Type-Moon/Fate World.
''No, no, that guy is obviously a completely different person from you.''
Tohsaka Rin had finally stopped obsessing over ''I'm the reincarnation of a goddess.''
She looked at Gilgamesh, then at the 'Wise King' on screen, shaking her head frantically—they absolutely weren't the same man.
'Hn?'' Gilgamesh frowned. 'That is this king. What are you questioning, mongrel?'
'You two aren't secretly twins, are you?'
Even Emiya Shirou hesitated; he could feel the difference between the Gilgamesh beside him and the Wise King in the video.
Their auras and manner of speech were nothing alike.
This Gilgamesh was a powder keg ready to explode—every other word was 'mongrel,' a tyrant who'd kill at the drop of a hat.
The Gilgamesh who appeared in the video spoke very calmly, giving people a sense of stability and reliability, like a wise monarch.
Especially the recent dialogue, "Will you devour the world, or will humanity be sufficient to Trailblaze this world?" even Tohsaka Rin felt he was a little bit handsome.
Of course, just a little bit.
"Idiot! This King does not have a twin brother!" Gilgamesh was furious, but he could tell.
The reason Tohsaka Rin and Emiya Shirou said this was because he was slightly different from 'him' in the video.
Since he was on the list, Gilgamesh was in a decent mood. He continued, "However, the King in the video should be from the period after he experienced the death of his best friend and searched for the Elixir of Immortality."
"And my current state is from an earlier phase."
As Gilgamesh said this, he was now able to speak calmly.
"Really?"
Although Tohsaka Rin remained skeptical, she still nodded slightly. Since she couldn't afford to provoke this Gilgamesh, she decided to trust him temporarily.
"Is this a King?"
Emiya Shirou also looked at Gilgamesh in the video, who was hosting Fujimaru Ritsuka and her group and leading the effort to boost morale, and exclaimed, "He's truly amazing, Your Majesty."
Although there were no longer Kings in this era, Emiya Shirou still felt that someone like Wise King Gilgamesh was the true monarch who drove the times forward.
Therefore, he greatly admired him.
"Hahahahaha, if you know how to talk, say more. Although this King won't let you off, if you praise me more, I guarantee you won't lack food or clothing for the rest of your days."
Gilgamesh stood on a streetlamp, laughing loudly, clearly enjoying Emiya Shirou's praise.
"..." Emiya Shirou looked helplessly at Gilgamesh.
Sure enough, he and the 'Wise King Gilgamesh' in the video were completely different people; their tone of voice was distinct.
demon slayer, inside Infinity Castle.
Kibutsuji Muzan, who was extremely antagonistic toward Gilgamesh, also frowned slightly. She felt something was strange.
Both are named Gilgamesh, so why do they feel like two completely different people to the demon?
"It's truly strange, strange in a certain sense."
Although Kibutsuji Muzan was confused, the Gilgamesh in this video didn't seem as strong as the Gilgamesh in the previous video.
After all, the other party hadn't pulled out the weapon named 'EA' yet.
In fact, it wasn't just the Demon Slayer World; it was the same in other worlds. They felt that the personalities of the two Gilgameshes were distinctly different.
The former was like an extremely arrogant tyrant, while the latter was a very wise monarch.
In the video, after a night passed and the operational meeting concluded, the first ray of morning sunlight fell.
It fell upon the only perfectly preserved city of this era.
The people watching the screen did not speak, but watched carefully. They could feel an epic sense washing over them—this was humanity's battle against the gods.
Just as Gilgamesh had said, would Goddess Tiamat devour the entire world, or would humanity survive this disaster?
They would wait and see.
Wise King Gilgamesh moved. He walked out of the Shrine, looked at the five hundred surviving Uruk citizens, and declared, "I announce this to all citizens remaining in Uruk!"
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked up at Wise King Gilgamesh.
Even Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash stopped their actions and looked at Wise King Gilgamesh above.
"Half a year ago, when the Demonic Beast Frontline began construction, this King told you that no matter how much you struggled, Uruk would be destroyed."
"You could have run away, indulged in pleasure, or even lamented as you entered the Underworld."
"But all of you expressed a desire to fight to the end. Even knowing the outcome, you decided to resist."
"Without a doubt, Uruk is a blessed city, including its history, its life, its citizens, and this King."
Wise King Gilgamesh crossed his arms. At this moment, a proud expression appeared on his face, and he also showed a very serious look as he loudly proclaimed, "Now, this King says it again!"
"Uruk is destroyed! This is an unchangeable fact!"
"But you do not need to grieve. And here is the reason!"
"As long as there is one person who can welcome the dawn of victory! Our form of life will be eternally engraved in their Remembrance."
"Even if we die in the end, even if we leave no descendants!"
"People will leave their will in the hearts of others! This is the bond of strength that humanity possesses!"
"It is not blood relation! It is the inheritance of intellect! It is the chain of life!"
Every time Wise King Gilgamesh spoke a sentence, the camera focused on the citizens below. Their expressions were so resolute, as if nothing could shake them.
"The destruction of Uruk does not mean our destruction!"
"We shall shine at the dawn of victory, using this light to connect to a new era!"
"Listen up! My elites!!"
"We shall deny the Goddess of Origin this very moment, and usher in a new era for humanity!!!"
"This is truly the farewell battle against the gods!"
Wise King Gilgamesh stretched out his hand, clenched his fist, and said firmly, "Offer your lives to the King!"
"To convey the glory of our Uruk to future generations!!"
"Oh————!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
As soon as these words fell, the citizens roared. Although there were no other words, this shout!
It was proof of the people's trust in their King. They were willing to sacrifice their lives for the King, for Uruk!
This was the War of Myths, the battle of farewell between humanity and the gods. The victor would gain everything, and the loser would lose everything.
"Mash," Fujimaru Ritsuka spoke. She looked at Wise King Gilgamesh above and the citizens beside her, saying calmly, "We must succeed."
"Yes! Senpai!" Mash replied firmly.
