Countless swords emerged from behind him. Although Gilgamesh was still not using Ea, he was now serious enough.

"Nothing to be surprised about. These are all fakes. They're insignificant to you."

Having completed the construction of the world Shirou drew his sword with a cold smile.

"If you believe your genuine article is completely superior to mine, then defeat me here!"

The boy walked forward, determined to defeat the Golden King, who possessed immense wealth, while he himself was a penniless imposter.

"We're about to engage. Does the Hero King have enough weapons in reserve?"

The boy flirted with the King.

"Too arrogant, you bastard!"

Countless Noble Phantasm were unleashed.

Gilgamesh accepted Shirou Emiya's challenge.

On the wilderness, two opposing groups of swordsmen began their final, fierce battle.

Chapter 128 Gilgamesh's Tragic Night

When Archer (Red A) revealed that he could use Reality Marble, many people in the Mage world questioned Shinji, demanding that he explain why modern Magecraft Reality Marble.

Shinji's official explanation at the time was: because Archer (Red A), the future Guardian, has similar abilities to Shirou Emiya. Based on this coincidence, the script for Unlimited Blade Works was designed.

In reality, Archer (Red A Shirou Emiya are completely unrelated.

To borrow Xun Ge'er's words, "What does your seeking of the Heroic Spirit Emiya have to do with me, Shirou Emiya?"

Whether you believe it or not, I, Shinji Matou, the producer, screenwriter, and Director of the TV series UBW, believe it.

Now, after seeing Shirou Emiya's Reality Marble, all the Magecraft had only one thought in their minds—"I don't believe you for a second, Shinji Matou, you little rascal!"

Young people might not realize it, but those old men who have studied Magecraft for decades could tell at a glance that Shirou Emiya's Reality Marble was real.

This red-haired young man has truly unleashed his Reality Marble in this mysterious and ever-decreasing world.

"We spent two whole days preparing for this shot."

Touko, sitting on the sofa, complained to Azu.

"My junior first used two Command Spell to enhance Medea, and then Medea provided magical energy to Shirou Emiya, which allowed him to barely release his Reality Marble... although it only lasted for a short 10 minutes."

"You spent two days preparing for something this simple?"

Aoko didn't quite understand.

Touko shook her head. "Of course it's not simple. To ensure that Shirou Emiya's Magic Circuits wouldn't be damaged by forcibly releasing the Reality Marble, we took many precautions in advance. Just getting Medea and Shirou Emiya's magical energy synchronized took a long time."

Aoko shrank her neck. "It sounds like such a hassle."

Someone as careless as her hates delicate work the most.

"That junior seems particularly obsessed with getting Shirou Emiya to unleash his Reality Marble at least once," Touko sighed.

Aoko analyzed, "Is it because of those old men? They always say that Magecraft in this world is beyond saving, and only by uniting under their banner can Magecraft be saved. But in reality, they can't even create a Reality Marble."

Touko scoffed dismissively, "Because those old men aren't mentally strong enough. I really want to see what kind of expressions the people from the Clock Tower will have when they see someone capable of releasing Reality Marble."

"They'll probably preserve him in formaldehyde..."

Aoko's lips twitched slightly.

She suddenly had a strong urge to go to the Clock Tower, not for any other reason than to watch those old men's monkey show.

"But this sequence of shots lasted longer than 10 minutes, didn't it? How was the subsequent shots maintained?"

Watching Shirou Emiya constantly battling Gilgamesh with his Noble Phantasm on the screen, Azu seriously discussed the matter with Touko.

"Because the appearance of the Reality Marble was recorded using a crystal ball." Touko gently pushed up her glasses with her finger. "My junior always manages to come up with some unique ways to achieve the camera effects he wants."

"Of course, this is Mr. Matou. There's nothing he can't handle."

Azu nodded, her face beaming with pride.

Aoko, standing nearby, remarked, "I think this is a complete scripted murder mystery. If Gilgamesh had used Ea from the start, like he did against the King of Conquerors, even with his Reality Marble, Shirou Emiya would have been doomed to lose, right?"

Touko nodded. "That's true! But Gilgamesh is too arrogant; he doesn't have the mindset of going all out even when hunting a rabbit."

"Isn't that just a murder mystery game?" Aoko curled her lip in disdain. "They add this kind of outsider setting because they can't win."

"This..."

Touko got stuck, and said with a hint of frustration, "Aoko, if you have so many questions, why are you even watching this TV series?"

Aoko smiled nonchalantly, "Of course it's because it's fun! I love watching cute teenagers fight."

"Aoko, even though you're my sister, I hope you can be a little more normal..."

