I don't like the gods, I want to be a hero

"But it seems that it is not safe. I must confirm how much time the Great God's declaration can buy me."

The King of Heroes originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity when Seleus was confined to the ground to recover his physical strength, but after seeing Seleus's body that was still recovering quickly even though he was impaled by the spear of eternity, he decided to go first. Check the status of Seleus.

"There's still time...uh----!!!" Gilgamesh, who was using the omniscient and omnipotent star, suddenly showed a painful expression. He felt as if his brain had been hit hard with a sledgehammer. Once the ability is used, severe pain begins, and this pain is also accompanied by an unimaginable dizziness.

"Hmm!" The King of Heroes subconsciously wanted to reach out his hand to support his dizzy head to make himself feel better, but immediately felt the tearing pain from the injury on his arm.

"It was the explosion just now, which directly injured my head." Gilgamesh, who had recovered after a while, felt the pain and dizziness in his head, and his complexion became extremely pale.

"I hope it can be recovered before Seleus pulls out Gungnir, otherwise..."

Gilgamesh didn't say what he said later, but in the battle between the two future visions, one of them suddenly lost the ability to predict the future, and his consequences can be imagined.

Gilgamesh with a dignified expression turned his gaze to his only remaining arm. The one that was shattered by the Illusion Crash had no possibility of recovery, so the arm injured by Serius' destructive power It is the last resistance of the King of Heroes in hand-to-hand combat.

"instigate----"

A golden ripple opened against Gilgamesh's body, and a chain flowing with golden light protruded from the ripple.

"Enkidu!"

With Gilgamesh's soft groan, the chain came alive in an instant, and he seemed to be conscious, and wrapped around the damaged arm of the King of Heroes.

"Now I can only use the Sky Lock to assist the movement of the arm. That guy's destructive power is really troublesome." Gilgamesh manipulated the Sky Lock to move his arm. Able to freely use his hands to resist Serius' battle axe.

"Why do you have Odin's Gungnir in the treasury of the king of Uruk, and you can also liberate part of the abilities of the Great God's Declaration? Isn't this a bit too much!"

With his vocal cords repaired, Seleus complained to the King of Heroes. He knew exactly what kind of power the spear of eternity possessed that pinned him to the ground. It was precisely because of this understanding that he could not accept Gilga. The act of Meish taking out and freeing Gungnir's ability to pin him down.

"I have collected all the treasures of Sumer, and Sumer is the origin of all Western civilization. In terms of this origin, it is normal for me to have all the original treasures in the world."

"After understanding this point, it is not difficult to understand why Gungnir, the original text of the must-hit gun, appears in my treasure house."

Although he knew how embarrassing his image was in front of his close friends, Gilgamesh still introduced his abilities to Seleus in a proud tone.

"And Uruk is the center of Sumer, and I, Gilgamesh, am the absolute center of Uruk. Therefore, as the oldest king, I have become the prototype of all heroes in the world."

"So it's normal for me to be able to liberate these original scriptures, but because there are too many original scriptures, only a small part of them can be truly remembered by me."

Although the King of Gold is engaged in a fierce duel involving life and death, according to common sense, he should not disclose information about his own abilities to his opponent.Especially in the face of Seleus, a close friend that Gilgamesh had to take twelve parts of his strength to take seriously.

But Gilgamesh still said it, and frankly without a trace of concealment.Is it because he can't see the hope of victory, so he abandons himself and wants to show off in front of his best friends?

of course not!

On the contrary, it is precisely because Gilgamesh desires to win that he introduces his abilities to his best friends.

Seleus is the only existence in the world who is recognized by the King of Gold and regarded as his best friend.Therefore, Gilgamesh knows the character of Seleus very well, and knows the most prominent characteristic of the red-haired hero's character-extraordinary caution in the face of the unknown.

Yes, be cautious.

It’s like watching a guide and playing an RPG adventure game. Knowing the cause, process, and result of the event in advance makes the players lose the slightest interest in most of the plots. They just want to quickly end the dialogue and skip it. The process, quickly play the ending, and then continue to watch the strategy to start again, in order to play another different ending.

In the past, Seleus was a perfectionist player who watched the guide and played the game. The same power as the guide would always inform Seleus of all the results before things happened, which made Seleus fully aware of the process of the matter. He didn't have the slightest interest in it, and he just wanted to hurry up and end things in the direction he wanted.

But what kind of performance will a perfectionist player who is accustomed to relying on strategies suddenly find himself selected to become a completely open-ended game player who will usher in a bad ending if he makes a wrong move?

He will search every corner of the map little by little, for fear that he will miss some key props and cause himself to fail to achieve his goal; he will watch all the prompts in the game over and over again, for fear that he will miss a certain process and cause I haven't met a certain key person; he will take the trouble to save multiple times every time he encounters a branch, for fear that he will not choose one and reach the wrong ending...

