Chapter 179: Here I come, King of Heroes. Do you have enough weapons in stock?
🕑 Added 2025-07-30 03:05:02 +0000 UTC【 Above a desolate sword hill, Gilgamesh casually surveyed his surroundings, his gaze landing on Shirou Emiya. “A Reality Marble? And then? What can such a broken mindscape accomplish?” 】
【 Having already witnessed the King of Conquerors' Reality Marble, Gilgamesh didn't take Shirou Emiya seriously at all. As he spoke, several golden ripples reappeared behind him, from which countless treasures emerged. 】
【 However, the instant the treasures appeared, Shirou Emiya suddenly raised his head and opened his eyes. The swords he projected around him flew up rapidly, striking the golden ripples with lightning speed. 】
【 “Clang, clang—” The crisp sound of swords colliding rang out, and the golden ripples behind Gilgamesh were scattered by Shirou Emiya's attacks. 】
【 “?!” Gilgamesh turned his head to look at the golden ripples behind him, a surprised expression on his face. Clearly, he hadn't expected the other party's copying speed to be so fast. 】
【 。。。。。】
~Projection of All Worlds~
“Hahahaha, this is the King's shock! Astonished, aren't you? You should be. When we saw Heroic Spirit Emiya creating divine constructs with his bare hands, we were even more surprised than you.”
“Perhaps Gilgamesh sees it as a broken mindscape, but that doesn't change the fact that Shirou Emiya is a heartless human printing machine!”
The people of other worlds chuckled at his dumbfounded expression. The fake he looked down upon had now become a high-quality imitation of the Gate of Babylon.
But… it feels like this scene is somewhat familiar. Isn't this the method Big Hero Emiya used back then, destroying the treasures the moment they appeared, giving the opponent no time to launch them!
~Type-Moon World, Fourth Holy Grail War Worldline~
Gilgamesh straightened up slightly, carefully examining the scene.
“In the Reality Marble, his projection speed is enhanced, making it faster…”
Perhaps because the onlooker sees more than the player, Gilgamesh could clearly recognize that the swords projected from Shirou Emiya's Reality Marble were faster than the treasures launched from the Gate of Babylon, both in projection speed and attack speed.
In other words, within that Reality Marble, his Gate of Babylon was actually countered by the other party.
Any attempt to open the Gate of Babylon would be immediately blocked by Shirou Emiya.
“Huahahaha, delightful! Truly delightful. I am very interested in this Shirou Emiya…”
Thinking of this, Gilgamesh suddenly burst into wild laughter again. To be able to fight this King to this extent with a human body is truly worthy of praise.
However, even so, he didn't think he had any reason to lose. Even without using the Gate of Babylon, the physical gap between humans and Servants was not something they could overcome.
“……!”
Artoria had gradually become accustomed to the King of Heroes' occasional fits of madness. She was now looking at her future Master with some worry.
Although Shirou Emiya seemed to be in a good situation, this advantage only existed because Gilgamesh wasn't taking it seriously.
As long as the King of Heroes brought out his EA, this situation would be instantly reversed… even the Reality Marble would be shattered in an instant.
。。。。。
【 Shirou Emiya silently looked at Gilgamesh and continued, “There's no need to be surprised. Everything here is a fake! But… there's no reason why fakes can't defeat the real thing.” 】
【 “If you say that those are the so-called real things, then surpass everything and defeat them all.” 】
【 Hearing these mocking words, Gilgamesh felt looked down upon and revealed a rather ugly expression. He was clearly provoked by these words. 】
【 “Here I come, King of Heroes.” Shirou Emiya raised his head, and green markings began to appear on his face. “Do you have enough weapons in reserve?” 】
【 “Ha?!” Gilgamesh's gaze towards Shirou Emiya became fierce. “Don't be so arrogant, mongrel!!” 】
【 Because he had just been looked down upon by Shirou Emiya, Gilgamesh now opened the Gate of Babylon even faster than before. Several sword-shaped treasures flew out of the golden ripples at an extremely fast speed, heading towards Shirou Emiya. 】
【 “Clang, clang—” 】
【 The Reality Marble was filled with swords stuck everywhere! Shirou Emiya casually picked up two swords from the ground and shattered the two treasures that rushed over first! 】
【 Then, he quickly jumped back, dodging the treasure attacks that were like a golden storm! 】
【 Although Shirou Emiya temporarily dodged the attacks, Gilgamesh's attacks didn't stop. Before he could catch his breath, he saw several treasures flying towards him in the sky. 】
【 Shirou Emiya closed his eyes. The swords stuck in the ground seemed to consciously rush towards the treasures in the air, colliding with them in mid-air and negating the opponent's attacks! 】
【 “Why, how can a mongrel's swords…” Gilgamesh murmured, looking at this scene with great confusion. 】
【 “Don't understand?” Shirou Emiya slowly raised his head. He looked at Gilgamesh, his expression so calm, his tone somewhat mocking. “You, who possess countless treasures, are at the pinnacle of existence even among Heroic Spirits.” 】
【 “But, you are a King, but not a warrior.” 】
【 “You didn't choose the path of mastering a single treasure to its extreme.” Shirou Emiya picked up a sword, pointed it at Gilgamesh, and continued, “You are like me, a half-hearted failure!” 】
【 。。。。。】

“Who said that… You don't know the value of the Uruk Axe King. He played his axe so well in the Absolute Demonic Front!”
