Faced with Roland's provocation, Gilgamesh seemed surprisingly calm and did not even launch unnecessary attacks.
He exuded a solemn aura and looked at Roland.
"Why have you become so silent? Isn't this unlike you? If it were you at the beginning, you would have quickly shouted that fools like me should be punished for provoking the majesty of the king."
As if recalling the series of losses he had caused due to his previous slights, Gilgamesh's tone was still extremely cold, but there was still a hint of anger.
"It is true that if it were the king before, he might launch an attack at all costs, but now, Roland, don't do these unnecessary actions."
"It seems that Enkidu's death has indeed made you grow a lot spiritually."
Roland nodded thoughtfully and said lightly.
"Facing an enemy like you, you shouldn't respond with that kind of contempt. Even in my heyday, you were an opponent who had to use all your wisdom and courage to deal with it. The previous contempt... will never happen again. Times."
Such calm words made Roland tilt his head. It was impossible for the Conquering King to defeat him. Gilgamesh, who had experienced it personally, could not possibly not know this.
So, why did the other party do this?
Roland looked into the opponent's empty eyes and rarely called for another force.
- Calling upon the darkness deep within.
When his pupils turned bright red, he felt the killing intent beneath Gilgamesh's calm surface that seemed to drown everything.
"I see. The reason why you need Rider to delay for you is to have time to sort out your own mind?"
"How perceptive, God of the Other World," Gilgamesh raised his brows and looked beyond Roland to the magic circle left behind by Darnic's workshop behind him.
"I thought you would think that I became enlightened because of Enkidu's death."
"This possibility exists, but even so, the archer is the archer, and the servant is just a side part of the heroic spirit for a period of time. Even if it has memories, it is still based on the current self."
Roland said frankly: "Faced with a desperate situation, a guy who would rather die in battle than hand over his treasure to be slaughtered is still stubbornly trying to survive before dying. This is inherently suspicious."
"Hmph...hahahahahahaha-!"
Hearing Roland's words, Gilgamesh first snorted, and then he began to laugh wildly.
"God of another world, you have completely guessed it. Since the last disastrous defeat, I have sworn that I will never treat you lightly again."
Gilgamesh said indifferently: "Although it was originally just to punish thieves who dared to touch my wealth, I have to admit that this war itself is very good and interesting. It allows heroes to fight against each other. It is simply It makes people gnash their teeth as to why such a grand event never happened before in my lifetime!”
"After Enkidu also appeared in this world, I was even more moved by incomparable joy. That is my only true friend. It was the reappearance of the promise made thousands of years ago. I will not hesitate to lose my dignity and run away from you. Just to keep the appointment.”
The King of Heroes stretched out his hands and looked at the trembling limbs, the hatred in his tone seemed to drip down.
"I have thought about the outcome of reuniting with Enkidu countless times, being killed, being overtaken, or winning as always. I cannot understand the defeat of my best friend, but I will try to accept it, because we who have died once You shouldn’t expect so much.”
"But...but! That despicable bastard dared to recreate the tragedy of the gods in front of my eyes! How dared to rebel and try to use Enkidu's body as a shell to give birth to himself!"
Under the perspective of Gilgamesh who was in a serious state, what Danik wanted to do was no secret.
"I can accept Enkidu's death, but I cannot accept that he will still be played by humans after death. What's more, humans are nothing compared to the gods who cannot resist."
Gilgamesh slowly floated up, even though he was already about to die, he still looked majestic.
"Roland, if you can understand what I'm saying, you should understand how much anger Enkidu felt when he was tricked by fate in front of me and fell into the despicable bastard's scheme compared to the anger he felt when he fled in embarrassment after being beaten by you. Not worth mentioning."
"Although I don't want to admit it, the death of my best friend has indeed brought me a new turning point,"
Gilgamesh abandoned the posture of a king and learned from Enkidu's posture, slowly opening his arms as if to embrace the world.
"However, unlike before, this time I will not understand the philosophy contained in life and death. Now, this body is only burning with the flames of pain and hatred."
"Humanity's desires have expanded unprecedentedly. They enjoy the five desires in the city but are still not satisfied. They even try to pursue the end of glitz. Neither Tokiomi nor that bastard named Danik are in this kingless city. A clown who has placed himself in a higher position than the king, the world is just the king’s courtyard, so I don’t intend to tolerate this anymore.”
Gilgamesh's scarlet pupils were brewing with waves that would overwhelm everything.
"Roland, the current king does not resent you. The object of my resentment is Darnic, this city, and the civilization itself that gave birth to him."
"Hey...are you still trapped in this development? Saber, kill him."
