Chapter 44

"This is... Imperial Privilege!"

Feng Xi pondered for a moment and finally knew what the First Emperor had done to Gilgamesh.

An irresistible command; is this not Imperial Privilege?

Although Imperial Privilege is known as the 'beggar's privilege' in games due to its lackluster effects, in the real world, it is absolutely a cheat-level divine skill.

Being able to acquire skills one does not originally possess and receiving the special favor of the world is a skill that is 'doing whatever one wants' in the true sense.

Even if the Emperor calls a deer a horse, it truly becomes a horse; this is the portrayal of Imperial Privilege.

Not every emperor has this skill; only those 'self-centered' emperors famous in history will awaken this skill.

As the first emperor in history and a famous dictatorial tyrant, it is not surprising at all that the First Emperor has the ability of Imperial Privilege.

Moreover, this is the First Emperor's Reality Marble, so the effect of Imperial Privilege is naturally stronger.

Coupled with the fact that Gilgamesh's Magic Resistance is only E, he was even more unable to resist the First Emperor's command.

However, even if Gilgamesh could resist, the First Emperor would use a Command Spell to order him.

Do not forget, the First Emperor has descended as a Ruler and possesses three skills granted by the Counter Force.

True Name Discernment, Revelation, and God's Resolution.

True Name Discernment allows for the ability to search for enemies that makes an Assassin's Presence Concealment ineffective.

Revelation allows him to see through the identities of all Servants directly.

God's Resolution allows him to exercise two Command Spells on each Servant.

Although Gilgamesh can resist the command of one Command Spell, with the addition of Imperial Privilege, he could only obediently follow the order.

"Damnable mongrel!"

After regaining control of his body, Gilgamesh immediately wanted to flip the table, but the system issued a warning directly in his mind.

[Warning: Group member King of Heroes, if you violate the system's rules again, the system will directly impose punishment.]

At the same moment, Gilgamesh felt a strong sense of crisis.

If he made a move, he would likely be sent back to the Throne of Heroes immediately.

Previously, because Bluebeard's offense was a first-time occurrence, the system only punished him slightly, but Gilgamesh was knowingly violating the rules, so the system would naturally not show mercy.

Although his heart was filled with rage, Gilgamesh still settled down out of fear.

Seeing that Gilgamesh had calmed down, everyone took their seats.

The Caster group, Saber group, and Berserker group sat on the left, while the Rider group, Lancer group, and Archer group sat on the right.

Hmm, it seems something is missing.

Although according to the rules, guests should all sit on the right, the First Emperor was not a person who followed rules.

And there was no one else here besides the First Emperor; if everyone sat on the right, it would look very strange.

"The hospitality is lacking, please excuse me, everyone."

Seeing that everyone had taken their seats, the First Emperor waved his hand, and various fine wines and delicacies appeared on the tables.

Chicken, duck, fish, and meat were all available, and melons, fruits, and vegetables were not lacking.

The wine cups were jue and yushang, the jars for wine were eagle-headed handles, the plates for dishes were dou, the bowls for eating were min, and the chopsticks for picking up food were zhu.

Each one highlighted a strong Chinese characteristic.

"Right, this is what a banquet should look like."

Iskandar started eating and drinking without any hesitation.

"Cough, cough, what kind of cheap goods are these."

Gilgamesh took a sip of wine and choked, coughing incessantly.

"Haha, isn't this wine quite good? Refreshing!"

Iskandar poured a bowl of wine and downed it in one go, appearing very satisfied.

The First Emperor brought out high-proof Chinese baijiu, which suited the taste of a rough person like Iskandar perfectly.

"You think so only because you don't know what real wine is."

Gilgamesh really couldn't get used to this baijiu and immediately took out a jar of fine wine from the Gate of Babylon.

"Watch closely, this is what is called the wine of kings."

After pouring himself a cup, Gilgamesh signaled for everyone to Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take some and taste it.

It was very clear that Gilgamesh was trying to regain some face.

The First Emperor did not care and directly called a Terracotta Warrior to Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take the wine jar and fill everyone's cups one by one.

"Oh, this wine is also not bad; the taste is excellent!"

Iskandar finished a bowl and immediately praised it.

"Hmm, it is indeed a rare fine wine."

The First Emperor also admitted that the wine was good.

"Whether it is swords or wine, there are only the best treasures in my treasury."

Gilgamesh immediately became proud again.

"Hmph, what is yours? This wine was clearly brewed by the gods."

Ishtar exposed him without any hesitation.

"Less chatter, it is mine now."

Gilgamesh retorted and continued: "In this way, whose stature as a king is higher or lower should be very clear, right?"

"Archer, although your wine is good, the Holy Grail and a wine cup are different."

Iskandar laughed: "Tell me your wish first."

"You are not qualified to order me, mongrel."

Gilgamesh snorted coldly: "And, the Holy Grail was originally my thing."

Iskandar asked curiously: "How so?"

Gilgamesh: "The roots of all treasures in the world can be traced back to my treasury, so as long as a treasure has appeared from ancient times to the present, it can be found in my treasury."

Iskandar: "So you already possess the Holy Grail!"

Gilgamesh: "I don't know."

Iskandar: "???"

"I have too many treasures; as long as it is a treasure, it must be my treasure."

Gilgamesh said in a deep voice: "To actually want to steal it from my treasury, you thief have quite some nerve."

Iskandar said with dissatisfaction: "As a king, why act like a miser?"

"Your words are almost no different from the ravings of Caster."

Artoria also expressed dissatisfaction with Gilgamesh's words.

More importantly, she did not believe Gilgamesh's words at all.

Because according to Gilgamesh's statement, wouldn't all of humanity have become people working for him?

"It seems we cannot reach a consensus."

Iskandar said solemnly: "As long as I want something, I will go and plunder it; that is my way as the King of Conquerors."

Gilgamesh snorted coldly: "Then there is no other way, we can only cross swords."
