I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

What to choose?

Should he follow his family's long-cherished wish, his father's legacy, and follow the path of others?

Or should you leave all that behind and go your own way?

To become what Gilgamesh calls a bastard?

Or be a real person who has found his direction?

I--

I should--

What am I going to do——

What on earth should I do?

Rin asked herself.

After taking a deep breath and emptying my mind, the answer emerged naturally, surprisingly simple.

"If I beat that guy, I'm going to punch him hard in the face and see if he can still laugh!" Rin said while waving his fist.

"Avenge Tokiomi?" Gilgamesh asked, still squinting his eyes.

"There is also this part of the reason, but more of it is that I want to do this. Every time I see his smiling face, I feel uncomfortable. What is gentle and polite, sunny and sensible, what is better than me, let me learn from him, ah ah ah Ah, it’s really annoying! It’s all just pretending, huh—especially when Sakura still likes him so much, and I’m obviously her sister, the biological sister of the same father and mother!”

At the end, Rin almost yelled. This rare release of her true nature made her extremely emotional.

"Humph, I admit it. Even though it contains ugly jealousy, it is much better than pretending to be elegant."

"Make no mistake, Archer, I have no intention of giving up on the Tohsaka family's long-cherished wish, and I will use my own methods to realize it."

Hearing these stubborn words, which even seemed to be concealed, Gilgamesh laughed happily, even more joyfully than when Shinji sang "I want to blow up the school".

"Very good, this is the answer I want to hear. The biggest difference between people and bastards is whether they actively join in or follow the crowd. Only then can they be qualified to use my power - feel happy, Rin, I intend to help you seriously. A helping hand.”

"That's what you said."

"A true king never breaks his promise."

"Where is the king... Is there a king like you who rides a motorcycle and stands on the wall?"

"Kingly style has nothing to do with posture. A true king doesn't care about other people's opinions."

"What I want to say is - aren't you tired of supporting the motorcycle and maintaining balance at the same time?"

"When you say that, it seems that..." Gilgamesh moved his body, "But that's not important. What's important is that I feel happy. During the last Holy Grail War, I, the Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows, and The King of Conquerors once had a racing competition, and when I find a suitable track, I will definitely ask her to compete again."

"Kings actually use motorcycles to win battles. The interest of you kings is really strange." Rin complained, "Is the conquering king you are talking about the Macedonian king who conquered Asia from Europe, Alexander the Great?"

"That's right. He is a thief recognized by this king, and he is also an opponent worthy of pulling out the treasure. He has carried out his royal way to the end."

When mentioning the King of Conquerors, Gilgamesh gave him enough respect, just like how he treated Scathach.

Rin asked: "By pulling out the treasure, does that mean you still resorted to force?"

"Of course, his kingly way is to plunder and conquer. He is targeting my treasure house, so I will naturally punish the thieves. However, I have promised him that no matter how many times, I will welcome him to challenge... What’s wrong, are you looking at me like this?”

"It's nothing, I just feel a little surprised that you also have this side."

"Everything in the world will be eclipsed in front of this king. Being able to realize this proves that you have grown."

As Gilgamesh spoke, he stroked his forehead proudly, and suddenly a golden light shone, almost blinding Rin's eyes.

"Ah, it's starting again. I'm a fool to think it's unexpected - huh? What is that?"

Rin, who didn't want to look at Gilgamesh anymore, turned his head and saw another strange scene - on the other side of the sky, even the stars were weak and the sky suddenly lit up. Although it was only for a short moment, Rin was sure that he That’s right.

Then a rumbling sound reached Rin's ears, and combined with the bright light he saw before, the answer was ready to come out.

"Thunder? But how could it happen in this season? Today's weather forecast didn't say it would rain. Could it be——"

"It was caused by the servant."

Archer has the best eyesight among all the intermediaries. Rin can only see an outline, but Gilgamesh can see more.

"That familiar feeling of ambition...it's unmistakable...let's go, Rin."

"Where to go?"

"Go and say hello to another old rival. Well, this distance is a bit insufficient for a motorcycle, so I'll use this."

The next moment——

In the messy playground, a huge Noble Phantasm appeared.

It looks like a ship, but also some kind of fish or flying insect, a flying battleship full of fantasy.

Its name is "Vimana", one of the Noble Phantasms owned by Gilgamesh, and a flying vehicle that soars across the sky in Indian mythology.

"Is this... a spaceship?" Rin murmured, "There are even such things."

"I won't give you any time to be surprised. Come up and set off immediately."

With that said, Gilgamesh put away the motorcycle and sat on the only golden throne in the center of the battleship.

At the same time, wind blew up around the battleship. It was unknown whether it was the function of the battleship itself or some other Noble Phantasm.

The wind blew over Rin's body and brought her to the back of the battleship. Before she could stand firm, the golden ship flew into the sky at an astonishing speed.

The surface of the golden spaceship was very smooth, with no railings or handholds. Rin was almost thrown out due to inertia. Fortunately, she had practiced "Bajiquan" since she was a child and instinctively stabilized her lower body, which saved the day.

"You, you, you, you, you, do you want to throw me to death!" Rin complained loudly when she came back to her senses.

"Your reaction was too slow." Gilgamesh said nonchalantly, "Tokiomi did much better back then. When I was fighting with the enemy in the air, he was always calm."

When she mentioned her father, Rin was speechless.

Gilgamesh continued: "Adjust your state as soon as possible, and the enemy will attack soon."

Although she was dissatisfied with Gilgamesh's actions, Rin still followed his instructions, adjusted her pace and breathing as quickly as possible, and applied protective magic and balance magic.

Soon, the attack really came.

The violent winds, the thunder and lightning striking in the sky, and the flying monsters with no flesh and blood, only bones left.

However, none of these caused damage to the spacecraft. Gilgamesh deployed more than ten kinds of defensive treasures around the spacecraft, perfectly deflecting and shooting down all attacks.

When the last flying monster was crushed, the King of Heroes left his throne and walked towards the bow of the ship with proud steps.

At the same time, the spacecraft began to land slowly. It was only then that Rin, who had no experience in air combat, could clearly see the surrounding environment.

This is a forest on the outskirts of Fuyuki City. A bonfire was raised in the forest, and several tents were set up nearby. It looked like a camping site.

In the center of the camp, there were several people standing, including men and women, middle-aged people and young people. The most eye-catching one was a giant man wearing a red cloak and possessing overwhelming size and muscles.

He looked at Gilgamesh with the same oppressive, rude gaze. The latter was not only lifeless, but looked at it with perfect majesty.

"Are you ready to challenge this king again? King of Conqueror."