The current Serius is a perfectionist player who relies on strategy, but has to be careful in opening up wasteland.

Seleus was glad that he was able to meet that girl named Ilia who was like a snow elf; he was glad that he had the ability to change her tragic fate; and he was most grateful that he had a chance to save this girl. ..

But Seleus, who came as Berserker, lost his 'strategy', so he couldn't afford to lose, so he could only face all the unknowns cautiously.

Gilgamesh took advantage of Seleus' caution. He introduced the ability of the King's Treasure to Seleus, which was equivalent to warning Seleus in disguise. He has countless treasures that can cause various strange effects. at this point.

Gilgamesh knew that after understanding the ability of the King's Treasure, the cautious Serius would always save some of his strength in the subsequent battles to guard against possible strange treasures, which would relieve the pressure on the King of Gold a lot .

As for why Seleus is still so cautious when he has foresight, it is necessary to explain the ability of foresight-before Seleus suffers damage in various senses, the cause of the damage will be in Seleuth appeared in Si's mind.

That is, only attacks that successfully deal damage to Seleus will be predicted by Foresight, which makes Foresight very limited.

Seleus couldn't guarantee that after dodging the attack predicted by the foresight, he would hit an attack that would not cause him any damage; nor could he guarantee that he would still have the strength to dodge that attack after seeing the foresight screen.

Besides, Serius didn't know that Gilgamesh was playing psychological warfare here because the omniscient and omnipotent star could not be used for the time being. Wang took advantage of the limitations of his foresight and got caught.

Therefore, when Gilgamesh revealed Gungnir, in order to achieve a perfect victory for himself, Seleus could only reserve part of his strength in the battle to prevent possible crises.

"That's really... a remarkable ability." Serius, whose body has almost recovered, grabbed Gungnir's handle with all his strength, trying to pin the eternal gun to him with all his strength. The gun was drawn.

"But then again, Jill, why didn't you attack me while I was restrained by Gungnir?" Seleus fixed his gaze on Gilgamesh in the distance, and then asked tentatively. "Now I don't have the ability to resist at all."

'No resistance at all?Who are you kidding? Gilgamesh glanced at the battle ax firmly grasped in one hand of Seleus, and the destructive light that kept flowing in the crimson pupils.

The King of Gold knew very well that attacking Seleus at this time would be of no use other than wasting his hard-earned stamina...

"I have no intention of taking advantage of others, but you, if you want to decide the outcome sooner and return to that... girl, then you must quickly break free from the restraint of Gungnir. Don't make me wait." Gilgamesh faced his best friend with a proud attitude.

"Then I really appreciate your magnanimity, Jill." Seleus watched Gilgamesh's every move, and the red-haired hero naturally understood that his best friend didn't do it because he was afraid of his battle ax and the power of destruction. attack.

'But why? 'Selius couldn't figure it out.

Even if you do have a certain ability to resist, but the body is nailed to the ground and cannot move, and you have to use one hand to pull out the gun of eternity, no matter how you say it, it is worse than the situation of regaining freedom.But why didn't Gilgamesh take advantage of this opportunity to attack, but sat back and watched himself escape from the restriction?

"It's impossible for Jill not to know that once he gets out of trouble, he can't resist my next attack with his current body... Does he not want to win? '

Having reached this level, Seleus did not believe that Gilgamesh would suddenly give up the victory, which means that the King of Heroes must have his own intentions in not attacking him now, and it is likely to directly determine the victory of this battle.

'But what is it? 'Selius thought about the possible plots of Gilgamesh, but he couldn't think of a reason why he would not attack himself now.

'wrong! 'Selius suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind.

'My victory conditions and Jill's are not equal at all, so there is no need for him to waste energy when he can't cause decisive damage to me. 'Selius finally knew Gilgamesh's plan.

From the very beginning, the victory conditions of Seleus and Gilgamesh are completely different. Seleus only needs to send Gilgamesh back to the Hall of Valor, and completely cut off the plan of the King of Gold to achieve his goal.

But Gilgamesh is not that simple. With the all-knowing and omnipotent star, he knows that the strength of Seleus lies in the immortality that can be matched with foresight and hindsight.

The sudden attack was almost locked by the foresight. Even if he forcibly killed Seleus with the covering blow of the high-level Noble Phantasm, the blessing of immortality controlled by the will would make Seleus stand up again, and the ability of hindsight It also makes Seleus resistant to previous attacks, so killing Seleus was not on Gilgamesh's mind in the first place.

As for depleting Sirius' magic power, making him unable to maintain his own body is even more nonsense. With the Holy Grail and the magic power supply like Illiana's nuclear power plant, Gilgamesh himself must be the first to fail.

