the four-star missions he could.

The ones I'm encountering now are either those with low strength, those with low motivation, or those with low task difficulty.

I haven't been able to increase the difficulty level.

"Huh?" Even Gilgamesh, who had maintained a calm and arrogant expression throughout, was surprised.

"Huh? I said, isn't your wish to conquer the world?" Waver, who had heard Iskandar's reply from afar, charged toward the King of Conquerors.

But Iskandar flicked him away with a flick of his finger.

"Hahaha." Chen Luo couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"The relationship between you and your Master is quite interesting," Chen Luo explained, addressing why he was laughing.

“Ahem, my true desire is to obtain a physical body. What's the point of having a cup conquer the world for me? Conquest is a dream I must realize myself. Wanting the Holy Grail is merely the first step towards achieving that dream,” Iskandar said.

"Is this all you're going to challenge me over such a trivial matter?" Gilgamesh was starting to get a little agitated.

"Although we have descended through magic, we are ultimately just Servants. I want to become a true life in this reincarnated world, to take root, and to challenge the heavens and earth with my own body. This is the whole meaning of the act of 'conquest'."

“Start by pushing forward like this, and you'll eventually achieve it! That's my domineering style.” Iskandar downed his drink.

"Hmph, it's decided, Rider. I'm going to kill you with my own hands," Gilgamesh said with a cold snort.

However, despite Gilgamesh's initial declaration of intent to kill his opponent, his transformation from a bastard to a Rider at least proves that Gilgamesh acknowledged Iskandar as an adversary.

But Chen Luo felt that the other party was somewhat disrespectful to him.

If you kill him, how can I give him a physical body?

I'm warning you, if you don't post a commission, I'll scatter your ashes to the winds.

"Hahaha, I think there's no need to remind you now. I also really want to steal all the treasures from your vault, so you'd better watch out," Iskandar laughed.

“This approach… is not the way of a king.” Artoria suddenly looked up, interrupting their conversation.

"Oh, then tell me what's on your mind?"

Gilgamesh and Iskandar both turned their gazes toward Artoria, the King Arthur.

"My wish... is to save my homeland. To use the omnipotent wish-granting machine to change Britain's fate of destruction."

When Artoria expressed her wish, everyone fell silent.

Then, with Iskandar speaking as the starting point, the three kings began a debate about the kingship.

King Arthur, the King of Heroes, the King of Conquerors. In their own words, the three men had different paths to kingship.

The way of the conqueror is: to stand ahead of everyone, guide everyone, become everyone's direction, and live more brilliantly than anyone else. In short: lead the people by your own example.

As for Gilgamesh, his rule was even more autocratic and tyrannical. He believed himself to be the only king in the world, and that his words and actions were absolute. Everything in the world belonged to him, and all the people should submit to him.

Saber's path to kingship is to uphold the king's beliefs: to serve the country and its people with utmost devotion; for everyone to be happy, even though she alone is unhappy. In short: the ideal king.

If Chen Luo, as an outsider, were to judge from a different perspective, then... Chen Luo would still prefer Artoria.

It wasn't just because she had a cowlick; it was mainly because if Chen Luo were just an ordinary citizen, he would naturally prefer a king who served the country and its people.

The emperor guards the nation's gates; the monarch dies for the state.

As for Iskandar and Gilgamesh?

As Iskandar himself said, it is not the king who dedicates himself to the country and his subjects, but rather the subjects and the country who dedicate themselves to the king.

And the second-generation madman himself is also a tyrant.