Roland stared at Gilgamesh who was flying higher and higher, and ordered softly. It was obviously an extremely critical situation, but he still did not move, and the expression on his face became more happy.
Saber, who had already felt uneasy, couldn't wait to jump up high. In an instant, she flew to an altitude of two hundred meters, stepping on the starry sky.
He does not have the ability to fly, but as Roland, as the master, does not have to worry about the consumption of magic power, it is not impossible to maintain this state to fight.
While flying into the air, Saber's feet kept tapping the air, releasing the violent wind magic for a second acceleration.
Even Archer was a little surprised by such a rapid speed, but he just waved his hand gently, and the space was filled with golden light like the water surface, and hundreds of powerful Noble Phantasms were shot out like a fully drawn bow. Like an arrow leaving the string, it flew straight towards Saber.
But with Saber's sharp eyesight and flexible body that can freely control the strong wind, he holds the sword in one hand and can block with ease and dodge the rain of flying Noble Phantasms.
Saber's skills may not be top-notch, but they are still top-notch. With sufficient magic power, the bombardment of these Noble Phantasms is nothing more than a powerful continuous shot to him.
"Compared with Tristan's sure-hit arrows, it lacks accuracy, but with this quantity, it can still be dealt with."
As she continued to dive towards Gilgamesh, Saber exhaled softly, recalling the sentimental knight. Ever since the kingdom declined, for some unknown reason, the sad knight always avoided it in shame. He opened himself up, and finally left because he couldn't understand himself.
As a partner who once fought alongside each other on the battlefield, Saber would naturally be curious about this.
But unfortunately, he has no time to think about these problems now, so he can only put them in the corner of his mind.
The servant should turn into the master's sword and throw himself into the battlefield, just like a knight versus a monarch, knocking down the heavy rain of noble phantoms. When Gilgamesh's hand reached into the golden ripples, Saber raised the blade. , cut it down hard.
Even if the opponent wants to pull out the artifact that divides the world, but before the power is released, the sword named Guili is not very suitable for close combat. He only needs to imitate the master and kill Archer before he pulls it out. Just cut off the arm.
Even more than just cutting off.
The invisible holy sword was raised high, and it was obvious that Saber wanted to split Archer in half.
But when Gilgamesh faced this powerful and heavy blow, he did not rush to release the power of the Noble Phantasm, but quickly drew it out and held it in front of him!
"when--!"
The collision and friction between metals produced sparks and crisp clashing sounds. Only then did Saber realize that what Archer had drawn was not the Deviation Sword, but a pair of strange swords.
On the golden texture, there is a sword with a beveled tip and a twisted hilt. Gilgamesh resisted Saber's offensive with amazing sword skills, and finally escaped from this endless battle at the cost of a sword on his back. In tangle.
After getting an opening, he put the swords in his hands together, reappearing his original appearance.
That's a bow.
"The final sword Enki, it's been such a long time..."
Gilgamesh looked at the weapon that was buried in the depths of the treasure house. He tightened his grip on the bowstring transformed by the magic of light, and put his other hand on the arrow that appeared out of thin air.
It's ridiculous to say that this is the first time Gilgamesh, an archer, has drawn the bowstring in this Holy Grail War.
"It's true...but the archers actually used bows."
The corner of Roland's mouth twitched and he sighed. Compared to the Oblivion Sword, his Killer Queen was more clueless about this thing.
After all, this Noble Phantasm has only one effect.
- Summon a flood.
"From now on, let the world feel pain——!"
Gilgamesh declared loudly and drew the bowstring. In the process, the golden words formed strange lines that spread out in circles. With the long arrow as the center, bright red light like pupils spread out on both sides. Opened the golden wings.
After the bow string was fully drawn, Gilgamesh quickly shot the arrow in his hand.
Because it was not aimed at anyone, the long arrow just penetrated the floor tiles of Liudong Temple and was deeply embedded in it.
And this action means that the activation of this Noble Phantasm has been completed.
The arrow was not accurate because of Gilgamesh's hand weakness, but because it was just a prelude to positioning.
After experiencing countless humiliations and pains, Gilgamesh laughed heartily.
"Roland, I have finally found a way to defeat you! It's not against you, but simply resentment for this city, this civilization, and this world!"
"Look up to the sky, it's time to make a break!"
The King of Heroes, filled with destruction in his heart, proudly revealed the true name of the Noble Phantasm.
""The fire of calamity falls from the sky! - The wrath of Nabistin strikes!"
The sky gradually turned dark, but it was not because of the destructive thunder in the sky, but because of the heavy rain, raging waves, and torrents that filled the sky and blocked the sun.
"interesting--"
Roland looked at Saber who fell back to the ground and subconsciously held the holy sword with both hands, and said softly.
