Chapter 21

(Gilgamesh)

Kayneth: "Wait a minute, isn't that Lord El-Melloi II who appeared in yesterday's video!"

Kayneth: "Waver! Lord El-Melloi II is actually you?!"

The message brought by the end of this video is too shocking for him.

The Lord El-Melloi II he has been searching for is actually Waver, the student who has been working against him all along.

Waver: "Regarding this question, if you ask me..."

Feng Xi: "Judging from Rin Tohsaka's age in the video, the end of the video should be ten years from now."

Feng Xi: "Waver, what on earth did you experience over these years to change so drastically?"

Waver: "I want to know the answer to that question too!"

God knows how in just over ten years, he went from a beautiful boy to an overworked uncle.

Kayneth: "Wait a minute, you became Lord El-Melloi II, then what about me?"

This is the thing Kayneth wants to figure out the most right now.

Since Waver became Lord El-Melloi II, doesn't that mean he is gone?

Could it be that it happens in this Holy Grail War?

[The second question has ended; we will now begin the last question of the day.]

[This is a multiple-answer question. Please watch the following images and select the ones that are not the King of Heroes.]

Waver: "Ah, this kind of question again."

Yesterday's question really screwed them over; they still have psychological trauma.

Kayneth: "Looking at the meaning of this question, it's saying that the King of Heroes, like King Arthur, has many individuals in different worlds?"

King of Heroes: "Hahaha, that's a matter of course; my heroic figure is spread all over the world."

King of Conquerors: "Yesterday was the King of Knights, today is the King of Heroes; tomorrow should be my turn, right?"

Waver: "According to the pattern of this system's questions, it's possible."

[A: The image is of Gilgamesh with drooping hair, wearing a black motorcycle suit, riding a golden motorcycle.]

Waver: "This, this should be Gilgamesh, right?"

Feng Xi: "It feels like this outfit is a bit too modern; it feels like a misdirection."

Waver: "Yeah."

King of Conquerors: "Hahaha, King of Heroes, so you are also interested in modern transportation?"

King of Conquerors: "Since that's the case, should we have a race?"

Waver: "Better not."

King of Heroes: "Ha, how could such a thing enter my eyes?"

Although he says that, but...

"Tohsaka, go get me a motorcycle, one just like the one in this picture."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "...Yes, King."

[B: This image shows a little child; the appearance is clearly Gilgamesh, wearing a purple shirt, white coat, and camouflage pants, with long chains circling around him.]

My Lady: "So cute."

Artoria: "So the King of Heroes also has this appearance?"

King of Conquerors: "Hahaha, I can compare this to what I looked like when I was a child."

Gilgamesh: "..."

Seeing this image, Gilgamesh subconsciously opens his treasury and takes out a bottle of medicine.

He can be sure that the boy in this image is himself, because the Chains of Heaven around the boy in the image cannot be faked.

If that's the case, there are only two possibilities for himself in the image.

One is that he was summoned directly as a child, or the version of himself in the image drank this bottle of youth-restoring medicine for some reason.

He is more inclined toward the second possibility.

After all, he shouldn't have the Chains of Heaven when he was a child.

[C: This image shows Gilgamesh carrying two swords, with two bangs hanging in front of his forehead, looking younger and more heroic than the previous Gilgamesh.]

Artoria: "Hm? So you can also use swords, King of Heroes?"

King of Heroes: "That goes without saying; I am proficient in all weapons."

Waver: "The King of Heroes in this picture looks younger than the King of Heroes in the previous video."

King of Heroes: "Ha, don't I look young now?"

Waver: "No, it's just a feeling."

King of Heroes: "A feeling, you say..."

After thinking about it, Gilgamesh brushes two strands of hair to the front as bangs, leaving Tokiomi Tohsaka and the others around him stunned.

[D: This image is of a stoic blonde twin-tailed woman; the armor on her lower body can be seen to be the same style as Gilgamesh's, but her appearance doesn't look like Gilgamesh at all.]

King of Heroes: "..."

King of Conquerors: "Hahaha, King of Heroes, this female version of you has a nice figure."

King of Heroes: "Mongrel, are you an idiot? This woman is clearly not me."

Kayneth: "Indeed, she doesn't look much like him."

Although the old Saber and the King of Knights from yesterday were of different genders, they were 90% similar in appearance, but this 'female Gilgamesh' doesn't look like Gilgamesh at all.

[E: This image shows Gilgamesh wearing a white headscarf, holding a clay tablet in his right hand and an axe in his left; from his appearance, he seems slightly older than Gilgamesh, but possesses more of a king's majesty.]

"Tch, it's this guy."

Gilgamesh wouldn't fail to recognize his older self.

However, although these two are clearly the same person at different ages, they seem like two different Heroic Spirits.

King of Conquerors: "King of Heroes, you really are multi-talented."

With a clay tablet in one hand and an axe in the other, he can't even tell if this is a Caster or a Berserker.

King of Heroes: "Hmph."

[F: The character in this last image is almost identical to the Gilgamesh in the video, but he's wearing very little.]

[All over his body, he is actually only wearing a black loincloth, with everything else being gold jewelry, as well as a black clover decoration on his forehead.]

"Ah!"

Several female group members immediately cover their eyes.

This image is too much of a shock for them.

Feng Xi: "Pfft! Gilgamesh, you have this kind of hobby too!"

King of Heroes: "Shut up, mongrel! This is absolutely not me!"

Although he often doesn't wear a shirt, he is definitely not exposed enough to not wear pants.

This exhibitionist in image F is definitely not him, Gilgamesh.

"What are you looking at!"

Seeing Rin Tohsaka looking at him with that look of seeing a pervert, Gilgamesh immediately jumps in anger.

This damn system, actually slandering someone's innocence out of thin air.