Even the people outside the video didn't expect to hear someone say that the King of Uruk wasn't good at close combat… From the perspective of Caster Gilgamesh, this guy was clearly all-around.
Apart from the Assassin class, which he disdained, Gilgamesh seemed to be able to handle every class.
~Type-Moon World, ██████ Worldline~
~In the 7th singularity, Absolute Demonic Front: Babylonia~
At this moment, the Wise King Gilgamesh, who was not called a warrior, silently looked at the golden axe beside him.
“Do you want to see what you're saying?! I am not a warrior?! Then, guess how I became acquainted with my best friend Enkidu when I didn't have the Gate of Babylon.”
The Wise King Gilgamesh never expected to be called a non-warrior by someone from another world… But the problem is, look at the class I was summoned as at that time, it's Archer, okay?!
Shouldn't an Archer play ranged combat properly instead of playing close combat?! If it weren't for the King's dignity, and not allowing myself to take this unfair duel seriously… once I'm serious, it's my defeat.
Otherwise, I would have knocked you down with an axe long ago.
~Type-Moon World, Fourth Holy Grail War Worldline~
“Hahahaha, what insightful eyes, Shirou Emiya!”
Even so, the King of Conquerors still shook his head slightly, clearly disagreeing with his words.
In his opinion, none of those who could become king was simple. Could there really be a king who doesn't know martial arts?!
“You can really talk, mongrel!”
At this moment, Gilgamesh felt like his head was about to explode. The King summoned as an Archer, should I fight back and forth with treasures like a reckless man?!
。。。。。
【 Hearing these words, Gilgamesh was almost blown up with anger. When had he ever been looked down upon like this? He looked at Shirou Emiya angrily, gritting his teeth and saying, “I will obliterate every last piece of your head that produces fakes!” 】
【 In the next moment, countless golden ripples reappeared in the sky of the Reality Marble, both in quantity and speed, stronger than before. Clearly, Gilgamesh, in anger, was now planning to be a little more serious. 】
【 On the other side, Rin Tohsaka, along with Shinji Matou, was trapped in the flowing flesh, unable to move. Saber, who came to support, couldn't do anything because Rin Tohsaka was inside. 】
【 “Is this the end?” Rin Tohsaka looked tiredly at the Command Seals on her hand, and finally made up her mind. “It won't end like this. By my Command Seal, I order you, Saber! Destroy the Holy Grail now.” 】
【 The holy sword in Artoria's hand shone with golden light, and her body began to be filled with magic power. “What… how could this be?! Rin… get out of there quickly.” 】
【 Rin Tohsaka had already resigned herself to death and apologized softly to Saber, “I'm sorry, Saber! You definitely won't listen to me, so I can only use the Command Seal to force you to obey.” 】
【 Just as Rin Tohsaka was about to give up, a familiar voice rang in her ear, “I can't stand to hear such discouraging words.” 】
【 Then, countless red swords split the red flesh, opening a path for Rin Tohsaka. “Run, Rin!” 】
【 Although there was no figure, and it was unclear what was going on, why the dead Archer could continue to help her open the way, Rin Tohsaka still supported herself and led Shinji Matou away from the flesh. 】
【 “Saber! I'll leave my last magic power to you.” Rin Tohsaka raised her right hand high, looking at the monster in the distance. The last Command Seal flickered with red light. “So… destroy that Holy Grail.” 】
【 Seeing that Rin Tohsaka had escaped, Artoria no longer suppressed her body, closing her eyes slightly! Golden light erupted from her body, and then she raised the Sword of Promised Victory high! 】
【 “Ex…” The Sword of Promised Victory emitted golden light, and specks of starlight surrounded the holy sword like fireflies! 】
【 “Calibur!!” 】
【 Artoria opened her eyes, and the raised holy sword suddenly swung down, a golden, holy torrent of magic power sweeping towards the monster not far away. 】
【 Everything that passed was destroyed, and even the hollow in the sky that was constantly pouring out black mud was directly destroyed by this attack. 】
【 “Rumble—!” With a burst of explosions, a dazzling cross of golden light lit up in the sky, and the shock wave swept through the entire Fuyuki City. Golden specks of light began to fall from the sky. 】
【 “So amazing…” Rin Tohsaka stared blankly at the golden light in the sky. 】
【 After doing all this, Artoria looked at her right hand. “The contract has been completed. You have won, Rin!” 】
【 “If possible… I wanted to protect you to the end, but that is not my duty.” 】
【 After Artoria finished speaking, she closed her eyes. Golden light appeared on her body, and her body gradually dissipated, returning to the Throne of Heroes. 】
【 。。。。。】
Author Note: Let's write about our King's shining moments… I should have written about Archer first; otherwise, it would be easier to see Archer's specialness here. He can come out even after death to save Rin Tohsaka… so there's a reason why Rin Tohsaka is called a holy widow.
