Ilya, who had come with Berserker after hearing the commotion, was stunned and frozen in shock at the horrific scene.
Ilya's throat felt like it was being choked by a razor blade, and it took her a long time to manage to utter a few words in a hoarse voice.
“Lysellet…!”
“Sera…!”
Gilgamesh, standing in a pool of blood, looked at Illya and Berserker who had rushed over and spoke.
"Are you the puppet with the Holy Grail container?"
"As a fusion of androids and humans, the magicians have done something outlandish again!"
Illya was furious at Gilgamesh for killing people and acting as if it didn't matter.
"It's you..."
"Give them both..."
“Berserker, kill him.”
"Kill him right now, Berserker!!"
Seeing the Berserkers assuming a fighting stance and preparing to attack him, Gilgamesh finally revealed a long-lost smile.
"Haha, that's it."
"Come on, great hero!"
"If you were my opponent, my fatigue would vanish completely."
"Let the battle of myths be reenacted here!"
A golden ripple began to appear behind Gilgamesh once again.
Perhaps only Gilgamesh is a normal archer.
The boundless treasure of the king shot towards Berserker through a golden halo.
At first, Berserker easily knocked away all the swords and forks.
However, Gilgamesh had no intention of giving Berserker a chance to breathe.
Gilgamesh accelerated the throwing of the Gate of Babylon.
Faced with the inescapable Gate of Babylon from all sides, Berserker could only suffer the fate of having his body pierced by swords.
Shinji Matou, who was hiding in the ruins and watching all this, never expected Gilgamesh to be so strong.
They ran out of the ruins with a mix of surprise and excitement.
"Wuhu, so cool!"
"Were all those Noble Phantasms?!"
"What? You rascal."
"That's unbelievably strong!"
"In comparison, that guy over there looks all tough on the outside but weak on the inside."
"So, being big isn't all that's useful..."
Shinji Matou had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem and thought that Berserker was really dead.
Perhaps because Matou Shinji was still somewhat useful to Gilgamesh, Gilgamesh kindly reminded Matou Shinji of something.
"If you don't know me, then get lost, you clown."
"It's too early for a farcical performance."
Berserker recovered from his injuries and stood up, his ferocious form returning.
Seeing that things were not going well, Shinji Matou quickly ran out of the ruins.
"I have seen too many heroes who were beheaded and burned but still stood tall."
"I never imagined that there really are people who can come back to life!"
"Your Noble Phantasm is an amalgamation of your life's legend."
"This is the only treasure that I have never possessed."
"In that case, even I will be in a disadvantageous situation?"
"Although I am very displeased."
"But to deal with you, it seems we'll need the most advanced weapons."
New weapons kept being fired from Gilgamesh's Treasury, and Berserker gradually found himself in a disadvantageous position.
The mysterious heroine X, who was watching all this from a nearby corner, spoke to Otosaka Souji beside her.
"Master, should I go down and help that big guy?"
Otosaka Souji's message to the mysterious heroine X is: "Don't be impatient."
"Let's wait and observe further. The most dangerous moment hasn't arrived yet."
"Alright then, Master. Let me know when you're ready to go."
"By the way, Assassin, what do you think of that golden Servant?"
"Is that the heroic spirit with the golden light behind him?"
"That's right, it's him. His original name was Gilgamesh, the oldest hero-king in Uruk."
"Yeah, he's strong, even stronger than Berserker."
"Are you confident you can beat him?"
"As long as Master is by my side, I believe I can defeat him."
"I see."
In fact, Otosaka Souji has been thinking about one question: how to defeat the King of Heroes, Gilgamesh.
Otosaka Souji was also unsure about Gilgamesh.
Who knows, he might suddenly pull out some kind of magical artifact with a peculiar function from the King's Treasury.
Gilgamesh, who possesses the original text of human wisdom, is also the prototype of almost all Noble Phantasms.
Not to mention, Gilgamesh also possesses a sword called "Riding Sword" that can create a world.
The "Riding Sword" is a legendary artifact used to create Mesopotamia by splitting the heavens and earth.
This sword originally had no name; the name "Chengli Sword" was given to it by Gilgamesh himself.
It's less of a sword and more of an alternative weapon that resembles a sword.
The "Chengli Sword" consists of three rotating cylindrical blades.
The attack creates a near-spacetime rift, pulverizing all enemies.
Its attack power is so great that opponents must counteract it with a large-area damage AC or a similar level of destructive force, otherwise they cannot defend against it.
It is known as the "sword that cuts through the world".
Before the sword was swung down, all things in the universe were nothing but a meaningless mass of chaos; after the sword was swung down, new laws separated the heavens, the sea, and the earth.
This is the description of "Riding the Sword".
Otosaka Souji had no means of defense against the attack of "Riding the Sword".
Because of its inherent destructive attack, even elementalization cannot withstand it.
Unless he can defeat Gilgamesh in a battle of waves.
Or you could simply stop time and cut off Gilgamesh's elbow, the one holding the sword.
Just like Emiya, a sneak attack prevented Gilgamesh from unleashing the power of "Ea Riding Sword".
Gilgamesh has another Noble Phantasm that you need to be careful of, and that is the "Chains of Heaven".
"Heaven's Chains" is a Noble Phantasm against the gods.
It was created from Enkidu, Gilgamesh's close friend.
Its function is "to admonish God".
The higher the divinity of the captured person, the stronger the chains become, making them harder to break free and thus more binding. This makes it one of the very few weapons specifically designed for use against gods.
Once caught by this lock, even spatial teleportation becomes impossible, and one completely loses the ability to move.
However, if the opponent lacks divinity, the Chains of Heaven are merely a very sturdy chain.
Although Otosaka Souji would be unable to use the "Time Travel Power" if he were captured by the "Chains of Heaven".
However, since Otosaka Souji does not possess divinity, the "Chains of Heaven" is, at best, just a sturdy chain to him.
Just be careful not to get entangled in the endless chains.
As long as the "power to travel through time" and the "time stopper" are still usable, then ambushing Gilgamesh will be relatively simple.
