His small head was patted by Wei Gong, and his eyes immediately welled up with tears as he glared at the other person.
"You've already used up your allowance for the month, and you're asking me to send you more money? If you dare to spend any more on gacha, I'll break your legs!"
Wei Gong smiled gently, but his words were completely at odds with his expression.
"Hmph, you stingy old man!"
Luo Ya pouted and looked at the news. "King Arthur and Mordred are probably coming for Nameless. I wonder if I'll be able to latch onto them then."
"And if the King of Heroes shows up, I'll need to latch onto him even more!"
These were all her favorite Heroic Spirits.
Especially the King of Heroes, whom she dreamed of meeting.
Every time, she dreamed of sleeping on a huge pile of glittering gold coins!
"Stop dreaming. You're just a normal person. If they were to send student representatives, they'd definitely choose a magic prodigy."
Wei Gong mercilessly crushed her hopes.
He, however, was a little suspicious.
The head of Academy City was that troublesome fox, and he wondered if she would get involved in this.
If that troublemaker, like Merlin, wanted to see King Arthur and Mordred have a father-daughter moment, things would get messy!
It had nothing to do with him anyway.
If the sky fell, the tall ones would hold it up. Right now, he was just an ordinary high school student in Sakura Islands.
He was content to be a spectator.
Now, Wei Gong was more worried about what Golden Flash was planning.
That guy had Clairvoyance. He wondered if he could see him...
Holy Grail War Magic Academy.
In Administrative District 1, many high-ranking officials gathered.
Before everyone stood Abe no Seimei, dressed in a classical white onmyoji robe and a black, high-crowned hat.
He pointed to the news and said, "The order has been issued from above. We, the Holy Grail War Academy, are responsible for the reception."
The Holy Grail War Magic Academy was the largest magic experimental zone in Dragon Country, dedicated to the popularization of magic education.
Once the experiment was complete, it would be promoted throughout Dragon Country and become part of the basic 12-year education.
In short--
It was a magic guinea pig experimental base.
However, many called it a guinea pig experiment, yet they were all sour grapes, unable to get in.
If they had the chance, they would definitely come at any cost!
The magic prodigies of the entire Sakura Islands were gathered here.
It was managed by the genius onmyoji Abe no Seimei and the Nine-tailed Fox Tamamo no Mae, who was so powerful that the First Emperor had to personally suppress her.
In front of them.
A woman in a blue and gold kimono stood by the floor-to-ceiling window.
Behind her, three large, fluffy golden fox tails swayed gently, enough to instantly conquer countless fur lovers.
Her proud figure was even more breathtaking.
Her enchanting face, as if favored by the entire world, held a faint smile. "How strange. That person is actually willing to come out?"
Everyone else, including Abe no Seimei, did not dare to meet her golden eyes.
It was unavoidable.
This Nine-tailed Fox possessed terrifying charm, capable of enchanting all beings.
Even Heroic Spirits found it difficult to resist!
And this was only her incomplete three-tailed form.
If all nine tails were present--
The thought alone was suffocatingly terrifying!
Abe no Seimei emphasized again, "The Prime Minister has instructed that that King is coming for Nameless. We are to entertain her carefully and avoid causing any disturbance, lest His Majesty be angered!"
This Nine-tailed Fox was quite fond of causing trouble.
To make her behave, he had no choice but to invoke the First Emperor's authority to pressure her.
"Heh heh~"
Tamamo no Mae chuckled softly.
Her soul-enchanting voice made the female high-ranking officials blush.
To minimize her charm's influence, all high-ranking officials in the academy, except for Abe no Seimei, were women.
However!
This fox's charm is completely genderless; even women can't resist it!
A group of women have all become confirmed spinsters, vowing to marry no one but her!
Abe no Seimei quickly stepped forward, blocking everyone. "Regarding the selection of student representatives to welcome King Arthur and his entourage, what are your thoughts, Dean?"
"Oh, who are they?"
Tamamo no Mae looked at a form listing one outstanding student after another.
The genius mage Tohsaka Rin, and even more genius Ilya, and so on.
Each student possessed monstrous talent, making them candidates to host the Heroic Spirits.
Tamamo no Mae said nonchalantly, "All genius mages? Pick an ordinary person."
As far as she was concerned, if not for Emperor First's command, she wouldn't bother with these trivial matters concerning ordinary people at all.
She'd rather go find that [Nameless] and see whose charm was stronger!
A mere man, yet he made female Heroic Spirits, male Heroic Spirits, and even beings without gender simultaneously admire him.
Could he truly possess EX-rank [Charm]?
"An ordinary person? Alright, no problem."
Abe no Seimei was slightly taken aback but showed no refusal whatsoever.
Despite being known as the Academy City of Magecraft, ninety-nine percent of its hundreds of thousands of students were ordinary people.
Abe no Seimei made the decision, "Then let these geniuses make recommendations."
Uruk.
After the video ended.
Everyone fell into silence, looking cautiously at their King, who remained speechless.
The Minister of Finance asked with a slight sheen of sweat on his forehead, "Your Majesty, is what was shown in the video true?"
"Everything is true."
Gilgamesh looked at them with a faint smile.
At this, everyone broke out in a cold sweat.
They had previously cursed Nameless relentlessly, believing the video was pure fabrication, an intentional smear against the King.
As it turned out, the video was real!
This meant that the King and that Nameless were truly friends!
Would the King hold them accountable later?
Gilgamesh, however, paid no attention to their reactions.
Upon seeing the news of King Arthur heading to the Dragon Country's Fusang State, he let out a pleased smile. "Nameless, it seems, you scoundrel, you finally need this King's assistance!"
Thousands of years had passed since their parting in the Age of Gods.
Gilgamesh had never expected that Nameless had not died!
He had used himself as the ultimate fuel to activate the Calamity Sword's greatest power, severing the connection between man and god with a single strike, creating a future for humanity.
Brilliant and brief, like a shooting star.
The deaths of his two closest friends right before his eyes plunged Gilgamesh into endless grief.
However, He was King.
Shouldering the future of countless people in Uruk, he could not show the slightest hint of sorrow.
He could only suppress all his pain and continue to manage and lead the entire nation.
And now, you're telling him Nameless never died?
Gilgamesh felt severely deceived.
Only now did he finally understand Nameless's words as he disappeared at the end--
[Golden Flash, because I won't stop. As long as you don't stop, you will definitely see me ahead.]
[So, don't stop...]
This wasn't simply an expectation for him to lead humanity toward a bright future.
It also meant that the other party had not died at all.
As long as he, in the form of a Heroic Spirit, descended into the era where Nameless was, they could meet again.
Gilgamesh eagerly anticipated their reunion.
A gathering after thousands of years, he had to go all out for his friend, help him resolve all crises.
Then.
Stab a friend in the back!
"You really are a bastard!"
Gilgamesh laughed heartily.
When they met, he would return every single word the other person had said back to them.
"You want my help? Then kneel and beg me!"
At that time, Nameless's expression would surely be priceless. Just thinking about it made him feel even more delighted.
The Minister of Finance cautiously asked, "Your Majesty, should we hold a press conference?"
Previously, the Emperor of France, Joan, and Britain's King Arthur, Artoria, had both held relevant press conferences.
They confirmed the videos, established that [Nameless] truly existed, and even shouted across the void, wanting to summon him before them.
Now, it was the most arrogant and powerful King of Heroes' turn.
Everyone watched him expectantly, wanting to know how he planned to respond.
"No need!"
Gilgamesh waved his hand dismissively.
A mere press conference was unnecessary for someone he approved of.