And from the foresight, Seleus, who saw the encounter with the Master, must have come to the church to fight Gilgamesh with the Master hidden. In this case, the King of Gold has no way to break through Seleus to stop him from finding the Master directly...

'That is to say, if Jill wants to win, he must seize an opportunity to beat me into a state where I can't resist, and then directly pass me to kill...For my sake, I should only use that The dagger breaks my contract with Illya, and if I do so, I will be out of the field because I lack the magic power to maintain my existence. '

'Now that I have figured out that Jill is accumulating strength and going to make a tough move, I can't be delayed by Gungnir for too long. After figuring out what Gilgamesh was thinking, Seleus let go of the battle ax in his hand, poured his magic power into his hands, and tried his best to pull out the nail with his hands wrapped in crimson flames. Live the gun of eternity.

'hateful!Have you been noticed? Gilgamesh's face darkened when he saw Serius suddenly gave up his defense after contemplating and tried his best to lift Gungnir's restraint.

"In that case..." Gilgamesh changed his mind instantly, he raised his hand while manipulating the sky lock, and five golden ripples immediately appeared behind him. "Let's compare and see whether you escaped from the restriction first under my interception, or if I regain the power of the all-knowing and omnipotent star before you escape..."

Chapter 22 The Lesser Grail

Five golden ripples were aimed at Serius who was drawing his gun with all his strength, but Gilgamesh's purpose was to delay the speed of Sirius' drawing his gun, so he didn't use saturated fire coverage to deal with it like he did at the beginning Serius, instead, used another delayed-fire method.

The first to shoot were two sharp swords and a golden ax spear, all of which were treasures capable of causing effective damage to Seleus, and all aimed at Seleus' upper body.

"boom--!"

The crimson beam of light swept across, and the destructive power contained in it instantly detonated the treasure that was shot at Serius.

But Serius did not breathe a sigh of relief, but looked solemnly at the two spears that followed him.

"One was aimed at my right thumb, and judging from the light flowing on the spear, once it hits my thumb, I will spend a lot of time recovering my right hand..."

"And the other spear is just an ordinary treasure, it probably can't even pierce my defense..."

Seleus made a decision in an instant. He stretched out his left hand, and used the palm of his left hand to block the high-level spear.

"Pfft!"

The sound of a sharp weapon piercing the flesh sounded, and the spear pierced Serius' palm smoothly, but the hero's tough muscles and bones stuck the rest of the spear tightly, so that the spear did not hurt Serius. right hand.

"Dole!"

Serius thought that the remaining spear would be bounced off by his own muscles, but he didn't expect this low-level treasure to avoid all the parts of Serius' body, and pierced Seleus at a very clever angle. Lucy's right arm was in the gap between his body and the muscle that his right hand used to exert force happened to be stuck.

"Oops!" Serius' face darkened in an instant. He really didn't expect that Gilgamesh's real killing move in this attack turned out to be this humble long spear.

"How do you feel now?" Gilgamesh, who had achieved his goal, looked happy. "Even Serius, who is unparalleled in strength, will not be able to use his strength if his muscles are restricted like this."

The King of Gold, who had succeeded in his scheme, smiled and opened up more golden ripples, and even took a step forward provocatively.

"I remember that there were people here just now who were mocking the use of tactics in battle, but why did that person disappear in a blink of an eye?" Unaccustomed to Gilgamesh's current look of a villain, Seleus was angry hit back.

"I was scolded badly by that person for using tactics just now. Jill, you are more eloquent than me. Can you teach me a lesson when you meet that guy?"

"You bastard!" Gilgamesh, who was still in joy, became very annoyed when he heard Sirius' words.

Swords, halberds, spears, and axes Gilgamesh shot all the weapons of the treasury door that had been opened before towards Seleus, but immediately after, the King of Gold began to regret that his offensive was too impulsive .

The crimson light of destruction flickered again, and the treasure thrown by Gilgamesh was detonated together with the long spear stuck in Serius' arm.

"So, Jill, it's easy to lose if you are swayed by your emotions in battle."

Gilgamesh made a big mistake. With the spear already stuck in the muscles of Seleuth, the treasure he prepared should not be released, instead of shooting out in a volley like this, which would make Seleuth S out of trouble.

Because the muscle was stuck greatly affected the efficiency of Seleus, so Seleus, who could not delay the time, had to pull out or destroy the spear as soon as possible.

However, under the current circumstances, Seleus only has the ability of his left hand and the light of destruction to deal with the long spear, and Gilgamesh only needs to see when Seleus uses his left hand or the light of destruction to shoot at Seleuus again with a delayed shot. If Seleus attacked, Seleus would be helpless.

After all, there is no way to resist so many treasures with only one left hand, and the power of the destructive light cannot be fired in succession. Every time it is used up, there will be a period of vacuum that can completely allow the treasure of Gilgamesh to fly over , it can be said that the King of Gold just now has fully grasped the initiative in this battle.

