Chapter 828: The Hero King's Fear
Chapter 828: The Hero King's Fear
Upon hearing Yecheng's words, like a superior being, Gilgamesh couldn't help but feel irritated.
However, it must be said that at this moment, facing Yecheng, his hands trembled slightly against his will.
Fear? Absurd! Gilgamesh would never admit to feeling fear towards a mere human!
He was Gilgamesh, the Primordial King, hailed as the Hero King, who once stood against the gods. How could a mere human, no matter how special, make him, Gilgamesh, feel fear?
Though this was his mindset, the fact was that after being thoroughly beaten by Yecheng several times and witnessing Yecheng's power that forced Diarmuid and Iskandar to retreat, Gilgamesh's confidence began to waver, though he refused to acknowledge it.
Could he win by drawing out the Schism Sword Ea? On this point, Gilgamesh had absolute confidence.
But after seeing Yecheng single-handedly confront tens of thousands of Heroic Spirits without using a trace of mana, Gilgamesh's confidence began to falter.
"Damn that insolent fool, I'll make you understand the price of humiliating me!"
After a brief internal struggle, Gilgamesh decided to accept the challenge.
After all, he was one of the kings, and Iskandar's death was so glorious. If he were to be outdone by his opponent, how could he claim to be the Primordial King?
Gilgamesh reached into the 'Royal Treasury' and drew out a sword with a golden metal hilt and a black blade divided into three spiral segments, adorned with intricate red patterns like ancient inscriptions.
The Sword of Rupture, Ea, was one of the most powerful Noble Phantasms among all, even among the 'Divine Artifacts.'
It was an incredibly powerful and rare 'Anti-World Noble Phantasm,' and its rank was as high as the Ex-Class.
For Yecheng to defeat Gilgamesh before he could use Ea was impossible, as Golden Spark was an Archer, not a Saber.
But if that were the case, everything would be too dull.
A sword capable of cutting through the world was something Yecheng wanted to witness for himself.
As he watched Yecheng stand in place, waiting for Gilgamesh's attack without any extra movement, Gilgamesh's face turned red with embarrassment!
When had he, Gilgamesh, ever been so disregarded? If his opponent wanted to play games, then he must pay a painful price.
As Gilgamesh raised the Schism Sword, the three spiral segments on the blade spun faster and faster, and the intricate red patterns on the blade emitted a dazzling light.
Sensing a hint of danger, Yecheng gathered his mana, ready to act, but Golden Spark, poised to attack, suddenly vanished without a trace before him!
Gilgamesh's sudden disappearance startled Yecheng, who then scanned the surroundings and realized that Faruzuki Tokito and Kirei Shiki's figures had long since vanished.
It was clear that these two had escaped during the others' intense battle and fled to a safe area, where Faruzuki Tokito used a Command Spell to summon Gilgamesh.
In the Cathedral Church, Faruzuki Tokito, who had just escaped from the Faruzan Family, still bore a lingering fear.
He patted Kirei Shiki's shoulder beside him and sighed, "Kirei, I really owe you this time.
"Previously, although Faruzuki Tokito and Kirei Shiki had not become the targets of other Heroic Spirits' attacks, they were surrounded by the Draconic Soldier army and could not easily escape, even with their abilities.
Fortunately, Kirei Shiki later used Command Spells to force Assassin, who was only at half strength, to clear a path for them.
However, because of this, Assassin Hassan-e Sabbah, with his many faces, ended up dying amidst the vast army of Draconic Soldiers, making him the most pitiful Heroic Spirit to meet his end.
Even though Hassan-e Sabbah's abilities were not exceptional, he was still a Heroic Spirit, and dealing with the Magic Constructs like the Draconic Soldiers was like child's play for him.
The problem was that Hassan-e Sabbah had split himself into too many forms, and half of his strength was lost when his clones were slapped to death by Anubis. As a result, his power significantly decreased, and he could only helplessly succumb to the Draconic Soldier army.
After ensuring their safety, Faruzuki Tokito, looking at the Command Spell in his hand, first thought of his father... no, his Heroic Spirit, Gilgamesh. So, he quickly used the Command Spell to summon him.
As for Gilgamesh, who was forcibly summoned, when he saw Faruzuki Tokito and Kirei Shiki, he finally realized what had happened. The excitement that had initially appeared on his face instantly cooled down.
He, Gilgamesh, was just a step away, a mere hair's breadth away from using the Schism Sword Ea to split Yecheng into two. But at this critical moment, Faruzuki Tokito, that idiot, had used a Command Spell to call him back!
Gilgamesh's lack of confidence in facing Yecheng stemmed primarily from the latter's martial prowess. The fact that Yecheng had previously given him the chance to use Ea without regard for his life was baffling.
Gilgamesh had absolute confidence in his most powerful Noble Phantasm and was certain that if he successfully unleashed his sword, Yecheng would undoubtedly perish.
But this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity had now been squandered by Faruzuki Tokito, that fool! Gilgamesh had already been extremely dissatisfied with Faruzuki Tokito's repeated use of Command Spells to command him, and now his frustration reached its limit.
So, with a glance from Gilgamesh, Kirei Shiki, whom Faruzuki Tokito trusted as a close disciple, slowly approached Faruzuki Tokito from behind...
At this moment, the Faruzuki residence, which was once a luxurious mansion, had become a ruin after the previous intense battle.
Indeed, the battle was fierce; in this night's fight alone, Lancer, Lancer, and Assassin had already withdrawn.
As for the Masters, only Kenneth met his end here tonight, dying from being overwhelmed by the Draconic Soldiers after his mana was exhausted.
Waver Velvet was spared by Yecheng, while Faruzuki Tokito, Kirei Shiki, and Shirou Emiya had already disappeared without a trace.
After witnessing Gilgamesh being forcibly summoned away by Faruzuki Tokito's Command Spell, Yecheng glanced at Saber, who was still fighting, and immediately used magic to seal the surrounding space.
'In this world, light exists, and the spirit is the lock, the soul the chain. All that binds is evil!
Binding Spell Sixty-Three: Chain Bind!'
A glowing chain shot out, and Saber, who was still fighting Medea, was instantly bound in a turtle shell-like position by the chain.
Seeing Saber's movements restricted by Yecheng, Medea's face lit up with excitement, and she slowly approached Saber, drawing her Noble Phantasm, 'Thousand Spell Breaking Dagger'..."