Touko muttered to herself, her face full of "This kind of person is actually my sister."

Aoko completely ignored Touko's words; her eyes were only on a certain handsome young man with his upper body bare— Shinji Matou.

"Wow~ That Matou Family kid is really good at self-deprecating humor! But he does have a great physique, is he just showing off his muscles in this scene?"

Aoko whistled loudly as she watched Tohsaka Rin pull Shinji Matou out of the pile of flesh.

"Perhaps. Now I understand why he was able to bombard the entire Clock Tower."

Touko sneered.

"I feel like there's something wrong with the word you used. Shouldn't it be 'bubble'?"

"What's the difference?"

"... No, there really isn't."

No problem, no problem, but Aoko still felt that something was off about what her sister had said.

Before Aoko could react, Azu poked her stomach with her finger.

"Look, the EA you mentioned has arrived."

"Really?"

A smile flickered in Aoko's eyes when she saw that familiar black and red drill bit.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

On the television screen, Shirou Emiya, relying on the home-field advantage of his Reality Marble, gradually gained the upper hand.

"I, the King, was actually suppressed!! By such a counterfeit!?"

The sound of swords clashing was crisp and loud.

Gilgamesh's Noble Phantasm was once again neutralized by Shirou Emiya.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!!!"

The berserk Gilgamesh was like a broken record, constantly unleashing his incompetent rage.

"You mere human, yet you dare force me, the king, to wield the sword of King!"

Faced with the choice between saving face and saving his life, Gilgamesh ultimately chose the latter.

The sword hilt that appeared behind Gigamesh was the only demonic Magic Sword that existed in this world.

"Don't even think about it!"

"Ah----!"

Gan Jiang Mo Ye instantly appeared in Shirou's hands, the black and white swords severing the golden King's hand.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha"*N

The moment Gilgamesh's elbow was severed, the Heroic Spirit in the lounge erupted in deafening laughter.

The laughter was so loud that Ophelia, who was watching TV, looked up at the ceiling, fearing that their laughter might cause it to collapse.

But that's not all.

When Gilgamesh, said, "Damn it—you're stronger now!" and retreated while acknowledging his defeat, the Heroic Spirit laughed even louder.

"He gave up!! That arrogant bastard finally admitted defeat!!"

"You actually admit defeat one day?! Hahaha! That's ridiculous!!!"

"Gilgamesh, give me a performance! Say your lines again while looking right in my face!"

Iskandar happily downed a whole bottle of beer in one gulp.

"That feels great! The Golden Gil, who managed to break through my Reality Marble, ultimately fell victim to someone else's Reality Marble. Is this what they call karma?!"

"What Reality Marble! Wasn't it that red fake that finished off the last blow?"

Gilgamesh knew he couldn't refute his defeat, so he resorted to nitpicking over the words.

After all, losing to a Servant is much more respectable than losing to a human.

Although this is only relative.

"Hahaha! Stop being so arrogant, just admit your defeat!"

Cú Chulainn, laughing wildly, opened his arms and invited the tightly bound Gilgamesh, "Come on, Gilgamesh. Welcome to our group of those leaving the stage!"

"You little dog... I think you're tired of living!"

Gilgamesh gritted his teeth and looked at Enkidu.

"Enkidu ..."

Gilgamesh had hoped for some comfort, heard only the strained sound of his friend's laughter.

"Puff--"

Enkidu turned his head away, his face slightly flushed. "I'm sorry, Gil... I just couldn't help it."

"..."

[I have been betrayed!!]

Gilgamesh had before his Tokiomi in Fate/Zero.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. If Enkidu want to see a joke, he wouldn't have tied himself up and forced him to watch TV dramas.

"You guys..."

Smack

The toothpick that was holding Gilgamesh's eyelids open snapped in two.

"... Do you think I'm a pushover if I don't unleash my fury?!"

Gilgamesh unleashed a fiery magical power from his entire body, even his hairstyle changed.

Is this a Super Saiyan transformation?

Seeing Golden Gil stand up from his chair, Cú Chulainn casually remarked.

"All of you, die before me! You little dog, you're the first one!"

An enraged Gilgamesh appeared.

Gilgamesh unleashed [Roar].

Bang!

Li Shuwen used the [No Second Strike] technique.

The effect is outstanding!

Thump.

The wild Gilgamesh fell.

The battle ended, Gilgamesh was plunged into darkness.

"Hmph, fighting is not allowed in the company."

Master Li straightened his Zhongshan suit and spoke with an air of otherworldly wisdom, displaying the demeanor of a highly accomplished person.

"Fool."