However, Gilgamesh lost a good situation because of a momentary impulse.

After defusing another wave of offensive from the King of Gold, Seleus slapped the spear of eternity on his chest with his left hand, so as to make the spear that pierced his left hand fall off, and then both hands burst out with powerful magic power Undulating, he tried his best to slowly pull out the Eternal Spear.

"Really..." Gilgamesh frowned tightly, his omniscience and omnipotence hadn't fully recovered, but when he saw Serius who was about to pull out the spear of eternity, he gritted his teeth and opened a Huge incomparable golden ripples.

A gigantic sword that was as dazzling as the sun protruded from the ripples. The sword was always burning with flames, as if it itself was made of flames.

"Laevatein!" Gilgamesh resisted the severe pain in his head and released part of the power of the flaming sword.

The air was distorting, the world was boiling, and the huge sword wrapped in hot flames smashed towards Serius fiercely with the momentum of cutting mountains and boiling seas.

"boom!"

Revertin destroyed everything that stood in his way, and at the same time, the extreme heat spread out at an astonishingly high temperature, and the blazing karmic fire ignited everything on the mountain...

"Did you succeed?" The King of Gold wanted to confirm the state of Serius, but before he could take a step, he staggered and fell to the ground.

Revertin is a precious treasure carefully chosen by Gilgamesh. The huge sword can firmly suppress the body of Serius, and the flame that can burn the underworld will continue to cause damage to Serius. .Presumably, even an immortal hero would be unable to move after being suppressed by this giant sword.

"In this case, the only thing left is to recover the strength to find the master of Serius, and then use the talisman that breaks all spells to cut off their bond... Uh!!!" Gilgamesh suddenly let out a cry A scream of pain.

"Really! Really! I never thought that I would be so embarrassed one day. The side effects of forcibly using the omniscient and omnipotent star are too huge, so I want to delay some time..."

Gilgamesh narrowed his eyes, looking at the sea of ​​flames suppressed by the giant sword with a somewhat complicated expression. "This time, I should win... Poof!"

The King of Gold's eyes widened suddenly, and he saw a sharp spear made of tree branches piercing through him as if crossing the space. Not far away, a burly giant who lost half of his body was staggering towards him. come over.

"You bastard, you actually gave part of your body to..."

"Actually, I wanted to do this a long time ago, but I was worried that if I lost half of my body, I would not be able to parry your Noble Phantasm attack, so I gave up this method." Dragging half of his body, Seleus directly collapsed on Gilgamesh what side. "Seeing that you tried your best to free Revertin, I cut off a part of my body and escaped."

"Really?" Gilgamesh felt the life force fading away in his body, and his tone was rather helpless. "It seems that I won't complain about the loss."

"Stop talking so much nonsense." Seleus interrupted Gilgamesh's emotion. "Hurry up and take out the agreed upon golden apple now, otherwise there will be nothing to do in a while."

"The reason for working so hard is because of that girl?"

"Otherwise? I don't need to work so hard just to beat you."

"I really can't do anything about you." Although he was a little displeased with his best friend's attitude, Gilgamesh, who was willing to admit defeat, simply took out a golden apple from the treasury and handed it to Serius.

Seeing his best friend throwing half of his body aside casually, and then carefully taking the golden apple, Gilgamesh decided to remind his best friend.

"Speaking of which, do you have any wishes to fulfill in response to the Holy Grail's call?"

"Wish." Seleus sighed, although he didn't know why Gilgamesh asked this question suddenly and thoughtlessly, but he still told the truth. "Does Jill know my body condition?"

"I understand a little bit."

As early as when he was in Uruk, Gilgamesh could detect an indescribable terrifying aura from Seleus from time to time.

At that time, Gilgamesh had asked about the source and nature of Seleus' aura, but the red-haired friend hesitated and mumbled it all.

The question that could not be answered undoubtedly aroused the curiosity of the King of Gold. He secretly used the future vision to check when Serius was not paying attention, but he directly met a golden eye, and then his consciousness was sent back. own body.

Although the golden eyes are extremely huge, Gilgamesh, who had seen Seleus's "beast" form with different-colored pupils in a dream, still recognized that golden eyes as his best friend Seleus. Lucy also roughly understood the reason for the terrifying aura emanating from Serius.

"Now that you know it, you should understand that even if I have a wish to come true, I can't get it through this Great Holy Grail that only holds Fuyuki's 60-year magic power." Seleus spread out his only remaining hand, his tone It seemed a little helpless. "The gap in rank is too great."

"Huh—?!" Hearing that Seleus said that he did not respond to the Holy Grail's wish, Gilgamesh's eyes showed a look of optimism.
